Your Most Faithful Companion Chapter 32

 

Chapter 33

The sun outside the window was shining brightly. In the imperial capital in midsummer, the sun was scorching hot, and the air was dull and dry.

Sitting in the car, Ji Mingshu still covered her head with Cen Sen's suit jacket without saying a word.

Cen Sen ignored her and kept talking on the phone with his business partner.

After finally finishing the phone call about work, the phone at home came in again. He glanced at the caller ID, then at Ji Mingshu, and pressed the outgoing button.

"A Sen, did you hear from Xiao Shu?"

Ji Mingshu's ears instantly pricked up when she heard Grandma Cen's angry voice.

Cen Sen said, "Yeah."

"Got it."

"Then hurry, Mrs. Zhou cooked a big table today, and you can make whatever you want!" urged Grandma Cen on the other side.

Ji Mingshu popped out of his suit jacket in an instant, and she kept shaking her head at Cen Sen.

Cen Sen looked at her with flat eyes and didn't speak.

Ji Mingshu came to her wits' end out of haste, and rubbed against him again, tentatively thumping his shoulders and back.

After enjoying the scene for more than ten seconds, Cen Sen changed his hand to hold the phone and said, "Grandma, I have an impromptu meeting tonight, Xiao Shu is jet-lagged and a little tired, and fell asleep in the car ."

"Alright." Mrs. Cen understood very well, "Then you send Xiao Shu back to rest first, and come over for dinner next time."

"Okay."

Grandma Cen added, "Don't work too hard, pay more attention to your body."

Cen Sen replied, "Yes."

It wasn't until the phone was hung up that Ji Mingshu breathed a sigh of relief, and the movements of beating his shoulders and back also stopped, and she quickly sat back in her seat as if nothing had happened.

Cen Sen was probably used to her ruthlessness, so he didn't take it seriously. Ji Mingshu herself was a little cautious, she kept looking out the window and refused to turn her head.

But the more she looked at it, the more she felt that something was wrong -

no, this was the way back to Mingshui Mansion.

She came to her senses and turned her head to stare at Cen Sen, but Cen Sen had already folded his arms around his chest, leaned back in the chair, and closed his eyes to rest.

Cen Sen has been on a business trip for the past two days, and he just flew back to the Imperial Capital from Star City two hours ago. After getting off the airport expressway, he received a call from home, and only then did he know that Ji Mingshu was returning to China today.

He asked Zhou Jiaheng to check the flight time, but by coincidence, the flight back from Paris had just landed.

So he ordered the driver to turn around and go back to the airport, planning to pick up Ji Mingshu and go to Mingshui Mansion for dinner together.

He was originally sitting in the car and asked Zhou Jiaheng to pick her up. Unexpectedly, Zhou Jiaheng didn't pick up the call, but he called, and then he heard a little girl screaming on the other end of the phone: "Mr. Cen, your wife is trapped in the men's room and can't get out!"

Cen Sen subconsciously rubbed his forehead.

It was already dusk when we returned to Mingshui Mansion, Ji Mingshu wrapped his suit and walked in, never took off her sunglasses, and her lips were tightly pressed.

She walked quickly, and when she entered the house, she went all the way up to the bathroom to run water for a bath.

Hearing the sound of water, Cen Sen only looked up and continued changing his shoes.

When he went to the refrigerator to get water, there was another series of miserable screams     from upstairs, "Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!" 

Cen Sen heard the deep frustration and remorse of

"How could I do such a stupid thing?" 

"My fame in my life was ruined like this"

"Mother, kill me now."

He snorted lightly, and took another sip of water.

Cen Sen held a video conference downstairs, which took nearly two hours.

Seeing that there was no more noise from upstairs, Cen Sen went upstairs to take a look, only to find that Ji Mingshu was still in the bathroom.

He knocked outside, "Ji Mingshu?"

"Why."

"Do you have a problem with locking yourself inside the toilet?"

As soon as he finished speaking, the glass door was pushed open heavily.
