Chapter 170

Zhong Ruanxing and Song JinXing went from exchanging text messages at first, to making voice calls later, and finally progressed to video calls tonight after chatting for a long time. Vissit novelbin(.)c.om for updates

Zhong Ruanxing looked at herself on the phone screen and felt it was no different from a horror movie. "Song JinXing, why don't we just do a voice call? Looking at each other like this feels kind of creepy."

Song JinXing was leaning against the bed. As she requested, he had a face mask on. "You'll get used to it if you look more."

He made a vivid annoyed expression, squeezing his eyebrows inwards and pouting unhappily.

Song JinXing: "............"

It was quite creepy indeed, he almost dropped his phone in shock.

Maybe they should just do a voice call after all.

Fortunately, Zhong Ruanxing was just teasing him. She laughed out loud twice, and stopped making expressions that damaged the handsome image of the boss. "Aling's cooking has improved so much. She's been making different dishes for me these two days, no repeats at all. Don't you think there's a possibility that her dream is actually to become a chef?"

Song JinXing saw right through it in one sentence: "Her dream should be just to cook for you, it's unrelated to being a chef."

After chatting for a while, Song JinXing told her about Zhong Dad's intention to invite his daughter's boyfriend home for a meal. Zhong Ruanxing was not surprised at all upon hearing this. Her dad was just that kind of very nice person.

Going back to her own home for a meal, there was of course nothing to hesitate about. What made Zhong Ruanxing hesitate was another matter: "Do you think I should also bring you back to the ancestral home to meet Grandpa and Grandma? Do they know about our relationship? Do Grandpa and Grandma have any requirements on family background and career for their grandson's wife?"

Generally speaking, prestigious families like theirs would care a lot about their partner being an entertainer, right? You could tell from the contrast with Bai Yinyue's grandparents' criteria for choosing a grandson's wife. She truly respected those elders, and would be very upset if they nitpicked and disapproved of her.

Song JinXing noticed her concerns. He brought the phone closer and softly reassured her: "They won't interfere with my choice. And you're outstanding, no one will dislike you."

Zhong Ruanxing worried for just two seconds before bouncing back to full confidence: "You're right."

Song JinXing covered his eyes and laughed. His star had always been very proud.

Song JinXing didn't have many days of vacation. This was the time to capitalize on his popularity and develop his career, so he couldn't rest for too long either.

Fu Ling didn't understand what his boss's gaze meant, but he could feel his boss missed him!

The boss didn't bring him abroad this time, leaving him to oversee company operations domestically instead. Fu Ling felt quite dejected at first, thinking his work capabilities weren't recognized. Later Tong Ling pointed out in one sentence that rather than distrusting him, the boss keeping him at headquarters was actually a sign of great trust!

In ancient times emperors went on expeditions while crown princes ruled the country. Now the boss went abroad while the assistant stayed to defend the home base - it was the exact same logic!

Fu Ling felt he had redeemed himself. In the past twenty-odd days he practically lived at the company, steadily guarding the boss's rear!

As expected, after getting in the car, the boss glanced over the information he had sent and praised him: "You did well, thanks for your hard work this period. I'll give you a bonus at the end of the month."

Fu Ling was so emotional his ears turned red. He stood up straight. "Just doing my job!"

On this trip out, the boss seemed to have regained the amiable aura from the past few months. The wildly discussed Hidden Star Island owner online recently - he knew the inside story since he had handled the island purchase procedures personally.

Later when the livestream blew up, only after watching the variety show did he realize the boss had spent a fortune to buy an island and go abroad, all to accompany his boss lady!

Unfortunately he couldn't disclose this matter. He was the only one on the entire Internet shipping the boss/boss lady couple, such a blissful loneliness! In the afternoon when he saw Miss Zhong drive over to pick up the boss, his happiness peaked!

In the private garage, after Zhong Ruanxing buckled her seatbelt, she rolled down the window and said to the little assistant still standing outside: "You can go back, I won't return to the company today."

Fu Ling suppressed his excitement. "Yes boss!" But he really couldn't resist greeting the boss lady in the driver's seat: "Miss Zhong, see you later."

Just as he was about to leave, the boss suddenly called him back: "Wait."

Fu Ling turned around to see the boss taking a red envelope from Miss Zhong, smiling as he handed it over: "Your boss lady said beneficiaries get a share, this is for you."

Fu Ling abruptly widened his eyes, then was overjoyed.

Boss lady! The boss acknowledged it directly!

His shipped couple became real!
