It wasn't until the sky had darkened that Qi Miao finally got up and started pacing in front of the window. She should return back to the mansion, who knows when Yun Peng would suddenly lose his temper and go back.
Even if he didn't come back, there were still people there who were watching her closely. She couldn't stay at home all night, this was a rule given by Yun Peng, so even if she wanted to go back to Qi Family or visit her father in the nursing home, she had to go back to that mansion by 10.30pm.
His phone rang again. Qi Miao took out his phone from her pocket, and upon seeing the number, her heart trembled.
It's Yun Peng!
He answered without any delay, "Hello!"
"Why aren't you coming home at such a late hour? Tianhai's heating is broken. Don't tell me you're working overtime!"
"Not to mention Qi Family, I've already called to ask!"
"I'm in the sanatorium. I came to see my father."
"Hm!" "Send it to me!" Then he hung up.
Qi Miao laughed self-deprecatingly, then mechanically followed Yun Peng's instructions and sent his own seat over. She was used to his routine of patrolling.
Before she put down the phone, the red Arabic two-digit sign on the screen caught her attention. These days, people hardly used text messages to contact each other anymore.
It should either be an advertisement or a notice from the bank.
Qi Miao was obsessed with the interface of her phone's screen, so she had to clean all the symbols.
When he opened the details page, he found that it was all from Ye Dongmo.
Basically, they were all apologies. It was all an impulse, not caring about her feelings at all.
Qi Miao deleted as soon as she saw it.
It would be false to say that there was no fluctuation in his heart.
Especially the last line, "I'm outside the sanatorium. Come out!"
His head exploded. He actually knew where she was? Had he been following her?
He looked at the message and saw that it had been received more than two hours ago.
Qi Miao also deleted them, she picked up her clothes and left the room, not to go out and see him, but to go back first.
Moreover, so much time had passed so Ye Dongmo would probably be long gone.
After exiting the nursing home, she looked around. Although she thought that he had left and that she did not want to see him, she still instinctively used her gaze to search for him.
There were not many pedestrians and not many cars.
Finally, Qi Miao who was standing in front of the sanatorium's entrance for a while, disappointedly went to rent it.
Not far away, the black Maybach turned on its own lights as the taxi pulled away and drove out of the parking space.
Ye Dongmo did not leave, and had not left since then. He was waiting for Qi Miao to come out, not because he wanted to see her, nor was he really going to apologize, but to observe her expression after coming out.
The look in her eyes told him that she was looking for him!
The corner of his mouth curled up into a sneer, it seemed like his prey had already taken the bait. But he didn't want to waste any more time waiting for her to accept it.
He thought that he understood Qi Miao a little.
She was a conservative woman.
There were some things that needed to be resolved quickly.
When they returned to the thousand metre mansion, Qi Miao could tell from the servants' attitude that they had not seen her that Yun Peng had not returned. It seemed that the phone call from Cha Gang was due to a report from a servant.
She sneered in her heart, were these servants too idle, or were they too loyal to the Yun Family?
Having not eaten for a day, he didn't feel hungry at all. No one came to ask her if she needed a midnight snack.
This was a normal occurrence. When Yun Peng was not around, a few servants would come over, but they all ignored her.
She was like a ghost. No matter how she floated around the mansion, no matter where she went, as long as she didn't go out, no one would pay attention to her.
She knew these people were watching her.
He was too lazy to bother with the servants, so he went straight back to the bedroom to wash up.
Looking at himself in the mirror, he inexplicably thought of that kiss today. Her slender fingers rested on her lips for a long time. Finally, she didn't wash her face or brush her teeth. She just showered and came out.
Even though Ye Dongmo's aura had disappeared from her lips long ago, she still couldn't bear to wash up.
Lying on the bed, tossing and turning, thinking about what Ye Dongmo had said and his actions, he became even more confused!
He could not see this person clearly either!
Even though she had liked him, liked him, liked him a lot, but she had never been able to understand him.
Before he left without saying goodbye, he gave her the impression that there was a hint of melancholy in his indifference.
Perhaps, it was precisely this aura that was deeply attracting her, and that she wanted to get closer to her.
Since their reunion, he had been mysterious and arrogant to her.
As she was in a state of upheaval, Qi Miao blurrily fell into a dream. The kiss in his dream was still as sudden and unexpected as before, but it was much more painful than when she was in reality.
Her reaction was much braver than it was in reality. She took the initiative to wrap her arms around his neck, and even tightened her arms when she felt that he was about to let go of her.
However, he suddenly turned into a wisp of green smoke and disappeared.
He couldn't find it or catch it.
Qi Miao panicked and woke up. Seeing a pillow fall onto the floor, she bent over the bed and picked it up. After patting it, she discovered that the edge of the pillow was a little wet.
That should be his own saliva!
Qi Miao was embarrassed that she had such a dream.
He could no longer fall asleep. He tossed and turned until the sun rose, then left for work with a faint ring of green in his eyes.
Entering Tianhai Hall, the front desk clerk and the security guards were whispering to each other. "Have you heard?" "The new boss is in a car accident."
Qi Miao was startled, wasn't the new boss Ye Dongmo! Did he have a car accident?
Was it because yesterday she hadn't replied to any of his messages and he was angry, causing his mind to be distracted?
He didn't know if the injuries were severe and if there was any danger to his life.
Qi Miao who had entered the office was restless. Her mind was in a mess and she really wanted to peek at him, but she didn't know which hospital she was in.
The door opened slightly, and Fang Qi'er stuck her head in, "Little Cat, what are you doing?"
"It's okay, I'm free!"
Fang Qi'er jumped in and moved closer to Qi Miao in a mysterious manner, "It's still warm here!"
The heating system had not been repaired yet, but it was only thanks to the electric heater. Qi Miao's office was very small, it was definitely much warmer than the large space of the gym.
Fang Qi'er leaned on the desk and extended her feet out in front of the electric heater.
"Have you heard about Boss Ye's car accident and its stay in the city hospital?"
"En!" Qi Miao replied softly. She didn't seem to think much of it, but she remembered the words City Hospital.
"Is that all you can do? "Since you know him, why aren't you concerned about him at all?"
"Why should I care?" He couldn't show his concern either.
Fang Qi'er shrugged her shoulders, "Did you guys learn medicine and do too many things like dissecting corpses to look down on life and death?"
Qi Miao laughed. Did you see life and death differently?
She could not reach that level yet.
"Tell me, is the new boss at odds with Tianhai? Is he unable to suppress this edifice, or is he rather weak?" "How did you just take over? First, the heating pipe was frozen, and then there was a car accident. I heard that it was quite serious!"
Qi Miao did not mind what she said before, but after she heard the last sentence, her heart trembled, how serious was it?
