At the factory.
Chu Yichen was inspecting a new model of car with an entourage behind him.
His phone rang. He looked down at it. The person-in-charge stopped the introduction. He didn’t even dare to breathe until the Chairman was done.
Chu Yichen swiped his finger across the screen and saw Li An’an’s message. He replied with a single word: Wait.
After sending the message, he slipped the phone back into his pocket.
“Continue.”
The person in charge of the project continued with the introduction. This was a new model of car launched by Chu Enterprise. It was a super sports car with an Al system. Targeted at the elite population globally, not only did it sport a cool design, its performance was top-notch. It could bring huge benefits to Chu Enterprise!
At the hotel.
Li An’an’s legs were sore from standing, so she squatted down and waited. When she was tired, she stood up again.
Gu Na’s expression turned colder and colder. “Li An’an, are you playing a trick on me?”
“No, Chu Yichen is busy. He said he’ll be there soon.” Li An’an showed Gu Na the message from Chu Yichen.
“Hmph, you’d better not lie to me. Otherwise, you won’t be able to bear the consequences.”
Gu Na went back to her room in a huff. As long as Chu Yichen would come, she was willing to wait patiently.
Li An’an’s legs were aching like hell. It had been five hours. Chu Yichen should be done no matter how busy he was. She had no choice but to call.
Chu Yichen left the factory and got into his luxury car. The car sped towards the Chu Enterprise office. He had a contract to sign and a press conference afterwards.
He had to make an appearance.
Li Cheng reported his schedule to him.
Chu Yichen leaned back in his seat and closed his eyes to rest. His calm and sharp aura reminded one of a sleeping lion.
He was used to such high-intensity work.
“Chairman, your phone is ringing” Li Cheng pointed out.
Chu Yichen did not open his eyes. He was still resting with his eyes closed. Li Cheng did not dare to continue. He asked the driver to turn up the temperature of the air conditioner so that the Chairman would not catch a cold.
Li An’an called him three times in a row. Just as she was about to explode, Chu Yichen arrived at the office building and opened his eyes.
He picked up the call unhurriedly. “What is it?”
Li An’an was furious. “Didn’t you say you were coming? Why aren’t you here yet?”
“Wait.”
“Still? Are you playing a trick on me? Gu Na is very arrogant and willful. I’ll have extremely bad luck if I offend her. How can you do this?”
Chu Yichen got into his private elevator. When the elevator reached the top floor, his secretary walked over.
“Chairman, the other party’s Chairman is already waiting for you in the reception room.”
“Uh huh.”
Chu Yichen was about to hang up.
“Chu Yichen, wait!” Li An’an yelled so loudly that even Chu Yichen’s secretary could hear her.
Chu Yichen raised his eyebrow.
A woman. The Chairman was talking to a woman. The secretary was stunned for a moment before calming herself down again.
Chu Yichen’s tone was icy. “What did you call me?”
Li An’an felt guilty. “I’m sorry I was just anxious. I apologize. Can you come quickly? My feet are about to break from standing around. You don’t want Miss Gu to leave, right? You know that a girl will get really furious if kept waiting for too long. Can you come quickly? Gu Na brought bodyguards. If you don’t come, I won’t be able to leave.”
Li An’an felt aggrieved. Gu Na had really brought two bodyguards and they were keeping watch at the elevator. If Chu Yichen didn’t come today, she suspected that Gu Na would ask them to throw her down from the tenth floor.
Chu Yichen paused for a moment. “I’ll try my best! But I believe you’ll find a way!”
Li An’an gritted her teeth in anger. Chu Yichen must have stood her up on purpose. That was the end of her! She had too much faith in Chu Yichen’s character. Now it seemed this man was unreliable. She had to think of a way to leave.. She’d be a fool if she waited any longer!
