Chapter 839 Zhou Ya Arrives
The next morning, Yang Dongxu was automatically woken up by his biological clock without a ring. The sofa was a bit too soft. Although he had a good night's sleep and recovered well, he felt a stiff neck.
After a good wash, he twisted his body to do some incredible qigong exercises. The tendons and muscles in the sore parts were completely stretched, and he felt a sense of relaxation.
He ordered a lot of breakfast in the hotel restaurant and motioned Sun Yi to sit down and eat together.
Sun Yi sat down as he said, but did not eat immediately. Instead, she took out a folder and opened it, and began to tell him all the schedule for the day.
First, he went to Hurricane Construction for a meeting, and told him what needed to be discussed in the meeting and several things that needed to be decided.
Every time he came to the headquarters of Hurricane Construction in Shanghai, Yang Dongxu and the company's management had to hold a long meeting, which seemed to have become a routine.
In addition to the major projects that required him, the chairman, to make the final decision, Yang Dongxu would make adjustments to the problems encountered in the company's operation at this stage.
Then, after the company's investigation, it continued to move forward according to the company's development plan that had been formulated long ago. Zhao Yu, the general manager, had a lot of decision-making power in all matters of the company. Yang Dongxu would be a hands-off boss for a while, and only learned about the current operation of Hurricane Construction from Sun Yi until the next meeting.
"The banquet and invitations have all been cancelled. Some of the ones that cannot be postponed will be attended by Manager Zhao." Yang Dongxu said after putting a soup dumpling in his mouth.
Sun Yi nodded, crossed out some unimportant banquets with a pen, and then turned to the second page to check other things. It is her job as a secretary to make Yang Dongxu spend a day efficiently.
Some of the arrangements have been crossed out, and this period of time must not be empty. Other things need to be supplemented. The day will still be fully scheduled.
After breakfast, the group left the hotel and came to the headquarters of Hurricane Construction. Yang Dongxu first sat in his chairman's office for a while, and then looked at the meeting arrangements. At 9:30, all the company's senior management entered the meeting room to start the meeting.
The meeting went smoothly. After several months of facing the current hot real estate market, the senior management of Hurricane Construction has made corresponding adjustments. Except for some places that need him to supplement and supervise, there are generally no problems.
When the meeting was about eleven o'clock, when there were only two topics left, the door of the conference room was suddenly opened. Everyone turned their heads and looked over. Many people were obviously stunned.
Yang Dongxu was also stunned, and then stood up with a look of surprise.
Zhao Yu and some other company veterans also stood up quickly: "Hello, Chairman!"
This sentence made the other senior executives who were still stunned even more confused, but seeing the looks of Zhao Yu and other veterans, these people suddenly thought of something and hurriedly stood up and shouted.
"Why are you here? You didn't notify me before you came so that I could pick you up."
"I didn't disturb you because I knew you were busy recently. I wanted to come and give you a surprise. I was bored at home, so I came out to see you. You go about your business. I'll let Cui Ma notify the kitchen of Yangjiayan to prepare what you want to eat at noon." Zhou Ya said.
Zhou Ya, who was wearing loose clothes and had her hair tied up, was not very pregnant yet. Compared with her previous thinness, her body now has a little baby fat. Although her aura is still as strong as that of an empress, she exudes maternal love because of her pregnancy, making her feel more approachable than before.
"Just watch it, or you can sit for a while, there are two more topics to be discussed." Yang Dongxu glanced at Cui Ma who was serving Zhou Ya. She subconsciously leaned towards Zhou Ya. She obviously knew the temper of her young master. But what can she do when her mistress tells her to?
Yang Dongxu didn't blame Cui Ma for letting Zhou Ya come to the Magic City without reporting it. The main reason was that Zhou Ya was pregnant and still traveled so much. He was afraid that something might happen. So he was a little annoyed, although he knew that all this might be Zhou Ya's attention.
Otherwise, with the degree of care his mother had for her daughter-in-law and future grandson, Zhou Ya had just left the village, and she called her son and told him to take good care of her or break his legs.
"You go ahead and do your work. I'll just sit in your office for a while." Zhou Ya glared at Yang Dongxu fiercely, obviously in response to his blaming Cui's mother.
Yang Dongxu could only send them out of the meeting room with a smile on his face, and was driven out by Zhou Ya only when he reached the door of the office.
"Continue the meeting." When he returned to the meeting room and saw the way the company's senior executives looked at him, Yang Dongxu groaned and sat in the main seat, but the atmosphere was obviously a little different from the seriousness of the previous meeting, "Women are always a little more emotional when they are pregnant."
Yang Dongxu explained that the average senior executives in the office were 40 years old. After hearing what their boss said, many people smiled kindly, and it was obvious that they had experienced such things.
At the same time, they felt closer to the chairman. After all, because of his age, Yang Dongxu often had a serious face in the past, which put a lot of pressure on them.
Now they suddenly saw the helpless side of their chairman facing the chairman's wife, and they felt that their chairman was also a human being, and there were times when he was frustrated.
In addition to the feeling of closeness, they also have a feeling that their chairman seems young, but has grown up. This growth is not the elders watching the younger generation grow up and become sensible. After all, their big boss is now very capable and skillful, and they have never treated him as a child.
But a man getting married or not, having children or not is obviously a different concept. Now the chairman is not only married, but also has children. Invisibly, they feel that their boss seems to be more stable, although their boss has always been very stable and has never made mistakes.
"Go and have someone clean up the apartment in Lujiazui." Yang Dongxu ordered Sun Yi next to him, and then the meeting continued.
Compared with the serious atmosphere before, the atmosphere is now much more harmonious. But when discussing the topic, no one dared to fool around, and everyone put away the smiles on their faces and started to be serious.
The two topics were discussed for half an hour. In recent years, unless it is a topic that has a far-reaching impact on the future layout, Yang Dongxu rarely has a one-man show. Although his opinions on most topics are very important, there are often many company executives who oppose and discuss things repeatedly.
He did not feel that his authority as chairman was challenged by this situation, but was very happy to see this situation. After all, what he wanted was the company's management, not yes-men. Expressing their opinions could help the company develop better, and he felt more at ease when he was a hands-off boss.
"The wife has asked someone to pack up the house, and the afternoon schedule is arranged," Sun Yi whispered in his ear outside the conference room.
"Let's talk about it after lunch." Yang Dongxu was a little confused about Zhou Ya's sudden arrival and the fact that she had someone clean up the apartment in advance and planned to live there permanently, but he was still very happy that his wife came over, so he didn't have to think too much about these trivial matters.
Before he walked into his office, the phone rang. Seeing that the caller ID was his mother, Yang Dongxu realized that Sun Yi and others should go and do their own things, and walked quickly to the conference room.
Zhou Ya was sitting in her seat flipping through documents, and Cui's mother was sitting aside studying recipes for pregnant women. Seeing Yang Dongxu come in, he stood up and said, "Master."
Yang Dongxu waved his hand to signal her to do her own thing. Cui Ma tidied up the things on the table and left the room. Yang Dongxu pressed the answer button.
"Why did you take so long to answer the phone? Has Xiaoya arrived yet?" As soon as the call was connected, he hadn't had time to call "Mom". His mother's voice was in the microphone like a machine gun, not giving him any sound to speak.
"Hello, talk, is the signal bad?" After talking for a long time without giving Yang Dongxu a chance to interrupt, Yang Ma, who didn't hear her son's voice, took the phone away from her ear and checked the call status to see if it was disconnected.
"I heard it, I heard it. Zhou Ya has arrived and is sitting right in front of me." Yang Dongxu said quickly.
"Why don't you say anything when you hear it? Why are you pretending to be dumb?" Mother Yang snorted coldly, and then did not give her son a chance to speak: "I told you to take good care of Xiaoya. Pregnant women should eat small meals frequently to facilitate absorption. This is what Old Sun said. You must take good care of my daughter-in-law. What to eat for each meal and when to eat, I have already told Mother Cui, if you..."
After talking for more than ten minutes, his mother did not stop. For the first time, Yang Dongxu saw that his mother was so talkative: "Mom, don't talk for now, Zhou Ya wants to talk to you."
"By the way, I almost forgot that I haven't talked to Xiaoya yet. Why are you occupying the phone for no reason? What do you know about pregnant women?" Mother Yang now dislikes her son, especially when her daughter-in-law is no longer in front of her.
Yang Dongxu handed the phone to his wife with a pleading look.
Seeing her husband begging for mercy, Zhou Ya couldn't help but laugh and took the phone: "Mom"
After handing over the phone like a hot potato, Yang Dongxu wiped the sweat from his forehead. It was not an exaggeration but real sweat. Yang Dongxu never thought that his mother would have such a fierce and overbearing side. Did he even doubt that he was her biological son? She scolded him in various ways, but when it came to Zhou Ya, she showed all kinds of concern.
The call lasted for half an hour, until Zhou Ya said that she was hungry, Yang's mother hung up the phone reluctantly, and scolded her son again before hanging up the phone. If Yang Dongxu hadn't said that Zhou Ya asked him to accompany her for dinner, Yang's mother would probably continue to scold her.
After hanging up the phone and looking at his wife, Yang Dongxu suddenly understood why Zhou Ya came to the Magic City to find him. After being pregnant for two months and the fetus was stable, she insisted on staying at home for more than a month before coming out. This is simply... Without saying anything, Yang Dongxu directly gave his wife a thumbs up.
"Mom, you are actually very good to me. You can see that I have been fattened by you recently. That's it." Zhou Ya said with a fierce look at her husband.
"I understand." Before Zhou Ya finished speaking, Yang Dongxu nodded to show his understanding. She was so meticulous on the phone, and if she was in front of him, the care and concern would definitely be disgusting.
