Chapter 141: 141. Truly a top-notch dark and introverted man.
Shi Yuhuan leaned back in his office chair, casting an indifferent look at Song Qinghuan, the corner of his mouth curved subtly.
Suddenly, he stood up and headed towards the attached lounge.
As soon as the lounge door was shut, Song Qinghuan stood up frantically, and jabbed her pen furiously towards the direction Shi Yuhuan had disappeared into.
Quickly, she pulled out her phone and dialed Zhan Cheng, “I’m sorry, Zhan Cheng, I may not be able to have dinner with you.”
Zhan Cheng, who had been waiting, suddenly grew angry, “What’s the issue now?”
Feeling guilty, Song Qinghuan said, “There’s an unexpected matter, I have to work overtime…”
Zhan Cheng’s voice hardened, “How long will it take, I can wait for you.”
At this moment, he assumed Song Qinghuan had suddenly backtracked, no longer willing to go out to dinner with him, hence the lame excuse.
Song Qinghuan replied, “Don’t wait for me, you should go eat first, I won’t be able to leave anytime soon.”
Zhan Cheng was genuinely angry, he sneered icily, “Qinghuan, are you deliberately making excuses not to eat with me, or did you regret agreeing to dine with me and concocted a last-minute excuse to refuse…”
Song Qinghuan frowned, biting her lip, “Zhan Cheng, do you really think me capable of that?”
“…” Zhan Cheng didn’t respond, abruptly ending the call and driving away in a huff.
Song Qinghuan was utterly agitated. She tried calling him back to no avail.
“Stupid Zhan Cheng, getting angry this easily!” she muttered under her breath. She stopped dialing, her gaze clouded over as she returned to her task.
Back in his lounge, Shi Yuhuan was lying on the bed, his jacket off and wearing a white shirt with the top two buttons lazily undone. His arm draped elegantly over his eyes for shade.
He could clearly hear Song Qinghuan’s voice and every word she said.
At her last statement, the corner of his handsome mouth curved into a charming, amused smile.
Meanwhile, Qinghuan was working on her list, complaining continuously, until midnight. She was tired and hungry and couldn’t hold it any longer, so she decided to close her eyes and rest against the back of her chair.
But she didn’t expect to while away into a deep sleep, resting her head on the desk.
Seeing there was no movement for a long time, Shi Yuhuan got up, his tall figure casting a long shadow on the floor as he walked out leisurely.
When he saw Song Qinghuan sleeping soundly on her desk, his icy eyes suddenly softened. n𝚘𝚟𝚙𝚞𝚋.𝚌o𝚖
Despite leaving the heating on in the office, she seemed to be cold in her sleep, as Song Qinghuan’s body suddenly shivered.
Taken aback, Shi Yuhuan returned to the lounge, fetched his jacket, and gently draped it over her.
