Chapter 54: Being a Honey-Lipped Man
“Cut it out, Wen Shuyue. If anything happens to your father, I will never forgive you.” Wen Shuyue’s Mom interrupted her angrily. It was apparent that she left Wen Shuyue no choice.
As a daughter, Wen Shuyue certainly wanted her dad to be all right, but it did not mean she was going against her conscience. What’s more, her position in the company was not high. As long as Gu Ning did not agree, she still couldn’t cooperate with Lu Group.
Wen Shuyue was so upset. She took a deep breath and explained, “I’ll figure out a way to find dad, but I can’t decide about the cooperation.”
“Wen Shuyue, you…” Wen Shuyue’s mom was so angry that she couldn’t speak. Obviously, she had no idea that Wen Shuyue was so stubborn.
The two of them broke up in discord. Wen Shuyue stayed in the lounge for a long time. It was not until everyone was off duty, and there was no one in the company that she went back to the office to pack up and leave.
The job she used to be most proud of felt like a huge burden. Everyone was pushing her to make decisions against her will. It seemed that the path of revenge was far more complicated and difficult than she had imagined.
There was no vitality in the empty home. When Wen Baobao was not at home, Wen Shuyue always felt that something was missing in her heart. After a long hesitation, she called Wen Baobao.
“He is taking a bath.”
A low, cold voice came from the other end of the phone, and Wen Shuyue’s heart beat wildly when she heard it.
Her eyes kept blinking, and her mouth opened and closed. After a while, she said, “Please ask Baobao to call me after bathing.”
“Okay.” He Siming answered coldly, and then there was no sound.
Wen Shuyue nervously grabbed the phone, hesitating to speak. Especially when He Siming was silent, she didn’t know whether to hang up or not.
As time went by, Wen Shuyue couldn’t wait any longer. Then she spoke with great care, “Well… Are you still there?”
“Yes, I am.” Soon there was a voice on the other end of the line, and it was clear that He Siming had been waiting for her to speak.
Although there was only a simple answer, Wen Shuyue still had a warm current flowing slowly in her heart, and the corners of her mouth couldn’t help but rise slightly.
She pursed her lips, looked for a few topics, and then really didn’t know what to say, so she had to hang up the phone reluctantly.
“Then I’ll hang up and be sure to remind him to call me back when he’s finished bathing.” Wen Shuyue reminded him again. She had said the same thing several times in a short period of time.
“Okay.” The response to her was still an indifferent word.
Wen Shuyue could not help feeling a little lost, but she smiled bitterly and did not speak. She was about to hang up the phone when the voice on the other end of the phone sounded inexplicable.
“Are you free tomorrow night?”
“Yes.”
Perhaps subconsciously, Wen Shuyue blurted it out without thinking. However, she regretted immediately after saying it. Tomorrow was Christmas Eve, and she had promised Lin Lin to help her make an appointment with He Siming.
Even if He Siming knew about this, she still had to find a way for Lin Lin to meet He Siming, otherwise, Lin Lin may not trust her in the future.Content property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.
“I’ll pick you up tomorrow, see you.” He Siming was clearly in a good mood and spoke a little lighter than before.
Wen Shuyue could not see his look, but someone could see it clearly.
Wen Baobao was earnestly staring at He Siming, who had been here for a long time. But He Siming was making a very serious phone call and hadn’t noticed him at all.
He Siming was delighted with the phone just now. His mouth was slightly raised, which gave him a radian of complacency and charm. His amber eyes unconsciously softened a little.
“Dad, mommy just promised to meet you, and you’re so happy now?” Wen Baobao couldn’t help speaking out since He Siming hadn’t noticed him yet, and there was a hint of jealousy in his words.
He Siming was startled by the sudden sound. He turned his body stiffly and saw a pair of eyes just like his own.
Wen Baobao put his hands on his hips and shook his head helplessly like a little adult. “Dad, why can’t you chase girls when you are a mature adult? When you call a girl in the future, you must not be so indifferent. Otherwise, she won’t know what to say. ”
“…”
“By the way, Mommy must be very upset when you spoke so coldly just now.”
“…”
“Dad, you have to master the art of hitting on girls. When I was at school, the little girls loved me, not only for my good looks but also for my sweet mouth.”
“You little bastard,” He Siming frowned with mock severity.
Was his son teaching him to pick up girls?
Wen Baobao paid no attention to He Siming’s look but still said earnestly, “Dad, I’m not kidding you. Next time you call your mother, you must learn from me, otherwise…”
Wen Baobao couldn’t go on because he felt a sharp chill attacking him and he was afraid to speak again.
He swallowed hard, then said, “Dad, I’ll stop. I’ll go back to my room and call Mommy.”
Wen Baobao, unable to take a look at He Siming, quickly grabbed his cell phone and fled.
If he stayed in there any longer, he would freeze to death sooner or later.
Looking at the lovely little figure of Wen Baobao, He Siming smiled helplessly. Thinking carefully about what the little guy just said, he actually felt that it made sense.
“Should I be honey-lipped when picking up a girl?” He Siming looked puzzled and finally shrugged his shoulders.
Christmas arrived as expected, and there was a festive atmosphere everywhere, from the shopping mall to the office. When Wen Shuyue arrived at the office, she found delicately packaged Christmas fruits on the table.
She thought everyone had it, but when she looked at the other tables, she found her own with the most cards and flowers.
“Miss Wen is so popular. I’ve seen several of the staff come and give you presents this morning.” Vice President Chen laughed and joked.
Since their original misunderstanding was lifted, the relationship between them had been much better. Wen Shuyue also appreciated Vice President Chen’s ability and showed him many vital documents.
She was popular? Seriously?
Wen Shuyue pursed her lips. She always thought she was the one who was the most notorious. After all, there are still many people in her company gossiping about her and He Siming, and they even said that she was He Siming’s mistress.
