“Not bad.” I am now in charge of the domestic market.

Ruan Yichen shrugged with a relaxed smile and asked Su Ni, “Why is Mr. Su here?”

Su Ni looked around and pretended to be calm, “The new official of Gu Lang has taken over. We have to come over to add fire to him.”

“Look, I forgot too.”

Ruan Yichen smiled and copied Su Ni’s tone.

“Actually, it’s not a big deal. I’ve already planned to leave.”

Li Mo was nowhere to be seen outside, so it was too late for her to catch up. It seemed like she could only go back to the hotel.

Ruan Yichen nodded, his hands in his pockets, and his face was elegant in glasses. “I didn’t see Mr. Gu today.”

“He… he’s still resting on it. I’m coming down to find my assistant to get something.”

Su Ni shook her bag and smiled.

“Oh.”

Ruan Yichen glanced at the bag behind Su Ni and believed, “Well, I’ll go to the meeting first. If I come to Beijing next time, I have to tell me in advance.”

“No problem.”

Su Ni laughed heartily.

After Ruan Yichen left, Su Ni also heaved a sigh of relief. Although she felt that it was a coincidence to meet Ruan Yichen this time, she thought about Ruan Yichen’s words carefully.

Su Ni waited for three days.

During that time, Li Mo was on time in the morning. Su Ni picked up the call in the afternoon, but Su Ni would never let go of the matter of leaving.

The two of them were completely frozen.

Even though Su Ni was free, she didn’t dare call An Rong. She hid in the hotel every day. As time went by, Kang’s mood became more irritable.

On the fourth day, Li Mo didn’t call in the morning. Su Ni was eating spaghetti as her fingers swiftly crossed the WeChat screen.

Gu Zechen still didn’t reply to last night’s text.

Bam!

The door was suddenly knocked.

Su Ni was shocked but she didn’t even have time to wear her shoes. She ran to the door barefoot and asked, “Who?”

There was no sound, but the knock on the door increased.

Through the cat’s eyes, she didn’t see anything.

At that moment, Su Ni’s heart reached her throat. She took a deep breath and turned to grab her phone, but the sound of a hurried knock was heard again.

“It’s me.”

Gu Zechen’s voice.

Su Ni’s nose ached and she felt like tears were about to fall. She quickly opened the door and grabbed his arm.

“Gu Zechen, where have you been in the past two days?”

Su Ni roared and held his arm tightly, unwilling to let go of anything.

Gu Zechen smiled when he saw Su Ni.

She reached her hand out to touch her face but was dodged by Su Ni. His hand finally stopped by Su Ni’s lips and wiped off the spaghetti.

“Let you go back first. Do you hide in the hotel every day to eat this?”Text © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

Gu Zechen asked.

“Gu Zechen, you still have the guts to say that I didn’t show up for four days in a row. You’re good at it…”

“I haven’t seen you for four days. You’ve been a lot more fierce.”

Gu Zechen still smiled.

Su Ni rolled her eyes and carefully examined Gu Zechen from start to finish. She confirmed that there were no missing arms and legs, but after she was a little tired, she became even more angry.

She abruptly shook off Gu Zechen’s hand and started packing up.

The sudden change made Gu Zechen at a loss.

“What are you doing?”

“Didn’t you ask me to go back to Nancheng city first? I think it through now. Some people have never cared about others anyway, so why should I worry about him every day?”

Su Ni stuffed everything into her bag. Finally, Gu Zechen grabbed her arm and whispered, “I was wrong this time. I didn’t expect to waste so much time.

“Hmph, you’re okay with just an apology?”

Su Ni wanted to yell ferociously, but her tears fell uncontrollably. There was a touch of heartache in Gu Zechen’s eyes and he reached his head to kiss her.

Su Ni turned her face and didn’t want to have much contact with him.

“Alright, I’m wrong.”

Gu Zechen knew that it was his mistake this time and made Su Ni worry for a few more days, so he stopped forcing her and apologized seriously.

Su Ni sulked her head, shook off Gu Zechen’s hand and stopped talking.

Gu Zechen pulled her into his arms and kissed her gently on his forehead, asking, “Has anyone come looking for you in the past two days?”

Su Ni shook her head.

For the past four days, she had been alone in the hotel, so she was so bored that she appeared at Gu Zechen’s place.

But after thinking about it, Su Ni mentioned, “But the next morning, I met Ruan Yichen. Coincidentally, he came to the hotel for a meeting.”

“Such a coincidence.”

The corner of Gu Zechen’s mouth raised.

“I also think it’s quite a coincidence.”

Su Ni nodded, then said, “But after that, I didn’t meet again.”

Gu Zechen nodded. The smile on his face was not as bright as before. He obviously restrained himself a little and said, “Let’s go back to Nancheng city.”

“You haven’t told me where you’ve been in the past two days. You can’t get through the phone, and Li Mo won’t tell me either.”

Su Ni’s face was stern. Who told him that he could leave now that his anger was gone.

“I’ll tell you when I’m free. At present, the capital is not the calm here that you see, so I asked you to return to Nancheng city early.

Gu Zechen’s attitude was modest and he explained what happened before, but Su Ni was still unhappy.

He was afraid for so many days. How could he solve it with an apology?

Gu Zechen helped her tidy up her clothes and saw the leftover spaghetti on the table.

“Let’s go.”

Gu Zechen took the luggage in Su Ni’s hand and held Su Ni’s shoulder with one hand. He met his soft and affectionate eyes.

Her heart instantly melted.

Her expression softened as well. With such a gaze, she could not care about anything else.

“Don’t be angry. Look at how hungry you are.”

He scratched Su Ni’s face and rubbed her hair. He had rare patience and comforted Su Ni with kind words.

Gu Zechen did not expect Su Ni to wait for him in the capital for so long.

It actually gave her a hint of anticipation.

Thankfully, nothing happened.

“Don’t be like this next time.”

In the elevator, Gu Zechen did not forget to remind him.

“You mean, you’re going missing next time?”

Su Ni quickly found the key point and asked unhappily.

Gu Zechen’s expression tightened and he quickly reacted. He hugged him tightly in his arms and kissed him gently on his forehead. Then he said, “No, I promise there won’t be a next time!”

Hmph!

Su Ni looked away.

When they came out of the hotel, they almost brushed past Ruan Yichen. Gu Zechen pulled Su Ni’s face and bit her lips.

At the same time, the two men looked at each other and Gu Zechen’s eyes were full of warning.
