Chapter 656: The Man Who Returned in the Middle of the Night
She turned to look at Xiangyi in confusion.
When he met her gaze, Xiangyi said, “They were sent by Master.”
Zuo Weiyi looked back at the people in the courtyard before walking into the house.
When she walked in, she was a little tired, so she went straight to the second floor to rest.
s.h.i.+ Nuannuan glanced at Xiangyi before quickly going upstairs to take a nap.
…
In the evening, the sky gradually darkened, and Zuo Weiyi finally woke up.
Recently, she really liked to sleep more and more. She always felt that she couldn’t get enough sleep no matter how much she slept.
She sat up from the bed and looked at the gradually darkening sky outside the window. She suddenly remembered that Xiao Cui was at the hospital so she had to cook dinner herself.
She got up from the bed and just as she walked into the living room, she saw s.h.i.+ Nuannuan sitting on the sofa.
“Sister-in-law, you’re awake?”
“Yes.” She smiled and walked straight to the kitchen.
Not long after, she walked out again. “Nuannuan, do you want noodles?”
She didn’t really feel like eating rice that night, so she decided to order noodles. She just didn’t know if Nuannuan would like them.
Nuannuan was reading a fas.h.i.+on magazine on the sofa when she replied. “Sure, anything is fine.”
Thus, Zuo Weiyi ordered three servings of noodles. Of course, the other serving was for Xiangyi.
Half an hour later, s.h.i.+ Nuannuan could not resist the temptation of the fragrance. She put down the magazine and ran in.
“Wow, it looks so delicious.”
As she spoke, she had already sat down at the dining table.
“Oh, whose is this?” She pointed at the other serving.
“Xiangyi’s. Call him in to eat.”
Hearing this, s.h.i.+ Nuannuan was stunned for half a second before she quickly got up and ran outside to pull Xiangyi in.
But Xiangyi did not have any intention to sit down. Instead, he said softly, “Thank you for Young Madam’s kindness, but I’ve already eaten.”
As he spoke, he turned around and walked out of the door.
s.h.i.+ Nuannuan could not help but purse her lips as she watched him leave.
He had clearly been standing at the door the entire time. When did he get the time to eat?
But Zuo Weiyi also understood his reason, so she did not force him. Instead, she sat down and ate with Nuannuan.
…
After dinner, she watched TV on the sofa for a while. Only when it was nine o’clock did Zuo Weiyi go upstairs to rest.
Perhaps it was because she had slept for too long in the afternoon that she did not feel sleepy after repeatedly lying on the bed.
As the night gradually deepened, Zuo Weiyi was finally able to close her eyes slowly.
She suddenly heard the sound of someone opening the door, but she was just too sleepy and fell into a deep sleep within a few seconds.
The man who had returned in the middle of the night quietly laid down beside her.
A small light turned on in the room. Under the light, s.h.i.+ Yuting looked at her sleeping face and thought that he seemed to be increasingly unable to leave this woman.
Just because she had a meal with other men, even when there was someone else present, he could not wait to put down the important matters of the country at hand and specifically flew back from C Country. Was he already intoxicated with her?
Just looking at her sleeping face, s.h.i.+ Yuting felt an unprecedented sense of satisfaction, and a perfect smile appeared on his face.
But then, he suddenly raised his head. Who would have thought that in the eyes of outsiders, a cold, ruthless, decisive man who had never been controlled by any other would one day be infatuated with a woman called Zuo Weiyi? Where was his dignity?
