His deep and sensual voice tickled her ear. “Eat your lunch.”
After that, he turned to leave the room.
Looking at the two figures that left together, Zuo Weiyi was still a little bit stunned.
Her heart was throbbing in pain when she remembered his words just now.
He would not love any other woman, right?
***
Zuo Weiyi had no appetite at all during lunchtime.
She returned her untouched meal to the washing station.
As she was about to return to the office, her phone rang.
She took out her phone and looked at the screen. When she saw the name on the phone screen, she was slightly shocked.
Shi babe.
Was he not eating with Tangteng Xi now? Why was he calling her?
She was confused, but still picked the call. “Hello?”
“Have you eaten?”
“Yeah.”
“I’m not returning to the office for the rest of the afternoon, go home earlier without me.”
Listening to the familiar voice from the other side, Zuo Weiyi’s heart throbbed.
Not returning to the office? Would he spend the entire afternoon with Tangteng Xi?
What did he say? ‘I will not love any other woman’?
How did the old saying go again? One would rather believe that the world had ghosts than a man’s words.
To that, she said ‘I agree’!
How long had he hung out with her? And he had already fallen for her?
Then again, what business did she had with whoever he was going out with?
But, why did her heart feel such pain…
“Hello?”
Shi Yuting frowned and opened his mouth when the other end was quiet for too long.
Zuo Weiyi snapped out of her thoughts, “Oh, got it.”
As soon as she answered, she put down her phone and hung up the call.
On the other hand, Shi Yuting who still had not finished his speech was staring at his phone with a shocked expression after hearing the beeping sound.
This woman dared to hang up first?
“Mr. Shi, your car has arrived.”
Xiang Yi’s voice called behind him. He turned his head around and put away his phone, walking out of the restaurant.
***
In the afternoon, Zuo Weiyi drove her Maserati from Dizun Building to Shi Residence.
As she entered the mansion, she was met with Shen Lanzhi who was about to leave with an expensive purse in her hand.
She was stunned. She did not know why but she had always felt awkward in front of Shi Yuting’s mother.
“Missu…”
“You’re not a maid here, you don’t have to call me that.”
Zuo Weiyi paused. A difficult question arose.
Then what should she call her?
‘Aunty’ did not seem right either.
She did not know how to address her, so she decided not to call her instead. Her eyelids dropped slightly as she bit her bottom lip.
Looking at her lowered head, Shen Lanzhi threw her a glance and walked away.
However, she stopped after taking just one step.
“Do you have time now?”
What?
Zuo Weiyi was stunned by her sudden question and looked up, staring at Shen Lanzhi.
“Me? Yes…”
“Come to my room.”
Shen Lanzhi said and returned to the living room, heading toward the second floor.
Zuo Weiyi stared at the figure that had entered the house once again with a baffled look and followed her after pausing half a second.
She arrived on the second floor. The door to Shen Lanzhi’s room was ajar. She paused before raising her hand and pushing the door open.
“Come and sit here, close the door.”
Zuo Weiyi turned and closed the door softly, yet her heart felt conflicted with so many feelings.
