When Love Turns the Tables: The Mysterious Husband's Chase
Chapter 1326: Continue Tonight?
Xi Siyan kept at it until who knows what time, and Zhou Chengchen had absolutely no idea. All she knew was that when she opened her eyes the next day, the sun outside was brilliantly bright.
And naturally, there was no one beside her.
Forcing herself to sit up, Zhou Chengchen felt like her waist was about to break.
"Crazy, crazy person."
She muttered curses under her breath, got out of bed, and felt a lot better after taking a shower.
Downstairs, breakfast was on the table along with a note left by Xi Siyan.
Although their crisis was resolved, the company’s matters still couldn’t be ignored, so Xi Siyan had left early.
Zhou Chengchen sat at the dining table, biting into a sandwich, complaining once more. It was obviously He who did the work, so why does He seem unaffected while she’s utterly exhausted? That’s just not fair.
After finishing her meal, Zhou Chengchen’s legs were still a bit wobbly, and she was too lazy to go out, so she curled up on the sofa with her tablet, watching dramas.
She already woke up quite late, and after not eating breakfast for long, it was already noon. Just past twelve, her phone rang.
It was Xi Siyan asking if she wanted to come over for lunch.
Zhou Chengchen thought for a moment, agreed, and then hung up, dragging her tired legs upstairs to change clothes and head out.
She didn’t go directly there but instead stopped at a nearby dessert shop, buying a variety of desserts, each one more tempting than the last, before heading over.
As soon as she stepped into Cheng Yi’s building, someone spoke up: "Our beautiful Chen is here to spread warmth again."
Because there was too much stuff, Zhou Chengchen couldn’t carry it all herself, so she asked for the dessert shop’s help to deliver it. Hearing someone teasing her, she didn’t immediately respond but called everyone over to help distribute the goodies first.
"Cheng Chen, you’re the best! How did you know I love this?"
"Red bean, red bean, mine!"
"The awesome boss gives salaries, the gorgeous boss lady spreads warmth. Our big Cheng Yi is unbeatable!"
Zhou Chengchen took her and Xi Siyan’s share and headed to Xi Siyan’s office, still hearing everyone’s playful chatter in the background.
Zhou Chengchen couldn’t help but smile. She hadn’t felt this kind of atmosphere in a while. Previously, everyone’s nerves were tight, but now they were relaxed, and everyone could loosen up. It was wonderful.
In Xi Siyan’s office, Liu Xiaoyu and Xi Siyan were talking about something, both looking at ease and relieved. Seeing her come in, Liu Xiaoyu was the first to greet her.
"I brought some desserts over, they’re outside; go get some."
Both Xi Siyan and Liu Xiaoyu were chatting while having lunch. Hearing this, they nodded: "Alright, alright, I’ll go grab some in a bit."
Liu Xiaoyu’s face wasn’t completely healed yet, but it was hard to tell now. He grinned foolishly at Zhou Chengchen, instantly giving her a sense of déjà vu, as if she was back in high school, where Liu Xiaoyu was just as excellent and silly.
Liu Xiaoyu soon left, and Zhou Chengchen had already made her way to Xi Siyan’s side: "Here, your favorite."
Xi Siyan smiled: "Have you had lunch?"
"No, I had breakfast too late, I’m not hungry at all."
"Woke up late? Lazy."
Xi Siyan’s voice was full of affection, but Zhou Chengchen didn’t appreciate it, glaring at him with exasperation: "And whose fault is that?"
Xi Siyan chuckled twice: "Blame me, so should we continue tonight?"
Zhou Chengchen: "..."
Continue your ass!
Zhou Chengchen used silence to cover her inner frustration, her gaze suddenly landing thoughtfully on the collar of Xi Siyan’s shirt.
