My CEO Husband Has Some Issues

Chapter 618: Chapter 618: Babbling Over The Phone While Supervising His Meal
 

Gu Ming had already guessed that Mr. Li wouldn’t change his schedule and respectfully bent down to take the day’s agenda, reading it out by the man’s side, “Mr. Li, your schedule for today is fully booked. At nine in the morning, you have an international financial exchange meeting, and at eleven, the mayor of Lin City has scheduled two hours with you. At one-thirty, business representatives from Ytaly Country want to meet with you to discuss the Ytaly financial zone. At four-thirty, Global Corporation under Li Group has a project that needs your finalization, and their people will be waiting for you in the office. Then at seven, there is the charity gala led by Li Group. At nine, you also have an invitation from Mr. Cui, who wishes for you to make time for a meal to discuss matters regarding the Kangfei Hospital’s venture into the Ytaly financial circle that you mentioned previously…”

He closed the schedule and said to Li Shengxiao, “Those are your appointments for today. Do you see anything that needs to be cut?”

He felt that the BOSS would likely want to make cuts.

As expected, after listening to the entire schedule report, the man furrowed his brow and instructed without hesitation, “I will not attend the charity gala at seven. Push back everything after seven o’clock. Tell Cui Jiangjing to come to me after one!”

Gu Ming thought for a moment. If Mr. Li had just finished his meeting with the mayor of Lin City at one o’clock and was set to meet the business delegation from Ytaly Country at one-thirty, that meant the only half-hour break in between was to be squeezed out for Mr. Cui. This would mean that Mr. Li did not plan to rest for the entire day again.

“Mr. Li, don’t you think this schedule might be too tight?”

He knew that Li Shengxiao had suffered from gastric bleeding last night and strongly disapproved of such a packed schedule.

Li Shengxiao, without lifting his head, said indifferently, “Do as I instructed!”

Despite his anxiety, Gu Ming had no choice but to lower his head and respond disheartenedly, “Yes.”

At this moment, Rong Yan came out with Little Baby, having washed his hands, and he heard their conversation. Curious, he interjected, “What instructions?”

Gu Ming stole a glance at Rong Yan, a spark of hope igniting in his heart, “I was reporting today’s schedule to Mr. Li. He has asked me to reschedule Mr. Cui’s dinner invitation from nine in the evening to sometime after one in the afternoon.”

Li Shengxiao’s dark, hawk-like eyes suddenly swept over him, causing Gu Ming’s back to break out in cold sweat.

“Oh,” Rong Yan paused for a moment and just as Gu Ming started to feel disappointed, thinking she wouldn’t ask further, Rong Yan continued, “So before one o’clock, has he left time to eat?”

“This…” Gu Ming stealthily glanced at the distinguished man and mustered the courage to say, “At noon, Mr. Li has a meeting with the mayor of Lin City. I’m not sure if there will be a meal arranged…”

“Gu Ming,” Li Shengxiao called his name in a tone that was mild.

Although the voice was calm, it somehow conveyed an intimidating effect.

Rong Yan now understood the situation and settled herself into a chair. Looking naturally at the man across the dining table, she said, “Li Shengxiao, I’ll call you during my lunch break, and we can have lunch together over the phone.”

Having lunch “over the phone” meant that she wouldn’t be there in person, but she wanted to ensure that he ate something and finished it.

Gu Ming kept his head low, trying to make himself as inconspicuous as possible.

Rong Yan, facing the man with furrowed brows, was not intimidated at all, and she threatened clearly, “If you don’t eat, I won’t eat either, which is perfect for my diet.”

The little one beside her, upon hearing her words, immediately put down his spoon with a spirit of shared animosity and said, “If mom doesn’t eat, Baby won’t eat either.”
