Chapter 93: 93, He does as he pleases, she swallows her anger
Song Qinghuan didn’t want Song Ci to know that she was already married. After some thought, she gently said, “He’s my boss.”
She felt that saying so was not wrong, as he was indeed her superior, in addition to being her husband in name.
She believed hiding one thing and substituting it with another was not only what she desired, but also what Shi Yuhuan wanted.
Shi Yuhuan gave her a quick glance, said nothing, lifted his foot, did an about-turn, and strode off. His movements were swift and decisive.
Yet there was a thread of unexplained oddity about him, an oddity that even Shi Yuhuan himself couldn’t comprehend.
Song Ci, upon hearing that he was Song Qinghuan’s boss, had intended to politely greet him and urge him not to blame Song Qinghuan.
Unexpectedly, Shi Yuhuan left behind a chilling and haughty silhouette.
At this point, Song Ci started to worry: “Sis, is it that serious? Would you lose your job because of this?”
Wu Yanxiang, her brows creased in anxiety, watched Song Ci’s apprehensiveness. Without further thought, she hurried over to Shi Yuhuan, blocking his way with an endearing smile arched like a crescent. Her voice was girlish as she jumped into defending Song Qinghuan, “Hello, please don’t be upset. My sister works very hard; please don’t hold it against her.”
Song Qinghuan, in a state of disarray, quickly went over saying, “Little girl, thanks for your good intentions, but you better get back to school with Song Ci. You don’t need to worry about my problems.”
Having said that, she pulled Shi Yuhuan up and walked away.
Shi Yuhuan did not resist but followed Song Qinghuan to the parking space, his gaze complex as he watched Song Qinghuan.
Throughout the journey home, Shi Yuhuan remained as silent as a frosted wall, making Song Qinghuan very uncomfortable. She sneaked glances at him several times, but dared not say a word.
She concluded that Shi Yuhuan was upset because she took the day off and nothing came out of it.
As the car entered the villa area, she couldn’t hold it in any longer, “I didn’t know things would turn out this way. Please don’t give me the cold shoulder. I’ll work extra hours tomorrow to make up for today’s leave.”
Shi Yuhuan still didn’t respond to her, keeping his eyes straight ahead and focusing on driving.
After parking the car in the courtyard, without glancing at Song Qinghuan, he turned and went to his place.
Song Qinghuan watched his retreating figure, curling her lips before heading back to her own room.
At dinner, Shi Yuhuan had the same cold demeanor, acting as if he couldn’t care less about her.
Everything seemed to have returned to the way it was initially; the way they interacted on the first day Song Qinghuan moved in.
“What an attitude…” Watching his receding figure, Song Qinghuan grumbled in a low voice, venting her frustration.
She admitted she couldn’t stand up to this aloof man, for he could do as he pleased while she had to swallow her pride. She wondered if she had owed him in a previous life.
