Chapter 892: Wifey, Don’t Go (2)
It seemed to have all started… after that incident.
Si Jingyu clenched her fists and bit her lips tightly at the thought of that incident.
It was a few moments before her gaze rested on the office building.
The lights on the sixth and seventh floors were still on, meaning that there were people working overtime.
She knew that the thing she had to do was to drive away.
But perhaps her sorrowful mood had weakened her resolve. Parking her car on the opposite side of the road, she got out of the car and stared up at the building. Pursing her lips together, she walked in.
She had no idea why she was in the office building, and neither did she know what she was going to say to Shi Jinyan in a moment’s time.
But after traveling aimlessly for so long, she knew she had a burning desire to see him again.
The elevator brought her to the sixth floor.
She stepped out of the elevator, but suddenly stopped in her tracks as a wave of anxiety hit her.
Pressing her lips together, she then strode on, listening to the chatter going on in the office. It was evident that the employees were still hard at work.
As she stood by the entrance and hesitantly peered inside, the lady at the front desk quickly stood up.
Si Jingyu could not recognize the employee — the lady was no longer the one she remembered.
So, at the sight of Si Jingyu, the lady simply asked cheerfully, “Hi, Miss. May I know who you’re looking for?”
Who was she looking for?
She pursed her lips and hesitated for a moment before replying, “I’m looking for Shi Jinyan.”
The front desk operator immediately pressed her lips together. It was a few moments before she asked, “Do you have a prior appointment with him?”
Si Jingyu shook her head. “No.”
“Well, in that case, I’m sorry. If you want to meet Mr. Shi, you have to make an appointment with him first.”
Si Jingyu furrowed her brows.
Pursing her lips once more, she stayed silent.
Now that the front desk lady didn’t recognize her, should she call him? Or was she to turn around and leave?
After a moment’s thought, she decided that it was best to leave. But just as she was about to do so, she heard the front desk lady suddenly pipe up in a courteous voice, “Mr. Shi.”
Mr. Shi?
Si Jingyu froze, and she suddenly felt someone’s gaze resting on her.
She balled her fists, not daring to turn around as she heard the sound of footsteps approaching her.
She lowered her head and paused for a moment before deciding to continue on her way out of the office. But just as she was about to do so, the footsteps behind her quickened, and she felt someone grabbing her by the wrist. A familiar voice, low and characteristically cold but tinged with a little excitement, rang in her ear. “Jingyu!”
Si Jingyu’s whole body tensed up.
All of a sudden, she wanted to leave.
What was she doing here?
Before she could do anything further, the same voice said, “Are you here to look for me?”
Si Jingyu raised her brows upon hearing this.
How was it possible that she was here to look for him?
She was just…
“I happened to pass by, and I saw that the lights were still on, so I thought I’d come up and take a look.”
After steadily delivering what she had to say, she slowly turned around to meet the face that she had been longing to see.
He had gotten even thinner, and his eye bags had gotten even heavier. Si Jingyu couldn’t help but purse her lips.
He, on the other hand, greeted her with a faint smile. “What are you looking at?”
Si Jingyu felt that his smile was too piercing. Without much thought, she blurted out, “Well, I’m here to see when you’ll sign the divorce papers.”
