Once Upon A One Night Stand novel Chapter 11

After sending Ling Junze off, Li Han had a meeting at ten in the morning. He glanced at the time and called his secretary, Zhang Bikun, "change the ten o' clock meeting to a video conference. I can't rush over right now. Send the conference documents to my email address."

Zhang Bikun was surprised but immediately sent the documents over. He hung up the phone and informed the attendees one by one. Occasionally, someone whispered in the spacious and bright conference room, "Why did it suddenly become a video conference?"

"Maybe Boss Li is on a business trip."

Zhang Bikun was speechless. Boss Li has never been late or absent from work. He arrived at work at 8: 30 every day for years. Today he unexpectedly missed a meeting.

Li Han was having a meeting in the study room, and he would pay attention to the time below the screen every once in a while. He did not forget Ling Junze's instructions to change the bottle an hour later.

"Alright, today's meeting is over. If you have any questions, you can come to me later," after a brief summary, Li Han ended the meeting, turned off the camera, and called Zhang Bikun in private, "When will the company recruit in the fall?"

Zhang Bikun didn't expect him to suddenly ask this and flipped through the manual, "It's almost time. The thirteenth of this month. That is the day after tomorrow."

Every year, the Hanyi would recruit two batches of new workers from the school and society. They were all elites in the industry or "diamonds in the rough". The application requirements are harsh, but there will still be thousands of resumes. After all kinds of assessments, only five people will be recruited in the end.

"Add someone in."

Zhang Bikun was even more surprised. Back then, a senior executive of Hanyi added his own relatives to the company and was fired directly after Li Han found out about it. Now...

Zhang Bikun wiped the sweat from his forehead and felt that the world was already mysterious, "Boss Li, go ahead."

"Shu Tian."

...

When Shu Tian woke up, it was already past one in the afternoon. She opened her eyes and took a moment to slowly sit up from the bed. She took the phone from the bedside table and was slightly stunned.

She slept so long?

She looked down at the white tape on the back of her hand and the cold medicine on the side. She finally understood her current situation and remembered Li Han's urging this morning.

Her gaze fell on the empty seat beside her. Shu Tian got out of bed and put on her slippers. After washing up, she went downstairs quietly. The first floor was empty as well. She called out tentatively, "Li Han?"

After waiting for a while, no one answered. Did he go out?

Shu Tian heaved a sigh of relief, but suddenly stopped in her tracks when she turned around.

The man was dressed casually as he stood on the stairs behind her. His arms crossed in front of his chest, and he looked at her calmly.

Shu Tian rubbed her nose awkwardly and smiled awkwardly, "You're home ..."

"You're disappointed that I'm at home," it's not a question, but a statement.

Her reaction has already fallen into Li Han's eyes. She was relieved when she thought that no one was around, and she was too surprised to cover up when she turned around.

Shu Tian stood stiffly in the same spot. Obviously, she had not thought about how to calmly stay under the same roof with the man in front of him.
