My CEO Husband Has Some Issues-Chapter 1022: His Call Arrived as Expected
Chapter 1022: Chapter 1022: His Call Arrived as Expected
"Didn’t you say you had a meeting this morning that you couldn’t skip? How did you finish so quickly?"
From the time he left the house to now, it had been at most three hours.
That was too fast.
"It hasn’t finished yet, it will end in at most two hours. I asked Gu Ming, I can make it to your competition." Li Shengxiao was still sitting in the chairman’s seat at Li Group’s conference room, his gaze sweeping over the people who were freely discussing. The executives attending the meeting felt his gaze and pretended to engage in heated discussions, but their eyes kept darting over to him, afraid of missing any change in his expressions.
Mr. Li actually making a call in the middle of a meeting, and not knowing who he was calling, was too rare!
Those with sharp ears close by heard him mention a competition and began to secretly speculate, searching their minds for any competitions taking place in Capital City.
Afterward, they would have to have their secretaries quickly buy tickets; there might even be a chance to encounter the CEO ’by coincidence’, and gain some brownie points in front of Mr. Li.
Rong Yan didn’t know he was still in a meeting and laughed, saying, "It’s okay if you can’t make it, you can watch the live broadcast anyway. Your work is important, and mine is just a small competition. Don’t worry, your girlfriend is confident about winning the championship!"
Li Shengxiao’s eyebrows raised, as if he could see the confident look on the little woman on the other end of the phone. His heart had already taken flight uncontrollably. Suddenly, he stood up and walked to the floor-to-ceiling windows in front of dozens of eyes, his handsome profile unexpectedly soft, "Then I must be there. I can’t miss the moment that belongs to you."
"Yanyan, I wasn’t able to participate in your life before, and you’ve been on your own for too long. From now on, I hope to witness every step you take together."
Didn’t she want to reach the glittering stars?
Then he would stand behind her, watching her climb step by step!
His voice was too husky, deeply stirring emotions.
Rong Yan’s heart skipped countless beats, uncontrollably thumping wildly. She pressed a hand to her chest, afraid her heart was beating so fiercely it might accidentally leap out.
But someone was too alluring; she simply couldn’t suppress the frantic beating of her heart.
Even her eardrums started throbbing.
After Rong Yan hung up the phone, her cheeks were still a bit hot. She cooled her face with her hand, just to meet Linda’s teasing gaze, "Boyfriend?"
Linda had seen her phone, obviously asking if she had received a call from her boyfriend.
Rong Yan responded to her openly, "Mhm."
Linda was quite surprised that Rong Yan would admit it so readily, but even if she was taken aback, she wouldn’t show it on her face. Covering her mouth, she laughed, "Looks like he called to check in, haha, you and your boyfriend have such a good relationship. When will you have a chance to bring him out to meet us?"
Rong Yan knew the other party was just joking and had no real intention of meeting her boyfriend, so she went with the flow, "Definitely, when there’s a chance."
"Then it’s a deal."
Linda liked talking to smart people and hated dealing with those too dense to catch a joke, the type who would take things seriously and make it awkward to back down. It was much better to jokingly feign closeness like this.
If it had been someone like Fu Ya, who was a bit slow, she definitely would have responded with something like ’Ah, he doesn’t have time’, putting Linda in an awkward spot.
Rong Yan was quite good in this regard.
Linda’s impression of Rong Yan improved quite a bit, and she took the initiative to say, "Qi Yue will be done in at most five minutes. You can tell Estelle to get ready to head over."
"OK, thanks, Linda." ƒreewebηoveℓ.com
Linda felt even more fond of Rong Yan, "You’re welcome."
