The Big Shot is Also Crazy About Me Today

Chapter 721: Second Uncle Wants to Check In

Or perhaps, he didn’t follow Qu Yuzhou’s advice to use Wang Zhu to cause trouble for Song Zhongming, but with Wang Zhu’s abilities, it would hardly stir any waves.

He could have stayed out of it, continued living his quiet and tough life, at least he would still be alive!

However, life doesn’t entertain such "what ifs," and things have come to this point; feeling regret won’t change anything!

Thinking of this, he found it quite amusing.

The dangers and hardships he faced while overseas were far greater than anything with Wang Zhu.

If it weren’t for Yan Ke secretly protecting him, who knows how many times he would’ve died.

He had already seen through the concept of life and death during that time.

Having seen through his own life and death, why would he care about others’?

The emergence of such emotions now is probably because of the young girl by his side.

Experiencing warmth and tenderness, he’s become sentimental.

He checked the time, thinking the young girl should be having lunch, or perhaps she had already finished.

Her roommate went to the company today; she must be quite happy and didn’t even have breakfast with him this morning before leaving.

Thinking of this, he couldn’t help but smile slightly.

Longing quietly swept over him, unstoppable.

...

Shi Nuan didn’t expect Song Yansheng to suddenly call.

At that moment, she was about halfway through her lunch with Yu Dou.

In fact, she ate a bit more, as she didn’t feel like talking with Yu Dou.

Yu Dou tried to make some conversation, but seeing her lack of interest, he didn’t continue.

Amid the silence, Song Yansheng’s call came through.

Seeing the number, Shi Nuan glanced up at Yu Dou, got up, and said, "I’ll answer a call!"

Yu Dou raised an eyebrow, with a very casual tone: "Go ahead!"

Shi Nuan left the suite with her phone and answered it.

On the other end, Song Yansheng’s magnetic and calm voice quickly came through: "What’s up? Are you busy?"

"No..." Shi Nuan’s eyes flickered slightly, thinking there’s no need to hide having lunch with Yu Dou from Song Yansheng.

If she hid it, Song Yansheng could easily find out later, causing unnecessary trouble.

She said, "Just now... I was having lunch!"

"Lunch?" Song Yansheng chuckled lightly on the other end: "Seems like Nuannuan is in a good mood today, having not yet finished lunch by this time..."

"No..." Shi Nuan bit her lip and said, "I didn’t eat in the company cafeteria today; I went out with Yu Dou to eat?"

Song Yansheng paused for a moment and then said flatly, "Oh, really?"

Shi Nuan said, "Today, Yu Dou introduced me to a few of my grandfather’s old friends. Since I have no personal ties with him and don’t want to owe him, I... treated him to a meal!"

"I see..." Song Yansheng’s tone noticeably lightened, saying, "Nuannuan is right; one shouldn’t owe favors randomly, especially from men!"

Shi Nuan’s eyes flickered lightly, not knowing what to say for a moment.

Song Yansheng continued, "Are you almost done with your meal, Nuannuan? When will you return to the company?"

Actually, Shi Nuan had already eaten more than half and wasn’t very hungry anymore. She said, "I’ve finished eating and plan to head back to the company soon!"

Song Yansheng responded with a "hmm" and said, "Okay, once you safely return to the company, give me a call!"

Call him? Clearly, it’s to check up on her!

Song Yansheng really is someone without a sense of security!

But he did say his insecurity is just for her!
