As soon as these words came out, Nie Zheng couldn't help but want to laugh.

President Chongda doesn't like to make facial expressions, and he looked even more serious when he said this. There was a hint of indifference in his seriousness. He didn't look at all approachable.

"Okay, Mr. Chong."

Although the new anchors didn't believe that Chong Jianzhi was really approachable, they still nodded and agreed out of courtesy.

After opening the takeaway, everyone was a little reserved at first. Fortunately, Lou Fan was very good at livening up the atmosphere, and after making a few jokes, everyone relaxed a lot.

Chong Jianzhi didn't say much, and kept focusing on peeling shrimps. Facing Lou Fan's teasing, he didn't get angry or annoyed, and lowered his head to concentrate on picking the shrimp thread.

In less than a moment, he had already peeled a large bowl of shrimp meat. He snatched the shrimp that Nie Zheng had peeled in a mess and pushed the bowl of plump and translucent shrimp meat in front of her.

"Clumsy, eat it."

Nie Zheng blinked twice, her cheeks suddenly feeling hot. She tugged at the corner of his shirt without saying anything, but everything was self-explanatory.

This picture is so vivid that it almost makes pink bubbles appear in the eyes of others.

Chong Zong is too Su...

On the way home, Nie Zheng ate a lot and kept burping. She leaned back in the chair, rubbing her stomach while burping, looking a little funny.

"Brother, I feel bad..."

"Who told you to eat so much?"

While waiting for the traffic light, he rubbed her belly from behind. His broad palms transmitted his slightly warm body temperature, with a moderate force that made her feel particularly comfortable. She burped for a long time and felt a lot better.

"I went to a meeting today and met your teacher."

Nie Zheng was stunned for a moment and asked, "Is it... Mr. Jian?"

From childhood to adulthood, she had been taught by dozens of people, if not hundreds. But when it comes to teachers, the first person she thinks of is still Mr. Jian.

Five years ago, because of her status as the heir of Tangxiang, Mr. Chong invited Mr. Jian to teach her how to make incense. He taught her everything he knew and became her guide on the road of making incense.

Later, when I went to Zhanzhou to study at university, I met Mr. Jian several times. He said goodbye to her and went to Tibet to study, looking for the legendary fragrance that connected the earth and the heaven...

"He's back from Tibet?"

Chong Jianzhi nodded: "He just came back not long ago. He missed you very much and asked me how you were doing."

"Teacher, did you find something when you came back this time?"

Chong Jianzhi shook his head and said, "I don't know the details, but he came back this time for the incense-making competition."

She suddenly remembered that time passed so quickly and the incense-making competition held every four years was about to begin.

The preliminary round selection will be held at the end of the month. Chong Jianzhi met with representatives of the organizer of the competition in the morning. Mr. Jian, as a judge of this competition, also rushed back from Tibet. They all praised the incense products previously developed by Nie Zheng and looked forward to having her participate in this year's competition.

"Do you want to sign up for this incense-making competition?"

She was stunned by the question.

For all perfumers, the perfume making competition is the best way to prove themselves. In previous perfume making competitions, many young perfumers became famous in the competition, and since then they have gained both fame and fortune, and their future is bright.

Can……

"I know you're under pressure." Chong Jianzhi immediately revealed her hesitation. "As the successor of Tangxiang and the head of Touyun's R&D department, if you lose in the incense-making competition, everyone will say that you are not qualified for the position. Not only that, it will also have a negative impact on Touyun."

She nodded. Her brother always knew her best.

"Brother, if I participate in the competition, I must not lose."

The car stopped downstairs of the community. Chong Jianzhi did not rush to get out of the car, but continued to gently rub her belly.

"You're not right."

Nie Zheng turned around and looked at him in confusion, waiting for what to say next.

Chong Jianzhi spoke slowly and gently, with a firm strength in his voice: "You can lose."

"but I……"

He held her hand, and his warm fingertips swept across her knuckles, squeezing them gently with full comfort.

"The result doesn't matter, you just have to do what you think is right. It's just a game, it's no big deal."

His voice was like a big hand, soothing her anxious mood.

"Tell me if you have made up your mind. Whether you participate or not, I only have one request, which is to do what you want to do and don't force yourself."

"I've made up my mind." She held his big hand in return, and her words were more certain, "I'm going to participate in the competition."

"This year's incense-making competition will have two venues, the Ningjiang branch venue and the Bei'an main venue. The preliminary and semi-finals can be held in Ningjiang, and all contestants in the finals will go to Bei'an. I checked the time, the finals will be at the end of next month, and I should have nothing to do during those days, so I can go with you."

I heard Chong Jianzhi planning his time in an orderly manner and saying that he would be there to cheer for him during the finals.

The lights in the car were dim, and the strands of hair on his forehead cast mottled shadows on his face. His three-dimensional, sculptured facial features looked like they came out of a comic book, so perfect that one couldn't take their eyes away.

She liked to see him being serious and speaking in an orderly manner, as if everything was under his control. At this moment, Chong Jianzhi was...especially sexy.

"elder brother."

He looked up and their eyes suddenly met. Before he could react, she leaned over, put her arms around his shoulders, and gently kissed him on the cheek.

The movement was too fast. He wanted to grab her arm and pull her into his arms again, but she had already shrunk back into her seat with a sly smile on her face.

"What are you doing? Just kiss and run away."

Chong Jianzhi's tone was helpless but also a little bit forbearing. If they were not in the car, he was afraid that his movements would be too big and would bump into her...

"Brother, how did you know I would make it to the finals?" She obviously lacked confidence and shook her head, "Don't have too high expectations of me. The greater the confidence, the greater the disappointment."

Chong Jianzhi was still immersed in the light kiss just now. Seeing her smiling at him, which made her beautiful face more vivid, he couldn't help but feel distracted. He stared at her long neck like a hungry vampire, wanting to leave his own mark on that fair skin.

"elder brother?"

Another call brought him back to his senses. He looked away, but his heart was still not at peace.

He coughed twice to cover up his distraction and replied, "Rather than saying I have confidence in you, I understand you and your strength."

Nie Zheng leaned back in her chair, a little dazed, her heart was in turmoil and she was very nervous.

She had never participated in such a competition. She had always competed with herself in making incense. Doing her best within her ability was her standard for making incense.

If she were put together with others, they would inevitably have to determine who was better. She had never been compared in this way before. Faced with Chong Jianzhi's unconditional support and trust, she naturally had no confidence.

Seeing her lack of confidence, Chong Jianzhi raised his hand and touched her head, saying, "Please make time on the weekend. I'll take you to meet someone."

"Meeting whom?"

He didn't give a direct answer, but kept her in suspense. He raised his hand and touched his lips, smiled faintly, and made a condition to her: "Kiss me and I'll tell you."
