Chapter 7 Send her back to school
The Chen family's home was only two blocks from Peking University. The journey, which should have taken five minutes, ended in traffic jam halfway through.
The car waited for a long time before moving one or two meters.
Lin Shutang glanced at her phone screen and saw that she had been stuck in traffic for nearly twenty minutes. She felt anxious because she had agreed to meet with her teacher at two o'clock this afternoon to discuss her thesis, and now the time was almost up.
He glanced at the people in the back seat through the rearview mirror again. They were still resting with their eyes closed, looking calm and relaxed.
Lin Shutang was puzzled. Aren't company bosses very busy? How could he still sleep?
Just as I was thinking this, I saw the people in the back row open their eyes.
Maybe it was because of the angle, but Lin Shutang always felt that their eyes met in the rearview mirror.
The feeling of being caught peeking suddenly came to his mind, and Lin Shutang quickly withdrew his gaze, tilted his head against the window, and pretended to be looking out the window.
"Go down and see what's going on?"
"yes."
It was raining outside. The moment the assistant opened the car door, Lin Shutang felt a cold air sweeping in. He couldn't help but shiver and pulled his coat.
The car door closed, leaving only the two of them in the enclosed space. Apart from the faint sound of rain outside, the only sound was the two of them breathing lightly.
Lin Shutang only felt that the air became thinner, and he looked out the window more frequently.
Just as she was wondering when her assistant would come back, she felt a warm breeze blowing against her legs.
She looked up and saw from the rearview mirror that Li Yansheng had not yet taken his hand away from the screen after turning on the air conditioner.
"The meeting has been delayed... let's see... send me the plan first, okay." The man's solid voice sounded, and he was talking about work matters with the person on the other end of the phone.
The moment the call was hung up, Lin Shutang's phone rang with a message alert. It was from Mr. Chen.
Today's trial class was very successful, and it was decided that she would continue to give Chen Runling tutoring, one class every night from Monday to Friday, one class on Saturday morning, and a rest on Sunday.
Mr. Chen sent a contract. "Ms. Lin, this is the contract. You can take a look at it first. If there are no problems, we will sign the contract next Monday and start classes as usual. Of course, if you have any questions, you can also tell me."
The contract was not complicated and the content was not too much. Lin Shutang took a careful look at it and found no problems.
No problem, Mr. Chen. I'll be there on time next Monday night.
Li Yansheng was looking through the plan on the tablet, and out of the corner of his eye he noticed the girl lowering her head to reply to the message, her fingers holding the phone were long and white.
As he moved, a few strands of hair fell, highlighting the paleness of his face. However, he no longer had the lifeless feeling he had before, but rather a touch of life.
The assistant came back to the car from outside, and one of his sleeves was wet from the rain.
"Boss, there was a car accident up ahead. Someone just came to fix it. Now you can pass normally."
Hearing this, Lin Shutang looked up and saw that the car in front had indeed started to move.
The assistant started the car: "Ms. Lin, you are going back to school now, right?"
"Yes, Gate 3, about 500 meters ahead where the U-turn is."
"OK."
Then, the car became quiet again.
This was mostly the case in the past. Unless we were talking about work, all the driving was basically quiet.
But, didn't the boss get Ms. Lin's contact information at the hospital? He should have contacted Ms. Lin! Why are they still like this? Any two people on the street would know each other better than they do! What is the boss's attitude towards Ms. Lin?
