Chapter 1248: Chapter 1248: Feeling So Useless!
As everyone focused their attention on Chu Liyuan and the crisis at Qin Corporation, not only Jian Dan, but even Xi Rui failed to notice that Jiang Xue’er’s way of addressing Chu Liyuan had changed.
“Jian, then you…” Even Xi Rui seemed to agree with what Jiang Xue’er had said.
After all, since the establishment of Qin Corporation, such a serious crisis had never occurred, and Chu Liyuan must be at his wits’ end right now.
Jian Dan struggled for a while, tears streaming down her face~at a time like this, she really shouldn’t trouble Uncle Zhang further.
Jian Dan didn’t go to the company and returned home early. Once home, she sat on the sofa, her gaze fixated on the direction of the door…
She waited a long, long time until the sky had darkened, but Uncle Zhang still hadn’t come home.
Jian Dan’s face was full of worry, and she was constantly torn over whether she should go to the Qin Corporation to find Uncle Zhang.
She had never felt this torn before in her whole life.
While Jian Dan was struggling with her thoughts, her cellphone WeChat notification beeped: Jian Jian, there are some issues to deal with at the company tonight, and I might return home late. Don’t wait up for me and sleep early! Love you!
Seeing the WeChat message from Chu Liyuan, Jian Dan’s eyes moistened once again; even in such times, Uncle Zhang was still considering her.
Jian Dan couldn’t help but feel a little bit of resentment towards herself. It was bad enough that she was always causing trouble for Uncle Zhang, but at such a critical moment, she couldn’t even offer any help.
Chu Liyuan, who had not received a reply from Jian Jian, felt somewhat uneasy: Jian Jian, are you asleep?
Seeing that Uncle Zhang had sent another WeChat message, she knew that he was doing it deliberately, just trying to probe whether she was aware of the situation.
To prevent Uncle Zhang from being distracted by her, she replied with a WeChat message: Uncle Zhang, you naughty man, it’s so late and you’re still not home. I was asleep, but you woke me up with the noise.
Seeing the reply from Jian Jian, Chu Liyuan’s mind finally settled a bit: My mistake, Jian Jian. Go to sleep early. Leave to you the right to hold me accountable afterwards!
As Jian Dan read the message from Uncle Zhang, her tears broke through: Okay!
When she sent this last message, Jian Dan’s hand was shaking, and then she laid on the couch, clutching her cellphone, arms covering her eyes, crying endlessly.
Jin and Uncle Zhang, seeing Jian Dan like this, were very worried but did not know how to comfort her.
Jiang Xue’er stood in the corner of the second floor, eyes filled with laughter as she watched Jian Dan, then turned back to her room…
After returning to her room, she poured herself a glass of red wine, stood on the balcony with a smirk on her lips. Under the moonlight, she looked somewhat creepy, “Jian Dan, Jian Dan! I really overestimated you before, I didn’t expect you to be so useless, unable to help even a little bit.
If that’s the case, then I’m sorry, but I’ll be taking Mrs. Chu’s position in your stead!”
Jian Dan didn’t sleep at all that night, sitting on the couch the whole time, her eyes swollen like two walnuts from crying so much.
“Jian, you didn’t possibly stay up all night, did you?” Xi Rui got a shock when she saw Jian Dan’s condition first thing in the morning.
Eyes devoid of spirit, lips pale, and dark circles under the eyes almost darker than those of the pandas at the zoo.
“Jian~Jian~” No matter what Xi Rui said to Jian Dan, Jian Dan seemed not to hear and kept staring in one direction, dazed.
In the end, Xi Rui had no choice but to call Chu Liyuan.
As soon as Chu Liyuan received the call, he rushed back immediately.
“Jian Jian~” Chu Liyuan squatted in front of Jian Dan by the couch.
“Uncle Zhang, why are you back? You should hurry back to the company! I’m fine!”
“Jian Jian, you already know? Don’t worry, there will be no problems!”
At this point, Uncle Zhang was still comforting her!
Jian Dan’s tears started flowing again~
Jian Dan also hated herself, at such a time, all she could do was cry!
“Maybe I can help!” Jiang Xue’er said slowly, coming down from upstairs at that moment.
Everyone in the living room turned their gaze toward Jiang Xue’er.
