After Lin Xiaotian left the hospital, he was planning to go straight back to the company. Just then, his phone rang. Seeing the incoming number, a smile couldn't help but spread across his lips.
"Little Tongtong, what made you suddenly think of calling me? Weren't you very busy recently?"
Ye Wantong's annoyed voice came from the phone: "You scoundrel, if I don't call you, you won't call me, will you?"
"I've been so busy lately that I haven't seen a single word of concern from you, not even a phone call. Do I annoy you that much?"
"Haven't seen you for so long, are you enjoying the peace and quiet?"
Lin Xiaotian could hear the hint of grievance and anger in her words, and a brilliant smile appeared on his face again. "How could that be? I was just afraid of disturbing your mood with a call."
"So I just didn't call. What if I upset you and your work goes poorly, making you even busier?"
"You'll call me when you're done anyway. And now, I've already received your call!"
"One day apart feels like three years. It's been who knows how many years. I can't wait to see you. I really miss my Little Tongtong after not seeing her for so long."
Hearing this, a soft hum came from the other end of the phone.
Lin Xiaotian could imagine her proud little demeanor. He smiled and said, "Tell me, do you need my help with something? Just ask, and I'll definitely handle it perfectly for you."
"Who asked you to be mine!"
"Who's yours? Don't flatter yourself, I'm not!" Ye Wantong's voice held a hint of shyness.
Lin Xiaotian's smile was brilliant. "You admitted it yourself before. Now you want to go back on your word? Anyway, I don't care. You're mine from now on. So, what do you need me for?"
After a few seconds of silence from the phone, Ye Wantong's voice came again: "Come to my company. I'll be waiting for you here. Hurry up, I still have a lot of things to finish."
"But I need your help now, and you have to come in person."
"It just so happens that I have nothing to do right now. I'll be right over."
After hanging up the phone, Lin Xiaotian went directly to Ye's Group. The previous words were just him joking. He had indeed almost forgotten Ye Wantong. And during this time, Ye Wantong hadn't come to the villa, and he had indeed felt a little bored.
When he arrived, Ye Wantong was already waiting at the company entrance.
As soon as they met, he could feel the tender affection radiating from Ye Wantong's eyes.
He couldn't help but wonder in his heart, could this girl have really fallen for him?
Of course, he would never dare to say it out loud, only thinking about it in his heart. Otherwise, he was afraid she would really unleash her fury. His face still wore a brilliant smile.
"Little Tongtong, haven't seen you for so long, do you miss me?"
"Let me hug you and see if you've lost weight."
Ye Wantong's pretty face flushed slightly, and she directly gave Lin Xiaotian a sly glance. "Stop fooling around, I really have something to ask you."
"I know you have something, otherwise I wouldn't be here. I don't want to disturb your work. But just tell me what it is. As long as I'm here, any trouble can be solved."
Lin Xiaotian smiled and directly put his arm around Ye Wantong's shoulder, whispering in her delicate ear, "Girl, honestly, do you miss me?"
Ye Wantong could clearly feel the slight tickling sensation by her ear, and her face was also covered with a faint blush.
Her beautiful eyes held a hint of grievance, but more so, a strong sense of joy and excitement. "Guess?"
Lin Xiaotian chuckled wickedly. "I guess you do miss me, otherwise you wouldn't have hesitated so much when you called. You sounded like a little wife who's been wronged."
"But seeing how busy you are, your company must be developing better and better, and your business is constantly expanding."
"It's just a pity that you're so busy now that you don't have time to come to the villa. I usually miss you quite a bit. It's quite boring without someone to bicker with."
Ye Wantong directly gave him a charming glare. "Forget it, I won't tease you anymore. I need the jade pendant now."
"And I plan to give this jade pendant to someone. One of my business partners is in danger recently, even life-threatening. This jade pendant can protect his life."
"Some of our company's jewelry needs to be sourced through him. He gives us very low prices, and we've been cooperating for so long. He's a very good person. It's because he provides me with goods that he's attracted some people's attention."
"To be frank, his appearance has taken a bite out of someone else's pie. Although he's also for profit, he's the only one who hasn't raised prices for me. Everyone else thinks I've just taken over as the chairman of Ye's Group and wants to take advantage of us."
Lin Xiaotian understood what was going on after hearing the general explanation.
A brilliant smile appeared on his face. "No problem, it's just a jade pendant, right? I'll give it to you now. Do you want me to go with you to see that person and help him with his fortune-telling, to see if he's in danger of bloodshed recently?"
Ye Wantong nodded. "I was planning to see him anyway. Since you're here, let's go together."
Lin Xiaotian didn't even enter Ye's Group and went with Ye Wantong to the Blue Sky Hotel.
When they arrived, he directly knocked on the door of the other party's private room.
The person who opened the door was a bodyguard, also to prevent any unforeseen circumstances.
After entering the room, Lin Xiaotian saw the business partner. He was about fifty years old, with some graying temples, a square face, and a slightly stout build, about 1.8 meters tall.
"General Manager Ye, welcome, welcome!"
"Please sit down quickly!"
The business partner laughed heartily and picked up an exquisite tea box from the side.
"I know General Manager Ye doesn't like alcohol, unlike a rough person like me. Coincidentally, someone gave me a box of tea. This is a precious tea that only produces a few kilograms annually. Such a good thing is very rare. If it weren't for General Manager Ye, I wouldn't be willing to offer it to anyone else."
Ye Wantong said with a smile, "Then I must have a good taste of Manager Zhang's tea today. By the way, let me introduce you. This is my boyfriend, his name is Lin Xiaotian."
"Boyfriend?" Manager Zhang looked at Lin Xiaotian with surprise. He had originally thought this was a subordinate brought by Ye Wantong, but he didn't expect him to be her boyfriend.
