“What’s wrong?” Jun Shiling stood at the door. Xiao Bao had not showered and he was not ready to enter the house.
“There’s something I don’t understand. Tell me about it.”
Xia Wanyuan had held a high position in her previous life. Now that she was in the modern world, from the original owner’s memory, she only knew that Jun Shiling was rich, so she did not have any fear of him.
Hence, she did not know that even in the entire world, there were very few people who could be personally guided by Jun Shiling.
“Which part?” Jun Shiling walked in and sat beside Xia Wanyuan.
A familiar masculine fragrance wafted over. Xia Wanyuan felt a little uncomfortable, as if she had been wrapped up in Jun Shiling’s territory.
“Here, I don’t understand what this picture means.” Xia Wanyuan pointed at the magazine.
“You have to look at the coordinates first.” Jun Shiling’s deep voice sounded as he patiently explained to Xia Wanyuan.
Jun Shiling had rich business combat experience. He was not limited to the photos in the magazine. Instead, he went into details and summarized the proposals he had worked on and the data he knew to explain them to Xia Wanyuan in detail.
Even an old antique like Xia Wanyuan, who did not know much about finance, was enlightened by Jun Shiling’s explanation.
Jun Shiling spoke seriously. As Xia Wanyuan listened, she tilted her head and glanced at Jun Shiling. He was wearing a white shirt with the top button buttoned, making him look extremely abstinent.
His resolute facial features were illuminated by the light, blurring his cold silhouette.
Xia Wanyuan felt that Jun Shiling, who was seriously explaining his professional knowledge, was indeed quite charming.
Just like what she had seen in those idol dramas a while ago, men who worked hard were the most attractive.
Sensing Xia Wanyuan’s sizing him up, Jun Shiling stopped his explanation and met a pair of exquisite and clear eyes. “What’s wrong?”
“Do you have a lot of women wooing you?”
asked Xia Wanyuan curiously. In those idol dramas, there were usually many people who chased after the male lead. People who liked Jun Shiling could probably line up all over Beijing.
Now, she felt that it was a good thing that Jun Shiling did not allow outsiders to know about their relationship. In the future, after the divorce, she could leave quietly so as not to cause trouble everywhere.
“Why do you ask?”
Jun Shiling had never imagined that Xia Wanyuan would ask such a question after sizing him up for a long time.
“Because you’re quite charming,” Xia Wanyuan said honestly.
When Jun Shiling heard this, it was as if a pebble had been thrown into his heart, causing layers of ripples and waves to surge in his heart.
Jun Shiling had heard countless praises and received countless rewards since he was young, but none of them had stirred him.
But this time, just Xia Wanyuan’s words made him feel an uncontrollable joy, even helplessness.
Jun Shiling clenched his fists and glanced at Xia Wanyuan, deliberately maintaining his composure and coldness.
“Flattery.”
Jun Shiling threw that sentence behind and stood up to leave.
…….
Xia Wanyuan was a little confused. Weren’t modern people quite direct in expressing themselves? Besides, I seemed to have praised Jun Shiling. How did it become flattery?
The thoughts of rich people were indeed different from ordinary people.
Jun Shiling left the bedroom quickly, but when he sat on the chair in the study, he felt that he had overreacted.
His mind was clearly filled with the content of the proposal before he went upstairs, but now, his mind was occupied by the sentence “You’re very charming” and that pair of clear eyes.
Suddenly remembering that he still had a meeting, Jun Shiling dismissed all his thoughts and sat at the study table. He switched on his computer. The executives of the Jun Corporation from all over the world were already waiting in the meeting room online.
Jun Shiling glanced at the time. He was ten minutes late.
“Alright, let the meeting begin.”
After Jun Shiling spoke, everyone began to report on their work.
As for being late? How could the boss being late be considered late?
The meeting had long ended and work had been settled, but Jun Shiling felt a little uncomfortable and insisted on staying in the study until Xiao Bao came to find him.
“Daddy, why aren’t you sleeping yet?”
Xiao Bao was hugging a dinosaur plushie and wearing a one-piece dinosaur pajamas. His long tail was dragging on the ground as he yawned and looked at Jun Shiling at the door.
“Let’s go.”
Jun Shiling went forward and pulled Xiao Bao into the bedroom.
Xia Wanyuan had already laid down, and her gaze was extremely natural. However, Jun Shiling felt a little displeased when he saw how honest she was.
When he heard that he was going to visit his great-grandfather today, Xiao Bao woke up very early and even wore his favorite Pikachu suit.
Xia Wanyuan was wearing a light-colored knitted dress, and the pearls around her ears added a hint of gentleness.
“Mommy, you’re the most beautiful person in the world.” The kindergarten teacher had said that mothers were noble and had to praise their mothers often. Xiao Bao had perfectly carried out the kindergarten teacher’s teachings.
“You’re the cutest baby too.” Xia Wanyuan was tickled by Xiao Bao’s praise and patted his head.
When they arrived at the alley where Old Master Lin lived, it was not as quiet as the last time they were here.
The car drove into the alley and was surrounded by rows of guards.
There were also a few ordinary-looking cars parked at the entrance of the courtyard house. However, their car plate numbers were either Beijing A or Beijing A.G.
