On the other side of the ocean, in a building or office.
The man was wearing a white shirt and a black, textured tie. He had a dignified and elegant temperament. His facial features were handsome and picturesque, and his jawline was clear and sharp, with an aggressive look.
Sitting at the desk, handling official duties calmly and calmly.
"Beep!" The phone next to him rang. The man glanced at the screen, and as soon as he put it to his ear, he heard a loud voice coming from the other end of the phone.
"Hey, Qi Yan, do you have time? Your sister-in-law and I would like to treat you to dinner."
"It's like this. Aren't you planning to return to China in the next few days? We want you to help bring some gifts to Tiantian and her siblings."
Qi Yan leaned on the chair, loosened his tie with one hand, his eyebrows were stern, his dark and deep eyes were as calm as lake water, and his thin lips were slightly parted.
"Yun Shao?"
Qi Yan was stunned. When did her eldest brother and sister-in-law have such a good relationship with her? What did she do?
"Yes, your sister-in-law and I are very grateful to her for helping to take care of Tiantian. If it weren't for her, Tiantian wouldn't be so lively and cheerful. You also know how worried your sister-in-law and I are about Tiantian's character. Tiantian likes it very much. She is also very dependent on her, and we want to express our feelings.”
"By the way, you haven't told me if you have time?" Qi Xu asked on the other end of the phone.
"Okay, the work here is almost finished."
"Okay, I'll ask my assistant to book a restaurant and we'll meet later."
"Um."
Qi Yan hung up the phone and thought of Yun Shao, eyes flashing with waves.
He knew Yun Shao's temperament very well, and could clearly see her pursuit of money and status from her eyes. On that night of confusion and passion, although Yun Shao had the intention to seduce him, he would not have been able to do so if he had not chosen to indulge her in the end. Succeed.
He had a high fever that day and was extremely mentally confused. He was attracted by her breathtaking face and was in a trance, so he chose to indulge himself.
There is no question of whether he regrets it or not. He is willing to take responsibility for his indulgence, so he marries her despite his mother's dissatisfaction, not that he likes her very much.
But he happened to need a wife. Yun Shao just happened to appear there at the right time. He could give her the status, money, fame and fortune she wanted. She only needed to fulfill her responsibilities as a wife. He had no requirements for her. , she is very aware of current affairs and has never taken the initiative to disturb him since her marriage.
If Qi Xu hadn't mentioned it today, he would have forgotten that he had a wife.
"Dong dong" There was a knocking sound from outside the door.
"Come in." Qi Yan recovered his thoughts.
A man with glasses walked in holding a stack of documents: "Boss, this is the approval form from the project in China."
The man handed him the printed approval form, and Qi Yan took it and looked through it.
The man stood quietly waiting for a reply. He looked up at the boss and felt a little emotional. To be honest, he was a hidden face control. Every time he saw the noble and unattainable face of the boss, he felt a little pity. The boss should Entering the entertainment industry, being so handsome and not accepting interviews is simply a waste of time.
The male assistant shook his head helplessly.
"I've gone through the approval form roughly. There will be an online meeting tonight. You can inform me."
After waiting for a moment, Qi Yan didn't hear the response and looked up at him with a sharp eyebrow.
"Yang Shuo!"
"Ah, what's wrong, boss?" Yang Shuo asked doubtfully after coming back to his senses.
"What are you wandering about during work hours?"
Yang Shuo felt guilty: "I'm sorry, boss, there won't be a next time."
Qi Yan glanced at him and said no more. Although Yang Shuo had a strange personality and had an incomprehensible look every time he looked at him, his work ability was there and he didn't bother to argue with him.
"There will be an online meeting tonight, you go and make arrangements."
"Yes, I will inform you right away."
Yang Shuo responded quickly. He didn't want to be fired yet. The company's benefits and treatment were ranked first compared to other companies. How could he go to other companies to endure hardships?
"By the way, I have to go out, please notify the driver to pick me up."
"Okay, boss, I'll make arrangements right away."
Yang Shuo left the office and closed the door gently.
……………
In the box.
"Qi Yan, you are here."
Ye Yan was dressed in professional attire and greeted Qi Yan with a gentle expression.
"Yes, sister-in-law."
Qi Xu poured a cup of tea and handed it to Qi Yan with a teasing look in his eyes: "It's not easy to ask a busy person like you to come out. Did the signing go smoothly?"
Qi Yan took the tea cup and took a sip: "Well, it has been pushed down."
"Haha, congratulations." Qi Xu looked proud, truly worthy of being his younger brother.
"By the way, Qi Yan, you came here on a business trip not long after you got married and didn't even accompany your siblings on their honeymoon. Have you explained this to your siblings clearly?"
Qi Xu thought that Qi Yan had just gotten married, and the two of them should be inseparable. If the younger brother and sister misunderstood, it would affect the couple's relationship. Qi Xu glanced at his wife, thinking of the torture he had suffered before, and looked at Qi Xu. There was unbearability in Yan's eyes, as long as he had experienced this before.
Ye Yan rolled her eyes at him and was too lazy to pay attention to him. Can he be the same as Qi Yan? He was not on a business trip at the time. He directly refused to go on the honeymoon. Although he was worried that she was pregnant and unwell, he was not being tactful. He advised her, but refused directly. Huh, he just didn't care about her and didn't cherish her. She was still pregnant with his child. Why did he blame her for making trouble and not tossing him?
Qi Yan took off his coat, leaned lazily on the sofa, recalled the scene when he left the villa, and said without any hesitation.
"Well, I explained it. Yun Shao expressed his understanding of my business trip."
"My younger siblings have pretty good personalities. She and Tiantian get along very well. Tiantian likes her very much. A few days ago, my younger siblings took Tiantian out to play. It was rare to see Tiantian post on WeChat. Tiantian has grown so big in the blink of an eye. "I remember my childhood..." Qi Xu started talking endlessly about his daughter.
Qi Yan was a little surprised when he heard that Yun Shao had frequently appeared at various banquets since his marriage. He had a lot of fun and earned a lot of limelight. He didn't expect that he would spend time with Tian Tian. This was revealed beyond his expectation.
Ye Yan saw Qi Yan's doubts and knew that he was busy with work and did not pay attention to Yun Shao's updates. She took out her phone, opened Moments, and handed it to Qi Yan.
"Nuo, Yun Shao has already posted it on WeChat Moments, but as a husband, you don't even know about it?"
We've only been married for a long time, and we're so careless. Women care about these details very much.
Qi Yan looked at the photo and raised his eyebrows. In the photo, Yun Shao has an elegant temperament. His starry eyes are like water with a light smile. The past kitsch is gone between his eyebrows. He is wearing light makeup and has a different look under his charming facial features. She is pure and innocent, and the tear mole at the corner of her eye has an innocent charm, which makes people unable to take their eyes away for a while. It has to be said that regardless of her inner nature, her impeccable appearance is fascinating.
Qi Yan was a little surprised. Yun Shao had changed so much after not seeing her for a long time. He was a little curious about the reason for her sudden change or whether it was another method of hers.
Ye Yan couldn't see Qi Yan's emotional changes. She took out the gifts she had prepared and said: "Qi Yan, these are the gifts I bought for Yun Shao. Please help me pass them to her. Thank you for helping me take care of Tiantian."
Qi Yan raised his eyes and looked at her and Qi Xu: "After you finish handling the work here, go back and spend more time with Tiantian. Children's growth cannot be separated from their parents. Yun Shao can never really replace you."
Ye Yan nodded: "I will go back to stay with Tiantian after I finish handling the matters abroad."
Qi Yan didn't say much.
Qi Xu looked at his wife with a confused look on his face: "Then I'll leave this place to the manager, and then I'll go back with you..."
"No, the foreign company has just got on the right track. Is it possible for you to be a hands-off shopkeeper? I'll go back first, and you can wait until the company is stable before going back."
Ye Yan knew how much effort her husband had put into this, so she couldn't just leave.
After lunch, Qi Yan talked with them for a while and left the box.
The driver opened the door for him, Qi Yan sat in, the door closed, Qi Yan pressed the button, and the partition rose to separate the back seat from the driver's seat.
Qi Yan sat in the back seat, took out his mobile phone, and opened Yun Shao's circle of friends. The bright light of the mobile phone made his facial features more three-dimensional. He stared at the photo, with a hint of interest in his dark eyes.
