the other side.
Tang Jifeng was in a meeting in the conference room - Ye Yan had just gotten married, and had taken Shu Nianyi on a honeymoon early this morning, and the trip would last nearly a month, so all the things were piled up with him.
While listening to the work reports of the directors of various departments, his eyes drifted to the mobile phone placed beside him. Even Mo Tian beside him noticed that Mr. Tang was obviously waiting for someone's call today and was absent-minded throughout the meeting.
When he saw it for the fifth time, his phone suddenly vibrated. The hand holding the pen tensed a little. He grabbed the phone and when he saw that the name displayed on it was not the two words in his mind, his face changed slightly. He didn't even answer the call and hung up without hesitation.
With this little episode, he became inexplicably irritated.
Could it be that she didn't care about such a bag and a phone at all? Or maybe she had completely forgotten his number.
Tang Jifeng threw down his pen, sat back in his leather chair in a bad mood, and adjusted his tie anxiously. The director who was explaining the PPT in front saw his face suddenly change, wondering if he had made a mistake, and cold sweat broke out on his forehead.
until…
The phone on the table vibrated again.
Tang Jifeng frowned and was about to hang up again when the words "Yezhai" flashed on the screen, which made him relax.
However, it was not connected immediately. Instead, it vibrated several times, as if it was not in a hurry.
Mo Tian glanced at him suspiciously for several times, completely confused. Mr. Tang had been waiting for a call all morning, and it was probably this call! But why didn't he answer it
Just as Mo Tian was thinking, Tang Jifeng finally grabbed the phone and stood up, "Take a few minutes break."
After that, without waiting for anyone else to say anything, he opened the door and strode out of the meeting room, heading towards the company's terrace.
After the phone rang for a full minute, he slowly answered the call. As you can imagine, the little girl was getting impatient.
"Hello."
"… It's me." Ye Lan was indeed getting impatient waiting, but when he heard his voice coming from the other end of the line, it was just a single syllable, and his heartbeat became a lot more chaotic. He was still not living up to expectations!
"Yeah. I know." Tang Jifeng's tone was indifferent, even unfamiliar, which made Ye Lan feel a little embarrassed.
"I didn't expect that you, who is so forgetful, still remember my number." When Ye Lan was about to ask about the bag and the cell phone, Tang Jifeng suddenly said this.
Ye Lan was stunned, and almost instinctively retorted: "I don't remember. Don't talk nonsense."
As if to make her words sound more convincing, she raised her chin and said, "I just asked my brother. My brother told me your number."
"Really? Then do you know where your brother is now?"
"At my grandma and grandpa's place." She replied without thinking. The housekeeper just said, didn't they go to pay their respects
Tang Jifeng glanced at his watch. "It's 10:15 now. Your brother just boarded the plane an hour and a half ago. Did he talk to you on the plane?"
“…” The lie was ruthlessly exposed, and Ye Lan felt extremely ashamed.
She bit her lip and decided not to continue talking about this topic. She just talked about the business, "Are all my things with you?"
"what?"
"My phone. And my bag."
"When was it released?" Tang Jifeng pretended to know nothing.
"I might have thrown it into your car last night when I was drunk."
"Really?" Tang Jifeng said lazily, "I was asked to drive the car to the company. If you have nothing to do today, come and get it yourself."
"I'm a little busy. Please ask Brother Mo Tian to bring it to me. I'll wait for him at home."
"Mo Tian is busier than you." Tang Jifeng added, "I'm in a meeting. I'm hanging up now."
Without caring what Ye Lan said, he just hung up the phone.
When Ye Lan heard the 'beep' sound, he bit his lip angrily, full of resentment.
This person! He is completely different from before! He is getting more and more annoying!
In the past, he would never take the initiative to hang up her phone, let alone refuse her such a small thing. Even if Mo Tian was really busy, there would always be someone who was not busy in the company. Moreover, according to his past behavior, even if everyone was busy, he would definitely return the things to her in person.
In short, the attitude would definitely not be as bad as it is now.
Ye Lan put the receiver down heavily and rolled over on the bed in anger, but he still couldn't calm down.
"Second Miss, do you want to come down for breakfast or have it delivered to your room?" The housekeeper's voice sounded outside. Ye Lan sat up from the bed, calmed down, and smoothed his messy hair, feeling somewhat annoyed that he was angry for no reason.
They are no longer the same as before. There is no reason for Tang Jifeng to spoil himself like before.
After all, I am not anyone to him.
"Second Miss?" The housekeeper didn't hear the voice and called again from outside.
"Just leave it downstairs, I'll be down soon." Ye Lan responded weakly, climbed down from the bed, and went to the bathroom to wash up. After washing his face, he opened the cupboard and took out all the clothes inside.
It's just the beginning of autumn, and it's still quite cold to wear a skirt with bare legs. But I can't care so much today.
She tried on clothes one by one - these clothes were all left over from a few years ago, fortunately they were all classic styles, and they were not outdated when worn now. Although she had grown a little taller and her breasts had developed a little in the past few years, she had maintained a good figure. The old clothes did not look small on her. Ye Lan looked at herself in the mirror wearing a lake blue dress, and then looked at the pile of clothes on the bed, and suddenly felt that her behavior was quite ridiculous.
Who are you trying to please by dressing so carefully
Although she is grown up now, she still has a youthful face. Compared with those seductive women that Tang Jifeng likes, she is completely different in style.
No matter how you dress up, it's useless.
Her mood suddenly became more gloomy. She hung the remaining clothes back in the closet. She had originally wanted to put on some makeup, but in the end, she gave up.
————
after an hour.
The secretary pushed open the door of the conference room and came in, whispering in his ear: "Mr. Tang, Miss Ye Lan is here."
Tang Jifeng's eyes deepened slightly, and he nodded: "Let her wait."
"Okay." The secretary went out.
As a result, after a while, the secretary pushed the door open again.
"Miss Ye said she has something urgent to do. She wants to borrow your car keys. I'll return them to you in a moment."
Tang Jifeng didn't say anything and just handed the car keys to the secretary.
Ye Lan was stunned when she took the car keys. Inexplicably, she felt a little regretful. If she really took the things, it seemed that there would be no reason to stay.
