My buildings have attributes

Just then, Li Lili went to the dressing room to change her clothes. Of course, she needed the assistance of a shop assistant. A short while later, Li Lili came out. When Chen Ling saw her, he was momentarily captivated. Looking at Li Lili, he couldn't say anything except "beautiful." Then he heard Li Lili say, "How is it, Chen Ling? Do I look good?" "Beautiful, beautiful, absolutely beautiful! It fits perfectly!" Chen Ling was already stunned by Li Lili's appearance.

"Mr. Chen, you and Ms. Shen are truly a perfect match," the shop assistant said softly from the side. It must be said that shop assistants are usually very sweet-talking, but this time, they weren't exaggerating; the two of them really were a perfect couple.

"Thank you," Li Lili said quickly after hearing the shop assistant's praise. She then took Chen Ling's hand and asked, "Where shall we take our wedding photos?" Li Lili knew Chen Ling had already made the arrangements. "Just upstairs," Chen Ling said, playfully flicking Li Lili's nose. Then the shop assistant said, "Please come this way," gesturing for them to proceed.

Chapter 285 Auspicious Topping-Out

Meanwhile, Liu Yuyang was preparing to go to the construction site, since the roof was to be completed today, and he wanted to get there as soon as possible.

Liu Yuyang drove very fast and soon arrived at the construction site. The workers there were very welcoming to him, as they all knew how good he and his team were. Someone asked, "Mr. Liu, why didn't Mr. Chen come with you today?"

Many people are still thinking about having the opportunity to properly thank them today. It is all because of Liu Yuyang and Chen Ling that they were able to go home and have a good New Year this year.

"Mr. Chen had some family matters to attend to and couldn't come. It's alright, it's all the same," Liu Yuyang said frankly. So they didn't say anything more, just echoed, "Yes, yes, yes."

When the time came, Liu Yuyang began the topping-out ceremony. They first set off firecrackers, then cut the ribbon, and later hung up banners. After all that was done, Liu Yuyang said to them, "It's almost Chinese New Year, let me treat you to a meal." Liu Yuyang admired them greatly and wanted to take advantage of the holiday to have a meal with them.

Then they went to a nearby restaurant together. Men are easy to talk to; they're fine with whatever they eat, the main thing is drinking. Once they arrived at the restaurant, they started drinking.

"Mr. Liu, let me first raise a glass to you. Thank you for your hospitality today, and thank you and Mr. Chen for the project." The project manager stood up, raised a glass to Liu Yuyang, and then drank it all in one gulp.

So they all started toasting Liu Yuyang. After drinking a few glasses, Liu Yuyang said, "There are too many of you, so let's not toast each person individually. Let's all raise a glass to celebrate this auspicious milestone." After saying this, Liu Yuyang stood up, and they followed suit. After clinking glasses and finishing their drinks, they all sat down again to eat.

Then, led by a shop assistant, Chen Ling and Li Lili entered the shooting location. The photographer and makeup artist were already prepared. After Chen Ling and Li Lili entered, they immediately began choosing clothes and preparing for makeup and photoshoots. They first put on a Tang-style dress, ready for the photos.

After Chen Ling and Li Lili changed their clothes, the makeup artist immediately came over to do their makeup, and then they started taking photos. This time, the photo style was more playful, and after shooting for an hour, the photographer gave an OK sign, indicating that they could move on to the next set of photos.

Then they saw Chen Ling and Li Lili again, and went over to choose clothes. This time, Li Lili chose a rather sexy black dress. They say wedding photos are a reflection of a woman, and it's certainly true. Whatever Li Lili chose, Chen Ling had to match.

This time, the clothing style was quite sexy, so naturally, Chen Ling and Li Lili's photos were also mostly sexy. After another hour, the photographer finally yelled "OK!" Upon hearing the photographer's voice, Chen Ling and Li Lili seemed to feel a sense of liberation. "Wow, my face is stiff from smiling so much," Li Lili said as she walked over. "It's really exhausting," Chen Ling couldn't help but complain. However, the photographer and makeup artist were already used to their reactions and weren't surprised. So, the photographer said, "Ten-minute break, we'll continue later." Upon hearing the photographer's voice, Li Lili let out a long sigh.

Ten minutes passed quickly, and Chen Ling and Li Lili had to choose clothes again before heading over for the photoshoot. By this time, Li Lili was practically numb to the clothes. So she just grabbed one and put it on. The outfit Li Lili picked was quite youthful; it was also a matching couple's outfit. Wearing it, Chen Ling and Li Lili looked like they were back in their university days. They hurriedly shot for another hour, then changed clothes again, and shot for another hour.

After a four-hour battle, it finally ended. As soon as the bell rang, Li Lili grabbed Chen Ling's clothes, ready to leave. "What's wrong? Why are you in such a panic?" Chen Ling asked, looking at Li Lili blankly. Li Lili replied, "Let's get out of here, escape this place of trouble. It's been so painful." Hearing this, Chen Ling immediately laughed and said, "Don't you girls all like taking pictures?"

“I love taking photos, but not to this extent! No, it’s just too tiring. Let me tell you, I can’t take photos like this again in my life,” Li Lili said to Chen Ling, panting. “Is it that serious? What do you mean by ‘a second time’? Who else do you want to come back and take photos with?” Chen Ling was initially incredulous, but then, remembering what Li Lili had said, he tapped her head and began to speak.

Chen Ling checked the time; it was already 2 PM. So he took Li Lili to have lunch.

"Are you starving?" Chen Ling asked Li Lili as soon as they got into the car.

"Mmm, I'm really hungry, and I'm so tired," Li Lili said, rubbing her stomach. Even now, she wasn't forgetting to complain about how tiring it was to take wedding photos.

"Haha, look how wronged you are! What do you want to eat? I'll take you to eat and treat you properly. Eat a lot later!" Chen Ling said to Li Lili affectionately. Li Lili thought for a moment, then said, "Let's go eat hot pot. It's been so long since I've had it." So Chen Ling led Li Lili towards their usual hot pot restaurant.

Chen Ling didn't talk much to Li Lili along the way. When they were almost there, he noticed she had fallen asleep with her head tilted to the side. Looking at her, Chen Ling shook his head helplessly, thinking how exhausted he had been that day. Luckily, he had only ordered four outfits and the shoot had only lasted four hours; otherwise, Li Lili would have been exhausted to tears. Thinking of this, Chen Ling couldn't help but shake his head with a smile.

Soon, they arrived at the entrance of the hot pot restaurant. After parking the car, Chen Ling prepared to wake Li Lili.

Chapter 286 Wedding Theme

After waking up, Li Lili rubbed her eyes and said, "We're here so quickly!" Upon hearing this, Chen Ling said, "You must be exhausted. You slept the whole way." Li Lili smiled sheepishly after hearing Chen Ling's words, and then Chen Ling and Li Lili walked into the hot pot restaurant.

This hot pot restaurant is a fairly authentic Chongqing hot pot restaurant, which is also one of Li Lili's favorites, so they basically always come here whenever they want hot pot. After entering, they sat down at their usual spot. Li Lili started ordering. It was noticeable that Li Lili ordered much more dishes than usual today, and Chen Ling, seeing this, didn't order any more.

Normally, after Li Lili ordered, Chen Ling would order a few more dishes. However, today Li Lili had already exceeded the record. "Alright, do you want anything else to eat?" After Li Lili finished ordering, she handed the menu to Chen Ling. Chen Ling looked at the menu, then shook it and handed the list to the waiter.

However, at this time, Mr. and Mrs. Chen were still busy. After looking at many hotels, they still hadn't found one they liked. It wasn't until they arrived at their fourth hotel that they finally felt somewhat satisfied. So, Mr. and Mrs. Chen began to admire the hotel's scenery and the wedding style.

Mr. and Mrs. Chen knew that Chen Ling and Shen Lingxue had chosen a Western-style wedding, but after visiting several hotels, they found the Western-style options rather ordinary, lacking any standout features that would immediately appeal to them. At this point, Mr. Chen started asking the hotel manager about their wedding plans. Mr. and Mrs. Chen reviewed many of these Western-style plans and were quite satisfied. After discussing it, they decided to choose this hotel. It was the Yingbin Grand Hotel, a fairly well-known hotel in the city.

Mr. and Mrs. Chen started brainstorming the theme for Chen Ling's wedding. Looking at the various planning proposals, they were somewhat overwhelmed. So Mrs. Chen said to the hotel manager, "Let's go home and discuss it. Our opinions are ultimately not as good as their child's. We'll discuss it when we get back and give you an answer, okay?" At this point, the hotel manager asked them to pay a deposit in advance so they could reserve the venue. So Mr. and Mrs. Chen together paid a deposit of 20,000 yuan, then took the several Western-style planning proposals provided by the hotel and prepared to go home. They had been so busy that they hadn't even had time for lunch yet.

After leaving the hotel, Mr. and Mrs. Chen grabbed a quick bite nearby and prepared to take a taxi home. However, when they arrived home, Chen Ling and Li Lili were already back, watching TV in the living room. Mrs. Chen said to them, "Wow, you're back so early! I thought you were going to be shooting all day." Then they heard Li Lili complain, "Luckily it was only one morning, otherwise I would have died. It's so tiring, taking wedding photos is so exhausting!" Mr. and Mrs. Chen laughed upon hearing Li Lili's words.

"Really, Mom and Dad, don't laugh, we're completely exhausted today. Ask Chen Ling, wow, we've been shooting for over four hours straight, changing clothes back and forth, our mouths are practically frozen from smiling." Hearing Li Lili's words, Chen Ling chimed in, "Really, Mom, it's so tiring. You guys never took as many photos as we have before. You really don't know how tired we are. When you and Dad go for a reshoot, you'll understand how we feel then." As he spoke, Chen Ling patted his legs, then added, "Look, my legs are so weak I can barely stand, they're starting to tremble."

"Alright, alright, I know you've worked hard. Let me tell you about the wedding plans. Take a look, these are all the plans the hotel has provided. See which one you like, and then we'll decide." Mrs. Chen began to take out the plans she had brought back from the hotel.

Chen Ling and Li Lili looked at the proposal several times, discussed it, and then chose a design with a white and blue theme. Li Lili then said to Chen's mother, "Mom, what do you think of this?" Chen's mother looked at the proposal Li Lili handed her and nodded, saying, "This one looks pretty good too. Your dad and I were just undecided, so we brought it back for you to choose from. Just discuss it and decide. We both think it's good."

"Let's choose this one then. It looks pretty good too. Don't keep looking at different options; it'll make your eyes tired," Chen Ling said, making his decision. Li Lili then handed the proposal to Chen's mother, who in turn passed it to Chen's father. After receiving the proposal, Chen's father said, "I'll call the hotel to confirm it's been sent to them." He then stood up to make the call.

After Mr. Chen left, Mrs. Chen turned to Li Lili and asked, "Did you take any photos with your phone today? Let me see them first." So Li Lili sat down next to Mrs. Chen and said, "Yes, we took some. Look, their styling over there is quite nice." As she spoke, Li Lili held up the photo album on her phone for Mrs. Chen to look at.

Just then, Chen's mother looked at the photos on her phone and kept praising them, saying, "They're beautiful." After looking at them, Chen's mother told Li Lili, "Send these photos to my phone." Li Lili smiled and agreed, and immediately sent them to Chen's mother.

Mrs. Chen didn't mean anything by it; she just wanted to look at the photos more often when she had free time. Just then, Mr. Chen finished his phone call and came over. Mrs. Chen showed him the photos on her phone, praising how well they were taken.

So Li Lili also picked up her phone and started looking at the photos she had taken. However, Chen Ling, who was standing next to her, said, "Alright, alright, why are you two keeping looking at these? What are we having for dinner?" After saying that, Chen Ling continued watching the TV series. Then they heard Chen's mother saying something.

Chapter 287 Tricky

After hearing Chen Ling's words, Chen's mother and the others turned to look at Chen Ling, then went back to looking at the photos. They didn't say anything more. After a while, Chen's mother finally said, "I'll go cook." Then she stood up and prepared to go to the kitchen.

Just then, Li Lili saw Chen's mother walk over and followed. "Mom, let me help you," Li Lili said as she walked with Chen's mother towards the kitchen. At that moment, Chen Ling turned to look at the two women, then grinned. Chen Ling thought how lucky his wife was to get along so well with his mother. It saved him a lot of trouble. But then again, it was because both Chen's mother and Li Lili were reasonable people.

Just then, Mr. Chen said to Chen Ling, "Is the company very busy lately? It's almost the end of the year." Mr. Chen thought that with the holiday approaching, there must be a lot of things waiting for Chen Ling to handle. So he heard Chen Ling reply, "Yes, very busy. I haven't had time to go lately. I didn't even go to the topping-out ceremony today." Chen Ling muttered to himself.

Upon hearing this, Mr. Chen was taken aback, then continued, "A man should ultimately be focused on his career. You should prioritize your work. Avoid going to other things personally if possible." Mr. Chen believed that career should take precedence over family. Chen Ling nodded in agreement, offering no rebuttal.

Just then, Chen Ling asked his father again, "Is the guest list finalized? Ningxue doesn't have any relatives. Only her family members are coming." Chen Ling then confirmed the guest list with his father.

At this moment, Mr. Chen also expressed his concerns. "Don't worry about that, your mother and I have taken care of everything. There's just one thing, Chen Ling, how is Ningxue's father? Is he able to attend?" Mr. Chen was also concerned about Li Lili's father, who was still in the hospital, and had heard from Chen Ling that his condition wasn't good and had worsened.

"Sigh, Dad, to be honest, this is what I'm worried about too. Ningxue's father hasn't been in good health, and he's been relying on medication lately. Sigh." Chen Ling was also very worried after hearing his father's words.

"You should go to the hospital tomorrow and ask the doctor if the tour guide can go to the hotel. It's troublesome if we can't go, but it's also a bit tricky if we don't go," Mr. Chen said with a sigh.

Just then, Mr. Chen said again, "This is really a tricky matter."

Hearing his father's mutterings, Chen Ling chimed in, "Sigh, yes, I'll go to the hospital tomorrow to ask. It's been a few days since I visited them. It's not just Ningxue's father, but also Ningxue's sister. This is all going on." At this moment, Chen Ling also thought of Li Lili's sister. Shen Ninglu could attend Li Lili's wedding at the hotel, but Shen Ninglu's mental state wasn't good; he didn't want anything to go wrong. After saying this, Chen Ling continued to ponder these matters.

Just then, after hearing Chen Ling's words, Mr. Chen felt even more troubled. They were afraid that something unexpected might happen at Chen Ling and Li Lili's wedding. However, these were things they were worried about that were beyond their control.

At this moment, neither Mr. Chen nor Chen Ling spoke, each lost in thought, trying to find a good solution to the problem. However, after thinking for a long time, they still couldn't come up with a solution. Just then, Li Lili came out of the kitchen and said to them, "Dad, Chen Ling, get ready for dinner."

After hearing Li Lili's words, Chen Ling and his father stood up to wash their hands and went to eat. Soon, Chen's mother brought out dinner, and the family sat down to eat together. Just then, Chen's mother said, "You haven't visited Ningxue's family in the hospital these past few days. Take some time to go and see them."

Upon hearing his mother's words, Chen Ling immediately said, "Dad and I were just discussing this. Let's go tomorrow, Ningxue and I will go check on things at the hospital." Li Lili smiled and nodded at Chen Ling. Li Lili thought Chen Ling was truly a good son-in-law and husband. Even at a time like this, he still thought of his family. Li Lili then turned to look at Chen's mother and father, wondering to herself what she had done to deserve being in the Chen family.

They finished dinner quickly, and Chen Ling had already gone back to his room. Li Lili stayed to help Chen's mother clean up the dishes, while Chen's father watched TV in the living room. After a while, Li Lili and Chen's mother finished washing the dishes, and Chen's mother said to Li Lili, "You should go back and rest early too." So Li Lili went back to her bedroom.

When Li Lili returned to the bedroom, Chen Ling was lying on the bed scrolling through his phone. Li Lili looked at the relaxed Chen Ling and said, "It's been a long time since I've seen you so relaxed." Hearing Li Lili's words, Chen Ling looked up at her and smiled. He then began to say, "Lately, big and small things, at the company and at home, have really kept me incredibly busy."

"Oh, right, we're going to the hospital to see Mom and Dad tomorrow. Is there anything we should bring?" Li Lili shook her head after hearing Chen Ling's words, and then said, "There's nothing we need to bring. They don't need anything. We can just go straight there." Seeing this, Chen Ling didn't say anything more. He nodded and continued playing with his phone.

Seeing Chen Ling continue playing on his phone, Li Lili didn't say anything more and went to the bathroom to wash up. After a while, Li Lili came out of the bathroom and saw Chen Ling still playing on his phone. She then said to him, "It's getting late, go to bed and rest." Hearing Li Lili's words, Chen Ling glanced at his phone again, then put it down and went to the bathroom to wash up.

Chapter 288 A Strange Aura

When Chen Ling finished showering and came out, Li Lili was already asleep. Seeing her fast asleep, Chen Ling shook his head, thinking to himself that he had really exhausted her today. Then, thinking of this, Chen Ling couldn't help but smile again; he thought Li Lili looked really cute today! Then Chen Ling lay down on the bed, ready to rest.

After all, he was very tired after taking wedding photos today.

The next day arrived quickly. When Chen Ling woke up, Li Lili was already up preparing breakfast. After Chen Ling finished washing up, he was about to go to the living room when he received another call from Liu Yuyang. Liu Yuyang immediately started talking on the other end of the line: "Boss, are you coming to the company today? It's been so many days, and you haven't come back to visit. Getting married really changes things!" Liu Yuyang complained on the other end of the phone.

Upon hearing this, Chen Ling smiled and said to Liu Yuyang, "Isn't it better if I don't go? Honestly, the company has you guys. What's wrong with me taking a few days off?"

Then Liu Yuyang started saying, "That can't go on like this, boss. You yourself said that you haven't come to the company since you got your marriage certificate. Can this go on? We don't see you every day. You're not like this at all. You used to be a workaholic. What happened to you? It's terrifying!" Chen Ling looked helpless after hearing this, and then said to him, "Okay, okay, I'll go over after I have breakfast." Then Chen Ling hung up the phone and started walking to the living room.

Just then, Chen Ling entered the living room and saw Li Lili. He then said to Li Lili, "Let's go to the company first. That kid Liu Yuyang keeps calling me, saying I'm not going to the company." Before Li Lili could even speak, Chen's father interrupted, "Chen Ling, you go to the company and take care of your business first."

Mr. Chen had long had some complaints about Chen Ling's recent performance. He was talking to Chen Ling yesterday, saying that a man should put more effort into his career and leave more work for him. After hearing Chen Ling's words today, he immediately repeated the same thing to him. Chen Ling nodded quickly and said, "Okay, okay, I understand."

Then he said to Li Lili, "Let's go to the company together. I'm not comfortable with you going to the hospital alone. It's been a while since I've been to the company. We'll go together in a bit; I bet the people there still have a lot of questions they want to ask us. I'll go to the hospital with you after get off work." Chen Ling thought that since they announced their marriage on WeChat Moments, they hadn't been back to the company, and it was time to go back and check on things.

So Chen Ling went over and started eating, planning to go back to work afterward. Just then, his mother started speaking again: "Chen Ling, you're back at the company. If you have anything to do, go ahead and do it, but don't work too late. Your health is more important. Look at you lately, with things at home and at work, you've lost weight." Unlike his father, Chen Ling's mother only cared about his health; that's probably the difference between a father and a mother. It's said that fatherly love is like a mountain, and motherly love is like water, and there's definitely a reason for that.

Just then, Chen Ling heard his mother's words and immediately said, "What? I've lost weight? That won't do! I have to regain it right away!" Chen Ling's exaggerated words amused his mother and the others. Then, his mother said with a smile, "Alright, stop showing off. Eat properly. Remember what I said, health is the foundation of everything. No matter how busy you are, don't overexert yourself."

After finishing her speech, Mrs. Chen picked up some food and placed it in Chen Ling's bowl. Then Mr. Chen began to say, "He's at the age where he should be working hard and striving; let him go and fight for it." After saying this, Mr. Chen immediately lowered his head and began to eat. Mrs. Chen glanced at him but said nothing more. Mr. and Mrs. Chen had always had a harmonious relationship, which meant they rarely clashed on how to raise Chen Ling. This is a common problem for many couples, and fortunately, Mr. Chen was a doting husband.

Just then, Li Lili said to Chen's mother, "Mom, don't worry, I'll keep an eye on him for you." Hearing this, Chen's mother felt much more at ease. She then said to Li Lili, "Haha, okay, you'd better keep a close eye on him." Chen's mother finished speaking while still laughing.

A short while later, Chen Ling and Li Lili finished breakfast and prepared to go to the company. Chen Ling waited for Li Lili to go back to her room to get her bag so they could leave. Just then, Chen's father said to Chen Ling, "Chen Ling, work hard!" Chen Ling nodded quickly. At that moment, Li Lili came out of her room, and Chen Ling said, "Mom and Dad, I'm leaving." Then Chen Ling and Li Lili went out.

While in the car, Chen Ling played the song "Today You're Marrying Me" on repeat. Li Lili's cheeks flushed slightly upon hearing it.

Just then, Li Lili said, "Chen Ling, stop playing this song. I feel like the atmosphere is a bit strange." After hearing Li Lili's words, Chen Ling turned to look at her and said, "Huh? What's wrong? Doesn't it sound good?" After saying that, Chen Ling even started humming along to the music.

Just then, Li Lili began to say, "Oh no, no! Chen Ling, can you please stop listening to this? It's weird. I'm already married to you, what are you still listening to?" Li Lili said speechlessly.

However, at that moment, Chen Ling said seriously to Li Lili, "We haven't had our wedding yet, have we? Let's play this song after we have the wedding. It's a good idea." As Chen Ling spoke, the music started playing. Li Lili shook her head helplessly and didn't say anything more.

Chapter 289 Wedding Candy

At this moment, Li Lili covered the goosebumps on her arm. After a while, she said to Chen Ling, "Chen Ling, you should change it, it's weird." Seeing this, Chen Ling couldn't refuse Li Lili, so he listened to her and changed the music.

However, the songs Chen Ling changed were still related to marriage. One song, "Let's Get Married," left Li Lili speechless. She looked at Chen Ling helplessly, thinking, "Fine, that's it." She didn't say anything more to Chen Ling. Let him do what he wants; play whatever he wants. Chen Ling turned to look at Li Lili, made a funny face at her, and then focused on driving again.

Chen Ling and Li Lili finally quieted down in the car. The atmosphere eased after listening to some normal songs. However, they were almost at the company. Li Lili hadn't even listened to two normal songs before Chen Ling and Li Lili arrived at the company building. Chen Ling drove directly into the parking lot, and after parking, Li Lili said, "Let's go to the supermarket to buy some candy later."

Upon hearing Li Lili's words, Chen Ling clapped his hands and said, "Oh, if you hadn't mentioned it, I would have completely forgotten about it. Thank goodness you reminded me. We need to buy this." Chen Ling thought to himself that as the boss, he was getting married soon, how could he not even let his employees have a taste of the wedding candy? Then he said to Li Lili, "Let's hurry, let's go check out the supermarket next door." As he spoke, Chen Ling pulled Li Lili towards the supermarket.

Just then, Chen Ling and Li Lili went into the supermarket and bought a lot of candy, intending to go back to the company later. However, after paying and leaving the supermarket, Li Lili couldn't help but laugh when she saw so many wedding candies in Chen Ling's hands. Chen Ling, seeing Li Lili laughing incessantly beside him, asked in confusion, "What are you thinking about? Why are you so happy?"

As soon as Chen Ling finished speaking, Li Lili began, "I was thinking about you and me, how we somehow ended up getting our marriage certificate, and now we're even handing out wedding candy to everyone. Time really flies. Back in college, I never imagined I'd have any connection with you, let alone get married." Li Lili finished speaking and then started laughing again. However, after hearing Li Lili's words, Chen Ling seemed lost in thought, pondering something.

Just then, Chen Ling, seeing Li Lili's expression, didn't say anything more. He simply said softly to Li Lili, "Let's go back to the company." Li Lili turned to look at Chen Ling, buried her head beside him, and prepared to go back with him. However, at that moment, Chen Ling looked down at Li Lili nestled against his arm, then patted her head before walking straight ahead.

A short while later, Chen Ling and Li Lili arrived at the company. Upon seeing them, their colleagues immediately began to tease them. The first to speak was naturally Liu Yuyang. "Oh, the newlyweds are here! Not busy at home anymore?" Liu Yuyang's tone was tinged with envy. "If you get married, I'll give you honeymoon leave too," Chen Ling said casually, looking at Liu Yuyang. Chen Ling's reply was indeed clever. Liu Yuyang, standing to the side, didn't know how to respond.

Then Liu Yuyang said again, "Congratulations! Did you bring the wedding candy?" As soon as Liu Yuyang finished speaking, the people next to him immediately said, "Yes, boss, where's the wedding candy?" At this moment, Chen Mengyao, who had been silent, couldn't help but speak up. She shouted, "Are you blind? The boss is holding it right there, why are you asking so many questions?" After Chen Mengyao finished speaking, someone started whistling. Then Li Lili spoke up, saying, "Of course you won't be shortchanged on the wedding candy." Chen Ling then handed them the wedding candy.

After receiving the wedding candy, these people quieted down. Then Chen Ling said to Liu Yuyang, "Come in with me." Chen Ling led Liu Yuyang back to his office. When Chen Ling arrived, he found his office covered in dust, as he hadn't been there for several days. He said to Liu Yuyang, "I haven't been to work, and you're not even cleaning for me? You're slacking off!" Chen Ling was a little angry; he hadn't expected his employees to have learned to be lazy. Then Liu Yuyang said, "Oh, it's a misunderstanding. It was windy yesterday, and sand got in." Hearing this, Chen Ling rolled his eyes at Liu Yuyang. Didn't he realize how high the sand could blow? He didn't say anything more and got back to the point, asking Liu Yuyang about recent company matters.

Just then, Chen Ling began to say, "So, what's up? You've been calling me these past few days. What's on your mind?" However, as soon as Chen Ling finished speaking, Liu Yuyang immediately retorted, "What could I possibly want from you? I just noticed you haven't been to the company in so long and wanted to ask when you're coming back. Everyone's missing you, hasn't they?" After hearing Liu Yuyang's words, Chen Ling didn't continue with that statement but instead asked, "What's been going on at the company lately? Tell me about it."

As the boss, Chen Ling was naturally more concerned about the company's performance, so Liu Yuyang began to report to him on some recent events, mostly concerning project progress. Then Liu Yuyang started talking about yesterday's topping-out ceremony. "Yesterday I went to the construction site, and they were still asking me why I hadn't come. You see, it's not just us who's thinking about you; everyone on the construction site is too," Liu Yuyang emphasized as he said this.

Upon hearing this, Chen Ling became interested in yesterday's topping-out ceremony and asked Liu Yuyang, "What happened? What happened yesterday?"

However, upon hearing Chen Ling's words, Liu Yuyang immediately recalled what had happened yesterday. As he reminisced, he couldn't help but smile.

Chapter 290 Strategizing
