Chapter 6
My Dear Uncle
Jian Dan was the only one in such a big bedroom. How could Jian Dan sleep? She picked up her cell phone and realized that it was already past two in the morning. She put on a coat and wanted to take a walk in the courtyard. She tiptoed downstairs alone, afraid that she would wake the others…
The air was fresh and mixed with a faint floral fragrance. Jian Dan walked to a very large lawn, the kind that was especially suitable for picnics…
The strong smell of grass… Jian Dan sat down and when she looked up, she could see the stars in the sky. It was so beautiful that it was unreal. Jian Dan had forgotten how long it had been since she had seen such a beautiful starry sky in the city…
Jian Dan subconsciously sent Chu Liyuan a WeChat message: “Uncle, are you there?”
After sending it, she realized that…
It’s already so late. Uncle should be asleep, right? Will I disturb him?
At this moment, Chu Liyuan was in Chile… There were more than 20 people sitting in the huge conference room. All of them looked worried and dejected…
“The company spends a few million yuan on you every year. Is this the trash you give me?” Chu Liyuan slammed a stack of folders on the table and swept his cold gaze across everyone…
Everyone knew very well that Chu Liyuan had always been very decisive; he would never give anyone a second chance… It was as if they were waiting for their execution… There could only be a miracle if they wanted to “live”.
Suddenly, a WeChat notification sounded, causing everyone to break out in a cold sweat… Who was so blind as to “court death” at such a time?!”
Chu Liyuan glanced at his cell phone. “Uncle, are you there?” That lass had sent him a message…
When he saw this WeChat message, his originally angry mood could not help but improve a lot. He was inexplicably happy.
At this moment, everyone was waiting for Chu Liyuan’s order to fire them.
However…
“I’ll give you two more hours. If you still can’t come up with an acquisition proposal that is to my satisfaction, I don’t have to tell you what to do then.”
Everyone was shocked by what they had heard.
Miracle? It really happened? No one could believe it… The “death penalty” was granted a last-minute stay of execution.
Everyone quickly “fled” the meeting room as if they had been pardoned… After all, there were only two hours left. Of course, they had to race against time…
In an instant, only Chu Liyuan and Li Jing were left in the meeting room… Li Jing looked at Mr. Chu in surprise… There were countless question marks in his heart…
Not only did Mr. Chu not fire them directly, he actually gave them another two hours?
This did not make sense.
Also… When Mr. Chu was interrupted during the meeting, not only did he not get angry, he even seemed a little happy?
Who on earth had such great power??
Li Jing unconsciously leaned closer to Chu Liyuan, wanting to spy on him… After all, curiosity could kill a cat.
“You get out too!” Chu Liyuan saw through Li Jing’s intentions.
Although Li Jing left the meeting room, the question in his heart remained.
Who could it be?
Could it be the young girl from that night? No, no, no, that was impossible. Li Jing rejected this idea in his heart. How could it be because of a young girl?
Could it be the rumored “Goddess of War”?
Chu Liyuan looked at the message on his cell phone and smiled.
He glanced at the time on his phone… 14:48.
There was a 12-hour time difference between China and Chile!
This lass was still awake so late at night??
“Why aren’t you asleep yet?”
Jian Dan had initially thought that Uncle would be asleep at this time and would not reply to the message… She did not expect him to reply.
“Uncle isn’t asleep either, right?”
“It’s afternoon here; it’s in the middle of the night over on your side. How can it be the same?”
“Afternoon?”
“I’m in Chile!”
Chile?
Jian Dan quickly searched on Baidu. It turned out that there was a 12-hour time difference between Chile and China!
“Oh!”
“So?”
“Hmm… Perhaps it’s because I’m not used to the new environment? Also, I’m afraid to be alone in such a big room.”
“Are you complaining about being left alone on your first day of marriage?”
Such mushy and provocative words were actually sent by Chu Liyuan?
If Li Jing saw this, he would definitely think that Chu Liyuan had been possessed.
When Jian Dan saw Chu Liyuan’s message, her face turned red… “No.”
“Then?”
“Uncle, there are a lot of stars tonight, and the moon is especially big.”
Jian Dan pretended to change the topic.
“It’s afternoon here. I can’t see the stars or the moon!”
Jian Dan really felt that she was not the sharpest tool in the shed…
“Really? Hehe…”
Jian Dan had an awkward look on her face. Fortunately, no one saw that. Otherwise, Jian Dan would definitely be embarrassed to death.
“Um… When will you be back?” Jian Dan changed the topic again.
“Why? Do you miss me?” For some reason, Chu Liyuan just wanted to tease her.
Even Chu Liyuan himself suspected if he was the one who had said those words.
When did he ever say such mushy words?
This was self-taught…
His question of “Do you miss me?” made Jian Dan blush all the way to her heels…
What was wrong with this uncle?
He had to speak like this, as if the two of them were a couple in love.
But they had only known each other for less than two days.
But, so what?
Now, the two of them were legally bound together.
When Chu Liyuan saw that she had not replied for a long time, he knew… that lass must be shy… Her shy look appeared in his mind.
He must not set himself on fire. “A week or so.” Chu Liyuan stopped teasing her.
“So long?”
After sending this message, Jian Dan wished she could beat herself up!
Out of the frying pan into the fire!
Chu Liyuan looked at her reply and a devilish smile appeared on his face. Anyone who saw this smile would be unable to tear themselves from him… Unfortunately, no one could see it!
“Be good and wait for me at home!”
Looking at Chu Liyuan’s reply, a sweet smile appeared on Jian Dan’s face. Although she was a little shy, she felt very happy.
“Hurry up and go to sleep!” Chu Liyuan ordered.
“Yes, Sir!”
Jian Dan held her cell phone and looked at the sky with a smile on her face… She fell asleep just like that…
