In the afternoon, after Cheng Nuo woke up from his nap, he sat in the yard and basked in the sun.
Being illuminated by the warm sunshine, Cheng Nuo felt a little sleepy again. He leaned lazily on the chair, closed his eyes and enjoyed the sunshine while taking a sleepy nap.
It wasn't until he heard the sound of a car getting closer that Cheng Nuo opened his eyes and turned his head to look over.
He Zikai's car slid into the villa yard and parked in the parking space.
He Zikai got out of the car and immediately saw Cheng Nuo and walked straight over.
"You're back." Cheng Nuo rubbed his sleepy eyes, stood up, and said.
He Zikai did not answer immediately. He stood still in front of Cheng Nuo and looked at her seriously for a while before asking coldly, "Why are you sleeping here?"
Although the weather today is good, it does occasionally blow. She looked like she had just woken up.
He Zikai's eyes were staring straight at her. She had better be thankful that she didn't catch a cold.
"No, I was bored in the house today and wanted to get some fresh air, but I fell asleep just sitting here." Cheng Nuo explained, his voice still a little sleepy, sounding like a spoiled child.
When He Zikai heard her soft voice, he didn't really blame her in his heart, but he had an indescribable feeling towards her.
At this moment, she was like a child, explaining childishly. The more she looked at her, the more she felt... beautiful.
He Zikai took off his suit jacket and put it on Cheng Nuo, worried that she would catch a cold due to the cold wind just after she woke up.
"Come into the house..." He Zikai said, but his cold tone was an order.
"Oh." Cheng Nuo responded, his mind's reaction was half a beat slower, but his hand was already pulled by He Zikai and he walked towards the villa.
He Zikai's steps were not big. Knowing that she was not feeling well, he tried his best to accommodate her, walking very slowly and with small steps.
…
After dinner, Cheng Nuo planned to sit in the living room and watch a variety show, but before he could reach the living room, He Zikai carried him upstairs.
"I'm not sleepy yet and don't want to sleep." Cheng Nuo resisted and said that he had a lot of rest today and he really didn't feel sleepy at all.
He Zikai glanced at the woman in his arms, and without stopping, he opened his thin lips and said, "Take a bath with me."
"Why do you want me to take a bath with you?" Cheng Nuo was a little angry and a little surprised.
This man is really weird. Do you need someone to accompany you when taking a bath?
"Mandarin duck bath." He Zikai simply threw out three words, walked into the bedroom, and went straight to the bathroom.
"..." Cheng Nuo felt his head hurt instantly.
Can't this man think more normally?
…
On Monday morning, when the alarm rang, both He Zikai and Cheng Nuo woke up.
"Get up." Cheng Nuo squinted his eyes and pushed He Zikai away with both hands.
After sleeping in this man's arms all night, it's time to let go.
He Zikai opened his eyes, looked at the woman beside him, and felt a sense of relief.
Cheng Nuo got out of bed, walked to the bathroom in his pajamas, and started to wash up.
He Zikai then got out of bed and followed him to the bathroom.
After the two of them washed up, He Zikai changed his clothes and Cheng Nuo tied his tie.
"Can you go to work with your health like this?" He Zikai asked, although his tone was calm, his heart was full of concern.
Last night in the bathroom, I checked her wound again. It was better than before, but it still made me feel distressed.
I want to keep her at home, raise her, and let her live a life where she can put food on the table and open her mouth.
"Okay." Cheng Nuo replied, his mood very calm, "As long as we don't walk too much."
"I'll take you to the company." He Zikai said, feeling uneasy after all.
"No, it's convenient for me to drive myself." Cheng Nuo said, feeling that this man was a bit like a mother-in-law, but in his heart, he felt relaxed and happy.
Although his tone was cold and there was no trace of smile or worry on his face, his words sounded domineering and caring.
Does he really care about himself?
He Zikai looked at Cheng Nuo's face, and in the end, he gave in to her wishes and just said, "If you need something, call me."
"Um……"
…
He Yi Empire, one morning, An Lin accompanied He Zikai to a meeting. At the meeting, He Zikai issued several more orders, acquired several debt-operated companies, and made some arrangements for foreign projects.
An Lin stood not far behind He Zikai, obeying his summons and instructions at any time.
Suddenly, He Zikai's cell phone in An Lin's hand vibrated. An Lin raised his hand and looked at it, his expression immediately became tense.
An Lin did not hesitate and quickly took two steps forward and stood next to He Zikai. While an executive was reporting on his work, An Lin slightly bent down and said in He Zikai's ear, "Mr. He, please call Miss Liu."
After saying that, An Lin handed over the phone.
He Zikai turned his eyes and saw the name displayed on the screen of his mobile phone.
He Zikai took the phone indifferently, stared at it seriously for a few seconds, and finally pressed reject.
It is my policy not to answer the phone at work.
And she was her exception before, but now, she is not.
He Zikai muted his cell phone and then continued the meeting while still standing aside.
An hour later, the meeting came to an end.
"I want to see the results in two weeks." He Zikai's cold reminder rang throughout the conference room, "If the expected results are not achieved, you can leave this building."
Everyone sitting around the conference table did not dare to say a word, and some timidly lowered their heads. They did not even dare to look at the chief boss at the top of the conference table.
He Zikai stood up and walked out of the conference room with steady steps.
An Lin quickly stepped forward, took the documents and mobile phone on the table, and followed He Zikai's footsteps.
…
Back in the office, He Zikai sat on the rotating office chair and pressed his hand between his eyebrows. He was obviously tired.
After a four-hour meeting, your mind is always running at high speed. How can you not be tired?
"Mr. He, your mobile phone." An Lin said, placing the mobile phone in front of He Zikai.
Having been with He Zikai for many years, An Lin naturally understands He Zikai. Even though he is married now, Liu Ziying's position in his heart should not have changed, right?
That's why I had to remind him to prevent the bad-tempered Miss Liu over there from getting angry.
When He Zikai heard An Lin's words, he suddenly opened his eyes. As if he realized something, he immediately took the phone and opened the screen. There were several missed calls, all from one person.
He Zikai called back.
An Lin saw him put his hand next to his ear, gestured wisely, then turned and left the office.
The call was connected, but there was no sound on the other end.
He Zikai didn't speak first, and the two of them just waited quietly.
"Why did you hang up on me?" After waiting for a long time, He Zikai was about to speak when he heard a voice coming from the phone. (To be continued)
