Nangong Yu: "I really am in a meeting."
Upon hearing this, Song Yuli paused for a moment, then said, "Then I'll wait for you to finish your meeting. Don't hang up the phone, I... want to hear your voice."
Nangong Yu pursed his lips, then softly hummed in agreement before putting his phone aside.
Because of Song Yuli, Nangong Yu had no desire to continue the meeting. He looked at everyone expressionlessly and then spoke coldly.
"Since you can't think of it during the meeting, then think about it after the meeting. Everyone should hand me a report by noon tomorrow. If you don't, then don't come to work tomorrow. Okay, meeting adjourned!"
After saying that, he stood up, picked up his phone, and strode away.
"Hello."
"Um."
Perhaps because it was the first time Song Yuli had heard Nangong Yu's oppressive tone, he was momentarily stunned.
Seeing that Song Yuli remained silent for a long time, Nangong Yu frowned slightly: "Didn't you say you had something to say to me? Go ahead and say it."
"Ah, oh."
Upon hearing this, Song Yuli on the other end of the phone secretly organized his thoughts, then took a deep breath and said, "Someone sent me a message last night about Lian Jingshan's car accident. I was asleep last night, so I only saw it this morning."
The hand tapping on the table paused slightly, and Nangong Yu gave a light "hmm" before falling silent.
Song Yuli bit her lip and said aggrievedly, "I'm sorry, I misunderstood you. Can you please not be angry? Can you please not ignore me?"
Hearing Song Yuli's soft, aggrieved voice, Nangong Yu sighed helplessly: "I'm not angry."
He paused for a moment, then continued, "I'm just in a bad mood."
"sorry."
Nangong Yu: "You don't need to apologize. If I were you, I would definitely have doubts too."
"..."
Perhaps the topic was too heavy, Nangong Yu quickly changed the subject: "Ahem, well, you have your exams coming up soon, right?"
Song Yuli: "Okay, tomorrow."
She pursed her lips and continued, "If you don't talk to me today, I might not be in the mood to take the exam tomorrow."
Nangong Yu: "..."
He tried to change the subject the first time, but somehow she brought it back up again.
Which school are you planning to apply to?
Without hesitation, Song Yuli replied, "Imperial Capital University."
After pausing, she continued, "My teacher said that my grades should be enough to reach the cutoff score in the capital, so she told me to give it a try."
Nangong Yu nodded: "Yeah, that's good. It's close to my home, so I'll feel at ease if you go to school there."
Song Yuli: "Mm."
Noticing Song Yuli's lack of interest, Nangong Yu softened his tone, coaxing someone for the first time in his life: "I'm not angry, so don't take it to heart. Focus on your exam preparation, okay?"
"Yes, I know."
Song Yuli nodded, then hesitated for a moment before asking, "After my exams are over, will you still come back to marry me?"
Without hesitation, Nangong Yu replied, "Of course."
Hearing Nangong Yu's decisive answer, Song Yuli finally smiled happily.
"Then you can continue the meeting, I need to study hard."
Nangong Yu was taken aback, then chuckled, but he still couldn't help but give him some instructions.
"Remember, don't put too much pressure on yourself. Don't be too nervous during the exam. Just treat it like a regular mock exam. Don't put too much pressure on yourself, okay?"
