We Married in a Flash After One-Night Stand

Zhao Zhuoyuan said seriously, "We've preliminarily settled the deal, now we're just waiting for their CEO to give the word."

Upon hearing this, He Jinnan did not relax, "All right, I'll fly over tomorrow to talk directly with their CEO."

Yan Zihang couldn't contain his excitement, "In other words, it's practically a sure thing. Meeting with their CEO is just a formality. Jinnan, if you really collaborate with Hong Yuan, you'll make our old man proud."

The others were also very happy for He Jinnan.

He Jinnan said sternly, "Still, I dare not let my guard down. Until the last signature is on the paper, it's not a done deal!"

Fu Yunshan brownnosed, "Brother Jinnan, your capabilities are clear for all to see, we believe in you."

He Jinnan looked at the person opposite him and reprimanded, "Yun Shan, once Xiao Zhi becomes my wife, you should curb your princess temperament in front of her."

Fu Yunshan, reprimanded, asked incredulously, "Are you speaking against me for her sake too? The money-grubber just lectured me earlier."

He Jinnan glanced at Yan Zihang and then told her, "He is him, I am me. Did you remember all that I said?"

Fu Yunshan pursed her lips and reluctantly muttered, "Hmm."

She had grown up with this 'brother' and had reverence and admiration for him in her heart. To help him seize the great enterprise, she was willing to stand behind him, support him, and heed his words obediently.

Yan Zihang, trying to smooth things over, said, "Come on, stop just talking, let's eat."

He Jinnan hadn't eaten much when he was with He Jinhong and the others, so now with his friends, he ate a bit more.

"Right," Yan Zihang said as if he recalled something, "When you guys were having dinner outside the private room, He Jinhong and Xia Zhi seemed to exchange a few words, and their expressions seemed off. He Jinhong looks quite interested in Xia Zhi."

Gu Chen frowned slightly upon hearing this, "He's not trying to drive a wedge between Jinnan and Xia Zhi, is he? To win over from Xia Zhi's side?"

Zhao Zhuoyuan also nodded slightly in agreement, "Very likely. Jinnan, you have to be careful with Xia Zhi."

He Jinnan pondered for a moment, and after mulling it over, he said seriously, "I'm aware of the situation."

By the time he left Zi Guang Garden again, it was nearly three o'clock in the morning.

He Jinnan returned home, carefully opened the door, and after entering, glanced towards Xia Zhi's room first. Seeing no disturbance, he quickly returned to his own room.

He felt like he had only fallen asleep for a moment when he heard a knock at the door, accompanied by Xia Zhi's soft and tentative inquiry, "He Jinnan, are you awake?"

He Jinnan forced his eyes open and slowly sat up, rubbing his brow, "I'm up, come in."

Xia Zhi was wearing bear pajamas and a pink wide headband, looking much cuter.

She entered, standing by the door, not daring to look directly at him, she spoke with an unsettled tone, "The thing is, it seems we're out of internet at home."

"Oh? Really?" He Jinnan feigned surprise, got out of bed while Xia Zhi turned her head to the side, her ear tips turning slightly red.

He usually slept bare-chested, but was wearing pajama bottoms. Seeing her embarrassed look, he guessed she misunderstood.

He stood before her and first fiddled with the fuzzy little flower on her headband, then teasingly said, "I am wearing pants."

At this, Xia Zhi's face turned even redder, and she stammered, "Oh, I, um, I saw."

He Jinnan smiled and came out of the room, pretending to check the router, turning it off and then on, but after a moment, the internet was still not restored.

He picked up his phone to call the property management, although the internet was down, the phone line was still functional. After inquiring, he learned that the entire complex was without internet, and they were contacting the mobile company.

After hanging up, he said, "It's not just our home, no one has internet."

Upon hearing this, Xia Zhi had no choice but to say, "Then it can't be helped."

He Jinnan stretched his shoulders and said, "Let's wash up first, then eat together."

Breakfast was prepared lavishly by the maid; two types of porridge, buns and dumplings were reheated, tea eggs were boiled, soy milk prepared, and two large sesame balls were fried.

After Xia Zhi got ready, she went to the dining room first, scooping up a bowl of each type of porridge and peeling three tea eggs. She also took a sesame ball for her plate.

"Wow, quite a spread."

He Jinnan entered neatly dressed, wearing a well-tailored dark suit, his hair impeccable, clean-shaven, and carrying a refined scent of men's cologne. The whole person looked spirited and full of vigor.

Xia Zhi glanced covertly at his shirt cuffs bearing the cufflinks she had given him, her heart instantly filled with joy.

"Do you want meat porridge or vegetable porridge?" she asked. "The dumplings are vegetarian, and the buns are filled with meat."

"Meat porridge," he replied.

Xia Zhi placed the meat porridge in front of him, then pushed the peeled tea eggs toward him.

"I need to go on a business trip today, it'll take two or three days, and since there's no internet at home, I'll have Xiao Wu take you to another house to stay for a couple of days," He Jinnan said as he sipped his porridge.

Xia Zhi, hearing about the business trip, paused slightly and asked, "Where are you going on business?"

"Not far, to Ning City."

Xia Zhi thought for a moment and said, "Then I'll go to Shishi's place for these days. Staying alone in another house scares me a little. I'll come back when you return."

He Jinnan didn't think too much of it and agreed, "That's fine, I didn't think it through."

Xia Zhi thought, him being so considerate after less than a month together was already good enough.

"Oh, and one more thing," he said, "When I get back from my trip, let's start planning the wedding. These days would be good for you to discuss and explore ideas with your best friend."

Xia Zhi asked, "It's September now, when do you plan to set the wedding?"

"It definitely won't be by National Day, with less than half a month left. The latest would be before Christmas."

After speaking, He Jinnan sought her opinion, "What do you think, wife?"

"I have no objections," Xia Zhi replied.

Leaving home, the two took the elevator to the parking garage. He Jinnan, a true workaholic, had to stop by the office even with a flight that afternoon.

After she got her old car back from the traffic police, He Jinnan bought a parking spot for her right next to his.

Today she would drive her own car to work, before getting in, she approached He Jinnan, reminding him, "Even if work's busy, don't forget to eat. Have a safe trip."

He Jinnan smiled and pinched her cheek gently, "I know. Be good and wait for me to return. If you want something, big brother will buy you a gift."

Xia Zhi couldn't help but laugh, "Then I won't be shy and will ask for one thing, a mobile phone chain covered in sparkly diamonds."
