Zhutian Films: Starting with the Story of Roses

Su Gengsheng went to Chen Yang's office to continue working on the details of the city's youth project. During this time, the two of them developed a rare tacit understanding.

Su Gengsheng enjoys working with intelligent people like President Chen; the two don't need much communication to understand each other.

This wonderful feeling made Supervisor Su feel a long-lost sense of ease. Work was like carrying a load; when the bucket was closer to the other side, the people on this side would have less effort.

The office was very quiet, with only the occasional sound of the two talking.

Just as Su Gengsheng was preparing to refine the last step, her personal cell phone, which was in her pocket, suddenly vibrated.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Chen." Su Gengsheng hung up immediately after glancing at the phone, but the ringtone came again, so she had no choice but to answer it.

A moment later, Su Gengsheng returned to her office, but she was noticeably more depressed and downcast than before she answered the phone.

"Is Manager Su borrowing money from loan sharks?" Chen Yang asked Su Gengsheng with a smile.

The latter, who had just been getting into work mode, heard Chen Yang's joke and a helpless smile immediately appeared on his refined face: "Of course not."

She silently added in her mind that those debt collectors were far more terrifying than loan sharks.

The two quickly finished the final steps, and Su Gengsheng was just about to leave when Chen Yang called out to him, "Manager Su."

"What's wrong, Mr. Chen?" Su Gengsheng turned to look at Chen Yang.

Chen Yang said earnestly, "If you have any questions later, you can come to me anytime."

Upon hearing this, Su Gengsheng was stunned. She thought Chen Yang was talking about work-related matters, but she also suspected that Chen Yang might be referring to something else.

She nodded: "Okay."

With mixed feelings, Su Gengsheng left the office, put the documents back at his workstation, went to the stairwell, and found the phone number labeled "Lock".

She raised her hand to cover her mouth, and said through gritted teeth:

"Didn't I tell you before? Why did you call me while I'm at work? I'm working right now!"

A woman's voice came from the other end of the phone: "It's because there's an urgent matter at home. Your brother's college tuition isn't enough."

After hearing this, Su Gengsheng was so angry that he laughed out loud: "The tuition is 13,000, and you're still short 12,000? So you're telling me to just pay for his university education?"

"What do I owe your family?!"

Finally, she hung up the phone, her eyes filled with exhaustion. Su Gengsheng took a deep breath, rubbed his sore and swollen eyes, and turned back to the company.

Her entire morning was disrupted. Every time Su Gengsheng thought about that hellish family, she felt breathless.

Su Gengsheng thought that by studying in Beijing and working hard, she could get away from her family, but now she seems to be stuck in the same place.

The woman lowered her head, unsure of what to do. President Jiang had asked her about her family, but Su Gengsheng had made excuses to brush it off.

Today in the office, Chen Yang's last words directly touched a nerve with Su Gengsheng.

"Did President Chen figure it out?"

......

It was noon.

Bai Xiaohe drove downstairs, got out of the car with a lunchbox, and wore a simple and elegant indigo green dress with her slightly curled long hair cascading down her back.

Bai Xiaohe's appearance immediately caught the eye of the office workers in the building. In this business district, it is extremely rare to see such a refined and elegant woman.

"Hello there."

"I'm going to Qingting Company."

Chen Yang had informed the front desk in advance, and Bai Xiaohe entered the building smoothly, carrying a food box like a virtuous wife and loving mother.

—Ding-dong!

The elevator doors opened, and Chen Yang looked at her, smiling as he said, "You actually came?"

Today, Bai Xiaohe had shed the aloofness she displayed yesterday when they parted, and a strange smile graced her face: "Of course, I must keep my promise to you."

The employees of Qingting Company all looked up at General Manager Chen and his companion as they walked side by side toward the office.

There are still ten minutes until the end of the workday, and everyone will just be able to witness this scene that will be the subject of gossip and discussion during lunch.

"What a perfect couple!"

"I knew it all along; a man of Mr. Chen's caliber would never lack women."

Chen Yang brought Bai Xiaohe to the office. Han Ying, who was sitting at her workstation, looked at her and sized her up. Han Ying bit her lip and envied Bai Xiaohe's family background.

Women like Bai Xiaohe possess something that is difficult for ordinary people to achieve from birth.

Han Ying muttered to herself, "She's a rich young lady, living a life of luxury. But someone like me is essentially a servant begging for food on my knees."

He suddenly recalled the scene from this morning and chuckled to himself, "They really were kneeling."

Han Ying sighed softly; she was destined to never be able to walk alongside President Chen.

office.

Bai Xiaohe placed the elegant insulated lunchbox on Chen Yang's desk: "This is a healthy lunch I carefully prepared for you."

"The main dish is brown rice, served with a pan-fried steak, broccoli and purple cabbage, and topped with a little flavorful sauce."

Just as Chen Yang was about to express his gratitude, he heard light footsteps outside the office.

Huang Yimei walked in carrying a lunchbox. When she saw Bai Xiaohe, she feigned surprise: "Miss Bai, what brings you here?"

Bai Xiaohe nodded: "Hello, Miss Huang. I happened to have nothing to do at noon today, so I thought I'd bring Chen Yang a healthy lunch."

Compared to Bai Xiaohe's high-quality insulated lunchbox, Huang Yimei's lunchbox was quite simple; it was an old lunchbox that Rose found in her kitchen cabinet.

Huang Yimei suddenly realized, "Oh, that's really unfortunate. I also prepared lunch for Brother Chen Yang. My mother made it this morning."

"I just heated it up in the microwave."

Rose's words were quite interesting. Although she said she prepared it, she subtly implied that the lunch was specially made for Chen Yang by his mother, Wu Yuejiang.

Two lunch boxes with completely different styles were placed side by side on the large desk, which was particularly jarring.

The atmosphere in the office immediately became subtle. Huang Yimei and Bai Xiaohe both looked up and stared at Chen Yang, the real protagonist of the day.

Chen Yang nodded and chuckled, "Then I'm in for a treat today. I was exhausted this morning, so this is a good opportunity to replenish my energy."

What to choose?

Chen Yang, of course, wanted to eat it all.

He was even particular about the order in which he ate, taking a bite from one side and a bite from the other, mixing brown rice and white rice together.

Bai Xiaohe vaguely sensed that Huang Yimei seemed to harbor some kind of hostility towards her. In fact, she had been able to sense it during the symposium at the Central Academy of Fine Arts last time.

Bai Xiaohe looked at Huang Yimei beside her: "Actually, your brother is a very good person, but the two of us are not suitable to be together."

She thought the hostility was because of Huang Zhenhua.

Huang Yimei smiled slightly and said, "Miss Bai, you can just say you don't think much of my brother. Why do you have to praise him as a good person?"

"There's no need for that."

"Although I've never been on a blind date, I know all the procedures. Instead of trying to flatter someone, I'd rather be honest."

Bai Xiaohe was stunned.

Chen Yang covered his mouth and coughed.

"Cough cough."

"Sorry, I choked a little."
