Chapter 373 Suspicions



***************

CHAPTER 373

Unknown to her, the sheer thought of Sun Yichen not backing down and wanting to leave her alone, made him wish to spend the whole day showering her with love upon love.

Even if he scared her with the time frame in which he wanted to make love to her, deep down he knew he wouldn't.

To Liu Xueyi, love was way more than sex and he intended to pamper her today to prove it too.

*****

With the vacation and Andromeda's absence, Peng Xiaoli had to take charge of things for her 

Having worked years with her, she understood what the latter for years, she knew how coordinated and well-arranged Andromeda loved her work.

Orders kept on coming and clothes were being made to meet their request.

While they were working, a knock came on Andromeda's door, pulling Peng Xiaoli and Jian Xiaofei's attention to it.

Peng Xiaoli lifted her head first to look at the door. 

"What do you think?" She heard Jian Xiaofei's voice from behind, breaking her from her train of thought.

"I don't know. From the looks of things, Ms. Andromeda wouldn't be coming in today. Perhaps she is still resting from her vacation."

"As she should. I am happy she is taking time to spend with the CEO," Jian Xiaofei exposed.

Immediately, Peng Xiaoli turned to face her, ignoring whoever was at the door.

"What? You can't obviously tell me you do not know she would be with the CEO currently. They love each other and everyone knows it."

"Yes, they do. It is great. After all, she suffered in the hands of that man, Wu Bai and his bitch, it is a good thing she found love again and..."

Knock! Knock!

"Yikes, I forgot someone was at the door." She turned her head to face the door and briskly walked over to unlock it.

Immediately the door was opened, she stood face to face with a handsome well-built young man with a smile that felt out of this world.

"Hello, good day to you." 

"Hello…" Peng Xiaoli's voice trailed off as her lips remained parted while staring wide-eyed. 

"Umm… Xiaoli? Who's there?" Jian Xiaofei inquired when she noticed the silence that had engulfed the latter. 

Still, Peng Xiaoli was unable to say a word. 

"Umm, please is this Ms. Kai's office? Andromeda Kai?"

"And who is asking?" Jian Xiaofei inquired from behind Peng Xiaoli as she tapped lightly on the girl's shoulder to get her attention.

Thanks to Jian Xiaofei's intervention, she quickly got herself back and tried to act professionally.

"Yes, my apologies for just now. Please may I know who is asking?"

He put on his smile and gave a nod. "Yes, my name is Xie Tian, her friend."

"Oh," Jian Xiaofei exclaimed. "Mr Xie. I recall. I have heard Ms. Kai mention your name before."

"Did she now?" He asked while lifting his brow.

"Yes. Huh, Ms. Kai is not in today."

"Did she step out by any means?"

"No. She did not come."

"Oh, why if I may ask?"

"I think it is best if you call her for that, Mr. Xie," Jian Xiaofei chipped in quickly. 

"Okay. Thank you. I understand. I will do that. Is the CEO in as well?"

"For that, I am not sure," Jia Xiaofei shook her head. 

"He is not. Neither of them is in," Peng Xiaoli explained with a smile. 

"Okay, it may have been a business meeting or something. Thank you both for your time. I will put a call through to her later in the day."

"It will be best," Peng Xiaoli nodded.

He bade them goodbye and excused himself. 

Once he was sure he had covered a long distance away from them, he took a pause and cast a side glance at the office once more. 

'Hmm, both of them are not in It can only mean she is with him at home. I am sure she has no meetings scheduled. I checked the schedule of Liu Xueyi before coming.' He noted inwardly. 

What he had failed to tell Jian Xiaofei was the fact that he had placed a call to Andromeda to get her attention but her phone was unreachable.

And the fact that they suggested he called her made him guess that they too had no idea where she was or what happened to her.

If both Liu Xueyi and Andromeda were not in at the same time, then something must have happened.

Picking his phone from his pocket, he dialled a number and placed the phone on his ear. 

"Hello?"

"Sir."

"Do a proper check for me on Andromeda's activities from last week till today."

"Yes sir."

"Call me once you forward everything to my email."

"Right on it, sir." 

He ended the call abruptly and made his way over to the elevator.

******

Bang!

Jian Xiaofei's lips dropped as she stared wide-eyed at the lady before her. 

This was the first time since she and Peng Xiaoli started working with Andromeda together to see her this smitten by a man—any man for that matter.

Understanding the meaning behind the stare Jain Xiaofei gave her, Peng Xiaoli blushed furiously. 

"You have got to be kidding me, right?" Jian Xiaofei asked.

"Hey, come on it was nothing."

"Oh, it is, for you to be smitten that way. Then it is something of concern. Wow, you are bashful," Jian Xiaofei bombarded her with questions, making her blush even more.

"Xiaofei, stop it."

"No," she stated firmly and placed both hands on her hips. "I'm going to tease the life out of you today."

"Then I shall leave the office for you. "

She did not give Jian Xiaofei the opportunity to contend with her when she turned on her heels ready to walk away. 

"And oh," she took a pause as a unique smile glistened in her eyes. "And then you need to make sure you finish the work."

"Enhhhh! Xiaoli! Wait a minute. Wait, you cannot leave me to do all the work."

'I just did. Bye."

Immediately Jian Xiaofei reacted and ran up to meet her and grabbed her arm. "Please big sis Xiaoli."

Peng Xiaoli lifted her brows at the naughty girl. She knew the right buttons to press having watched Andromeda do it many times.

"Fine, you win. I won't disturb you today."

"Promise?"

"I promise."

*******

The sound of heels clicking against the tiled floor echoed around the house as an angry lady marched her way to the living room.

With every step, she took the hearts of those who heard it into their throat while awaiting the thundering of an angry woman. 

In no time she arrived at her destination and glared daggers at the man seated on the couch. 

"You can sit still after everything that is going on?" Su Mei challenged.

Instead of yielding to her squirm and speaking back at her in the same angry tone, her husband turned his head to the side and picked up the television remote.

To her dismay he turned the television volume up, drowning out her voice.

Her lips fell open at the insult. Not only did he not acknowledge her as she had thought, but he also increased the volume."

"Sun Wu Jang!" Su Mei bellowed.

"Shout my name without respect one more time and you would know the reason why people fear me." 

She was taken aback by his reply, much so due to the fact that he looked extremely calm while dishing out those words to her.

"Wu…

"And before your filthy mouth opens to nag, did you have the courtesy or decency to greet your husband when you came in? Or did you rant and bark like a dog without proper training."

Veins popped at the side of her forehead and neck from the endless insults he threw at her but knowing her husband, it was better when he was hot-headed than to cross him when he was calm.

"No wonder Jingyi is the way he is. A mannerless, penguin no different from his mother."

He hissed and relaxed his back against the couch while keeping his gaze focused on the news he was tuning in on.

Unfortunately for Su Mei, she had met her husband in a fouler mood than she was but she had no idea. 

Just when he thought things would go well for his business, he lost a huge business deal because his entertainment company was just starting up. 

Without the backing of Liu Corporation, he knew it would be harder standing on his own two feet.

All he could think about was how his stupid son ruined his only opportunity to get Liu Xueyi on his side. 

Now he had to think of meeting with other industries and hope they would spare him a glance.

"Now if you do not have anything better to say, please kindly move aside and do not sully the air with your mood."

"Sun Wu Jang, no matter what I am your wife. Speak to me with respect," Su Mei demanded.

"Like the one you gave me?" His lips tugged downward, revealing his frown.

"No. I…"

"Save it. I would give you three minutes to tell me something worthy of my time. After that, I would ignore you so much you would hate me."

"It will," she spat bitterly. "It is about Andromeda Kai."
