Princess Is Glamorous In Modern Day Chapter 272 - Much Misses, Video Call

Chapter 272 - Much Misses, Video Call

Over the years, Jun Shiling had been used to going on business trips. He had been flying around the world. This was the first time he had resisted going on business trips so much.
Jun Shiling originally wanted to bring Xia Wanyuan along, but thinking that it would take nearly ten hours to go to France and that Xia Wanyuan seemed to have a publicity event to do tomorrow, he could only give up on the idea.
He called the manor and Uncle Wang answered. He said that Xia Wanyuan had gone to the swimming hall to exercise, so Jun Shiling hung up.
By the time Xia Wanyuan came out of the swimming pool, the sky had already darkened.
Old Master Jun sent a letter saying that he wanted to bring Xiao Bao to the quad for two days and that he missed his great-grandson.
"Where's Jun Shiling?" Xia Wanyuan touched her hungry stomach, thinking that they would start eating when Jun Shiling returned.
"Young Master went to France for a business trip. He must be on the plane by now." Uncle Wang asked the servants to serve the food as he replied.
"France? Okay." Xia Wanyuan had seen this country on the map before. It was very far away.
When she sat at the dining table and was alone in the huge dining room, Xia Wanyuan felt a little uncomfortable.
It had been a long time since she had eaten alone.
She subconsciously reached for the glass of water beside her, but it was empty. In the past, Jun Shiling would always place a glass of warm water by her hand before meals. Xia Wanyuan had no choice but to get up and pour herself a glass.
Xia Wanyuan liked to eat steamed prawns, but this time, no one peeled the shells for her. Xia Wanyuan was too lazy to do it herself, so she could only take a look at the prawn meat and drop the idea.
She picked up a piece of tofu and placed it in her bowl. The onions, ginger, and garlic on the tofu dripped onto the rice. Xia Wanyuan recalled that in the past few days, every time Jun Shiling picked up food for her, he would first remove the onions, ginger, and garlic that she did not like before putting them in her bowl.
It was as if nothing she ate was as delicious as before. Xia Wanyuan stopped after a few mouthfuls of food and went to the kitchen to bring a bowl of fruits upstairs.
Leaning on the sofa in the bedroom, Xia Wanyuan watched the Happy Sheep and ate the fruits. She felt that the faint pressure in her heart had not dissipated, so she put her phone aside and entered the bathroom to take a shower.
On the plane that had already left China, Jun Shiling ate two mouthfuls of food and lost his appetite.
Lin Jing glanced at Jun Shiling's expression.
"CEO Jun, the phone on this private plane has been specially modified. It can communicate via voice and video call with the outside world. Do you want to call home and tell me that you're safe? Madam might be worried about you,"
"Mm," Jun Shiling replied, then threw down his chopsticks and sat on the other end of the sofa. He pressed the reception button for the guest cabin, then turned on his phone and called Xia Wanyuan on WeChat.
"CEO Jun, I'm going back to the bedroom to eat." After speaking, Lin Jing picked up his bowl and left the cabin.
Lin Jing felt that when he retired in the future, he might be able to write a book, "The Self-Cultivation of a Light Bulb Special Assistant".
The phone rang for a long time. Jun Shiling was puzzled as to whether Xia Wanyuan had fallen asleep. The music had almost ended, and Jun Shiling was about to hang up when the phone was picked up.
"Jun Shiling? Why is there signal on the plane?" Xia Wanyuan was a little surprised. Didn't they say that they could not call each other on the plane? Xia Wanyuan had thought of calling Jun Shiling just now, but thinking that he might not be able to answer the phone, she gave up.
"I can do it on my side." They had clearly been separated for a few hours, but Jun Shiling acted as if he had not seen Xia Wanyuan for a long time. He glanced at Xia Wanyuan a few times before noticing that she had just taken a shower. Her hair was still half wet. "Why didn't you blow dry your hair?"
"Huh?" It was as if Xia Wanyuan had just realized that her hair was wet. She reached out to touch it and felt a patch of coldness. Her brows furrowed slightly, and her tone carried an unconscious coquettishness. "You're not here."
The unconscious dependence and habit in her words made Jun Shiling's heart ache and soften. He wanted to appear in front of Xia Wanyuan now and blow dry her hair as usual, but now, he could only look at her on the screen.
After Xia Wanyuan finished speaking, she felt that she was a little strange.
In her previous life, she was the one who relied on her younger siblings. No matter what happened, she would be the one to shoulder it. She had never relied on anyone else either. In the end, in the modern world, she was actually unwilling to blow dry her hair herself.
"Alright, go and dry your hair first. Be good. Don't catch a cold later. I'll wait for you." Jun Shiling's tone was exceptionally gentle today.
Although he was usually very gentle to Xia Wanyuan, Jun Shiling's gentle tone today was filled with doting. Just listening to him talk made Xia Wanyuan blush and her ears heat up.
Xia Wanyuan had interacted with many men in her two generations. She had good teachers, friends, relatives, and comrades, but she had never experienced such a scene when she interacted with Jun Shiling.
In Xia Wanyuan's world, there had never been the concept of love.
However, she felt that her relationship with Jun Shiling seemed to be different from those in the past. This relationship made her panic, but there was also a hint of joy from her panic.
"Mm." Xia Wanyuan placed the phone aside and went to get the hairdryer. She had always been used to others blowing her hair. Xia Wanyuan was still not used to it. It took her nearly twenty minutes to blow dry her hair.
Xia Wanyuan picked up her phone again. On the other end of the line, Jun Shiling was reading documents with his head lowered. On the paper beside him, there was already an entire page of notes.
Xia Wanyuan could not help but sigh. Only such a Jun Shiling could make the Jun Corporation reach its current scale.
"Why don't you do your work first? I won't disturb you anymore."
"I'm not busy." Hearing the commotion, Jun Shiling put down the brush in his hand and carefully looked at Xia Wanyuan's hair. After confirming that it had been dry, a smile appeared in his eyes. "Why are you blowing it so messily?"
"Of course I'm not as skilled as you." Xia Wanyuan sat on the bed and found a comfortable position to lie down. Her clothes pulled open a section of her fair collarbone, making it shine under the light.
"Mm, when I go back, you don't have to do it yourself." Jun Shiling's tone was still filled with tolerance and pampering, just like how Xia Wanyuan used to coax Xiao Bao. Xia Wanyuan's ears inexplicably burned.
]"What did you eat tonight?" Since Xia Wanyuan did not speak, Jun Shiling changed the topic.
"Shredded pork, prawns, and vegetables." After Xia Wanyuan finished speaking, she seemed to be complaining. "I didn't touch the prawns."
Jun Shiling's heart skipped a beat. He knew why she did not touch the prawns.
The gentle net that had been quietly set up had already begun to slowly close.
"Wait for me to come back," Jun Shiling only said this one sentence after hearing Xia Wanyuan's words, but Xia Wanyuan understood what he meant.
