Because the room was very quiet, the microphone on Le Yao’s cell phone was amplified quite well. Therefore, everyone heard Nangong Jue’s words.
Hence, after Le Yao hung up the phone, she realized that eight eyes of the five people in the room were looking straight at her, scaring her. “You…”
“What is Sir Jue doing?” Song Qiaoqiao looked gossipy.
“Did he rekindle his feelings for you?” w.a.n.g Xia followed the gossip.
“Sister Lan, what’s the situation?” Qian Meiqi’s eyes widened. “Are you going to accept him again?”
Although Hong Xia didn’t say anything, she was also looking forward to it.
“Alright, stop gossiping.” Le Yao rubbed her forehead. “When we got a divorce back then, I promised my ex-husband that I would help when he needed help… Don’t think too much. It’s a very serious help.”
“He threatened you?” Qiao Qiao narrowed her eyes.
“No, after all, he saved me twice.” Le Yao sighed. “Without him, it’s hard to say if my heart, liver, spleen, lungs, and kidneys can still be in my body right now.”
Everyone fell silent because this was the truth.
“My family is also invited to the Nangong Corporation’s anniversary celebration, so don’t worry, I’ll be there.” Qiao Qiao patted Le Yao’s shoulder. “We can go to Beijing to play. That’s my territory. ”
“Then I’m relieved.” Le Yao really felt much more at ease. Actually, she wasn’t worried about being Nangong Jue’s female companion. She was worried about the Nangong family and the He family. They were all experts in killing without spilling blood. She was worried that she wouldn’t be their match.
This year’s first of October happened to be a Sunday. It would be a seven-day break. The next
Sunday would be a work day, but the school was still resting, so for the students, there would be eight days of holiday.
The Nangong Corporation’s anniversary banquet was on the night of October 2nd, so Nangong Jue booked a flight in the afternoon of October 1st.
“Why should I go so early?” Le Yao protested. “Why don’t you go back first? I’ll go over myself on the second. Anyway, it won’t delay the banquet.” Qiao Qiao was going to the Jiang family to accompany her grandparents for a day on the first, so she wanted to go back on the second.
“Let’s go over and familiarize ourselves with the environment as soon as possible.” Nangong Jue disagreed. “There’s also gowns and jewelry. If there’s anything inappropriate, there’s still time to change it.”
“But…”
“The tickets are out. First cla.s.s. No refunds.”
Le Yao could only compromise.
Hence, on the first day of the holiday, she went to the shop early in the morning and prepared the pastries she needed for the next two days. Then, she did a live broadcast. After that, Qiao
Qiao went to the Jiang family while Le Yao got into Nangong Jue’s car and went to the airport.
In the original book, Nangong Jue basically took private jets when he went out. Therefore, Le Yao was a little surprised to see the man queuing up to check the luggage and conducting security checks.
“What’s wrong? Don’t you recognize me?” Nangong Jue looked back at Le Yao.
“No, I just think that when you, Sir Jue, go out, why don’t you use a private jet? Wouldn’t that make you look more presentable?”
“Hehe.” Nangong Jue smiled. “It’s National Day. There’s aviation control in Beijing. Private routes usually won’t be approved. Moreover, the fee for a single take-off is at least 300,000 yuan. It’s about 600,000 yuan to go to Beijing. It’s much more expensive than first cla.s.s.” After a pause, his eyes darkened. “I have to raise a wife and son in the future, so I have to save money.”.
