C57 (1/2)

Having heard the muted voice on the other end of the phone, Xi Jianzhe hung up and tried again. The other party had actually turned off his phone!

Chen Xi Wu was still so stubborn!

Even though she knew that this call was from him, she still hung up.

He stared at the phone number on the screen in a daze. If she didn't answer, then she didn't. At most, he could just find a way to see her today.

There was a knock on the office door. He locked his cell phone and threw it on the table. He said warmly to the door, ”Come in!”

”Hubby, I'm here to pick you up from work.” Like a beautiful butterfly, Abby danced into Xi's arms.

He pulled her out of his arms, scratched her nose and held her up. ”I'm still working. Are you done?”

”Yeah, you know, Daddy left a lot of good people behind, and my job was easy. ”It's not like you, look at how haggard you are. I've just instructed the butler to make some more soup for you tonight. It's time for you to make it up to them.”

Abby wanted to throw himself into her arms, but he held out his arm to stop her. ”Don't be ridiculous. Wait for me on the sofa. I need to take care of something.”

Abby, who had been rejected, did not make a fuss. He just stared at Abby with his big, watery eyes and pursed lips. His peripheral vision fell on the document at the corner of the table.

From Golden Age Group?

She lowered her eyes as she thought about something, but she still remained by his side: ”I just want to be closer to you so you can focus on your work. I guarantee that I won't disturb you.”

He shook his head and looked at her with a gentle smile, ”Be good, I am easily distracted here.”
