Bai Xue nodded and said, “Brother Wang, I’ve taken just a sip of this coffee. It’s a waste not to finish it. If you don’t mind, please have some.”
Hearing this, all the discomfort Old Wang felt before dissipated. He happily nodded. He was going to kiss a goddess!
Seeing Old Wang looking energized, Bai Xue knew her charm had worked again. She could have easily not ordered the coffee earlier, but thinking that Old Wang might be of some use, she threw him a bone.
Inside the car, the driver observed Bai Xue chatting happily with a guy in the coffee shop. He then made a call to inform her that he had arrived. Unexpectedly, upon seeing the call, Bai Xue didn’t leave immediately; instead, she deliberately took a sip of her coffee.
What shocked the driver most was that after Bai Xue left, the guy picked up the coffee cup she’d used and started drinking from it. Wasn’t this akin to an indirect kiss? Bai Xue was indeed not someone to be trusted.
While the driver was still in a daze, he heard someone knocking on the window.
It dawned on him that the door was locked and promptly unlocked it.
Bai Xue asked, “Why are you so late?”
Hearing Bai Xue’s complaint, the driver calmly said, “It’s rush hour now, so I got delayed.”
Bai Xue, displeased, said, “Being late is being late. No need for explanations. By the way, I’m out of money. Have the finance department transfer money to me later.”
Glancing at Bai Xue sitting in the back, the driver was surprised. More money? He had just given her half a million three days ago.
Bai Xue said, “What are you looking at? My words mean nothing now?!”
Bai Xue’s face was serious, but she felt very guilty. It was all that bastard Jiang Jun’s fault. Not only was he greedy, but he was also so good at spending.
“I’ll ask the finance department to do the necessary later,” the driver said calmly.
With that, he started the car.
Such a cold attitude was not something a subordinate should have. Bai Xue was very unhappy. She wanted to say a few more words, but after thinking about it, she gave up. She was afraid that if she angered someone, it would be disadvantageous for her.
On Christmas morning, Jiang Ling’er and Old Master Jiang were having breakfast.
The doorbell rang.
The old master was puzzled, “Butler, go see who’s here so early.”
The butler promptly went to open the door and then, with a joyful expression, said, “Sir, Miss, it’s Young Master Li from the Li family.”
As he spoke, the butler received a gift from Li Yu’s hand.
Jiang Ling’er’s face darkened.
Why was the butler being overly enthusiastic? Was this much showiness necessary?
Li Yu took off his coat and handed it to the butler, said thanks, and entered the dining room.
Li Yu said, “Uncle Jiang, Ling’er, good morning.”
Jiang Ling’er stood up and poured a cup of warm milk for Li Yu.
She said, “Go wash your hands, and then come have some milk.”
Li Yu obediently went to wash his hands and then sat down.
“Li Yu, didn’t you give me a gift yesterday?” Old Master Jiang said with a smile. “Why are you giving another one to me today?”
“Uncle Jiang, yesterday was Christmas Eve. Today is Christmas,” said Li Yu.
Old Master Jiang nodded. “True, these Western festivals are quite lively now. How do you plan to celebrate?”
Jiang Ling’er handed Li Yu a piece of pastry, saying, “We haven’t decided yet.”
Li Yu remained calm but was very puzzled. Didn’t they already have a plan? Why say they hadn’t decided?
The cat jumped onto Jiang Ling’er’s lap and started to act cute.
Although it was very common, Li Yu couldn’t help but cast a cold glance at the cat.
The cat provocatively rubbed against Jiang Ling’er’s chest.
Li Yu was somewhat annoyed and said, “Ling’er, hurry up and find a female cat for it!”
This cat was d*mn perverted. It rubbed against Ling’er so brazenly.
Jiang Ling’er didn’t notice Li Yu’s displeasure and just petted the cat, saying, “It’s been neutered already. Why does it need a female cat? Are you jealous?”
Even so, Li Yu was still unhappy.
Li Yu said, “Why does that neutered cat keep rubbing against you? Make it go away, it’s annoying.”
The cat seemed to understand Li Yu’s words and immediately meowed in displeasure.
Jiang Ling’er caressed it as she said, “Be obedient, your great-uncle is old, don’t argue with him. Here, let Mommy comfort you.”
With that, she kissed the cat.
Li Yu was speechless.
Why didn’t Ling’er take the initiative to kiss him?
After breakfast, the two of them went out together.
As soon as they got in the car, Li Yu asked, “Ling’er, did the plan change?”
Jiang Ling’er nodded and said, “Around four in the morning, Wen Mo called me and said that Nuannuan has acute appendicitis and is in the hospital. So I canceled the original plan.”
Hearing this, Li Yu became relieved.. He asked, “So, what’s our new plan?”
