Princess is Glamorous in Modern Day Novel - Chapter 1018
Chapter 1018: Jealousy Deep Love
When she returned to the hotel, it was already half-past eleven in the evening. Xia Wanyuan tidied up and took a shower. When she lay under the blanket, the hour hand was pointing to twelve.
There were two missed calls on her phone. They had called while she was showering.
It was five in the afternoon in China. Xia Wanyuan called Jun Shiling.
The phone rang three times before someone picked up.
“I just went to take a shower. Have you eaten?” Xia Wanyuan had always spoken with a smile in front of Jun Shiling, making one’s heart soften.
However, the other party spoke. It was a heroic female voice. “He went to take a shower. What’s the matter?”
Xia Wanyuan was stunned. “It’s nothing. I’ll call him later.”
“Sir has a very important meeting in ten minutes.” This was the first time Lin Wei had heard Xia Wanyuan’s voice. It was soft and delicate, similar to the kind of woman she had imagined. She frowned slightly. Jun Shiling was so busy that he did not have time to eat or sleep every day and still had to spend time coaxing this little woman. Lin Wei felt that this person was not sensible at all.
Xia Wanyuan could tell that this person was telling her not to disturb Jun Shiling’s meeting. “Got it,” Xia Wanyuan replied calmly and hung up.
After hanging up the phone, Xia Wanyuan felt a little depressed. “This person really attracts peach blossoms everywhere.”
…
China,
Not long after Lin Wei put down the phone, Jun Shiling came out of the lounge. “Did someone call me just now?”
Lin Wei’s gaze flickered. “Yes, she hung up after I told her about your meeting arrangements.”
Jun Shiling walked over and picked up the phone. As expected, it was Xia Wanyuan who called.
Lin Wei saw that he was about to call back. “Officer, the meeting is starting in a minute.”
In other words, you can’t call and waste time anymore.
Jun Shiling’s hand that was holding the phone paused as he looked at Lin Wei with a torch-like gaze. Lin Wei could not withstand the pressure for a moment. “I’m sorry, sir. I spoke too much.”
“You’re indeed being nosy.” Jun Shiling’s tone was cold. “Postpone the meeting for ten minutes.”
“Off-” Lin Wei wanted to say something, but when she met Jun Shiling’s cold gaze, she could only swallow her words. “Yes.”
After Lin Wei retreated, Jun Shiling called Xia Wanyuan.
The call was connected. Xia Wanyuan was already lying under the blanket, looking unhappy.
“I was taking a shower just now. You’re back?” When Jun Shiling saw Xia Wanyuan, a smile appeared on his cold face.
“I know.” Xia Wanyuan snorted softly. “Someone just told me.”
“What did you eat tonight? Why are you so sour?” Jun Shiling smiled helplessly. “That’s a subordinate. It’s completely a working relationship. Don’t you believe me?”
“Hmph.” It was one thing to believe, but it was another to feel uncomfortable. “Shouldn’t you be in a meeting at this time? Isn’t it a very important meeting?”
Seeing Xia Wanyuan’s jealous look, Jun Shiling did not say anything, but he was very pleased. “It’s delayed. Nothing is more important than you.”
“Tsk, flowery words.” The corners of Xia Wanyuan’s lips curled up.
“It’s not flowery words.” Jun Shiling’s expression turned serious. “It’s true.”
With Xia Wanyuan around, he could create a clear sky for her. Without Xia Wanyuan around, everything in the world had no meaning to him.
“Okay, okay, okay.” Xia Wanyuan naturally saw the seriousness in Jun Shiling’s expression and stopped throwing a tantrum. “I understand. I’ll go back tomorrow. Are you happy?”
For once, Jun Shiling did not look happy when he heard Xia Wanyuan’s words. He hesitated for a moment. “I won’t be back tomorrow.”
“What about the day after tomorrow?”
“I can’t come back.”
“Then when are you coming back?”
Jun Shiling hesitated for a moment. “In half a month.”
“…” Xia Wanyuan was really angry now. “Then CEO Jun, you’re amazing.”
“I’m sorry, there are too many things to do here. I’ll try to go back early.” Jun Shiling felt guilty. The matter in the southwest was much more complicated than he had imagined. It could not be resolved in a short time.
“I’m not talking to you anymore. I’m hanging up.” Xia Wanyuan was used to being pampered by Jun Shiling. She had been out for so many days and missed Jun Shiling very much. Who would have thought that Jun Shiling would actually tell her that he could only go back in half a month? Xia Wanyuan felt extremely wronged.
“Don’t.” Jun Shiling sighed. “I’m sorry, baby. I’ll try to go back early.”
“I’m hanging up. Go to your meeting.” Xia Wanyuan was unhappy. She hung up and threw her phone aside.
After looking forward to it for a few days, she was finally able to go home. In the end, Jun Shiling did not return. Xia Wanyuan was very disappointed.
After Xia Wanyuan hung up, there was a large group of people waiting in the meeting room. Jun Shiling sent Xia Wanyuan a WeChat message and turned off his phone to head to the meeting room.
Xia Wanyuan lay under the blanket for a while and calmed down. She felt that she shouldn’t have hung up on Jun Shiling just now.
She had been in charge for so many years in her previous life, so she naturally knew how difficult it was to reorganize her forces. It was definitely not something that could be resolved in a few days. In fact, it was extraordinarily fast to resolve everything in half a month.
Xia Wanyuan reached for her phone. It was a WeChat message from Jun Shiling.
Jun Shiling: I’m sorry, give me ten days.
Xia Wanyuan felt even more guilty. What could he do in ten days? It would pass in the blink of an eye, yet Jun Shiling had to use these ten days to complete the reorganization of the southwest forces. Such a difficult thing might not even be completed by Xia Wanyuan herself.
“Sigh.” Xia Wanyuan sighed. “Stupid, don’t you know that a woman’s temper comes and goes?”
However, once Jun Shiling had a meeting, Xia Wanyuan had no way of contacting him again. She could only cover herself with the blanket and prepare to sleep. She would look for Jun Shiling when she woke up tomorrow.
The morning sun woke up Laos. It was midnight in China.
Xia Wanyuan did not sleep well in the first half of the night and only fell asleep in the second half. Only when Xia Yu knocked on the door did Xia Wanyuan wake up in a daze.
“Sister, it’s time! Why aren’t you up yet!”
“I’m up.” Xia Wanyuan hurriedly got up and ignored the missed call on her phone.
In the base, Jun Shiling called three times but no one picked up. His expression darkened.
“Officer, go and rest. There are still many things to do tomorrow.” Lin Wei walked over with a glass of warm water.
Jun Shiling glanced at his phone. The call was still unanswered. He looked at Lin Wei. “Change my schedule. Change the rest time to three hours. Move all the other plans forward.”
Lin Wei was shocked. “But you won’t be able to take it.”
“Don’t worry about it. Change it.” Jun Shiling did not say it twice. No matter how worried Lin Wei was, she could only do as Jun Shiling said.
Xia Wanyuan only saw Jun Shiling’s call after getting on the plane.
“Sister, will Brother-in-law pick us up?” Seeing Xia Wanyuan’s unhappy expression, Xia Yu leaned over.
“No, he won’t be returning to Beijing for the time being.” Xia Wanyuan looked at her phone thoughtfully. “Do you know where Jun Shiling works?”
Xia Yu was stunned for a moment, then pursed his lips. “Sister, according to the rules, I can’t say this.”
Xia Wanyuan looked over. “You can’t tell me either?”
Xia Yu hesitated for a moment. With how much Jun Shiling doted on my sister, if I revealed the information, Jun Shiling would not blame me, right?
Hence, Xia Yu hardened his heart and whispered an address into Xia Wanyuan’s ear. “Sister, don’t tell me you want to look for Brother-in-law?”
Xia Wanyuan raised an eyebrow. “Is there a problem?”
Xia Yu shook his head like a rattle. “No, no. Brother-in-law must be very happy to see you. When are we going?”
“You’re not going. Stay in the manor with Xiao Bao.”
“…” Xia Yu looked like he was about to cry. “Alright.”
Boohoo, I had been abandoned by his sister.
More than ten hours later, the plane landed at the Beijing airport. However, only Xia Yu left the airport. Soon, the plane flew from Beijing to a base hidden in the mountains in the southwest.
It was already night when the plane arrived at the southwest base. Looking down from the plane, there were no more prosperous lights. There was only a darkness that could swallow people.
