Chapter 614

After he got out of the car that night, he never returned to Xinghai Villa.

There was also no message of any kind within three days.

The light in Shu Xia's eyes trembled slightly.

Then, she withdrew her gaze quickly and without a trace.

Perhaps, maintaining a marriage life with this kind of distance for three years was not bad either.

It was just that somewhere deep in her heart, something was vaguely reminding her that she was being a bit emotional.

Or even that she was avoiding something.

She deliberately downplayed it and then chose not to dwell on it; it just so happened that she had many things to be busy with over these two days, from morning till night, and sometimes she would even have to work overtime.

Some things...

Let's talk about them after she is done being busy.

——

Qiao Group.

After the meeting ended, Zhang Tezhu brought over several documents that needed to be signed.

For these three days, staying by Qiao's side had been like staying on an execution ground.

Wasn't Qiao in a good mood that day at the hotel? The matter of the Shen Family drugging him was already being handled, and the Shen Family would soon pay the price for everything they had done.

He had only found out two days ago that Qiao had not returned to Xinghai Villa and had been staying elsewhere for the past two days.

Then he asked the driver, but the driver wouldn't leak a single word.

Judging by the situation, had he had a falling out with Shu Xia?

After Qiao Muting finished signing the documents, Zhang Tezhu took them and prepared to walk out.

He had only taken a few steps when he was called to a halt by Qiao Muting.

"Wait a moment."

Zhang Tezhu's heart skipped a beat, and he immediately looked at Qiao Muting ingratiatingly, "Does Qiao have any other instructions?"

"Has Shu Xia asked you about my whereabouts?" Qiao Muting asked with dark eyes.

Zhang Tezhu only dared to glance at him once before quickly withdrawing his gaze, answering truthfully: "No."

After the words slipped out, he immediately realized something was wrong.

Sure enough, Qiao Muting's expression became visibly more frigid and sharp.

"Get out."

A sharp shout reached his ears, and Zhang Tezhu scrambled out as fast as if he were fleeing a famine.

Goodness!

He had just taken a trip through hell.

The moment the door closed, Qiao Muting threw the fountain pen in his hand directly.

A few words wrapped in ice shards spilled from his thin lips, "Shu Xia, you really are something!"

Scum woman!

——

After Zhang Tezhu escaped, he hid in the pantry.

After making himself a cup of strong coffee, he held the cup and fell into serious contemplation.

Suddenly, a bright idea struck him.

He sent a message to Shu Xia.

【Madam, the cheongsam that Qiao ordered for you a while ago will be ready this afternoon. You need to go try it on in person to see if there are any adjustments needed. I have to say, Qiao is truly good to you, Madam!】

He knew that Shu Xia would be very busy after starting work and would have almost no time to reply to messages.

However, once Shu Xia finished her work and saw it, she would definitely reply to him.

He was so clever; he would take his boss to inspect a project near the cheongsam shop this afternoon, and then when the two of them met...

Hehe.
