Chapter 316: I'll be waiting
Chen walked out as soon as Xia was done, who hurriedly grabbed his keys and rushed after her.
Mi Chang, left alone at the bungalow, frowned.
She had of course noticed that the woman, Yu Chen, had been wearing what was obviously Si Xia's t-shirt and boxers. What was weird that she seemed oddly comfortable in them.
But what had surprised her the most had been Xia's behaviour, the way he was running behind her. Like she was a queen or something.
Mi Chang had never seen the proud Si Xia act like this around anybody, let alone kneeling and putting on shoes, he never let anyone talk to him in a loud voice!
Yu Chen did not speak even a word as Si Xia drove her back. He had never seen her this angry, not even after whatever he had done to her. She never really got mad.
Si Xia leaned out of the window as he stopped the car and Yu Chen got out.
"Chen!" he called out.
Yu Chen did not reply, but she walked around the car to stand in front of his window. Si Xia noticed that she was shivering a little and said, "I'm sorry Chen. That was all I wanted to say. Just.....give me a second chance."
Yu Chen blinked and said, "I'll need some time."
As she turned around to walk away, Si Xia called again, "Chen!!"
Yu Chen stopped but did not turn around.
"I'll be waiting. I'll wait for you forever." he said in a small voice. His words seemed like baseless promise to himself after what he had done the past few days.
Yu Chen stood for a few seconds before she walked away.
Si Xia's chest felt in pain. Though he knew he did not deserve it, he couldn't help hoping that he would get a reply from Yu Chen.
He stared after Yu Chen for a few minutes before driving away.
Si Xia was in no mood to go to the company, so he drove back to his home.
Xia threw the keys on a table as Mi Chang ran to meet him. "Xia? You're back?! Don't you have to go to the company today? I made breakfast. Come, eat!" she said.
Si Xia held his head, "I'm tired Chang. I'll go lie down for a bit. Don't disturb me."
"You're tired? Are you not feeling well? Do you want me to make congee or soup?" Mi Chang pestered.
Si Xia shook his head and headed up the stairs.
He walked in his room and sat on the bed with a thump. He was deep in thought when the ringing of a phone brought him to reality.
He pulled out his phone but it was silent.
Xia frowned as he looked for the source of the sound. He found that it was coming from Chen's purse which she had forgotten.
Si Xia walked over and fished out the ringing phone. He picked it up upon seeing the caller ID.
"Chen? Where are you? Are you fine?" Xi Hua's voice rung through the phone.
"I dropped off Chen at the apartment. She forgot her purse here." Si Xia replied.
"Xia?? Si Xia????" the shock was clear in Hua's voice.
