Chapter 14 – Where Are You?
Su Jishi sat in front of the computer with a serious expression on her face. Her fingernails painted scarlet danced on the keyboard, knocking out a series of beautiful English sentences.
When the last punctuation mark landed on the screen, she exhaled loudly and clicked the send button. Her whole person finally relaxed.
“Ahem. Su Jishi, what are you writing?” Without her awareness, Fang Xie stood behind her, stole a peep from the screen and looked at the full screen of professional vocabulary he couldn’t understand.
He could only wait for her to explain it to him.
Su Jishi closed the computer and didn’t have the spirit to answer.
“Well?” Fang Xie crossed his arms. “As your manager, I should know every—”
Before he could finish, Su Jishi lifted her open palm and shrugged her shoulders before speaking.
“What else can I do? I wrote an email to my tutor to apply for a long vacation. I am studying to become a doctor, and still has my thesis unfinished. At such a critical moment, I must return to China and stay for a year, which we both know will never happen. I gave the school a reason to leave. “
“I see.” Fang Xie had his hand on his chin, “And what reason did you use?”
She turned her chair and looked at him seriously. “I told them the truth.”
“Eh?!!”
Before this misunderstanding escalates into full-blown series of crying and praying to God for mercy, Su Jishi made her vague answer clearer.
“I told my tutor that my mother died and my sister was missing. My sister owed a large sum of money before she disappeared so I went back to China to help her deal with the debt. “
Fang Xie: “….”
Indeed she said only the truth, not a word was false.
