“Tonight Is New Year’s Eve, it’s New Year’s Eve. The empire’s custom has always been for family reunions. “It doesn’t matter if I’m alone. You all have wives and children. Go home early for the New Year. “Pass down my orders. The Secret Guards for tonight should also be dismissed.”
Chu Junmo’s voice was cold and calm, but the words he said made people feel warm in their hearts.
Secretary Jiao and the servants looked at each other and could not help but feel touched. The president always thought of them this way. He even thought of the reunion for them on New Year’s Eve, unlike other masters, selfish, overbearing, and unreasonable.
However..
Secretary Jiao was a little worried. “President, if we remove the secret guards, will it be too unsafe? Why don’t we leave half of them?”
Chu Junmo waved his hand. “It’s alright. With my body, who else would want to harm me? In the past, we had to guard against Gong Jue, so we strengthened the guards. Now that he can’t protect himself, he won’t come and get into trouble.”
Secretary Jiao thought about it and it seemed to make sense.
Recently, the person who hadn’t been on good terms with the Chu family was the former chief of the Empire, Gong Jue.
Now that Gong Jue had escaped from prison and was hiding somewhere, he definitely had to keep a low profile. How could he come looking for trouble with the CEO.
Secretary Jiao did not insist.
However, before he left, he instructed two smart and capable secret guards who were young and unmarried to patrol the vicinity of the house just in case. He also promised to give them a holiday to compensate them after the new year.
He still felt uneasy that the CEO did not leave anyone by his side to take care of him.
Therefore, that night, in the huge Chu residence, only Chu Junmo’s study room had a small light on.
Meanwhile, the two young secret guards were dutifully patrolling around the Chu residence without blinking..
Chu Junmo opened the refrigerator.
The box of dumplings that Gu Qiqi had sent him was frozen inside.
When he opened it, the box was still full.
In fact, when he received the dumplings, his heart was moved beyond words. After looking at it for a long time, he couldn’t bear to eat it at all.
That day, he only cooked... one dumpling!
The rest was placed on the quick-frozen layer.
It took him a few days before he was willing to take it out and cook it.
It was New Year’s Eve tonight.
He had drunk the medicine, so he shouldn’t have eaten anything.
However, he pursed his lips and took out the dumplings. Then, he only squeezed one out..
The remaining dumplings were put back as they were.
Gu Qiqi had sent a total of two to five dumplings back then.
He counted them clearly.
Last time, there was one, tonight, and there were still two to three in the fridge.
If he ate one every week, then he could still eat for half a year... !
Chu Junmo used his top-notch business brain to seriously calculate how to eat the dumplings.
If an outsider saw this, they would definitely be dumbfounded and find it unbelievable.
A great CEO actually calculated so meticulously for a worthless dumpling. He must be sick with cats!
However, at this moment, the great CEO, who was sick with cats, was in an extremely good mood. He personally cooked a dumpling in the pot and a rare faint smile appeared on his lips.
After the dumpling was cooked, he carefully scooped it up and placed it on the most exquisite bone china plate. He took a pair of silver chopsticks and sat in front of the desk.
After looking at it for a long time, he did not move his chopsticks.
In the end, when the dumpling was almost completely cold, he reluctantly picked it up and placed it in his mouth.
In an instant, it was as if Gu Qiqi was sitting opposite him, smiling like a flower and asking her, “JUNMO, is it good? If It’s good, I’ll Cook it for you every day in the future...”
Chu Junmo’s eyes turned hot, and tears welled up in his eyes!
It turned out that he had been reincarnated for all his life, and what he had hoped for was actually so simple -- that he could hold the hand of the woman he loved and taste the food she had made for him.
