Downstairs, when Su Zhinian brewed himself a cup of coffee, he considered whether he should make her a cup of brown sugar water or not. However, when he reached for the cup, he put it back.
Forget it, it's better to treat her less openly.
Su Zhinian returned to his study, but he was unable to focus on his work. In the end, he closed his computer and stared out the window for a long time. Then, he pulled out his phone to order a delivery at 6: 30 pm.
Normally, Song Qingchun would go downstairs to prepare dinner at 6 pm, but that day, she was not feeling well, so she stayed in bed until 6: 30 pm.
When she reached the kitchen door, the doorbell rang. Song Qingchun stopped and turned to walk toward the front door.
Through the peephole, she saw it was a delivery man. Song Qingchun ordered the delivery man to leave it at the door, and after the man left, she opened the door to pick it up. It was a delivery, and it was from Golden Corner. There was a note on it, listing all of her favorites.
There was only her and Su Zhinian at home, so if she did not order the delivery, it had to be him.
She had always been the one to prepare dinner, so why did he order delivery today?
Is it because he was uncomfortable with me that afternoon?
If this was before, Song Qingchun would have felt warmth in her heart, but now she felt an indescribable sense of disappointment.
Song Qingchun placed the food on the plates in the dining room before going upstairs to call Su Zhinian for dinner.
The door to the study was open, so she stood at the door. Like usual, she was going to knock on the door and say, "Mr. Su, it's time for dinner" before turning to go downstairs. However, before her hand reached the door, she heard Su Zhinian's cold voice drifting out from within.
"Tomorrow? I'm afraid I can't tomorrow … I know about the SR project. We've been following up on it for half a year, and now they finally have the intention to cooperate. It's not easy, but I have something more important to do tomorrow, so I won't be able to go to the company … Oh well, if it's over, then so be it. If there's nothing else, I'm going to hang up now … "
Just as Su Zhinian hung up, the phone in his study rang. He picked it up quickly, and it was unclear what the person on the other end of the line was talking about, but he replied in an annoyed tone, "Didn't I say tomorrow's meeting will be canceled? I'll put it off until later … If I don't go to the company, can't you guys handle these things? Did I spend so much money to hire all of you to be decorations? "
Then, Song Qingchun heard the sound of the landline being slammed down hard.
The study finally quieted down. Song Qingchun stood at the door for a long time before raising her hand to knock lightly on the door.
"Come in."
Song Qingchun pushed the door open and glanced at the study table out of habit. Su Zhinian was not there. She turned her gaze around and saw him standing motionlessly before the window, looking out at the dark sky. It was hard to tell what he was thinking.
Song Qingchun didn't go in but said softly, "The takeaway is here."
Su Zhinian did not turn around and did not reply.
Just as Song Qingchun was about to turn to leave, Su Zhinian's phone rang again. He raised his hand to look at the caller ID. After a long hesitation, he answered it and called out a familiar name. "Tang Nuo."
