Chapter 1343: Chapter 1344: Early Morning Continuous Calls

Compared to him, Rong Yan picked the bed last night and went to sleep very late. She also didn’t sleep well this time, probably because she forgot to close the curtains last night. The glaring sunlight shone in, and just like a moth drawn to the light, she nestled into Li Shengxiao’s embrace, finding a comfortable position for herself, her hands clutching his sleepwear as if fearing her ‘sunshade’ would run off, even frowning in her sleep.

At this moment, he should be getting up to wash, bathe, change clothes, and prepare for breakfast, then start his day of work.

However, right now, the girl in his arms was surprisingly well-behaved, and his heart was unbelievably soft. For the first time in his life, Mr. Li thought about skipping work.

Unfortunately, someone always has to spoil the moment, and the phone in the lounge started ringing.

Rong Yan, having shifted places and not slept well, was immediately awakened by the noise. She let go of her grip and naturally rubbed her uncomfortable eyes, mumbling in a sticky voice, “What time is it? Did I oversleep?”

“It’s still early.”

Li Shengxiao stretched his arm over her waist, showing no intention of getting up, and said, “It’s just after seven, no need to get up so early. You sleep a bit more.”

“Ring ring ring…”

Rong Yan’s groggy senses were completely awakened by the noise, she opened her eyes, looking towards the bedside, “I hear the phone ringing, seems like there’s something urgent, aren’t you going to answer it?”

At this early hour, it couldn’t be anyone other than Gu Ming calling.

And Gu Ming wouldn’t likely call at half-past seven in the morning, knowing she was inside, unless it was something particularly urgent and important.

Therefore, it must be something extremely urgent and needing someone’s immediate attention!

The phone kept ringing persistently.

Rong Yan was completely awakened from her drowsiness, blinking her eyes as she urged, “Answer it quickly. I’m already awake. It’s so hot, I also want to get up and take a bath.”

Li Shengxiao frowned deeply, a shadow passing through his dark eyes, reluctantly letting go of the person in his embrace and getting up to answer the phone.

Rong Yan also took the opportunity to get up, taking her clothes and yawning into the bathroom.

The bathroom door closed.

Soon the sound of washing up could be heard.

The wonderful morning that could have been vanished into nothingness, leaving no one in a good mood. The dignified man picked up the receiver, his thin lips touched it unpleasantly, his voice sharp and merciless, “You better give me a satisfactory reason, otherwise the Middle East is short of someone to manage the oil affairs.”

Gu Ming braced himself and spoke, “I’m sorry, Mr. Li, I didn’t want to disturb your rest. But Madame Chu called the office, and I really didn’t know how to handle it, I had to call you.”

Madame Chu called the office…

Li Shengxiao’s expression suddenly turned grim, he hurriedly said, “Wait outside for me, I’ll be right out!”

“Shouldn’t I transfer it to you?”

No sooner had he said it than he realized his mistake, and immediately apologized, “Sorry, I forgot Miss Rong is at the company.”

Li Shengxiao snapped the phone down, hearing the sound of running water from the bathroom, he pressed his lips together, strode out with long steps, opening the lounge door first to leave.

Before leaving, he also closed the door behind him.

In the office, Gu Ming, who had come in early, was waiting for his instructions.

He walked over.

“Where’s the phone?”

“Here.”

Gu Ming, “The madame has been waiting for your call.”

Li Shengxiao’s face was dark as he walked over to take the call. His voice was like a cello, deep and stern, “Hello.”
