Chapter 200 Picking Up My Wife from get off work
Jiang Shibai's eyes flashed with a triumphant smile, but his voice sounded very reluctant, as if he couldn't muster much interest. "That's fine."
He looked calm on the outside, but he was actually very happy inside, with a smile on his face, and he didn't even realize it.
The two of them lingered for a while before Xu Xian remembered something.
"I'm going to Belgium in a week to attend the HRD Derds awards ceremony. It's a five-day trip. You just wait for me at home."
The list of winners of the HRD Derds competition that she and Feng Nan had mentioned years ago was just announced yesterday. She was honored to have won the award for her entry, and this trip to Belgium was indispensable.
Jiang Shibai glanced at the date in the lower right corner of the computer screen, calculating the end date of the five-day trip in his mind, and a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes.
After a while, he twirled his fingertips and asked calmly, his tone indifferent and without any other emotion, "Does it have to be a five-day trip?"
The fifth day was his birthday, but the heartless girl really didn't care about him at all and didn't mention his birthday at all. She saw it clearly when they registered their marriage.
According to her schedule, the plane landed in Haishi on the second day of her birthday.
"Well, two days are wasted on the road. In addition to attending the ceremony, the remaining three days are spent viewing the exhibition of entries. It takes almost five days." Xu Xian seemed not to notice his awkward little mood and explained it to him in detail.
As she finished speaking, the corners of her lips curled up slightly, and she didn't dare to look at Jiang Shibai.
She had a good memory, so she naturally remembered the date she saw when registering for marriage, but it was obviously more fun to have a surprise on her birthday.
In fact, the original business trip plan was indeed five days, but if she left the conference early, she could steal some time and just catch the plane that landed in Hai City in the evening of the fifth day.
It doesn't delay her schedule and it also gives him a birthday surprise, which is the best of both worlds.
Jiang Shibai's breath hitched when he heard this, and after a moment's thought, he said, "Do I really have to see the exhibition? I remember the entries will be displayed on the official website, so it's not necessary to see them in person."
He had some knowledge of her field and had heard a little about the HRD Derds Design Competition. As far as he knew, the official website would also display pictures of the entries.
"There's still a difference between pictures and the real thing. It won't make a difference if I go there for a day or two." Xu Xian said slowly without changing his expression.
She acted so nonchalant as if she hadn't even remembered his birthday.
Seeing this, Jiang Shibai held her hand slightly tighter, pressed his thin lips into a straight line, and sulked alone.
His good boy really doesn't love him.
Seeing that he didn't say anything, Xu Xian blinked mischievously and asked knowingly, "Are you unhappy that I'm on a business trip?"
"No, I just feel that the business trip is too long and I will miss you." Jiang Shibai lowered his eyes to look at her, sighed in his heart, loosened his grip on her slender waist, rested his chin on her shoulder, and spoke in a calm tone.
If the cooperation with ST was not at a critical stage, he really couldn't leave and had to accompany her on the business trip.
He couldn't just tell Xu Xian directly that he wanted her to come back early to celebrate his birthday with him!
He seemed pretentious by rushing to give hints.
Besides, they can spend birthdays together for the rest of their lives. If they miss one, there will always be next time, but there is only one chance to participate in the exhibition.
He wants to be a considerate husband and support his sweetheart's career.
But Guaibao seemed indifferent to this day, which made him feel a little disappointed.
Xu Xian pretended not to hear his sullen voice, nuzzled his cheek affectionately, and coaxed him softly, "Just stay home and be good. I'll go out and make money to support you. The prize money for this competition is huge!"
The prize money for the hrd derds competition is higher than that of ordinary competitions, so she can get a lot of money this time.
Jiang Shibai: "..."
Does he look like someone who is short of money?
But he couldn't discourage the enthusiasm of his good boy.
"Okay, my wife, support me, and I'll wait for you to come back." Jiang Shibai restrained his outward emotions and asked her in her ear, "By the way, what award did you win?"
Xu Xian heaved a sigh of relief when she saw that the trick had passed. She was afraid that Jiang Shibai would tell her directly that the last day was his birthday.
If that were the case, wouldn't her surprise be half as great?
"I won the Gemstone Group, but unfortunately I didn't win the Best Designer award. It's a bit disappointing."
The competition is divided into three groups: diamond group, colored gemstone group, and accessories group. Each group has a champion, and the Best Designer Award is the highest honor of the competition, awarded to the designer with the best overall performance.
Although he did not win the Best Designer award, the championship in the Gem Group was equally valuable.
Her ability is not yet enough to compete with the real bigwigs in the industry, and her current achievements are a good start for her.
Jiang Shibai couldn't bear to see her disappointed, and praised her profusely, "Guaibao is the best. In my heart, even if Guaibao didn't win the award, he would still be the best jewelry designer in the world. Now that he has won the award, he is the best designer in the universe."
"Did you have candy in your mouth? Why are you talking so sweetly?" A smile flashed across Xu Xianying's eyes. Her well-proportioned, porcelain-white fingers lifted his chin, and her red lips slightly parted.
The woman's eyes are as charming as silk, and when you get close to her, the fragrance she brings with her makes people intoxicated.
Jiang Shibai obeyed her teasing, his sexy Adam's apple rolled lightly, and every word was blessed with desire, his voice was so gentle that it could drip water, "No, it's just that my dear has a sweet mouth, and it feels sweet after I kissed you."
As soon as he finished speaking, he pressed down without warning and gently rubbed her delicate lips.
"Jiang Shibai, I'm very curious, where did you learn those love words? One after another, endlessly." Xu Xian's red lips were stained with a trace of water, and each time they opened and closed was very seductive.
"You don't need to learn. Everything I say to you comes from my heart." Jiang Shibai's eyes dimmed slightly, but he didn't move.
It was almost time to get off work, but she was still not leaving the office. Others would inevitably make assumptions, which would make her feel embarrassed.
Xu Xian: “…”
How come she doesn't believe a word of it?
There might be some capable people giving him advice behind the scenes. He is really good at teasing people.
Xu Xian had already handed over her work. After leaving his office, she cleaned up her workstation and would not come to the company in the afternoon.
After making sure that nothing was missed, she took the last invitation left in her bag and went downstairs to the project management department to find Zeng Kai.
Ever since Jiang Shibai gave him flowers and gifts last time, the young man had given up on liking her.
Their subsequent work proceeded normally and their relationship was quite harmonious. He was one of the few colleagues she had a good relationship with in the company, except for the people in the secretarial office.
He recently started dating a girlfriend, and they are now just ordinary colleagues. There is nothing wrong with inviting him to the wedding.
Not long after she left, Jiang Shibai came out of the office and stood at the door of the secretary's office.
As soon as Tu Xue saw him looking around, she knew he was looking for Xianxian.
The next second, their eyes met. Tu Xue swallowed subconsciously and spoke bravely, "Boss Jiang, are you standing at the door with something to tell me?"
She knew he was here to look for someone, but she couldn't ask so abruptly!
"No."
"Then what are you doing?" Tu Xue was a little confused.
Why is the answer different from what she expected?
Shouldn’t I ask her where Xianxian went?
"To pick up my wife from get off work."
The people who were forced to eat dog food: "..."
You don't have to emphasize your identity all the time.
The office is just around the corner, so why bother waiting in person?
Besides, there are still more than ten minutes before the end of the working day. Why are you coming to pick me up so early?
