Chapter 418
He reverted to his usual disdain for his younger brother.It was as if the gentleness from just a moment ago was merely Zhou Zehan's hallucination.
Zhou Zehan didn't feel awkward at all. He just rubbed his head and said, "But brother, what was that thing you made? It was sweet, bubbly, and super delicious, way better than old popsicles."
Zhou Zedong frowned. He didn't know exactly what it was either; he only knew that putting those things together caused a reaction.
At the time, he was about to go back to his room to get a notebook to record it, but when he turned around, he found that his brother had drunk it.
Si Nian was also amazed. If Xiao Han didn't get sick from drinking this stuff, could Xiao Dong have actually created something?
Her eyes flickered with interest. "Xiao Dong, when we get back, make it for me to see."
Zhou Zedong nodded.

"This is cola. Yes, it definitely is. Although the taste is very light, I absolutely couldn't have tasted it wrong."
Si Nian smacked her lips, savoring the taste, and confirmed.
However, the children still didn't know what cola actually was.
They had only ever had soda water.
They exchanged a glance.
"Mom, can we drink it?"
"Of course you can, but it's best to drink less of this kind of carbonated beverage."
Si Nian reminisced about the taste.
Even though she hadn't had cola in a long time either.
This stuff was even more refreshing when chilled.
She marveled inwardly. How could this child even make cola?
Did he have to be this heaven-defyingly genius?
Si Nian admired Zhou Zedong even more.
Knowing the child truly liked researching these things, she suggested to Zhou Yueshen, "I see the small storage room in the east wing is unused. How about we clear it out for Xiao Dong to do his experiments? Otherwise, if he stays in the kitchen, things like this are bound to happen again."
She knew that in his previous life, Zhou Zedong was a researcher, so of course, she supported him developing in this direction now.
Zhou Yueshen had no objections. He was naturally happy that the child had such imagination and manufacturing ability, so he nodded in agreement.
Si Nian then asked him how his business trip went.
"It's already signed," Zhou Yueshen said. "This collaboration was delayed for some time due to an accident."
But precisely because of this accident, they fortuitously built a good relationship with their partners.
They successfully signed the partnership.
The other party was a large foreign factory.
Signing this long-term cooperation could keep their factory standing for at least ten years!
With a massive influx of capital, Chen Nan planned to make the factory bigger and stronger.
Seeing his expression, Si Nian felt relieved and told him about what had happened over the past few days.
Like the matters concerning Wang Ergou and Song Zhaodi, and things at school.
After finishing, she felt a bit of a headache. "Interpersonal relationships are really too complicated. We started competing out of nowhere, and I can't just brush off the teacher either."
If she deliberately did a bad job to brush off the teacher, who knows how the teacher would view her in the future.
But if Lu Yao lost to her, returning to the dorm would be awkward.
If she had known, she wouldn't have applied for the dorm.
As the two were talking, someone knocked on the door.
Second Child went out to open the door and saw a young, unfamiliar auntie.
He asked in confusion, "Auntie, who are you looking for?"
"Little boy, I'm looking for your dad. Is your dad home?"
Second Child's innocent little face was full of confusion.
Looking for dad?
It was his first time seeing a strange woman looking for his dad.
"Mom, an auntie is looking for dad."
He trotted back and said to Si Nian.
Si Nian looked up at Zhou Yueshen, only to see a woman wearing a professional suit and high heels walk in.
"Hello, is CEO Zhou here?"
Si Nian tilted her head to look.
It was a young woman in her twenties, dressed in a sharp professional suit with her hair styled and down, looking exactly like a professional white-collar worker.
She looked at Zhou Yueshen.
Zhou Yueshen frowned slightly and asked in a low voice, "What is it?"
"CEO Zhou, these are the documents CEO Chen asked me to deliver for your signature." The woman handed over the documents in her hand. "You were drunk last night, and I didn't want to disturb you, so I brought them over today."
Zhou Yueshen reached out to take them. "Thanks for the trouble."
"You're too polite, CEO Zhou. I'm your assistant. If there's anything you need in the future, just instruct..."
"You can go back first."
Zhou Yueshen interrupted her.
His eyes carried a sense of alienation and indifference.
The woman paused, smiled, glanced at Si Nian, and left.
Si Nian looked thoughtfully at her retreating figure.
Graceful, slender, and pretty.
Sure enough, when you're a big boss, the assistants and secretaries around you are never too shabby.
"Chen Nan arranged it. I told him I didn't need one, but he said an assistant who speaks both German and English is hard to find."
Seeing her retract her gaze, Zhou Yueshen began to explain.
Si Nian looked at him. "Oh, you were drunk last night?"
Zhou Yueshen paused. "I was pretending. I wasn't drunk; they were just being endless."
Si Nian let out a snort through her nose.
To be honest, no matter the era, there were simply too many bosses who had affairs with their secretaries.
Zhou Yueshen rubbed his nose.
"After wrapping up the cooperation last night, I left early this morning because I just wanted to come back and see you all."
Zhou Yueshen said, "That's why I didn't get the documents."
"Oh~" Si Nian dragged out the syllable. A woman's sixth sense is always very accurate. The way the other party looked at Zhou Yueshen carried a hint of fawning.
"I believe you, but I don't trust others."
Of course, Si Nian didn't mean to blame the woman. After all, if they could get together, it would mean neither party was any good.
She said, "If I find out anything is going on, no matter the reason, we are getting a divorce."
She couldn't tolerate a single grain of sand in her eye.
Zhou Yueshen's jaw tightened slightly.
"Niannian, I won't."
Si Nian: "Won't what?"
Zhou Yueshen: "That day won't come."
He held her hand, took a box out of his bag, and opened it. Inside was a diamond ring.
"When I was on my business trip, aside from work, it was just you."
He hurried back just to show her the gift he bought, but he was delayed by Second Child's matter and almost forgot.
He slipped the diamond ring onto her finger. It fit perfectly, neither too big nor too small.
It looked exceptionally beautiful on her tender hands, which were so delicate that the fine fuzz could be seen under the light.
Zhou Yueshen held her hand and placed a gentle kiss on it.
Si Nian's face flushed red.
This older man was getting bolder and bolder; the kids were still right here.
She instinctively glanced at the children, only to see Eldest Child reading a book, Second Child rummaging through his dad's bag, and Yaoyao drawing and writing with a pen.
Alright, no one was paying attention.
She breathed a sigh of relief and glared at Zhou Yueshen again.
She wasn't joking with him.
Second Child rummaged and rummaged through his dad's bag. "Mom, look, it's an airplane model! Is it for me?"
His eyes sparkled as he looked at Zhou Yueshen.
Zhou Yueshen, with his arm around Si Nian, took a moment to glance at him and said, "That's for your brother."
"Then is this for me?"
Second Child pulled out a cute little backpack.
It was so cute, completely unfitting for his temperament.
But considering it was bought by his dad, it didn't matter even if it was cute.
"That's for your sister."
Zhou Zehan: "......"
Refusing to give up, he rummaged some more and pulled out two fist-like objects.
"What are these?"
"Boxing gloves. I bought those for you to wear when you practice boxing in the future."
