It's already past 12:00 pm but Xi Ana is still not in the office, he already finished some of his works that needs urgent attention so that he can enjoy his alone time with his wife.
He took a glance at the clock the clock once again, since she didn't inform him that she will not be going anymore he just ȧssumed that she's late due to some circumstances and so he grabbed some documents to be reviews just in case Xi Ana comes it will be easier to put it down.
The medicine that Feng Jinnian brought this morning which Xi Ana told him to buy did its works and his headache decreased a lot and it did not hinder him from doing his works for today.
Hopefully Xi Chen was able to get home safely.
Before he left he had already prepared a set of fresh clothes for him and when he sent a message asking if he could borrow a car he just immediately agreed since he was the one who drove last night and it will be too much of a trouble if Xi Chen would ask someone to fetch him from Imperial.
He was still in the middle of reviewing the document at hand when Feng Jinnian entered his office and from the looks of it what he might be saying is about Xi Ana, "Young Master, I've been told that Young Madame has already entered the executive elevator and she will be here in a while."
Indeed, it was about Xi Ana and hearing this made him smile like a lovesick person, the mere fact that Xi Ana took the time to go here just to have lunch with him because he had a headache this morning is enough to make him happy.
He was confused when he saw Feng Jinnian staring at him in a daze and so he asked, "Why? Is there something wrong?"
Feng Jinnian was slightly startled when his boss suddenly asked him if there is something wrong. He shrugged before responding, "Please don't misunderstand, Young Master. There is absolutely nothing wrong. I just observed that Young Master has been smiling a lot more lately, actually even the other employees thought so."
A crease formed on his forehead, has he been really smiling a lot than before? Maybe he did so unknowingly? Well, it's just that whenever he's thinking about Xi Ana he just felt his lips form an arch.Find authorized novels in , faster updates, better experience, Please click <a href="#'s-wife-has-a-secret_14496266906619705/lim-yi-sheng's-comfort-(2)_50628049414192849">#'s-wife-has-a-secret_14496266906619705/lim-yi-sheng's-comfort-(2)_50628049414192849</a> for visiting.
Thinking back on what his ȧssistant said, he suddenly remembered something that he observed from the meeting this morning, "Is that the reason why during the meeting this morning a lot of them were staring at me?"
There was a slight hesitation on Feng Jinnian's face but he eventually nodded.
"That can't be helped then, I am indeed to happy that it's overflowing."
Although he said this with a straight face Feng Jinnian can't help but feel that the Young Master he has been working for for so many years had really changed when he married the Young Madame.
Not long after Xi Ana and her ȧssistant reached his office. Feng Jinnian took the initiative to get the bags of meals from Xi Ana, "Young Madame, we'll reheat these food in the pantry. Please stay here for a while."
Xi Ana smiled and thanked the two ȧssistants, "Thank you."
Lim Yi Sheng stared at his wife intently because the instant she stepped inside his office he an already tell that there is something wrong with her, perhaps other people might not notice but he can tell and that's why it's bothering him.
Her usual aura which could intimidate other people cannot be felt and that alone is something. Furthermore, even her smile looks like it was forced out from her. Other people might not see it but he would, what is the use of being with her everyday if he can't even tell if his wife has something that's bothering her.
It's as if Feng Jinnian and Hannah had a tacit understanding and left the room one after the other.
When the two ȧssistants finally left the room, Lim Yi Sheng walked towards his wife and helped her took off her coat which Xi Ana obliged without saying anything. He hanged the coat on the hanger and walked back to her.
Seeing the expression on her face, his heart ached. He ċȧrėssed her head with one hand and wrapped the other on her waist.
"Are you okay? Is there something the matter?"
Instead of answering, Xi Ana wrapped her arms on his waist rather tightly. Xi Ana is not good with speaking when it comes to matters that concerns herself, Lim Yi Sheng knew that very well and so he just let her be.
"Something like that but for now I just want to stay like this for a while, I need to breathe."
It's rare to see Xi Ana looking as depressed as this even her tone was low in spirits and its almost the same as when they were talking on the phone when she was in City M. His already aching heart tighten at the sight of this.
He wrapped his left arm on her shoulders and ċȧrėssed the back of her head with the other as if coaxing a child to fall asleep. Although the tightness of Xi Ana's hug is not something that would make him out of breath it is enough for him to understand that she is really bothered by something.
The two of them stayed like that for a few minutes without talking, just feeling the warmth of each other though their clothes.
Unknowingly, Lim Yi Sheng's forehead crease seemingly thinking about something. Just what made Xi Ana feel like this.
Before explaining, Xi Ana inhaled before releasing a sigh, "Xi Chen and I talked just before I went here."
He also received a message from Xi Chen earlier apologizing for being drank last night at the same time thanking him of the thing's he'd done for him. He must have went straight to Xi Corporation after leaving Imperial this morning.
"How did you talk with him go?"
From his understanding of Xi Chen, he is actually similar to his sister when it comes to other things especially when handling official business matters which may be because of the big influence Xi
Ana has on him.
Even so, Xi Chen has undoubtedly a very soft spot for Xi Ana which made is very obvious with his high level of sister complex.
Actually, it is very easy to conclude the reason behind this and even him will also think the same. It is understandable because Xi Chen grew up with only Xi Ana as the only female figure he could rely on.
"It's okay, I guess?"
Lim Yi Sheng grabbed both her hands and enveloped them with his, he gave it a light squeeze and since he's been holding her for a while now the heat from his already transferred from his to hers which greatly lessened the coldness of her hands.
"Why does it feel like I'm not really convinced with what you're saying?" he's trying to make is tone light so that Xi Ana won't be pressured into speaking.
Xi Ana looked at him straight to the eyes with a gaze that felt like it could penetrate him in an instant, "Technically speaking it was okay since we're able to reconcile "
"Then what made you mood like this?"
Her gaze shifted from the previous reaction into a depressed state once again, ever since he realized his real feeling for her these small changes in her expression could be easily seen by him.
"I already told you before that I studied outside the country right?"
This is one of the mysteries about Xi Ana that he's been trying to unravel but to no avail and the only things he knew was what Grandfather Xi and Xi Chen told him previously when they had this conversation.
"Yeah."
"Actually before going overseas I practically ran away from home for two weeks without contacting home nor have I gotten any news from them as well. It's not like I already have connections at that time but what I have was money, money to conceal my tracks."
"When I finally settled in England that's when I contacted them, I never really thought about what happened during that span of time that they couldn't contact me."
"Then?"
Xi Ana shifted her gaze, "Today when Xi Chen and I talked he mentioned that he was actually hospitalized that time because of me."
