Reborn in 2015, I became a male god starting in high school.

Chapter 140 Li Caiyu Resigns

Xu Qing stayed next door for a while, took a shower, changed into clean clothes, and then came back over.

Upon entering, I found Zhou Guowei cleaning up the dishes.

Xu Qing quickly went over and said, "You can leave these here, I'll tidy them up in a bit."

Zhou Guowei didn't stop what he was doing; he just kept busy.

Too much had happened to him today; he needed to do something to calm himself down.

Seeing that Zhou Guowei showed no sign of stopping, Xu Qing joined him in tidying up.

While washing the dishes, Zhou Guowei couldn't help but ask, "Does Weiwei like Ziyang?"

Xu Qing paused for a moment.

Then, a slight smile appeared on her lips as she gave Zhou Guowei a look: "You figured it out?"

"Actually, I just found out myself."

"Oh."

Xia Wei's actions were too obvious; Zhou Guowei must have noticed.

He placed the washed dishes next to the sink without saying anything.

Xu Qing noticed that Zhou Guowei remained silent and asked curiously, "Aren't you going to offer your opinion?"

Zhou Guowei said, "What's there to complain about?"

"This is a matter for the children themselves, so let them decide for themselves. As parents, it's not appropriate for us to interfere too much."

"That's not how you put it."

Xu Qing, who had previously disagreed with Zhou Ziyang, changed her tune today.

She said that Weiwei and Ziyang had practically grown up together.

"You've watched Weiwei grow up. Compared to other girls outside, isn't Weiwei more reassuring? Besides, you know that Weiwei has always respected you, hasn't she?"

Zhou Guowei was washing dishes over there.

Instead, Xu Qing took the bowls and chopsticks from his hands and started washing them for him.

Zhou Guowei looked up and glanced at Xu Qing.

But then he saw Xu Qing smiling at him.

Zhou Guowei said, "What's wrong with you today? I remember you always objected to Weiwei and Ziyang getting too close. Why have you suddenly changed your attitude? Do you think Ziyang has become successful?"

"Oh dear, what are you saying?"

Xu Qing disagreed with this, saying that she had been too narrow-minded before.

I only found out after we had this argument.

"I feel that our relationship is not very stable. If these two children get married, wouldn't our relationship be more stable?"

Zhou Guowei shook his head, saying that's not how it's said.

"If they get married, we can only be in-laws."

"That's fine too. After all, we're getting old. It doesn't really matter whether we have that certificate or not. But if Weiwei and Ziyang get together, we'll still be family, and I can still take care of you, right?"

Today, Xu Qing is all tenderness and affection, a complete contrast to her previous demeanor.

This puzzled Zhou Guowei.

Xu Qing, however, did not give Zhou Guowei a chance to think too much. She simply asked him what he thought of Weiwei.
Zhou Guowei thought about it carefully and said, "Weiwei is definitely a good person."

Xu Qing said that's right.

"Think about it, it would be better for Weiwei to marry Ziyang rather than get married elsewhere."

Zhou Guowei nodded, not in agreement, but just subconsciously brushing it off, saying, "This is the child's own business, let's talk about it later."

After saying this, Zhou Guowei wiped his hands and left the sink.

The remaining dishes and chopsticks will definitely be washed by Xu Qing.

To be honest, compared to other girls, Zhou Guowei really hoped Xia Wei would become his daughter-in-law.

After all, Xia Wei was someone he had watched grow up, and he had previously considered arranging for Xia Wei to marry Zhou Ziyang.

However, Zhou Ziyang seems to have a prejudice against him.

He was too embarrassed to say it directly.

With Zhou Ziyang's current strength.

This irresponsible old father of his has long since lost the right to point fingers.

Another thing Zhou Guowei didn't understand was why Xu Qing, who had been so aggressive just a few days ago, was acting so strangely.

Has he changed his tune today?
Didn't you keep saying that Ziyang's money was given to him by himself?
The reason for such a big change is actually...

It was Xia Wei who came back and told Xu Qing about her part-time job for Zhou Ziyang in Jinling.

Xia Wei never imagined that Zhou Ziyang would earn so much money.

It wasn't until Xia Wei started working part-time that she realized Zhou Ziyang was actually making money.

So after returning home, Xia Wei told Xu Qing everything without hiding anything.

Xu Qing initially didn't believe that Zhou Ziyang could earn so much money.

I always felt that Zhou Guowei was helping him behind the scenes.

But facts speak louder than words. If Zhou Ziyang's assets were truly managed by Zhou Guowei, Zhou Guowei would never be living so carefree now.

That's only one possibility.

Although it's unrealistic.

But it is indeed the truth.

Zhou Ziyang earned all of this himself!

Looking again, her daughter still seemed determined to have no choice but Zhou Ziyang.

Xu Qing thought, let's give it one last try!

That means following Lao Zhou's route.

Otherwise, it would be such a pity to watch such a high-quality son-in-law as Zhou Ziyang fly away.

She would rather her relationship with Zhou Guowei end here.

I also hope that Zhou Ziyang can get together with his daughter.

Each of them had their own thoughts, and so the night passed.

The old accountant in Nanjing submitted the expense report to Zhou Ziyang early in the morning.

On the 4th, Zhou Ziyang earned 130,000 yuan in one day.

As of today, Zhou Ziyang's income from this holiday has reached 500,000 yuan.

Zhou Ziyang had a comfortable sleep in his new home, starting at 11 p.m. and continuing until 8 a.m. the next morning.

I ran around the river twice, bought a bottle of mineral water, and a basket of steamed buns.

After having breakfast, I went home, played on my phone for a while, and chatted with Jiang Menghan for a bit.

During this time, Lin Siyao and Wang Rouxin sent messages to Zhou Ziyang.

Zhou Ziyang replied to each one.

Then at eleven o'clock, he drove to Li Dongfeng's house and asked Li Dongfeng to accompany him to the dog market. Zhou Ziyang really felt that the yard was bare and not very interesting.

Li Dongfeng was still half asleep, clearly not yet awake from his dream.

He rubbed his eyes as soon as he got in the car.

Zhou Ziyang asked curiously, "Where's your sister?"

"Oh, she went to the factory."

"Didn't you say you were going to resign? It's been a whole morning, and you're still not back?"

"I don't know, she's probably having dinner with friends. Never mind her, aren't we going to the dog market?"

Zhou Ziyang said, "Call your sister along. Give her a call."

Li Dongfeng seemed somewhat reluctant when he heard that he should be called "sister".

He said, "Brother Zhou, I feel like you're treating my sister better than me now. Could it be that you like my sister?"

Zhou Ziyang said, "What nonsense are you talking about?"

“Sister Caiyu is six years older than me. Besides, you know I have a girlfriend.”

"What's wrong with having a girlfriend? It's normal for a real man to have three wives and four concubines!" Li Dongfeng said. Zhou Ziyang told him to stop talking nonsense.

"That's your own sister, how could you joke like that?"

Li Dongfeng grinned and said it was nothing.

“I definitely wouldn’t say that to anyone else, but what kind of person are you, brother? Don’t I know you well enough? I’m at ease with my sister following you.”

"Stop talking nonsense and make the call."

"oh oh."

Li Dongfeng called Li Caiyu, but the call didn't go through.

Zhou Ziyang suggested driving over to take a look.

The weather is nice today; the sun is shining brightly, and the temperature is rising.

Zhou Ziyang drove the car to Li Caiyu's factory.

The factory security guards actually recognized it as a Porsche.

Zhou Ziyang hadn't figured out how to get him to open the door, but as soon as he got to the door, the security guard actually opened it.

Li Dongfeng said, "This is clearly bullying the weak and fearing the strong."

"Look at you, driving a luxury car, you just opened the door like that. Everyone in this factory is a bully who picks on the weak and fears the strong."

Li Dongfeng used to visit his sister often, so he had some understanding of the interpersonal relationships in the factory.

Zhou Ziyang asked him if he knew which workshop Caiyu worked in.

"I must know!"

"Why don't you try calling Sister Caiyu again?"

"I tried calling, but the call didn't go through."

"Let's go take a look."

Zhou Ziyang parked the car and followed Li Dongfeng out.

When they arrived at the workshop where Li Caiyu worked, they found her wearing her factory uniform and working on the assembly line.

"Sister!" Li Dongfeng called out.

Li Caiyu was quite surprised to see Zhou Ziyang and Li Dongfeng.

She brushed her hair back from her forehead and walked over to ask, "What brings you all here?"

The uniform Li Caiyu wore at the factory was gray and somewhat bulky, but it looked quite good on her.

Li Dongfeng grinned and said, "My brother couldn't find you and was worried about you, so he insisted on dragging me here!"

Li Caiyu blushed, lowered her head, and then secretly glanced at Zhou Ziyang.

Zhou Ziyang said, "Don't talk nonsense."

Looking at Li Caiyu in front of him, Zhou Ziyang was puzzled. He said, "Why are you still working? Didn't I tell you to quit?"

Li Caiyu said, "I think I'm quite busy, so I'm thinking of talking about it when I get off work."

"No, sis, are you stupid! They won't pay you extra if you work one more day!"

Li Dongfeng became anxious upon hearing this.

Li Caiyu looked like she had been caught doing something wrong, and lowered her head, feeling somewhat guilty.

She said they were all friends and colleagues.

"I was thinking of helping out."

From Li Caiyu's perspective, she had worked at the factory for six or seven years, so she must have developed an attachment to it.

However, her actions are generally incomprehensible to most people.

Zhou Ziyang said, "Okay."

"Sister Caiyu, we're all here now. Why don't you go and tell them to come with us? We were just thinking of taking you out to play this afternoon."

"Oh"

Even though Zhou Ziyang had said that, Li Caiyu still seemed a little hesitant.

Finally, under the watchful eyes of Zhou Ziyang and Li Dongfeng, he reluctantly went to tell the team leader.

I heard that Li Caiyu was going to resign.

The people in the same group were all surprised.

"Resign? No, Caiyu, you're doing so well, why do you suddenly want to resign?"

"Are you going home to get married?"

"no no."

Li Caiyu quickly waved her hand.

Under questioning from the female workers in the same group.

Li Caiyu eventually felt embarrassed and told the truth.

My younger brother is going to study in Nanjing, and I'm thinking of going with him...
"Really? Who's that guy standing next to your brother? I've never seen him before."

"Is he your boyfriend? He's quite handsome."

The female workers had noticed Zhou Ziyang long ago and couldn't help but gossip about him.

Li Caiyu waved her hand and said no.

However, Zhou Ziyang's identity remains unclear.

At this moment, Li Dongfeng was still urging her, asking if his sister was ready yet.

Li Caiyu said she had to wait a moment, as she needed to go to the office.

So they waited back and forth like this for almost an hour.

It's really troublesome to get a worker to resign. They said I have to submit an application first and then wait for a reply from above.

Li Dongfeng was very unhappy to hear this, and said, "Why are there so many rules?"

"Let's just go!"

As a result, the HR personnel in the office said that if I left, it would be considered absenteeism for the month, and I wouldn't get paid.

"That's perfect, it's only October 5th now," Li Dongfeng said with a smile.

The HR representative stated, "It's last month's salary."

"No."

Li Dongfeng immediately got annoyed.

He wanted to say something more, but Zhou Ziyang stopped him.

He indicated that he would leave first.

"Brother, it's not that I'm heartbroken about the few thousand yuan, it's just that I feel really stifled," Li Dongfeng said after they came out.

Zhou Ziyang told them to get in the car first and then we could talk.

The factory is neither too big nor too small.

Zhou Ziyang's Porsche is indeed eye-catching.

In no time, the news spread throughout the factory that Li Caiyu, the factory beauty from several workshops, had been picked up by a Porsche.

Then, the HR and finance departments originally wanted to use factory regulations to deduct half a month's salary from Li Caiyu.

In the afternoon, I received a call from someone claiming to be Li Caiyu's lawyer, saying they were coming to help Li Caiyu with her resignation.

"???"

Having worked in HR for so many years, this is the first time I've ever heard of hiring a lawyer to process a resignation.

Unable to make up their minds, they quickly went to find their supervisor.

When the leader learned that Li Caiyu had been picked up by a Porsche that morning, he said, "Just settle her wages for her. She's a young woman who has worked for the factory for several years. We don't need to make things difficult for her because of half a month's wages."

"Transfer the money to her card now."

"what?"

"Okay, do as I say."

And so, while Li Caiyu was still at the dog market with Zhou Ziyang looking at puppies, the bank sent her a message, giving her an extra 1,000 yuan bonus.
