Plans can never keep up with changes. Ji Yanli thought he could have dinner with Lu Chaochao after get off work, but he thought that there was a problem with work abroad and he needed to fly over immediately to deal with it.
At around five o'clock, he returned home and met with Lu Chaochao and was about to leave.
"Ah, Brother Ji, are you going on a business trip?"
Lu Chaochao was very happy to see Ji Yanli coming home. When he heard that he was about to go on a business trip, his mood suddenly dropped.
I couldn't help but get mist in my eyes, and felt a lot of reluctance in my heart.
They had only known each other for two or three days, so how could they feel like this?
Lu Chaochao hated himself for not living up to expectations, but he couldn't stop crying.
This made the man feel distressed, and Aunt Wang pushed him hard, then returned to the kitchen, stretched out her head to observe the ambiguous couple in the living room.
Tsk tsk tsk, look at this situation, it’s weird that they’re not in love!
Aunt Wang sees their relationship very clearly.
In the living room, Ji Yanli took a tissue and gently wiped Lu Chaochao's tears. His words were as gentle as water. This arrogant man lowered his proud head to comfort her in front of her.
"I'll be back after finishing my work. If you want me, you can send me a message at any time. Although I don't guarantee that I can reply to you in time, I promise that I will reply."
Lu Chaochao was a little sad at first, but he couldn't care less when he heard such words. He felt like a deer in his heart. He twisted his body and said in a low voice, "I... I won't miss you."
Ji Yanli raised his eyebrows, with a smile on his eyes, "Well, since Chao Chao doesn't want to miss me, I'll go pack my things."
After saying that, he pretended to be pitiful and left.
Lu Chaochao was no match for the old fox. He fell into the trap with one move and could not get up. The moment the man left, he grabbed his sleeve.
"I...I will miss you and will send you a message. Please pay attention to safety and eat well."
As a contemporary college student, Lu Chaochao was so lacking in language when faced with the quarterly banquet that he had clearly thought of many words, but even though they were in his throat, he still could not speak them out.
Fortunately, Ji Yanli is a guy who knows how to look at people's faces. He touched the little girl's head and spoke softly.
"I listen to Chao Chao. Then you have a good rest at home. If you have anything, you can call me, or you can ask Special Assistant Zhou, or you can tell Aunt Wang, any of them can help you."
If it weren't for the fact that the work abroad was urgent and he had to go there to deal with it, in fact, he wouldn't be worried about letting the little guy stay home alone.
If she knew that her evil stepsister's ex-fiancé hadn't found out anything, she wouldn't know how heartbroken she would be.
But the work abroad was too urgent and he had to deal with it immediately.
As for the Lu family, the Xu family should wait until he comes back to take care of it.
Ji Yanli's eyes flashed with a hint of coldness before returning to the gentle image of his elder brother.
When he came out of the bedroom with his suitcase, Special Assistant Zhou was waiting for him at the door.
The little girl stood at the door, her head lowered and a little overwhelmed. Ji Yanli took out a gift box from her body and gave it to her.
"As a parting gift, you can open it after I leave."
Lu Chaochao was stunned, "Do I have any gifts for you when you are on a business trip?"
"Of course, I can't accompany you anymore, so of course I have to give you a gift to express my apology."
Ah, why is this man so good at talking?
There were obviously no unnecessary movements or excessive words, but when you hear it, it makes your heart beat.
After Lu Chaochao heard this, he took the gift with a blushing face.
She was also thinking about whether she should prepare a gift for him when he came back.
"Brother Ji, how long will you be leaving?"
Ji Yanli showed an apologetic expression, "I'm sorry, Chao Chao, I don't know how long it will take to handle it. It may be three or four days, it may be more than ten days. I promise to go home as soon as the work is handled."
He really couldn't bear to let go of the little guy in front of him.
They haven't known each other for a long time. Once he leaves, the little guy will be unfamiliar with him again the next time they meet.
Thinking of this, the man gave a rare sigh, tried his best to restrain his desire not to go to work, touched the little girl's head and said.
"How about just living here, Aunt Wang can make delicious food for you."
"Okay." Lu Chaochao couldn't refuse such a gentle banquet, so he could only answer obediently with his heart warm and his eyes red.
"So cute."
After the quarterly banquet comforted Lu Chaochao, he went to talk to Aunt Wang again.
"Aunt Wang, don't tell your family about Chao Chao's existence for the time being. Her family is a bit complicated, and she and I have not officially confirmed our relationship. When the time comes, I will take her home."
Aunt Wang nodded happily. Now she really understood that their young master really recognized this little girl.
"She's a little introverted, don't tease her all the time."
"Oh, I know, just go to work quickly."
Finally, Ji Yanli got into the elevator with a trace of reluctance. When the door closed, his heart became empty.
He also didn't know what kind of surprise Lu Chaochao would bring him when he came back.
