Si Zheng Ting picks up his phone and checks his inbox, there is no message from her.
He opens his call registry next, and there is no missed call as well.
He frowns before getting up, picking up his coat, “Let’s go.”
There is a bus stop in front of Di Hao Group’s building.
Zhuang Nai Nai stands there, checking her phone. The bus will come here 10 minutes from now.
She takes a deep breath while staring at the streetlight in front of her in a daze.
Will she be able to ask Si Zheng Ting about the mealbox after she returns home?
She bites her lips. It is at that time that the bus stop is lit up by a car’s headlights. The car is heading out of Di Hao Group’s underground parking lot. She realizes that there are actually more than one car.
A silver Maybach stops right in front of her.
The window rolls down, revealing Si Zheng Ting’s face. His face glows under the dim light as he coldly says, “Get in.”
Her eyes light up as she stares at him in excitement, “You have only finished working as well?”
Black lines appear on Ji Chen’s face as he listens to their conversation from the car behind the Maybach.
Mr. Si has been waiting for you, alright..
Mr. Si, on the other hand, nods lightly at her.
Zhuang Nai Nai boards the car, as it brings them back towards Si Family Manor.
Beijing night life flashes through the car’s window, Zhuang Nai Nai’s eyes feel heavy. She turns to glance at Si Zheng Ting only to find him sitting straight on his seat, looking really handsome.
This man probably looks perfect from any angle.
Just as she thinks of that, he turns his head around, facing the window. She can only see the back of his head.
Zhuang Nai Nai: ………………
What she does not see is his reddening ears. Even his expression looks unnatural at the moment.
She ponders over the mealbox that he sent her earlier tonight. She wonders how she should thank him, “This…. You must have worked hard. Take care of your health.”
After she says that, the car plunges into a painful silence.
Her face turns red at being pointedly ignored.
This bas*ard!
She will not speak to him from now on!
While she is busy lamenting over her pitiful state, he suddenly speaks, “How is your first day at work?”
Zhuang Nai Nai is stunned. Is he worried about her?
She is suddenly overwhelmed with emotions. Just as she is about to reply him, he speaks first, “Do not misunderstand me, I am just concerned over the welfare of my staff.”
Zhuang Nai Nai: ……………..
It is only wishful thinking on her part. The excitement that envelops her earlier on immediately dies down.
But—- Why did he feel the need to justify his question?
She turns to him who is turning his back on her. She suddenly says, “Not putting ginger in mealboxes is also a way of showing concern to your staff’s welfare?”
Haha
