At the mention of the orphanage, Xuxu couldn't wait to pour out her worries to Jiang Zhuoheng . "Yes, the government is pressing us to relocate the orphanage . I was scouting for a suitable place and dropped by to visit the children at the same time . "
Jiang Zhuoheng responded, "Don't be too anxious because there's no need to relocate the orphanage . "
Without taking his words to heart, Xuxu smiled and replied, "How could it be possible? The government has been pressing us on this matter countless times . "
Jiang Zhuoheng replied cautiously, "I'm just saying that there might be a possibility, so don't worry too much about it . "
"Let's not talk about this anymore . " Xuxu diverted the topic . "Have you been busy lately?"
It's been too long that they had a good chat . Each time they ran into each other, it was under awkward circumstances, and the usual greeting would seem like a grave sin .
This time, though, they had a hearty chat .

When Xuxu arrived at the office that morning, the strong rose scent permeated the air . She felt engulfed by a romantic atmosphere .
As it was only a few more days to the Christmas event, Xuxu was swamped with work .
All of a sudden, a notification popped on her phone . She took a glance, and without a doubt, it was from Yan Rusheng .
She was typing away on the keyboard with one hand and used the other hand to open up the message . "Wen Xuxu, it suddenly occurred to me that you have not addressed me as 'husband' since the day we got married . "
There was a long pause…
"What the heck?" She was working her socks off, and there he was, idling overseas and had nothing better to do .
Xuxu was fuming . "I heard from Aunt Mu Li that Second Uncle is recovering well . So can you get yourself home?"

Yan Rusheng texted: "Why can't you just say 'Ah Sheng, I missed you . Can you come home soon?' You are just being coquettish by pretending to be reserved . "
Xuxu was speechless…
She couldn't help but feel that there was a major communication barrier between them .
She locked the screen of her cell phone with no intention of having any further conversation with Young Master Yan . Unexpectedly, her cell phone rang . 'Yan Rusheng' showed up on her caller ID .
Xuxu furrowed her eyebrows and answered the call reluctantly .
"When will we know the result of the Haicheng City land bid?"
Yan Rusheng's first words were regarding the outcome of the land bidding in Haicheng City .
Xuxu felt a sense of guilt, and answered timidly, "It's still early . "
If Yan Rusheng found out that she had given up on the bidding, he would definitely fly into a rage . As he's currently overseas accompanying her father-in-law, she didn't want to let him know for the fear of affecting his mood .
She'll let him slaughter her when he's back .
Yan Rusheng replied, "I'll give a call to District Head Jia to find out . "
Xuxu panicked . "You don't have to . I'll give a call to him instead in a short while . You rest easy and take good care of father . You finally had a chance to accompany him, so don't worry about work . "
"Wen Xuxu, you really are becoming more understanding . " Yan Rusheng's voice was filled with a subtle trace of affection . "Actually, there wasn't a need to ask as I've already put everything in order before I left . Once the document is submitted, Flourish & Prosper will definitely win the bid . "
"Mm . " Xuxu gradually lowered her eyes . As she heard Yan Rusheng sounding so confident and enthusiastic, she felt sad .
"Regarding the matter that I've spoken to you earlier, what's your consideration?"
Xuxu was puzzled . "Which matter?"
Earlier, when he opened his mouth, he only spoke about the bidding . What else did he say?
Yan Rusheng slightly coughed . It seemed that he was embarrassed to say it again and took a while before speaking softly, "Call me . Huh?"
Xuxu suddenly recalled the text message that he had sent and blushed . He spoke in a hushed tone, "We'll talk when you return . "
Both of them felt embarrassed over the phone and the atmosphere turned ambiguous gradually .
"Wen Xuxu, why did you call my name when you were unconscious that time?"
