He disappeared!

The personnel manager laughed out loud, "It seems like your boyfriend is not our company's new boss. As for Director Pei, he wasn't our boss half a month ago. "

Xia Zhi's heart was once again hit hard by the cruel reality. Her body swayed and she was barely able to stand anymore. She weakly leaned on the wall beside the elevator and asked: "Really? In just two to three months, our company has changed bosses twice. "What's going on?"

Xia Zhi waved her hands powerlessly, and after sending the personnel manager off, she turned around and walked towards the safety exit.

Although the HR manager had told her that the company had changed hands, she would not be satisfied until she had seen the truth for herself.

However, she didn't dare to take the elevator anymore. She was afraid that she would meet her colleagues from the past again. She no longer had the strength to deal with their explosive curiosity …

She climbed up the stairs, layer by layer. By the time she was halfway up, she was sweating profusely, her legs were trembling, and her stomach was hurting slightly.

She knew that if she continued like this, her body might not be able to handle it.

However, he was unable to control his climbing pace …

When she finally made it to the top floor, she was so tired that she sat down at the foot of the stairs and rested against the wall for a long time.

When he felt a bit of strength in his body, Xia Zhi held onto the wall and slowly stood up.

Pushing open the door to the corridor, she entered the corridor covered with a thick red carpet.

Very quickly, she was standing in front of the door to Pei Yaochen's office.

The door was ajar and quiet, as if no one was inside.

Xia Zhi's heart was beating really fast. She felt that this was a door to life and death, and outside the door were the two heavens of life and death.

She did not dare to easily push it away, afraid that the truth behind it would be something she could not accept.

She wondered if she had made a mistake.

Was it because Pei Yaochen had bad memories about that place that he had sold the villa secretly and bought a new house?

And perhaps the encounter with the HR manager had been an illusion from her grief?

It must be! It must be!

She and Pei Yaochen had experienced so much, even if he felt that she was carrying too much burden right now and couldn't bear it, if he decided to break up with her, he would probably come over himself and tell her about it.

But if he really loved her, he should understand her. If he was determined to give up, she, Xia Zhi, would definitely not give up her pride to keep him here.

Thinking of that, Xia Zhi's panicked heart suddenly calmed down.

She took a deep breath, reached for the door handle and gave it a gentle push.

The door opened and sure enough, there was no one inside.

However, there was the sound of water splashing in the bathroom.

Is he taking a bath?

Xia Zhi hesitated for a moment, but in the end, she raised her foot and walked towards the bathroom.

The bathroom door was also ajar, and wisps of hot air were emitted from the gap between the door and door.

Still, she gently pushed the door open. When an image of a man and a woman's bodies intertwined, her mind buzzed. Without thinking, she grabbed a broom in the corner and rushed towards the passionate couple.

Screams and angry curses sounded out. When Xia Zhi saw the couple's face clearly, she was stunned for a moment. Then, she threw her broom on the ground helplessly and ran out crazily.

"Hey!" Stop! Who the hell are you? "Who went up to your floor!" The man was on the verge of running out.

The woman hurriedly pulled him back, reminding him in a low voice, "Director Jiang, you're still not wearing your clothes …"

The man was stunned for a moment. He pulled a towel over his body and wrapped it around himself. Then, he turned around and walked out quickly.

It was just that when they chased to the outside, they had already lost sight of Xia Zhi's back.

When Xia Zhi sat down on the stairs, she was still trembling with excitement.

Her head hurt so much that she couldn't clear her mind.

He sat in a daze for a long time before his consciousness returned to his brain.

Pei Yaochen sold his villa and his company, then disappeared without a trace.

There wasn't even a greeting.

Not to mention giving a reason.

The only thing that could be explained was that he was tired of being her savior, and he hated having to spend so much money and hurt his head because she had had to deal with so many difficult situations over and over again.

However, he had clearly just said he loved her, and she could clearly remember the warm, ambiguous breath that sprayed from his mouth and nose as he said this, gently coiling around her neck.

And how could he give up so suddenly when she had just forgotten the pain he had once given her and accepted him, ready to spend the rest of her life with him?

She could not accept this! He couldn't accept it!

In her impression, he was not such an irresponsible person!

When he didn't want her back then, he had cruelly and bluntly told her that they had no future, and that she was not allowed to have children!

However, there was such a huge contradiction between the past and the present. The reality laid right in front of her, and she had no choice but to believe it!

Xia Zhi painfully grabbed her hair, and the tears that she had suppressed for a long time finally fell uncontrollably …

She didn't know how long Xia Zhi sat at the foot of the stairs, she only knew that by the time she dragged her heavy body back home, the sky had already turned dark.

She did not turn on the light nor did she take off her shoes. She walked straight into the bedroom and collapsed on the bed. She pulled the blanket over her from head to toe.

She thought that she must be having a very, very cruel and terrifying dream right now. Even though she was in great pain and she was breaking down, as long as she woke up from the dream, the reality told her that Pei Yaochen was still deeply in love with her.

Maybe because she was too sad and tired, she closed her eyes for a while before falling into a deep sleep.

When he woke up again, it was already morning of the second day.

The room was already bright and warm in the golden morning light. Fresh air with the fragrance of flowers was being carried in by the warm spring wind through the open window. There were also little birds flying outside the window, occasionally chirping in a melodious melody.

It was such a good morning, and it was as beautiful as usual. Then what about her Pei Yaochen?

Would she, as she had so many mornings before, quietly push open the door and run to the kitchen to wash her hands and make the broth?

Xia Zhi blinked her eyes. She was yearning for the scene in her imagination, but she was also afraid.

After lying in bed for a long time, he finally mustered his courage and forced himself to get up.

When she reached the door, she stopped, looked down at her crumpled clothes, and hurried back to the closet. She picked out a carefully chosen pink dress and held it in her hand.

When he brought it back, he told her that he had designed it for her, that he had sewn it with his own hands, and that every year after that he would give her a dress he had designed himself.

He had looked at her with such eagerness in his eyes that he had told her clearly how much he wanted to see her put it on.

But his eyes and his words were too sweet, and she was a little flattered, so she purposely avoided the color, saying that her mind was mature and it was very difficult to get a feel for it, so she kept it in the closet and refused to put it on.

But today she wanted to put it on and stand in front of him.

She wanted him to take a good look at her. In reality, she really cared about what he had done for her. She hadn't said it before, but she was just too reserved.

She was not a person who was very good at expressing her feelings.

But from now on, she would completely change this part of herself. She would clearly show it to the world, proclaiming that she truly loved him … …

As if grabbing onto his own future, Xia Zhi held onto her clothes tightly and ran into the bathroom.

After washing up, she dressed herself up and walked out.

Opening the door, her eyes scanned the surroundings, but she did not see his familiar back.

But she was not discouraged by this, for she thought he must be in the kitchen by now, with his sleeves rolled up.

Her heart pounded at the thought, as if for the first time she had seen him turn to face her.

She took a deep breath and started toward the kitchen.

Every inch closer, her heartbeat quickened.

When he finally arrived at the kitchen, and saw that the kitchen was empty without a trace of him, Xia Zhi staggered a bit, feeling a pain so intense that he almost suffocated.

She had no choice but to use all her strength to hold onto her chest and slowly squat down. Grief gushed out like a flood, engulfing her mercilessly …

After an unknown amount of time, she forced herself to slowly get up from the cold ground and walk into the kitchen. She washed the rice, put the pot in the fire and stewed it, then opened the refrigerator. She took out a piece of meat, a packet of cowpeas and a few green peppers, and placed them on the chopping block to chop them into pieces.

As she did this, her face remained expressionless, her mind was empty, and she was operating mechanically like a robot.

When she took the hot porridge and ate it with the minced meat and cowpeas, the tears in her eyes suddenly fell into the bowl with a "patter patter" …

After finishing her meal, she finally calmed down. She put away her bowl and chopsticks, cleaned up the kitchen, and finally figured out what she was going to do next.
