Chapter 721: Chapter 721: Uncle is Angry
After she had spoken to the uncle, he seemed to get angry and didn’t say a word to her on the way back. Once they reached Li Garden, he went straight to the study.
Staring at the uncle’s retreating back.
It seemed like the uncle was genuinely angry—what should she do? She had to find a way to coax him.
Jian Dan spent the whole night awake, tossing and turning in bed, thinking of ways to appease the uncle.
She didn’t know when she fell asleep.
By the time she woke up, it was already past 7 in the morning.
She got dressed and went downstairs for breakfast.
When she arrived at the dining room, she was surprised not to see the uncle.
“Jin, where’s Mr. Chu?” He should be up by this time.
“Oh! Young Master, he went to the company early this morning!”
“He’s already left?”
It seemed that Mr. Chu was really very angry; he had never been angry with her for so long before!
What should she do?
Just as Jian Dan was at her wit’s end…
Jin handed Jian Dan a parcel. “Young Madam, this was delivered early this morning!”
“For me? But I haven’t shopped online.” Jian Dan took the parcel and saw the sender: Sister.
Jian Dan was momentarily at a loss, but after opening the parcel, she realized it was from Zimo, her sister.
The parcel contained all the materials needed for school, as well as supplies and uniforms!
Jian Dan glanced through…
She was going to a private high school where the children all came from very wealthy families! The girl she was supposed to protect was named Ruan Qing, who usually didn’t talk much and had a somewhat solitary personality!
When Jian Dan saw the word “solitary”, her brows furrowed.
Solitary! That meant she was not easy to approach!
It looked like it was going to take quite an effort.
Since Ruan Qing was a boarding student, to facilitate closeness, Jian Dan also moved into the dormitory as a boarder.
Due to the nature of the private high school, each student had a single room in the dormitory.
Jian Dan’s dormitory was right next door to Ruan Qing’s!
Her sister had prepared everything she needed; all she had to do was show up.
But, of course, she had to make up with Mr. Chu before leaving!
Her eyes skimmed over the school uniform, and Jian Dan’s lips curved into a smile…
She had an idea!
Arriving at the company very early, Chu Liyuan was listless and unspirited all day, occasionally looking at his phone.
That lass hadn’t even made a single phone call to him, let alone sent a message.
So Chu Liyuan’s mood was very irritable throughout the day.
His face spelled out three words: Don’t mess with me!
This side of Mr. Chu had not been seen by Chu Liyuan for a long time.
The only reason Mr. Chu could suddenly become like this was because of Jian Dan!
So, after leaving the office, Chu Liyuan immediately made a call to Jian Dan…
“Let me tell you, young lady! What exactly happened between you and Mr. Chu to make his temper so volatile!”
“It’s nothing! Just make sure that the uncle comes home on time tonight, and I promise I’ll return to you a warm and friendly CEO tomorrow!”
“You said it, I’ll make sure Mr. Chu leaves work on time!”
Tonight was originally free of plans, but Chu Liyuan, not wanting to go home so early, had scheduled a business meeting.
Yet, risking her life, Chu Liyuan took the initiative to cancel the business meeting without informing Chu Liyuan.
That evening, taking advantage of the opportunity to drive Chu Liyuan to the business meeting, she sent him straight home instead….
