It is probably intimidated by the presence of such an authority as Mrs. Shen. When Jing Yan returned upstairs after making the call, Shen Ruochu really didn't sleep obediently.

She sat on her knees half-leaning at the head of the bed, book in hand, muttering to pieces. Hearing the muffled noise in the bedroom, he glanced up, and saw that it was Jing Yan who entered the door, and immediately laughed like a treasure, "I'm telling a story to the baby!" ”

Jing Yan asked cooperatively, "What are you talking about?" As he spoke, he took off his coat and walked to the edge of the bed and sat down next to her, reaching out and pulling the book from her hand. The paper is slightly yellowed, and the binding and printing are not the kind that are popular for books now, but they are still quite delicate. He didn't read the text inside, just took a cursory look at it, and finally stared at the name on the cover and couldn't help frowning, "The Count of Monte Cristo...... At the beginning, are you sure that reading this is conducive to prenatal education? ”

"It shouldn't be a problem." Shen Ruochu blinked, "Anyway, this is also a book in the bookstore that is classified as a world famous book." ”

"Even world classics are not suitable for all ages."

"But I loved listening to it when I was a kid!" Shen Ruochu was very unimpressed with his arguments.

"Can you understand? How old were you then? ”

"Yes! How can't you? I was about four years old. My mom didn't have time to take me, my brother took me. At first, he thought I was noisy, so he read to me. Later, I became addicted to it, and he had to read it to me every day! If you don't read it, I'll cry! ”

Jing Yan rarely heard her mention her childhood. A touch of softness crept up in his heart, and he instantly sketched in his mind the picture of a pink and tender little girl with pigtails, sitting on the bed, looking up and waiting for her brother to tell him a story. However, the next second, I suddenly felt that something was wrong. He looked at her thoughtfully, and after a few seconds of silence, he shook the book in his hand and asked softly, "What else did your brother read to you besides this one?" ”

"That's a lot. The vernacular books of "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" and "Three Words and Two Beats", as well as "Anna Karenina" and "One Thousand and One Nights", well...... It's a lot, anyway, it's on my dad's bookshelf, we can move it as we please, and he read it to me. Some of them were translated by my dad after he brought them back from abroad. ”

Revenge, violence, third-party involvement, and...... Banned. It includes ancient and modern, Chinese and foreign, and may also be an uncut version that his father-in-law found. Jing Yan clenched the book tightly with her fingertips, and suddenly felt a faint pain in her temples. Isn't a four- or five-year-old girl supposed to hold a doll quietly and read nursery rhymes?! Is Shen Ruochu's education method too unique, or is he outdated and can't keep up with the situation in this world?!

He took a deep breath, and when his surging mood calmed down a little, he suddenly remembered something, "Ruochu, why do you like to listen to your brother read "Romance of the Three Kingdoms"? That's the kind of story that boys will like more. ”

"Because Zhou Yu is handsome!" Shen Ruochu's answers are always so unexpected.

Jing Yan raised her eyebrows slightly, only feeling magical, "Where did you see that Zhou Yu was handsome?" ”

"It's not for looking. It's a feeling. Girl's feeling! You men don't understand! ”

"I really don't understand." Jing Yan spit out four words lightly, and a hint of relief flashed in her deep eyes. Really...... The focus in Shen Ruochu's head is always different from others. But at this moment, he would rather her go to YY as a historical figure than that she was really affected by those things that should not be touched since she was a child.

"Don't read this to your children in the future." He threw the book aside, "The content of the abridged version suitable for children is too fake, and some of the connotations of the original book will be imperceptibly imperceptible to children." I just want our baby to be carefree in its childhood. Whether it's a lie, or the ugliness of human nature, I don't want it to come into contact too soon. ”

Shen Ruochu felt that his argument was really a bit up-and-com, but he just flattened his mouth and did not refute it. I touched my stomach and went to find other entertainment.

Jing Yan doesn't often stay here after all. Even if he accompanies his wife back to his parents' house, he will be a little restrained.

Shen Ruochu had his own mother whispering in his ear, and he didn't dare to be so casual and presumptuous as if he was in his own home. Snacks are halved, and late-night snacks are not eaten. At 8 o'clock, I watched a TV series with my mother for a while, washed up at 9 o'clock, and went to bed on time at 10 o'clock. Regularly like a student living on campus.

For this state, Jing Yan is naturally happy to see it. And very much in line with her rhythm, she also went to bed with the lights off, and those official and private matters, some of which were not put aside, were temporarily put aside.

It's just that in the end it runs such a big business. It's okay to have something, and many times it's not up to him to have the final say.

In the middle of the night, the two who were sleeping in each other's arms were woken up by an extraordinarily abrupt mobile phone ringtone.

Jing Yan's vigilance was high, and he came to his senses in an instant. While reaching out to touch the phone, he patted the half-asleep pregnant woman in his arms to comfort him. But by the time he answered the phone and listened to what had just been said, he was no longer in the mood to care about anything else.

Shen Ruochu was also completely energetic at this time. It seems that he senses that the emotions of the people around him are not quite right, and he begins to be a little nervous for some reason.

Jing Yan didn't speak much, most of them were people over there. There was silence in the middle of the night, and the sound in the earpiece was faintly audible. She pricked up her ears, but she also listened to the general situation. When he hung up the phone, he immediately asked, "What's wrong?" When did you also have a business in Zimbabwe? ”

"It's been there for a long time." Jing Yan avoided the important and trivialized, and his words were unknown. After saying that, let go of her and turned on the wall lamp. Then one hand quickly put clothes on her body, and with the other hand, she took out her mobile phone and dialed the secretary, explaining that she notified several senior executives to go to the company for an emergency meeting overnight.

Shen Ruochu turned over and sat up, not bothering him. Big eyes rolled around, silently watching him go about his work.

In less than a minute, Jing Yan was already dressed and ready to go. He glanced at the person on the bed, and just happened to bump into Shen Ruochu opening his mouth and yawning. Leaned over and kissed her forehead, and whispered, "You go to sleep." Wait for me to pick you up tomorrow. ”

"Hmm." Shen Ruochu narrowed his eyes and nodded, "Don't be too anxious." The body matters. ”

"Got it." Jing Yan pecked her lips again, and then got up to leave.

There was no footsteps outside the door, so he probably deliberately slowed his steps. Even the security door downstairs didn't make any noise. But Shen Ruochu knew that Jing Yan had already left this room.

She sighed, lay back on her bed, and turned off the light. Looking at the darkness of the room, there was no sleepiness anymore.

…………

Shen Ruochu has insomnia at home here, and Jing Yan has already started to get busy over there.

When he started the car, he dialed back the number he had just called. While driving, I wore headphones and learned more about the situation with the other party. Hurried to the company, and several other high-level executives also arrived. Several backbones of the general manager's office were also brought in late at night to work overtime, and they were working non-stop at this time.

The people in the small conference room were whispering, wondering what was going on in the middle of the night when they were called to the company. When the big boss entered the door, he immediately became much quieter.

"Who hasn't arrived?" Jing Yan asked, striding to his place and sitting down.

"Vice President Li hasn't arrived." Someone replied.

Jing Yan raised her hand and glanced at her watch, "Li Weihua is far away, don't wait for him." Let's start ...... first," he said, and cut straight to the point, "Just now the person in charge of Zimbabwe called, a coal mine invested and developed by the group over there has been damaged and collapsed......"

Zimbabwe, a small landlocked country in southern Africa, is small in size, but it is rich in mineral resources. As early as when Jing Yan had not yet shifted the focus of his business back to China, he had already invested in many mineral deposits there.

Coal mines are just one of them.

It stands to reason that if there is coal digging, there must be landslides. This kind of thing is also handled by the person in charge of the local area where the company lives. But this accident is not the biggest, but the situation is a bit special.

Illegal operations, casualties, and family members making trouble. That's not the most disturbing. The most disturbing thing is that after the person in charge cooperated with the local official investigation, it was found that the accident was deliberately sabotaged by someone planting explosives. So I didn't care about the jet lag or not, so I hurriedly dialed Jingyan at the first time and reported to the big boss for a decision.

When Jing Yan had just started, there was already a faint discussion. Wait for him to finish the matter. There was a "coaxing" in the conference room, and there was an instant uproar.

The discussion is becoming more and more intense, and there is a tendency to get out of control. Ke Jingyan, as the top boss, neither stopped nor expressed his opinion. Leaning back in the chair, he looked like he didn't care about himself, but he looked like a bystander watching the excitement.

It lasted five or six minutes. Until Vice President Li Weihua arrived in a hurry and interrupted the chaos.

Li Weihua's appearance was actually a bit abrupt. Because he pushed the door with more force in a hurry, it was a bit of a posture to break in. Everyone's eyes in the conference room were focused on him, silent. For a while, it made him a little dilemma.

Two seconds later, he nodded at Jing Yan in embarrassment, "I'm sorry chairman, I'm late......"

"Sit down." Jing Yan interrupted him lightly, and instructed the secretary behind him: "Give Vice President Li a copy of the record just now." As he spoke, he turned his head and glanced around, and finally spoke to personally preside over the situation, "How about it, have you discussed the results?" As he spoke, he knocked on the table with his fingers, and his voice was fast-paced, as if it was knocking on the hearts of everyone present, "Speak." I've been arguing for so long now, don't tell me I'm listening to it as a joke. ”

Everyone seemed unwilling to be the first bird to be the first to shoot, and they were all silent.

He snorted, raised his hand and pointed casually, and said to the man, "Come on, start with you." Speak in alphabetical order according to the surname. ”
