Chapter 44 Wedding Anniversary?
When he got the result he wanted, Yao Zhenshu raised his hand and the crowd immediately fell silent.C0ntent © 2024 (N/ô)velDrama.Org.
“Anyway, for now, we still need his relationship with Song Zhenhai, so we can’t kick him out either. So, for the time being, we’re taking back Tulip International. Do you guys have anything else to say?”
Yao Jianguo and Liu Yuxiang looked at each other and saw helplessness in each other’s eyes.
It seemed that this was all that could be done now, but Liu Yunxiang still felt resentful.
“Alright, since you put it that way.” Yao Jianguo hesitated for a moment and sighed.
Yao Cen was completely unaware of the decision and went to work as usual.
Originally, Tulip International was a wholesale and retail clothing company. Since she took over the company, she has put a lot of effort into its transform. She set up a design department to launch a distinctive fashion line.
For now, the new department was just getting into shape, and she was expecting a significant breakthrough in the near future.
But she didn’t realize that just then, her relatives were trying to take away her company.
As for the jobless Xiao Shun, he got off the bus halfway.
He had already planned to go see how Song Linger was doing, but to his surprise, she had gone to school.
In fact, Song Linger did go to school, just not everyday.
And she kept a low profile, too. She would never drive her million-worth sports car into the school. She would park it on an isolated street a few hundred meters away from the school. No one would know she was from that Song family.
Xiao Shun then walked aimlessly down the street. When he passed a flower shop, he walked in on a whim and bought a bouquet of lilies.
He had been married for three years, but he hadn’t even given Yao Cen a single rose.
Today would be their valentine’s day then.
Xiao Shun laughed.
He took a cab straight to Rise Tower.
“Are you from that flower shop across the street? Is it for that President Yao on the sixteenth floor? Do you ever deliver flowers elsewhere?”
As Xiao Shun walked into Rise Tower, three gorgeous young girls walked past him, and one of them with dark purple curls took him for a delivery boy.
“That’s her husband.” A beautiful woman in a black suit beside her warned.
“Really? I heard her husband is a loser dependent totally on her. Turns out it’s all real. I thought it was a rumor. After all, she turned down all those dudes. But now that seems to be true. What a shame, that pretty face.”
“Look at him. That bunch of flowers looks just hilarious with those rags he’s wearing.” That girl with purple hair giggled.
“…”
Xiao Shun laughed bitterly in secret.
Poor people really didn’t even qualify for romance, it seemed.
Tulip International was on the 16th floor.
The employees of the company knew Xiao Shun, so he got to the office with all green lights.
Yao Cen was slightly flabbergasted when she saw him walk into the office with a large bouquet of flowers. She said with a cold face, “Why are you here? I’ve told you not to come to the company.”
Xiao Shun smiled and walked over, “Today is our third wedding anniversary. I haven’t given you any gifts in these three years, so I bought you this bouquet of flowers.”
Yao Cen froze again.
Wedding anniversary? What a familiar and unfamiliar word.
When she had gotten married she was only following her grandfather’s orders, and the marriage had been a joke, so naturally, she wouldn’t take such a day seriously.
Yet, for reasons she couldn’t even understand herself, she also felt a little moved.
With her usual bossy tone, she said with a cold face.
“Next time, if you’re not in a hurry, don’t come to the office without my permission.”
Xiao Shun nodded and didn’t say anything.
Her heart went soft, so did her tone, “Okay, do you have anything else?”
“No more, I’ll be right back.”
Xiao Shun had come with so much excitement but lost all that excitement at once.
At that, he turned back toward the outside, but soon he heard Yao Cen behind him call out, “Wait.”
Xiao Shun stopped and looked back at her.
“I remember our wedding was supposed to be after Christmas, but it’s only September.” Yao Cen wondered.
“So do you remember which day it was exactly?” asked Xiao Shun.
Yao Cen suddenly and inexplicably felt a little chicken hearted. She thought for a full ten seconds, “That would be the eighth of January, I think.”
Xiao Shun showed a complicated smile. He walked out without saying anything.
Yao Cen blinked a few times in confusion as she watched Xiao Shun disappear beyond the glass doors.
“Why was he asking this? And, again, why was I so chicken hearted?”
She silently took out her phone and dialed Wen Wangyu’s number, “When did I get married?”
On the other side Wen Wangyu hesitated, “Three years ago.”
“I know it was three years ago. I asked exactly what date…?”
“… Let me think about it.”
“Forget it. I will think about it myself.”
After he hung up the phone, Wen Wanyu was left in confusion.
Soon after Xiao Shun left, her assistant Mai Yaqin walked in, “Mr. Yao, Mr. Yao Han is here.”
Yao Cen looked up and frowned, “What is he doing here?”
At the same time, Yao Han’s annoying voice sounded just outside the door, “Looks like I’m not welcome?”
The next thing she saw was him walking in with a smug look on his face.
Yao Cen gave him a blank look and said coldly, “So you know that. Then why did you still come here?”
Yao Han smiled smugly, “I’m here to check up on my company. It doesn’t matter if you welcome me or not.”
“Your company? I think you should go to the hospital and have your brain checked.”
Yao Cen said as he glared at him.
“So you don’t know yet. Grandfather has decided to take back Tulip International, and once he does, it will soon be mine. That’s my grandfather. If I ask him for this company, he’ll give me anything. After all, the future of the Yao family depends on me. What about you? You’re just a woman. How could they give you such a good company? Use your head and think about it!”
Yao Han put away his smile and grimaced.
