Chapter 257: Catching up
Chapter 257: Catching up
Luo Yao was bored and wanted to go downstairs for a walk to get some fresh air, and just walked out the door.
I just happened to hear them gossiping, and the topic was about Xu Nuo and Qiqi.
I still have to remind Xu Nuo about this matter. Qiqi is very insecure. If she hears these gossips, she might think too much.
Pulling her thoughts back, she carefully crossed the street and came to a coffee shop across the street.
She walked into the store and was immediately surrounded by a rich coffee aroma. She ordered a glass of milk and a dessert.
The office is too stuffy, I might as well come here to kill time.
I took care of some work while sitting down by the window.
The scenery outside is in full view. During the lunch break, there are many people outside, not just Huo’s employees.
After a while, the waiter came over with milk and said with a smile, "Miss, your milk and strawberry cake."
"Thank you."
"Please enjoy your meal. Call me if you need anything."
Luo Yao nodded slightly, then picked up the milk and took a sip.
I opened the tablet and saw the photos, videos, bills and other information about the new company's construction progress sent by Han Xingyu.
Seeing that the new company has been built for more than half, Luo Yao is full of anticipation.
She believes this is a new starting point, a new beginning.
The phone suddenly rang, she quickly picked it up and opened her red lips: "Hello~"
"Sister, I'm in Beihuai." A crisp voice came from the other end of the phone.
"Are you planning to attack?" Luo Yao joked with a smile, his tone full of joy.
"Hehe, I just came over for a stroll."
"Come to me?"
"Sister, guess where I am now?"
As soon as these words came out, Luo Yao raised her eyes and looked outside. She saw a person hiding not far away and said lightly, "Come in."
"...Uh, that's not fun at all." Having been exposed, the girl's voice was a little disappointed.
"What can you hide with your little thoughts? You won't get tanned enough from standing outside in the sun." Luo Yao said helplessly.
"Oh..." The girl sighed softly.
Two minutes later, a petite girl, wearing a purple lace top and denim shorts, trotted in with a schoolbag on her back.
Her bright eyes sparkled with excitement and there were a few beads of sweat on her forehead.
"Sister." The girl called sweetly.
"What would you like to drink? Go order it yourself."
"I don't want to drink anymore." She shook her head vigorously, and her ponytail swayed with it.
"Did Xiaomo know that you ran over here?" Luo Yao raised her eyebrows with a questioning look in her eyes.
"Sister Mo must know, sister, I have asked for a week's leave." The girl's face was filled with a bright smile.
"Okay, where are you staying tonight?"
Jiaxin smiled gently, sat next to Luo Yao, and held her arms affectionately.
She blinked her eyes playfully and said affectionately, "Sister, I need your help."
Luo Yao turned to look at her. With just one glance, she immediately guessed what she was thinking. She frowned slightly and said with difficulty, "This... is a bit bad."
"Sister, help me."
Jiaxin shook Luo Yao's arm with both hands, her eyes full of expectation and pleading.
"Okay, I'll try it?" Luo Yao hesitated for a moment, but finally agreed out of reluctance.
"Yeah." Jiaxin nodded happily.
Luo Yao reluctantly picked up the phone beside her and dialed Ji Sirui's number with her fingers skillfully.
It took a long time before the call was connected.
A deep and attractive voice came from the phone, "Boss."
"Sister~" Jiaxin called in a very small voice, gesturing anxiously, signaling Luoyao to speak out.
Luo Yao turned on the speaker and placed the phone steadily on the table.
"Busy?" Luo Yao asked casually.
"Yeah, I just finished a meeting." There was a hint of fatigue in Ji Sirui's voice.
“Relax during mealtimes and don’t take advantage of your employees’ breaks.”
"Yes, I see."
"Xinxin is here. You have an extra room. Let her stay there for a few days." Luo Yao said straight to the point.
"Why is she here!" Ji Sirui's voice was full of surprise.
"I'm not sure. Why don't you ask yourself tonight?"
The other end was silent for a long time before slowly saying, "The password has not changed."
"Okay, then I'll tell her, go eat now."
"Ah."
After hanging up the phone, the little girl was very excited and shook Luo Yao vigorously.
"Stop!" Luo Yao quickly reached out and supported her belly, fearing that she would scare the baby in her belly.
"...Uh, sister, I forgot." Jiaxin finally reacted. She stared at Luo Yao's belly with a nervous look on her face and asked anxiously, "Is the baby okay?"
"What do you think?" Luo Yao glared at her unhappily. She was still so worrying.
"I'm sorry, baby. When you come out, auntie will buy you a beautiful dress. Please forgive me." Jiaxin carefully stretched out her hand and gently stroked Luo Yao's belly, her tone full of guilt and flattery.
"How come even you like girls?"
"Sister, you are so beautiful, the baby will definitely inherit your beauty." Jiaxin looked confident, with anticipation gleaming in her eyes.
"..."
Luo Yao remained silent and just shook her head helplessly.
"But sister, why did you come here by yourself?" Jiaxin tilted her head and asked curiously.
"It's quiet here, don't you want to eat something?" Luo Yao picked up the spoon and pointed at the cake on the table.
"I don't want to eat it. It's too greasy." Jiaxin looked disgusted.
"alright."
Luo Yao no longer insisted and scooped a large spoonful of cake into her mouth. After chewing it carefully, she nodded with satisfaction.
She loves this and eats a cake every week, as if it is an indispensable sweet enjoyment for her after pregnancy.
……
Luo Yao gently put the last piece of pastry into her mouth, then picked up a tissue and carefully wiped the residue from the corners of her mouth.
"Let's go." Her voice broke the brief silence.
"Where are we going?" Jiaxin asked with a puzzled look on her face.
"Go find the person you think about day and night." Luo Yao had a meaningful smile on her face.
"Sister~" Jiaxin lowered her head shyly and called out coquettishly.
"You've come all the way here on your own, and you don't want me to tease you a little bit?"
"I...no way." Jiaxin's voice was as thin as a mosquito, and she argued with a hint of shyness.
"You haven't driven for a long time." Luo Yao said casually.
"Sister, how did you know!"
Jiaxin opened her eyes wide, her face full of surprise, and thought to herself, could she guess this?
"Okay, I can't count on you." Luo Yao shook her head helplessly.
Jiaxin lowered her head slightly and thought to herself: I don’t have the time to practice driving. I’ll just leave it all to the coach.
The two slowly walked out of the coffee shop and stood side by side on the roadside.
After a while, a Maybach drove over silently and stopped steadily beside them.
Luo Yao opened the car door first and got in, followed closely by Jiaxin.
"Young Madam." The driver said respectfully.
"Uncle Wang, Yirui Group."
"Okay, young madam." Uncle Wang responded.
As the words fell, the car drove off the road smoothly and steadily.
The afternoon sun, like a golden veil, slowly and peacefully falls on the earth. Everything around seems to be frozen in a beautiful painting, quiet and beautiful.
