Chapter 224 Pingjiang



Looking back now, it's not hard to understand why Ji Xiangyang insisted he go home last night and repeatedly emphasized that he must marry Yao Qianyu.

It seems that it wasn't just Meng Jing who was whispering in his ear; Yao Qianyu probably waited for a long time at Yunxing and, after learning that he had already left work, she went to tease Meng Jing quite a bit.

Ji Fenghe's eyes narrowed slightly, his gaze filled with danger.

It seems that we can't continue to let things develop like this.

Meanwhile, in the conference room on the top floor of the Yunxing Group building.

The man's gaze swept over everyone, his eyes sharp as knives, and the atmosphere in the conference room instantly became extremely tense.

"So many people and they can't even come up with a single solution?"

The people sitting in the meeting room were extremely uncomfortable, nervously wiping the cold sweat from their foreheads.

God knows how agonizing that meeting was for them.

This meeting wasn't originally scheduled for today, but it was convened at the last minute because a project ran into problems.

Proposing solutions and suggestions for problems, as well as specific work plans, is indeed within their departmental responsibilities. However, they did not expect Chu Xing to ask them to provide specific plans and solutions in this meeting.

How could they possibly do that?

This matter has only just occurred, and even if they could offer some solutions, they couldn't possibly come up with them immediately.

The man seemed to have taken some kind of wrong medicine; the atmosphere in the meeting room was incredibly tense.

The man glanced at everyone, and seeing that no one spoke, he picked up a stack of documents and casually threw them in front of the planning department manager.

"Go back and think carefully about what you should do. I need to see the plan before I leave work."

Upon hearing this, everyone's faces turned ashen.

Handing it in before leaving get off work? Isn't that killing them?

Even when I was urged to submit my proposal in a hurry, I always submitted it today.

Now they've shortened it to before the end of the workday, which means they don't even have the chance to work overtime.

But how could we possibly finish it like that?

Meeting adjourned!

The man strode away first.

As soon as he left, everyone looked worried and gloomy.

"What's wrong with Master Yun this time? Why does he suddenly want the proposal submitted before the end of the workday?"

"Perhaps it's because of an unexpected project or a bad mood, or perhaps it's because of relationship problems."

"I think it's more likely the latter. When has this guy ever gotten this angry about work?"

The office door slammed shut with a bang, and the man's face was ashen.

Not only the others, but even Assistant Lu was unaware of what had happened.

I wanted to ask but didn't dare. Keeping a question bottled up inside was almost causing me internal injury.

After a long pause, the man finally spoke:

"Go check on the monsoon and get me the detailed information as soon as possible."

Assistant Lu was taken aback:

"You mean Manager Ji?"

"Um."

Assistant Lu was full of questions, wondering what Manager Ji had done to offend him.

But seeing the man's expression, he didn't dare to ask and could only agree to do it quickly.

That afternoon, the project that Song Mai was in charge of was officially launched, and Song Mai was so busy that she barely had time to rest.

She was either traveling around with the project team or organizing the documents needed for the project, and even she felt overwhelmed.

In the following days, she rarely went back to the company, and Chu Xing was also busy. Although the two lived in the same building, they hardly saw each other.

Fortunately, this project wasn't a big one, and it was short-lived, lasting only a little over a week.

During this week, Song Mailian worked overtime at the company on Saturday and Sunday, while Chu Xing was away on a business trip, so neither of them was at home.

Before going on his business trip, Chu Xing had specifically promised his grandfather about his parents' plans. Just when he was worried that they might make some big moves after being quiet for so long, his grandfather gave him some good news.

Their leave expired, and they've already left.

Hearing this news, Chu Xing finally breathed a sigh of relief and felt more at ease on his business trip.

During this time, he was also planning to tell her everything, but the two of them were too busy to talk. He made up his mind that he would tell her everything once this period was over.

The project was finally coming to an end on Friday of the second week, and Song Mai and the project team arrived in Pingjiang City the night before.

Pingjiang City is an extremely ancient city, not far from Nandu. Since the people from the Western Cooperation Company had never been there before, and the project was about to end, they went to Pingjiang City for the last two days on the recommendation of the Yunxing project team leader.

They had originally planned to spend a few days in Pingjiang City before officially signing the contract when they returned to Nandu next Monday.

But suddenly, news came from the Western headquarters that they should return ahead of schedule.

Therefore, the originally scheduled signing time had to be moved to Saturday morning.

Therefore, Song Mai and others had no choice but to rush to Pingjiang City on Friday night.

As soon as Song Mai got off the bus, he was amazed by the bustling atmosphere of Pingjiang City.

With Christmas just around the corner, the streets and alleys are already filled with pumpkin lanterns, and many vendors are selling trinkets like "peace apples".

People strolled leisurely along the pedestrian street, without rushing or looking anxious.

Everyone has a sense of slow pace.

Although Pingjiang City is only a two or three-hour drive from Nandu, Song Mai has never been there.

I had only read online that Pingjiang City had no nightlife before, but now it seems that it is not like that. It is lively but not noisy. On the contrary, it has an orderly and relaxed atmosphere, making people feel no chill of winter wind. Instead, it is very comfortable.

The hotel booked by the Western Cooperation Company was in the city center, and the project team also stayed at the same hotel for convenience in signing the contract the next day.

It was 9 p.m. at the time.

Everyone was tired from the long journey, so after checking into the hotel, they went back to their rooms to rest.

Just as Song Mai finished showering and was about to lie down, she suddenly felt a bloating in her lower abdomen, followed by a warm sensation in her lower body and a surge of heat.

It seems that being busy day and night lately has disrupted my menstrual cycle, and this time it came many days early.

I rummaged through my bag and remembered that the sanitary napkins I had brought were in my office drawer.

Song Mai changed her clothes and prepared to go to the nearby convenience store.

As it got later and the temperature dropped sharply, Song Mai wanted to buy the items quickly and get back to the hotel, so she only put on a down jacket over her pajamas before going out.

As soon as she pushed open the hotel door, a cold wind rushed in through her trouser legs and cuffs. Her thin pajamas were no match for the damp chill, and she couldn't help but shiver.

It took her a lot of effort to open the hotel door completely; the cold wind seemed to be wrestling with her through the door.

Song Mai looked around and thankfully the convenience store wasn't too far away.

She wrapped her down jacket tighter and walked quickly past several upscale KTVs and bars before entering a 24-hour convenience store.
