He is Not Returning Home

There was indeed some small issues with her computer. It was possible to restore its function, but it would take a while. “Let me try but there’s no guarantee.”

“Thank you! Let me get you some coffee, one teaspoon of sugar and two drops of milk. I still remember your preference.”

She rattled off his habit which caught him by surprise. But he regained his composure just as quickly, and merely retorted with disinterest, “Original please; no sugar or milk.”

Before he finished his words, he deliberately added, “Sometimes, a person’s preference will change over time.”

She was taken aback but did not say anything more, except to get up to go to the kitchen to prepare instant coffee for him.

Chi Yi curled herself into a fetal posture as she sat on the stairs and waited for him. Her eyes stared blankly at the quartz clock hanging on the opposite wall without flinching.

And she had stayed put in the same position for nearly two hours.

“Aunty Chen, is uncle home yet?”

“Not yet!”

The housekeeper was in the hall, one level beneath her, as she looked up to reply to the young girl. The middle-aged lady then continued, “Missy, you better stop waiting and go to bed, or you might catch a cold!”

“… I’m fine.”

She shook her head stubbornly.

“Why don’t you call Mister and check?” she suggested.

Can I? I can!

She pondered to herself. Without further ado, she rang up Chi Zuxu.

Someone answered the call fast.

She opened her mouth and shot the question. “Uncle, when are you coming home?”

“Are you Zuxu’s niece, Yiyi?”

The girl on the other end was pretty disappointed. The one who answered the call was not her uncle but Lin Wenyu instead.

The girl asked with a slight scowl on her face. “Why are you answering my uncle’s call?”

“He’s at my place now, having a shower, so it’s not convenient for him to answer your call now. Let me know why you are looking for him and I’ll relay the message to him. However, he just told me that he wouldn’t be going back tonight.”

The woman told a lie.

First of all, the man did not indicate that he wanted to stay behind and furthermore, he was not taking a shower. He was merely visiting the toilet and happened to leave his phone next to the computer.

Of course, she naturally had her reasons for lying to the girl. When she saw the lass this afternoon at the office, she could sense the latter’s wariness and enmity.

This young girl likes Zuxu!

Just like how she subconsciously treated all women who tried to get close to the man as potential rivals; the girl was doing the same, just like her!

The moment she completed her sentence, the other party instantly cut the call. All that remained was a ‘duu…’ dial tone.

The woman erased the call record on the phone without hesitation.

Just at this time, Chi Zuxu came out of the bathroom. She hurriedly put the phone back to its position with a nonchalant look, leaving no trace of the earlier event. The man did not suspect anything wrong.

After she hung up on the call, Chi Yi continued to squat on the stairs and stared into space. Her face looked pale and terrible. Inside her head, thoughts about Chi Zuxu and Lin Wenyu stirred unceasingly.

What are they doing now? Are they doing what he and Su Jieyu did that day? Or perhaps, they are doing something even more intimate?!

“Missy, don’t sit there anymore. I won’t be able to explain to Master if you catch a cold.” The housekeeper reminded the girl again.

She glanced at the middle-aged lady on the first floor and asked, “Aunty Chen, do you think uncle will rush back to see me if I’m sick now?”
