Chapter 143 I’m Afraid I’ll Be Let Down

They didn't even have a quarrel yet, and he didn't answer the phone. Shen Qingchuan was too embarrassed to expose him.

"Maybe he accidentally hit the hang-up button. Call another one."

So Gu Jingyan called the second one, and then, the same thing happened again, he answered and hung up.

After repeating this four or five times, Gu Jingyan's face had turned as dark as the bottom of a pot.

Shen Qingchuan coughed lightly, "I'll call."

Shen Qingchuan called and the call was connected within a few seconds.

Qiao Ruoxing's voice came softly, "Hello."

Shen Qingchuan glanced at someone with a tense face next to him, coughed and said, "Sister-in-law, I'm treating you to dinner tonight, are you coming?"

Qiao Ruoxing joked, "How can you bear to treat us?"

Shen Qingchuan is notoriously stingy, and he always takes advantage of other people's dinner parties. If he says he's treating you one day, his purpose is definitely not pure.

"It's not me, it's Lu Chi. "Legal Domain" has become so popular, he has to treat you to a good meal, right?"

Gao Lan wanted to treat her to a meal before, but she refused. Gao Lan probably knew that they were not very familiar with each other, and she would not come if she was invited rashly, so she asked Lu Chi to find her through Shen Qingchuan.

Qiao Ruoxing thought about it and asked, "Where is the address and what time?"

"Where are you? I'll pick you up later."

"No, I'm driving."

"Then come and pick me up, just in time to save some gas, I'm on Jiudu Road."

Qiao Ruoxing...

Is he short of that gas money?

After hanging up the phone, Qiao Ruoxing said goodbye to Uncle Qin and drove away from the old house.

When Uncle Qin came in to report, the old lady was eating the wontons sent by Qiao Ruoxing.

Qiao Ruoxing came to apologize sincerely, so the wontons she sent were all wrapped by herself.

She was not a good cook, but she wrapped the wontons very well. She sent several boxes, and the old lady had eaten them for several days in a row.

Uncle Qin said gently, "The young lady just left."

"She should have left long ago. She stays here every day and doesn't eat here. It's like I'm abusing her."

Uncle Qin said gently, "The young lady is afraid that you will see her angry."

"If she really fears that I will be angry, she should immediately give me a baby!"

"Young people have their own ideas. The young lady is still young. It doesn't matter if she gets pregnant a few years later."

"I won't be interested in her if she gets pregnant a few years later."

"You are in good health and will live a long life."

The old lady glanced at him, "Did that girl buy you off by giving you a massager?"

Uncle Qin laughed softly, "You are not really angry with her, otherwise would you let me open the door for her? And if she really gets pregnant, the young master should be the one who is terrified. He doesn't know about the operation yet..."

The old lady didn't say anything, but just glanced at Uncle Qin, and the other party closed his mouth cautiously.

The old lady wiped her mouth and said lightly, "How is Jingran recently?"

"I just returned to the company. I heard from the people below that he has changed a lot. He has done a good job recently and his personality has become more restrained. He sent some special products this morning. It seems that these months have not been in vain. I understand your hard work."

"If he really understood, he would not have come back for so long without visiting me. He hates me in his heart."

Uncle Qin did not respond.

The incident of Gu Jingran had a very bad impact on the company at that time. The old lady was also very disappointed with him and sent him to the most difficult place in the company.

In fact, Gu Jingyan had also been to the company there, and he was an intern in college and took the initiative to ask to go there.

However, few people knew about this. When Master Jingyan went there, he was very low-key and went there as an intern.

The branch in the western region did not know Gu Jingyan's identity at all. He was arranged as an ordinary intern, and even his accommodation was in a dormitory.

At that time, the water supply system there was not yet complete, and the conditions were much more difficult than they are now. Gu Jingyan stayed there for nearly half a year, and when he came back, he was dark and thin.

His stay there for half a year was not in vain. The Western Branch was able to develop into its current scale because Gu Jingyan personally visited there and made targeted adjustments to the development plan.

The more difficult the conditions, the more they can train people's ability to deal with things. The old lady left Gu Jingran in the West, not only to let him reflect on himself here, but also to hope that he could calm down and learn more like Gu Jingyan.

But now it seems that the old lady's painstaking efforts are likely to be in vain.
