After being dismissed, Pei Donglai immediately moved out of the dormitory of the unit and rented a house with Zhang Yutong outside. Although Zhong Lan did not drive him away, he did not want people to gossip.
As soon as they moved home, Wu Jing called, "President Pei, Xiaobao and I want to come over and see you after get off work. Is it convenient?"
"It's nothing inconvenient. I'll be cooking for you. Come here early."
During this period of time, although he was dismissed from his post, Pei Donglai did not feel sad. Instead, he relaxed his tired body and mind. It was rare to rest for such a long time, and it was considered a long vacation for himself.
At the dinner table, Wu Jing reported to Pei Donglai about her recent work.
After finishing speaking, Pei Donglai said: "Wu Jing, don't report to me anymore. I'm no longer the president."
"In my heart, you are the president. President Pei, you don't know what they have done to the unit after you left? They put the interests of shareholders first in everything. Even Zhong Lan did not agree to buy work clothes for employees this year. , the food in the canteen is getting worse and worse. The previous benefits have been canceled or halved. Now everyone is very dissatisfied with the new leadership team. Last week, several employee representatives came to my office to report. I also told Zhong Lan reported it, but she didn't expect to be scolded by her. I got angry and had a big quarrel with her," Wu Jing said angrily.
"Wu Jing, you are also a member of the leadership team. You must unite and don't do this next time."
"President Pei, do you think Zhong Lan is right?" Wu Jing asked in confusion.
"If you can't change, just obey. At least you can keep your position as vice president."
"This vice president's job is so frustrating. Anyway, I don't want to do it anymore. I will apply for resignation tomorrow," Wu Jing said excitedly.
"Wu Jing, you are not young anymore and have been a leader for a while. Why are you still so impulsive? Making impulsive decisions is extremely stupid. You have to find a way to calm down, okay?"
"But I can't bear to see them doing this. I also heard that Zhong Lan proposed to make the new vice president Guo Yicheng the president. I have been in contact with that person and I don't understand anything. He is handsome and can coax women. , is said to be Zhong Lan’s boyfriend?”
"It's better to say well than to do well, just get used to it."
"Are you just watching them behave like this? President Pei."
"What can I do? I'm on bail now, and I might be taken in one day without even knowing it," Pei Donglai said with a wry smile.
"It was Zhong Lan who harmed you on purpose."
"So what? I can't do anything."
Wu Jing cried when she saw Pei Donglai looking indifferent.
After a long while, Wu Jing said: "President Pei, are you really going to give up?"
"Wu Jing, what you have to do now is to work hard, don't be too sharp, don't contradict the leader, just obey and do things, don't care about things you shouldn't care about, don't say things you shouldn't say, do you understand?"
Although Wu Jing didn't quite agree with Pei Donglai's statement, she could only nod in agreement.
"President Pei, do you need me to do anything?" Bao Desheng asked.
"Xiaobao, has Zixuan contacted you?"
Bao Desheng shook his head and said, "Not recently."
"If contacted, please notify me as soon as possible. Also, help me investigate a woman named Qin Shanshan. Later, you can ask Yu Lingling for information."
Bao Desheng nodded in agreement. After Pei Donglai was suspended, Bao Desheng resigned. He didn't want to work in a bank in the first place.
After Bao Desheng and Wu Jing left, Pei Donglai put away the dishes and cleaned up. During this period, he was like a standard househusband. He got up early every day to make breakfast for Zhang Yutong, sent her to work, and then went home to read and read. After exercising, I will buy groceries and cook until Zhang Yutong comes back.
"Donglai, are you going to lie down like this?"
"Isn't this bad? Times have changed. Nowadays, it is popular for women to play the outside role and men to play the role inside. Unless you dislike me."
"Why do I dislike you? You take care of me every day, and it's not too late for me to be happy." Zhang Yutong approached Pei Donglai coquettishly.
"Don't hold me so tightly, I'm still washing the dishes, wife."
"Let's wash it together."
"Okay, I can't bear to part with your tender white hands."
Zhang Yutong happily followed Pei Donglai to the kitchen, watching him lovingly wash dishes and chopsticks.
"Dong Lai, it would be great if you could take care of me like this all your life."
"Okay, as long as you can support me, I like this."
"Forget it, I know you won't give in. If you can really be a househusband for the rest of your life, I will be happy."
"I will make you happy, Yutong."
"What's your expression? You're weird." Zhang Yutong gave Pei Donglai a happy kick in the butt.
After cleaning up, Pei Donglai picked up Zhang Yutong, who was leaning on the sofa reading a book, "Honey, stop reading, it's time to do other things."
Pei Donglai picked up Zhang Yutong and walked into the bathroom.
"I have mysophobia, please don't be like this," Zhang Yutong complained coquettishly.
"Okay, okay, let me brush my teeth first to keep my breath fresh."
Then…
After an hour passed, the two returned to the room.
Zhang Yutong lay in Pei Donglai's arms with a red face and said coquettishly: "You are so annoying, don't do this next time."
"Well, it will definitely not be like this next time. I will sing and you will appear on the stage."
Zhang Yutong bit Pei Donglai hard and agreed.
The next day, on his way back from sending Zhang Yutong to work, Pei Donglai unexpectedly received a call from Zhong Lan, "President Pei, do you have time?"
"Chairman, what are your orders?"
"Let's have a meal at the Western restaurant near the work at noon, the same place we were there last time."
Near noon, Pei Donglai went to the Western restaurant to reserve a private room in advance. At around 12 o'clock, Zhong Lan walked into the private room with a boy.
"Let me introduce, this is the new vice president Guo Yicheng," Zhong Lan said.
Guo Yicheng is about 1.8 meters tall, has a handsome face, fair skin, and handsome appearance. He looks to be in his mid-twenties, a typical pretty boy.
"Hello, Mr. Guo," Pei Donglai spoke first.
"You are Pei Donglai, right? I have admired your name for a long time." Guo Yicheng did not shake hands with Pei Donglai, thinking of himself as aloof.
The three of them sat down and Zhong Lan exchanged greetings: "President Pei, after you left, all the work fell on me. I don't have time to treat you to a meal. I only have a little free time today. I'm sorry."
"Chairman, you are too polite. I have brought shame to the company. You even invited me to dinner in person. I am very ashamed."
Guo Yicheng looked up at Pei Donglai and said, "How is your case going? If there is any progress, report it to the unit in time."
"President Guo, I still understand this rule, thank you for reminding me," Pei Donglai said with a forced smile.
