In this situation, as long as he could take the initiative to attack, the two of them would not be far from officially becoming boyfriend and girlfriend.
“Of course. Actually, I’ve been waiting for your call just now. I’ve long been prepared to attend the gala with you. 1 just wanted to see if you had the courage to call me.”
As soon as these words were spoken, Zhou Xuan, who was alone in the office, smiled as happy as a child.
If his subordinates saw this, they would definitely think that President Zhou was crazy. After all, he had always been expressionless in the company. Such a smile would definitely scare many people.
“That’s great.” Zhou Xuan did not hesitate and immediately replied, “I’ve already chosen the gown for you tomorrow night. I’ll get He Sheng to send it to you later. I’ve carefully chosen it for a long time. It will definitely suit your taste.”
“I’ve already agreed to President Zhou’s request so readily. Do I still need Assistant He to send the gown over? Or is President Zhou afraid of making an extra trip?” Shan Yue was half-joking, her words filled with teasing. “As expected, President Zhou is a busy person. You have to ask your assistant to arrange these things. This way, you won’t waste your time.”
Such obvious words could be heard by anyone, let alone Zhou Xuan.
Although he did not know why Shan Yue asked this question, Zhou Xuan understood one thing. She wanted to meet. This was something he had never expected. After all, every time he asked Shan Yue out, he had to make preparations in advance and pick when Shan Yue was free.
“No problem, of course!” Zhou Xuan’s slightly excited lips even began to tremble slightly. Actually, he couldn’t wait to look for Shan Yue every day. “I was afraid that it would be inconvenient for you if I went over, so I asked He Sheng to send the gown over. If it’s convenient for you, I’ll definitely go over myself.”
“Why would it be inconvenient for me? There have been a lot of projects recently, and I’ve been staying in the company all day to deal with business. I usually won’t go anywhere if there’s nothing else.”
A faint smile appeared on Shan Yue’s cold face. Her sweet voice came through the cell phone. “President Zhou, if you want to look for me in the future, just come over. Or give me a call in advance. It’s still convenient most of the time.”
“You should have said so earlier. Otherwise, every time 1 wanted to look for you, I would have asked He Sheng to call your assistant and confirm that you were fine today before arranging the next move.” As Zhou Xuan spoke, he took out a key that had been placed in the drawer for a long time and came to the corner of the office. “Wait for me. I’ll bring the gown over now.”
“Okay, I’ll wait for you.” With that, they hung up.
Right on the heels of that, all of Zhou Xuan’s attention shifted from the phone to the safe in front of him.
No one in this world knew what special meaning this safe had for Zhou Xuan. He had kept it here for so many years and no one had ever touched it, including his assistant, He Sheng.
Zhou Xuan wanted to be able to see and remind himself at all times. At the same time, it was also the source of motivation for him to keep moving forward.
Because in the safe was his mother’s favorite gown when she was alive. Ever since his mother passed away when he was young, Zhou Xuan had bought the only one in the city. Moreover, there was no other one who could make this style.
The reason why it had been kept for so long was that Zhou Xuan wanted to wait until he found someone he could spend the rest of his life with before opening this box that had been sealed for a long time. This way, his mother could be very gratified in heaven and watch him walk step by step towards happiness.
With a click, the safe’s lock sprang open, revealing a brand-new white gown.
The girl’s pure white off-shoulder dress was enough to make her beautiful collarbones faintly visible. The material of the dress was covered by a thin veil, leaving people with a sense of mystery. It was slightly reflective, like the wings of an angel, but it did not seem exposed at all..
