"You're injured, now you need to take good care of your body."
"My body is mine, I know how to cherish it."
Zhu Junjie speaks with a sharp tongue.
Song Lan glanced at him without leaving a trace.
He lowered his eyelids, reached out to touch Tong Tong's little face, and moved closer to her.
Zhu Junjie never looked in the direction of Zhu's mother. Zhu's mother knew that Zhu Junjie was angry with her, but with Tong Tong present, there were some things that Zhu's mother couldn't say.
"Junjie, Mom is very worried about you. Seeing that you're okay, I feel much relieved."
"You should be relieved. What if he..."
"Zhu Junjie."
Tong Tong is a child and doesn't understand some things. Song Lan doesn't want them to talk about Mong Si in front of Tong Tong.
Song Lan interrupted Zhu Junjie and looked at Tong Tong.
Zhu Junjie understood Song Lan's meaning and refrained from saying anything hurtful about Zhu's mother. He dismissed him, saying, "I have Song Lan taking care of me here, you can go back."
"Take good care of yourself. I'll come visit you when I have time."
Zhu Junjie wanted to say it was unnecessary, but at that moment, Tong Tong was looking up at him with her little head, and he responded with a so-so.
"Thank you for your hard work, Xiao Song."
Zhu's mother saw Zhu Junjie and felt uncomfortable when he didn't stay with her for long in the hospital room.
"Mom, let me walk you out."
Song Lan saw that Zhu's mother was feeling low, so she escorted Zhu's mother out.
Outside the door, Song Lan comforted Zhu's mother, "Mom, Zhu Junjie is injured and not feeling well. He may sound a bit strange when he speaks, so don't take his words to heart."
"He feels that I... I care about Mong Si and don't care about his feelings. This is human nature, I understand," Zhu's mother's eyes turned slightly red.
She feels like a failure. Both of her children are now distant from her, and she doesn't know what to do to change this situation.
"Mom, you know what he's like. He acts like a child. He was tough with you in the hospital room just now, but once you leave, he'll reflect on himself and think that what he said was too much. He's all talk and no action."
"You understand him the best."
Song Lan's words made Zhu's mother feel a little better. "I'm going back now, call me if you need anything."
"Be safe on the way."
Song Lan escorted Zhu's mother to the elevator door. As Zhu's mother entered the elevator, she reminded her, "Don't be impatient when dealing with Mong Si."
Mong Si has a cold and paranoid personality. He is stubborn and tends to become more repelled if you talk to him about certain things too much.
"I will try to control my emotions as much as possible."
Zhu's mother wants to say that if Tong Tong is not in the Zhu Family, Mong Si probably won't go back.
She was afraid of Song Lan because she felt uncomfortable with what she said. She forced a smile at Song Lan and tugged at the corners of her mouth. The elevator doors slowly closed, and Song Lan stood at the elevator entrance, watching as it reached the first floor. She took out her phone and called Zhu Junqiao.
Zhu Junqiao is currently in the office dealing with the company's documents. During her absence, Mong Si did not take care of any company matters, resulting in a mess of things. Now Zhu Junqiao's desk is piled with documents.
She was too busy to take off. If it were Zhu Junjie, Zhu Junqiao could hold these documents and go to the office to find him, asking him to share some of the workload. But the other party was Mong Si...
Zhu Junqiao has looked over the information on Mong Si, but the data indicates that Mong Si hasn't received much education, and it's unclear what her cultural level is. One thing is certain: he cannot understand this information.
Mong Si has had a hard life these past few years, and now presenting these things to him is nothing but a form of torment.
Zhu Junqiao felt a deep sense of heartache for him. After losing herself in thought for a moment, she irritably tugged at her hair and continued to handle the documents in front of her.
Her phone on the desk rang, and when she saw the caller's name, she suddenly remembered that she had forgotten to tell Song Lan that she had brought Tong Tong back with her.
She put down her pen and picked up the phone. "Sister-in-law, you must be exhausted taking care of my brother in the hospital these past few days! Once I finish dealing with things at the company, I'll come and take over for you."
"Are you at the office now?"
"Yes! There are piles of documents like a little mountain, it's making me dizzy. Did you call me to ask about Tong Tong? She's at home right now, and my parents are taking care of her. Once I'm done here, I'll go home and take her to the hospital to see you."
Zhu Junqiao's words were flawless, and Song Lan couldn't find any reason to complain about her. The reason she called Zhu Junqiao was just to ask why she was in such a hurry to return to Hai City, without any intention of blaming her. "Mom has already taken Tong Tong to the hospital."
"Where's mom?"
"She just went back."
"Ah, you also saw it, mom is feeling down because of that person's matter."
Zhu's mother cares a lot about Mong Si, and Zhu Junqiao can see this from her expression and eyes.
"Is it because of Mom's return?"
"Otherwise? Mom told me that Dad had a fight with her because of this. My parents have a good relationship. I have never seen them argue since I was young. This time, they actually had a fight, and I missed such a rare scene!"
Song Lan: ...
Zhu Junqiao: Are you worried about Mom, or do you just want to see them argue and come back?
If our parents heard this, how do you think they would react?
Song Lan Laughing and crying, "You have a big heart. With such a big family issue, you still want to see your parents argue."
"A rare sight, perhaps this is the only argument they'll have in their lifetime."
Song Lan: ...
"Sister-in-law, the workload at the company is too much. Why don't you come and take over the company?"
Song Lan is capable and has her own set of principles for managing a company. If Gaoqing hands it over to her, the company's performance will definitely soar.
"What are you talking about! Gaoqing belongs to the Zhu Family; the helm of the company can only be held by you and Zhu Junjie."
"My sister-in-law has already become part of the Zhu Family in my heart." Zhu Junqiao and Zhu Junjie, the two siblings, lack ambition and have a laid-back attitude towards life, believing that as long as they can get by, it's enough. At the beginning of Zhu Junjie's pursuit of Song Lan, he already had the idea of handing over the company to Zhu Junqiao. Zhu Junqiao's perspective is to do her job well and not hold the company back, but she will never take on the company's banner.
Zou Mu is a popular artist, with a busy work schedule and various work locations. The two of them already have limited time together, and if she becomes even busier, they won't have time to spend together and communicate. No matter how good the relationship is, it will slowly fade over time. She finally got together with Zou Mu and will definitely not allow this to happen. She immediately rejected Zhu Junjie.
In the past year of sharing the workload with Zhu Junjie, she has considered many things and feels that it is more appropriate to hand over the company to Song Lan. However, in Hai-City, few family businesses hand over the management of the company to their daughters-in-law. She sees no problem with her idea, but if others were to find out, they would likely be surprised and puzzled. Furthermore, some may think that she doubts the abilities of Zhu Junjie.
