The Billionaire's Priceless Darling: 33 Days of the CEO's Pursuit - Chapter 212 - Don't Reject Me So Quickly 5

Chu Shixiu’s dim eyes suddenly brightened. Without even looking, he answered the call, a joyful smile forming at the corner of his lips. Just as he was about to speak, Liang Nuannuan’s cheerful voice came through the phone.

“Shixiu, it’s me.”

His eyes, bright as stardust, dimmed once more.

It was Liang Nuannuan’s call, not hers…

After a few seconds of silence, Chu Shixiu smiled and said, “Nuannuan, have you eaten?”

“Waiting for you to treat me.” Liang Nuannuan giggled coquettishly on the other end, “I’ve booked a spot at Aer Hotel, giving you a chance to treat your fiancée to dinner.”

Fiancée.

His fiancée, the woman he would spend the rest of his life with.

“Nuannuan, something came up at Chu, and I have to work overtime.” Chu Shixiu pressed his brow gently, “I’ll accompany you next time, alright?”

“No.” Liang Nuannuan complained with a hint of frustration, “I’m just worried you’ll get sick from working day and night at the company.”

“When Chu gets through this crisis, I’ll make it up to you.” Chu Shixiu said softly, his brown eyes quietly gazing at the diamond ring on his ring finger.

The promise of marriage between him and Liang Nuannuan.

He and Gu Xiaoai had a child marriage, but it was merely a verbal promise from the adults back then. Between them… there wasn’t even an exchanged token.

“Forget it, if you don’t appreciate it, just keep busy.” Liang Nuannuan’s angry voice came through the phone, “I’ll eat alone!”

Liang Nuannuan was angry.

Liang Nuannuan had said she loved his gentle temperament the most. In high society, many young masters carried a sense of arrogance and superiority, but no one treated everyone with the same gentleness as he did.

So, whenever he didn’t agree to her requests, Liang Nuannuan would either act coy or get upset, always managing to persuade his good-natured self to agree.

This was the biggest difference between Liang Nuannuan and Gu Xiaoai.

Although Gu Xiaoai also had the arrogance of a wealthy lady, she never got angry easily.

She never argued with him, nor did she ever throw a tantrum.

Chu Shixiu glanced at the night view outside the window, and after a long pause, he smiled faintly and apologized, “Don’t be mad, I’ll have the driver come pick you up.”

“Mm. That’s my good husband. Bye-bye, see you in a bit.”

Liang Nuannuan turned her anger into joy, blowing him a kiss through the phone before happily hanging up.
