Chapter 635: Chapter 635: Isn’t it not yet 1 o’clock?
“Hello.”
“Didn’t you go to shoot the advertisent?”
Before answering, she hadn’t noticed who had called; only after picking up did she realize she seed to have accepted a video chat. Her subconscious move to press the phone against her ear resulted in an extrely unflattering angle of her face—it couldn’t get uglier.
Rong Yan reacted promptly, walking aside and distancing the phone from her face. Looking at the man on the screen, with his broad brow and outstandingly handso features, it was none other than Li Shengxiao.
It wasn’t just Li Shengxiao she saw; Gu Ming’s figure was also in the background.
It seed he was arranging various foods on the coffee table in front of Li Shengxiao. From the background in the video, he appeared to be in Li Group’s office with an extensive 360° glass view. The black, white, and grey decor matched the man’s noble temperant flawlessly, as picturesque as a painting.
That’s when Rong Yan realized sothing and asked him in surprise, “Li Shengxiao, what ti is it now?”
“12 o’clock.”
“Pfft, 12 o’clock?” Rong Yan glanced at Estelle’s office clock, which seed to indicate it was indeed 12. She looked at the man on the video with confusion, “I rember we agreed on 1 o’clock. Why are you calling at 12? What about your scheduled talk with the mayor of Lin City?”
At 12 o’clock, her Little Baby was probably already eager and preparing to video call her.
If he tried to call and found the line busy… She could imagine Little Baby puffing up his cheeks in frustration, uncertain whether Mrs. Lin could coax him into eating his al peacefully.
Rong Yan worried for a mont before letting go of her concern.
Her Little Duidui was a well-behaved child, very filial to his grandmother; if Mrs. Lin insisted, he would probably obediently listen to her.
It was precisely the ti agreed upon for Little Baby to call, yet Li Shengxiao had called instead. She truly didn’t know how to explain this to the big and the small one.
Li Shengxiao, watching the magnified lively eyes of the young woman on the computer, felt his mood lighten and lounged on the sofa casually, saying to her, “I finished talking, I ended it an hour early.”
Gu Ming, standing by his side, sneakily glanced at Rong Yan on the video and wanted to ntion that right after the eting, the mayor eagerly invited the president for a al, but the president flatly rejected him without a second word. Not only did he reject the offer, but he also asked him to escort the mayor away, clearly hinting for the mayor to leave early…
By the ti he returned, Mr. Li had already arranged for a Michelin-starred lunch to be delivered. Then he was sitting on the sofa, video-calling Miss Rong with smooth efficiency… Gu Ming guessed that Mr. Li likely had this planned since the morning; otherwise, he wouldn’t have negotiated with the mayor of Lin City so swiftly.
Mr. Li calling Miss Rong at 12 o’clock to report about lunch, Gu Ming could guess with his toes that it was mostly because he worried that if he waited until 1 o’clock when the normal eting ended, Miss Rong would be hungry.
There was also the fact that Miss Rong had kissed the Crown Prince goodbye with a peck in the morning and hadn’t given one to Mr. Li, which was probably why Mr. Li specifically occupied the phone during the young master’s ti.
“Oh.” Rong Yan, unaware of the intricacies of the business world, thought that finishing early was simply due to Li Shengxiao’s high work efficiency.
Looking at the busy people in her office, she hesitated before telling the man on the other end, “I’m not done with work yet, why don’t you eat first?”
Li Shengxiao had been paying attention from the start of the video and noticed that she wasn’t at the advertisent shooting site; it looked more like she was at KT Entertainnt. His eyes slightly narrowed, and he asked with a lowered voice, “Didn’t you have an advertisent shoot today?”
