Chapter 1064: Chapter 1065: Find Somewhere to Shelter from the Rain First
The door is locked. How can she get in!?
Staring at the closed door in front of her, Huo Yishan couldn’t help but feel discouraged, her face crestfallen.
Then, she took out her phone and dialed Li Yuan’s number.
Upon hearing the ringing of his phone again, Li Yuan looked down, and seeing those familiar characters, he curved his lips into a smile and answered, "What’s up?"
Just about to enter the elevator, he chose to pause.
Because once in the elevator, the cell phone signal would be lost.
Beside him, Secretary Zhou couldn’t help but feel anxious, as on the way, a sudden rockfall had delayed them, making them 20 minutes late for their scheduled time!
But Li Yuan remained calm, leisurely chatting with Huo Yishan on the phone.
However, upon hearing her next words, the relaxed expression on his face froze, "You forgot to take the keys?"
"Yes..." Looking at the tightly closed yard door, although it was a code lock, she remembered the carved living room door required a key.
"Are both the yard and living room doors locked?"
"Uh-huh..." Realizing her oversight, Huo Yishan lowered her head guiltily.
When she left, she only thought that it was his villa, so she was extra careful, locking both doors tightly, completely unaware that she didn’t have the keys.
"The maid?"
"What?" Huo Yishan didn’t immediately process it.
"Didn’t I hire a maid?"
Huo Yishan blinked her large eyes, then recalled that when Li’s mother left, she did mention this, but she hadn’t seen the maid arrive until midday.
"I didn’t wait for her."
Li Yuan furrowed his brows slightly, "So you went out for lunch?"
She nodded, "Yeah."
Li Yuan couldn’t help but feel distressed; if only the yard door were locked, at least the password could be entered, but the living room door required a key to open.
Looking at the main entrance of the resort hotel, if he rushed back now, it would take at least two and a half hours. But if he didn’t go back, she wouldn’t have a place to stay.
Thunder——!!
Suddenly, a clap of thunder sounded, startling the two people on the phone to look up simultaneously.
In Fancheng, which was clear in the morning, the sky was now covered with dark clouds.
Judging by this trend, certainly a storm was coming.
Holding the phone, Li Yuan walked toward the hotel entrance, the sky above equally overcast.
Thinking about the moment when Huo Yishan, ’homeless,’ had to face the storm cloud, his heart tightened, and he immediately decided, "Find a place to wait out the rain, I’m heading back right now."
Regaining her composure upon looking at the dim sky, Huo Yishan asked, "Are you coming back?"
"Yes."
"President Li!" Hearing him say he was coming back, Secretary Zhou felt it was inappropriate.
Because this meeting involved a very important client, concerning whether he could take down Li Mingsen, this was crucial to success. If he went back now, wouldn’t it be futile?
"You’ve waited so hard for this opportunity, going back now would be a waste!"
Li Yuan looked at Xiaozhou, then hung up the phone, "Opportunities will come again."
Finished speaking, he walked straight toward the main entrance of the hotel.
On the other end of the call, Huo Yishan clearly heard Secretary Zhou’s words, also confirming that he wasn’t going to take wedding photos with Ruan Qiuting, but was going somewhere to work with Secretary Zhou?
With the call disconnected, Huo Yishan quickly dialed again.
Just as Li Yuan reached the main entrance, a torrential rain suddenly poured down, making him halt immediately, unable to proceed further.
