Chapter 342: Reluctantly Giving Up

In the dead of night, the whole world seems to fall into a deep sleep. After finishing all the work, Ji Xiuyu dragged his heavy steps back home. He rubbed his temples with a headache and a visibly tired look on his face.

When he walked into the house, the house was still lit as usual, waiting for him to come back. Ji Xiuyu changed his shoes and walked upstairs with heavy steps. It was already ten o'clock in the evening, and although I came back very late, it was better than the previous days, when I was so busy that I didn't have time to come back.

Walking into the bedroom, Ji Xiuyu was just about to untie his tie, when a familiar voice came: "Xiuyu, you're back." ”

Looking in the direction of the voice, Ji Xiuyu's eyes were full of surprise: "It's so late, why haven't you slept yet?"

Sitting up, Xia Xizhi sat at the head of the bed and replied with a smile: "I couldn't sleep, I heard a sound downstairs, so I got up." Xiu Yu, are you busy with work?"

Seeing that she was obviously very sleepy, but she didn't sleep, Ji Xiuyu's heart felt a pity. Coming to her side and holding her hand, Ji Xiuyu said in a low voice: "You are pregnant, and you don't know how to take care of yourself." ”

With a smile on his lips, Xia Xizhi coquettishly took his hand: "I miss you." Knowing you're busy, I don't dare to disturb you. I want to see you come back, so I can only wait here. ”

Listening to her words, Ji Xiuyu frowned: "These days, have you been waiting at home so late?"

Scratching his head embarrassedly, Xia Xizhi replied a little shyly: "Yes, I go to bed late." By the way, what's going on with the company?"

Holding her hand tightly, Ji Xiuyu hummed: "It's almost done, don't worry." ”

Seeing him say this, his hanging heart was finally able to let go. These days, she has been trying to contact him, but she is afraid of being reprimanded, so she can only wait here obediently.

She has obvious dark circles on her face, and she has only been a few days, but she has lost a lot of weight. Thinking that her emaciation was related to herself, Ji Xiuyu felt guilty in her heart: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry." I lost my temper with you the other day because of a series of things. I'm sorry to make you sad, right?"

Putting his hand on his cheek, Xia Xizhi shook his head and replied with a smile: "It's okay, I don't care." I know you're in a bad mood at the time, and it wasn't intentional. So, I'm not angry. Even if I'm angry, I'm angry with myself. It's useless to be angry with myself, and I can't help you solve the problem. ”

Seeing that she understood herself so well, Ji Xiuyu's heart felt even more guilty. These days, he only cares about dealing with the company's affairs, but ignores Xia Xizhi's feelings. After all, she is a pregnant woman and needs her husband's care and affection.

As if to see his thoughts, Xia Xizhi said with a chuckle: "Okay, don't think about it so much." I'm tired from a busy day, so go take a shower. We'll talk about the rest in a moment, okay?"

Looking at his gaze, Ji Xiuyu nodded: "Okay." With that, a soft kiss dropped on her forehead, then got up and walked to the bathroom.

Seeing his figure leave, Xia Xizhi finally smiled. She was also relieved to see that he had finally returned home. Lying on the bed looking at the ceiling, she had a smile on her face.

Ji Xiuyu took a bath, and when he walked out of the bathroom, he saw Xia Xizhi still lying on the bed, looking at him with his eyes open. came to her side and lay down, Ji Xiuyu said in a low voice: "Why don't you sleep yet?"

"It's rare for you to come home, and of course I want to take a good look at you. Xia Xizhi replied with a smile like a flower.

Lying on her side, her hands resting on her round belly. "Is the baby okay?" Ji Xiuyu asked with concern.

Speaking of the child, the smile on Xia Xizhi's face deepened. Filled with happiness, he said happily: "Of course, I've been naughty lately, and you can kick me at every turn." When he is born, I must teach him a good lesson. ”

Hearing this, Ji Xiuyu replied jokingly: "Yes, who made him toss you so much now." My wife has worked hard, and I know that the older the month, the harder you work. As a man, I can't share your hardships, but I can't even accompany you. ”

Seeing that he was still blaming himself, Xia Xizhi said seriously: "Xiuyu, I don't blame you, really." I know very well what is most important in what period. I know how important Zhongkai Group is to you, like you said, it's like your child. Now that it's sick, of course you have to take good care of it. ”

Hold her hand and put it to her lips and kiss it softly. With tenderness flashing in his eyes, he said softly, "Well, thank you for your understanding." ”

With a warm smile on his face, Xia Xizhi stared at him with a smile, as if he wanted to make up for what he had lacked during this time. "Hasn't there been any progress in the bribery lawsuit?" Xia Xizhi asked simply.

Speaking of this, Ji Xiuyu's brows furrowed, and he said solemnly: "Not yet, I asked people to investigate the person who remitted to Manager Yang's account, but there has been no progress." ”

"I learned that the money was remitted to Manager Yang in the name of gambling. If we want to know who that person is, we can go to that casino to investigate and monitor and find out who gambled with Manager Yang. As long as you can catch that person, you can follow the vine. Xia Xizhi said so.

Looking at him in surprise, Ji Xiuyu asked puzzledly, "How do you know this?"

Laughing heavily, Xia Xizhi replied embarrassedly: "I went to see Manager Yang today, and then through some methods, coerced him to tell this matter." I believe in the reliability of this matter, so you might as well send someone to investigate. You have more connections than I do, so you should be able to investigate better than I do. ”

Listening to her words, Ji Xiuyu nodded and said gratefully, "Thank you." Who said you can't help me, you've helped me a lot. Having this clue will help you find that person faster. ”

"I'm happy to be able to help you. After all, I am your wife, and I want to face the storm with you. Xia Xizhi looked at him intently and said.

With his head resting on hers, Ji Xiuyu closed his eyes and felt his breath. Xia Xizhi didn't speak, just looked at him quietly. At this moment, the world is silent.

Maybe it was his breath, Xia Xizhi quickly fell asleep. Listening to the sound of even breathing, Ji Xiuyu opened his eyes. Looking at the beautiful woman in front of him, there was affection in his eyes. It's just that he also has worries in his heart.

These things kept coming at him, and he had a premonition that something else was about to happen. Once one day, he can't solve these things, what should Xia Xizhi do. He loves her and doesn't want her to suffer with him, but he is reluctant to give up on her.

Dropping a kiss on her eyes, Ji Xiuyu said hoarsely: "No matter what, I will do my best to give you happiness." ”
