95: Chapter 95 Return from Business Trip
Chen Guangke pouted, feeling truly wronged.
"Can you stop talking to him all the time?"
"Is what I say always so unreasonable? Or are you just unconditionally trying to side with Old Shen?"
Wu Ya was stunned by Chen Guangke's question.
Before she could figure out how to answer, Chen Guangke turned and left directly.
"Bang!"
The conference room door slammed shut forcefully.
Only Wu Ya and Shen Yan remained in the room.
An awkward atmosphere spread through the air.
After tidying up the documents on the table, Wu Ya said, "Then Brother Shen, if you don't need anything else, I'll take my leave..."
Shen Yan nodded, but just as Wu Ya was about to leave the conference room, he said to her, "I'm sorry, Xiao Wu."
Wu Ya turned around, her face full of confusion.
"Why are you apologizing to me?"
Shen Yan smiled, not mentioning the time he heard her crying in the stairwell last time.
"It's nothing, I just wanted to apologize. Let's go out together."
Wu Ya looked at Shen Yan as he brushed past her, completely bewildered.
Wait a minute...
What exactly did Shen Yan mean?
She didn't figure out the question even after returning to her seat.
Since she couldn't figure it out, she decided to seek outside help!
Thinking this, she tapped Chen Guangke next to her.
"Hey! I have a question for you."
Chen Guangke grunted and asked, "What do you want to ask me?"
Wu Ya leaned close to his ear and whispered, "Didn't you leave first just now? Brother Shen suddenly apologized to me. What do you think that was about?"
Chen Guangke's expression changed, and he replied somewhat sharply, "Can you stop always asking me things related to him?"
Wu Ya was startled by his sudden outburst.
The other colleagues were also startled by the commotion they caused.
"What's wrong with you two? Are you arguing again?"
"Oh dear, you two bickering isn't a new thing, do you need to take it so seriously?"
"Yeah, Brother Chen, are you in a bad mood today? Why are you suddenly losing your temper?"
Chen Guangke realized his reaction was a bit excessive.
He clenched his fist and stiffly apologized to Wu Ya, "I'm sorry, I wasn't in a good mood just now, and my words were a bit harsh, but I hope you won't ask me these questions again in the future."
"It's really quite pointless..."
After saying that, Chen Guangke packed his things and left work early.
Wu Ya stared at him leaving, completely dumbfounded.
She didn't know what she had done wrong from beginning to end.
...
At seven in the evening, Shen Yan glanced at his phone and asked Youyou, who was seriously drawing beside him, "Youyou, are you hungry? Is there anything you want to eat?"
As soon as Youyou heard this, she immediately put down the paintbrush in her hand.
"I want to eat a hamburger and fries, and a Coke!"
Shen Yan rejected the request without a second thought.
"No way!"
"You just ate fries yesterday. How can you eat fries again today? If you keep eating like this, your stomach will hurt, do you understand?"
Youyou lowered her head and stared at Shen Yan with her bright, expressive eyes, looking wronged.
"But Daddy, I want to eat them. Just let me eat them one more day, and I won't eat them after today!"
Shen Yan still shook his head.
Seeing that he was unwilling, Youyou got a little angry.
"Hmph! Daddy won't let me eat hamburgers and fries. Daddy is a bad guy today. I'm breaking off contact with Daddy for one minute!"
Shen Yan sighed.
This is the downside of raising a child.
It takes a lot of energy to communicate with them.
"Youyou, the reason I won't let you eat hamburgers and fries is because you already had them yesterday. We can't eat them two days in a row. Isn't that our agreement, Daddy and you?"
Youyou nodded slightly.
Shen Yan continued, "Since it's an agreement, we can't go back on our word, right? Someone who lies and breaks promises is a big bad guy, right?"
Youyou's face flushed red.
"Right... Then Youyou is a big bad guy..."
Shen Yan shook his head and replied, "No, Youyou admits her mistake and corrects it, so she is a good child. Today, let's eat something else, not hamburgers and fries, okay?"
In fact,
As long as one is willing to communicate well with a child, the child can still listen to what adults say.
The two reached a consensus and went to eat porridge near the company.
Just after finishing, Shen Yan received a call.
It was He Yunri calling.
"Are you free right now? Come over here for a moment?"
Hearing the question, Shen Yan looked at Youyou beside him hesitantly.
He actually wanted to meet He Yunri as soon as possible.
After all, He Yunri was the investor, and he needed to report the current progress of the company's project to He Yunri quickly.
But there was no one at home, and he wasn't comfortable leaving Youyou alone.
After some thought, he said to He Yunri, "Okay, but you'll have to wait for me for a while. I need to settle the child down before I can come see you."
He Yunri had no objections.
He hung up the phone.
Shen Yan then took the child to find Chen Guangke.
"Knock, knock, knock."
After knocking, the door opened.
Chen Guangke looked surprised when he saw Shen Yan and Youyou.
"Why are you two here? Aren't you taking Youyou home?"
Shen Yan told Chen Guangke about He Yunri asking to meet him.
"Oh, I see. It's fine. You leave Youyou with me, and go meet He Yunri with peace of mind."
Shen Yan smiled, "Of course I trust you, otherwise why would I come to you? You watch Youyou for me first. I'll be back in four hours at most."
Chen Guangke waved his hand.
"It doesn't matter how many hours you take to come back. Just leave Youyou with me!"
After settling Youyou, Shen Yan went to find He Yunri.
It was the same private villa.
This time, He Yunri was drinking red wine instead of tea.
"Mr. He seems to be in high spirits today?"
Hearing the question, He Yunri shook his head and replied.
"How am I in high spirits? I'm in a bad mood."
Shen Yan raised an eyebrow, sensing there was a story behind it.
"Then what's making you feel bad?"
He Yunri didn't answer directly, but asked back, "Are you very interested? If you're interested, I'll tell you. If you're not interested, then I won't say anything."
Shen Yan chuckled and said, "Mr. He, you probably didn't ask me here today just to talk about company matters, right? Go ahead, what do you need to tell me?"
After some time apart, He Yunri had reverted to his old habit of speaking in circles. He swirled the red wine glass and said to Shen Yan, "It's not that I have something to tell you. It's clearly you who has something to tell me, right?"
Shen Yan was truly too lazy to beat around the bush with He Yunri. He nodded and said, "That's right, I do have something to tell you. This is our company's latest software project proposal."
"Take a look."
After speaking, he handed the project proposal in his hand to He Yunri.
