Probably because she was woken up by the phone at night, Ji Xun didn't sleep well at all. When she woke up the next day, her face was a little swollen and the dark circles under her eyes were dark. She used concealer for a long time before going to the company.
When I first arrived at the company, it was already past the clock-in time. When I entered the office, I saw no one from Cheng Han, only the new male assistant.
"May I have your name."
Ji Xun made himself a cup of coffee and asked him softly.
The assistant rubbed his hands and said, "Mr. Ji, my surname is Lin, and my name is Lin Youyu."
Ji Xun paused for a moment. She found the information she had put on her desk before, about the new assistant.
"I didn't expect these two words."
She smiled softly and said, "Okay, then Wang Yu, did you see Xiaohan coming today?"
Lin Youyu pursed his lips unnaturally when he heard her calling his name, then raised his head slightly with a shy look and whispered, "Mr. Ji, Sister Xiaohan hasn't come yet today, but she didn't ask for leave, so she should arrive later.
"
"not coming?"
Ji Xun glanced at the door. Cheng Han had never been late. Even if there was a traffic jam on the road, he would tell her just in case she didn't know what was going on today.
"Okay, I understand, then you will do the work this morning."
She handed him a small stack of documents and said, "Thank you for your hard work."
"it's okay no problem."
Lin Youyu quickly took it and walked out holding the document.
Ji Xun turned on her phone and sent a message to Cheng Han. After waiting for a few minutes, there was no reply, so she didn't ask again. Maybe she stayed up late and didn't get up. She felt that Cheng Han was not an unreliable person and planned to wait for her.
Let’s talk about being late when we get here.
After Ji Xun had lunch, Cheng Han hurried over.
"Why are you late?"
When Ji Xun returned to the office, she saw Cheng Han running towards him, sweating profusely. She noticed that the little girl's face seemed a little abnormal.
"Xiaohan, is there something important?"
Cheng Han shook his head fiercely, "No...Mr. Ji, I...I'm not feeling well, and I forgot to pay the phone bill on my phone. I originally sent you a text message asking for leave, but I didn't send it."
"How are you feeling now? If you feel uncomfortable, don't bear it. I'll give you a day off and just let Wang Yu do those things. It just so happens that he just came here to get familiar with it."
As soon as Ji Xun finished speaking, Cheng Han waved his hand, "No, no, no, no! I can do it, Mr. Ji!"
After Cheng Han finished speaking, he took Ji Xun's cup and ran out to get water.
Ji Xun was a little puzzled. She glanced at Lin Youyu in confusion, but Lin Youyu was also puzzled.
When it was almost time to get off work, Cheng Han stood at the door as if he had something to say and walked around for a long time.
Ji Xun had already felt it. She originally wanted to wait for Cheng Han to take the initiative to ask, but Cheng Han never spoke, so she took the initiative to ask.
"Xiaohan, what's wrong with you today? Is there anything you want to tell me?"
The office was quiet, and Cheng Han was startled by Ji Xun's voice.
Cheng Han couldn't hide her thoughts, and everything was clearly written on her face. Ji Xun knew that there must be something wrong with her today, but she didn't know what it was.
Could it be that something went wrong at work?
"Mr. Ji..."
She rolled her eyes in panic, then stammered, "I...I have nothing to do. I'm just late today. I haven't passed my internship period. I'm afraid you won't use me."
Ji Xun paused for a moment. He didn't expect that this was what she was talking about. He couldn't help laughing when he saw her nervous look, "What are you worried about? I like your Xiaohan very much. You can get ready to get off work. Go back today."
Solve your own problems and continue to work for me tomorrow."
Cheng Han lost his composure, then nodded vigorously, "I understand, Mr. Ji."
She turned around stiffly and took a deep breath before leaving.
Ji Xun felt that something was very wrong with her, and he couldn't help but feel a little worried, but he didn't want to ask more questions.
After Cheng Han left, Ji Xun thought it was not too late, so he quickly drove back to Palm Beach.
Fu Yanhan didn't come back. Ji Xun called him, but there was no answer. She was wise and didn't call again.
In the dead of night, she began to recall what Xu Yanan said in her mind, thinking that she should ask Fu Yanhan when she saw him again, so that she would know if it was really what Xu Yanan said.
Just as he was about to fall asleep, a picture was suddenly sent to his phone. It was the back of Fu Yanhan, with the daughter of the Mu family standing beside him.
Ji Xun was watching when another sentence came from the other side.
[He is with someone else, I didn’t lie to you.]
She guessed it was Xu Yanan.
【What do you mean.】
Ji Xun replied.
[I said I don’t have any purpose, Ji Xun. He has a purpose. He has the proofs that can send your father in. I don’t know why he helped you so much before, but he has a purpose for sure. You
Just believe me, okay?】
Ji Xun held the phone with trembling hands. It was true that Fu Yanhan didn't come back, and this photo might not be fake either.
But she couldn't figure out what purpose Fu Yanhan could have. She had given him everything she could, and what else could he have besides her body.
Ji Xun felt that he was too entangled, and it might be better to just let nature take its course.
She blocked all the numbers used by Xu Yanan, looked out the window at the cold night, and thought of the man's deep eyes, which were hazier than the night, making it difficult for her to distinguish.
…
A few days passed, and Ji Xun didn't see Fu Yanhan again. She returned to Palm Beach on time every day, ate face to face with Aunt Zhang, laughed and talked, and it didn't seem to have any impact.
Even Ji Xun himself almost ignored her turbulent heart.
Dr. Qiao called her in the afternoon and said it was good news about her father's condition. He was recovering well and could stand for a long time holding things by himself.
Ji Xun wants to go back to see Ji's father and mother tomorrow night.
The outside was suddenly illuminated by car lights.
Her heart suddenly lifted, she ran to the window, opened the curtains and looked down.
It's Fu Yanhan's car.
Ji Xun sat back on the bed. She didn't want Fu Yanhan to know that she was waiting, so she tried her best to stay natural.
She seemed to hear Fu Yanhan and Aunt Zhang talking, the content was vague, and then there was no movement.
Ji Xun couldn't help but opened the door. Seeing the lights on in the living room, he guessed that Fu Yanhan hadn't left yet.
"It turns out that Miss Ji hasn't rested yet."
She nodded, "Aunt Zhang, is Dr. Fu back?"
"Yes, sir, he went back to the master bedroom to take a shower and said there was no need to wake you up."
Ji Xun responded softly, looked at the closed door of the master bedroom, hesitated for a long time before walking over and knocking on the door twice.
no respond.
She mustered up her courage, opened the door and walked in.
The light in the bathroom was still on, and there was the sound of running water inside.
It was Fu Yanhan taking a shower.
Ji Xun stood nervously at the door, waiting for him to come out.
About five minutes later, the bathroom door was opened. The man was wiping his hair, water dripping from his forehead and then flowing over his abdominal muscles.
The dark and unclear eyes fell on her, seeming to be as puzzled as she was.
