Chapter 798: The Taste of Love
In the conference room of Shengshi Group, the morning meeting had started.
Today’s meeting was mainly to report the first quarter of the year’s work. Qiao Yu sat in his seat and looked at the data report on the projector in front of him. Hearing the report, his dark eyes were calm, but his eyes kept falling on the phone next to him.
The higher-ups from the various departments went up one by one. Under the pressure of being stared at by the big boss, they reported their work and did not even dare to look at the king-like man.
The entire conference room was filled with unspeakable pressure. Everyone knew that Boss was not in a good mood today. When he came in the morning, his face was dark.
Is this because he did not have a girlfriend for a long time and have nowhere to vent his frustrations so he got depressed?!
That shouldn’t be the case. Boss had money, talent, looks. He can get any kind of woman he wants. The only explanation was that he was too perfect and looked down on other women. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have no scandals at this age.
Of course, the Li Shanshan from before was not counted. One look and you could tell it was one-sided on her part. Boss looked down on her.
“Bzzzz…”
In the huge conference room, someone’s phone vibrated. Everyone looked over at the same time. Phones were supposed to be on silent during the meeting, didn’t they know?
But when they saw the source of the noise, everyone immediately looked away. Okay, it was Boss’s phone. Just pretend you didn’t hear it.
Qiao Yu saw the call and frowned. He hung up immediately. He darted a look at the person who was reporting and said calmly, “Continue.”
The report started again.
In the Qiao family, Xia Ning heard the sweet voice of the customer service on the phone and frowned. Is he not picking up her call?!
Xia Ning looked at her phone and was silent for a second before she called again.
In the conference room, just as a report was about to be praised by the Big Boss, the phone vibrated again.
“Bzzzz…”
Instantly, the entire conference room fell silent. Everyone turned to the source of the noise and looked at that handsome and cold face. Was Big Boss deliberately not putting his phone on silent mode?!
Because someone saw him staring at his phone from time to time.
But the call came and he did not pick up.
Qiao Yu hung up and put his phone on the table. He said again, “Continue!”
But a few seconds later, the phone rang again.
The person making the report stood there awkwardly. Is he going to continue with this?
Qiao Yu looked at his phone and was silent for a second. Finally, he picked up.
“Qiao Yu, I…”
“I’m in a meeting!” The cold voice interrupted her.
Xia Ning was about to explain when she choked back. She answered, “Oh, I’m sorry to disturb you.”
Qiao Yu heard her calm voice and knew what her expression was without thinking.
Yes, she was always so calm. Be it when she was happy or when she was unhappy, it was as if she did not have any feelings for him. Or maybe, it was only when she was with him.
Usually, when he did not call her, she would never think of calling him.
He did not know what was wrong with him today. He insisted on making things difficult for her a few times. But when he thought of all these, he felt very uncomfortable. What did she think of him as? Even a dog from a normal family would be teased a little. But her attitude was indifferent.
Both of them did not hang up and were in a deadlock.
The people in the conference room saw Boss’s sullen face as he held his phone and did not speak. They immediately realized that the person who called Boss was definitely not an ordinary person. Boss had received a similar call during a meeting before.
F*ck, spring was coming. Indeed, love was everywhere.
