Chapter 477: Chapter 477 Workaholic_1

After all these things which were extremely easy, Shen Dong stretched lazily, feeling there was no other day as wonderful as this. Yet another project worth hundreds of millions had emerged. The only question was, from where should he draw the investment? Not long ago, he had swindled an investment from Mr. Yang, but where could he rush to next?

The outline of the plan was already prepared, and now all he needed was to eat. However, his mind kept dwelling on work, and even during the meal, he seemed distracted.

When he had slathered sauce all over his face, Kang Yue, who was a bit of a clean freak, couldn’t stand to watch any longer. It was bad enough that he ate messily, but now with sauce smeared on his face, she could take no more. She promptly took out a tissue and reached over to wipe off the sauce, catching his gaze as she did.

"There, what’s the use of eating so absentmindedly? Just focus on finishing your meal. You should be having fun right now, you know? You told me we came out to relax, so stop thinking about work. You make me want to go back to work too. How about we hurry up and finish this meal, then head back to work?"

After wiping his face, Kang Yue dropped the tissue on the table, delivering her words with a deliberately sarcastic tone, signaling her discontent and wanting to make that clear. Shen Dong, on the other hand, was clueless about reading her unhappy expressions, thinking she was truly considerate of his needs.

Since she knew he was anxious to return to work, and it wasn’t even his suggestion, he thought to himself that he really needed to find such an outstanding woman. He looked at her gratefully, feeling he hadn’t made a mistake in his choice.

When he looked up, he saw her glaring at him ferociously, as if to say that if he dared to mention going back today, his head would tumble off. Shen Dong instinctively shrank back, admitting his mistake. Such a woman was truly terrifying.

Hadn’t she just said they could go back? Her expression was now so daunting that he hardly dared to speak. Kang Yue’s smile seemed to ask, "Do you want to get back to it? "

His smile faltered, and despite the seemingly warm expression, he could not utter the words to go back. It was as if they were hidden behind a polite smile, too frightening for words.

"Not at all, how could I possibly want to go back? It’s only been a short while since we came out. Going back now would be a total waste. Let’s stay out a bit longer. I’ll finish eating quickly, then we can take a walk by the riverbank. It’s been a while since we’ve gone for a stroll there."

Shen Dong realized Kang Yue was not pleased and quickly said that to make amends. He definitely couldn’t let her catch onto his real intentions.

Kang Yue just laughed, knowing he would react this way. She was too familiar with him. If he weren’t, he would probably have agreed to go back immediately, but she didn’t want to put him in a difficult position.

He had important work to do, and if a new development came to mind, he needed to promptly get back and work out a plan. Besides, there wasn’t much fun to be had outdoors, so she mockingly put her fate in her mouth, chewed with the intention of spitting it out, and thought there would be plenty of other opportunities to go out. Why cling to this one time?

"Alright, just kidding, let’s go straight back after eating. I have unfinished work too. We can’t keep procrastinating like this, and since you can’t help me, I really can’t afford to laze around anymore."

Having said that, she quickly finished her noodles, deeply moved. She knew that Kang Yue wouldn’t make things hard for him. Wasn’t it obvious by now?

The two left promptly after eating. The proprietor was overjoyed at how quickly they paid. Then he noticed a piece of paper left on the table. Upon inspection, he saw a schematic design that looked like it was for the city center—and the layout was quite innovative, to say the least.

But remembering it belonged to a customer, he didn’t dare to pry further. He folded the paper and set it aside, in case the customer returned to look for it, and thought it should be returned if so.

Once back, they dived into work again. Shen Dong wrote down his ideas freely, and it was time to start preparing. Even if the previous projects weren’t finished yet, new thoughts meant new plans.

Kang Yue didn’t say much; she would support him in whatever he wanted to do, just like she was doing now.

No matter how busy or tired she was, what mattered was his high returns. Everything else was secondary. After trying everything with the reports one by one, she realized how exhausting it was. But it was finished, and now it was just a matter of waiting for the funds to arrive to start investing in that plot of land. Then the returns would be substantial.

Having delivered the reports, Kang Yue quickly tossed them onto the table, swearing off seeing those numbers again. Every time she crunched them, her head felt like exploding. It was just too difficult. From now on, she vowed never to undertake such tasks again. Then she turned to see Shen Dong still writing the reports.

Could it be he was developing a new project? She dreaded the thought because it meant she would have to start over with these tasks, which were a hassle. But what could she do to stop him? These were duties that had to be done. Oh well, she thought, let it be.

This time, they were investing in something called "clubbing," which seemed intriguing and fun. She would love to try it someday, but that would have to wait.

Curious about what made this new venture exciting, Kang Yue walked over, placing the report on his desk, and said, "I’ve organized everything. Is there anything else you need my help with? If so, just let me know. I’m free to assist you."

Having said that, she stood by, waiting for his instructions. Shen Dong was still deliberating on the scale of the venture and how many people to hire. A bar’s success relied on attracting influencers, beautiful women, and handsome men, after
