Chapter 325 - Can"t Help But Miss You
In the blink of an eye, it was noon. Xia Wanyuan read quickly and basically read all the information in the exhibition room.
After leaving the exhibition room, Wei Zimu brought Xia Wanyuan to the Old Madam. The Old Madam asked a few questions that were related to the Wei family"s business.
Wei Zimu considered that Xia Wanyuan did not know anything about the Wei family"s business and wanted to help her resolve the situation. Who would have thought that Xia Wanyuan would actually answer so readily? Wei Zimu looked at Xia Wanyuan in surprise.
"Are you staying for dinner?" Old Madam Wei did not comment on Xia Wanyuan"s reply.
Xia Wanyuan had no idea what status the Wei family had in China.
If it was anyone else, they would be able to brag about eating a meal in the Wei family for a long time.
Thinking of the many terrible rules of the Wei family, Xia Wanyuan felt that the food was probably not delicious, even though the food of the Wei family was indeed not bad.
"No need. I still have something on, so I won"t stay for dinner." Xia Wanyuan declined.
"Alright, you may go then." The old madam was not angry. She gestured for Wei Zimu to send Xia Wanyuan out.
Wei Zimu accompanied Xia Wanyuan to the door when the servant beside the Old Madam suddenly came out with a large box.
"Miss Xia, Old Madam said that you like to eat the dishes in the courtyard. They were specially made for you. Bring them back and eat them."
"Thank you." Xia Wanyuan reached out to take the lunch box and waved at Wei Zimu. "Bye."
"Bye, Sister Wanyuan. You can look for me if you need anything." Wei Zimu smiled gently.
The courtyard and manor were located at the two extremes of Beijing. They were very far away, but they were very close to Jun s.h.i.+ling"s company.
After some thought, Xia Wanyuan got the chauffeur to drive to the Jun Corporation.
——
It was already past noon, and the meeting room was filled with gloom. Since they could not come up with a plan that would satisfy Jun s.h.i.+ling, a few company leaders accepted Jun s.h.i.+ling"s instructions one by one.
Oh G.o.d, please save us.
Tears streamed down everyone"s faces. Who said that CEO Jun had become gentle?! He was clearly still the King of h.e.l.l!!
As if someone had heard everyone"s thoughts, Lin Jing pushed the door open and entered. He said a few words beside Jun s.h.i.+ling, and his expression softened visibly.
"We"ll talk in the afternoon. Meeting dismissed."
With that, Jun s.h.i.+ling strode out of the meeting room.
Everyone: Boohoo, Special a.s.sistant Lin, you"re really my savior!! You"ve given me a new life.
Lin Jing said, I"m sorry, you"ve found the wrong savior.
Jun s.h.i.+ling pushed open the door. Xia Wanyuan sat on the sofa, setting up the food and waiting for him to eat.
Jun s.h.i.+ling"s heart skipped a beat.
"Why are you here?" Jun s.h.i.+ling took off his coat, loosened his tie, and slowly sat beside Xia Wanyuan.
"Old Madam Wei packed a lot of food for me, so I brought it here. The food from the Wei family is really not bad," Xia Wanyuan said and reached for her chopsticks, but Jun s.h.i.+ling grabbed her wrist.
Xia Wanyuan looked up in surprise. Jun s.h.i.+ling"s eyes were bright.
"Kiss me, okay?" Jun s.h.i.+ling stared intently at Xia Wanyuan.
"…Jun s.h.i.+ling, can you not move?" Xia Wanyuan was a little helpless.
"I couldn"t help it. I missed you during the meeting. The thought of seeing you again after work made me miss you even more. But you came over at noon." Jun s.h.i.+ling paused, and a smile appeared in his eyes. "I"m very happy."
The joy and smile in Jun s.h.i.+ling"s eyes were too obvious, causing ripples in Xia Wanyuan"s heart.
Jun s.h.i.+ling rubbed the back of Xia Wanyuan"s hand. "Okay? Hm?"
As if scalded by the warmth in Jun s.h.i.+ling"s hand, Xia Wanyuan retracted her hand, but Jun s.h.i.+ling clenched it very tightly.
After a while, Xia Wanyuan could not stand Jun s.h.i.+ling"s gaze that was about to melt her. She made up her mind. Since she had kissed him before, she closed her eyes.
The corners of Jun s.h.i.+ling"s lips curled up slightly. He pulled her into his arms and covered the red face that he had thought about a thousand times.
Jun s.h.i.+ling was like a king who was patrolling his territory, carefully and enthusiastically putting his aura on every corner.
Xia Wanyuan felt that her entire body was soft. Jun s.h.i.+ling"s aura was too strong, unlike his usual gentleness. It was as if he wanted to imprint her from the inside out.
After a while…
Xia Wanyuan was almost out of breath when Jun s.h.i.+ling finally let go of her. However, he did not leave completely. Instead, he planted a kiss on Xia Wanyuan"s forehead and said as if he was sighing, "Why are you so lovable?"
]Xia Wanyuan leaned into Jun s.h.i.+ling"s arms to catch her breath, then pushed Jun s.h.i.+ling"s hand away. "Can you let me eat properly now?"
"Eat, I"ll peel the prawns for you." Jun s.h.i.+ling looked satiated, making Xia Wanyuan"s face heat up.
While Xia Wanyuan ate, Jun s.h.i.+ling did not eat much. He kept putting food in Xia Wanyuan"s bowl.
"Aren"t you hungry?" Xia Wanyuan looked at Jun s.h.i.+ling. He had been taking care of her and had not eaten much.
"I"m already full." Jun s.h.i.+ling looked at Xia Wanyuan meaningfully. "But if you want to feed me another meal, I don"t mind."
The moment Xia Wanyuan saw Jun s.h.i.+ling"s gaze, she knew what he was referring to. "I won"t come and eat lunch with you again."
"I was wrong." Jun s.h.i.+ling quickly admitted his mistake and placed a few white prawns in Xia Wanyuan"s bowl.
Xia Wanyuan glanced at the prawn meat in the bowl and glared at Jun s.h.i.+ling coquettishly. Jun s.h.i.+ling"s heart was itching from this look, but considering that Xia Wanyuan would be angry with him, Jun s.h.i.+ling could only peel the prawns for her obediently.

The two films "Above the Moon Palace" and "Moon As Frost" originally did not have much interaction.
After all, he was a big production director. From the beginning of the filming, his works had been praised by investors all the way to the altar.
Although "Moon As Frost" had obtained some support with the addition of Yan Ci, due to the controversial country theme and the unknown director and screenwriter, no one thought highly of it.
As the Weibo account of the production team of "The Moon Palace" had once followed Xia Wanyuan when they were about to announce the second female lead, so when the production team of "The Moon Palace" partic.i.p.ated in media interviews, a reporter asked if the production team had ever considered letting Xia Wanyuan play the second female lead role.
The director hesitated. This question was a little difficult. He could not say that Xia Wanyuan had rejected his invitation. After some deliberation, the director said,
"It"s like this. We did consider it at first, but we thought about many actresses at the same time. In the end, after we considered all their acting skills, we felt that she wasn"t very suitable for this role."
At this point, the director did not continue.. However, the public had already interpreted the director"s meaning: Xia Wanyuan"s acting skills did not suit the role, so she was eliminated by the production team of "Above the Moon Palace".
