Argh ! Argh!
Li An’an roared silently!
Why did he make everything his business!
Chu Yichen’s tone turned cold when he heard no reply after a while. “Why, don’t you welcome me? Or are you lying to me?”
As soon as Chu Yichen finished speaking, the conversation between the two became exceptionally heavy.
Li An’an felt beads of sweat sliding down her pores. “No! Well, sob sob, sob sob!” She quickly started sniffling. “You’re too late! My relative, she… she’s gone! She’s been gone for 30 minutes. If she had known that someone was thinking about her, she would have passed away more peacefully. Thank you, CEO Chu. Although I haven’t worked for you for very long, you’re really a good person. You even wanted to visit my relative. However, it’s just her bad luck not to have experienced CEO Chu’s concern, but I’m so touched. I’m really touched!”
In the car, Chu Yichen massaged his temple. Anyone who went to see a person in high spirits would feel upset when they were told that the person had passed away!
“In that case, my condolences!” He had never thought that Li An’an would lie to him where something like this was concerned!
“Yes, thank you. I will. I will live on with her wonderful hopes in my heart.” Li An’an choked on her words.
Chu Yichen suddenly asked. “How is this relative related to you?”
“My paternal grandmother!”
There was silence on the other end.
“Aren’t you an orphan?” Chu Yichen’s voice was full of suspicion.
Li An’an was stunned for a moment. “That’s right! My parents have passed away, and I only have an old grandmother! But she couldn’t raise me! She sent me to an orphanage, but I can’t just ignore her now.”
Chu Yichen thought that her explanation was reasonable and pondered for a while.
“Since it’s an elder, inform me on the day of the funeral. I should send her off!”
Normally, he wouldn’t participate in such matters. However, he felt that Li An’an’s grandmother was worthy of him sending her off.
Li An’an was stunned. Would it be alright for her to assign another identity to the dead person? She was an orphan anyway. It didn’t matter who it was! They were all gone, so she was alone!
“Um, no need. Thank you, CEO Chu, the funeral is in our old hometown. It’s very far and takes a day to go back and forth. It’s inconvenient. Thank you for your kindness! I thank you on behalf of my grandmother.” Li An’an just wanted to end the call as soon as possible. If he continued to probe, she’d be exposed.
Chu Yichen did not insist on going. He had an important project to discuss with a foreign company and he could not be absent. The project team had worked hard for three months and nothing must go wrong!
“Well then, if you have any difficulties, look for Li Cheng! He’ll solve it for you!”
“Thank you, CEO Chu. You’re really a good person!”
Chu Yichen heard her praise and laughed.
“Whether I’m a good person or not, it’s not too late to decide later! Haven’t you heard of the saying that you’ll owe a person once you’ve accepted his help?” Li An’an immediately sobered up.
Therefore, she should not take anything from Chu Yichen, not even a single cent. This man was a pervert. If you took a cent from him, he’d extract a dollar
from you.
Although he had money, taking it from him was not a good thing!
Li Cheng heard Chu Yichen’s words clearly from the front passenger seat. He was confused.
What kind of person was Li An’an to CEO Chu? She was a servant, a professional chef, and a woman! He might be biased towards the latter.
No matter what, a servant or a chef would not move CEO Chu to offer help with a relative’s funeral.
Chu Yichen asked the driver to turn around and return to the office. Eventually, another car caught up with them and followed them to the company.
“Yichen, I’m back from Korea. Did you miss me?” Gu Na sashayed over happily.
She was wearing a rhinestone earring and a black gown, charming as could be. Her eyes flickered. She said that she was traveling for work, but in fact she had gone to get her breasts enlarged.
Even before she recuperated, she was in a hurry to see Chu Yichen to avenge herself. From the time she was young, she had sworn that she would conquer Chu Yichen.. Such a perfect man could only belong to her! As for Li An’an, she had a way to deal with her!
