Chapter 473: Meeting (I)
After the brief make-out session, Jia Fei and Yuhan ended up going to bed without engaging in their good night workout routine.
Yuhan was lying on his back and sighed heavily while listening to the ASMR sound of rain pouring outside. He had never regretted something this much in his whole life.
Only if he had prepared a few balloons at his place, they would have been having the best time of their lives at the moment.
But all the plans failed just because he was lacking the preparation.
Jia Fei was lying on the bed next to him and noticed him sighing heavily. She grasped his hand that was on his side with her soft hands and said, ” Let’s just hold hands and go to sleep.”
” It’s better than nothing. I don’t like to share a bed with anyone, so consider it an honor that you’re sleeping next to me.” She said while holding his hands which has gone cold now due to nervousness.
Yuhan, who was feeling upset about missing the good opportunity, was comforted by her words and chuckled at her calling him lucky. ” If that’s the case, then I should work hard and make sure that you get used to the feeling of sleeping together with someone. That someone can only be me and myself. No one else other than me.” He said causing her to chuckle at his stupid yet funny use of words.
.....
As said this, he extracted his hand from hers and tugged her towards him in his embrace instead. He scooped her in his arms from the back and cuddled her to sleep.
“Rather than holding hands, let’s sleep like this. It’s better. Hmm...This way I can smell your fruity fragrance as well.” He said as he sniffed the scent of her perfume and realized that it is the best way to go to sleep.
He can not only feel the warmth of your body but will also feel connected to her like this.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtJia Fei was surprised when he suddenly back-hugged her and cuddled with her to sleep while tightly holding her in his embrace.
Her ears turned crimson in embarrassment but she was also liking this way of sleeping together. It was making her feel secure and loved.
Jia Fei was feeling giddy by this sleepy position but this position was making things hard for him at the same time as well.
His breath quickened when he realized the cons of this intimate sleeping position and bit his lower lip to control himself to moan out aloud.
However, after coolly pulling her towards him in an embrace, he cannot ask her to sleep separately. He took a deep breath and started counting sheep in his mind while holding her together in her arms.
That’s the best way he could keep his cool in this complex situation and sleep together with her as well.

Jiang Corporations
Jiang Ru was sitting at the top of her working desk and was sipping on red wine as she celebrated her biggest feat.
The deal with Han Zihao successfully concluded and now she is the owner of the land where she is going to start her first ever biggest project and will build her hotel.
They not only signed the contract but the process of formalities was completed so fast and smoothly that it didn’t even take a week for all the things to come to an end.
It was all because of Han Zihao. Once again she was touched by his sincerity and was sure that he was also interested in her.
She can use his feelings to her benefit and will get the best out of him. However, for now, she was glad that the land is finally hers now and is in her name.
It is the biggest investment of hers where she used all of her and her father’s savings to get that land in her name. Now she needs to get the favor of all the majority shareholders and show them that she is also capable of doing something.
She cracked the deal with the great businessman Han Zihao after all. Is there anything else that she cannot do?
Now even Grandfather Jiang will have to acknowledge her abilities and give her the deserving position at the company which should have been given to her by now.
” Ah! It feels so nice. The world without Jiang Yue is so peaceful and beautiful.” Jiang Ru moaned as she took another sip of her drink and enjoyed the best moment of her life.
She was always waiting for this day to come and it is finally here. She is not only standing up on her legs now but also, there is no one to compete against her in the power struggle.
The Jiang Corporations will be hers from now.
While she was sipping on her wine and celebrating the happiness that she finally sealed the deal with Han Zihao and the great Han Corporations, someone knocked on her door.
“Come in.” She stood up from the working desk and walked towards the couch in the office with her steady and confident steps. She was feeling a bit tipsy after drinking the wine but it was not enough to make her lose her cool.
She was aware that she is still at work, so she cannot dare to drink more than her capacity. She cannot afford to make a bad impression in front of all the employees and people. What will they say if they see you in this condition?
Jiang Ru’s assistant was surprised to see her drinking wine in the office and waited for her to give him a signal before he could speak.
” Why are you here? Didn’t you say that all of my schedules for today are over? I am tired. Postpone it to another day.” Jiang Ru said that she was tired to see the pile of documents on her working desk.
It was the biggest day for her. How can she work in this happy mood? It’s celebration time and not working time.
The assistant stood in front of Jiang Ru and clasped his hands in front of her politely. He pursed his lips in hesitance and looked at her seriously before saying, ” Madam, it is not about your schedule.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“Then what is it?” She asked curiously and put down her limited edition wine glass on the table and leaned back comfortably on the couch.
“The chairman has called for a meeting tomorrow afternoon to discuss regarding the future of the company. You have also received an invitation email for the same.” He reported to her.
“It is also said in the email that he will be reconsidering your position at the company as well and will announce his decision tomorrow at the meeting.”
Jiang Ru raised her brows in surprise and was elated to hear this news. ” Is that true? Future of the company? I am sure it must be about choosing the heir of the Jiang Corporations.”
“Looks like the old man is finally coming to his senses. Haha. Finally, he is doing something that should have been done long ago.” Jiang Ru let out a sigh of relief as she was pleased upon hearing about this news.
What can he possibly do at the meeting other than announce her as his successor? Because other than her, he doesn’t have any grandchildren anymore. There is no way that he will give such an important position to someone else. It doesn’t make sense.
Since Jiang Yue is not in the world anymore, she doesn’t need to worry about competing for this position with someone. Because it is going to be hers now.
The assistant pursed his lips and looked at her worriedly. ” However Madam, something doesn’t fit right with this sudden announcement.”
” Only today we got the news that the formalities of the land have been completed and it belongs to you from now on. Don’t you think that it’s too coincidental to believe?” He was feeling anxious because everything seems to be too perfect to be true.
Jiang Ru frowned when she heard his words and looked at him coldly, ” Are you jinxing my happiness now?”
“You kept suspecting the intentions of Mr. Han when I asked you to finalize the deal and was doubting the whole process of change in the ownership of the land. Now you are even doubting the announcement made by Grandfather as well.” She squinted her eyes and looked at him with suspicion in her eyes.
” Are you sure it was not you who is trying to ruin my plans? Because it was strange that you keep questioning everything when things are going smoothly.” Jiang Ru commented while looking at her assistant distrustfully.
The assistant pursed his lips and lowered his head, ” It was not my intention, Madam. I also wish for the happiness of Madam, that’s why I was trying to be more cautious about everything. Pardon me if you were offended by my words.”
Jiang Ru smiled to see him apologizing right away and said, ” Being cautious is fine but stop suspecting every single thing in life. I know what I am doing and am confident about my decisions.”
“Now go and pick my white suit from the boutique. I want to wear it to the meeting tomorrow. It’s going to be a special day after all and all eyes will be on me. So I should put more effort into my look for tomorrow.”
“Yes. I will take my leave then.” The assistant nodded and exited her office without raising another question.
