Chapter 981 - Can You Come and Keep Me Company?

Not long after hanging up the phone, Jiang Cheng's phone chimed with a notification. He opened it to find a WeChat message from Zhu Yan.

Opening the chat window, a detailed list from Kyoto Children's Hospital immediately appeared.

This list was a summary of children's data and medication usage after strict review.

Although Zhu Yan didn't personally supervise on-site in Kyoto,

she meticulously re-checked every expenditure in these bills with a rigorous and responsible attitude, and promptly reported the latest progress to Jiang Cheng.

Looking at these lists, Jiang Cheng had originally planned to go find Zhu Yan to deepen their mutual understanding and emotional connection.

One must know that Zhu Yan's favorability value towards him had already reached 89 points.

At such a critical juncture, if he could strike while the iron was hot, he might be able to push it to 90 points.

Before he could text Zhu Yan, a sudden phone call interrupted his thoughts.

Looking at the caller ID, Jiang Cheng pressed the answer button.

Wang Yuyan's voice immediately came through the receiver: "darling, I miss you so much."

Before Jiang Cheng could answer, he distinctly felt that Wang Yuyan's emotions were unusual.

Normally, Wang Yuyan's tone was seductive and alluring, but today, it seemed to carry a hint of inexplicable anxiety and sadness.

Her tone seemed shrouded in a thick mist, mixed with an obvious nasal sound, clearly indicating she had been crying.

"What's wrong?? Why does your voice sound like that?? Were you bullied??" Jiang Cheng asked anxiously.

As soon as he finished speaking, Wang Yuyan fell silent for several seconds on the other end.

She seemed to be trying to calm her inner turmoil.

She responded softly, "En, can you come and keep me company??"

"Where are you? I'll be right there."

Seeing Jiang Cheng agree so readily, Wang Yuyan on the other end of the phone was instantly stunned.

For a moment, she didn't know how to respond.

She said a little shyly, "Are you busy with work? I'm not at work today, I'm at my rented place."

Although Jiang Cheng had nothing to do at the moment,

how could he say he was free at such a critical moment?

Even if he had nothing to do, he had to pretend to be busy.

Since ancient times, true feelings don't last, only schemes win hearts.

Especially in such an unusually vulnerable moment, if you drop everything and rush to her, which Girl wouldn't be moved?

Thinking this, Jiang Cheng immediately put on an extremely busy tone and said, "How can I focus on work when you're like this? Don't worry about me, send me the address, I'll be right over."

As expected, seeing Jiang Cheng drop his work and not hesitate to come and accompany her,

Wang Yuyan's soft heart was instantly deeply touched, and a surge of emotion, like a tide, overwhelmed her, almost drowning everything.

Originally, she desperately wanted Jiang Cheng to be by her side, but now she spoke somewhat considerately, "I'm sorry, you're so busy, but I... I actually don't have anything important, I just missed you. If you're busy, then wait until you're done."

"You miss me? Then I have even more reason to go. Send me the address."

After Jiang Cheng said this, Wang Yuyan didn't know how to respond.

Jiang Cheng raised his voice, "Send it to me, or else I'll spank your bottom later."

Wang Yuyan softly replied, "Thank you, hubby~"

After hanging up the phone, Jiang Cheng quickly operated his phone and sent the detailed destination address to Wang Sheng.

Seeing Jiang Cheng walk out of the villa, Wang Sheng quickly walked to the car, opened the door, and respectfully waited for Jiang Cheng to get in.

After Jiang Cheng was seated, Wang Sheng softly called out, "Young Master Jiang."

Listening to the awe and humility in Wang Sheng's voice, Jiang Cheng subconsciously glanced at the rearview mirror inside the car.

His gaze happened to fall on Wang Sheng's slightly tired face.

Especially seeing those two particularly conspicuous dark circles, Jiang Cheng couldn't help but click his tongue and sigh twice.

Jiang Cheng's lips curved slightly upward, and he teased with a hint of playfulness, "You're an old scumbag, you look like you rested very well."

Seeing Jiang Cheng misunderstand him, Wang Sheng originally wanted to explain that his dark circles weren't entirely from frolicking with women.

Although Jiang Cheng had given him a few days off, it just so happened to coincide with Jolins's matter.

These past few days, he had been both busy and on standby at all times.

He had been fully attentive to any disturbances in the Tyrande region 24 hours a day.

However, just as these words were about to escape his lips, Wang Sheng suddenly felt his throat dry up, and he found it difficult to speak.

With the words on the tip of his tongue, Wang Sheng was unable to speak.

Because Jiang Cheng had already been good enough to him, and besides, these were his duties, so what was there to say?

Moreover, he had indeed been very happy these past few days.

How could Jiang Cheng not know that Wang Sheng had been busy these past few days? But even if he knew, he had to pretend not to know.

After all, he was the boss, and the boss's duty was to PUA employees and paint grand visions.

However, Jiang Cheng was not good at PUA or painting grand visions.

He was better at genuinely moving his subordinates.

Jiang Cheng leaned forward and patted his shoulder: "Do you really need to be like this?? I've already gotten you an annual pass, just go during your usual time off, don't wear yourself out..."

Indeed, these words brought a warm current to Wang Sheng's heart.

Knowing that your subordinate is mentally exhausted from seeking pleasure, you didn't blame him for delaying work; instead, you were concerned about his health.

Who wouldn't like such a boss?

"Understood, thank you, Young Master Jiang. I will definitely pay attention next time."

...The car soon arrived at a not-so-new residential complex next to Luxury Hotel.

Although the Aman hotel is very large, the surrounding environment still feels a bit remote.

Although the residential complex Wang Yuyan rented was a bit old, it was fortunately an elevator building.

After taking the elevator to the sixteenth floor, Jiang Cheng pressed the doorbell for apartment 1603.

Soon, the door opened.

As soon as she opened the door and saw Jiang Cheng, Wang Yuyan immediately threw herself into his arms.

She wasn't wearing makeup today; her usually fair face was now pale and bloodless.

Her hair was disheveled, lacking its usual luster and smoothness, appearing messy.

Her normally bright large eyes now seemed dim and lifeless.

Her eyes were a bit swollen, clearly indicating she had just cried.

Her bloodless lips were tightly pursed as she leaned against Jiang Cheng's chest.

Jiang Cheng embraced her with a pained expression, his hands gently patting the somewhat thick fluffy loungewear she was wearing.

Seeing Wang Yuyan in this state, Jiang Cheng was even more certain that something had happened to her.

Upon entering, the first thing that caught his eye was a small entryway, on which sat an exquisite vase holding a few elegant fresh flowers, exuding a faint fragrance.

Next to the entryway was a shoe cabinet, neatly arranged with various shoes.

As the door slowly closed, Jiang Cheng extended his arms and tightly embraced her light figure.
