Apart from being somewhat exhausted, Su Qiuzi and He Yu’s on bed relationship was still in perfect harmony. After it was over, Su Qiuzi couldn’t support herself and fell asleep again, and was woken up by Lin Qing’s phone call shortly after twelve in the afternoon.
Her body turned aside and she found it empty, Su Qiuzi took the phone and answered it.
“I’m sorry about ditching you yesterday, but I’ll buy you dinner at noon today, at the barbecue shop in the White Stallion Building.” Lin Qing said with a smile.
Su Qiuzi had just woken up and was lying in bed somewhat lazily, she glanced at the time and said, “Forget it, I took a leave this morning.”
“What? You asked for a leave? What could be more important in your mind than making money?” Lin Qing said in shock.
As she said this, Su Qiuzi remembered what happened in the morning, such a thing was even more shameful and had her heart palpitating. Su Qiuzi blushed, and she let out an “ah” and said, “It’s nothing, there’s something at home.”
“What is it?” Lin Qing was puzzled and asked again, “What’s wrong with your voice?”
With a dry cough, speaking some more was still somewhat difficult, and Su Qiuzi’s face got even hotter, she didn’t answer Lin Qing and hung up the phone with her hands fumbling.#pleasereadthis chapteratfoxaholic.com
After hanging up the phone, Su Qiuzi covered her face with her arms and only after a long time did she suppress the throbbing emotions in her heart. How should she put this? She couldn’t have said that she was screaming in bed and that she was muffled, could she?
Su Qiuzi moved her body, there was still some soreness in her waist, as it made her neck and face hot again, she looked at the empty side of the bed. She didn’t know what time he came back yesterday, with so much exerting energy in the morning, and now he’s up.
What kind of immortal strength was this?
She was obviously younger than him, Su Qiuzi muttered, blushing and going to the bathroom to wash up.
In his study room, He Yu sent out the comments for the drawing of the building after revising it. While waiting for the return receipt, he received a call from his mother, Miao Hualing.
After their parents divorced, He Yu stayed with the He family, Miao Hualing then remarried, and although the mother and son did not live together, they had a good relationship. While not as intimate as other mothers and sons, they were still as comfortable as they would be with friends.
In the past, Miao Hualing would call in and ask roughly about He Yu’s life and work, and now she would also ask about how he and Su Qiuzi were getting along.
“Pretty good.” He Yu answered truthfully.
This answer didn’t seem to satisfy Miao Hualing, she was silent for a while, and sighed softly.
“No matter how you feel about it, I hope you can get along with Qiuzi. She’s a good girl, and the grievances of the He family and the Su family should not implicate her…”
He Yu stared down at the computer screen, his dark eyes reflected the light on the screen, very shallow, unable to penetrate his eyes. When the notification about the revising drawing receipt had just arrived, Miao Hualing also finished with her words. He Yu responded swiftly and hung up the phone. After reading the receipt, he got out of the study room.
When he went downstairs to the door of the dining room, Su Qiuzi was already up, she had changed her dress and was drinking water. Hearing the sound of footsteps outside, Su Qiuzi turned her head, and upon seeing him, her eyes widened slightly. Then a faint redness rose at the bottom of her neck.#pleasereadthis chapteratfoxaholic.com
“You haven’t left yet.” Su Qiuzi pressed down her flushing emotions and said the sentence after screwing the water bottle cap.
“Well, I’m leaving this afternoon.” He Yu replied.
After a question and answer, the two fell into silence. Even though the two had been so physically close in the morning, they still didn’t know each other well and didn’t really know how to communicate.
Finally, He Yu broke the silence.
“Shall we have lunch together?”
She was originally going to have lunch anyway, and since He Yu took the initiative to invite, Su Qiuzi looked at him and nodded, “Sure, do you want to eat out or order takeout?”
“You cook.”
