Chapter 1324: Chapter 1325: Didn’t reply until almost twelve o’clock
“That’s great, thank you Miss Rong.”
After voicing his thanks, he realized his fear and cautiously spoke again, “Ahem, that is, Miss Rong, if Mr. Li asks later, could you please not say it was who told you. Mr. Li doesn’t like doing these things, and if he finds out, he will definitely be angry…”
Rong Yan understood what he ant and imdiately replied, “I absolutely won’t betray you! Rest assured, Assistant Gu.”
Gu Ming felt a relief in his chest and smiled faintly, “I believe in Miss Rong.”
He seed genuinely busy and continued, “Then I’ll wait for Miss Rong to co over. I have to get back to work now.”
“Mm, goodbye. I’ll ssage you before I co over.”
“Okay.”
The call ended.
Rong Yan took out preserved eggs, lean pork, cucumbers, eggplants, and bok choy from the refrigerator. She closed the kitchen door, so that the noise from the kitchen wouldn’t disturb the person already asleep in the bedroom.
“Let’s see… chop the lean pork into mince and add ginger to remove the gay taste, peel two preserved eggs, cut them into small pieces. Preserved eggs, preserved eggs.”
Rong Yan found the preserved eggs, compared the ingredients on the cooking app to make sure nothing was wrong, rolled up her sleeves revealing fair arms, found an apron to put on, and started washing the vegetables.
Preserved egg and pork congee is very simple, it just takes ti to cook. Luckily, besides the congee, she had other things to prepare. She didn’t mind the trouble and started working on each dish one by one.
Ever since she took the initiative to cook hotpot last ti, Rong Yan found that she was quite good at cooking, or at least, she learned very quickly.
She put the rice into the casserole, added water and the prepared ingredients, and started simring them. Then she got busy preparing other things…
The kitchen was lit up as bright as day, with the occasional sound of chopping vegetables. As ti ticked by, the aroma of the food started to drift through the air.
An hour later, just as she was almost done preparing the food to bring, her phone beeped with a notification.
Rong Yan sneakily took a mont from her busyness to grab her phone and saw that it was a new ssage from the person she was planning to visit.
She opened the conversation.
The ssage was sent at 23:40.
Just one line: [Didn’t have my phone on . Yeah, working overti.]
Rong Yan scrolled back to see the ssage she sent him, which showed she ssaged him at six in the afternoon asking him if he would co ho for dinner, whether he’d work overti today, and what ti he’d co back.
But she never got a reply.
She guessed he probably didn’t have ti to reply because he was busy with work, so she didn’t send him any more ssages.
It seems like he’s either just finished his work or is taking a break now, right?
While she was thinking, her phone vibrated again.
She looked down and saw a new ssage. It was still the sa conversation, Li Shengxiao had sent another ssage: [Are you asleep?]
It was completely dark outside already.
Rong Yan leaned comfortably against the warm counter, watching the almost ready preserved egg and pork congee on the stove, and propped her chin with one hand as she replied to his ssage.
[Nope. I just checked my phone too.]
[Are you mad?]
Before she had the chance to reply, in the next second, two more ssages seamlessly ca flying in: [Don’t be mad, okay? I didn’t expect to be busy until this late either, it was my oversight, making you wait. I’ll be more careful next ti.]
[What did you have for lunch? Did you have fun?]
Rong Yan hadn’t hidden the fact she t with Jiang Chenyue, and seeing the ssages, her heart thumped loudly, and for so reason, the image of him sitting at his spacious desk, looking down and replying to her ssages surfaced in her mind.
