章 367: I Could Tell

On the other end came Qiao Yanjue's slightly tired voice, "I've been dealing with a bit of business these last few days, so I didn't have time to call."

When she heard the explanation and the fatigue behind his words, Xia Xibei's resentment dissipated.

"Were you very busy?"

"Pretty busy." 

Qiao Yanjue didn't deny it. 

He has flown to several places in the past few days.

In addition to handling the investments at hand, he also made a trip back home.

He told his parents that he would handle his own affairs and there was no need for them to worry.

He did not reveal this to Xia Xibei, but with his firm attitude, his parents did not continue to press him.

After all, he wasn't that old and wasn't in a hurry.

"I thought you'd been too happy to miss home." Xia Xibei's tone was unconsciously a bit sour.

Qiao Yanjue chuckled, "I've indeed been too happy to miss home."
