Why was he acting like a pampered little girl? Did she have to ask him to come over?
Di Mingjue looked at Ye Ziyu on the bed with a wronged expression.
"Are you planning to stand there and guard me all night?" Ye Ziyu asked seriously.
His eyes flickered, and Di Mingjue's gaze fell on the empty space next to Ye Ziyu on the bed.
Fine, was she going to play games with him?
Pushing the quilt up, Ye Ziyu lay down directly, leaving Di Mingjue to stand wherever he pleased.
The situation in front of him was nothing like Di Mingjue had imagined. Why did she lie down after saying just one sentence? Should he go over, or should he keep standing there?
After some thought, Di Mingjue turned and left the room.
Hearing the door close, Ye Ziyu glanced towards the doorway.
Was he not planning to sleep tonight?
Too tired, Ye Ziyu didn't want to go out and see what he was doing, so she lay back down.
Standing in the hallway, Di Mingjue waited for a long time, but Ye Ziyu didn't come out to find him.
Bad! He had miscalculated again.
The Ye family was asleep. Di Mingjue stood alone in the hallway for a long time, unable to bear it any longer, and turned back into the room.
Only a dim night light was left on in the room, and Ye Ziyu's peaceful breathing echoed within.
Di Mingjue touched his body. Standing for so long had left him feeling cold all over. If he went in like this, he would chill Ye Ziyu. He looked at the bathroom, but going in to shower would create water noise, which would also disturb her. Just as he was pondering his options, Ye Ziyu woke up.
"Quickly turn off the light and sleep!"
She had already slept for a while, and he was still standing there stubbornly.
After all this fuss, all he needed was this one sentence.
"Okay."
As soon as he said it, Di Mingjue scrambled onto the bed like a monkey and lay down.
"It's so cold, move away from me, don't touch me!"
Di Mingjue tossed and turned, forcefully hugging Ye Ziyu. The bed frame creaked, accompanied by Ye Ziyu's resistant cries.
...
"We have external work today."
"Where to?"
Ye Chenhan had just come out of Ye Shaoting's office. The external assignment was arranged by Ye Shaoting, and it required him to go with Ye Ziyu.
"Haishi." He almost forgot.
Ye Ziyu had heard of it but had never been there. She had initially thought the assignment was within Sijiucheng.
"Then do we need to pack our luggage?" Ye Ziyu asked.
Since there was an external work arrangement, she really didn't understand why Ye Shaoting hadn't mentioned it during breakfast. If he had, they wouldn't need to come to the company; they could have packed their luggage at home and set off.
Ye Chenhan nodded and picked up his coat from the side, "Brother said for us to go back now and head directly to the airport from home later."
Ye Shaoting had already arranged their flight tickets and accommodation in Haishi in advance, so they only needed to bring their personal necessities.
After leaving the office, before getting into the car, Ye Ziyu called Di Mingjue.
"Ziyu, get in the car!"
The call didn't connect. Ye Chenhan was urging her again, so Ye Ziyu had to put away her phone and planned to call again before boarding.
She packed her personal belongings in ten minutes. They rushed back to the Ye family home and then hurried to the airport. The flight time arranged by Ye Shaoting was too tight, leaving no room for delay.
Upon arriving at the airport, Ye Chenhan carried the luggage from the trunk. He glanced at the flight time and listened to the announcements from the staff overhead.
"Ziyu, it's time for us to board."
Ye Ziyu was trying to call Di Mingjue, but for some reason, his phone was not connecting. She would have to turn off her phone after boarding, and calling him again would have to wait until after she landed.
Responding to Ye Chenhan, Ye Ziyu quickly typed a text message to Di Mingjue informing him of her business trip.
Haishi was located next to Sijiucheng, and the flight would take only three hours. Ye Ziyu took her suitcase and ticket from Ye Chenhan, and they proceeded to check in one after another.
