Chapter 35 Chapter 35 Xiaozhen thought it must be a very important occasion... Xiaozhen

thought it must be a very important occasion, so she dressed more appropriately. She rarely dressed up carefully, put on a little makeup, and went to the barber shop to get a haircut. After choosing and choosing, she chose to wear a white skirt and top.

Wu Ma said it was very beautiful and suitable, and Xia Jie said that it was for a business party.

Hearing this, I felt relieved. Professor Zhou was an old-fashioned person and would not like fancy clothes.

When we arrived downstairs of the company, Ren Qiu was already waiting. She clapped her hands and said that Xiaozhen was beautiful and cute again.

She pulled her and said enthusiastically: "Don't be nervous. Professor Zhou is very kind and amiable. It's not a big deal, and it's not a big deal." The big deal

she said must be the incident last year. Professor Zhou is certainly qualified to ask questions. Qiao Yihua is almost the same as his son. Others invite him to give lectures for thousands or tens of thousands of yuan, but he teaches Qiao Yihua everything he knows.

The elevator did not go to the company floor, but to a very quiet teahouse on the top floor.

Assistant Wei and Professor Zhou were already waiting.

Assistant Wei saw that Xiaozhen was different from last time, and was very polite. He stood up and walked a few steps to indicate where Xiaozhen should sit.

Xiaozhen bowed slightly to Zhou Jiandong, "Hello, Uncle Zhou."

Professor Zhou, who had half white hair and a very energetic demeanor, nodded to her kindly.

Ren Qiu sat down with her.

"Xiaozhen has really grown up, and her complexion is much rosier. She was still a little girl when I saw her before."

Xiaozhen said, "That was many, many years ago."

"It was many years ago." Zhou Jiandong said, "I still remember when Yihua was a child, she would hold the end of a pencil and do her homework on the stone table next to the livestock in the countryside every day. Her hands would get frostbite in winter and be bitten by mosquitoes in summer. It's not easy for her to get to where she is now. How could she have imagined the life she has now."

"Well, my brother is really hard-working, very hard-working, and always very busy."

"Yes, you know better than anyone whether he works hard or not because you spend every day with him. Before Yihua's father passed away, he was the one he was most worried about. He was young and impulsive, daring to take risks and let go boldly. This is the reason for his success. It is because of this kind of personality that you will hurt some people unconsciously. No matter if you are a friend from your youth, you will sometimes be hurt by this overly harsh light. Yihua often said that he would make many people uncomfortable, resent him, and be angry with him if he went too far. He would be calculated everywhere if he took a wrong step, but it was just the price he should pay."

Zhou Jiandong said it very sincerely. Was he apologizing to her?

Xiaozhen's heart was almost dug out and she whipped herself, "I... I have never felt any resentment."

Professor Zhou smiled and said, "Miss Xiaozhen is Yihua's sister, how could she feel resentment? He always said that he only has two relatives left in this world, one is his mother and the other is you."

Xiaozhen didn't know what touched her, and tears rolled down her cheeks.

Ren Qiu took out a tissue and handed it to her, saying with a smile: "Why are you crying? For so many years, President Qiao has treated you better than his own sister. You can't just realize it now."

"Ren Qiu, needless to say, Miss Xiaozhen is touched. Your President Qiao can devote all his efforts to a little girl who has no blood relationship with him, without asking for anything in return. He is a very loyal person." Professor Zhou paused and continued: "Of course Miss Xiaozhen is also loyal and will consider Yihua in everything. Whether the feelings between you will be sublimated in the future or maintain the status quo, it will not be transferred in any form. Xiao Wei Renqiu, let Miss Xiaozhen attend the company's annual meeting at the end of this year, get more contact with society, and arrange a position for her when she gets better so that she can get more exercise. You can arrange her to be Yihua's secretary. She knows the hardships and troubles of starting a business."

Xiaozhen wiped her tears gently, still moved. She is like this. When she is emotional, she thinks everyone's words make sense and she is easily coaxed.

Assistant Wei then said in a relaxed tone: "It's not easy for college students nowadays. It's hard to find a job after graduation, unlike the previous years. The competition will be even more difficult for the students who have been enrolled in the expansion program to graduate in two years."

Zhou Jiandong stopped beating around the bush and had almost finished the preparation. "The company's performance in the past few years has been outstanding. Although villains have been constantly sabotaging, the overall situation is still upward. The domestic opening is more comprehensive, and the competition pressure is greater. We need financing, foreign technology, and international cooperation. Risks bring opportunities, and opportunities bring challenges. Domestic companies are flocking to it, and we can't be careless at all. Miss Xiaozhen has studied and attended university, so Xiao Wei told her some time ago that the dissolution of the brother-sister relationship was unclear, thinking that it was to break up the brothers and sisters. Feelings are not based on any legal relationship, but are accumulated over time. The dissolution is purely for work needs to avoid disputes and cumbersomeness from the outside world or even future shareholders. And if you want to sublimate your relationship to a higher level, you still have to dissolve it, otherwise it will make people laugh at you, right?"

It was not until now that Xiaozhen knew the purpose of coming here.

In fact, Professor Zhou said it very clearly and explained it very clearly. The meaning of sublimation is that if the relationship is further developed, even if there is no blood relationship, it must be dissolved, otherwise the legal relationship is against moral ethics.

Xiaozhen did not show much resistance, but she did not say anything.

Next, Ren Qiu and Assistant Wei communicated with her.

Ren Qiu said: "Xiaozhen, no matter what form it is, you are a close family like brothers and sisters. President Qiao has always loved you the most. Last year, in order to listen to your message on New Year's Eve, I went through the voicemail in the office for half a year. Every time you delivered food, I asked if Xiaozhen was outside the door. I was embarrassed to say that you were waiting downstairs, for fear that he would be angry."

At this point, Qiao Yihua became a man who was devoted, humane and had no shortcomings, and she seemed to have become a willful and ignorant woman.

Xiaozhen said softly: "This is a small matter. Professor Zhou can just make a phone call, and doesn't need to come in person."

Zhou Jiandong smiled and said: "Miss Xiaozhen is important. I have always regarded you as Yihua's relative. I haven't seen you for a long time. Let's have dinner together when I come back from a business trip tonight. You are a sensible and well-educated child. I know." He hammered his waist, "I am a little tired after sitting for a long time. I will go to rest first. You guys go ahead."

He stood up and waved his hand for Xiaowei and Xiaozhen to sit down.

Ren Qiu sent him downstairs to the hotel.

Assistant Wei said in a good manner: "Miss Xiaozhen, we can discuss the specific procedures."

"Does my brother know?"

Xiaowei said with certainty: "Boss Qiao and Professor Zhou have said several times that the termination of the relationship requires the consent and proof of both parties. Boss Qiao can't do it if he doesn't know."

"Then why didn't he tell me directly?"

"Boss Qiao said that this matter is very small and you will definitely agree."

Xiaozhen was fussy: "Then he still didn't know about you looking for me today?"

Xiaowei didn't know how to answer for a while, and he really didn't know. But it didn't matter at all. In the end, both parties still showed up and he had to be there.

"How about this, Mr. Qiao can ask about it when he comes back. There's no need to feel unhappy about such a small matter."

Xiaozhen was attacked and stopped resisting.

The teahouse was silent.

Ren Qiu came to break this situation. She took Xiaozhen's hand and said, "I'll tell you the truth. Mr. Qiao didn't tell us about this. But Xiaozhen, if you want to be with him, you must terminate the legal relationship. Being reported by someone with ulterior motives will be bad for your reputation. You haven't been in society, but Mr. Qiao has. You don't know how terrible public opinion is, especially for women. People's words are scary."

Xiaozhen took a deep breath, "Sister, I know. What do I need to do?"

Xiao Wei flipped through the information and said preparedly, "First, you can produce the ID information of both parties. Just give me Miss Xiaozhen's ID card. Second, you can issue a certificate of the location of the ID card, and our staff will go to Xi'an specifically. Third, both parties write a statement of termination of relationship, and there will be basically no problem."

"I didn't bring my ID today." Xiaozhen whispered, "Send it over tomorrow."

Seeing that she was convinced, Xiao Wei hurriedly said, "Okay, okay, I can go get it."

Xiaozhen stood up and nodded to them without too much emotion: "Then I'll go back."

Ren Qiu hugged Xiaozhen and said, "Didn't Professor Zhou say that he would have dinner with President Qiao and you in the evening? I just booked a hotel, and you don't have to bother coming and going. Go to President Qiao's office to have a rest."

Xiaozhen shook her head and smiled, "I'm going to go outside. I want to eat ice cream. It's a bit hot."

Ren Qiu put his arm around her shoulders and walked down the stairs, saying, "Professor Zhou treats President Qiao as his own son, and he will definitely speak in his favor. How could your brother So miserable, not someone who suffers. The traitors Zhang Jianhua and Liu Qinghua who left the company, your brother can bear it without making a sound, and will also..."

Ren Qiu stopped talking halfway, "Anyway, don't have any psychological pressure, is it possible that President Qiao took you in in order to get your return in the future? Even if there is no legal relationship in the future, the love for you is a hundred times greater than that of others."

I don't know if she heard these words, and when she went downstairs, Xiaozhen didn't let her go, "You go up, I'll go around and come back soon."

Xiaozhen didn't eat ice cream, and walked to a window of clothes in the commercial street. It was a very famous luxury brand. The poster of the model with blue eyes and white skin was wearing a modern black and white classic style, and the price was tens of thousands of yuan.

She stood there for a long time, vaguely seeing herself in the reflection mirror, and took the opportunity to see in the mirror that in the distance, a mother carrying large and small bags brought a little girl of seven or eight years old. They

should be outsiders who came here to work, and they looked very restrained.

She should have been one of this group of people, and always should have been.

Sitting on the stone slab under the tree, Xiaozhen ate a few bites of bread. She knew that there must be a driver following her in the distance, but she still felt lonely.

The older you get and the more you think, the lonelier you will be.

For so many years, she has never had the right to control her own life. She has always been helpless with her dead father, her deceased mother, and her brother who only wants to maintain a pure and closest brother-sister relationship with her.

When it was almost dusk, the driver came over and said that Mr. Qiao would soon arrive at the company, and Miss Hu could go to the company and wait first.

Xiaozhen was guarded and returned to the company. She saw Qiao Yihua from a distance.

I don’t know why, the moment she saw him, her heart beat violently, and she was a little breathless.

Qiao Yihua was listening to Xiao Wei and Ren Qiu report about the afternoon. He turned his head and saw Xiaozhen. He stretched out his hand to signal her to come over.

He was still dressed as a successful person. He was exhausted after several hours of flying. His hair was neatly combed and his clothes were formal.

Qiao Yihua interrupted the two people’s report, took off his suit and put it in Xiaozhen’s hand. He touched her head and said, "I’ll go see Uncle Zhou first. We will go home together later. You wait for me in the underground garage."

Without waiting for her to answer, he walked down the elevator quickly.

Xiao Wei was still being businesslike and said, "Then Miss Xiaozhen will wait at home tomorrow. I will write the certificate and have Mr. Qiao sign it. Then I will go over to get your ID and other documents. You can just sign them."

Xiaozhen glanced at him and walked away silently.

The elevator went to the underground garage. The lights were a little dim. I found his car dazedly, opened the door and sat in the back seat.

With my arm still around his clothes, I reached over and found a pack of cigarettes and a lighter in his pocket.

Xiaozhen played with it for a while. This is something that many men like. They use it more frequently than coffee or tea.

She took out a cigarette and lit it.

She put it in her mouth.
