Chapter 2335: A Empty Heart
Throughout the second half of the night, the man kept asking for love. When it was almost dawn, he finally fell asleep beside her. Xue Yating was tired and sleepy, but she did not dare to sleep.
Why did it feel like his stomach wasn’t acting up at all?
Why was he still as vicious and fierce as before?
But she did not dare to think too much. Now that the man had finally let her go, she had to escape while he was still unconscious.
Xue Yating ran away from Shui-mo Lan Ting Residence in a panic as if there was a man-eating monster behind her. After she ran back to the An family home, she took a shower and changed her clothes before getting rid of An Jichuan’s smell.
The sky was still dark. Xue Yating lay on the bed to catch up on her sleep, but she could not fall asleep.
All she could think of was the ridiculous night she had with An Jichuan. She had only gone to deliver the medicine, but in the end, she had been used as an antidote.
Oh my god!
How embarrassing!
It was not until dawn that Xue Yating fell asleep. When she woke up, it was already morning.
She heard a familiar voice coming from the living room. It was Rong Lihua and An Jichuan.
“Tingting, you’re up! What do you want to eat? I’ll get the kitchen to prepare it for you,” Rong Lihua said.
“No need, mom. I’m not hungry.”
“Oh, you came down just in time to have a chat with Ji Chuan. I’ll go see Binbin and Lele first.”
Rong Lihua got up and walked outside. Xue Yating stood where she was and looked at An Jichuan awkwardly. An Jichuan leaned on the sofa and turned to her with a faint smile. “Tina, why did you suddenly return to Rongcheng?”
Xue Yating looked at the man’s perfect and handsome face and took a deep breath, pretending that nothing had happened. “I’m back to see the children.”
“Mm.”
“I heard from my mother that you were the one who gave me the stomach medicine last night, right? Thank you.”
“Oh, you’re welcome.”
Xue Yating smiled awkwardly and let out a sigh of relief in her heart. He probably didn’t remember what happened last night, right? Fortunately, it was fortunate. Otherwise, it would have been so awkward.
Just as they were talking, An Jichuan’s phone rang. The man looked at the phone screen, then got up from the sofa and picked up the phone.
“Hello? I’m at home! I miss you!”
The man’s voice was so gentle that it was numbing. He glanced at Xue Yating, probably because he didn’t want her to hear him, and turned to walk towards the door.
Xue Yating looked at An Jichuan’s back as he left and felt her heart fall into a deep valley.
There was a problem in front of her that she could not ignore. The man that she had always regarded as a monster had now found his other half, and their relationship had a new home.
She should be happy for him, but why was her heart so empty?
It was as if a hole had been dug in and the wind had been pouring in. It felt empty, aching and lost.
After An Jichuan finished his call, he came in to greet her. “Tina, you’re here. I have something to do at the company, so I’ll go now.”
He waved and quickly disappeared through the door.
Xue Yating took a deep breath. What company was he busy with? He must be going to accompany his girlfriend.
For the next two days, Xue Yating did not see An Jichuan again. Mu Chenguang called twice and urged her to leave. Xue Yating could only pack her luggage and prepare to leave.
Before leaving, Xue Yating went to her mother-in-law to discuss. “Mom, I want to take Binbin and Lele to my father’s place for a while. I’ll send them back after a while, okay?”
