Flash Marriage: He is a Wife-pampering Addict

Chapter 2660 - 464: Has the Driver Arrived Yet?

Bai Qingling received a call from Mo Ziye, who was kind enough to let her go home and rest.

She turned to thank Momo, "Sister Momo, you’re really impressive. If it were me, Brother Ziyi definitely wouldn’t agree."

Momo chuckled, "It wasn’t me."

"Ah?"

Qingling was stunned for two seconds and turned to look at Qinghuan.

Qinghuan also shook her head, "I didn’t contact my cousin."

Apart from feeling sorry for Qingqing, her cousin was very demanding on everyone else. If Qingling wasn’t feeling extremely unwell, he wouldn’t let her go.

Qingling joked, "Could it be that Brother Ziyi suddenly felt kind-hearted because my parents are gone, so he gave me a break?"

"It was Junming."

Momo laughed, shattering her illusion.

Qingling’s smile froze on her face.

Jian Ye thought he hadn’t checked the calendar before going out today and inviting Qingling for a meal turned into inviting a crowd.

They also kept casually mentioning Chu Junming.

Knowing Qingling had stomach pains during her period, Jian Ye later offered to take her home.

"Qingling, take it easy since you’re not feeling well. Let me drive you home."

Bai Qingling shook her head, "It’s not to that extent."

"Girls shouldn’t be too hard on themselves, nor should they be too strong," Jian Ye jokingly said.

However, Bai Qingling, who was so delicate she had to take days off during her period, preferred to drive home herself rather than let him take her.

This made Jian Ye feel a bit disappointed.

He reluctantly compromised in the end, "Call or text me once you reach home; otherwise, I’ll be worried."

With Ye Zhan, Momo, and Qinghuan around, Jian Ye couldn’t follow Bai Qingling in his car.

So he left on his own.

Bai Qingling went home and buried herself under the covers for a nap.

If not for her phone ringing, she might have slept until dusk.

Yawning, she reached for her phone and pressed the answer button, sleepily saying "Hello."

She hadn’t even looked at the caller ID.

Momo’s voice came through the line, "Qingling, are you still sleeping?"

Bai Qingling raised her hand to rub her eyes and sat up, her sleepiness reduced by a third, "I’m awake now."

"Come to my house for dinner, I’ll make something delicious for you."

"Didn’t Ye Zhan forbid you from cooking?"

"Don’t worry, there’ll be food once you arrive."

"Alright."

Even though Qingling didn’t have to cook herself, and the auntie could make whatever she wanted,

having a meal alone wasn’t as lively.

After agreeing, Qingling hesitantly asked, "Sister Momo, will I be unwelcome? You two just got married, wouldn’t you feed me dog food instead?"

"Don’t worry, you won’t be the only one here. Are you coming over by yourself, or should I send someone to pick you up?"

"Should Ye Zhan come and pick me up? I wouldn’t dare."

"I’ll send a driver to get you. Get ready; I’m going to cook."

"Who..."

Before Qingling could finish, Momo hung up.

She wondered, Momo’s family didn’t have a driver, and Ye Zhan wouldn’t come to pick her up.

It was possibly Zinan, Ziyang, or Qinghuan—those single dogs.

Especially since Momo mentioned there wouldn’t just be Qingling.

...

Imperial City

Mother Chu didn’t know what Chu Junming had said to the old man that day.

As a result, the old man was siding with him.

He even instructed her not to introduce him to unreliable women anymore or arrange dates for him.

After shopping with Jiang Qian and getting a beauty treatment, it wasn’t even five in the afternoon when Mother Chu brought her to the Chu Group to see Chu Junming.

"Madam, the president is on a business trip."

Upon hearing the secretary’s words, Mother Chu thought for a moment that Chu Junming had known she was bringing Jiang Qian to the company and didn’t want to see her.

She maintained a stern face, commanding the air of a president’s mother, "I just spoke with Junming at noon; how could he be on a business trip?"

"Madam... the president really is on a business trip."

The secretary couldn’t stop Mother Chu from trying to barge into the president’s office.

He could only explain while following her.

Mother Chu pushed open the office door, finding it empty.

Her expression changed slightly, and she asked harshly at the secretary’s explanation, "Did Junming say where he went for his business trip?"

"He went to G City."

The secretary spoke in a low voice.

Mother Chu still heard it.

"He just came back from G City. What’s he doing there again?"

The secretary shook his head, "Madam, I’m not quite sure. It seems that Mo General from Haochen Group contacted President Chu about a project... President Chu also took several senior technicians to G City..."

"Are you sure about this?"

"Absolutely."

"Aunt, my brother just returned from G City and went back. He must have a compelling reason. Don’t be upset. You can find out by asking about his flight and giving him a call later."

Jiang Qian, who had been quietly watching, spoke up timely.

The secretary hadn’t seen her before. Only busy explaining things to Mother Chu earlier, he had completely ignored her.

After all, she wasn’t an extraordinarily stunning woman. Though she donning luxury brands, as Chu Junming’s secretary, he had seen plenty of women of remarkable backgrounds.

Only now, hearing her call the president her brother,

did he take a closer look at her, "Is this lady talking about our president?"

Jiang Qian smiled slightly, politely nodding, "Yes, your president is my newly recognized god-brother. My god-mother and I didn’t know he was on a business trip. Could you tell us when his flight is and how many days he’ll be in G City?"

The secretary found Jiang Qian very polite and thought about it before telling her, "The president’s flight was at two in the afternoon to G City. I don’t know how many days those technicians will stay, but the president will definitely return tomorrow morning."

Tomorrow’s schedule hadn’t been canceled or postponed.

Jiang Qian’s eyes flickered with a smile, "Could you perhaps call your president and ask where he is right now?"

"This..."

The secretary looked troubled.

Jiang Qian lowered her head, took out a pair of earrings she bought earlier from her bag and slipped it to the secretary, "These are new this year. I think they suit your style well. You’ve worked hard as my brother’s secretary. My god-mother is just worried since my brother has been busy with work and hasn’t been home."

The secretary was taken aback, "Oh, I can’t accept this... I shouldn’t..."

Jiang Qian handed the box back into her hand, "It’s not anything valuable. If you refuse, you’d be disrespecting my god-mother..."

...

G City.

After finishing her call with Momo, Bai Qingling took another shower.

Changed her clothes, and styled her hair into a bun.

Then applied some skincare products, her lips were a bit dry, so she put on some lipstick.

Looking at the exquisite beauty in the mirror, she couldn’t help but smile.

[Sister Momo, has the driver you sent arrived?]

[Arrived.]

After sending Momo a message, Qingling went downstairs and gave auntie a few instructions, remembering at noon how Momo mentioned thanks to Chu Junming, Mo Ziye agreed to give her a break.

She pursed her lips, hesitated for a moment, and opened WeChat.

She exited the living room, looking downward and texting Chu Junming while walking towards the villa’s entrance.
