Chapter 996 - Chapter 996: Chengfeng Asks the Moon-A Concealed Phone Call (81) (2/2)

Xu Chengfeng’s hand, which was flipping through the company documents, paused slightly. He raised his handsome eyebrows and asked calmly,”What friend?”

“It’s my two good friends, Julie and Vera. They’re two girls. They saw that I haven’t been back to school for so long and were very worried about me. They heard that I had already returned home to recuperate, so they wanted to come and see me.”Zuo Yue said honestly.

“So be it. I’m going to the company to inspect a new project tomorrow so that you won’t be bored at home alone. It’s not bad for them to come and accompany you.”

Zuo Yue’s face was filled with joy.” Really!” After all, this is your place. It’s good that you don’t find it noisy!”

Xu Chengfeng snorted and looked at her cautious gaze again. In the end, he did not say anything.

However, he could tell that Zuo Yue had been in a good mood and condition for the past few days after she returned. She would often act coquettishly in front of him, but because of what had happened just now…

This girl was really frightened.

When she stood there and spoke to him, she did not dare to be too loud, as if she was afraid of angering him again.

“I’m not that arbitrary. You young people like to gather together. Don’t make the house too messy. I can accept it. Even if they come to see you every day, I won’t say anything.”

“Uncle, don’t worry. We won’t mess up the house. I know you’re a neat freak…”

As she spoke, Zuo Yue’s expression relaxed a lot.

Xu Chengfeng glanced at her again and turned around to return to the study. She paused and suddenly said,””Oh right, uncle… That…”

Xu Chengfeng looked back at her,”What’s wrong now?””

Zuo Yue bit her lip and looked at his calm and handsome face from afar. She said softly,””Um, when I was hospitalized, did Yin Ruisheng call me?”

Xu Chengfeng’s expression remained calm as he replied indifferently,””Yes.”

“Why didn’t you tell me?” Zuo Yue found it strange,[I have known Brother Ruisheng since we were young, he must have been worried about me.] You should have told me when you found his number. They’ve been worried about me all this time.”

“I forgot.” After Xu Chengfeng said that expressionlessly, he went straight into the study.

Zuo Yue was stunned.

*****

Night fell.

Zuo Yue slept for the entire afternoon. After waking up, she got up from the bed and looked at the time. She realized that she had slept until she missed dinner time.

She hurriedly got out of bed and ran out. The moment she opened the bedroom door, she seemed to smell the fragrance of food coming from downstairs. She then ran downstairs with a smile on her face.

As soon as she ran downstairs, she found that there were a few Chinese side dishes that she liked to eat on the dining table, as well as a bowl of soup that could replenish qi and blood. There was only her cutlery on the table. The dishes were still warm, but Xu Chengfeng was nowhere to be seen.

Zuo Yue sat at the table and scooped a small bowl of soup for herself. She looked in the direction of Xu Chengfeng’s bedroom and then in the direction of the study. She was not sure if he was home at the moment.

He couldn’t have gone out after helping her prepare dinner, right?

She glanced at the empty spot in front of the sofa that lacked a coffee table. She picked up the bowl and looked around. She really did not know where her uncle had gone.
