Chapter 664: Going to See His Future Wife

“Then do you know where that guy went?”
“It appears that he has headed to the northwest! I’ve heard he’s there to explore and develop the new market.”
“Why would the new market need the Second Boss to be there? Liu Chun was sent there because he had offended my Big brother! Just wait and see! When Liu Chun comes back after half a year of cold wind in the northwest, I guarantee that many people won’t be able to recognize him.”
Liu Chun was a pretty boy, however, with this trip, he would be blown into a rough man with dry skin.
Ji Fang was dumbfounded.
The climate in the northwest was terrible. It couldn’t be compared to the mainland. Moreover, the temperature there was said to be especially cold. Autumn had just arrived for them, but in the northwest, it would be equivalent to winter.
Ji Fang shuddered after thinking about it.
Zhou Hengguang glanced at Ji Fang out of the corner of his eye, and the corners of his mouth curled up in delight. He thought, “Little secretary, don’t idolize Big brother anymore. Losing you won’t make much difference since there are so many people who idolize Big brother.”
“Lend me your watch.” Zhou Hengguang took off his Omega watch and glanced at Ji Fang’s wrist. His eyes lit up.
“Oh!” Ji Fang obediently took off his watch and handed it over. “Deputy Director, why are you wearing my watch?”
“Because yours is cheap.”
Ji Fang was speechless.
He shouldn’t have asked.
“I saved up for half a year after I came out to work before I could afford this watch!”
Zhou Hengguang raised his eyebrows. “Is your salary very high?”
“Alright then! It’s not that high as compared to yours, Deputy Director.”
“Are you afraid that I won’t return it to you?”
“Of course not. It’s my honor to have you wear my watch on your wrist.”
“Not bad, you’ve learned to be smart.” After everything was ready, Zhou Hengguang took the car keys and prepared to go out. Before he left, he specifically told him that if the dean of the design inst.i.tute looked for him, he would tell him that he was going to see his future wife.
Ji Fang’s jaw almost dropped again.
“Wait! Deputy Director, are you really going to meet your future wife?” This was big news. If the female employees in the unit knew about it, they would be heartbroken.
The Deputy Director was very popular in the design inst.i.tute, much more so than in the Changhe Machinery Factory.
Big Brother was usually busy with work at Changhe Machinery Factory, so no one dared to like him because of his status as the Deputy Director. The design inst.i.tute was different. Those who could enter were either particularly talented or had a good education background.
The distance between them was much smaller.
Zhou Hengguang paused for a moment and revealed a specious smile. After getting into the car and starting it, he replied, “Almost! The main point is that if you say that, the director won’t scold you. Instead, he’ll give me a few more days of leave.”
“So…” Ji Fang still wanted to ask, but Zhou Hengguang had already stepped on the accelerator and left. He could only mutter to himself, “Are you really going to see your future wife? It shouldn’t be, right? Who doesn’t dress up nicely for such an occasion?”
The Deputy Director deliberately dressed himself in an unattractive manner, making it more plausible that he was preparing to meet with his debt collectors.

Spring Breeze Publishing House.
The publishing house that was on the verge of bankruptcy two months ago had now regained its vitality. “Sc.u.mbag’s handbook” was even selling well across the country. It had been reprinted several times, and the number of reprints was increasing.
Based on the current trend, people in the industry predicted that no one would be able to break the best-selling record for at least two years.
If anyone could break it, it would be Su Wen herself.
Now, calls from all the major bookstores in the country were flooding in. Zhou Yan even arranged for someone to specially answer the hotlines.
