Chapter 143 Counting the Days and Waiting for His Return
After Jiang Ruoxi left the Lin family's villa and returned to the apartment, it was already past ten o'clock. Although Lin Zhanpeng kept her, today is already the fifteenth day after Leng Yan's business trip. Will he come back?
She stood alone in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, and the winter moonlight was a bit cold. She suddenly missed the feeling of him hugging her. It was so warm that she actually missed him.
I thought she would be happy when he left. I thought she wouldn't wait for him, but why is she counting the days? Is she waiting for him to come back?
She didn't know if her waiting was meaningful? In the past half month, he seemed to have disappeared without even a single phone call. Maybe he was too busy to make phone calls?
It wasn't until a whine came from his feet that Jiang Ruoxi lowered her head, smiled slightly, leaned down and picked up Qiuqiu, "Qiuqiu, why aren't you sleeping yet? Are you hungry? Or are you waiting for me to come back?"
"
Jiang Ruoxi walked to the sofa and sat down, looking out the window. It was daytime in the United States, so he must be busy? Or, he was already on the plane, preparing to return to China?
New York, USA, in the most prosperous area of the city, in the office on the top floor of a building with more than 30 floors, Leng Yan was sitting at his desk, his long fingers quickly sliding across the keyboard.
There was a knock on the door, "Come in." Leng Yan opened her thin lips lightly without raising her head.
The double frosted glass doors of the office were pushed open, and Shi Lei walked in wearing a gray suit, "Boss."
"How did things go?" After Leng Yan clicked the send button, he raised his head and looked at Shi Lei sitting opposite.
"Things are going very well, boss. As long as you say a word, everything will be over." As Shi Lei spoke, he handed the information in his hand to Leng Yan.
Leng Yan opened the folder and looked at the materials on it. He didn't speak until the folder was closed.
"Boss, when do you plan to deal with it?" Shi Lei has been dealing with the new company's affairs in the United States in the past few months, including of course the Leng Group.
"Put it aside for now!" Leng Yan put the information into the drawer and said to Shi Lei.
"Well. Boss, when are you going to return to China? I'm afraid that Director Leng will become suspicious after this long trip." Shi Lei has followed Leng Yan for so many years, arranging everything. He doesn't want anything to happen at the last critical moment.
trouble.
Leng Yan nodded, "Well, I will make my own arrangements." Now, it's time for him to go back. This time in the United States, it will take longer than he expected. I wonder if that little woman is doing well? Is there any?
Miss him? I wonder if she stayed in the apartment honestly, or did she work part-time while he was away?
"Boss, Ye Zilin is waiting for you in the lounge." Shi Lei passed the message for her.
"How long has she been here?" Leng Yan leaned against the back of the chair comfortably.
"It's been two hours." Shi Lei said to him.
Leng Yan stood up and picked up the suit jacket hanging on the hanger. "I won't be here this afternoon. I asked Pang Jie to sort out the things I gave him and send them to my email in the evening." After saying this, he
Then walked out of the office.
The lounge was on the next floor. Leng Yan opened the door and saw Ye Zilin flipping through a magazine and drinking coffee, "Zilin."
"Yan, why are you down here? Don't you think you still have something to be busy with?" Ye Zilin came with Leng Yan on vacation, so she was not involved in the affairs of Leng Yan's company, but she knew that he was very busy.
Leng Yan walked to her and sat down with a smile, "You are here, you have to put it aside first." He put his arms around her waist and let her lean on his chest, "You are not going to go out to the mall today.
Transferred? How did you come to the company?"
"Because I'm afraid you'll be too tired. I want you to go shopping with me, but I'm afraid it will disturb your work." Ye Zilin was considerate to him. It doesn't matter whether she has annual leave or not. This time she came with Leng Yan.
, just wanted to be by his side, or should I say, he wanted to watch him all the time. His attitude towards Jiang Ruoxi had already frightened her.
"What does it matter? I'm not busy now." Leng Yan rubbed her hair, "Then let's go! Wherever you want to go, I will accompany you in the afternoon, okay?"
Ye Zilin nodded, he finally had time to accompany her.
Leng Yan drove Ye Zilin to the street. As Christmas was approaching, the streets were full of joy and excitement. People were coming and going. Every store had begun to prepare for Christmas, with Christmas trees, decorations, and all kinds of things.
Balloons, stickers for glass windows.
"Yan, the atmosphere of Christmas is so strong!" Ye Zilin walked on the street with Leng Yan on her arm. "Should we spend Christmas here and then go back?"
"Do you want to spend Christmas here?" Leng Yan turned around and asked.
"Is that okay?" Ye Zilin wanted to stay with him like this forever. Even if she didn't return to China, as long as the two of them were together, what else would it matter?
Leng Yan did not answer. If he goes back after Christmas, it will be almost a month since he left Huahai City. Does he want to stay a few more days?
"If it doesn't work, forget it. It doesn't matter to me." Ye Zilin didn't hear the answer, and there was endless disappointment on her beautiful face.
She didn't know why Leng Yan was hesitating. As long as he was willing, he could be free from everything. This was what he had always wanted, but why was he so hesitant to make a decision now? Is it because of Jiang Ruoxi? Is it because he couldn't let go of Jiang Ruoxi?
, is that why you keep putting things off?
"Okay, we'll go back after Christmas." Leng Yan couldn't bear to see her disappointed, so he finally agreed to her.
"Great, then should we prepare more things for Christmas, such as Christmas trees, decorative lights, and stickers?" Ye Zilin said to him.
Leng Yan seemed to be a little absent-minded. His eyes stopped at a piano store. There were all kinds of musical instruments, including pianos of course. He thought about Jiang Ruoxi sitting in front of the piano, serious and focused. She was so quiet and charming.
People can't help but feel excited.
His heart is moved? Is he also moved by Jiang Ruoxi like this? No! He has Ye Zilin in his heart, so how can he tolerate her? One day, she, Jiang Ruoxi, is destined to be separated from him.
"Yan, Yan?" Ye Zilin pulled his arm and pulled him back from his thoughts, "What's wrong with you?"
"Nothing, don't you want to buy something? Then let's go!" Leng Yan turned his head slightly and glanced at the white piano in the piano store, then turned his head and walked forward with Ye Zilin.
Ye Zilin bought a lot of Christmas gifts, and Leng Yan helped her carry them. The two of them walked through one store after another, and then walked back with two large shopping bags in their hands with satisfaction.
Sitting in the car, Ye Zilin imagined how she would spend the holidays with Leng Yan, how she would decorate their apartment with a more Christmas atmosphere, and tomorrow, she would go to pick out Christmas gifts for him while driving
Leng Yan, who was in the car, didn't say anything, just looked ahead intently.
