Aunt Mei was indeed not surprised by my early return.

Although I specially bought her Qin Ning’s specialty canned peaches, Aunt Mei obviously did not have any special reaction to this, and just said thank you indifferently.

It seems that my previous worries are not unreasonable. The faint ambiguity I had before my business trip did come to an abrupt end.

But what I expected was that it was not that distance changed all this, but a misunderstanding.

On the night I went back, Aunt Mei was always indifferent. Although she did not show any anger or disgust towards me, she still cooked for me as usual and watched TV with me after dinner.

But, I could clearly feel that the feeling was still thin.

Compared to this, this cold treatment makes me feel even more uncomfortable.

I would rather she be angry, get angry at me, question me, have a big fight with me, and throw something away.

But none of them. Indeed, Aunt Mei is not such a little girl anymore. She obviously will not be willful or show jealousy. That is indeed not in line with her age.

Besides, my relationship with Aunt Mei has been just ambiguous, a slight ambiguous relationship, not a boyfriend and girlfriend, so it is even more impossible for her to question me.

I sat next to Aunt Mei and quietly approached Aunt Mei.

Aunt Kemei noticed it keenly, she stood up and said, "I'm sleepy, I'm going to bed first, and I'll get up early tomorrow."

As he said that, he turned around and walked towards the bedroom.

I felt a stern in my heart and called her, "Auntie Mei."

Aunt Mei was stunned and turned around and smiled, "What's wrong?"

"Aunt Mei, actually... that's just a misunderstanding. Lu Yating and I don't..."

I tried to explain to Aunt Mei.

But Aunt Mei interrupted me before she could finish her words and said, "Qin Zheng, you don't have to explain to me. I'm not angry, yes, I'm not angry, and I'm not qualified to interfere in these things. That's your freedom, isn't it?"

I really don’t like her attitude in my heart. If I weren’t angry, why would I suddenly feel a grudge?

But when you are angry and don’t say it directly, it’s really uncomfortable.

"I just want to tell you, Aunt Mei, I'm not that kind of casual person, really, I'm not. We got drunk that day and I didn't know anything. I was sent back by the customer, I didn't know anything." I said, "Do you believe me?"

Aunt Mei smiled faintly and said, "I just said that I really don't care about these things, and I'm not angry. You really don't have to explain to me."

"But your performance is obviously annoying! Our condition was not like this before. I am not a fool. I can feel it. I believe you have feelings!" I said, "Since you care in your heart, why don't you want to express it?"

Aunt Mei was stunned for a moment and said, "I won't say anything, go to bed early."

After saying that, she turned around and entered the bedroom.

I was completely sure that Aunt Mei cared about it, but the state between us made us unable to show it like an ordinary couple.

I deeply understand that Aunt Mei couldn't help but be brave. She was always tempted and accidentally taken away by feeling. After all, many times, feelings are not so easy to control.

But all this was ruined that night. Aunt Mei carefully tempted and now she has completely retreated.

I was anxious and wanted to change all this, but I had no idea to start because Aunt Mei didn't listen to my explanation at all, nor was she willing to admit that she was angry about it. Every time she talked about it, she could not touch the core issue at all, so she unilaterally ended the talks.

In recent days, I have been in this state. Although we don’t look different from usual, I know it’s completely different.

This incident deeply troubles me. I think about it every day, which affects my work.

After the Guanlan International Project case was completed, I made a mistake at the first internal company display meeting. Due to absent-mindedness, many low-level mistakes occurred in my area, which was pointed out by Manager Wu without hesitation.

Mr. Hua was obviously very unhappy and said, "I said Qin Zheng, do you understand the importance of this project? This is related to whether we can completely win the big customer of Jinke Real Estate! I thought I would understand without saying that you can understand it? He can still make such a low-level mistake? What exactly did it do?"

Wu Jingxuan immediately took the blame and said, "Mr. Hua, this project of Guanlan World is really too important. With Qin Zheng's current careless attitude, I think it's impossible to do it well. Why not let me take responsibility."

I hurriedly said, "Mr. Hua, it was my mistake. Please forgive me. Give me another chance. I promise to do it well."

Mr. Hua hesitated for a moment, sighed, and said, "Why did you ask you to do this project? It's not because you have rich experience, but because you have won the affirmation of Mr. Jia before being Junlin Tianxia. Otherwise, I'll send Jingxuan to do it. Let's do it. I'll give you another chance. If it really doesn't work, I have no choice but to change people."

...

After get off work, I chose to stay in the company and work overtime to make a new plan. This plan is indeed very important, both for my development and for the company's development, so I don't want to go home to do it, because after I get home, seeing Aunt Mei's condition will inevitably affect me.

I called Aunt Mei in advance and told her that I would not go back for dinner.

Wu Jingxuan pretended to pass by and said, "I said Qin Zheng, sometimes, no matter how hard you try, you can't make up for your lack of ability. You should just do it for me honestly."

I hadn't spoken yet, Lu Yating didn't know when he came out, and heard it, saying, "Manager Wu is so capable, why not find more new projects for the company, what can I do here?"

Wu Jingxuan was stunned and said, "Yatting, are you too partial to you? He has made such an important plan like this, and you still favor him?"

Lu Yating said with a serious look on her face, "So far, I am still the main person in charge of this project, so it's not your turn to interfere for the time being. If you have something to do, go and get off work if you have nothing to do, don't stand here and get in the way."

Wu Jingxuan was so sad that he left in shame.

After Wu Jingxuan left, Lu Yating and I were the only one left in the company. She took a chair and sat next to me, saying, "I'll accompany you."

"No," I said quickly, "I can do it myself, you can get off work quickly."

She paused and said, "Is it because of the last time?"

"No." I said, "I'm just not in a good state."

"Come on, I'm not a fool." Lu Yating said, "It really doesn't work. I'll explain it to your middle-aged woman."

"It's really no need." I said, "You'd better get off work quickly."

But you know, I can't help but insist on staying with me.

Of course, Lu Yating stayed is indeed helpful to the plan, and she always has many novel ideas.

The effect of overtime was gratifying. We inspired each other, and inspiration came for a while. We set the core and main promotional speech in one fell swoop, and other frameworks were naturally the case.

Lu Yating was also very excited and said, "Not bad! I said it would be helpful to you to stay. Wait. I'll pour us two cups of coffee. After drinking, we'll settle everything else tonight."

She stood up excitedly. Who knew that because she was too excited, she couldn't stand firm all of a sudden, and staggered and almost fell down. I hurried to help her.

Fortunately, she helped her in time and did not fall, but fell into my arms.
