"You really won't wait for her to wake up?" Gu Jinyang's voice rang as his gaze focused on the man by the door.
Yu Chen was already dressed. He was wearing a jet-black suit, looking gorgeously perfect as always. He glanced upstairs, seemingly contemplating, but in the end, he turned towards Gu Jinyang and then strode out of the house.
"I need to leave early so I can come back early. That's better than coming home when she's already asleep, no?" Yu Chen's tone was decisive and what he said made Gu Jinyang chuckle behind him.
"Well, that's indeed amazingly reasonable."
When the two stood by the car, Yu Chen turned towards the butler and the guards that would be staying in the house.
"I'll leave them to you," he said in an authoritative voice. A hint of warning was evident in his tone, and everyone understood what he meant.
"Rest assured, young master. We will do our best to serve them and take care of them while you are away." The old butler assured, and Yu Chen nodded.
"If she wants to go out, have Guan Ye go with her." Yu Chen added, and he finally entered the car.
The trip was silent. Yu Chen had canceled important appointments and meetings yesterday because of Luo Xiaolei so he needed to go back to his office and do the work that was waiting for him.
"Mr. Zhang took your cancellation as a sign that you have lost interest. He said he was insulted and that the talk about your partnership is over." The serious talk had started. The project that Yu Chen and Mr. Zhang, the CEO of the country's largest entertainment industry, was aiming for was worth billions. It was one of the bigger projects which Yu Chen was working on, so this matter was absolutely a problem. Just like most of the powerful personalities in the upper society, it looked like this Mr. Zhang hated to be treated as someone less special by anyone.
Moreover, Yu Chen seemed to be the first to ever treat the veteran and powerful CEO like this without even a single word of explanation. "So? What are we gonna do about this?"
Yu Chen was still quiet, resting his chin on his knuckles but after a moment, a wicked, dangerous smile carved on his face. "Mr. Zhang is brave." He simply muttered and then he raised his hand. Gu Jinyang immediately gave him his tablet and without wasting a single second, the man quickly scanned some documents on it.
After some minutes, he handed the tablet to the young man in front. "Jiang Min, check this out, now."
"Yes boss."
As the young man in glasses quickly started his task, the car was silent again. Gu Jinyang didn't talk anymore since he already knew that the matter was already solved. He could only predict that later today, Mr. Zhang will come begging, wishing he had never crossed the devil in the first place.
In no time, Yu Chen and his men finally arrived at his office. Unexpectedly, Old man Yu was there, sitting like a boss on Yu Chen's chair.
The moment old man Yu saw his grandson, his lips curved up in an excited smile.
"Grandson, I've been waiting for you. I came today because I wanted us to go and visit your fiancée. I want to meet my future granddaughter-in-law personally." The old man didn't waste a moment beating around the bush. He moved closer to him, looking like he was ready to drag Yu Chen out if he said 'no'.
"Chairman Yu, I have lots to deal with today." Yu Chen walked past the old man towards his desk as he spoke, causing old man Yu to flare in anger. He slammed his hand on the smooth and dark desk as he glared at his grandson, who already sat leisurely on his chair.
"You punk! You finally found someone you like, so forget about work for once and at least have a day with her! Go on a date with her and then invite her home!" The old man's deep voice was loud. Despite his age, he still roared like a lion when he was angry.
However, as soon as Yu Chen replied, it was as if a bucket of icy water was instantly poured over his blazing anger, cooling him down.
"I took a day off yesterday. We already went on a date, and she's now living in my house." Yu Chen said, and a silence filled with disbelief wrapped around the old man's entire being. He gazed at Yu Chen and then he turned towards Gu Jinyang. When Gu Jinyang nodded at him, confirming Yu Chen's statement, the old man was ecstatic.
"Oho… as expected with my grandson. Good job, no, great job, my grandson, great job. You made your old man happy today."
While old man Yu was almost dancing in bliss because of the unbelievable news he just heard, Yu Chen already started working, ignoring the old man's presence completely.
But the moment the old man snapped out of his reverie and saw that Yu Chen was already working intensely as always, the old man looked amazingly displeased. Once again, he slammed his palm on Yu Chen's desk.
"So, something already happened right?!" the old man asked, grinning in utter happiness. But Yu Chen just looked blankly at him.
"Something?" he uttered, seemingly uninterested.
"You two already started making my great grandchild last night, right?!"
Yu Chen was speechless and then without a word, he simply returned his gaze on the documents in his hand.
Looking at his reaction, the old man blazed again.
"You punk, so you didn't do anything even though you already brought her home?!"
Still, Yu Chen didn't speak. He was calm as ever, unaffected by his grandfather's ranting.
When the old man calmed down, he took a deep breath and then stared at his grandson with a serious, authoritative gaze.
"Okay, go home. I'll take over your position. You have worked nonstop for so long that you turned into a workaholic devil. It's time for you to take your rest and spend more time with your fiancée. It's time for you to focus on your relationship for now. So pack up and go back home. Go and be with her all day, all night. I'll go call an emergency meeting and declare that I'll take over as the temporary CEO today." He stated and then before Yu Chen could react, he left, leaving everyone, especially Yu Chen, silenced in utter disbelief as they all looked at the office door closing on them.
