Chapter 819
819 Returning late to see the day (14) _1
When Goldy opened its eyes, it was already bright outside the window. When it got up, it felt a chill at the corner of its eyes.
He reached out and touched it. There were some tears that had not dried.
It was strange. That was something that happened when she was young. She couldn’t accept it when she was young and cried. But now that she had grown up, she had accepted that Xu Chi didn’t like her.
After washing up, he changed his clothes and went downstairs.
Xu Chi had already prepared breakfast and placed it on the table. He was making coffee in the kitchen when he heard footsteps. He turned to look at her. do you want coffee? ”
“Yes, thank you.” She walked to the dining table and sat down.
Xu Chi walked over with two cups of coffee and placed one in front of her. we don’t have much time in the morning. Would a sandwich be okay? ”
sure, I’m used to having only one sandwich for breakfast when I was abroad.
After breakfast, the two of them packed up and left.
Xu Chi saw that she didn’t look well. He walked to the car and asked, ” didn’t you sleep well last night? ”
“Maybe it’s because I changed the bed.” She couldn’t admit that she had tossed and turned the entire night because of what he had said.
“I’ll drive. You can sleep in the car.”
He had taken the car keys last night, so he naturally sat in the driver’s seat.
Goldy hesitated for a moment before opening the door to the passenger seat.
The two of them did not speak along the way. Goldy even closed its eyes to catch up on sleep after getting into the car.
He had wanted to avoid facing Xu Chi and avoid the awkwardness, but he had fallen asleep unknowingly.
“Today, today, today, I’m sorry.”
Her low voice kept echoing in her ears. She slowly opened her eyes and looked at him blankly with her almond-shaped eyes. She called out subconsciously, ” brother ah sui, Wanwan.
Xu Chi’s body stiffened. Something was surging in his dark eyes as he stared at her. It was intense and hot.
Goldy came back to its senses and immediately sat up straight. It subconsciously looked out of the window and changed the topic in a panic. we’re here.
Xu Chi replied with an ” mm ” and seemed to have regained his calm. I’m in a hurry to go to the company. Can you lend me your car? ”
“Oh, sure!” She unbuckled her seatbelt and said, ” go and do your work then. Be careful on the road. Goodbye.
With that, she pushed open the car door and ran into the house as if she was running for her life.
Xu Chi said that he was in a hurry, but he did not start the car. Instead, he turned his head to look at the room where she had disappeared, and a touch of loneliness flashed in his eyes.
—
Goldy ran all the way back to her room. As she sat on the lazy sofa and panted, she couldn’t help but rub her face.
She had probably been sleeping too much. Although she hadn’t called him that for many years, she still instinctively blurted it out at that moment.
He wouldn’t misunderstand, right?
In fact, it was not a big deal to misunderstand him. He did not like her anyway.
She sat on the sofa like a dejected ball for a long time before she finally got up and went to the bathroom to take a shower and change into a set of home clothes.
She didn’t sleep well last night and had a slight headache, but she couldn’t fall asleep, so she turned on her computer to work.
First, she sent the proposal to Xie Yumu, then she received a call from Shanshui town. She was busy until noon when the servant came to call her for lunch.
In the afternoon, she took a taxi to Fu Xie Corporation. Xie Yumu had already finished reading her proposal and agreed to invest, but he also gave some suggestions.
Goldy felt that his suggestions were very good. It wrote them down one by one and left the rest to the company’s people to discuss.
Xie Yumu invited her to dinner, but she rejected.
She wanted to go back to Shanshui town, there were many things waiting for her to deal with there.
However, her car had been driven away by Xu Chi, so it seemed that she had to ask uncle cangming to send her.
When Goldy went downstairs to find a coffee shop to wait for uncle cangming, a red SUV stopped in front of her.
Xu Chi got out of the car and walked towards her.
“Brother Xu Chi, what are you doing here?” What happened in the morning still made her a little awkward, and the smile on her face was a little unnatural.
“I wanted to call you, but Xie Yumu said that you would come over in the afternoon to discuss the collaboration, so I drove the car over.”
A smile appeared on Goldy’s face, but she couldn’t help but complain in her heart that brother Yumu was really a big mouth. Why did he tell brother Xu Chi everything?
“Where are you going next?” Xu Chi asked, “are you going home? I’ll give you a ride.”
“No, I’m planning to go back to Shanshui town.” Goldy quickly replied, afraid that he would really send it home after answering.
“Now?” He frowned.
yes, there are a lot of things to do over there, and I can only feel at ease when I’m at the scene. The most important thing is that I don’t have to face you.
“Get in the car.” He tilted his head and motioned for her to get in the car.
Goldy: “??”
“It’s not safe for you to drive so far alone. I’ll drive you there.”
As he spoke, he had already opened the car door and was about to get in.
“Brother Xu Chi!”
Goldy couldn’t help but call out to him.
Xu Chi raised his head and looked at her. what’s wrong? ”
“I know you’re busy at the company, and I’m all grown up now, so you don’t have to take care of me like this.” With a calm expression, she said seriously, ” I can drive there by myself.
She had already driven back and forth countless times.
Xu Chi’s hand that was holding the car key tightened silently, and his eyes darkened. do you not want me to send you there? ”
Goldy pursed her lips and remained silent.
Indeed, he didn’t want to.
They were brother and sister, but they weren’t biological siblings. No matter how much they pretended to look like each other, they weren’t real siblings. Even if it was sister Jiayue, he wouldn’t take care of her so carefully.
The orange light of the setting sun fell on the two of them, and the atmosphere was strange and depressing.
After an unknown period of time, Xu Chi’s thin lips parted slightly. get in the car. I promise to leave after sending you to Shanshui town. I won’t appear in front of you again.
“Brother Xu Chi, I didn’t mean it that way, ran ran.”
Before she could finish, he had already gotten into the car and closed the door.
Goldy stood in place for a moment, then finally sat in the front passenger seat.
The entire journey to Shanshui town was silent.
Goldy looked at the dim scenery outside the window, and its heart fell into the darkness like the scenery, into the cold Lake.
She had already tried her best to be his sister, so why couldn’t she?
He clearly didn’t like her, so why was he still so good to her?
Why couldn’t they just keep their distance and be like an ordinary pair of siblings?
It was already night time when they arrived at Shanshui town. Although the street lamps were repaired, a few of them were broken, and no one repaired them, so the road was very dark.
Xu Chi parked the car in front of her house and handed her the car keys after he got out. rest early.
With that, he turned and left.
Goldy held the car keys and looked at his back. It couldn’t help but chase after him. brother Xu Chi, aww.
Xu Chi stopped in his tracks and turned to look at her.
it’s too late. There’s no car here to go back. Why don’t you rest here for the night before going back? ”
“No, the driver is already on his way.”
The moonlight was hazy, and his deep eyes were bottomless. He looked at her for a moment and waved his hand. take care of yourself. Go in.
With that, he turned around and left.

See you tomorrow.
