Chapter 36: Don't smell the old man crying (6)

Ji Xinxin's car stopped directly at the door of Shi's house. She raised her eyes and looked at the majestic and gorgeous house in front of her. The dark and lacquered houses formed a sharp contrast with the brightly lit villas in the neighboring area.
Ji Xinxin raised her eyebrows lightly, and there was a trace of ridicule. She squinted and looked at Ling Chuxia, "Look at this dark house, you are not alone? Anyway, your husband hasn't returned for a year and a half. Several times, I really don’t know why you are always anxious to go home."
What good is this house no matter how gorgeous it is? I live alone and worry about haunting at night.
Ling Chuxia seemed to have not heard her, her lips twitched, and she smiled at Ji Xinxin with a gentle voice, "Thank you for picking me up and sending me back. If you have time, I will invite you to dinner."
While talking, Ling Chuxia unfastened the seat belt, pushed the door and got out of the car.
Ji Xinxin seemed to have nothing to say to her, she stared at her with beautiful big eyes, and spit out two words fiercely, "Virtue!" Then he started the car, stepped on the accelerator, and the car quickly left.
Ling Chuxia stood there, watching her car go away, then slowly turned around and walked towards the house.

Shi Che drove away from the company in the afternoon and searched the road for a long time, but did not see Ling Chuxia. Seeing that the sky gradually darkened, his eyebrows became darker and his thin lips pressed tightly.
He guessed the route that Ling Chuxia might take. He went all the way around. In just a few hours, he almost circled the entire Liangcheng half a circle until he received a call from Lao Zhu again.
"Master, don't look for it anymore, the young lady is home safely."
Shi Che's hand holding the phone trembled involuntarily, but his voice changed, "Really?"
"Yes, I just called home and said that Mrs. Young is back. Miss Ji sent her back."
The light in Shi Che's eyes floated slightly, and he was silent for a while, then said lightly, "I know." Then, he hung up the phone and threw the phone aside.
He put his hands on the steering wheel and buckled his thumbs lightly. Then, the corners of his lips twitched, and a thick touch of self-deprecation rose rapidly from the bottom of his heart.
He didn't know how Ling Chuxia called Ji Xinxin to take her home in that situation, but... never, she was the first person to think of, and the first person to ask for help, when she was in danger and in difficulties. He will never be his husband. Perhaps, in her heart, his husband is the strangest person.
Shi Che smiled coldly, his inner self-deprecation gradually became manic, making his eyebrows a little more hostile, he started the car, stepped on the accelerator hard, and the car rushed out like lightning.

Ling Chuxia entered the room, walked to the sofa, and sat down. She did not turn on the light, and sat quietly in the dark, feeling very tired for the first time.
