Chapter 1562. Illusion (2)
“But, Miss Dongfang, our boss wants to talk to you personally about something.” The driver in the front hesitated and decelerated the car slightly.
“It’s okay. I’ll send him a message to explain when I arrive at the hotel. All you need to do is just drive me back to the hotel,” Dongfang Liuyun responded indifferently, and at this moment, the driver could only give up.
This night seemed the same as before, but what made Dongfang Liuyun feel that there was a subtle change was that she would actually call Qi Lei. In her opinion, no matter what led her to do so, it was all a little…
The night was getting later and later. After putting the kids to sleep, Mu Yuchen went back to the bedroom tiredly and took a bath. Just as he lay down, the phone on the bedside vibrated, and he knew who was calling him without guessing, so he pressed the ‘answer’ button without glancing at the caller ID.
“Why did it take you so long to answer the phone? Have the kids gone to bed?” Sure enough, the voice of a woman complaining came through, and Mu Yuchen also leaned back on the bedhead with the blanket. He grabbed the book on the side with one hand, opened it, and replied, “They’ve slept, and I just finished showering. Are you back in the hotel? Don’t socialize until too late in the night. Get them to drive you back to the hotel when it’s time.”
He was very worried every time she was on a business trip and always felt troubled because he was not there to watch over her.
“It’s okay. I just got back to the hotel. Today’s banquet was quite a large affair. I had a few drinks, so my head is a little groggy at the moment.” Xi Xiaye sighed lightly as she sat on the sofa, raised her hand, and rubbed her glabella.
“Your drinking capacity has regressed. It seems that you’ve become more finicky, Director Xi.” A faint smile flashed across the corners of his lips while he turned a page with his hand and replied to her, “Ask the front desk to get you a mug of ginseng tea, then take a good bath, and rest early.”
“Aren’t you the one who has been spoiling me? I used to have quite a high tolerance level when it comes to drinking, but now I can’t do it anymore. By the way, Uncle Lan should’ve sent you the information about the South River project, hasn’t he?” Xi Xiaye remembered this all of a sudden after she had had the time to alleviate the discomfort.
