My CEO Husband Has Some Issues - Chapter 603
Chapter 603: Chapter 603: It’s Right to Show Weakness First
Those eyes could express happiness, sadness, shyness, stubbornness… Only her eyes were so vivid and bright!
Just at that moment,
the phone chimed.
A new message suddenly popped up in the conversation box.
[Li Shengxiao, you saw the call I made to you, didn’t you? You just didn’t want to pick up.]
— You saw the call I made to you, didn’t you? You just didn’t want to pick up.
He paused his breathing, and the tips of his fingers stalled as they brushed across the screen.
Another message followed closely.
[I know you’re angry, and I can tell even without you saying it. Are we in a cold war now? If so, this would be our first since we started dating.]
The words “cold war” made Li Shengxiao narrow his eyes.
Rong Yan’s message came again, [I’ve never given someone the cold shoulder before, and I don’t know what to do at this time to not make you angry. But I really don’t want you to be mad. This time, I was thoughtless; I failed to consider that you would worry about me. I’m sorry.]
Li Shengxiao stared at the three words “I’m sorry” she sent, unable to move his gaze away for a long time.
[I won’t do it again in the future. If anything similar happens, I’ll discuss it with you first. You are my boyfriend, and yet I didn’t do what a girlfriend should. Can you give me another chance? I promise, I will learn how to be a good girlfriend.]
She was going to learn how to be a girlfriend…
The words “girlfriend” were like preserved sweets; his stomach was burning with fire, yet that piece of candied fruit still soothed his heart.
[Li Shengxiao, please don’t be mad at me anymore. You haven’t been replying to my messages or answering calls, and I’m really worried about you. Without seeing you return, I can’t even sleep. But I’m so sleepy; I’ve been tired and sleepy all day, and I really, really want to sleep… When will you be back?]
[Tonight, I took Little Baby to eat spicy and sour noodles at that restaurant. I don’t know if you’ve had dinner, but I made fish slice porridge for you. Not knowing when you’d return, I didn’t add the fish slices, afraid they would be overcooked by the time you got back. I’m waiting to add them when you come back; can you send me a message before you return, so I can start cooking in advance? That way, you can enjoy a freshly made fish slice porridge as soon as you get back.]
Her lengthy messages, accompanied by cute emoticons, were sent one after the other, almost as if she had “I’m sorry” written all over her face.
[Oh, by the way, do you like eel?]
[I didn’t know which type of fish you liked, so I bought eel. I really like it because it’s boneless. I just don’t know if you do too. If not, I can go to the nearby mall to see if it’s still open and get a different type of fish for you.]
Shen Siyuan could hear the persistent beeping from Li Shengxiao’s phone, as if messages were continuously coming in. She was dying to lean over and see who was messaging him.
But in front of this man, she dared not be too presumptuous.
After more than ten beeps, there was quiet for two minutes, and her expression slightly softened.
She then heard the dignified man’s phone ring again.
[Li Shengxiao, I am waiting for you to come back, will you please come home? The air conditioner in the living room seems to be broken, and it’s freezing cold; I think I’m going to catch a cold.]
The man who hadn’t replied a word from the beginning at that moment pulled out the IV needle from the back of his hand and looked up to instruct Gu Ming, “Prepare the car!”
