She had just had lunch, how could she still eat.
But she didnât want him to see any flaws.
So she said, âHa... you know, in our line of work, the most important thing is the body. We donât dare to eat too much.â
After listening, Zhong Shenghao seemed to understand. He smiled and didnât say anything else.
After lunch, it was time for him to return to the hospital. There was a surgery in the afternoon that he had to perform personally.
âIâm going back.â
âIâm going too!âXiao ran said.
Zhong Shenghao turned to look at her. âArenât you going back to work?â
âThe show in the morning is over. If thereâs nothing else, my time is free.â
He looked at her and didnât say anything.
âIt just so happens that I havenât been to your hospital for a long time. I want to go and observe, okay?âThere was a hint of anticipation in her eyes.
Zhong Shenghao pondered for a few seconds. âOkay.â
As he spoke, he walked to his car and opened the door. Xiao ran naturally opened the passenger door.
After fastening his seatbelt, Zhong Shenghao was still a little worried about Jing xinlei. He took out his phone and called her.
It was finally connected!
Looking at the familiar name on the phone, Jing Xinlei hesitated for a long time before picking it up.
She swiped the answer button and brought the phone to her ear, but she didnât say anything. Instead, she waited for Zhong Shenghao to speak.
âXinlei?â
âYes.â
âYou went back?â
âYes.â
In the front passenger seat, Xiao Ran, who was on the phone with her, couldnât help but feel nervous. She stared at him, afraid that she would give herself away.
âAre You Home?â
âNot yet.â
He pursed his lips slightly. âCall me when youâre home.â
Jing Xinlei didnât answer him. Instead, she fell into silence.
After a while, she couldnât help but ask, âWere you having dinner with Xiao ran just now?â
He raised his eyebrows. âYes. How did you know?â
âNothing.âAfter she said that, she suddenly hung up the phone.
Looking at the phone that was suddenly hung up, Zhong Shenghao was a little puzzled.
âWhatâs Wrong?âSeeing his slightly stunned expression, Xiao ran couldnât help but ask.
Zhong Shenghao turned his head and calmly glanced at her.
âNothing.â
Putting away the phone, he started the car and left.
Jing xinlei, who had returned home, walked to the entrance to change her shoes and then walked into the living room.
The empty living room was as usual, but today, she felt a little quiet as if something was missing.
âMiss, youâre back.â
The Butler walked out and smiled at her respectfully.
âOkay.âShe nodded and walked past the butler to the second floor.
âMiss, lunch is ready. Arenât you going to eat first before going up?â
Hearing the housekeeperâs voice, Jing Xinlei stopped walking upstairs and turned to look at the housekeeper. âIâve already eaten.â
The housekeeper was stunned.
âYouâve Eaten?â
She nodded. âYes.â
âThatâs strange. Young master also said to prepare lunch before you get home so that you can directly eat when you come back.âThe housekeeper lowered her eyebrows, somewhat puzzled.
The young master had just called half an hour ago. Judging from his tone, it was probably because Miss Jing had not eaten lunch that she was in a hurry to let them prepare it.
âDid he tell you to do that?â
âYes!âThe housekeeper looked up at her, unable to understand the reason behind it.
Jing xinlei lowered her gaze and pondered for a few seconds before looking up at the housekeeper. âIâve already eaten. Clean those up.â
The housekeeper nodded at her. âOkay.â
After saying that, the housekeeper turned around and left, walking towards the kitchen. She turned around and walked up to the second floor as well, returning to her room.
