Chapter 346 - Difficult to Fall Asleep (1/2)
Li Qin Yao clocked out early after she had finished working on the important documents. Then, she took Han Yue Xiu to drive around to the site and showed her the progress before the two girls stopped by a restaurant to eat.
The two of them spent their time catching up and eating until Song Yi gave Han Yue Xiu a call to pick her up as they needed to catch up on their flight.
Han Yue Xiu could not stay away from Capital City for too long as she was worried about her parents and Li Qin Yao suspected that Song Yi only came over to follow Han Yue Xiu. Or else, why would he stay by Han Yue Xiu's side when she went to see the agent who was interested in her house?
Though she did not like Song Yi with how he had treated her friend at the beginning, Li Qin Yao could see that Song Yi had changed. Perhaps, he liked Han Yue Xiu but did not know how he should treat her, and thus, their relationship went from bad to worse.
Once the two went on their way, Li Qin Yao returned to the apartment with Nian Ting following her. As she entered the house, Li Qin Yao could smell something delicious coming from the kitchen and soon, Auntie Su came out.
”Mrs. Zhang, you have returned,” Auntie Su greeted. ”Are you hungry? The food will be ready soon.”
”No need to rush. I will go and change first,” Li Qin Yao glanced at Nian Ting who stood right silently behind her and continued, ”Auntie Su, Nian Ting will be staying here to accompany me until my husband return. Just cook a little bit more.”
Auntie Su nodded before she went back into the kitchen to cook.
When Li Qin Yao done washing up, Auntie Su had finished cooking and the food was served on the table.
Feeling her stomach started to grumble, Li Qin Yao patted at her stomach lightly and wonder why does the child in her belly like eating so much. These past few days, Li Qin Yao had noticed her increase in appetite and was worried that her weight would increase tremendously.
”Mrs. Zhang, I have boiled some soup for you,” Auntie Su called out. ”Come. Drink before the soup gets cold.”
Li Qin Yao looked at the food on the table and turned to Nian Ting who was standing not too far from them.
”Miss Nian, come over and eat. Auntie Su cooked a lot and I will not be able to finish everything.” She saw Nian Ting's hesitation and continued, ”Anyway, my husband is not here and I don't think that I will have much appetite if I have to eat alone.” She then turned to Auntie Su and asked the elder lady to join her as well.
Li Qin Yao had her dinner with Auntie Su and Nian Ting accompanying her. Although she had tried to make some conversation with Nian Ting, the girl would only gave her a short answer. In the end, Li Qin Yao can only chat with Auntie Su while she ate.
Once she had finished her meal, Li Qin Yao watched the television for a while and decided that there was not anything interesting to watch. After saying a few words to Nian Ting, she then returned to her room.
As she laid back on the bed, Li Qin Yao suddenly thought that the room was too quiet without her husband's presence. She took her phone on the side table and texted him.
Zhang Yu Han's reply came back a few seconds later. He did not write long, only to inform her that he still has something going on and asked her to go to bed first.
