The Reborn Little Wife is Beautiful and Sassy

Chapter 158: On Call

Chu Wan put down the brush, took the cell phone aside, and made a call directly.

"Are you awake?" Two faint words came out slowly from Huo Yanzheng's thin lips with a hint of tenderness.

It was not too early, so he tried to call her. He was not sure whether Chu Wan would be able to answer the call, but he never thought that she would answer the phone so quickly.

Ordinarily, at this time, Chu Wan was still sleeping in the bedroom.

"Well, I've been awake for a while. I'm not in the bedroom now. I went downstairs and stayed in the studio." Chu Wan said to Huo Yanzheng obediently, her voice still a little soft and waxy.

"At work?" Huo Yanzheng was no longer confused or at a loss after hearing her crisp answer. He knew that she had indeed not just woken up.

Chu Wan is not a dodder flower who was born dependent on him. She has her own job.

Work mainly focused on painting, including submitting articles to major websites, opening galleries, participating in major domestic and foreign large-scale painting competitions, etc.

She needs to invest a lot of energy in careful preparation.

No matter which industry you are in, you need to let your work speak for itself, otherwise, everything is empty talk.

Chu Wan is tense and relaxed, free and busy, there is no definite number, but it all depends on how Chu Wan arranges her time.

Chu Wan took a look at her drawings and did not say that she was preparing a birthday surprise for him. Instead, she followed his words and said: "I have a competition to submit my work in a week, so I will be busy next."

This is not a lie made up casually. Chu Wan will indeed submit a work for the competition in a week. It is true that she will be busy for this.

But it’s hard to tell how busy I am.

She had completed the first draft of the work a few days ago, but the first draft was not yet satisfactory to her, and she would need to put some thought into revising it later.

"Then I didn't disturb you, right?" Huo Yanzheng said in a deep voice.

He had seen her concentrate on her painting.

If a person is interrupted when he is most concentrated, not only will his thoughts be suddenly interrupted, but he will even feel bored for no reason.

I don't know if he disturbed her.

"I have already picked up the pen and started painting. I haven't been painting for a long time when you called me right now." Chu Wan stood up from the sandalwood chair. She walked slowly to the window and half-leaned against the window frame.

"Then this phone call from me is really unlucky." After hearing what she said, Huo Yanzheng said thoughtfully.

"It's no coincidence, you didn't disturb me."

Chu Wan didn't take it seriously and said in a shallow tone, "No matter what time it is, or whether I'm busy or not, as long as the person calling is you, then there's no need to disturb me, and you don't have to pick a specific time to call me.

Call me, as long as you miss me, you can call me anytime."

Whether she was busy or not was one thing, but answering Huo Yanzheng's call was another matter.

The two do not conflict.

You can answer Huo Yanzheng's call first and then get busy.

Chu Wan weighed the priorities very clearly.

"I hope my phone wasn't turned off when I called you." Huo Yanzheng's stern profile was as sharp as a knife, but now it gradually became gentler.

Like a sharp reef standing on the coast, the sharp edges and corners of the surface are smoothed away little by little under the beating of waves, and then a clear and gentle moistness is revealed.

Huo Yanzheng's iceberg face, which has remained unchanged for thousands of years, will melt away only in front of Chu Wan, glowing with the warmth of a genial spring day.

"I will not deliberately ignore your call. As long as my mobile phone has power, you can call me at any time." This is not a joke.

She would never fail to answer Huo Yanzheng's phone calls.

"Then, can you be on call?" Huo Yanzheng put the mobile phone to his ear, and the computer screen was on. He clicked the mouse and scrolled through the information that would be used in the next meeting.

The dense text displayed on the screen is not obscure and difficult to understand.

The contents of the meetings were similar to those he had seen in the past, nothing special.

Huo Yanzheng felt that something was different and special, which made him feel better every time he turned the page.

Chu Wan, who was in the Royal Garden, looked at the scenery in front of her. Her bright eyes were shining brightly, as if they were dotted with bright gems in the sky. She gently responded to him: "If you have this need, it's not impossible.

On call."

This is not an excessive request, it's not that she can't satisfy him.

In the courtyard outside the window, a tree with a crooked neck stood tall into the clouds. Chu Wan looked up and saw a rich green color.

The leafy crooked neck tree shows a vibrant vitality.

Some tree branches dropped from high places and almost jumped into the floor-to-ceiling windows.

Chu Wan stretched out her hand, but couldn't reach it.

Even the tree branches hanging down from a high place are still at a certain height from the ground, which is not a distance that she can reach.

Huo Yanzheng, who was in Huo's, slightly curled his thin lips, showing his good mood. He chatted with Chu Wan for a few more words, and then asked casually: "Have you had breakfast?"

"I haven't eaten yet." Chu Wan hesitated a little, but she never thought of deceiving Huo Yanzheng, "I'm still painting in the studio, and I plan to eat it later."

After hanging up the phone, Chu Wan planned to finish the work first and then go to have breakfast.

The sun is rising slowly, the bright sunshine is gradually getting stronger, and the mottled tree shadows are unevenly dense, casting dots of dark color on Chu Wan's body.

Chu Wan raised her head slightly, still feeling a little dazzling.

"Stop being busy and go eat. Your health is important." After all, they had been together day and night for a while, and Huo Yanzheng was not unfamiliar with some of Chu Wan's habits.

If she gets busy, she might be overworked.

Huo Yanzheng looked at the information on the computer, and the faint smile on his lips deepened little by little.

When Chu Wan, who was staying in the studio, heard this, she looked back at the unfinished album placed on the table.

Next to the album is a box of scattered colored pens.

"Okay, I'll get busy after dinner." There was no need to weigh anything. Even though the album was not completed, Chu Wan chose to agree to Huo Yanzheng immediately.

Naturally, she couldn't ignore his caring advice.

Green trees provided shade, and most of her body was shrouded in mottled shadows, but the warmth released by the sun hovered around her, warming her body.

It also warmed her heart.

The warmth trickling out of her heart was not entirely brought to her by the sunshine, but also by the warmth that leaked from Huo Yanzheng's considerate concern.

Since she promised Huo Yanzheng, she would not break her promise.

Chu Wan walked out of the studio and asked someone to bring breakfast to the table.

While waiting for the servant to bring breakfast to the table, Chu Wan still didn't understand the purpose of Huo Yanzheng's call.

She was not a shy person, so she asked Huo Yanzheng directly: "By the way, Yan Zheng, you haven't said why you called me this time?"

As soon as she finished asking, Huo Yanzheng was obviously taken aback.
