When Shen Zhilie noticed Ye Qianqian’s silence, he inevitably went silent.
Shen Zhilie looked down and ate his food in silence. After he polished off everything Ye Qianqian did not like to eat, he lifted his head and asked, “What time do you knock off from work? I’ll come pick you up.”
“It’s alright. I might need to work overtime today since I was absent from work yesterday.”
Between her words, Ye Qianqian glanced toward Shen Zhilie’s arm and asked, “Is it serious?”
The sense of uneasiness that had clouded over Shen Zhilie was instantly put to rest.
When Shen Zhilie noticed the look of concern on her face, his eyes gradually lit up with gaiety. He said, “It’s nothing serious.”
“Alright, that’s great then.” Ye Qianqian rose from her seat. “I’m done. I’ll get the bill. You can head back to the hospital.”
“I can be discharged already. There’s no need to go back to the hospital.” Shen Zhilie quickly stood up. “I’ll stay at home from now on. The hospital gave me a month off. I only need to head back when it’s time to remove the st.i.tches.”
“OK,” Ye Qianqian said before she turned around. “I’ll get the bill. You can take your time to eat. I can’t finish the food.”
“Yeah.” Shen Zhilie watched her silhouette. “Be on your way then. I’ll pick you up tonight.”
“It’s alright.” Ye Qianqian turned without looking back.
Shen Zhilie heaved a sigh of relief in his seat.
…
Ye Qianqian had arrived late. By the time she returned to the office, it was already past 10 a.m.
It would soon be lunch break if she worked for over an hour more.
Since Ye Qianqian just had a meal, she was not hungry. She remained in the office to complete the work she had yet to finish.
She was unable to bury herself with work and work in peace. She soon received a call.
It was Fang Tongtong.
When Ye Qianqian saw the name, she immediately paused with the task at hand.
Her phone continuously vibrated. The supplementary details for Fang Tongtong were exceptionally glaring: My Cutest Bestie.
Cutest? Bestie?
Ye Qianqian thought about it for a moment, but she ultimately decided to hang up the call and used the phone’s automated text message reply: [h.e.l.lo, I’m busy at the moment. Please call me again later ^_^]
The amicable tone of voice used sounded estranged beyond words, yet everything seemed to go without saying.
However, Ye Qianqian merely felt a little pathetic. Even though she stared at the computer in front of her, she could not seem to enter the right state of mind for work.
Ding-dong!
It was a WeChat message from Fang Tongtong.
MyCutestBestie: [Qianqian, I’m returning to Yun Town.]
Although it was a mere few words, Ye Qianqian stared at them for a very long time.
A few more minutes pa.s.sed before Fang Tongtong sent her another WeChat message: Shen is a good man. You should cherish him. Don’t be so willful in the future. He was very depressed about the slap you gave him yesterday.]
When Ye Qianqian saw that, she let out a mirthless, angry laugh.
Sissi: [Let’s talk? Where are you?]
MyCutestBestie: [At home.]
Sissi: [My home?]
MyCutestBestie: [Yeah, I’m packing up. Shen’s helping me out with it. He’s persuading me not to leave, but I don’t think that that’s very appropriate.]
MyCutestBestie: [I know that what I’ve said might have led to your misunderstanding, but I never said that the person I was taking care of lately was my boyfriend. You merely misunderstood…]
The more Ye Qianqian looked at her text, the more incredulous she found it to be. She burst out into laughter before she responded with a few question marks.
No matter how she looked at it, the word “Bestie” was an extreme eyesore. She tapped into it and changed it to “DeviousWh.o.r.e.”
DeviousWh.o.r.e: [It’s fine by me, but Shen could barely hold his head up high in the hospital because of the slap that you gave him yesterday. We both understand you, so we won’t fault you for it. I wish both of you happiness.]
