Chapter 1033 I've never really integrated into this place.
Chapter 1033 I've never really integrated into this place.
Su Zhenzhen suddenly realized that she was probably the only one who was passive.
She sat quietly in her seat.
The secretary came in to inform Su Zhenzhen that there was a meeting, and only then did she enter the non-stop meeting.
The meeting ended at 10 p.m.
Looking at the capital, it was brightly lit, but there were far fewer cars than usual.
Most people have already begun to leave the capital and return to their hometowns.
This was the first time she had felt lonely in the capital.
Because Su Zhenzhen knew very well that she had never truly integrated into this place.
She didn't even succeed with the Zhou family.
She thought of what Su Yuming had said to her before they got married.
Everyone was against it, but she went against it without hesitation.
Looking back now, I realize that what my elders said was based on their own experience.
It's better to find someone who's easy to control than to make a mess of things now.
She sighed before leaving the office.
She drove back to the villa, and Zhou Jingyan's car happened to be parked in the underground garage.
The two met for the first time after the annual meeting.
They looked at each other, but remained calm.
Su Zhenzhen glanced at the time and realized that Zhou Jingyan's flight was probably in the morning and back in the evening.
That's why this spot appears inside the villa.
Indeed, with the year drawing to a close, Zhou Jingyan's work schedule is very tight.
Su Zhenzhen saw this short business trip on Zhou Jingyan's itinerary.
He Chen would still send Su Zhenzhen Zhou Jingyan's schedule, but if the schedule changed, Su Zhenzhen wouldn't know.
She couldn't possibly ask He Chen about every single detail.
He Chen wouldn't tell him every little detail.
In this situation, neither of them took the initiative to break the silence, which did make the atmosphere somewhat awkward.
After a moment of contemplation, Su Zhenzhen looked at Zhou Jingyan.
Because she was going back to Jiangzhou, she still had to take the initiative to speak.
"Is there something you need?" Zhou Jingyan unexpectedly spoke up.
Su Zhenzhen nodded: "There's something I want to tell you."
"Go on," Zhou Jingyan said succinctly as always.
The two did not stand very close, and because of what had happened before, they even seemed somewhat distant now.
Su Zhenzhen didn't waste any time and said calmly, "Mom called me directly and said that she and Dad are going to Vancouver for the Chinese New Year and that I should make my own arrangements."
She paused for a moment, then said, "So I'm thinking of going back to Jiangzhou for the New Year. I think I should discuss this with you and change it. I wonder what your thoughts are."
Even when speaking to Zhou Jingyan, Su Zhenzhen maintained a businesslike attitude.
Zhou Jingyan couldn't say whether she was happy or unhappy.
He just listened quietly and didn't answer Su Zhenzhen's question immediately.
Su Zhenzhen watched calmly without urging anyone.
"Do you want to go back to Jiangzhou for the New Year?" Zhou Jingyan asked.
“Yes. If my parents were in the capital, I would naturally spend the New Year at home. But my parents went to Vancouver, and they agreed to let me go to Jiangzhou, so I don’t think there’s anything wrong with it,” Su Zhenzhen finished speaking.
We are no longer living in an era of feudal ethics.
Where we spend the Chinese New Year is no longer important.
However, for a family like the Zhou family, it's natural to say things upfront to avoid unnecessary trouble.
We must not give anyone a reason to criticize us.
Zhou Jingyan nodded: "Okay."
This means they agreed.
However, Zhou Jingyan did not mention that he would go back to Jiangzhou with Su Zhenzhen.
Zhou Jingyan is probably still unhappy about what happened at the previous annual meeting.
Su Zhenzhen also felt wronged.
After all, she didn't do it, but Zhou Jingyan clearly didn't believe her.
However, Su Zhenzhen would not compromise, because compromising would mean admitting that she had a problem.
Thinking about it, Su Zhenzhen felt even more awkward.
“Okay, then I’ll go back to Jiangzhou,” Su Zhenzhen replied.
She didn't say anything after that, turned around and walked into the villa, looking rather indifferent.
The moment Su Zhenzhen turned around, she was suddenly grabbed by Zhou Jingyan.
"What's wrong?" She looked at Zhou Jingyan calmly.
Zhou Jingyan didn't speak immediately, he just looked at him for a long time before asking, "Are you planning to go back alone?"
“I didn’t know about your plans. You didn’t tell me, and He Chen didn’t send them to me either.” Su Zhenzhen remained calm. “Because it was quite unexpected for Mom and Dad to go to Vancouver, normally we would spend the New Year in the capital. So now I don’t know if you have other plans. If you do, I can’t stop you.”
If it's also very frank, you can't find any drawbacks.
We're all adults; we know how to speak tactfully.
Besides, they are all people who came from the corrupt world of the wealthy.
"You don't want me to go to Jiangzhou?" Zhou Jingyan asked casually.
Su Zhenzhen paused for a moment, then understood the meaning behind Zhou Jingyan's words.
This person gave himself a way out.
You have to take the initiative and ask the question yourself.
Therefore, Su Zhenzhen wouldn't refuse to give face in this situation.
After all, she and Zhou Jingyan really had a falling out, and the one who was happy was An Nai.
How could she give Anna such an opportunity?
No matter how things end up between her and Zhou Jingyan, she would never give such an opportunity to someone who is simply disgusting to her.
She looked at Zhou Jingyan innocently and said, "I hope so. We're husband and wife, so it would be best if we went back together. But I don't know what your plans are, and I don't want to disrupt your original schedule."
She can also say very eloquent things.
This can be considered as giving each other a way out.
Zhou Jingyan readily accepted the offer from Su Zhenzhen: "Then let's go back to Jiangzhou together."
“Okay, I’ll tell my parents.” Su Zhenzhen nodded.
Zhou Jingyan didn't say anything.
Then Zhou Jingyan looked down at Su Zhenzhen and took her hand in his.
Su Zhenzhen's fingers curled up subconsciously, but she didn't resist in the end.
The two walked quietly into the villa.
The housekeeper saw the two of them walk in and immediately stepped forward: "Mr. Zhou, Madam, you're back? Would you like some late-night snacks?"
"Go and rest," Su Zhenzhen said calmly.
The butler nodded in acknowledgment and then turned and left.
The living room became quiet, with only Su Zhenzhen and Zhou Jingyan remaining.
"Have you finished eating?" Zhou Jingyan asked casually.
"I've eaten a little. I'll cook some noodles later," Su Zhenzhen replied.
“Okay, you go remove your makeup, I’ll take care of it.” Zhou Jingyan said calmly.
"Okay." Su Zhenzhen did not object.
Soon, Su Zhenzhen went to the master bedroom.
Zhou Jingyan naturally took off his suit jacket and put it aside.
When Su Zhenzhen saw it, she instinctively took it to treat it.
Zhou Jingyan saw this but remained expressionless.
He quickly took some food from the refrigerator and prepared to cook noodles.
Su Zhenzhen didn't dawdle; she removed her makeup, took a shower, and went downstairs.
Just then, Zhou Jingyan finished cooking the noodles.
The two ate quietly at the dining table.
"What are your plans for the Spring Festival?" This time, it was Zhou Jingyan who took the initiative to ask.
