The Beloved and Pampered Girl-Chapter 843: : The Sickly Sweet Video
Chapter 843 -843: The Sickly Sweet Video
After work, Jian Dan, as usual, went back to Li Garden immediately because she needed to make up for the time spent apologizing to Uncle and to video call with him.
After dinner and a bath, she lay in bed waiting for Uncle to send her a video~
While bored, scrolling through videos~ she caught a glimpse of the time on her phone which was already past ten o’clock.
Usually, around this time, Uncle would have already sent her a video. Why hasn’t he sent one today?
Could it be that he’s very busy with work today?
Jian Dan thought about it, wanting to call Uncle, but just as her finger was about to press the dial button, she retracted it~
“If Uncle is busy, wouldn’t sending a video at this time disturb his work?
If Uncle wasn’t working, he would have definitely sent one~
Let’s just wait for Uncle to send me one!” Jian Dan muttered to herself.
Time ticked by; Jian Dan lay on the bed, her eyelids already heavy, yet she persisted~
Chu Liyuan had been busy since the afternoon, so busy he didn’t even have time to eat.
When he finally finished all his work and checked the time, his brow furrowed because it was already past one in the morning at Jian Jian’s.
He wondered whether he should send Jian Jian a video. If Jian Jian was already asleep, would his video wake her up?
But if he didn’t send it, what if Jian Jian was waiting for him? What then?
In the end, he decided to send it anyway. If it rang three times and Jian Jian didn’t answer, he would hang up!
What he didn’t expect was that the call was answered after just one ring.
Already drowsy, Jian Dan immediately pressed the answer button when her phone rang.
“Uncle~”
Seeing Jian Dan yawning in the video, Chu Liyuan’s heart inexplicably ached, “I’m sorry Jian Jian for sending you a video so late!”
“It’s okay, Uncle is working, right?” Jian Dan said with a smile, her voice free of any complaints.
“I should have taken the time to send you a video!”
“If Uncle could have spared the time, how he could not send me one?” Jian Dan knew Uncle must have been busy the whole day, “Besides, Uncle is working so hard for me and for the four little bundles’ daily expenses!”
Chu Liyuan felt indescribable sweetness in his heart at that moment.
“Uncle, did you have dinner?”
“I…”
“Think carefully before you answer! Don’t lie to me!”
How did this lass suddenly become so sharp?
“I’ll eat it in a bit!”
“I knew it!” Jian Dan pouted, looking dissatisfied at Chu Liyuan, “Uncle, you must eat on time in the future, or I will be angry!” Jian Dan said like a child.
Chu Liyuan’s smile curled up at the corners of his mouth, “Alright! I will eat on time!”
“That’s more like it,” Jian Dan nodded in satisfaction.
“Jian Jian, I might be quite busy these next few days. If I haven’t sent you a video by ten o’clock, don’t wait up for me. Go to rest early, alright? Otherwise, I will feel heartbroken!”
“Okay!” Jian Dan agreed so readily because she didn’t want Uncle to worry about having to send her a video every day amidst his busy work.
“Good girl~
Missing me?” came Chu Liyuan’s deep, magnetic voice.
“Not at all?” Jian Dan diverted her gaze, “I’m so busy every day now, how could I have time to miss you!” Even though on the inside she missed him terribly, she deliberately said otherwise.
Chu Liyuan’s smile widened, naturally knowing that Jian Jian was saying this on purpose, “If you have too much to do, delegate it to others. Don’t overwork yourself!”
“As if! My work capacity is very strong, okay!” It’s just that she seemed particularly useless in front of Uncle.
“Of course, my Jian Jian is capable. I just don’t want you to overwork yourself!”
When Jian Dan heard Uncle say he didn’t want her to work too hard, her heart felt inexplicably heavy.
Seeing the redness in Uncle’s eyes, she knew he must have been struggling these past few days, yet he was still worried about her.
“Okay! I got it!”
“It’s late now, you should go to sleep!” Chu Liyuan said, looking at Jian Jian.
“Alright! But I will only go to sleep after seeing Uncle finish his meal!”
“I will eat, it’s already very late. Jian Jian, you go to sleep first!”
“No way, I must see Uncle finish eating!” Jian Dan’s tone was serious and beyond dispute.
“Fine! I’ll eat now!” Chu Liyuan got up to go to the dining table…
Chu Liyuan knew that if he didn’t eat obediently, Jian Jian definitely wouldn’t go to sleep.
Jian Jian seemed easy to talk to but was actually very stubborn!
“Uncle, don’t eat so fast, it’s bad for the stomach! Slow! Slow! Down!” Jian Dan deliberately stretched out the last three words.
Chu Liyuan had wanted to eat quickly so Jian Jian could rest sooner, but now he could only…
