Su Yue looked downwards and couldn’t help but smile.
What a lousy excuse.
She remained silent. Xiaojiao had already expressed her interest, so it didn’t matter even if she said no unless she forced her not to go.
It delighted Ming Ansheng when he saw Su Yue keeping quiet.
Silence means consent…
Great!
He was excited. This… was his first step towards success.
“Why haven’t you eaten?” Ming Ansheng glanced at the box of food on the bedside cabinet. Su Yue had barely taken a few mouthfuls.
Actually, he knew that she was talking to Xiaojiao.
He wanted to act like he heard nothing earlier so that the atmosphere would be more natural.
“I am.” Su Yue picked up the container of rice again and began eating.
Ming Ansheng bought her favorite dishes for her. Su Yue had changed tremendously the past few years, but her love for chicken wings hadn’t.
She had come up with various recipes herself, and Jiao Chen had given her favorable comments.
When she opened the cover of the container earlier and saw the golden-brown chicken wings, a wave of emotions filled her.
She had been trying to forget him, but he was always trying to dig out her feelings that she had buried deep within her.
Goodness…
‘Sigh!’
Su Yue sighed thoughtfully. She swallowed without savoring the food.
Ming Ansheng came to the hospital every day, as though he was very free. He only went to pick up a few calls when Xiaojiao was sleeping.
Su Yue saw that he was always fighting to spend time with Xiaojiao, so she lay down on the sofa and picked up her phone to bury herself in work.
This was the first time the ‘family of three’ spent time alone together, and for the whole day too.
Ming Ansheng felt incredibly satisfied.
He stared at Su Yue, who was lying on the sofa before walking over. “What do you want for dinner?”
Before Su Yue could reply, he added, “Xiaojiao can only have light food. Why don’t we have porridge with her?”
Su Yue placed her phone down and sat up. She frowned and asked him in confusion, “Is Bright Vision going to collapse since you refuse to head back?”
Ming Ansheng raised an eyebrow at her. “Are you worried about me?”
Su Yue was speechless…
He was good at twisting facts!
She was just wondering how a busy president like him could spare the time to go overseas every few days.
From the number of times her helper brought home bags of stuff, she knew how often he came to Country M.
But work definitely wasn’t the only reason he came.
And she knew the main reason.
“You’ve always been busy,” Su Yue commented as she placed her phone down. She picked up her glass and walked to the water dispenser.
Ming Ansheng said, “It was precisely because I was too swarmed with work back then which caused me to neglect you. I will spend more time with you in the future.”
Guilt and self-blame filled his tone of voice.
Ming Ansheng walked over to Su Yue.
Su Yue was stunned and she only recovered when the water in her glass overflowed. She hurriedly retracted her hand.
She ignored him and took a sip of water.
She leaned casually against the water dispenser.
Ming Ansheng also leaned against the other side of the water dispenser. He folded his arms and stared at her, saying half-jokingly, “It’ll be best if the company folds. Then I’ll be able to be with you and Xiaojiao every day.”
Deep down, that was what he hoped for.
