Reborn Aristocrat: Return of the Vicious Heiress Novel - Chapter 1845
Chapter 1845: What Do You Want to Eat Tonight?
She left Lanxin Corporation at about 4:30 pm, and given that there was nothing much that she had to immediately attend to at the Wen Corporation, Wen Xinya did not head over.
Wen Xinya gave Si Yiyan a call, and it was picked up after just a moment of ringing.
“Xinya!” Si Yiyan’s clear and crisp voice flowed like the river into her ears, warming her heart and making her feel better.
Wen Xinya’s expression turned gentle. “I’m not disturbing you at work, am I!”
“You’re not!”
When the phone rang, Si Yiyan’s cold gaze swept across everyone in the conference room, and then he walked out with his phone. Everyone in the room turned to look at each other.
Everyone knew that the one who called the boss was their Sis-in-law.
However, boss, you cannot speak without a conscience.
They had been extremely busy the past two days because their boss wanted to spend more time with his future wife and compressed one week’s worth of work into just two days. The entire Lucifer and Xiasi Group had been pushed to their limits and had to carry out high-intensity work every day. Everybody was under high pressure, as although they were talents in their own right, they could not match up to their boss’s insanely high intellect and strong mind and could not keep up with his work demands and intensity, making it really tough on them.
Today’s conference was of utmost importance, and each of them had an average of less than four hours of sleep per day to prepare the materials for this meeting. All of them had dark eye circles and went through much hardship in order to rush out the necessary materials.
In the end, such an important conference was put on hold just so he could answer Sis-in-law’s call.
Wen Xinya naturally did not know the situation at Jiayuan and held her phone tightly. “Do you want to come back for dinner tonight?”
Si Yiyan had not come back for dinner the past three days, and she heard from Gu Yuehan that they had been especially busy the past two days.
Si Yiyan stood by the window and looked at the flow of traffic outside. “Will you be cooking?”
He questioned her instead of answering.
From his peripheral vision, he could see a pile of documents on his table that was supposed to be completed today.
Wen Xinya said yes, as she planned to personally cook the dishes that he liked for him as he had been particularly busy recently.
Si Yiyan frowned, but his eyes sparkled. “I will be back home by 8 pm.”
He chose to ignore the pile of work on his table.
Everyone in the conference room at that moment thought that they would be able to get a good night’s sleep that night after the conference ended. They were anxious, and if they knew that what was upcoming was even more intense work, some might even feel like dying.
Wen Xinya laughed, and her face turned gentle. “What do you want to eat for dinner tonight?”
She looked up at the grocery store in front of her, and there were many people walking about as it was going to be dinnertime soon. However, Wen Xinya simply looked out of the window, feeling at peace as everybody seemed to be just going about their life.
Today, she planned to personally pick the ingredients from the grocery store.
Only if she picked it out herself and found the ingredients that she was happiest with could she cook the tastiest food.
She wanted to give Si Yiyan the best.
“Yes, Chinese medicinal soup with rice, steamed sea bass, sweet and sour pork ribs, fried meat with fungus, and then red wine and beef soup…” Si Yiyan named an entire chain of dishes, reaching more than ten kinds.
Wen Xinya felt a little annoyed and wanted to cut him off, but she resisted.
After Si Yiyan finished listing all of it, he added, “Just these few for now!”
Wen Xinya thought about it. “Today I shall make you Chinese medicinal soup with rice, sweet and sour pork ribs, and sea bass with soup, as well as a vegetable dish. That’s all for today. I will cook you the rest tomorrow.”
He had asked for so much that even if she could cook all of it, the two of them would not be able to finish it.
Si Yiyan’s eyes sparkled. “Okay, anything goes!”
For a man to have a woman, he must first conquer her body.
For a woman to have a man, she must first conquer his stomach.
Wen Xinya had a few tricks up her sleeves in that area as she was good at cooking. Anything medicinal was her expertise, and even with the same ingredients and recipe, not everybody could produce something as tasty as she could.
With her good cooking, Si Yiyan’s stomach was completely conquered.
She had been busy recently and had not cooked personally for quite some time. Everything that Si Yiyan had been eating recently were cooked by five-star chefs, but nothing tasted too good to him.
Wen Xinya softly said, “I’ll hang up first!”
Si Yiyan remained silent.
Wen Xinya did not hear a reply and so did not hang up immediately. “What else do you want?”
Si Yiyan softly called her, “Xinya!”
“Huh?”
Si Yiyan looked at his microphone and softly blew a kiss.
The low echo that suddenly sounded beside her ear made Wen Xinya’s heart to jump a little and her cheeks to redden. “I’ll hang up first. Work hard, I’ll wait for you to be back…”
Afterwards, she hurriedly hung up the phone.
However, before she hung up, Si Yiyan still managed to hear her gentle, tender kiss.
The corner of his lips turned up into a smile.
Gu Yuehan hesitated walking over to him.
He heaved a sigh of relief. “The video conference with Lucifer is scheduled to start at 5 pm, which is fifteen minutes from now. The conference going on now cannot be delayed.”
This conference was relatively important, to finish it in fifteen minutes would be really tight.
To continue delaying it like that, they would probably have to delay Lucifer’s conference.
Therefore, he could not help but daringly come and remind his boss who was simply saying sweet nothings to his future wife.
Si Yiyan said, “Today’s conference materials are not perfect enough, so the conference will be temporarily canceled. Get them to redo all of the materials, and the conference will be pushed back to 8 am tomorrow.”
After that, Si Yiyan sat back at his office table.
Gu Yuehan’s cool face cracked. The materials had undergone repeated changes and refinements, but Ninth Si had not shown any dissatisfaction with the materials of the conference since it started over ten minutes ago.
Yet, now…
Gu Yuehan calmly returned to the conference room after a moment and looked at the expectant faces in front of him. “Ninth Si expressed dissatisfaction with the materials you prepared. The conference will be changed to 8 am tomorrow!”
Everyone was shocked upon hearing this!
Why was he dissatisfied?
Did they have to burn the midnight oil to refine it yet again?
He never mentioned his dissatisfaction!
Which about it was bad exactly?
Of course, no one other than Gu Yuehan would ever imagine that their smart and talented boss was actually just so blinded by love.
