Wei Zhengsheng looked at her. His eyes seemed calm, and he was clearly not joking. Yu Daiyu originally wanted to ask, "President Wei, are you joking?" But when her eyes met his, she could not ask anymore.
And she had to admit that the way Wei Zhengsheng proposed to her was really... something.
Actually, this couldn't be considered a proposal, right? Who would sit in a car and propose to someone as if they were giving out a task?
Yu Daiyu's mind wandered for a few seconds before she got out of the car with a smile. She did not reply to Wei Zhengsheng's proposal, nor did she reject it. She just smiled at him. "It's already very late. I will go back and rest."
And without waiting for a reply from him, she walked straight into the apartment building.
Wei Zhengsheng had thought that after saying that sentence, Yu Daiyu would be surprised, agree, or reject him. He really didn't expect her to be so calm, as if she didn't hear him, and just walked away.
When he thought about the decision that had crossed his mind just now, he couldn't help but laugh.
Although the difference between the two of them was too great, and there were many aspects that did not match, but since his mother liked Yu Daiyu a lot and he did not have much of a dislike for her, he did not think it was a problem.
This girl, however, showed no reaction at all. What did she mean by that?
Wei Zhengsheng looked at the apartment building for a while before driving away.
Yu Daiyu suddenly stuck her head out of the door of the apartment building and looked outside. Seeing that Wei Zhengsheng's car was no longer there, she looked doubtfully at his car, which quickly disappeared into the distance before turning around and entering the elevator.
"Yu Daiyu, you want a family, and I need a family. If you think it's okay, we can get married."
Until Yu Daiyu finished showering and lay down on the bed, Wei Zhengsheng's words kept echoing in her head. She kept tossing and turning in bed until she couldn't sleep.
Could it be that Wei Zhengsheng had a stroke? Why did he suddenly want to marry her? Even if their parents had arranged the blind date, he would not be in such a hurry to marry her, would he?
Were there other hidden motives? Or what?
All Yu Daiyu could say for sure was that Wei Zhengsheng had absolutely no feelings for her. He didn't really like her.
Then why did he want to marry her?
Yu Daiyu grabbed her hair hard and couldn't stand this kind of insomnia. She simply sat up and got up from the bed. She opened the curtains and looked outside in confusion.
"Aiyayaya!" Yu Daiyu again raised her hand to pull her hair. "So annoying! Inexplicably telling me to get married, this man must be sick! If he's not sick, then I'm sick! Otherwise, why can't I sleep?!"
•••••
The next day.
Yu Daiyu went to work with a pair of panda eyes. After a busy day at the company, she started to feel dizzy.
"Daiyu, why do you look so pale?" In the afternoon, Jing Situ, Yu Daiyu's office colleague, went to print documents with her. Suddenly, she noticed Yu Daiyu's pale face and asked with concern.
Yu Daiyu smiled. "Maybe it's because I didn't sleep well last night."
"It's good if you're not sick because you look very pale. If you don't feel well, go tell the manager. It's alright if you go home early today, there hasn't been much work in our office in the last two days, and for the next month, the company has organized a vacation for the employees. This is the most relaxing month in Xian Corporation. You must take good care of your body, if you get sick later, you won't be able to have a nice vacation with us!"
Yu Daiyu nodded. "Thank you for your concern, Sister Jing. I will take care of my body. Oh yes, you're talking about vacation?"
"Ah, I heard that the higher-ups will organize a vacation in Argentina for everyone this year, and we can go watch football too! Oh, by the way, do you like Messi? I want to get Messi's autograph!"
Yu Daiyu shook her head. "I don't watch much football, but I have heard of Messi before. I heard that he's very strong and very handsome..."
"Of course, I'm telling you, Messi..."
Yu Daiyu already had a headache, but now her head hurt even more. After all the documents were finally printed and she returned to the office, Yu Daiyu felt that her nose was stuffy and she felt uncomfortable. Thinking about the cold wind outside the amusement park last night, she had sneezed twice last night, but she didn't feel anything wrong with her body, so she didn't think too much about it.
And while Yu Daiyu was thinking about this, she sneezed a few times. She quickly took a tissue to wipe her nose, and then lay down on the table with her eyes closed in discomfort.
Damn it! If only she hadn't thought about Wei Zhengsheng last night, she would have remembered to drink ginger water to prevent herself from catching a cold.
Damn you, Wei Zhengsheng! You really were a disaster!
Yu Daiyu poked the paper on her desk with a pen. She stared at it for a long time and sneezed again.
•••••
Yu Daiyu had a cold for the past two days. She thought it was just a mild cold and didn't take any medicine. After all, medicines weren't good for the body, but she didn't think her cold would get worse.
On the third day of catching a cold, Yu Daiyu got up late due to a headache. When she finally arrived at the company and saw that it was almost time to start work, she rushed into the elevator without looking at the people who had just entered the elevator.
"Ah, wait a minute!"
Yu Daiyu rushed into the elevator before the door closed. She looked down at her watch, praying that the elevator would stop at the middle floor and let her into the office in half a minute.
"What happened to you?"
In the blink of an eye, Yu Daiyu saw Wei Zhengsheng and his assistant standing next to her. This wasn't an exclusive elevator for the CEO, and even though Wei Zhengsheng sometimes rode the employees' elevator, but only very few people had the chance to meet the Big Boss in the elevator.
Yu Daiyu was stunned for a long time, and before she could say anything, she sneezed. She quickly took out a tissue from her bag and began to wipe her nose. "I'm sorry, President Wei. I didn't see you in the elevator. I'm going out now so my cold won't spread to you."
As she spoke, she was about to press the nearest floor button, but just as she raised her hand, Wei Zhengsheng stopped her, indicating that she didn't need to leave.
Yu Daiyu quickly lowered her hand and wiped her nose. While wiping, she coughed twice.
"You're very sick but you still want to come to work? Have you gone to the clinic yet?" Wei Zhengsheng asked.
His tone wasn't particularly concerned, and it wasn't like the tone of a superior casually caring for his subordinates. Instead, it was particularly natural, which made Yu Daiyu feel a little less embarrassed.
Yu Daiyu shook her head. "It's okay. I only have a minor cold. There's no need to ask for a leave of absence. I can still work."
When Wei Zhengsheng saw that the tip of her nose had turned red from rubbing it with the tissue, he said. "There is a medical room in the company. It's specially opened for Xian Corporation's employees. It's located on the ninth floor. Go get treatment there before you start work."
"No need, President Wei. I really only have a cold. My cold will be gone in a few days." The more Yu Daiyu said, the drier her throat became and the more she coughed.
The elevator had already stopped. Wei Zhengsheng didn't seem to be going upstairs, but to the office of the planning department. Before exiting the elevator, he ordered, "Don't try to be brave, remember, go get treatment."
With these words, he walked out of the elevator.
