Chapter 412 He asked, "Where are we now?"
At noon, she sent her husband a message with the photos and videos of Yu Yu that she had taken that morning. After dinner, she sent him photos and videos of Yu Yu playing that afternoon.
My husband replied at noon, but not in the evening.
She knew then that her husband was busy.
The man must have finished his work by now to see the message she sent him.
Thinking about it, Zhou Yi opened the message.
【Asleep?】
With just two concise words, Zhou Yi's eyelashes fluttered as she opened the input box and replied.
A message was sent very quickly.
Wenren Chen held his phone, and as the message was sent, he looked at a photo in the chat box.
Zhou Yi held the little one in her arms, and the little one reached out to touch her face. Because the little one's hands were soft, they didn't use much force. The little one touched her face all over, which tickled her a bit, so she laughed and dodged away. Her fair and clean face was covered with smiles.
The photo shows her in the sunlight, with golden light falling on her face, making her face appear translucent and white.
"Woo~"
My phone vibrated; a new message appeared in the chat window.
Wenren Chen's eyes flickered, landing on the latest news.
【Sir, Yuyu is asleep. She fell asleep around 8 PM. Aunt Dong is watching over her now. I'm outside. My brother hasn't had dinner yet, so I'm having dinner with him. He seems to be having something on his mind and isn't in a good mood. I'll go back after dinner.】
Zhou Yi explained everything in detail without hiding anything.
Wenren Chen looked at him and saw that "he seemed to have something on his mind and was not in a good mood," his eyes narrowing.
Then, use your fingertip to tap the input box and type.
After sending the message, Zhou Yi put down his phone and started watching Qin Shi.
Qin Shi was looking at Zhou Yi when her phone rang, and his gaze fell on it.
He put down his chopsticks, took a napkin to wipe his lips, and watched her pick up her phone and tap on it.
As she put down her phone, he picked up his teacup, took a sip of tea, and said, "A friend?"
When Zhou saw Qin, he picked up his teacup to drink tea and then noticed the unfinished dishes on the table.
Now, Qin Shi asked her, and she looked up and replied, "No, it's you, sir."
Qin Shi paused, a cold glint flashing in his glasses under the light.
But the cold light was too fast for Zhou Yi to see.
“I sent my husband a message last night, sending him the photos and videos I took of Yuyu. He was away on a business trip last night and won’t be back until next week. He misses Yuyu very much.”
Qin Shi lowered his eyes, put down his teacup, and asked, "When will he be back?"
Zhou Yi said, "Sir, you mean next Tuesday."
"But it's not certain. Mr. hasn't been on any business trips during this time; he's been busy in Yunzhou City."
"Ah."
Zhou Yi looked at Qin Shi and asked, "Brother..."
As soon as I spoke, my phone pinged, and a message came in.
Zhou Yi paused slightly, then said, "Brother, wait a moment."
After saying that, he picked up his phone.
It's a message from the gentleman.
She clicked it.
Where are you now?
Seeing these still very few words, Zhou Yi typed: 【On the Clouds.】
Wenren Chen didn't take off his phone or look at the photos again. His eyes were on the chat box. As Zhou Yi sent a message, the three words "Yunshangjing" came into view.
At this moment, the atmosphere here became still.
After sending the message, Zhou Yi checked the time and found it was already past ten o'clock, which was quite late.
She put down her phone, looked at Qin Shi, and continued the sentence she hadn't finished speaking: "Brother, did something happen to you?"
I sensed something was on his mind, otherwise he wouldn't have come to ask her out for dinner at this time.
Qin Shi watched as Zhou Yi picked up her phone to reply to a message, then put it down again. Looking at the phone, he said, "It's nothing."
Zhou Yi was stunned.
Are you okay?
Zhou Yi's lips moved, looking at Qin Shi's cold expression, unable to discern his thoughts, and said, "Brother, if you encounter anything, you can tell me. I may not be able to help you, but speaking up might make things better."
Hearing those gentle, concerned words, Qin Shi looked into those clear, innocent eyes and said, "No."
Zhou Yi remained silent.
She could tell her brother was troubled, but he wouldn't say anything.
I didn't want her to worry.
With her eyelashes fluttering and her eyes crinkling, Zhou Yi said, "Brother, next week when Mr. returns from his business trip, I'll ask him for leave and treat you to dinner."
Qin Shi looked at the soft, innocent face and smiled, saying, "Okay."
The two had almost finished their dinner, and it was getting late. Qin Shi picked up his phone and said, "Let's go."
Zhou Yi nodded: "Okay."
My brother has to go to work tomorrow, so he needs to go home and rest early.
Thinking it over, the two left the private room. As they walked, Zhou Yi said, "Brother, you don't need to take me home. I'll just take a taxi. It's far from home. You should go home early and get some rest."
It's far from the rented house; it takes a long drive.
My brother took her back, and by the time she finished washing up and getting ready, it was even later.
Qin Shi took her hand and enveloped her small hand in his palm: "No need."
He led her away, and Zhou Yi looked at him with worry in her eyes: "Brother, I..."
"Miss Zhou?"
A surprised voice came from behind.
Zhou Yi paused, then stopped and turned around.
Qin Shi heard the voice behind him, his eyes flickered, he looked at the person beside him, and then followed her gaze to the person standing in front.
Her long, flowing hair cascaded smoothly down her back, her face wore tasteful, light makeup, and she wore a sophisticated, simply-colored long dress. At first glance, she was the epitome of a refined and elegant heiress. Qin Shi looked at Dong Pingting, his hands in his pockets, and remained silent.
"Miss Dong?"
Zhou Yi was quite surprised to see the person in front of him.
Dong Pingting smiled gently, her gaze falling on Qin Shi's hand holding Zhou Yi's, and her smile deepened.
She walked over and stopped in front of Zhou Yi, saying gently, "I just glanced at you and thought I was seeing things, but when I came out and looked, I realized I wasn't mistaken. It really is Miss Zhou."
Although Zhou Yi was surprised to meet Dong Pingting here, she smiled as she looked at the person standing in front of her: "Yes, I didn't expect to meet Miss Dong here. What a coincidence."
Dong Pingting said, "Yes, it was unexpected, but very pleasant to meet you here."
After saying that, Dong Pingting looked at Qin Shi and said, "You came here to eat with your boyfriend?"
Zhou Yi quickly said, "No..."
"Ah."
A clear, cold monosyllable escaped from Qin Shi's throat.
Zhou Yi was stunned and looked at Qin Shi.
Upon hearing Qin Shi's "hmm," Dong Pingting's smile widened, and she said to Zhou Yi, "Your boyfriend is very handsome, and you two are a perfect match."
Zhou Yi's lips moved, and she said, "Miss Dong, no, we..."
“Pingting”.
A voice came from ahead.
Dong Pingting turned around, looked at the person who came out, and said, "Wait for me a moment."
The person who called her laughed and said, "Okay."
Go in.
Dong Pingting looked away and said to Zhou Yi, "Miss Zhou and I are truly destined to meet. What I said on the phone today was from the bottom of my heart. Please don't be embarrassed, Miss Zhou."
Looking at the gentle person in front of her, Zhou Yi said sincerely without any perfunctory attitude, "No, Miss Zhou. If I have any difficulties that I cannot resolve, I will call you."
Dong Pingting smiled with satisfaction: "Alright, then I won't say anything more."
After speaking, he looked at Qin Shi.
