”Xiao Yun, book two tickets to the China Anlan City tomorrow morning at 6 o'clock, you and I will meet clients together.” In the company, while the assistant was busy serving the coffee, Chu Yu asked.
The time on the contract documents was 4: 00 p.m. Beijing time the day after tomorrow. She had booked a ticket for tomorrow morning, which was more than enough for the jet lag, and this time she just wanted to finish her work and come back as soon as possible. She was eager to catch a flight back to Australia the same night after seeing her clients.
”Alright, Chief Chu.” Xiao Yun nodded and put down the coffee before leaving the office.
Not long later, Chu Yu's phone rang, seeing the name that was constantly moving on the screen, he smiled and picked up the phone: ”How is it, is fashion week fun?”
Rui Ni, as the representative of R2, participated in the biggest fashion week in the industry, so logically speaking, it should be much easier there than at the company, but Rui Ni twitched his mouth on the other end of the phone and said: ”Not fun, I missed you.”
”I think you are missing Qi Hao, right?” Chu Yu laughed and teased her, without showing any mercy, he exposed Rui Ni's identity. The place to attend Fashion Week was several continents away, and furthermore, they would need to wait another week before they could return. With her many years of friends, she naturally knew what Rui Ni meant.
”There is no way …” Rui Ni on the other side of the phone denied it with a red face, but unknowingly, a faint smile appeared on his face.
”Ah right, Lin, today I saw the document arrangement sent out by the company's upper echelons. Are you going to personally meet the customer from China's Anlan City?” She suddenly thought about the reason she called Chu Yu.
When she woke up in the morning and saw the three words on the documents, she instantly lost all sleepiness. When she wanted to make a call, she suddenly remembered that it was Chu Yu's work time in the morning.
”Yeah, I'll go with Xiao Yun. For tomorrow morning's flight at around 6 AM, I'll probably have to leave Youzi in Chu Jingnian's care …” He picked up the spoon and stirred the black coffee in the white porcelain cup.
Giving Youzi to Chu Jingnian meant that she definitely had to put her at ease. Previously, when she was travelling for two or three days, she would occasionally give Jiu Youzi to Chu Jingnian to take care of.
”You know that's not what I'm going to say.” Rui Ni interrupted her faintly.
On the other hand, Chu Yu was in a slight daze. She did not notice that the stirring movements were so quick that it caused her to spill out quite a bit of coffee. She put down her spoon and wiped the table with a tissue in a flurry.
Why was it that before he said that name, he would lose his composure whenever he mentioned a topic related to him?
”Ah Lin, are you sure you want to go? Why don't you come to Fashion Week, and I'll go meet a customer at Anlan City. Forest again? Are you listening? ” There was no reply for a long time, so Rui Ni raised his voice slightly.
Chu Yu's train of thought was pulled back, he threw the coffee soaked tissue into the trash can and replied: It's fine, I'll go, there's no need to go through all this.
She hung up the phone and looked out the French window. The sunlight shone down onto the soft coralline carpet. She took a sip of coffee from the table. The bitter taste made her feel more awake.
After getting off work, he went to the nursery. Fortunately, he didn't arrive too late today, as there were quite a few children in the nursery playing happily with Youzi.
”Mommy, it's time to get off work …” ”Teacher, I'm leaving now. See you tomorrow.” Youzi had sharp eyes. Just as Chu Yu walked to the window, she could already see everything clearly. She quickly ran down the slide and rushed into the classroom to pack her schoolbag. When Chu Yu reached the entrance of the classroom, Youzi was already running towards him with her backpack in her arms.
