His movement was very light, and he couldn't pull it open. He was a little strange. He tried to pull harder, but he still couldn't pull it open.
"Aren't you sleeping? Why aren't you talking?" He sat down by the bed, took off his suit and threw it on the sofa.
While untying his tie, he glanced at his wife on the bed and wondered: "Xiao Xiao!?"
She remained motionless under the covers
Gao Shenran reached out to pull the sheet on her head again, but he pulled it away at this moment. He saw Ji Xiaoxiao resting his palm on her face, covering her entire face.
"Are you angry? I'm sorry. I wanted to come back earlier, but everyone held me back."
He gently smoothed her hair, thinking that she must be losing her temper when he returned home at night. At noon, he promised her that he would come back early to talk to her about tomorrow's examination.
"Actually, I rarely do this. It just happened that I had something to worry about these two nights, so I came home so late."
He explained to her on his own, hoping that she wouldn't be angry again. It's not good to make yourself angry.
Ji Xiaoxiao remained still and ignored him, as if she was really sleeping.
Gao Shenran sighed and pinched her chin playfully: "You go to bed, I will chat with you after I take a shower."
He stood up and went to the dressing room to get clothes. When he came back, he saw that the sheet was put back on her head again.
He couldn't help but laugh. His little wife was really childish and very cute.
…
The next morning, when Gao Shenran woke up, Ji Xiaoxiao was no longer around.
He looked around the room in shock, but did not find her figure, so he called to the dressing room: "Xiao Xiao?"
The bathroom door is open, obviously she can't be in there
No one answered for a while, and no one came out.
He lifted up the sheets and got out of bed, bare legs, and walked out of the room. When he passed by the study, he opened the door and went in. Ji Xiaoxiao was not there either.
He walked out and headed towards Su Xian's room. He listened quietly outside the door for a while, but there was no sound.
After walking through the corridor, he came to the spiral staircase and looked into the living room and dining room below, but he could not find his wife either.
Where did it go?
When Pingjin Xiaojuan came into the room to help her wash up, he would always hear her getting up.
Today, I didn’t even notice the sound of her getting up and washing up.
Was he less alert, or did Ji Xiaoxiao leave the room without washing up?
