When Jiang Chen said this, the room became quiet.
The atmosphere was a bit tense.
Seeing that everyone was looking at him nervously, Jiang Chen took a moment to process the situation before he coughed.
"Uh, is there a problem?"
Sun Jiao's expression was slightly embarrassed. Her index finger and thumb rubbed the bangs in front of her forehead as she fidgeted.
"I, I'm not ready yet."
"Oh, oh … You're the woman of a big pervert in this world, right?" While nodding her head, Lin Lin absentmindedly stuffed the bread into her mouth and suddenly said, "Pervert."
Yaoyao didn't speak and buried her head even lower, but her attention was no longer on the oat milk in the bowl. Instead, she was eavesdropping. So much so that the spoon accidentally touched his upper lip, almost sending the white oatmeal milk to his nose, accidentally spilling it all over his mouth.
As for Lilith, she still sat there expressionlessly and observed in secret.
"Ayesha, right? If I remember correctly … there's also Xia Shiyu. " Xiaorou gently put down the cutlery, put her index finger on her lower lip, and said thoughtfully, "Who should I choose?"
[Choose who?]
Jiang Chen was dumbfounded.
He had a bad feeling …
…
Future Building, top floor office.
As usual on weekdays, Xia Shiyu worked in Future Building.
"CEO Xia, this is the Bering Strait project document." A white-collared beauty in professional attire placed a document in front of Xia Shiyu. "Sundax Group ordered 90,000 tons of graphene materials, 1.2 million tons of corrosion-resistant cement, and seabed construction equipment from us. Future Heavy Industries is ready to adjust production capacity. The CEO's suggestion is that you can complete the approval of this project as soon as possible. This will be a large order worth more than 30 billion US Dollar … "
"I see. Put it here first," Xia Shiyu said concisely.
"Okay."
The white-collared office lady nodded, put down the document, and walked out the door.
Xia Shiyu leaned back in her chair and rubbed her eyebrows. While she opened the document with her right hand, she took a sip of the steaming coffee with her left hand.
Although the Bering Strait Tunnel project was a symbol of friendship between the UA and Russia after Trump's visit, in fact, Jiang Chen was the one leading the project. Because of this, Xia Shiyu was extra cautious about this project.
Future Group was like her and Jiang Chen's shared child. She watched it grow from an internet company to the behemoth it is today.
For her, it was the whole of her career.
After carefully reading every word on the document, Xia Shiyu picked up the pen and signed her name on the document. Then, as if a heavy burden had been lifted off her shoulders, she let out a sigh of relief and leaned back in her chair.
Although the process of reviewing the documents was only a short half an hour, she had been in meetings for almost a week for this project. This project document was also revised, especially when Celestial Trade suddenly launched the "Stellar Highway" project some time ago. Future Heavy Industries naturally had to prioritize meeting the needs there …
Fortunately, there were no accidents, and this revised draft finally became the final draft of the project proposal.
"Why don't we take tomorrow off, bring Ayesha, and go shopping downtown?"
Xia Shiyu leaned back in her chair and stretched her back. She took a break from her busy schedule and silently calculated in her mind. The most troublesome undersea tunnel project approval had been completed, and there were no important meetings waiting for her in the next few days.
Shopping with Ayesha was a great choice, and it was also one of Xia Shiyu's important leisure activities when she was not busy.
Ayesha's taste in fashion was very strong, and she could almost be Xia Shiyu's teacher. On the contrary, Xia Shiyu's weakness was in matching clothes. In addition to skirts, there were only professional clothes in her wardrobe. Even her mother scolded her for this, saying that she was not feminine when it came to dressing, so she still couldn't win Jiang Chen's heart …
Okay.
Xia Shiyu actually wanted to tell her mother that her daughter had already been won over. But because she didn't know how to explain the relationship between herself and Jiang Chen, as well as the "agreement" reached with Ayesha and Natasha, she chose to hide it until now and leave everything to time.
Thinking about it carefully, that day had been many years in the past.
Xia Shiyu, who was leaning against the chair, began to think as her body relaxed.
She couldn't remember exactly how she changed her mind, accepted Ayesha's identity, and was willing to share Jiang Chen with her. She only vaguely remembered that her mind was quite chaotic at the time, but she finally made the choice she made today.
But now, she didn't regret her decision.
Because she was unexpectedly satisfied with her current life. Ayesha was as docile as a little lamb and never competed with her for affection. And she admitted that if she was alone, she would be satisfied with a certain pervert …
Xia Shiyu's face suddenly turned red when she thought of something unhealthy. She quickly shook her head and drove the charming feeling and the smirk out of her head. She was usually very serious and never did anything during work hours. It was precisely because of her serious and responsible attitude that she was loved and respected by the employees.
If people saw her like this, then the image she worked hard to build would be completely destroyed!
Unfortunately, at this time, she received a call.
Xia Shiyu quickly sat up from the chair, fixed her slightly messy bangs, cleared her throat, and returned to her serious look. She pressed the answer button on the holographic screen and said solemnly.
"Hello? You are … "
"Uh, it's me."
She could tell it was Jiang Chen from the voice.
After all, he was the only one who could bypass the secretary's office and directly call her office from outside the company. But Xia Shiyu didn't know if it was her illusion, but she felt that Jiang Chen's voice was a bit strange.
[Did something happen?]
"Didn't you go back … over there?" Xia Shiyu looked at the door of the office and changed her words.
After all, they were in the office, and the secretary would come to her to pick up the documents. It was not good to let her hear something she shouldn't hear.
"Because I had something to do, so I came back early …" The expression on his face was slightly embarrassed. He turned around and stared at Xiaorou, who kept poking his waist with her index finger. Jiang Chen cleared his throat and finally made up his mind to continue, "The thing I've been talking about is done."
"What thing?" Xia Shiyu was slightly taken aback.
"It's interdimensional teleportation … teleporting a living person."
Xia Shiyu was stunned.
The silence lasted for half a minute.
When she regained her senses, she immediately said.
"Where are you now?"
"Coconut Island —"
"I'm coming to find you!"
Without waiting for Jiang Chen to finish, Xia Shiyu hung up the phone and immediately got up to leave.
