Chapter 344: Taking Her on a Business Trip

When the car passed over a speed bump, Nan Jiaojiao frowned and grunted.

Bo Yanching asked Han Chuan to slow down, and as a result, they arrived at Feisheng only at eleven.

He took Nan Jiaojiao’s shoes off for her and then carried her to the sofa to sit down, “I’ll go get you a glass of water.”

Nan Jiaojiao’s eyelids were heavy, and she could barely keep them open; her head felt so heavy on her neck that all she wanted to do was nod lightly, but instead, she fell into his arms.

Bo Yanching immediately steadied her and hugged her into the sofa, stuffing two pillows beside her.

“There’s hangover medicine at home, I’ll go look for it.

If you feel sick and want to vomit, just tell me.”

Nan Jiaojiao still nodded.

He wasn’t completely at ease, and quickly grabbed medicine from the medicine box and fetched a cup of warm water.

Fortunately, when he walked back, Nan Jiaojiao hadn’t moved; she just bent at the waist, holding a pillow in her arms, and resting her head against the back of the sofa, she had fallen asleep.

Bo Yanching could only put down the medicine and water and carry her off to the bedroom.

Suddenly, her eyelids fluttered, and she glanced at him in a daze.

“Bo Yanching, I told you three times to take back what you said.”

He shuddered all over and immediately thought of the time they had fallen out at the Han Family’s.

She had said it three times, but he just didn’t know better.

During the days after they reconciled, she hadn’t mentioned it, and Bo Yanching didn’t dare to, never expecting it had become a knot in her heart.

The more he cared, the more he felt helpless.

His voice was gently soothing as he rubbed her lightly, “I know, my fault, it won’t happen again.”

Uncertain whether she heard him, Nan Jiaojiao closed her eyes and fell asleep in his embrace before he could put her in bed.

The next day.

The result of a hangover—her head almost exploded the next morning.

Nan Jiaojiao slept in a haze, feeling herself being lifted, a pill shoved into her mouth, and water fed to her.

The man’s refreshing voice was right beside her ear, “If you want to sleep, sleep a bit more; otherwise, your head will hurt.”

Nan Jiaojiao nodded, and then she slept until the afternoon.

Bo Yanching was in the fitness room, timing her probable wake time; when he went back to the room and didn’t see her, he found her in the bathroom standing in front of the mirror, frowning at her reflection.

“What’s wrong?”

Nan Jiaojiao twirled her hair around her finger, “Chu Yao dyed it while I was asleep, do you think it looks good?”

Bo Yanching couldn’t make out any sign of joy on her face.

“If you don’t like it, we can dye it back.”

Nan Jiaojiao thought for a moment then decided in her typical lazy manner, “Let’s leave it like this for now, we can change it when I get tired of it.”

Bo Yanching breathed a sigh of relief and asked, “Do you have time next week?”

“Which day are you asking about?”

“I need to go on a business trip to Green City for a week.

Didn’t you mention your grandfather and uncle live there?

You could visit them while I’m there.”

Nan Jiaojiao’s eyes lit up, “I’ll go!”

“Pack whatever you need, and we can buy anything else there; hurry and get ready for lunch.”

Nan Jiaojiao murmured an acknowledgment twice and smeared the foam evenly across her face.

In the days that followed, Chu Yao successfully met with the Director and presented the first draft Nan Jiaojiao had provided.

The Director immediately stated that as soon as the funding was in place, they could start filming.

No sooner had he said this than two billion in funds was added to the account.

It was invested by Mo Tingshen.

The Director was so fond of Chu Yao, his eyes always twinkling with delight when he looked at her.

With a talented actress who had two acting awards under her belt and could bring investment into the project, who wouldn’t like her?

Chu Yao jokingly told Nan Jiaojiao over the phone, “They’ve asked about you so many times, and I’ve blocked them all.

Now, you’re the hot commodity everyone wants a piece of, though they can’t find anyone to ask.”
