Chapter 88 He's Back Home

When Chi Cheng received the call from the psychiatrist, he was in a meeting in the company. When he heard that Chi Shen did not go to the hospital, he immediately called Chi Shen, but no one answered.

The more he thought about it, the more flustered he became, so he simply asked his secretary to book a plane ticket for him.

"Maybe I just didn't look at the phone, Dong Chi doesn't need to be so nervous." The secretary comforted.

Chi Cheng frowned: "In the past few years he has been abroad, he has not missed my call once, but this time suddenly the hospital does not answer the phone, there must be something wrong, no, I have to go and see."

Seeing that he was so worried, the secretary had to book the nearest air ticket, and Chi Cheng immediately took the documents and went to the airport.

After a night's flight to the place where Chi Shen was, Chi Cheng first went to the newly rented apartment to look around, and then went to the school. After learning that Chi Shen had not been to school for three days, he was in a hurry to report After the police, asked friends from abroad to help me find it.

After searching for a day in a row, he went back to the apartment to look for it, but he still didn't see Chi Shen.

Chi Cheng was so worried that he was going crazy. He searched each room several times, but in the end no one could find it. Instead, he found a photo under his pillow.

It is a news map downloaded from the Internet.

Chi Cheng was stunned for a while, and quickly called Qiao Zhen Zhen.

Beep...beep...two beeps, finally connected.

"Zhen Zhen, are you in school now?" he asked hurriedly.

It was night at the same time in China, Qiao Zhenzhen's voice was a little confused: "Yes, here, what's wrong, Grandpa?"

"I just wanted to ask you, have you ever seen..."

Before Chi Cheng finished speaking, there was a sound from the door, he rushed out immediately, and saw Chi Shen coming back from the outside with his eyes down, the gauze on his hands was stained with blood, and the blisters on his arms were broken. , Part of the skin is red, swollen and pus, which looks very serious.

"grandfather?"

Qiao Zhenzhen's voice came from the receiver, Chi Cheng suddenly returned to his senses: "...It's okay, it's okay."

"Did something happen to Chi Shen?" Qiao Zhenzhen's voice was suddenly solemn.

"No, no, it's me who was hysterical in a dream, so I'll delay your rest." Chi Cheng was vague and perfunctory. After she believed it, he hung up the phone and strode towards Chi Shen, "Where have you been?"

Chi Shen was silent.

"I asked where you went!" Chi Cheng was rarely angry.

Chi Shen pursed his lips, bowed his head and apologized: "I'm sorry."

"Explain to me what's going on." Chi Cheng said, taking the photo on him.

Chi Shen caught it, and as soon as he lowered his eyes, he looked at the smiling eyes in the photo. After a long silence, he looked up at Chi Cheng: "Grandpa, I want to go back to China."

Chi Cheng's eyes were sore, but his tone was still firm: "No, I can't go back until I get cured."

Chi Shen was silent for a moment, then suddenly shredded the photo with a blank expression.

Chi Cheng was stunned, but didn't react for a while.

"I'll treat it well in the future," he said hoarsely.

Chi Cheng: "You are... Forget it, go to the hospital first and treat the wound. We will talk about the treatment later."

Chi Shen nodded and followed him obediently.

After this day, Chi Shen suddenly became interested in the content of psychology, and gradually he was willing to cooperate with the doctor's treatment. In addition to treatment and classes, he usually spends most of his time in the library. Read all the psychology books in the library.

His behavioral responses have become more and more normal, and his social skills have improved a lot. After receiving the treatment for his throat, he has gradually begun to communicate with people normally, and occasionally speaks long sentences. Everything seems to be developing in a good direction. .

When the psychiatrist called Chi Cheng recently, it was rare that he was not as anxious and careful as before, Chi Cheng was also very happy, he turned around and shared the good news with his old friend Qin Sheng, and Qiao Zhenzhen naturally knew it after a long time.

Qiao Zhenzhen was very happy about Chi Shen's gradual improvement, and at the same time gradually accepted the fact that once he recovered, he would no longer love her, and only concentrated on collecting favor points for him.

After her junior year, Qiao Zhenzhen did not choose to go to graduate school, but began to participate in internships.

For her first internship, she chose her own company. When she found that everyone in the Qin family was cautious and had difficulty developing a favorable impression of her, she left decisively. After hearing that she resigned, Chi Cheng invited her to come to Chi's, but after thinking about the result, she finally refused and chose to open a short video studio by herself.

In the early days of her business, Mo Chu was just in her third year, but she still helped her a lot. At that time, she was 23 years old, and the 21-year-old Mo Chu had already shown her commercial talents and helped her gain the first pot of gold. She also gained goodwill from all directions through the release of short videos. Qiao Zhenzhen only The reminder system can be turned off again and changed to a weekly report.

Although the favorability value rose slowly, it finally kept up with the passage of time. Qiao Zhenzhen was grateful to Mo Chu, and simply gave him one-third of the shares and gave him dividends every month.

"Senior sister, you don't need to be so polite, I'm just going to help." Mo Chu looked ashamed.

Qiao Zhen Zhen gave him a sideways look: "If it wasn't for your help, my studio wouldn't be so smooth, so just keep it."

"But one third is too much." Mo Chu sighed.

Qiao Zhenzhen smiled: "If it wasn't for the fear that you wouldn't want it, I would like to give you half of it."

"Then can you still make money?"

"I don't care about money." Qiao Zhen Zhen raised her lips.

Mo Chu snorted, and after thinking about it, he accepted it: "Okay, I just graduated and planned to start a business, so I just used this as start-up capital, thank you, senior."

Qiao Zhenzhen was stunned for a moment: "Aren't you going to work at Chi's?"

"Chi's?" Mo Chu looked puzzled, "How do you know that I want to go to that company, have I told you before?"

Realizing that she had missed out, Qiao Zhen Zhen smiled awkwardly.

Mo Chu didn't take it seriously. Hearing that, he shook his head: "I wanted to go, but I was inspired by my senior. After thinking about it, I decided to give myself a little challenge, so I'm ready to start my own business."

Qiao Zhen Zhen stared at him in a daze, and suddenly smiled after a long time.

Destiny is really full of butterfly effects. When the wind on the west coast changes a little, their world will undergo a big change, and everyone's life will be deviated from the track and become fresh and warm again. Although don't know what the final result will be, it's better than living in nothingness along the lines of the original text.

"Well, come on then." Qiao Zhen Zhen smiled and wished.

Mo Chu raised his lips, revealing neat little white teeth.

In the blink of an eye, it was a new year, Mo Chu started a new career, Qiao Zhenzhen also moved her studio to S City, she was so busy every day that she didn't even have time to make a phone call at home, when she heard that her grandfather was sick When the news came, my grandfather had been hospitalized for several days.

She was surprised that she had been neglected by her family in recent years, and immediately gave the whole company a holiday, leaving only a few local employees in S City to regularly post videos of the past every day, and the rest went back to their respective homes, with enough time to go home for the New Year. .

When she got home, Qin Sheng had already been discharged from the hospital. Seeing her suddenly come back, he immediately lowered his face: "Why did you come back suddenly?"

"I haven't heard that you fell," Qiao Zhenzhen help him helplessly, "I'm already a lot of age, how can you be reckless and don't look at it when you walk."

"I didn't mean to," Qin Sheng snorted coldly, and then asked, "How long will you be here this time?"

"I gave the company a month off, how long do you think I'll stay?" Qiao Zhenzhen smiled.

Qin Sheng stared: "The short video market is changing fast and the competition is big. You are on vacation for a month, aren't you afraid that you will be eliminated when you go back?!"

"Don't worry, there are backup materials that I recorded before, and besides, my studio is on a high-quality line, so it's normal not to update in a short period of time," Qiao Zhenzhen said, her mouth sweetened again, "What if I'm eliminated? The big deal is to go home and inherit the family business.”

"No promise." Qin Sheng scolded, but the corners of his mouth couldn't help but rise.

After Qiao Zhenzhen came home, the house became lively in an instant, everyone's face was full of lightness and joy, and Qiao Zhenzhen was the same, but every time she encountered Qin Sheng and her relatives urging her to marry, she had the urge to run away.

She is 25 years old after the new year, and she has not seen Chi Shen for more than six years. It is very calm to mention it occasionally. Everyone thinks that her lovelorn period has passed. Chi Cheng probably thinks the same way. With the improvement of Chi Shen in the past two years, he occasionally does not avoid Chi Shen when videoing with her, but she and Chi Shen have not met or spoken to each other.

Everyone has come out, getting along more and more naturally, no longer as cautious as before.

It's good... but the urging of marriage is really annoying.

"You're 25, don't just focus on your career, you have to worry about marriage matters, you know?" Qin Sheng said.

Qiao Zhen Zhen sighed: "I'm not the only single person in the family, how can you catch me all alone?"

As soon as she finished speaking, she received two eye knives from the dining table, and she immediately looked innocent.

Qin Sheng didn't bother to look at the two over there: "one of them is divorced with a baby, and the other is mentally ill. What do you compare to them?"

"Grandpa, you are quite foreign, you know that when you are divorced and have a baby." Qiao Zhenzhen laughed.

"Why is my brain sick?" Qin Zhao protested in a low voice.

Qin Sheng immediately gave him a sideways look: "If you don't get married, don't have children, you still say that you're not sick?"

The corners of Qin Zhao's mouth twitched, but he wisely didn't talk back.

Qin Sheng snorted, and was about to continue training Qiao Zhenzhen when Qin Jing came out to make a relief: "Okay Dad, today is New Year's Eve, don't talk about her."

"Yes, yes, don't talk about me." Qiao Zhen Zhen said quickly.

Qin Sheng gave her a sideways glance: "you will leave after the new year. If I don't take this opportunity to say it, when can I say it?"

This is the meaning of not going to stop, Qiao Zhenzhen was crying and was worried that she didn't know how to escape when the phone rang suddenly, she hurriedly took it and ran away, and didn't answer the phone until she was in the yard.

"Senior sister." Mo Chu's voice came from crying.

Qiao Zhen Zhen paused: "What's wrong?"

"Have you returned to City A?" he asked.

Qiao Zhen Zhen responded: "I'm back."

"Then can you come pick me up? I don't want to spend the new year outside today." Mo Chu sighed.

Qiao Zhen Zhen heard that he was in a wrong mood, and agreed without thinking too much. After hanging up the phone, she turned her head back to the house and took her coat.

"Where?" Qin Jing asked.

"Take Mo Chu," Qiao Zhen Zhen shrugged, "He has nowhere to go today, so he wants to come to our house for Chinese New Year."

He has had a good relationship with Mo Chu in the past few years, and his company is in City A again. Every time she comes back, she will gather together, and the family members who come and go have seen him.

Hearing that it was Mo Chu, Qin Jing immediately smiled: "Go ahead."

"Well, let's go." Qiao Zhen Zhen said and left.

As soon as she left, Qin Sheng immediately came over: "Is that the kid last time?"

"Yes, I'll buy you the milk one." Qin Jing replied.

Qin Sheng nodded: "that child is good and has a good personality. I like it very much."

"It's a pity that Zhen Zhen doesn't like it, that kid has nothing to do with Zhen Zhen, I heard that he had a girlfriend some time ago." Qin Jing sighed, obviously feeling a pity from the bottom of her heart. Out of intuition as a parent, she always felt that Mo Chu was the most suitable son-in-law.

Qiao Zhenzhen, who didn't know what Qin Jing was thinking, took a taxi to Mo Chu's hotel. Mo Chu couldn't help but complain when he saw her: "Can't you take a driver's license test?"

"There's no time for the test," Qiao Zhenzhen gave him a sideways look, "get in the car."

Mo Chu decisively followed and got into the car.

On the way to Qin's house, he told what happened to him. In short, he was cheated out of the company by his girlfriend and brother. A miserable word is not enough to describe him at the moment.

"My dad has been bragging about how good I am with us all day. Now that I have nothing, I have no face to go back." Mo Chu sighed again, but there was not much depression.

Qiao Zhenzhen expressed sympathy and made a request: "Don't tell my family that you are single."

Mo Chu heard Xianzhi Yayi: "You were urged to marry again?"

Qiao Zhen Zhen sighed and did not speak.

"By the way, you told me a few years ago that you have a boyfriend, but I haven't seen it until now, and your family doesn't know whether you have one or not, isn't it just imaginary?" Mo Chu Doubt.

"It used to be, but now..." Qiao Zhenzhen pursed her lips, "It's been too long, I don't know if there's any."

Mo Chu paused and expressed sympathy for her: "you don't know it yourself, there are nine out of ten."

The two of them looked at each other, only to feel that everyone was miserable in their own way.

After arriving in the community, Mo Chu first went to the supermarket at the door to buy a few boxes of things.

Qiao Zhen Zhen didn't take anything strange on her face, and let him get close to the elders.

The house became more lively because of Mo Chu, and the time seemed to be getting faster. After dinner, it was the familiar New Year's greetings and Spring Festival Gala time on the mobile phone. The whole family was sitting in the living room, and Qiao Zhenzhen picked up the news to reply. A few, and twenty red envelopes were distributed in the company group, and as soon as he looked up, he met Mo Chu's pitiful face.

"Sister, send me one too."

"...Go away." Her studio can give him money on a monthly basis, and even if he is bankrupt, he is richer than the average person.

Mo Chu failed miserably in the sale, and changed his target instead. Qin Jing was coaxed by him to directly send a five-digit number. Qiao Zhenzhen laughed and scolded him for being shameless, chasing after him to get the red envelope back, Qin Zhao heard that he was asking for the red envelope and joined Qiao Zhenzhen's faction, the living room was in an instant mess.

In the midst of the excitement, Qin Sheng's cell phone rang, and seeing the video from Chi Cheng, he immediately nodded with a smile.

Chi Cheng was sitting at the dining table. The surroundings were quiet, but after the video was connected, there was a sudden uproar. He couldn't help laughing and crying: "Where is your house being demolished?"

"It's almost like tearing down a house, everyone is worrying." Qin Sheng scolded, but the corners of his lips were full of smiles.

Chi Cheng was a little envious: "It's good, it's better to be more lively during the New Year."

"Why is it just you, Chi Shen?" Qin Sheng asked again.

"Chi Shen hasn't come out yet. I'm waiting for him to eat."

Qiao Zhenzhen just grabbed Mo Chu's mobile phone, and before she could send the red envelope back, she heard Chi Shen's name, her whole body froze, Mo Chu took the opportunity to grab the mobile phone: "This is given to me by Auntie, I will defend it to the death!"

"If you don't give it, don't give it, it's boring." Qiao Zhenzhen lost her interest in fighting, and sat down on the sofa and started playing with her phone.

Mo Chu leaned over and said, "You're angry, senpai?"

"I have nothing to be angry with." Qiao Zhenzhen laughed.

"Hey too, have a good time for the new year."

When Mo Chu was talking, Qiao Zhenzhen's cell phone rang, she looked down and saw that it was five transfers, which added up to exactly five times what Qin Jing gave him.

"Come on, don't let my uncle see it!" Mo Chu said, and quickly ordered the payment for her.

Qiao Zhenzhen was amused by him and smashed him with the pillow, he shouted exaggeratedly and ran to Qin Jing to complain, Qin Jing immediately carried Qiao Zhenzhen over.

Chi Cheng on the other side of the phone heard an unfamiliar voice, and after a pause, he was curious: "Have guests at your house?"

"Yes," Qin Sheng said, turning the camera around and taking a photo in the direction of Qiao Zhen Zhen and Mo Chu, "See, Zhen Zhen's good friend, it's New Year's Eve at my house this year."

"Is that so..." After Chi Cheng said, if he felt something, he turned around and met Chi Shen's eyes.

He subconsciously turned off the phone and said awkwardly, "When did you come?"

"Just got down." Chi Shen said and sat down beside him.

Chi Cheng glanced at him carefully: "Just now... have you seen it?" For a big festival like the Chinese New Year, when the boy stayed at home to spend it together, he probably guessed the relationship between this boy and Zhen Zhen.

I don't know if he will be sad.

Chi Shen glanced at him when he heard the words, his face that has matured a lot in recent years has no expression at all: "Well, I see."

"……How are you?"

Chi Shen paused, then raised his head for unknown reasons: "Why not?"

Chi Cheng was stunned for a moment, looking at his clear eyes, he was relieved: "It's okay, I'll just say it casually."

He actually forgot that Chi Shen had fully recovered half a year ago. Now that she has recovered, she will naturally not be obsessed with Zhen Zhen like before, maybe after so long, her feelings for her have long since disappeared.

It's a pity to think about it, he once thought seriously that after Chi Shen's recovery, he still likes Zhen Zhen, and Zhen Zhen is also willing to accept Chi Shen again, but now it seems that everyone has come out.

Chi Cheng sighed, and then was happy that Chi Shen was sitting in front of him in a healthy way: "Let's eat quickly, it's Chinese New Year today, Grandpa will send you a big red envelope later."

Chi Shen nodded slightly, picked up the knife and fork, and was silent for a while, then suddenly said, "Grandpa, I want to work at Chi's after the New Year."

Chi Cheng was stunned for a moment, and when he regained his senses, he was immediately ecstatic: "Then what about your overseas business?"

"It was originally meant to pass the time during the treatment. Now that the diagnosis has recovered, there is no need to continue. I still want to go back to China." Chi Shen looked at him.

Chi Cheng naturally agreed: "Okay, good, when you started a company abroad, I was afraid that you would not come back, but now you are willing to come back, and grandpa doesn't have to worry about you, what is good abroad, Is the proliferation of guns still dangerous, or is it better in our country?"

The corners of Chi Shen's lips raised a slight arc, and he agreed with him.

After dinner, Chi Shen returned to the room, locked the door before sitting down at the desk, lowered his eyes and chatted with the foreign partner, and then his eyes fell on the table.

There was a kraft paper bag, which contained all the materials of Zhenyu Studio.

He looked cold, and his eyes were all alienated.

After the New Year's Eve, the holiday suddenly shortened. Qiao Zhenzhen was idle for a month, but she felt that her limbs were going to be crippled, and she had no intention of working, so she stayed at home for a few more days until Qin Jing couldn't bear to rush her. , she reluctantly left.

She was on a plane to S city in the morning. After arriving, she immediately went to the studio. As soon as she entered the door, two local employees screamed and rushed over: "Boss, you are back, if you don't come back, we will die of exhaustion. !"

"Three times the salary, no, four times." Qiao Zhen Zhen immediately promised.

One of the employees smiled: "I'm afraid four times is not enough, boss, do you remember the visit plan we made years ago?"

"Well, what's wrong?" Qiao Zhen Zhen looked at her.

The visit plan is a project that they attach more importance to this year. They plan to choose some representative companies for an immersive experience of visiting and experience the corporate culture and working atmosphere in all aspects. It not only satisfies the audience's curiosity about these companies, but also promotes these companies. Therefore, as soon as the project is tendered, many companies sign up.

The two people in front of them are responsible for screening and signing contracts.

"Do you know which company we signed?" The first person played mysterious.

The second person immediately decrypted: "Chi's!"

The two hugged and screamed excitedly, but Qiao Zhenzhen was stunned: "Grandpa didn't tell me?"

"Grandpa? Which grandpa?" The two were suddenly curious.

Another old employee couldn't stand it anymore, so he tapped the two of them with a book: "It's Chi Cheng, the chairman of the Chi family, and he has been a close friend with the eldest grandfather for many years."

The two suddenly took a deep breath: "No wonder the other party gave so many commissions, I thought it was because I liked our videos too much."

"Stupid or not, with their reputation, it's normal for us to subsidize money to shoot, and they pay commissions. It looks like grandpa is cheering for our boss."

"Long live grandpa!"

"Long live grandpa!"

Qiao Zhen Zhen didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and after casually glanced at the amount in the contract, she quickly called Chi Cheng.

As soon as the phone was connected, she immediately said, "Grandpa, why didn't you tell me about your cooperation with my studio in advance, and why are you paying commissions? Our project is a win-win cooperation, we don't need you For the money, let's find a time to re-sign the contract."

After speaking, waited for Chi Cheng's response, but after waiting for a long time, could only hear the weak breathing of the other party.

She paused: "Grandpa?"

The phone was silent for a while, and a low and hoarse voice came: "I signed the contract."

Qiao Zhen Zhen was stunned for a while, then hesitantly glanced at her phone, made sure she didn't dial the wrong number, and asked carefully, "You are..."

He breathed in the receiver, and soon came the busy tone.

Qiao Zhen Zhen looked inexplicable.

Who is it?
