Liang Xun, who was sitting on the plane, also felt that time was very long and he couldn’t sleep. He simply took out the documents sent over by Country Y’s branch company to take a look.
After reading the documents for a while, he would look at his watch and think about what Jing Yao was doing at home at this time.
It was 13 hours. When they arrived in Country Y, they could have lunch.
It was already night time in China, so Jing Yao must have already gone to bed.
Liang Xun hesitated for a moment. He felt that if he was the one staying in the country, he would definitely hope that Jing Yao would contact him immediately no matter when she arrived.
Liang Xun took out his cell phone, opened WeChat, and sent a message to Jing Yao.
Liang Xun: [I’m here. I’ll call you tomorrow morning when you wake up.]
After sending it, he didn’t wait for Jing Yao’s reply. He turned off his cell phone and said to the driver, “Go straight to the company.”
Gu Yu was slightly stunned.
The chauffeur did not know how anxious Liang Xun was now. He advised, “President Liang, you should have a meal first and sleep before going to the company.”
Liang Xun glanced at him indifferently and said expressionlessly, “I’m going to the company. I’ll eat lunch at the company.”
The chauffeur was frightened by his cold aura and did not dare to say anything else. He hurriedly brought him to the company.
Liang Xun quickly turned off his cell phone, so he did not see that the WeChat chat interface kept showing “the other party is typing”.
Jing Yao went to bed at eight o’clock, but she couldn’t fall asleep. She didn’t want to play with her cell phone either. She felt that the content on her cell phone that she couldn’t stop eating had become boring today.
She held her cell phone and listened to the recording she secretly made over and over again.
It was recorded one afternoon when she pretended to have insomnia and pestered Liang Xun to read to her.
Later on, she fell asleep herself. Liang Xun read for more than 10 minutes before getting up and leaving.
But before he left, he kissed Jing Yao’s forehead as usual and said in a low voice, “Good afternoon, baby.”
It was only then that she realized that Liang Xun liked to call her that.
Jing Yao stopped him every time she heard him call her that, so Liang Xun could only call her that when she was asleep or on WeChat.
Jing Yao was still awake when Liang Xun sent the message. Hearing the notification on WeChat, Jing Yao immediately turned on her cell phone. After seeing the content of the message, she instinctively wanted to reply to Liang Xun and tell him not to be too tired. He had to eat well and rest well.
However, she quickly deleted the message. If she replied to Liang Xun, he would definitely know that she was still awake.
Jing Yao suppressed the urge to reply and read Liang Xun’s short sentence several times. She only fell asleep with the phone in her arms when she saw her own tears.
In the middle of the night, Jing Yao woke up with a leg cramp.
She vaguely knew that her legs would cramp when she fell asleep in the middle of the night, but every time she made an uncomfortable sound, Liang Xun would wake up before she could completely wake up. He would rub her legs gently and comfort her in a low voice.
Jing Yao didn’t even wake up completely before she fell asleep again.
However, without Liang Xun around, Jing Yao could only sit up and massage herself. Tears suddenly fell.
She did not know why she suddenly became so fragile.
After the cramps were better, Jing Yao took out Liang Xun’s WeChat message and read it for a few minutes. Her eyes started to burn again.
She was already not used to Liang Xun being away for less than a day. What was she going to do in the next few days?
Jing Yao comforted herself in her heart. This was a habit she had developed in the past. It was not so uncomfortable anymore, so she forced herself to close her eyes and sleep.
The branch manager looked surprised when he saw Liang Xun. He thought that Liang Xun would at least have lunch before coming over.
Although he was puzzled, the administrator had already made a mistake this time. He did not dare to say anything at this moment. He would carry out whatever Liang Xun said unconditionally.
Liang Xun casually ate a few mouthfuls of food in the company before getting the administrator to gather the higher-ups of the branch company for a meeting.
After understanding the details, he got Gu Yu to make an appointment with his partner.
They would talk about it during dinner.
Such matters often had to be negotiated several times. If they were lucky, they could settle it in a week. Otherwise, it was possible to delay it for a month.
In the past, Liang Xun would not give in at the negotiation table with his personality. However, he instructed Gu Yu this time.
“Keep it tight the first few times. Last time, make way for the unimportant parts if you can.”
Gu Yu knew why he was in such a hurry to go back. He did not say anything and only nodded in agreement..
