But this name… Shi babe?
Pfft…
“Hello?”
“What are you doing?”
When she picked up the call, Shi Yuting’s sexy voice asked.
“I have just finished having afternoon tea with Nuannuan.”
“I have a social event tonight.”
Zuo Weiyi paused upon hearing that.
Was he… reporting his schedule?
Her heart was filled with warmth just thinking about it.
She smiled softly. “Sure.”
At the other end of the phone, Shi Yuting frowned and stayed quiet for half a second.
He asked, “You’re going to say just that?”
“What?” Zuo Weiyi questioned. She did not understand what he meant.
“There’s nothing else you want to say to me?” Shi Yuting asked again.
Zuo Weiyi bit her bottom lip and frowned.
“What else do I have to say?”
“Something like… I miss you, I’ll wait for you to come home…”
In the Dizun building, Shi Yuting sat in his office staring at the television, a romantic soap opera was playing.
The scene that was played was the same as their situation. The male lead called the female lead to report his schedule and that he would return late.
Then, the female lead said, “Sure, I miss you, I’ll wait for you to come home.”
The male lead replied, “I love you.”
The female lead reciprocated with ‘I love you too’.
Shi Yuting had watched their actions and merely followed.
Meanwhile, question marks were popping in Zuo Weiyi’s head.
She frowned. Shi Yuting seemed different today.
“Or… I love you.”
Shi Yuting could not help but blurt the phrase that the male lead had used in the show.
Zuo Weiyi’s heart throbbed when she heard that.
Those three words “I love you”… They had never said that to each other.
“I… love you.”
The phrase unconsciously slipped out from her mouth just as she was thinking about it, completely forgetting Xiang Yi and Nuannuan’s existence.
Shi Yuting’s face visibly turned blank when he heard that.
His attention was instantly pulled away from the show.
Because he thought that this was the “proper” way a couple should talk, Shi Yuting wanted to try that out and so, he had subconsciously said those words. Yet, when she said it, his heart was fluttering.
Never would he thought that the words would sound so nice from her lips.
When he was still studying at his university, Jing Xinlei had told him ‘I love you’ too, but he had felt nothing. Unlike that moment just now that was pure bliss.
As if he was not satisfied, Shi Yuting asked again, “What did you say?”
Zuo Weiyi snapped back to reality.
She lifted her gaze and saw that Shi Nuannuan was staring at her strangely.
After noticing what kind of ground-breaking phrase she had just said, Zuo Weiyi quickly changed the topic.
“Uh-Uhm, I’ll hang up now! We’re going shopping later so…!”
Not even waiting for Shi Yuting’s reply, Zuo Weiyi hung up.
Shi Yuting blinked as her voice was replaced by the beeping.
Staring at his phone, Shi Yuting did not feel unpleasant. Rather, he smiled with a heart full of delight.
At this instant, someone knocked on the door. Shi Yuting did not look away from his phone as he said, “Come in.”
“Boss, the meeting is starting.” The secretary, Feilin, entered and informed him.
“Alright.”
Looking at his grin, Feilin could not help but feel curious.
After working at Dizun for three years, this was her first time seeing him smile!
