Gu Nianshen felt confused .

He was the one who had bought Lin Yiqian those purses . Why would she thank the dimwit who only knew how to sing?

“Did you just get home?” Gu Nianshen changed the topic .

“Yes . ”

After chatting with Lin Yiqian for a while, he no longer felt sleepy . He now sat up against the bed frame as he turned on the lamps next to him .

In the brightly lit room, he continued to speak to Lin Yiqian on the phone while he reached for his laptop next to his bed .

As the screen lit up, he could see a picture of the girl on the screen . A warm smile appeared on his face .

Using his thumb, he gently caressed the face of the girl in the picture on his laptop screen .

'Dummy, do you miss me?' Gu Nianshen wondered as he softly tapped the girl in the picture on her forehead .

He loved her very much .

When Lin Yiqian realized that Gu Nianshen was silent for a long time, she thought he had fallen asleep . “Gu Nianshen, are you asleep?”

As she was speaking very softly and carefully, her voice sounded very tender and soothing .

“No,” Gu Nianshen hurriedly replied for fear that she might hang up .

Although they had only been on the call for less than two minutes, Lin Yiqian felt her heart filling up with joy .

“Oh . ” Lin Yiqian smiled .

They both remained silent for some time .

Realizing that Gu Nianshen had been on the go the entire day, she thought that he must be very exhausted .

“Continue sleeping . I will take a shower and sleep as well,” Lin Yiqian said, reluctantly .

As soon as she mentioned going to bed, she began yawning .

“You work over ten hours each day and yet can't afford to buy a purse . You embarra.s.s me,” Gu Nianshen remarked sarcastically when he heard her yawning .

Lin Yiqian was used to his sarcasm .

“As long as I am Mrs . Gu, there won't be any embarra.s.sment,” she claimed proudly .

Her ident.i.ty as Gu Nianshen's wife was like a brand of its own . Anybody would admire her for that .

As soon as she finished her sentence, she hung up and got up to take a shower .

'As long as I am Mrs . Gu, there won't be any embarra.s.sment…' Gu Nianshen repeated the sentence in his head .

He could not stop thinking about what she had said although she had only casually mentioned .

Gu Nianshen wished that he could fly home to her immediately so that they could continue their intimate interactions from the night before .

The more he thought about it, the stronger the urge became .

He picked up his phone yet again to send his a.s.sistant a text message . “Try to arrange all meetings to fit in one day, that is for tomorrow . ”

If Lin Yiqian was not in the same city as he was, he did not want to stay there for too long .

In the morning, Lin Yiqian kept herself busy in the office .

She barely had time to take a sip of water . When she finally found an opportunity to pick up her mug of coffee, somebody knocked on the door to her office .

It was the manager of the 'Marketing' department, a young employee whom Lin Yiqian hired right after she had taken over the company .

Lin Yiqian emptied the content of the mug before placing the mug down on the table .

The marketing manager approached Lin Yiqian with a concerned expression on his face . “There's been a sudden change in circ.u.mstances at Yanbei Square . Somebody wants to compete with us . ”

Lin Yiqian frowned slightly when she heard what he said . “Who's our compet.i.tor?”

Yanbei Square was a shopping mall that would soon be opened . It was located at the busiest spot in the city . Every city within the country would have one .

In fact, it was one of the most visited brands of shopping malls in each city in the country .

Only top-notch brands would be able to operate stores within such a renowned shopping mall . However, there were several lesser-known brands that had been trying to compete for operating permits in the mall .
