Seeing Qin Zixin coming down from the second floor, the housekeeper smiled and said.
Qin Zixin was confused that the housekeeper was the only one left at home, and asked quickly, "Where have mom and Ranran gone?"
The housekeeper replied, "The old lady knew that Mr. Ji was coming back today, so she asked everyone to go out. She said she would be back very late and gave the time to Mr. Ji and the young lady."
Qin Zixin was embarrassed, "What about Qian Qian and Ran Ran's two children?"
The housekeeper said, "The children are also going out with the old lady. The lady said that the young lady should not worry and enjoy the world between you and Mr. Ji."
Qin Zixin was very embarrassed and could only nodded, "Yeah."
The butler immediately left.
After the housekeeper left, Qin Zixin seemed to be the only one left in the big house, which seemed very peaceful.
Qin Zixin casually picked up a magazine and sat in the living room next to the floor-to-ceiling window. From this position, she could see the door of the villa. As long as Ji Lingtian's car drove into the villa, she would be able to see it immediately.
Qin Zixin was in a good mood, looking at the magazine, but her mind was sketching out the surprises he could imagine that she could create...
She really wanted him to come back soon...not only did she want to see what birthday surprise he had prepared for her, but she also wanted to see him.
Time passed slowly, from morning to afternoon, and then from afternoon to evening, Qin Zixin sat in the living room waiting for Ji Lingtian to come back, but until the night fell, Ji Lingtian's car still had not entered Guanzhai.
Finally, at eight o'clock in the evening, the housekeeper came to Qin Zixin and asked in a low voice, "Young Madam, Mr. Ji hasn't come back so late. Should you give Mr. Ji a call?"
Qin Zixin closed the magazine she was reading again and glanced at the door of the villa, "No need."
"But……"
Qin Zixin smiled at the housekeeper, "It's okay, you can go down!"
"You've been sitting here waiting all day without eating anything..."
Qin Zixin still smiled calmly, "I'll wait for him to come back, and I'll eat with him."
A birthday surprise, a candlelight dinner should be indispensable, right? It's worth it for her to be hungry now for the candlelight dinner.
"Well, if you have any instructions, just call me and I will be outside the door."
"OK."
After the hall became quiet again, Qin Zixin looked towards the villa door with a faint smile.
Because it was night, the door of the villa was already lit with dim yellow lights.
The lights were dim and the night was intoxicating. Qin Zixin couldn't help but feel a little trance and fell into a beautiful longing.
He must have come back so late on purpose...
He thought she didn't know he had created a birthday surprise for her, so he deliberately came back late to make her depressed and disappointed. Then when her mood hit its lowest point, he would show up holding flowers and give her a big surprise.
…
Thinking of this, Qin Zixin smiled and picked up the mobile phone placed aside, dialed Ji Lingtian's number and put it to her ear.
Toot, toot—
The call is being connected.
However, the phone rang many times, but no one answered.
Qin Zixin put down her phone and stopped calling, still with a faint smile on her face.
Since he wants to create such a big surprise, then she should cooperate with him.
----------------------------------------------
Qin Zixin actually waited until eleven o'clock in the evening.
No one expected that at eleven o'clock, everyone in the Guan family would come back, but Ji Lingtian hadn't come back yet.
Qin Zixin was glad that she had returned to her room before the rest of the Guan family came back, otherwise it would have been awkward to face them alone.
Knock, knock.
Suddenly there was a sound from the door.
Qin Zixin, who had been standing by the window looking at the door of the villa, naturally knew that the person knocking on the door was not Ji Lingtian, so she opened the door with a smile.
The person standing outside the door was indeed Qu Ranran.
"sister……"
"Um?"
"I heard from the servant that my brother-in-law hasn't come back yet?" Qu Ranran asked in disbelief.
"Um."
"Why hasn't my brother-in-law come back yet? It's almost twelve o'clock, and your birthday is almost over..."
Even after waiting for a whole day, Qin Zixin still maintained a good mood at this time, "It's not over yet..."
"But even if it's a surprise, this time is too short, right? I'm still thinking about your love during the day and the candlelight dinner at night. Where is the time now?"
"Okay, okay, I see you are sleepy. Go to bed quickly. You don't have to worry about my birthday..."
"But my brother-in-law hasn't come back yet..."
"I'll call him now, okay? Go to bed quickly..."
Qin Zixin pushed Qu Ranran out of the room and closed the door.
At this moment, she finally leaned against the door panel tiredly.
After waiting for a day, I didn't receive a call from him, and I didn't know when he would come back. Although I knew deep down that he wanted to give her a surprise, I always felt a little disappointed when she didn't get the surprise.
Qin Zixin looked at the clock on the wall again.
Before I knew it, it was already half past eleven in the evening.
Qin Zixin walked slowly to the bed and sat down on the edge with a sad expression.
To be honest, if she hadn't known that he had special arrangements tonight, she would have been very disappointed today...
Guan's mother had already given her a birthday gift last night. Ranran and Guan Hao also gave her a gift. Even Qianqian made a birthday card for her... Her birthday,
He is the only thing missing.
Leaning slumped on the bedside, Qin Zixin began to stare blankly at the door.
She believed that he would definitely come back before twelve o'clock, and he would never miss her birthday, but it was just not the time to surprise her yet...
With such thoughts in mind, Qin Zixin waited silently. He didn't know how long it took, but finally there was a slight sound of footsteps outside the door.
Judging from the steady sound of the footsteps, Qin Zixin immediately recognized that it was Ji Lingtian's footsteps...
Feeling happy, Qin Zixin quickly jumped out of bed and ran to the door of the room.
Sure enough, the door was opened, and Ji Lingtian's tall figure appeared in front of Qin Zixin.
Qin Zixin looked at Ji Lingtian with a smile and jumped into Ji Lingtian's arms.
Ji Lingtian obviously didn't expect Qin Zixin to react like this, so he instinctively caught her.
She straddled him, put her hands around his neck, and smiled, "It will be twelve o'clock soon. I thought you wouldn't come back..."
Ji Lingtian hugged Qin Zixin and looked at her with deep black eyes.
Qin Zixin only felt that Ji Lingtian looked at her very deeply tonight, and did not notice anything strange at all. She urged him, "Hurry up and take me back to the room..."
Ji Lingtian finally walked into the room holding Qin Zixin.
Qin Zixinwu thought that the next step would be a firewood hunt or the birthday surprise she had been waiting for...
She never expected that he just hugged her and put her on the bed. There was no next step or surprise. He just asked her casually, "Why aren't you asleep yet?"
She was stunned on the bed, only seeing him unbuttoning his shirt and tie, and not looking at her more.
From full of expectations to disappointment after waiting all day, to now...
If there was a surprise, she didn't want such torture.
Qin Zixin immediately jumped off the bed and reached out to hug him who was taking off his watch. "I don't want to play anymore, Ling Tian..." She looked up at his handsome face, full of expectation.
Ji Lingtian looked at her beautiful face looking up at him, and then realized that she had deliberately dressed up today.
With exquisite makeup and a white dress, she already had such a stunning effect just by dressing up a little. However... at this moment, he could no longer look directly at her as affectionately as usual.
He didn't hug her back, he just looked at her and said in a low voice, "What's wrong?"
His cold tone made her stiffen slightly.
He felt the changes in her body, but he didn't seem to care.
She saw a hint of indifference in his eyes, and suddenly she let go of her arms around him.
He still didn't react much, just looked at her very casually.
She stared deeply at his handsome face, and then realized that his face did not have the gentleness she had imagined, but was replaced by obvious alienation and indifference. In his eyes, there was still a trace of...
Negative emotions.
Qin Zixin couldn't understand the changes in him at this moment. She grabbed her dress helplessly and could only force herself to smile, "It's nothing... you said you would come back today, why are you so late?"
Ji Lingtian turned around and unbuttoned his cufflinks, and replied indifferently, "The company has something to do."
Qin Zixin originally wanted to say something more, but suddenly the words were stuck in her throat and she couldn't say anything.
Then she saw him walking into the bathroom. Before entering the bathroom, he never took the initiative to say a word to her.
Until the sound of rushing water came from the bathroom, she still stood there in a daze, her body seemed to be frozen and she could no longer move.
