When he arrived at the imperial court, Ling Jiuze took off his suit jacket, raised his hand and loosened his tie, sat on the sofa, looking at the empty room, thinking that Su Xi was feeling pain and restless.

After a while, he suppressed his uneasy mood and turned to look at the second bedroom. He hoped that the door would open and Xi Bao would come out inside.

Even though he knew he would not, he walked towards the second bedroom by chance.

I opened the door and went in, turned on the lights, and everything familiar came into my eyes.

When she lived here before, he came over at night. She usually sat on the sofa on the balcony to read books. He would take off her books and kiss her deeply.

Ling Jiuze walked towards the balcony, sat on the sofa, and saw a note placed on it.

When Su Xi was away, he had been here many times and never saw a note.

So, was this what she left when she returned to Yuncheng that day?

Ling Jiuze opened the note, and his handsome fonts came into his eyes.

"Mr. Ling, good night!"

Ling Jiuze looked at the words on the paper and his heart surged, and his longing suddenly rose to the extreme.

He took out his cell phone and sent Su Xi a video invitation.

Seven seconds later, the video was connected, and Su Xi lay on the bed in the bedroom and smiled at Ling Jiuze, "Do you miss me?"

Ling Jiuze's eyebrows and eyes were gentle, "Are you going to bed?"

"No!" Su Xi held her chin with one hand, "Look at the book before sleeping."

"Is Grandpa's cough cured?"

"Well, it's much better!" Su Xi looked down at the words on the book and smiled, "Ling Jiuze, I'll read it to you!"

"Okay!" Ling Jiuze leaned on the sofa relaxedly, staring at the girl.

Under the dim lights, the girl's eyebrows and eyes were soft and clear. She was wearing light blue satin pajamas, her hair was scattered behind her, and it blended with the antique atmosphere in the room, making her heart feel as quiet as rain.

Su Xi turned a page of the book, and a gentle sound slowly rang in the quiet night, a crisp and clean sound like a pearl and jade falling from the plate.

Ling Jiuze leaned against the sofa, looking at her for a moment, listening to her voice, his uneasy mood was relieved, but his mood of thinking about her became stronger and stronger.

After a long time, Su Xi put down the book, her face felt sleepy, "Okay, let's just read here today, go to bed!"

Ling Jiuze nodded slowly, "When will you come back?"

Su Xi rubbed her eyes and said, "I'm so sleepy, I'm going to sleep."

Ling Jiuze felt sorry for her, "Okay, go to bed!"

"Good night!" Su Xi waved her hand, smiled at him, and turned off the video.

Ling Jiuze put down his cell phone and didn't move for a long time. He picked up the note written by Su Xi and read the words repeatedly.

Su Xi has been away for eight days. He may be able to go there this weekend. He is going to see his grandfather. This reason should be fine!

Ling Jiuze smiled, put down the sticky notes, got up and went to take a shower.

......

The next day

Early in the morning, Su Chuci saw Ling Jiuze in the office, with a little embarrassed face and lowered his head to report to him.

After Su Chuci finished his work, his eyes rolled and he whispered, "I have called my aunt and visited me on the weekend. But I don't know what Aunt Ling likes, so can I invite Mr. Ling to help me choose a gift at noon?"

Ling Jiuze looked up at her faintly, and suddenly asked, "Assistant Su, what was your original intention for coming to Ling?"

Su Chuci was stunned and immediately said, "Ling is a leader in all fields, and I hope to realize my personal value here."

This is what she said to the manager of the Human Resources Department when she interviewed Ling.

"What is your personal value?" Ling Jiuze continued to ask.

Su Chuci was stunned and did not speak out.

Ling Jiuze looked at her coldly, "Do you enjoy compliments at a place like a cocktail party, or please flatter in front of your boss?"
