Chapter 627 - 627 Little Smart
627 Little Smart
After the meal, Chu Ning relaxed a little. She leaned back in her chair, rubbed her stomach, and sighed in satisfaction. “I’m stuffed. The western food in your hotel is really delicious.”
Seeing her contented look, Yan Shen smiled. “I’ll get you a black card from my family. You can come and eat anytime in the future.”
Chu Ning’s eyes lit up. “Really? Boss Yan is generous!”
The duo subsequently took a walk near the hotel to aid in the digestion of their food. Chu Ning felt an indescribable sense of comfort as the cool breeze blew. “I haven’t asked you yet. Why did you think of asking me to go on a trip?”
Yan Shen pondered for a moment; he couldn’t possibly say it was because he wanted her to relax after seeing that she was under so much pressure recently. “There’s no reason. I just wanted to come out and have fun, but I didn’t want to be alone, so I asked you along.”
Chu Ning tilted her head and gave him a look. “Come on, there’s nothing to hide between us. If you don’t want to be alone, why don’t you call Xu Xi? Could it be…”
When Yan Shen heard her pause, his heart skipped a beat. Could it be that she had noticed it?
Chu Ning suddenly stopped and put her hands on her hips. “Don’t tell me you think that I’d be devastated after Cloud Shopping had been acquired! Do you think I’m that weak?”
Chu Ning covered her chest with a pained expression. “Trust crisis! This is a crisis of trust!”
Yan Shen breath caught in his chest. He could not tell whether he was disappointed or glad. In the end, he was even more speechless. “No such thing! I asked you to come out and have fun, but you still picked on me. Next time, I’ll let you be surrounded by those old foxes! I’ll let anxiety consume you till you’re spinning round in circles.” As he spoke, he strode forward.
Chu Ning hastily chased after her sponsor for the trip to comfort him. “Boss Yan, Boss Yan is so magnanimous…”
Yan Shen was amused by her expression. He did not expect that such an outstanding person like her would be so unenlightened one day. She had clearly made it known to the world that she liked him, but she had never mentioned giving up.
As Yan Shen thought about it, he suddenly heaved a sigh of relief. This was good as well. This way, he wouldn’t have to worry about her when he left.
Chu Ning looked at Yan Shen giving a sigh and hurriedly asked, “Boss Yan, what are our plans for tomorrow?”
Yan Shen thought for a moment. “Let’s go to the amusement park. Then, we’ll go shopping in the mall. Oh, and there’s also an antique street in B City that’s quite famous. We can take our time.”
Chu Ning nodded.” Alright, I’ll accompany you wherever you go.”
Yan Shen looked up to check the skies. “It’s getting late. Let’s go back to the hotel and sleep early. Otherwise, we won’t be energetic tomorrow and won’t be able to enjoy ourselves.”
After returning to the hotel, Chu Ning washed up and sat on a chair by the window. She dialed the contact number Bai Hong had sent her.
The call went through. A female voice came from the other end. It was unexpectedly pleasant to listen to. “Hello, who is it?”
Chu Ning followed Bai Hong’s instructions. “I want to buy a cell phone. I heard that you’re the best second-hand phone dealer in B City.”
The voice on the other end changed to a man’s. “That was my assistant. You want to buy a cell phone? What kind do you want?”
When she called at noon, Bai Hong said that if she wanted to look for someone, she should say that she wanted to buy a Nokia phone, and if she wanted to do something, she should say that she wanted to buy a Little Smart phone.
“I want to buy a Little Smart phone.”
The man on the other side was silent for a moment. “Alright, then let’s add our contact numbers so that it’s easier to communicate our needs.”
Chu Ning hung up the phone and added the person’s contact details, sending the person a message. She said that she would provide sponsorship for a legitimate reason, but she received a reply saying that she would have to wait for one or two days.
Chu Ning replied and put down her phone.
Sitting by the window, she recalled everything that had happened since she had transmigrated. Demolition, creating Cloud Shopping, the establishment of the Soaring Clouds Group, Cloud Shopping being acquired, buying The Parade…She then thought of the people around her, her family, and her friends. Finally, her thoughts settled on Yan Shen’s face.
Chu Ning smiled. She thought that if Yan Shen would confess his secret to her one day, she would also be willing to ask if it was possible for her to be with him.
At this moment, Yan Shen, who was next door, was not asleep either. He thought of Chu Ning and her suspicious pause during the day. He was more and more certain that she knew it in her heart, but she did not expose him.
This kind of crush-like tacit understanding was like a fire that burned in Yan Shen’s heart, making his face burn hotter and hotter.
However, the illness was like a bucket of cold water that calmed him down.
Yan Shen thought to himself, “Fate is really impermanent. Yan Shen is about to be trapped by his own body.”
