"Yes, it's red wine, also brought by Zhou Chen."
When Qiao Zuwang heard this, he immediately scolded him, "Yicheng, look at you, we are celebrating for you, but why is it that Zhou Chen is the one buying and bringing things for you? You have no manners at all."
What could Qiao Yicheng do? He just listened. As for the others, no one said anything.
Qiao Zuwang said to himself, "I haven't drunk red wine yet. I want to try it today. Erqiang, come and fill my glass."
Qiao Erqiang walked over with red wine and poured a whole glass for Qiao Zuwang.
With the addition of Qiao Zuwang, the atmosphere in the box suddenly became less harmonious. The people who were just playing around also quieted down and watched Qiao Zuwang's performance.
Although Qiao Zuwang tried his best to stir up the atmosphere, his presence was the biggest obstacle. Everyone was very quiet during the meal and didn't talk much. He was basically the only one talking.
After the meal, a small half of the bottles of red wine that Zhou Chen brought went into Qiao Zuwang's stomach. Even though Qiao Zuwang had a good alcohol tolerance, he was still quite drunk after drinking so much red wine. He started to talk incoherently and his tongue was tied.
There was no other choice, the Qiao brothers and sisters could only send Qiao Zuwang home, still in Zhou Chen's car. Zhou Chen drove, and Qiao Yicheng supported Qiao Zuwang from behind.
Qiao Erqiang and Qiao Simei took a bus back to the factory by themselves. They had asked for leave today.
Qi Weimin and his group were the last to leave.
"Wei Min, is there something wrong at home, Senior Brother?"
After everyone left, Chang Xingyu couldn't help but ask Qi Weimin.
Qi Weimin sighed slightly and said, "There are some problems in their family. It has not been easy for Yicheng these years..."
As the two talked, they took Qiao Qiqi and left Jinling Hotel.
The day passed quickly, and the next morning, Qiao Yicheng got up early.
To be precise, he didn't sleep well last night. Not only was he disturbed by his father's snoring, but he was also unable to sleep because of excitement.
So he got up before dawn and sorted out the suit that Zhou Chen gave him over and over again.
What he said yesterday was true, but he really liked the suit Zhou Chen gave him. This suit was the most expensive suit he had ever worn in his life. In his opinion, it also meant that he had a new beginning.
Erqiang and Simei were not at home, so Sanli was the one who made breakfast today.
"Brother, breakfast is ready and we can eat it right away."
"Thank you, Sanli."
"This is what I should do, brother. You eat first. I'll help you tie your tie later. Zhou Chen will be here soon. After you finish eating, we'll take you to the TV station."
When Qiao Yicheng heard this, he immediately refused: "No, why did you ask him to take me? It's too troublesome. No, I can take a car by myself."
Qiao Sanli: "No, I already made it clear with Zhou Chen yesterday. Today is your first day at the TV station, so you have to be formal. If you take a car, it will be troublesome if you waste time. It just so happens that Zhou Chen and I are both free, so we can take you to the TV station."
"you……"
"Okay, big brother, stop talking and eat quickly. It's getting late."
Qiao Yicheng had no choice but to agree.
Zhou Chen arrived before they finished their meal. As soon as Qiao Yicheng greeted him, he saw his sister pulling Zhou Chen aside. No one knew what they were talking about.
"Okay, I've eaten, and it's getting late, so why don't I just take the bus myself."
"Don't, brother."
Qiao Sanli stopped Qiao Yicheng and said, "Don't worry, brother. Zhou Chen is here, just take his car. Oh, I have something to give you."
As she spoke, she took out a packaging box and handed it to Qiao Yicheng.
"Is this a pager?"
When Qiao Yicheng saw the packaging box, he was immediately surprised. It was a famous brand and must be expensive.
Qiao Sanli smiled and said, "Yes, brother, this is the pager I gave you, so that it will be convenient for us to contact each other in the future."
"Girl, why are you spending money recklessly? You don't have to buy it for me, I can buy it myself."
Qiao Yicheng was touched. His elder sister was sensible and kind, and always thought of him when she had good things. He knew that this pager must have been bought by his sister with her own money, otherwise she would not be embarrassed to give it to him.
"It's okay, big brother. This is a gift from me to you. When you have money in the future, you can buy me a gift."
"This is a token of my love, you can't refuse it."
Qiao Yicheng held the pager in his hand and felt it was heavy.
"Okay, Sanli, thank you, brother."
(End of this chapter)
Chapter 503 Qiao Simei is in trouble
In front of the Jinling TV building, Qiao Sanli vigorously waved at Qiao Yicheng: "Brother, come on."
Qiao Yicheng, carrying his bag, turned around and waved at Qiao Sanli: "I understand, Sanli, you guys go back first."
Watching Qiao Yicheng walk briskly into the TV station building, Zhou Chen comforted him, "Sanli, your brother is capable and will definitely be hired smoothly. You don't have to worry so much."
Qiao Yicheng likes to worry about his younger siblings, and Qiao Sanli is a bit like Qiao Yicheng, but what makes her better than Qiao Yicheng is that she doesn't have his excessive self-esteem.
"I hope big brother can have a good life at the TV station."
Qiao Sanli took one last look, closed the car window, and said to Zhou Chen, "Let's go back."
Zhou Chen said, "Why go back? The weather is so nice, let's go shopping in the surrounding malls."
Because it was a holiday, Qiao Sanli did not refuse and happily went shopping in the mall with Zhou Chen.
As a few months passed, the relationship between Zhou Chen and Qiao Sanli heated up rapidly. They already had a foundation for love, and after they broke the window paper and opened their hearts, their feelings naturally improved rapidly. If they hadn't had some reservations, they would have wanted to stick together every day.
Although Qiao Sanli is not as love-brained as Qiao Simei, when she meets someone she likes, she is wholeheartedly devoted to Zhou Chen and treats him well with all her heart.
Zhou Chen, on the other hand, also felt sorry for Qiao Sanli and always considered her well.
The way two people get along with each other is discovered through daily contact. They have known each other for so many years and understand each other very well, so their emotional foundation is far beyond that of normal couples.
In the blink of an eye, several months had passed since Qiao Yicheng joined the TV station.
Zhou Chen and Qiao Sanli were having dinner together that day, and suddenly Qiao Sanli said, "I went home a few days ago and found that our house had changed."
"what happened?"
Zhou Chen asked curiously. He had been living in school recently and had no idea about the current situation of the Qiao family.
However, Qiao Zuwang is the only one left in the Qiao family now, so he wouldn't care.
Now Qiao Yicheng works at a TV station. He rents a small one-bedroom apartment not far from the TV station and lives a pretty good life.
Qiao Erqiang and Qiao Simei lived in the factory and seldom went home.
Qiao Sanli: "When I went home that day, I saw a lot of people going to my house. Many people wanted to give money to my dad, saying it was to make money or something. I asked my dad, but he didn't tell me. He just said he was going to get rich, and when he had money, he wouldn't care about us giving him money. I don't know what he's doing recently."
When Zhou Chen heard what Qiao Sanli said, he immediately guessed Qiao Zuwang's situation. This future father-in-law must be following his bad friend to raise funds.
Although Zhou Chen knew that Qiao Zuwang would have to pay a huge amount of money in the end and offend many neighbors, he had no intention of helping.
Firstly, he and Qiao Zuwang had a bad relationship to begin with, and Qiao Zuwang was a scumbag, so why should he help him?
Don't talk about future father-in-law or anything like that. I'm not a saint. Qiao Zuwang always confronts him and spits in his face. Only a person with a mental disorder would help him.
Having lived for so many years and in so many worlds, he has neither become a villain without any bottom line, nor a saint with her own light. He is just an ordinary person, a little selfish, a little lustful, and a little vindictive...
Secondly, even if he told Qiao Sanli, with Qiao Zuwang's personality, he would never listen to their advice. When his eyes are blinded by interests, no matter how hard others try to wake him up, it will be of no avail.
What's more, Qiao Zuwang deserved to be cheated. He remembered that Qiao Zuwang had been cheated by his bad friend more than once or twice, but in the end she was fooled. It was her own fault and she couldn't blame others.
"If you can't figure it out, forget about it. Although your dad is a scoundrel, he's not stupid. Besides, if he wants to do something, do you think any of you brothers and sisters can stop him?"
When Qiao Sanli thought about it, it was true. She was not saying anything bad about her father, but her father was really unreliable and would not listen to any advice at all. Not to mention her, even if her eldest brother tried to persuade him, he probably would not listen and would scold her instead.
"Forget it. I don't care anymore. No matter what he wants to do, as long as it's not against the law, it's fine. With his courage, I guess he wouldn't dare to do anything against the law."
Zhou Chen also smiled happily after hearing this. Indeed, although Qiao Zuwang was usually very domineering at home, he would become naughty and act like a spoiled child outside. When he met a powerful master, he would not dare to provoke him, let alone do anything illegal.
"Sanli, is the new kid I found for you obedient?"
Qiao Sanli is now working as a part-time tutor. Zhou Chen found this employer for her, and Zhou Chen only let her take the job after some investigation.
Qiao Sanli nodded and said, "Well, the little girl is very well behaved and serious."
"That's good. I was thinking that if you can't get along well, I'll help you contact another one."
Zhou Chen was also completely relieved. After all, he had only inquired before, but now that Qiao Sanli had experienced it personally, he naturally felt more reassured.
Zhou Chen still admires Qiao Sanli's self-reliant character very much. A woman cannot be idle, and a diligent and hardworking woman will be more liked by men.
Although Zhou Chen is not a male chauvinist, he certainly doesn't like lazy and sloppy women.
As a man, he can help with housework and take care of the family, but it is simply impossible to expect him to do so every day.
Although we now emphasize gender equality, we have to admit that men do have much greater advantages than women when it comes to work and making money; and when it comes to taking care of the family and educating children, men are definitely not as good as women.
If a family wants to live a happy and fulfilling life, the division of labor must be clear. They don't need to pay attention to every little thing, but they must make adjustments in the big things.
Before he finished his meal, the mobile phone next to him suddenly rang, and Zhou Chen picked up the phone and answered it.
"Hey……"
A minute later, Zhou Chen said to Qiao Sanli, who was looking at him curiously, "Sanli, your sister Simei caused trouble in the factory."
"what?"
When Qiao Sanli heard this, her expression suddenly became tense: "What happened to Simei? What happened?"
Zhou Chen comforted her, "She's fine. Manager Yang from the factory called me just now. By the way, Manager Yang is Simei's direct supervisor. She said that Simei has been in close contact with a man in the factory these days, and it has seriously affected her work."
Qiao Sanli's face turned ugly after hearing this: "Si Mei is in love? But even if she is in love, it shouldn't interfere with her work. This damn girl, I must tell my brother and let him teach her a lesson."
Qiao Erqiang and Qiao Simei have both worked at Chenxing Textile Factory for more than half a year. Qiao Erqiang has performed relatively well. Although his position has not changed, his boss has given Zhou Chen good feedback.
As for Qiao Simei, she cannot compare to Qiao Erqiang. Although she is also working, she is not really working hard. To put it bluntly, she is just messing around at work every day, not paying attention and not working hard, but she doesn't make any mistakes either. She feels a bit like Qiao Zuwang at work.
If an ordinary worker had acted like this, he would have been complained and scolded by his superiors long ago. However, Qiao Simei's immediate superior, Manager Yang, knew that Qiao Simei might become the sister-in-law of the boss's son in the future, so he was very tolerant of her. Apart from reporting to Zhou Chen occasionally, he did not say anything bad about Qiao Simei.
But I called you today because Qiao Simei made a serious mistake, and it caused a very bad impact.
"Hurry up and finish eating. We'll go to the factory later to see what's going on."
Qiao Sanli, who was worried about Qiao Simei, lost her appetite after eating a few bites. The two of them picked up their food and drove to Chenxing Textile Factory.
As the boss's son, Zhou Chen often came back, so the guard at the gate naturally knew him and let him into the factory directly.
After arriving at the factory, Zhou Chen took Qiao Sanli straight to the accounting department.
After passing through a public office, Zhou Chen and Qiao Sanli arrived at Manager Yang's office, and immediately saw the pitiful Qiao Simei standing in the office.
In the office, a middle-aged woman was working. When she saw Zhou Chen knocking on the door, she immediately stood up and said, "Mr. Zhou."
Manager Yang is also a middle-level senior manager in the factory. She is naturally familiar with Zhou Chen. She has even heard from some old people in the factory that Chenxing’s development to this day has a lot to do with this young master Zhou. Even Boss Zhou’s acquisition of the textile factory was the result of the advice of this young master Zhou.
Even if she had not heard these rumors, she would not dare to slack off towards Zhou Chen, the son of a big boss.
"Manager Yang, this is my girlfriend, Qiao Sanli, who is also Qiao Simei's sister."
Zhou Chen did not ask about the matter first, but introduced Qiao Sanli to Manager Yang.
When Manager Yang heard Zhou Chen's introduction, he immediately extended his hand to Qiao Sanli and said politely, "Hello, Miss Qiao."
Qiao Sanli was also very polite: "Hello, Manager Yang, I'm sorry that Simei has caused you trouble."
Manager Yang quickly said, "It's not a big problem, but it has some impact, and the matter is quite complicated."
Zhou Chen asked: "Manager Yang, you didn't explain clearly on the phone just now. What happened? What happened to Simei?"
When Zhou Chen and Qiao Sanli came in, Qiao Simei kept winking at them, but neither Zhou Chen nor Qiao Sanli paid any attention to her. Qiao Sanli even glared at him angrily.
Manager Yang glanced at Qiao Simei, then glanced at Zhou Chen and Qiao Sanli, and then told them the cause of the incident.
The matter was actually not complicated. Qiao Simei was flirting with a man in the production workshop of the factory. Qiao Simei left her post many times during working hours and ran to the production workshop to flirt with that man, which affected the work in the workshop and she was complained by the workshop director for this.
The situation was even worse today. These two people were actually more than an hour late, and no one knew where they went to play. When they finally entered the factory, they were stopped by the security department, who called the department and workshop.
"Mr. Zhou, if it was a normal relationship, we wouldn't stop them, but their behavior has seriously affected their work. It's okay once or twice, but if it keeps going on, it will have a big impact on the factory."
Manager Yang was also helpless. If it weren't for her relationship with Zhou Chen, she would have kicked Qiao Simei away long ago.
Qiao Sanli looked very unhappy and kept apologizing: "Manager Yang, I'm so sorry. My sister is young and ignorant. She made a mistake and deserves to be punished. You can punish her however you want. We promise not to argue."
Manager Yang naturally had to give face to Qiao Sanli, and she sighed.
"Ms. Qiao, Simei is very young, and it's normal for her to like to play, but work is work, and I've told her several times that she had no other choice but to call you, Mr. Zhou."
