Although she didn’t say much, he could still sense the heaviness in her breath. What on earth had happened to make the girl who loved to smile beco so sad?
After closing his eyes in deep thought for a mont, he picked up the phone and called his assistant: "Postpone tomorrow morning’s eting by a day... No reason, just do as I say, I’ll take full responsibility for any consequences."
The next day happened to be the weekend.
Su Jiuyi thought that Shi Aoju definitely wouldn’t need her, so naturally, she didn’t need to prepare anything for him to eat, especially since he had beautiful company.
Recalling last night’s suggestion that Ye Han take her out to relax, Su Jiuyi got up early and dressed up specially.
When she opened the wardrobe to choose her clothes, she saw the bag that Shi Aoju had bought for her at a luxury store before their last mountain trip.
Since she usually didn’t go out, this bag had stayed in the closet.
What was he thinking at the ti to buy her a bag...
Su Jiuyi couldn’t figure it out, and didn’t want to think about it anymore. After tidying up, she walked out of the room, planning to go to the staff canteen to get bread and milk for breakfast.
Originally, she thought that apart from the bodyguards, no one would be up at this ti, but she unexpectedly ran into Quan Xin, who was returning from a morning run.
Today, Quan Xin dressed casually in sportswear, her hair tied up high, looking much more spirited than usual.
As etiquette dictated, Su Jiuyi stepped aside to make way for Quan Xin.
"Why haven’t you gone ho?" Quan Xin curiously examined her dress, marveling at how clothes indeed make the man (or woman). The usually unremarkable Su Jiuyi exuded an aura from inside out once she donned formal attire.
Su Jiuyi wasn’t in the mood to answer her question, but considering she had to hurry to her appointnt today, she didn’t want to invite unnecessary trouble.
"My parents aren’t in this city, so it’s troubleso for to go back and forth. The housekeeper allows to stay at the Shi Family residence over the weekend," she replied.
"Then go prepare so breakfast, Jue and I went on a morning run without eating." Quan Xin removed the towel from her head and walked ahead without giving it further thought.
Upon hearing this, Su Jiuyi instantly imagined the two of them running hand in hand, a sudden sense of inexplicable disappointnt welled in her heart.
She glanced at Quan Xin’s back, her brows slightly furrowed.
She ran to the kitchen, took out two bottles of milk from the refrigerator, drank one herself, then took out so buckwheat bread, spread mustard jam inside, placed it on a tray, and carried it out.
Previously, Qi Jingren had told her that if she was bullied at the Shi Family, she could go on strike and stay at her place; Quan Xin wouldn’t dare do anything to her, and Shi Aoju wouldn’t care either, so Su Jiuyi should boldly and confidently move forward.
After what happened last night, she felt there was no need for her to endure at the Shi Family any longer. Since he hadn’t needed her care for so long, she was naturally of no use to him.
When the case needed her, she could co forward again without issue.
Su Jiuyi carried the tray into the dining room.
The grand and empty dining room was devoid of people. She placed the mustard jam-covered bread on a plate, then poured the milk into a glass beside it.
Mustard jam bread, imagining that flavor, seed like a wonderfully peculiar combination.
Involuntarily, a mischievous smile appeared on Su Jiuyi’s face.
