Since that day, the mysterious man and Xia Chuwei had no contact again, and life became peaceful again.

However, for some reason, Huo Yunting became increasingly busy and no longer even had time to go home for dinner.

On this day, Huo Yunting rarely had any schedule in the evening and would go home on time for dinner.

Xia Chuwei checked the time, picked up her bag, and was about to leave work when her phone suddenly rang.

Xia Chuwei took out her cell phone and found that it was Huo Yunting, and a smile appeared on her lips.

She answered the phone, "Are you off work?"

After a brief silence, Huo Yunting spoke: "Chu Wei, I have something to do today. I'm afraid I won't be able to go back for dinner tonight."

The smile on Xia Chuwei's face froze, "You...won't come back for dinner?"

"Um."

Xia Chuwei knew that Huo Yunting was very busy, and could understand that as the president of Huo's, he was busy with work.

However, they have not eaten together for nearly a month.

Xia Chuwei inevitably felt a bit depressed in her heart.

"Huo Yunting, when will you finish your work?" Xia Chuwei couldn't help but asked in a low voice.

"It will take some time."

"Don't you...have no schedule today?"

"Something happened temporarily."

Xia Chuwei held the phone and said nothing.

The man's deep and gentle voice flowed from the other end of the phone.

"When I finish my work in a while, I will spend time with you."

"Okay." Xia Chuwei didn't bother anymore, "Then you must eat on time."

After chatting for a few more words, Xia Chuwei hung up the phone.

Walking out of the office, Xia Chuwei saw Luo Xi who was also preparing to get off work.

"Xixi, are you okay tonight?"

"It's okay." Luo Xi asked in surprise: "Sister Chuwei, is there anything you need me to do?"

"No." Xia Chuwei said, "Aren't you worried about what to eat tonight? Come on, I'll treat you tonight."

"Sister Chu Wei, aren't you... going to have dinner with Mr. Huo tonight?"

During the recent period, because Huo Yunting didn't come back for dinner at night and Luo Xi was single, Xia Chuwei and Luo Xi basically had dinner out and then went home.

Mentioning this, Xia Chuwei's face showed a little disappointment.

"He has something to do and won't come back for dinner."

Seeing Xia Chuwei's depressed expression, Luo Xi hurriedly said, "I just happen to want to go to that Chinese restaurant. Sister Chuwei, shall we go there to eat tonight?"

"good."

The two of them tidied up and took a taxi to the restaurant.

After ordering the meal, Luo Xi asked curiously: "Mr. Huo seems to be very busy recently?"

"Well, he's been working a lot lately."

Luo Xi looked at Xia Chuwei, hesitant to speak, and reminded tactfully: "Sister Chuwei, is Mr. Huo really busy with work?"

Xia Chuwei was stunned for a moment, "Yes, what's wrong?"

Luo Xi whispered: "No matter how busy you are, you won't even have time to have dinner together, right?"

Xia Chuwei understood what Luo Xi meant and said with a smile: "He is indeed busy at work."

A few days ago, Xia Chuwei had no work, so she went to Huo's to deliver food to Huo Yunting in person.

Sometimes she goes at noon and sometimes at night.

Huo Yunting was really busy. Even while eating, he kept answering the phone.

At first, Xia Chuwei thought that she had nothing to do anyway and could stay with him in his office.
