When he finally let go of her, she quickly pushed him away, "We still have to go out!"
"Hmm?"
"To meet Madam Cui."
"Madam Cui? mander Cui?"
Jiang Xiao nodded.
They should still go out...
He always held back, which left Jiang Xiao sometimes feeling helpless.
After Meng Chaojun received Jiang Xiao’s call, he was stunned for quite a while.
Until Old Meng, who was deleting and revising a guest list, looked at him and saw him standing there in a daze, holding the receiver without putting it down.
"Chao Jun, what’s wrong? Whose call was it?"
Only then did Meng Chaojun e back to his senses.
"Dad, it’s Little’s call."
"Little? Is she discharged?"
"Yes, she said she’s discharged."
"So, this is about the dinner invitation, right? Dinner tonight?" Upon hearing this, Old Meng quickly put down his pen, "We haven’t done the shopping yet, we should hurry out and buy more meat and fish. Who did she say is ing over for dinner?"
Yesterday, at the hospital, Jiang Xiao had already arranged with them that after being discharged, she would invite some friends over for a meal at home to ward off bad luck and to wele Meng Xinian.
Old Meng assumed it was this matter she was referring to.
Meng Chaojun shook his head, "She said the invitation would be tomorrow. This afternoon, she’s going to the care facility, invited by Madam Cui," and at this point, he still felt a bit lost, "She also said I should go and bring my notebook."
That notebook of his contained all the proposals and details regarding that project. Jiang Xiao’s request for him to bring it was self-explanatory.
Previously, Counselor Song had told him that mander Cui was too busy to see him recently. He told Jiang Xiao to wait for an opportunity, just to fort her and himself.
He actually knew the chances were slim.
Even if he met mander Cui, he might not listen to him about these matters.
But now Jiang Xiao was unexpectedly asking him to bring the notebook to the care facility?
Even a fool should understand what this means.
What shocked him was how Jiang Xiao knew mander Cui.
He also understood mander Cui’s temperament and character well; even if Li Hanzhong spoke to mander Cui, if mander Cui was displeased, he might not give Li Hanzhong any face.
Moreover, Li Hanzhong and mander Cui rarely saw each other outside of essential major conferences; they were either busy with their own affairs, with almost no personal connections.
If it were said that Jiang Xiao was familiar with mander Cui through Li Hanzhong, Meng Chaojun would not believe it.
Old Meng understood what he meant and immediately brightened, "Then hurry and get your things, go, go! Should the guard take you there?"
He certainly didn’t want to see his son sit at home all day reading newspapers and drinking tea until old age.
Without any purpose, a person can easily bee wasted.
Moreover, being idle at home might make him continually think of Nian Chengcheng.
If it were possible to get him back to work, it would undoubtedly be the best thing!
"No need, Little said she and Xinian would drive over to pick me up."
"Alright, alright, alright."
Old Meng was elated, saying "alright" four times in a row.
Seeing the family together was the most pleasing thing for him.
"Is this Xinian’s idea?"
"No, from what I just heard from Little, it should be Madam Cui who invited her. She said she would acpany Xinian, so that’s why she’s bringing him along too."
