Chapter 306: Depressed
Su Jin felt lost and was extremely depressed. On the way home, she closed her eyes and did not say a word. Xi Chenxiao looked at her, heart aching, but he did not know what to say. He could only pat her back gently to comfort her.
Perhaps it was extreme fatigue or Xi Chenxiao’s chest felt so safe that Su Jin fell asleep unknowingly. She was still asleep when the motorcade arrived at the manor. Xi Chenxiao saw that she was sleeping so soundly so he ordered Xi Tian,
“Continue to drive around the manor. Drive stably. Madam is sleeping.”
Xi Tian was speechless as he drove. He didn’t need to witness any lovey-dovey today! He was just driving and minding his own f*cking business. He didn’t need this. He could buy his own food and the chairman needn’t feed him this!
When the people in the manor saw the chairman’s car driving non-stop round and round the manor at an extremely low speed, slower than walking pace, they started talking,
!!
“The chairman’s car, is it a fake? It’s moving too slowly. I’m faster even if I ride a tricycle!”
“Exactly. The chairman must have been tricked. Don’t even talk about riding a tricycle! I think I can walk faster than this car.”
“Alright, everyone, stop gossiping. The chairman has a lot of money. Maybe he likes fake cars like this?”
When night fell, Su Jin was woken up by the sound of bugs outside the car. The weather was slightly hot. Even though the air conditioner was on in the car, Xi Chenxiao was afraid of stale recycled air so he cracked open a window to improve air circulation. All so that Su Jin could sleep well.
However, he did not expect that this would wake her up. He also did not expect the bug sounds outside was so loud. After Su Jin woke up, she rubbed her ears and grumbled,
“This is so annoying. Why are there bug sounds?”
Xi Chenxiao frowned when he heard this. The bug sounds were indeed longer than expected. To prevent future disturbance to Su Jin, he ordered Xi Tian,
“Xi Tian, have someone get rid of all the bugs tomorrow. Don’t leave a single one behind.”
Xi Tian’s face darkened when he heard this. d.a.m.n it, how would he get rid of all the bugs? He couldn’t catch them one by one, could he? Moreover, it’s summer and there would be bugs! Chairman, would you be asking me to pluck the moon from the sky next time? Xi Tian replied unsurely,
“Chairman, I’ll arrange for people to spray pesticides tomorrow. Some bugs can’t be caught at all.”
Xi Chenxiao frowned. Pesticides were useful but they are harmful to the human body. He did not mind, but his girl might. So, he said coldly to Xi Tian,
“You can’t do that. Madam likes to hang out at the garden. The smell of the pesticides is too pungent. She’ll be unhappy. Besides, pesticides are poisonous. What if Madam inhales the poison?”
Xi Tian was helpless. It looked like he would have to catch the bugs one by one! But Xi Tian realized that the usually aloof chairman, a man of few words, had talked so much.
The point was, he had never even seen Madam hang out in the garden. He didn’t want to catch bugs! He was not a dragonfly or a frog, and even if he was, he couldn’t guarantee that he would catch all the bugs!
Although Su Jin was awake, she was still a little confused. She heard Xi Chenxiao’s voice, but she did not hear what he said. She struggled to open her eyes to clear her head as she asked softly,
“Boss, are we home yet?”
When Xi Chenxiao heard Su Jin call him boss again, his gentle expression instantly reverted to his usual ice mountain. This wretched girl only called him Hubby when she needed him! He replied coldly,
“Yes, we are home.”
Su Jin was confused when she heard the coldness in his voice. Why was Devil Xi angry again? She had been asleep all this while so it couldn’t be her who made him angry. Could it be Xi Tian?
However, Xi Tian didn’t look like it either. What was wrong with him? In order not to aggravate Devil Xi, she looked at him carefully and asked,
“Boss, what happened? Did someone offend you?”
