Chapter 505: Another New Member Added (Part 2)
Zheng Yanyan pouted as soon as she heard she'd have to give up Zhou Yuwen: "Ah? This isn't a problem though."
"Come on, you've already spent plenty of nights with Zhou Yuwen, give someone else some alone time with him."
"Boo hoo hoo~"
No matter how much Zheng Yanyan disagreed, she was still dragged away by Lu Lin.
So that night, it was Zhou Yuwen who held Shen Yu as they slept.
Zhou Yuwen was exceptionally gentle that night, which made Shen Yu feel much at ease.
After their exercise, Shen Yu's face was flushed, and she wrapped her snow-white arms around Zhou Yuwen, looking blissfully content as she lay in his embrace.
Zhou Yuwen patted Shen Yu's head and asked how she was doing?
"Can you adapt to this kind of life?"
Shen Yu said it's fine.
"I never noticed before, but I find Linlin is really so much more mature than us. She's really like a big sister; she does so many things secretly that I never even thought of."
Zhou Yuwen said in response, "She's always been like this, you'll understand gradually in the future."
"Yanyan may be a bit noisy, but she doesn't have a bad heart. Just treat her like a little sister. Having you here is like bridging the gap," Zhou Yuwen said, patting Shen Yu's head again.
"Mm..."
Shen Yu buried her head in Zhou Yuwen's chest and softly agreed.
So Zhou Yuwen hugged Shen Yu tightly and said, "Let's sleep."
And they both fell into a deep sleep like that.
When daylight broke the next morning, Zhou Yuwen felt his arms empty and frowned, opening his eyes to find Shen Yu nowhere to be seen again, wondering what on earth had happened this time?
Could it be that another one had run off?
After quickly putting on some clothes, Zhou Yuwen got up and went out the door.
Just as he opened the door, he caught the aroma of fresh breakfast soup. The eight o'clock sun shone brightly through the balcony, illuminating the room, and the dining table was covered with a variety of breakfasts — not just buns, fried dough sticks, and bread, but even sandwiches.
Looking over towards the open kitchen, there he saw Shen Yu, not yet having had time to tie her hair, wearing the cotton pajamas she bought last night, with an apron over them, busying herself.
Seeing Zhou Yuwen coming over, she immediately gave him a smile and said, "You're up?"
At this point, Zheng Yanyan and Lu Lin also came out, with Zheng Yanyan stretching and saying, Haha, I'm so sleepy~
"What smells so good?"
As soon as she said this, she noticed the variety of breakfasts laid out on the table and saw Shen Yu over by the sandwiches. Zheng Yanyan couldn't help but sincerely praise, "Wow, Shen Yu, did you really make all this? It's too much!"
Shen Yu got a bit shy from the compliment and said no, she ordered it for delivery.
"I just cut the sandwiches..."
Everyone sat down, and Zhou Yuwen said, you don't have to make so much, we can't finish it.
"These two usually don't have the habit of eating breakfast."
Lu Lin said that's not true.
"I don't eat breakfast because there isn't any, if there was some, I wouldn't mind eating a little."
Zhou Yuwen said, what kind of talk is that.
"Can't you make it yourself if there's none?"
"Exactly! Look at Shen Yu." Zheng Yanyan quickly chimed in.
Lu Lin retorted, you're in no position to criticize me.
"Did I make it for you to eat? Dream on."
Zheng Yanyan chuckled.
At this moment, Shen Yu came over with the last sandwich, smiling and saying it's no problem.
"I can make breakfast from now on."
"Oh my gosh, Shen Yu, you're too kind! I knew marrying you was the right choice! So happy!" Zheng Yanyan showered her with more compliments.
Zhou Yuwen said, so you brought Shen Yu over just to cook for you?
Zheng Yanyan chuckled, planning to brush it off.
But Zhou Yuwen wasn't about to let her off so easily, telling Shen Yu she doesn't need to work so hard.
"I brought you here to enjoy life, not to be their servant. Either everyone takes turns on different days, or no one does anything," Zhou Yuwen said as he pulled Shen Yu over to sit down.
Lu Lin said, "I have no objections to taking turns."
"Boo hoo, Linlin, are you going to betray me?" Zheng Yanyan looked pitifully.
Lu Lin said this isn't a betrayal; it's to build your skills.
Zheng Yanyan was still unhappy, but her unhappiness made others laugh. After breakfast, Zhou Yuwen asked Shen Yu to come to work with him.
"Huh? Me, go to work? But I don't know anything." Shen Yu was pleasantly surprised.
Zhou Yuwen said you can learn gradually.
"Cooking can be left to them. You should focus on the company matters. I wanted to train them, but they can't rise up the ranks. I'll rely on you in the future," Zhou Yuwen said to Shen Yu.
"Um," Shen Yu felt a bit embarrassed after hearing this and glanced at Lu Lin and Zheng Yanyan.
Lu Lin said, "Go ahead, I'll give up my spot for you."
"Yeah, Yu Yu, I'm telling you, you're representing me and Linlin, don't let Tao Dalei and their group defeat you!" Zheng Yanyan encouraged.
Zhou Yuwen said there are no sides here; we're all sisters.
Zheng Yanyan giggled without further comment.
Zhou Yuwen told Shen Yu to change clothes, he'd take her to the company.
They had just bought a suit and a pair of small heels yesterday, perfect for Shen Yu to wear.
Actually, Shen Yu is quite an ambitious girl, more suited for the workplace than staying at home, and Zhou Yuwen knew this.
Just like Zhou Yuwen said, except for marriage which he couldn't give, he would do his best to help these girls in other aspects.
So before long, Shen Yu came out dressed in that well-fitting light-colored suit. Standing at 163 cm, she was slightly shorter than the other girls, but her figure was decent. With a pair of three-centimeter heels under her suit pants, she indeed had the aura of a career woman, with a sweet, secretary-like smile.
Zhou Yuwen drove his Porsche to take her to the company.
On the way, Zhou Yuwen mentioned that he'd better get Shen Yu a car for convenience for work.
Shen Yu said there's no need, she can take the subway.
Zhou Yuwen said, "You're with me; I won't have you taking the subway."
Hearing this, Shen Yu was truly a little embarrassed.
But Zhou Yuwen assured her there's no need to feel embarrassed, she'd get used to it over time.
Taking the elevator from the underground parking lot, there was no one inside. When they reached the first floor, the elevator doors opened.
A group of young women heading to work saw Zhou Yuwen standing inside and quickly greeted him, all calling him Mr. Zhou.
Zhou Yuwen wasn't one for formalities. At such a time when people might be late for work, Zhou Yuwen would let them join him in the elevator, just nodding, and they sensibly kept a distance from him.
Shen Yu followed Zhou Yuwen the entire time, only now did she truly realize how Zhou Yuwen differed from regular students. She thought to herself that Zhou Yuwen had already grown to this level, seeing his tall stature, and she knew she must work hard as she would be Zhou Yuwen's woman in the future.
After exiting the elevator, the first person they saw was Tao Tian. Tao Tian, now in a high-ranking position at the company, was well-respected by many due to her abilities and was growing into more of an elegant, noble presence.
Seeing Zhou Yuwen approach, Tao Tian walked up with a smile and greeted him.
Zhou Yuwen nodded, then gestured to Tao Tian about Shen Yu, saying, "This is Shen Yu, you've met her before. Show her through the onboarding process; she can be my secretary for now."
"Another secretary?" Tao Tian was a bit surprised upon seeing Shen Yu, but given Shen Yu's expression, she could guess a bit.
However, arranging for a secretary was no big deal.
The issue was, they had just arranged one yesterday.
And now, today again.
"Um, what about Li Shiqi who joined yesterday?" Tao Tian tentatively asked.
Talking about Li Shiqi, Zhou Yuwen felt a headache coming on.
Zhou Yuwen asked, "Where is she now?"
"She's already in your office. The young lady is quite diligent," Tao Tian said with a bright smile.
