Chapter 244 - Allergy (1/2)

Changyu turned around to hear what Jianjun wanted to say. Since no one wanted her there, wasn't it best for her to just leave quietly?

She decided to just apologize to Cixi another day. She already felt bad for ruining Christmas for this family because she didn't want to celebrate Christmas all by herself this year.

She didn't blame Cixi though. She believed she would have acted the exact same way if the reverse was the case.

”What is it?” She asked Jianjun expressionlessly.

She had noticed how Miss Xia something Kang or whatever her name was had been looking at her. She had been able to guess that this young lady liked Jianjun. Even now as she looked at her direction, Changyu could see how the woman was intently staring at her and Jianjun.

”Come with me” He said to her before leading her to a little room beside the kitchen.

”What just happened?” Bilike asked no one in particular as he looked at the direction they had both walk past.

”Wow... I had no idea the Wang's knew her. This is surprising” Lisa chipped in from her corner and immediately got busy with her phone.

”Don't upload anything sister Lisa. Dad is going to be mad” Joreen said to her before going to sit down at the far end of the restaurant with a sad expression. She wondered why her mother had reacted that way and suddenly left.

The only one who remained completely quiet was Miss Kang. None of them knew exactly what the woman was thinking.

The little room they both entered was where they made accounts and kept their records. Three wooden chairs were placed around a wodden table and there were some papers stacked on the table but the entire place looked neat and organised.

Changyu stood awkwardly after following him in. Truthfully, she didn't know why she had followed him in here in the first place. But it was the first time he was willing to say something to her. Wasn't it best for her to at least listen?

Maybe he was finally going to apologize to her right? She though hopefully.

”You should sit.” Jianjun said after pulling out a chair for her.

He had already performed the action before he thought about what he just did. Why on earth did he do that!? He scolded himself again.

Changyu didn't think much about it and just sat down with her legs crossed and hands folded in front of her chest as she eagerly waited to hear what Jianjun wanted to say.

After sitting down opposite her, he cleared his throat awkwardly before speaking.

”About earlier...”

”Yea I'm sorry about that. I really shouldn't have come. Sorry for disrupting your business” She cut him off to sincerely apologize sincerely.

She didn't regret coming though. Eating the food had actually given her the nostalgic feeling Sara had talked about. It was the reason she couldn't stop eating even though she had tasted the Sesame seed which she was actually allergic to.

”I....was going to say—” He paused and looked closely at her but was interrupted by something and so he stopped mid sentence.

He noticed her face was really flushed and he began to wonder why her face looked like that all of a sudden. Was she embarrassed or something?

But then, an action seemed to get his attention. He saw her scratch around her throat area. And he remembered he had seen her scratch it a couple of times already.
