Chapter 223 Waiting for you to come home
Bian Yue went to the company very early the next day, but she didn't think about the reason.
She just put it down to being too busy.
This reason allowed Bian Yue to temporarily forget the unpleasantness that occurred between her and Shen Jinci at night.
At this time, at Honey Media, Asi and Monkie were waiting at the office door. When they saw Bian Yue appear, they went to greet him.
"Boss Bian!" Ah Xi said with a smile, "You are finally here. We have been waiting for you for a long time!"
Bian Yue looked at Ah Xi with amusement and said jokingly, "What are you doing? I haven't delayed your salary."
"Not this one!" Asi paused and handed a gift to Bian Yue, "This is the gift that Monk and I chose for you. I hope Honey can do better and better."
A simple greeting and blessing helped to clear away some of the gloom in Bian Yue's heart.
She shook the gift box in her hand and confirmed, "Isn't this expensive?"
"No, we can't afford an expensive gift!" Ah Xi said with a smile: "It's just a simple little gift."
Bian Yue smiled and said softly, "Then I'll accept it. Thank you."
Asi said heartlessly that you're welcome, while Monk, who was standing next to him, smiled at Bian Yue with a slightly restrained expression.
Bian Yue took the gift, walked into the office, and opened it. It was a simple little rabbit ornament.
It's definitely the type that little girls would like.
Bian Yue smiled, put the ornaments on the table, paused, suddenly thought of something, and called Anny on the internal line.
Anny came in quickly and looked at Bian Yue curiously: "Boss Bian, what's the matter?"
Bian Yue handed the ornament over and said, "Go check it out."
"What are you checking?" Anny looked at the small item handed over by Bian Yue and couldn't help but smile, "This is so cute, who gave it to you?"
"It was given by Asi. He said it was a token of his love for Monchi and him."
"What is there to check?" Anny was puzzled.
Bian Yue's expression was calm. She spoke in a calm tone, "Check if there are any surveillance or eavesdropping parts."
Anny's eyes widened, and she was surprised and said, "It's not possible, is it? When did Ah Xi have such a brain?"
"Asi does look innocent, but I think Monk's complexion is abnormal. You should check it out first." Bian Yue said softly.
Anny agreed, but still looked at Bian Yue with complicated eyes. She hesitated for a moment and said hesitantly: "Boss Bian, are you being a little too cautious now?"
Bian Yue's expression was slightly stunned.
She knew that she was indeed extremely suspicious, but when she looked into it more deeply, even Bian Yue herself couldn't figure out when this problem started.
She was silent for a moment, looked at Anny helplessly, and said softly: "I don't want this to happen, but I can't make a single mistake now. I'm going to talk to Lu Zhinian about the new script later, so you should hurry up and check it out."
"Okay." Anny looked at the ordinary ornament in his hand again and said with a smile: "Don't worry, Mr. Bian, I will give it a thorough inspection today."
Bian Yue smiled and said softly, "Thank you for your hard work."
The sun was shining brightly during the day. Bian Yue finished the chores at hand and went to Xinghe.
On the way, Shen Jinci sent a text message, saying that he was going abroad and would be back in seven days, and asked Bian Yue to take good care of herself. Bian Yue looked at the text message, imagining Shen Jinci's expression when he sent the text message, and felt indescribable pain in her heart.
She typed slowly and dully, "Is it urgent? Do I have to go abroad now?"
But the next moment, Bian Yue frowned and deleted the entire line of words.
She bit her lip with a complicated expression. After a while, she rewrote - 'Okay, be safe on the road, I'll wait for you to come home'.
After finishing writing, Bian Yue stared blankly out the window.
She was so upset that even when she arrived at the gate of the galaxy, she was still immersed in her own world.
The driver kindly said, "Mr. Bian, we're here."
Bian Yue finally came back to her senses, opened the car door and walked out.
Lu Zhinian had been waiting for a long time. When he saw Bian Yue come in, a smile appeared on his face.
He put down the cup in his hand, nodded and smiled at Bian Yue, and said slowly: "I haven't seen you for a few days. I heard that you and Li Xing signed a bet."
Bian Yue sat down and looked at Lu Zhinian. She was in no mood to gossip. "My affairs with Li Xing have nothing to do with our cooperation, so I have nothing to say."
Lu Zhinian raised his eyebrows and placed a cup of tea in front of Bian Yue. "Why do I feel like you are taking your anger out on me?"
"I do not have."
"But your attitude is very bad." Lu Zhinian straightened his suit jacket with a serious posture. He sat down slowly, looked at Bian Yue with a faint smile, and cast a thoughtful look, "Let me guess, why are you so angry? Because I told you those things?"
"Lu Zhinian, you know very well that the reason you told me this was just to make me give up the cooperation with Lixing. By then, Xinghe will be the only one in power, and even if I have the final say, it will be difficult for me to have absolute say in Mitang." Bian Yue's voice was cold and straightforward. "I admit that I pushed for the cooperation with Lixing just to suppress your authority in Mitang."
Lu Zhinian couldn't help but laugh.
Bian Yue is a unique person in Lu Zhinian's business career.
She speaks straightforwardly and never beats around the bush. She seems to disdain all those roundabout things.
Lu Zhinian nodded thoughtfully, his smile still intact, "But how can you be sure that Li Xing is more suitable for Honey than Xinghe? Maybe neither of us is a good person."
"That doesn't matter. After all, the three parties should check and balance each other, right?" Bian Yue said coldly, "Can we talk about cooperation now?"
"Of course, but before we talk about cooperation, I still want to ask you one last question."
Bian Yue said coldly: "You ask."
"You already know that the Bian family's affairs were closely related to the Shen family. I don't understand why you still choose to be with Shen Jinci." Lu Zhinian turned his face slightly and said jokingly, "Could it be that the glory of the Bian family is not as important as Shen Jinci in your heart?"
Bian Yue said slowly without any hesitation: "I have never compared Shen Jinci and the Bian family together. We had different positions back then. I understand the difficulty he faced in that position, so I don't hate him, let alone blame him. He didn't use me. He was just making business decisions, and he didn't get involved in the conflict between the Bian and Li families."
"so what?"
"So we just need to discuss it between the two of us, and I just need him to give me an explanation."
Lu Zhinian's eyes revealed surprise.
He was surprised by Bian Yue's calmness. No wonder, despite such a blow, Bian Yue still cooperated with Li Xing.
He suddenly felt very bored and said uninterestedly: "Okay, let's talk about the new project."
