“What? Don’t you know she’s pregnant?” Sheng Yize fought hard to keep his temper at bay.
Fang Shanshan wasn’t intimidated at all. “Uncle, Xiaxia is my good friend. I wouldn’t tell you even if I knew where she was!”
Sheng Yize nearly choked. “Am I not making myself clear enough here?”
“No, you are,” said Fang Shanshan earnestly, “but I just feel that she’s not happy around you, so I’m with her when she says that she needs some time alone.”
Moreover, Kang Jian was with her, so she would be completely safe~
Let Uncle Sheng reflect on his own behavior, so that he wouldn’t upset Xiaxia all the time when she came back.
Sheng Yize was speechless. The two women hadn’t known each other for very long and they were BFFs now?
Realizing that there was no hope of getting any information from Fang Shanshan, he could only send other people to find An Xiaxia’s whereabouts.
The investigation came back empty after a few days. One day, his assistant gingerly went up to him for his signature. “Mr. Sheng, please have a look at this contract.”
Sheng Yize quickly skimmed through the pages, then signed it.
The assistant promptly left with the file. Opening the door, he saw Miss Feng, the secretary, strutting toward the office. She was all dressed up and had a cup of coffee in her hand.
“Why, Miss Feng, Mr. Sheng isn’t in a good mood right now. I think you better come back later.” The assistant gave her a kind warning.
Miss Feng rolled her eyes. “I’m here to see Mr. Sheng. Mind your own business!”
These words annoyed the assistant. Fine, he shouldn’t have said anything! Have it her way!
This stupid woman could dig her own grave all she wanted!
“Mr. Sheng~” Miss Feng greeted Sheng Yize in her saccharine voice. He frowned and looked up. “Yes?”
Looking into those brooding eyes that reminded her of a starry sky, Miss Feng felt her heart skip a beat.
Although she had been told that Sheng Yize was already married, that didn’t stop her from liking him.
Her sole purpose for working at Shengshi was to get in bed with Sheng Yize for her and her family’s benefit.
“You’ve been working for ages. Have some coffee.” Miss Feng put the cup on the desk. Sheng Yize acknowledged it indifferently and went back to work.
Ignored, Miss Feng stood there awkwardly. She then tried to read the expression on his face. When it came to the things that would irk a man, it was most likely either work or women. Shengshi was growing steadily these days and had nailed a few major projects. Sheng Yize was at the pinnacle of his career.
So, not work. A woman, then?
Clearing her throat, Miss Feng used what she considered her most considerate tone and asked, “Mr. Sheng, has something happened between you and your wife?”
Sheng Yize never liked others to pry into his relationship. However, he was rather desperate at the moment and he asked, “Where would you go after a fight with your boyfriend?”
Miss Feng said shyly, “I’m still single.”
“I see.”
Sheng Yize ignored her again.
Seeing his reaction, Miss Feng added right away, “Girls will mostly likely go back to their parents or go stay with a close friend. Most of the time, we don’t want to be all by ourselves in that situation.”
“Go back to their parents…” Sheng Yize mumbled. He suddenly rose to his feet and went out to get his assistant. “Check where An Yibei is at the moment.”
“Mr. An took annual leave three days ago. He’s on FX Island now.”
FX Island…
That was where Su Xiaomo was, too.
“Book me a ticket to FX Island.” Sheng Yize rubbed his forehead. He was almost sure that he would find An Xiaxia there.
“Um, Mr. Sheng, what are you…”
“I’m getting my wife back.”
Behind him, Miss Feng felt like slapping herself.
Damn it! Instead of getting Sheng Yize to notice her, she had helped him with his marriage!
