Chapter 148
Senior Mrs. Chu made a call to Chu Yuxin to invite Chu Yuxin and Xiao Potian to come to the Chu Family Villa to have dinner tonight.
It was hard for Chu Yuxin to reject Senior Mrs. Chu's warm-hearted offer that she could only agree to it.
As usual, Xiao Potian reached downstairs early to wait for her to get off work.
Chu Yuxin hadn't driven to work today, for she believed that Xiao Potian would definitely come to pick her up.
She didn't know that Xiao Potian had been by her side all day--he had been in the same building with her--nor did she know that the new president of the Xinghe Group was exactly her husband, Xiao Potian.
Chu Yuxin, "My grandma holds a party tonight for us." Chu Yuxin had been busy the whole day that she hadn't had time to call and inform Xiao Potian of this until now.
"Well, then get into the car." Xiao Potian wanted to send Chu Yuxin home in person, in which way he had to go to the party.
There were two reasons why he wanted to send her home in person. One was that Chu Yuxin hadn't driven a car today; the other was that the seven-day-long deadline he gave the Feng family was in two days, and the people of the Feng family would possibly take action anytime to kidnap Chu Yuxin.
After getting into the car, Chu Yuxin said, "There is a piece of good news. Your comrade, President Zhan, has agreed to give the Chu Group the project."
"Oh." Xiao Potian had long known about it, so he just replied in a calm tone.
"Why are you not surprised at all? I really didn't expect your comrade to show this much respect to you," asked Chu Yuxin.
"He and I are sworn friends after all," said Xiao Potian.
"Anyway, thank you very much. You helped my family a lot this time." This was the first time that Chu Yuxin had expressed her gratitude to Xiao Potian. She hadn't done such a thing before.
"You're welcome. Just don't forget the thing you promised me."
"What's it?" Chu Yuxin was puzzled for a moment.
"You promised me last night that as long as I help your family get the project, you will give me a hand job one more time. Are you going to take back your words?"
Chu Yuxin blushed instantly. She did have promised it to Xiao Potian. It was just because she wanted to drive Xiao Potian to put in a good word for her family to his comrade.
The Chu family had always looked down on and mocked him. She had worried that he would not do his best to persuade his comrade.
She didn't expect that he not only had made it but also taken her words so seriously.
"I'm a person of my words. I will realize my promise when we get back home tonight," said Chu Yuxin with her face red.
"Shihan is in our home. It will be inconvenient then. Why don't we do it now." Xiao Potian was eager to experience the intimacy again, thinking that he must get well prepared this time.
"You're driving now. What if there is a car accident because you get distracted? I don't want that. Rest assured. I will definitely realize what I promised you." said Chu Yuxin, both shy and annoyed.
"Okay, I'll listen to you." Seeing that Chu Yuxin was not willing to do it now, he didn't force her.
When they arrived at the Chu family, all the participants were also present.
Chu Yuxin was extremely welcome today, for she had brought a signed agreement with the Xinghe Group for the Chu family.
During the dinner, everyone was saying good words to Chu Yuxin.
In their mind, a project will be finished sooner or later, but Chu Yuxin could provide them more chances to get more projects.
They believed that as long as they built a connection with the Xinghe Group, they would be able to make a real fortune in the near future.
When the party was almost over, Xiao Potian, who had been silent all the time, suddenly said, "The day after tomorrow, I will hold a funeral for my dad. If you are free then, please come and attend."
Xiao Potian was already the husband of Chu Yuxin. His dad naturally had a relationship with the members of the Chu family. Therefore, he thought he should invite them to the funeral of his dad.
