342: Chapter 342 Han Su's Carefree Spirit
That night, Chen Cheng slept very soundly. He slept for a long time and didn't wake up until noon the next day.
He reached out to feel the space beside him, but found no one there, so he slowly opened his eyes.
He got up, put on a bathrobe, and walked out of the room.
Seeing Ye Zhenzhen busy in the kitchen, a bright smile curled at the corners of his mouth.
He walked over and wrapped his arms around her slender waist from behind.
"Why didn't you wake me?"
"You were sleeping like a little pig; how could I wake you up?"
Chen Cheng sniffed the air. "What are you cooking? Why is there a smell of Chinese medicine?"
Ye Zhenzhen lifted the pot lid, and Chen Cheng was instantly stunned.
He recognized the ginseng. "What on earth is all this? Where are you feeling unwell?"
A mischievous smile played on Ye Zhenzhen's lips. "It's not for me."
"I'm afraid you'll actually die on a woman's bed one day, so I'm giving you a boost."
"Look, chicken, duck, soft-shell turtle, goose, pig tripe, pork ribs, red dates, winter bamboo shoots, Atractylodes, Poria, Codonopsis, Astragalus, White Peony, Prepared Rehmannia..."
"Ten-Essential Tonic Soup~"
Chen Cheng's eyes widened. "Are you crazy? You've already felt how fierce my firepower is."
Ye Zhenzhen's pretty face flushed, and she gave a coy cry, "Your firepower is fierce now, but what about later?"
"At the rate you're going, I'm really afraid I'll be a widow by the time I'm forty."
Chen Cheng: "..."
Forget it, he wouldn't argue with her since her intentions were good.
However, he had to give her a lesson to remember.
"Ah~ are you crazy? In broad daylight..."
Before long, accompanied by the gurgling bubbles of the tonic soup boiling in the pot, muffled groans were hidden in between.
After eating the Ten-Essential Tonic Soup, Chen Cheng left feeling refreshed.
The pots and bowls were left for Ye Zhenzhen to clean up after she woke up.
Ye Zhenzhen lay on the bed, looking at the tissues in the trash can and muttering, "My worry was really a bit redundant; he's just like a donkey from a production brigade..."
Ye Zhenzhen took a few deep breaths, reached out, and picked up a tissue from the trash can to observe it seriously.
"The color and density are both very good," she raised an eyebrow. "I really wasted my worry on this beast; now I can't go to the lab again today."
After muttering a few more times, Ye Zhenzhen fell asleep clutching her pillow.
Chen Cheng had told her several times not to sleep on her stomach as it would flatten her chest, but she wouldn't listen.
So, Chen Cheng had to work hard to give her more massages.
After leaving Ode to Joy, Chen Cheng took out his phone and sent a message directly to Han Su.
【Cheng: I have something to tell you.】
【Susu: What?】
【Cheng: Actually, I have many girlfriends.】
【Susu: Oh, I see.】
Chen Cheng was stunned. Was she really this calm?
After thinking about it, he immediately had Zou Yu arrange a flight to Hong Kong.
By evening, Chen Cheng arrived in Hong Kong with Eleven and Chen Guosheng.
Han Su appeared very calm.
She said that not long after Chen Cheng flew away last time, she had already thought about the fact that Chen Cheng would have a flock of women around him.
Although she had lost some romance, she really liked her current life.
Big companies were approaching her to be their legal counsel, and senior lawyers were taking her to various business events.
After a busy day of work, she would drive her ferrari, feel the sea breeze of Victoria Harbour, return to her Mid-Levels luxury mansion, sit on the terrace to watch the stars, and have a little drink to relax.
Han Su also told him happily, "Do you know? Lawyer Hu told me that my promotion to senior partner at the end of the year has already been confirmed."
"I know a lot of this is because of your connections, but I'm still very happy."
"No one in business is a fool. If they choose me, it shows that I can solve their problems."
"I'll soon be the youngest senior partner, heehee~~"
Seeing her smile so freely, Chen Cheng even felt a bit of heartache for her.
He immediately had Aks give the legal contract for Zhencheng Hong Kong for next year to Han Su.
The next day, Chen Cheng returned to Shanghai.
Han Su saw him off at the airport and told him, "If you miss me, come to Hong Kong Island to see me; or you can buy me a ticket and let me fly over."
Chen Cheng was almost moved to tears.
What an understanding white moonlight.
There was another thing that surprised Chen Cheng.
After He Zhinan rejected Gao Peng's proposal, she actually stayed in Hong Kong and found a job.
She was now living in the apartment Han Su had rented.
She also frequently stayed with Han Su in the apartment Chen Cheng had rented.
Chen Cheng returned to Shanghai and stayed at Fuxing Road.
Regarding Han Su, he could choose to come clean directly because he knew her career ambition was far more important to her than men.
But regarding Qiao Jingjing, he hesitated.
He planned to wait until he had maxed out her favorability through intimacy before saying anything.
"The aunt is here," Zou Yu walked into the study to remind Chen Cheng, who was typing code at his computer.
Chen Cheng looked up at her. "Okay, I'll be right down."
Chen Cheng had previously asked Li Na to find him a full-time nanny, and it took a few days to find a suitable one.
The interview was scheduled for today.
It was said that she had worked as a cleaner in star-rated hotels for many years and was very experienced in cleaning.
Chen Cheng's main requirement was to clean several of his houses.
As for cooking, as long as the home-style food was good, she didn't need to know how to prepare delicacies.
He would only occasionally eat a meal prepared by the nanny.
Zou Yu had personally conducted a background check, and the feedback from this aunt's colleagues and neighbors was all positive.
Only then was she invited for an interview with Chen Cheng.
Chen Cheng went downstairs into the living room and immediately noticed that the woman who had come for the interview looked very familiar.
After searching through his memory, he realized who she was.
Seeing Chen Cheng walk over, the middle-aged woman stood up somewhat nervously.
From Zou Yu's professional suit, her demeanor as a secretary, and this Old Western-style house, she could tell that the owner of this home was extraordinary.
Chen Cheng smiled. "Auntie, please sit."
"Ah~" She responded with a smile and slowly sat on the sofa, beginning her self-introduction:
"Hello, sir. My name is Qiu Changxia, and I'm exactly fifty this year."
Chen Cheng was momentarily speechless; the person in front of him was indeed Sun Yiqiu's mother from Ordinary Glory.
In the original show, she was a minor character with very little screen time and didn't even have a name.
But she was actually named Qiu Changxia here.
It was obvious that the screenwriter had taken the easy way out; the surname was taken from Sun Yiqiu's name, and the given name was directly lifted from Ren Changxia.
Chen Cheng smiled. "Aunt Qiu, my name is Chen Cheng. You can just call me by my name."
"Oh, that wouldn't be right. I'll call you Mr. Chen."
Chen Cheng's lips curled slightly. He didn't dwell on the issue and instead asked, "Aunt Qiu, how is your health?"
Aunt Qiu took a folder out of her bag and placed it on the coffee table. "This is my physical examination report from this year; I just had it checked a few months ago."
"I have a bit of rheumatism, and some physiological indicators aren't that healthy. As you know, at my age, I definitely can't compare with you young people."
"But rest assured, I certainly have no major illnesses, and definitely no infectious diseases."
Chen Cheng used his cheat to take a glance, and it was pretty much as she said.
"Did Zou Yu tell you about my requirements?"
