Chapter 646: Scheming
Translator: Henyee Translations | Editor: Henyee Translations
Trying to complete their work within seven days was already quite efficient. If they were to compress it into three days, wouldn’t that mean Master Si wouldn’t get any rest at all!
“Do you have any questions?” Lu Si looked up at him, his eyes filled with threat.
Jiang Hai waved his hands repeatedly, “No problem. Originally, during these seven days, we were supposed to meet several other company CEOs separately. I’ll go arrange it now, and we’ll advance all the meetings to daytime within these three days. You can handle the documents alone during the remaining time, Master Si.”
“Alright, go ahead.” Lu Si lowered his head, already immersed in work mode.
Jiang Hai looked on in amazement, holding his schedule tightly, and started contacting the secretaries of those CEOs one by one to adjust their meeting times.
One couldn’t deny that their boss, Master Si, was really going all out for Miss Mei. He had reached the point where he was disregarding his own health.
When dawn broke the next day, Jiang Hai woke up dazedly from the sofa.
As soon as he opened his eyes, he saw Lu Si still maintaining the posture from last night, bent over the desk, writing and drawing on the paper.
“Master Si, you should take a break and have some breakfast first.” The butler came over dutifully to persuade him. 𝗳r𝐞ew𝚎bn𝚘ve𝚕.c𝗼𝗺
Only then did Lu Si realize it was already morning.
Frowning, he stared at the documents in his hand and shook his head, “I’ll be there in ten minutes. You go ahead and attend to other matters.”
“Uh, alright.” The butler didn’t dare to insist and could only give Jiang Hai a hopeful look, hoping that this secretary who often accompanied Master Si could persuade him.
Master Si was working so hard; his body wouldn’t be able to handle it sooner or later!
Jiang Hai also felt it was inappropriate. He quickly got up from the sofa, poured a cup of hot tea, and placed it next to Lu Si’s hand. “Master Si, you should have breakfast first, then take a short nap before going out later. You have a meeting with Mr. Mu at 9 am.”
“No need. What time is it now?” Lu Si asked without lifting his head.
Jiang Hai glanced at his watch and said, “It’s 7:40.”
Lu Si nodded.
The living room fell into silence for a while.
Jiang Hai opened his mouth, hesitated for a while, but didn’t dare to speak.
It wasn’t until ten minutes passed that Lu Si finally put down his pen and picked up his phone, visibly relaxing.
“Master Si, you should go have your meal first. I’ll clean up here.” Jiang Hai took the opportunity to persuade him.
Lu Si stood up with his phone and dialed a number, calculating the time.
Sure enough, there was a cute whimper from the other end.
Lu Si couldn’t help but smile, “You lazy cat, it’s time to get up.”
Mei Shu reached out from under the blanket to turn off the annoying alarm clock on the bedside table, “Hmm, I’m awake. Did you just wake up too?”
“Yeah.” Lu Si didn’t hesitate at all, “I’ll have a meal soon and then head to the company. You don’t have to worry too much about my going to Wendith this time. It’s just a travel for me. We’ll discuss everything after I arrive.”
Mei Shu was so sleepy that she could barely speak, squeezing out a nasal sound of protest, which made Lu Si’s heart itch, as if scratched by a little cat.
“Shu’er, I really miss you. Can we have a kiss next time we meet?”
“Huh?” Mei Shu suddenly woke up, her eyes widened like bronze bells, full of shock, “What nonsense did you just say?”
Lu Si, without any hesitation, said, “I miss you. Can I kiss you next time?”
“Ah Si, did you stay up late last night?” Mei Shu’s voice was dark and gloomy from the receiver.
Lu Si was stunned for a moment, then calmly smiled, “Why would you say that?”
Mei Shu said, “Otherwise, how could you be so incoherent!”
Lu Si amusedly curled his lips, “Then let’s make it a deal. Shu’er, wait for me.”
With that, he hung up the phone, not giving Mei Shu any chance to retort.
Mei Shu held onto her phone, calming her wildly beating heart for a long time. She slapped her steaming cheeks, “Damn Lu Si, he’s really learned to scheme. I’ll teach him a lesson next time we meet!”
Having said that, she encouraged herself as if cheering herself on, leaped out of bed, quickly washed up, and got ready to leave.
Jiang Hai was already waiting outside the door, accompanied by Zhou Lin who was smiling fawningly at her.
Seeing him again, Mei Shu wasn’t surprised at all. She casually raised her eyebrows, “Are you here to make amends again?”
Zhou Lin was taken aback for a moment, “Ah, yes, yes! Since you’re new here, I just can’t rest assured!”
Mei Shu sneered, “Then it’s perfect. Help me with something.”
Zhou Lin immediately became serious, “You just tell me.”
Mei Shu said, “I accidentally lost a bracelet yesterday. Help me find it.”
“Huh? Find a bracelet?” Zhou Lin never expected that the task she’d give him would be such a small thing.
But Mei Shu was dead serious, “That bracelet was a token of affection from Lu Si to me. If it’s lost, Lu Si will surely be furious.. Originally, this matter had nothing to do with you, but since it happened on your turf, finding a bracelet shouldn’t be difficult, right?”
