I rejected your confession, but you took my best friend home?

Chapter 455 You need to be careful... unless you want a second child.

"Ugh..."

"Cough cough, phew—, all done, time to go home!"

Tang Zhi turned off her computer and tidied her desk. Now, she was alone in the large office.

The sun is setting outside; it will be dark soon.

She actually got off work late today because she had to help Zhou Heng with some things. Zhou Heng left early to pick up Yin Mengran, so he had to temporarily hand over his work to Tang Zhi.

Tang Zhi didn't care. Anyway, she would only be alone when she went back, and there was no point in staying there. Working at the company was fine too.

"What should we eat tonight... I don't want to cook, I'm too tired. Should we eat out or order takeout?"

Tang Zhi was lost in thought. After packing her things, she put on her coat, slung her bag over her shoulder, and left the office.

I had only taken a few steps out of the office when a man appeared in front of me, just as he was passing by.

There weren't many people passing by on this floor. Tang Zhi looked up and saw that it was Zhou Heng's father, Zhou Junyao.

"Uncle, you haven't gotten off work yet?"

Tang Zhi stood still and said something to Zhou Junyao.

When Zhou Junyao saw Tang Zhi, he stopped, nodded, and said, "Ah, you're leaving soon? You just got off work too? Where's Zhou Heng?"

"My brother left a long time ago, he went to Huzhou. He has a date today."

"Yeah, I've pushed the work onto you again, haven't I? You've had a tough time."

Tang Zhi shook her head repeatedly and said:

"No, no, no, it's not hard at all. Besides, it's nothing. We're all family, it's what I should do."

"That's true. Your mother called me a few days ago and asked how you were doing. She said if you weren't doing well, she would let you go home and not have to feel embarrassed for the sake of family. I said you did very well, you were unexpectedly excellent. Now, even if you want to leave, I don't want to let you go."

"Ahaha... This... is a bit embarrassing, but I will definitely try my best. If even I think I'm not performing well, then I will definitely leave on my own initiative. I can't possibly occupy this position."

Tang Zhi scratched her head awkwardly, looking somewhat embarrassed.

Zhou Junyao nodded in satisfaction and continued, "Well, then I'll have to trouble you. Help Zhou Heng a lot. Once he takes my place, your help will be indispensable. Oh, by the way, where do you live now? How do you commute to and from get off work every day?"

"Uh... I rented a place in the south because there was nowhere else to stay around here. Every day... I drive to work, which takes about 20 minutes."

Tang Zhi thought of her own apartment where she lived alone. Although the decor and size were quite satisfactory,

But living alone, coming home to such a big house...

Even if she doesn't care about companionship, she will still feel a little lonely.

There was nothing she could do; she couldn't find a more suitable place to live. She didn't want to live in anything too small, and it was too far from her company, taking her a long time to get to work every day.

Zhou Junyao stroked his chin and said:

"Oh no, that won't do. That's too much trouble. Why didn't Zhou Heng help you with that? The company has houses for employees. They're new and fully furnished. It's only a seven or eight-minute walk to them every day. Here's what you do: go and take care of this tomorrow, then just pick one you like and move in. We have our own house, why live outside? It's so much trouble."

"This...isn't that a bit inappropriate? Maybe we shouldn't..."

“What’s wrong with that? We’re all family. You work here, so I have to take good care of you. Otherwise, how can I explain it to your mother? Right? I’ll issue you the documents tomorrow, and then you can go and handle this matter. Got it?”

After Zhou Junyao finished speaking, he left and took the elevator down.

Tang Zhi stood there, a smile playing on her lips, feeling much better.

She arrived at the company lobby, ready to leave, when suddenly her eyes caught sight of a familiar figure at the front desk.

"Eh?"

Tang Zhi smiled, walked over, and before the person could react, patted her on the shoulder, startling her...

"what!"

She gasped, her whole body trembled, and she turned around to see Tang Zhi behind her.

"Oh, it's Tang Zhi... You scared me to death."

"What are you doing here?"

Tang Zhi laughed when she saw her reaction.

The person in front of me is Jing Yu, who is currently a very famous star. She recently held a concert, which was a great success and boosted her popularity to new heights.

"I...I'm here to take care of some things. What a coincidence to run into you here. Did you just get off work?"

After Jing Yu regained his senses, he smiled, reached out and grabbed Tang Zhi's arm, and said.

"Yeah, I'm getting ready to go home," Tang Zhi said casually, shrugging her shoulders.

"It's so rare to run into you here, how about I treat you to dinner?"

"Wow, you're such a big star, you still have time to treat me to dinner?"

"I'm free today! Besides, you're busier than me, okay? These days, I have to make an appointment to invite you to dinner, right?"

"It's not that exaggerated." Tang Zhi waved her hand and smiled.

"So you're saying yes? I've been so busy lately, I've missed you guys so much, it's been so long since I've hung out with my friends."

Jing Yu shook Tang Zhi's arm, as if she were being coquettish. Tang Zhi was somewhat helpless at being shaken like that.

"Okay, okay, why don't you come to my place then? I'll cook, okay?"

"Really? Great!"

Jing Yu nodded repeatedly, a look of surprise on his face.

Tang Zhi smiled, took Jing Yu's arm, and was about to lead her away when she looked at her and asked:

"Let's go. By the way, do you know how to play video games?"

Jing Yu paused for a moment, then replied, "Ah... I rarely play games."

"It's okay, I'll teach you. Play with me for a while after you finish eating."

"Hmm...okay! Shall we buy some more snacks to take back with us?"

"Good idea, let's go to the mall now."

"yeah!"

----

"Hello? Yes, Mommy, is the baby fussy?"

"Ah, it's good that there's no trouble. Hmm... Zhou Heng and I are still outside. Okay, I understand."

That evening, Yin Mengran hung up the phone with Liu Wei in her car, looked at Zhou Heng, and said:

"Mom said that our son is very obedient and didn't make a fuss at all. She told us to have fun and not to rush back."

They went out for a candlelight dinner, strolled along the beach, and had a great time. Yin Mengran was in an extremely good mood...

Zhou Heng grasped Yin Mengran's hand and tentatively whispered:

"Then...we're not going back tonight? My mom can watch the baby for the night, that shouldn't be a big problem, right?"

Yin Mengran felt Zhou Heng's grip tighten, and she instantly understood what he meant. Her face flushed crimson, all the way to her ears, and her heart pounded faster...

Yin Mengran thought about it carefully, and realized that they hadn't been intimate since she became pregnant...

Now... a long time has passed.

Yin Mengran nodded gently and whispered, "Hmm... okay, but... you have to be careful... unless you want a second child."

"Hehehe... I got it..."
