Chapter: 2806
Right now, Su Chouren is in a meeting at Emperor's Group.
Recently, she has spent more than half of her working hours there.
Because many projects need to be coordinated with representatives from Emperor's Group, any changes that arise must be adjusted immediately.
Emperor's Group itself is the largest real estate development group in Jinling, and its requirements for cooperation partners are extremely demanding.
Moreover, inside Emperor's Group, only Wang Dongxue knows Xiao Churan's true identity as the wife of the chairman. Others are unaware of this fact.
So, in their eyes, Xiao Churan has just won the cooperation with Emperor's Group, and they naturally have extremely strict requirements for the cooperative partners.
Xiao Churan received a phone call from Ye Chen and hurried to the bathroom to answer it. After listening, she asked: "Old man, why are you calling me now? Is there something wrong?"
Ye Chen suddenly got tangled up.
In fact, unless absolutely necessary, he didn't want to lie or deceive Xiao Churan.
However, this kind of thing is impossible for him to tell her the truth.
Not only because the situation in Syria looks extremely dangerous to ordinary people, but even explaining why he went to Syria would be unclear.
If he were to tell her, it would involve many questions that he couldn't answer, such as who his mother was? Who his mother's classmates were?
Again, if his mother's classmates' child got into trouble in Syria and he had to go there alone without any backup? And how could he even get there without a direct flight?
Sometimes, if you choose to speak the truth, you have to reveal all key information openly and honestly, otherwise it would be more suitable to fabricate a false reason.
Lei Chen thought for a moment and said: "Husband, it's like this. I have a client who wants me to go out of town to look at some real estate for him. He just found the perfect second-hand villa that someone else is desperate to sell if everything checks out okay, he'll buy it right away."
Shi Chunren asked him: "Are you going out of town? How long will you be gone?"
Lei Chen thought about it and said: "If I'm fast, I can be back tomorrow; but if I'm slow, it might take three or four days."
Shi Chunren couldn't help but ask him softly: "Husband, can we get out of this project? You're going to have your birthday soon, and I really don't want you to be busy like that for the next few days."
Lei Chen's heart was touched, and he spoke softly: "Okay, wife. To be honest, I don't want to go out right now either, but this time it's an old client looking for me, and I really can't get out of it."
He paused slightly before continuing: "Wife, unless I promise you that after I finish this job, I won't take on any new projects for the next month!"
Lei Chen promised to wait a whole month because around that time, there would be the Qingming Festival, and he would have to go to Yanjing to participate in the ancestral sacrifices, so he would definitely need an excuse related to looking at real estate.
His wife, Xiu Chunran, finally felt a bit relieved when she heard Lei Chen say he wouldn't take on any new projects for the next month. Her tone was playful and flirtatious as she said: "This is exactly what you promised! If in the future within the next month, you still dare to go out and show off your feng shui skills to others, then I'll make sure we sleep in separate rooms!"
Lei Chen immediately agreed without hesitation, saying: "Don't worry, I mean it!"
Xiu Chunran was finally satisfied and asked him: "So, when are you leaving exactly?"
Lei Chen replied: "I'm leaving right away." JrNovels.com
