Chapter 187: Chapter 187: He Went on a Business Trip
While she was lost in thought, Shen Yushan nudged her and whispered, “Zhixi, it’s about time, let’s go to the cafeteria.”
Su Zixi snapped back to reality, nodded, packed up her things, and left the library with her.
“Have you noticed? The food in the cafeteria has become especially delicious lately.” Shen Yushan said with her mouth watering, “I wonder what kind of top chef they’ve hired, it’s really…”
Su Zixi also found it strange. She had been away from school for just over a week, yet the cafeteria’s food quality had improved so much. Originally, she thought she would have no appetite, but she ended up eating a lot at every meal…
She felt she might have gained weight.
Would He Jingyao be angry if he knew that instead of losing weight after she left, she had actually gained weight?
No, no, that man hadn’t even taken the initiative to contact her once until now… Thinking this, Su Zixi couldn’t help but sigh deeply.
It was she who had chosen to leave, yet now she was actually hoping that he would take the initiative to come looking for her…
“Missing your husband again?” Shen Yushan glanced at her.
“No…” Su Zixi flatly denied, “I am not thinking about him at all!”
“Tsk tsk, there’s no shame in admitting it!” Shen Yushan teased her, “You’re a married couple! You fight at one end of the bed and make up at the other! Go back and seduce him! I guarantee he won’t be mad at you anymore!”
“…Why do you make it sound like it’s my fault!” Su Zixi got upset.
“If he had done something to wrong you, he would definitely have come looking for you already,” Shen Yushan analyzed calmly, “And look at you, sighing all day long, one minute daydreaming, the next minute regretting, even a fool could tell it’s definitely your fault.”
Su Zixi was at a loss for words.
Indeed, it was her fault.
What if he was really mad, or even… never came to see her again?
Thinking this, Su Zixi suddenly felt a wave of panic in her heart!
“Yushan, go eat by yourself, I have something to do,” Su Zixi suddenly said.
“I just remembered there was a problem with the report I wrote last night. I need to go to the office…” Su Zixi said, then left Shen Yushan behind and ran off.
Shen Yushan stared at her retreating back in astonishment and muttered after a long moment, “If you want to reconcile with him, just say it…”
Driven by an impulse, Su Zixi took a taxi to the HI Group.
She sneaked to the CEO’s private elevator, entered the code, and went inside… She had not known why He Jingyao would set up such an elevator before, but now she understood the reason.
Was he in a meeting now, or was he having lunch?
After seeing her, what would he say? Would he mock her? Would he ignore her?
Su Zixi had no idea what she would say once she saw him… But all the uncertainty could not overcome her impulse to see him.
The elevator went straight to the top floor.
Su Zixi walked into the office, cautiously observed her surroundings – the assistants were all buried in their work… She was about to sneak in, when Adam saw her, stood up in surprise, and said, “Young Mistress, what brings you here today?”
“I mean, can’t I come?” Su Zixi got upset. She used to visit the office several times everyday until recently; could it be that Adam had forgotten that in just three days?
“You didn’t know?” Adam looked even more surprised, “The president isn’t in the office today, he’s on a business trip.”
Su Zixi was startled.
“Where did he go? When did he leave?” Su Zixi asked urgently.
