Chapter 43: Your Tie

The next morning, with clear skies and not a cloud in sight, a person abruptly sat up on a hotel bed.

“You, you, you… Why are we sleeping together?”

Zhou Mushi got up from the bed without saying a word and scratched his head. “What’s the matter? You’re disturbing my sleep early in the morning!”

Zhou Hang hugged the pillow in his arms tightly and pulled his sleeping buddy up as he was about to lie down again. “Don’t sleep. You have to tell me what happened last night. How did we end up sleeping together?”

Zhou Mushi looked at his frightened eyes and smiled inwardly. He recounted every detail of what happened yesterday, word for word.

As a result, his friend went crazy and shouted with wide eyes, “It’s impossible! I’m a straight guy! This can’t be happening!”

Zhou Mushi ignored him and went straight to the bathroom to wash his face and brush his teeth. When he came out, Zhou Hang still looked like the whole world was falling apart.

He walked up and kicked him, saying, “Do you have to be like this? Nothing even happened.”

The man lay there languidly and muttered, “I’m never drinking again.”

“Hehe, I really believe you when you say that. Why did you get so drunk yesterday?”

Zhou Hang crawled uncomfortably under the covers and muttered, “Li Lingling has a boyfriend.”

“Oh, what does her having a boyfriend have to do with you?” Zhou Mushi asked, holding a cup of coffee in his hand.

Zhou Hang remained silent.

Zhou Mushi took a sip of his coffee and said, “I don’t know if I should praise you for being sentimental or criticize you for being pathetic. But that’s not important. You know we have to talk to the third-party company today about collaboration, right?”

Zhou Hang, who was still heartbroken, was not in the mood to talk about work and was not very satisfied with his good friend’s lack of consideration for his feelings. He replied impatiently, “Yeah, I know. So what?”

Zhou Mushi chuckled coldly, “Congratulations, CEO Zhou. When you were venting on me yesterday, the representative from Yucheng Group, who had just finished accompanying you for your company project, saw everything.”

Zhou Hang said, “…I think, uh, maybe I shouldn’t attend the meeting.”

“Also, let me tell you one more thing. That person is my ex-boyfriend, Jin Yang,” Zhou Mushi added.

Zhou Hang sat at the foot of the bed, feeling overwhelmed and with a splitting headache.

“Oh, I suddenly feel unwell. I might need to go to the hospital,” he said.

“Zhou Hang, be honest with yourself. Do you feel any pain in your conscience now?” Zhou Mushi replied.

He widened his eyes in silence. “Why do I, a capitalist, need a conscience? I’m out of here. If you need anything, talk to Mr. Xu, our company’s manager.”

As Zhou Hang left, he bumped into Mr. Xu, who was responsible for welcoming the guests. Mr. Xu was talking to Jing Yang. Mr. Xu had a keen eye and noticed Zhou Hang. He went over to him and introduced him to Jing Yang, saying, “Director Jing, this is our company CEO, Mr. Zhou. Mr. Zhou, why are you coming out of the VIP room…”

Old Xu silently mourned in his heart, everything was just a dream, he didn’t say anything, he didn’t see anything, oh heavens! I have a family to support and cannot afford to lose my job! The CEO’s smile is too ominous, wife, I’m scared~

“Ahem, I just know CEO Zhou and came to catch up with him.”

Zhou Mushi noticed that the tie that Zhou Hang had worn earlier was left behind, so he went out to catch up with him while holding the tie. “Hey, you forgot your tie…”
