Chapter 430 Picking up his wife from get off work
Back in bed, Han Xi didn't immediately continue their pre-sleep "activities." Instead, he held her in his arms and gently placed his palm on her flat stomach.
"Are you looking forward to it?" he murmured, his voice already tinged with sleepiness.
Xu Fangli adjusted to a more comfortable position in his arms: "What are you looking forward to?"
Han Xi's breathing gradually evened out: "The feeling of being a mother..."
His lips pressed against the back of her neck. "A life carrying our shared blood was born into this world... that feeling must be quite magical."
Xu Fangli smiled in the darkness and tightened her grip on his hand.
Outside the window, the first rays of dawn had already quietly climbed to the horizon, but in this private space tightly protected by curtains, the night seemed to linger a little longer.

"You are finally back!"
At 10 a.m., as soon as Fang Li entered the company, Wen Yang came to greet her.
He held her and wailed, "If you don't come back, I'm going to die here."
"what happened?"
Fang Li found it amusing and led the two of them into the office.
Upon entering, Wen Yang collapsed onto the office sofa, saying weakly, "The filming of 'The Divine Emperor' has officially begun. Unfortunately, Fan Zhe was unable to continue acting due to his injury. Wenxi Film and Television has recommended a new actor, who is also a newcomer but already has a certain fan base online."
"What did Sun Jin and the others say?"
"Everyone has met the person; they're quite intelligent, and they have no objections, except..."
Fang Li was organizing the pile of documents when she looked up at her: "What's wrong?"
Wen Yang said with a droopy face, "The filming of the short drama is not going well. The actors recruited at the last minute are all newcomers, and their acting skills vary. Shi Hang is almost driven crazy lately."
"With three dramas filming at the same time, the on-site coordination alone is giving us a headache. We have to deal with things on the Divine Emperor's Road side while also keeping an eye on things here. Shi Hang and Sun Jin's team members have been working two shifts these past few days, and I've been working non-stop with them for several days now."
Fang Li frowned.
"This won't do. If we expand too much, we'll have limited manpower. If we continue like this, the show might not even be finished before everyone collapses."
"What should I do?"
Wen Yang said, "The market is constantly changing. If we don't seize the opportunity, all our previous investments will be wasted."
"It's important to secure market share early, but talent is fundamental. We're not machines, how can we keep running non-stop? Besides."
Fang Li stood up and sat down next to Wen Yang: "Currently, our production team is indeed not enough. If we want to dominate the short drama market, we can't rely solely on Shi Hang and the others."
"You know a lot of people, so take a look around and see if there are any suitable people to help expand your team."
Wen Yang is a person with strong execution skills.
As soon as they finished talking and went outside, she grabbed her phone and started making calls in a flurry.
After Fang Li finished dealing with the pile of work from the past few days, she went to see Zhou Yufan.
"Senior, we're moving in tomorrow. This is also the official founding day of Xingli Film and Television. I'm thinking of holding a press conference to boost Xingli's reputation."
Zhou Yufan was dealing with work when he heard this. He looked up at her and said, "The media has been contacted. They are all people who have a good relationship with Li Yun. The banquet is set at Bochen Hotel. Wenxi Film and Television will send people over. As for the people in the industry, the invitations have been sent out. Whether they come or not is up to fate."
"You've arranged everything?!"
Fang Li was surprised.
As expected of her senior, and as expected of the treasure she brought back from abroad at great expense, he always thinks ahead of everything.
Zhou Yufan laughed: "If I can't even handle this little thing with so much of your money, I'm afraid I'll have nightmares tonight."
That afternoon, the moving team that Wen Yang had contacted in advance arrived at the company.
The employees packed up their important documents and personal belongings, along with company equipment, and the moving team moved most of everything in one afternoon.
At the same time, Xingyu also moved over.
Several days have passed since the wire accident, and when Shi Hang and Sun Jin were seen again, they no longer looked as worried as they had before.
But despite being two young men, they seemed much more composed after this incident.
"Now that we've moved here, we're officially family."
Fang Li smiled and shook hands with the two of them. Seeing that the employees from both companies were getting along well and helping each other organize their things, she asked, "Are there any problems with the cooperation with Wenxi Film and Television?"
Shi Hang: "No, the people on President Han's side are very professional. They've taught us a lot during this time."
"Wenxi Film and Television is, after all, one of the top film and television companies in China. You should learn from General Manager Chunxi's people. In the future, you will be the core of our Xingli Film and Television production team."
Sun Jin smiled shyly: "Don't worry, Mr. Xu, we will work hard to improve ourselves and won't let you down."
It was almost 8 p.m. when the company was finally mostly tidied up.
The employees left one after another, and Fang Li stayed behind to check everything one last time before turning off the lights and leaving.
She rubbed her aching neck, pushed open the glass door of the company, and stepped outside, where the chill of winter rushed towards her.
She squinted to adjust to the biting air before shrinking her neck and stepping down the stairs in her high heels. Three consecutive meetings today had made her temples throb, but the cold air seemed to help.
"Why are you out so late? Are you very tired?"
The deep, familiar voice made Xu Fangli look up abruptly.
Han Xi leaned lazily against his black Maybach, his white shirt sleeves rolled up to his elbows, revealing his well-defined forearms.
He was holding a cup of milk tea, the special jasmine milk green tea from her favorite shop.
"Didn't you see the WeChat message I sent you? I could have gone back by myself, why did you come all this way?" Xu Fangli jogged over, her high heels clicking lightly on the marble floor.
Han Xi straightened up and casually took her briefcase: "It's only right that I pick up my wife from get off work."
He handed her the milk tea, the warm cup pressed against Fang Li's cold palm, instantly warming her heart.
"Three-tenths sugar, no tapioca pearls, but with coconut jelly."
Xu Fangli took a big gulp through the straw, and the sweet jasmine fragrance instantly diluted the bitterness of the coffee in her mouth.
She noticed that Han Xi's tie was a little loose, obviously he had just come from a formal occasion.
"The board meeting ended early?"
She reached out to straighten his tie, her fingertips brushing against his prominent Adam's apple.
Han Xi grasped her wrist, his thumb gently stroking her pulse: "I've skipped the last item on the agenda."
He leaned down and whispered in her ear, "I'm so thinking about you I can't even look at the financial statements."
Ever since their marriage was finalized, this man's words have seemed to have leveled up; a single sentence from him can make her blush and her heart race, leaving her speechless.
