Even as a "normie," I'm completely oblivious to it.

"I'm coming!"

Lunch is important, I'll let you off the hook for now, you little cat!

We'll settle the score later!

2. Undeniable

There was more laughter and joy at the dinner table than usual today.

Zixiao has been especially happy lately.

As for the reason... it's just like what she's saying now.

"Haha... It feels like our family has returned to how it was when we were little, all together and happy. That's great. My brother no longer has to feel sad because of Mom. Sigh... It's not just me, it's also solved a big problem for Yuche."

"Zixiao... well, let's not talk about how Mom's coming back will affect me... I feel like life won't be much different. At least, Mom is back in charge of the company, that's for sure. Yuche said she can spend four hours less in the office every day! Her workload has been drastically reduced!"

"Sister Yuche is so happy now," Yun'er said with a smile. "She told me the other day that she wants to gradually hand over all the things in the company to Aunt Qiuyun, and then she can move into the apartment and live with us."

Yu Zhe thought for a moment and then responded.

"This... doesn't seem really necessary. After Xiao Ruoke and the others release their college entrance exam results, I should gradually return to the management of the Su family. I can't just push everything onto my parents... It's true that they can still manage for a few more years, but in the end, we still have to take the lead. Being playful all the time is not a good thing. Being lazy will lead to mistakes. Even Sister Ye has started to work harder and harder in the Qi family."

“That’s true…” “Agreed.”

Zixiao and Yun'er both agreed with this view.

Having her mother come home will indeed greatly reduce Yuche's stress.

However... Yu Zhe originally planned to take over the management of the Su family again after graduating from high school.

There's no need to rush this now, but that doesn't mean we can just indulge in pleasure. It's not a good thing to be immersed in happiness and not strive for progress.

Especially Yu Zhe!

If he doesn't find something to do, his body will soon be pushed to the brink of collapse!

Waaah, Yu Zhe is indulging in too much pleasure; he must learn to restrain himself.

Speaking of this...

Zixiao scooped up a spoonful of the matsutake and chicken soup she had just made, recalling the events of the past few days.

"When Mom came back, it really caused a huge uproar. The upper management of the company were just a little surprised, but the employees were like they had seen a ghost. I can understand them... it really is quite magical."

"death"

"A resurrection, a business miracle!"

"No... Yun'er, this is not just a business miracle, to those who don't know the truth, it's just magical."

Yu Zhe couldn't help but laugh whenever he thought about it.

A few days ago, my mother returned to the company and was reinstated as a director, which really scared the long-time employees who had worked there for nearly twenty years.

The mother explained that it was all a misunderstanding from beginning to end. She had never died; she had simply gone on a "short" long vacation without telling anyone, and everyone mistakenly thought she was dead.

Please... who would believe that?!

After all, back then, with the help of Aunt Xiaota, the entire process of my mother's death was very clear.

However, Mom didn't bother to explain the issue further.

She wouldn't disturb Xiaota's peace; the past didn't need further explanation.

Yun'er let out a soft breath and blew on the soup in the spoon to cool it down.

"Phew... This matter seems much simpler than I imagined... None of the Su family members who split up objected to Aunt Qiuyun's re-involvement in the Su Group's affairs. Didn't Aunt Qiuyun previously estimate that there might still be a debate? But she came back with almost no resistance. Will there be any other unexpected problems later?"

Yun'er had absolutely no trust in the division of the large family.

After all, her childhood was ruined by these selfish, scheming forces.

Yu Zhe shook his head gently and smiled, "No, no~ This time it really won't happen. It can only be said that times have changed. Think about the past and think about the present. Yu Che and I already have a lot of influence in the Su family. If those branch families are smart, they will definitely choose to keep quiet at this time. Anyone who jumps out to oppose at this time will only suffer a bloody head and be used as a warning to others."

"The situation within the family has changed... all thanks to my brother and Yu Che..."

"Your encouragement is indispensable!"

Yu Zhe patted Zi Xiao's head with satisfaction, liking her more and more the more he touched her.

Zixiao squinted her eyes, savoring this moment of tenderness.

Sudden...

She seemed to have remembered something quite important.

"Um...speaking of which, brother, did you go to the company yesterday?"

"...!"

Didn't we agree last night not to mention this?

Yu Zhe stiffened his body and slowly moved his hand down from the back of Zi Xiao's head.

Yun'er didn't want to ask this question at first, but her curiosity was piqued.

"That's right, Brother Yuzhe, you were still rushing to the company around 7 pm last night, when everyone had already left work, right?"

"Cough...didn't I say it yesterday? Our vacation just ended, and the pile of work documents at the company is as high as a small mountain! Yu Che and Mom alone can't handle it all, so I went over to help out a little!"

"Is that so..." Zixiao expressed doubt. "Brother didn't get back until almost midnight... You said that if you work past ten o'clock, it's a failure in life, right?"

"I did say that! But...!"

"Stare..." "Stare..."

You two, stop staring at me like that!

In fact, whether Yu Zhe was lying or not, and to what extent he was lying, was something that Zi Xiao and Yun'er could tell at a glance long ago.

Every unnatural flicker of light and every unnatural little movement in Yu Zhe's eyes was unmistakable to them.

It's obvious that Yu Zhe was lying when he said that!

Tell me! What were you doing at the company so late at night?

Does Yu Zhe dare to say it?

Waaah, because the truth is quite tragic.

First of all, Yu Zhe wasn't lying about one thing: when everyone returned from their vacation, the pile of work documents in the company was indeed as big as a small mountain.

Yu Che usually gets off work at 6 pm, but this time, at 7 pm, she has a feeling that she won't be able to finish this work even if she works for several more hours!

Yu Che, I hate working overtime the most!

She needs power! She's just giving up!

So, at seven o'clock, Yu Che immediately threw down the documents in his hand and called Yu Zhe.

The general idea is that you need to replenish your energy promptly!

Yu Zhe will definitely fulfill her small request!

Upon receiving the order, Lu Ling and Lu Yao took him and rushed to the company that very night.

At first, Yu Zhe thought that Yu Che, like before, just wanted him to help her organize the documents, at most holding her in his arms and giving her the strength to organize the documents.

But... once we got there, we found that things weren't so simple.

Will Yu Che, who just tasted Yu Zhe's "flavor" a few days ago, be as well-behaved as before?

That's definitely not the case.

Yu Che sat in her boss's chair, her short legs barely touching the ground. She pressed a button, and the curtains of all the floor-to-ceiling windows in her office were drawn shut, instantly creating a wonderful atmosphere in the office.

In short, anything is suitable except work.

Then... Yu Che took out the "chewing gum box" she needed to replenish her energy.

Yu Che had always felt that the sofa in her office was too big and looked out of place, with no use for it at all.

Now! She thinks this sofa smells really good!

Yu Zhe wanted to run, but he couldn't.

The battlefield is right here in the office!

This isn't about replenishing energy!

This is clearly just wasting energy!

Fortunately.

Yu Che surrendered very quickly this time.

The battle had only lasted until about 9:30 when Yu Che tearfully admitted defeat and begged for mercy.

After all... she was doing something different in her usual workplace, and that sense of novelty was very exciting.

Furthermore... she hadn't been hugged by Yu Zhe for several days, and she was longing for it.

Over-sensitivity leads to hypersensitivity of the senses, what's wrong with that?

Even though he had clearly admitted defeat... this guy still nuzzled his little head against Yu Zhe's chest and made a deal that was somewhat unreasonable, yet also quite reasonable.

Yu Zhe comes over at least once a week!

They call it "regularly replenishing energy!"

Yu Che even felt that she was very kind and had taken great care of Yu Zhe's health!

You're both incompetent and unskilled!

In the end, Yu Zhe reluctantly agreed...

I also helped her organize the documents. The two of us worked together until after midnight before finally finishing the task.

So... by the time Yu Zhe got home, it was already past midnight.

That's roughly what happened.

...................

Finally, under the combined pressure and relentless questioning of Zixiao and Yun'er, Yuzhe confessed the truth.

Zi Xiaoyun and her friend exchanged a glance, seemingly sharing a subtle understanding.
