Chapter 709: 709, Shen, Yuhuan Shi who can’t be at peace Chapter 709: 709, Shen, Yuhuan Shi who can’t be at peace In the hushed atmosphere of the office, it was already ten o’clock at night. All the lights were still brightly lit. Shi Yuhuan turned on his computer, about to go through the files when Liu Yuandong knocked and walked in.
He placed a docunt gently onto the desk, “Boss, these are the papers you requested. The latest findings concerning the old man.”
Shi Yuhuan nodded but didn’t speak.
Liu Yuandong hesitated for a mont before saying, “If there are no other instructions, I’ll head out.”
“Wait a mont.” Shi Yuhuan stopped her, continuing, “If there’s sothing else, just say it.”
Liu Yuandong was taken aback – the boss’s sharp eyes caught even the briefest hesitation.
Knowing that he couldn’t hide anything, he told him, “The man from that day wasn’t sent by the old man; he was sent by Shi Guozheng. Also, after Si Jianan was discharged, he moved into madam’s villa.”
Noticing Shi Yuhuan’s sudden cold gaze, Liu Yuandong hastily added, “But Mr. Li, the second son of the Li family, is also staying in the villa.”
“Alright, I got it!” Shi Yuhuan’s mind was heavy, but he didn’t show it on his face, instead asking Liu Yuandong to leave.
Following this, whether it were the docunts on the phone or the information Liu Yuandong brought in, he couldn’t bring himself to look at them any longer.
He swiveled his chair to look out of the window at the high-rises, his face cold and expression deep as the sea, as he stared into the distance, lost in thought.
Much later, he picked up his phone off the desk.
After a long hesitation, he finally dialed Song Qinghuan’s number.
As he was contemplating whether to call Song Qinghuan, she too was holding her phone, staring distractedly at the word “husband” shown on her screen.
She was also pondering whether she should call Shi Yuhuan. When she saw his incoming call, her excitent knew no bounds; had she not been heavily pregnant, she would probably have jumped out of bed.
“Huanhuan,” his low, magnetic voice made Song Qinghuan feel as if her whole body had turned to jelly.
“Shi Yuhuan, I’m here, do you miss ?” Song Qinghuan’s heart throbbed, her voice tinged with a soft charm.
Hearing her tender voice, it softened Shi Yuhuan’s icy deanor, and his voice was as gentle as lting ice, “Mm.”
With a subtle joy in her heart, mist began to cloud Song Qinghuan’s eyes. Clutching her phone tightly, she murmured lodiously, “That’s good, Shi Yuhuan, I miss you too, so much… when will you co…”
She wanted to say, when will you co to take ho, but felt that saying so might put pressure on him.
She wouldn’t want to press him, especially in a precarious situation like this. Being hasty would only make things worse.
So, she changed her tone, “I an… to visit … I don’t want to talk to you over the phone. I miss you, I really, really want to see you!”
“I’m sorry, I can’t co see you now,” the words lodged in his throat, unable to co out.
“It’ll be soon. Once things are settled, I won’t just co to see you, I’ll take you ho.” His low, soothing voice held a hint of enchantnt.
Song Qinghuan shook her head, “I know it’s not that simple. Take your ti; I don’t need you to rush ho. I would be content if you just ca to see .”
“Then… okay, I’ll plan a visit.” Even though Shi Yuhuan agreed, he didn’t specify when.
