After I was kicked out by the benefactor

This sentence made Xu Shuming's fingers on the table tremble slightly for an instant, Zhong Wentian would not know what this sentence meant.He clasped his fingers, raised his head as if nothing had happened, and looked at Zhong Wentian.

Zhong Wentian was still looking at him, as if waiting for his reply, still looking forward to it.

Xu Shuming and him looked at each other for a while, then turned his eyes, and said, "I'm a work assistant, how dare I intervene in Mr. Zhong's private affairs."

After he finished speaking, he tilted his head to avoid Zhong Wentian's fingers, stood up from his seat, lowered his eyelashes and said:

"Today, some urgent documents will be sent from China. I'll go and have a look. Don't bother Mr. Zhong."

"Shuming—" Zhong Wentian stared at his dodged fingers, and was taken aback for a moment, then saw Xu Shuming turn around and leave without looking back.

Xu Shuming walked in a hurry, turning a deaf ear to Zhong Wentian's cry.The restaurant where they ate was a public place. Zhong Wentian called him, and many people looked sideways. Xu Shuming pretended not to hear, and he could only watch him leave.

It wasn't until Xu Shuming's back completely disappeared from sight that Zhong Wentian shook his head, looked at the empty seat where Xu Shuming was sitting just now, and smiled.

"You're so thin-skinned, this makes you angry from embarrassment."

Over there, when Xu Shuming returned, he didn't know that Zhong Wentian thought of him so much. He just didn't want Zhong Wentian to interfere in his grievances with Yuan Chuchuan.

What is that? ——His parents' hatred, when will it be someone else's turn to speak out.

It's probably because his expression is a bit ugly now, when Bai Yue bumped into him head-on, he was going to say a few witty words and make fun of him, but his voice got stuck in his throat and he didn't say a word.

It was Xu Shuming who took a step back, came back to his senses, and saw that it was Bai Yue, so he regained his expression and said, "Mr. Bai, why are you in such a hurry? Mr. Zhong has just finished breakfast. You go at the right time, so don't be in such a hurry."

If Bai Yue hadn't clearly remembered Xu Shuming's expressionless face just now, he must have almost thought that he had read it wrong.He looked forward to Ai Ai, and kept looking at Xu Shuming with his eyes. Seeing that Xu Shuming was indeed still the same as before, he was relieved and said tentatively:

"Assistant Xu, your complexion doesn't look too good... Is it——Mr. Zhong said something?"

Bai Yue only met Xu Shuming once in the morning, when Xu Shuming suddenly asked him about Yuan Chuchuan's news, Bai Yue naturally told him all the news he had received.In particular, he mentioned the important role he played in it. He didn't dare to delay the matter that Xu Shuming told him before, and he did his best to complete it.

Yuan Chuchuan's manager, Ding Youyang, had no other channels to find out about Zhong Wentian's affairs, and even had some unhappiness with Bai Yue. Even before, Yuan Chuchuan respected Bai Yue quite a bit, but Ding Youyang never thought that Bai Yue had already fallen for him. He even helped Xu Shuming do something that was not good for Yuan Chuchuan.

After hearing Bai Yue's words, Xu Shuming immediately showed a proper expression of gratitude, and said to Bai Yue: "Mr. Bai is indeed an old man who has served Mr. Zhong for so long, and your efficiency is the most reassuring. I would like to thank Mr. Bai first. I will remember your help in my heart."

When Bai Yue heard Xu Shuming's kind words, he immediately felt relieved.Although Xu Shuming had to act under coercion, but Xu Shuming's ability to say such a thing after the incident was completed was enough to make him feel relieved.

Being able to remember the good things of others is the only way to keep coming and going.

However, looking at the person who was still in good spirits in the morning, Bai Yue was very curious because he had an ugly face after having breakfast with the boss.

He was going to see Zhong Wentian later, if the boss was in a bad mood, he would have to figure out how he died, right?

Xu Shuming himself was in a bad mood, and when Bai Yue asked him, he began to think about Zhong Wentian.In the past, he would not have dared to show such a face to Zhong Wentian.Turn around and leave?This is definitely not a docile gesture, if it is overdone and offends Zhong Wentian, it will not be worth the loss.

However, after another two days, he was completely relieved.

What does Zhong Wentian's emotions have to do with him?

There are so many people in this world who want to care about Zhong Wentian's mood, one more Xu Shuming, one less Xu Shuming, it doesn't hurt at all.

Xu Shuming walked too hastily, and only remembered the moment when he turned around, Zhong Wentian's expression on the spot, he thought for a while, and could only vaguely say: "Mr. Not good. Mr. Bai is going to see Mr. Zhong in a hurry, please go this way first."

Bai Yue was really in a hurry, and he still had the heart to ask what was wrong, which made Xu Shuming's expression change, but he still had to leave quickly after looking at the time on his watch.

"That's fine, Assistant Xu will have a meeting later."

Xu Shuming smiled and nodded at him, watching him leave.It wasn't until he was far away that he turned around and continued walking to the conference room rented by the hotel.

The last two days in the United States passed quickly, and Zhong Wentian was used to flying around, and remote work has become a common occurrence.

The assistants who accompanied him all the year round also adapted to this rhythm.However, Xu Shuming, who was traveling with his boss for the first time, was not at all uncomfortable with such a high-intensity work, which surprised everyone.

However, after thinking about it, if Xu Shuming had nothing special about him, how could he be appreciated by the boss?

On the last day of leaving, Zhong Wentian thought of his daughter, so he planned to go shopping around and buy some souvenirs for his daughter before going to the airport in the afternoon.

When he came to America this time, he spent most of his time on the plane. Except for taking Xu Shuming to see a cherry blossom in his busy schedule, he really didn't have time to look around.

Before leaving, he changed into a casual shirt, and called Xu Shuming up to take a look with him.

Xu Shuming felt that Zhong Wentian was a good father a long time ago. He cared about his daughter's education, no matter how busy he was, he would spare some time to interact with his daughter.He will definitely not ignore the growth and concern of his daughter under the slogan of being busy making money like some successful fathers.

When shopping with Zhong Wentian and buying gifts, the clerk came out to chat with him, and he could tell many interesting stories about his daughter.

He stood aside and looked at Zhong Wentian as a bystander. Although the man at 35 was dressed in simple clothes, he was tall and straight.

Probably because he noticed that Xu Shuming was looking at him from the side, Zhong Wentian seemed to be aware of it, and suddenly turned to look at Xu Shuming.Xu Shuming was caught by him, but he didn't care, he just raised his head and smiled at him with narrowed eyes.

In the lazy urban afternoon, the sun slanted in from the glass window and fell on the face of the person, as if even the smile was like honey-colored sugar, so sweet that the whole heart melted into his eyes. inside.

Zhong Wentian stood where he was, looked at him for a long time, and then stretched out his hand to beckon him over.Seeing that he was still chatting with people, Xu Shuming asked him to go over. He didn't know what kind of toys little girls like, and when they went over, they just stood by as wooden stakes.

But Zhong Wentian's orders had to be obeyed, Xu Shuming slowly walked over and stood beside Zhong Wentian, Zhong Wentian saw that he was within reach of his hand, so he was relieved and said, "I told you to come out, Why are you standing so far away?"

Xu Shuming was also very innocent: "I'm waiting to swipe your card for you."

Zhong Wentian laughed when he heard this, and gave Xu Shuming one of his secondary cards. Usually, if Xu Shuming wanted to buy something at work, he would directly swipe his card, and then get reimbursed.

"I still need this little time? It's been so long since you came out, and you haven't seen anything you like?" Zhong Wentian asked.

Xu Shuming didn't want to take any more gifts from him, so he shook his head and said directly, "I don't lack anything."

The reply was a bit blunt, Zhong Wentian glanced at him, and didn't speak for a while, and he took Xu Shuming out of the store after the clerk packed the gifts.

Originally, the atmosphere in the afternoon was pretty good, but Xu Shuming's words that he didn't know would turn the atmosphere down to freezing point in an instant.

The two walked a distance in silence, but it was Zhong Wentian who adjusted his mentality first, and said first: "You spent time and energy shopping with me in the afternoon and buying souvenirs for my daughter. I simply want to repay your company and send Isn’t it reasonable for you to have one or two gifts?—You still resist me, don’t you, Shuming?”

Xu Shuming lowered his head, looked at his toes, and said after a while: "Mr. Zhong, I thought it was working time. As your assistant, this is my job. I really can't afford your thank you. Besides, you have already paid me a generous salary every month, how can I accept your gift again?"

I knew that Xu Shuming's teeth were sharp and sharp, but during the time around him, he rarely showed it anymore. I didn't expect that today he was not as cautious as usual, and he could say whatever he wanted.

Zhong Wentian stopped, Xu Shuming moved away from him, he stopped suddenly, Xu Shuming couldn't react in time, and was pulled to him by Zhong Wentian.

This was still a public place, so Xu Shuming couldn't help turning his head to look around, paying attention to the reactions of the people around him.In the corridor of the shopping mall, there are still a few pedestrians. Neither of them is short, even in a foreign country, they are eye-catching enough.

"Mr. Zhong, what are you doing? Let go!" Xu Shuming couldn't help being annoyed, he didn't want to be watched.

However, Zhong Wentian was very dissatisfied with his attitude, his fingers were still tightly gripping his wrist, and he did not loosen a bit of strength, he said: "These people don't know me, why should I care what they think of me?"

"I care!" Xu Shuming raised his head and glared at him.

When Zhong Wentian was looked at by him like this, his originally rather cold face suddenly laughed, and he also let go of Xu Shuming's wrist.

"You still look more like yourself like this," Zhong Wentian said as if nothing had happened, and said with a smile: "Didn't it scare you?"

Xu Shuming withdrew his hand, his face was still angry, he glanced at Zhong Wentian from time to time, and said reluctantly: "I am timid, if Mr. Zhong wants to teach young children to play bad games next time, please notify me in advance."

After hearing what he said, Zhong Wentian sighed exaggeratedly, looked at him and said, "It's off-duty time, so don't you stop being my assistant, okay, Shuming? If you think it's work to come out with me , I didn’t consider your mood, sorry. I just want to find someone to accompany me to go out for a walk, instead of looking for subordinates to deal with errands. If you really don’t like it that much, I’ll ask the driver to take you back to rest. The rest The shop, I just go to see it myself.”

The anger that Xu Shuming had just been teased by what he said was extinguished in an instant.

"Are you still angry? I'm sorry," Zhong Wentian approached him a little bit, and his voice was extremely gentle, "I just wanted to tease you, you've been so tense all day, and when I got close to you, you stood up Thorns all over the body, sometimes I feel that you are too tired, when it’s time to relax, just relax a little bit. You see, I suddenly approached you, and you said 'no', didn’t I just let go immediately? ——I won’t Force you to accept mine. You are free, Shuming, don’t tie yourself up too tightly, I hope, my liking will make you feel comfortable, not bound.”

Having said that, Zhong Wentian's voice paused, Xu Shuming looked at him suspiciously, only to see Zhong Wentian's eyes looking at him tenderly, and said:

"What were you thinking when you looked at me in the store just now? You smiled so beautifully, I almost thought you were smiling at me."

Hearing this, Xu Shuming didn't speak for a long time. Facing Zhong Wentian's soft, almost pampering eyes, his heart choked, and the words of denial came to his lips, but he couldn't say anything.

Just when he clenched his fingers and said that he was not unwilling to come out with him, but——

"Buzzing—"

The phone in his pocket rang suddenly, interrupting what Xu Shuming hadn't said yet.This specially set ringtone made Xu Shuming's whole body feel as if a layer of ice water had passed through it for an instant, and he woke up.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Zhong, I have a call." Xu Shuming heard his own voice calmly speaking, which was completely the same as usual.

Zhong Wentian looked at him for a while, as if he was extremely disappointed, and then nodded silently.

Xu Shuming bowed his head to him, turned around and answered the phone.

"Hey?"

"Hello, Mr. Xu, I'm Chu Chuan's manager, Ding Youyang."
