Seeing the blush on my face, Theo smiled. He lowered his gaze and said, "We've been husband and wife for a long time now, yet you still get shy."
I coughed a few times to ease my embarrassment and then said in a slightly uncomfortable tone, "We’re an old couple, so you shouldn’t play these kinds of tricks that young people do."
I crossed my arms across my chest and straightened my back. Out of the corner of my eye, I caught a glimpse of him looking at me with raised brows from time to time. This untouchable, domineering president was really throwing his image away.
"Okay, okay, let's get down to business. Be honest. Do you think it's feasible?" I looked at him seriously, hoping he could give some constructive suggestions.
Theo tapped the pen on his hand table. His deep eyes shifted around a few times as if he was thinking. After a while, he said slowly, "There are many new small and medium-sized companies in recent years that focus on cross-border e-commerce. It’s been quite saturated until now, but it’s still profitable, depending on how you do it.”
I did not register whatever he said before and only heard that it was profitable. I blinked. "That can be done. I’ll plan things out with Shannon. Apart from the original cross-border idea, we can also come up with something else that may be the icing on the cake.
"Thank you. I have to discuss this with Shannon immediately." After saying that, I wasted no more time in the study. I turned around and walked out the door.
Theo's dissatisfied voice sounded from behind me. "You’re just going to leave like this? How practical."
I did not respond to him but went straight into my room and called Shannon.
"Hehe, you couldn’t wait to call me after leaving the hospital today?" Shannon seemed to be eating something, and her voice sounded a little muffled. Her voice was a little vague.
This food goblin!
I pursed my lips. "You haven't forgotten our agreement, have you?"
"Of course not. Why don’t you rest a little more? You’ve just been discharged from the hospital. You haven't rested enough yet."
"It's not that soon. I just wanted to let you know that I’ve asked Theo. He supports us in the cross-border industry. How about you?"
