Chapter 183: I’ll Go Back Right Now
Lu Junhan and Qin Weiwei hated Wen Shuyue, and they might hire several stout men to kidnap her. They would knock her out when she went out of the elevator and take her away. This was what Qin Weiwei would do.
She wouldn’t hire a strange man to stalk Wen Shuyue. And the man had lost Wen Shuyue.
Wen Shuyue felt helpless and terrified. She wasn’t sure who wanted to harm her. Since that man was waiting for her in the parking lot, he must know where she lived.
Wen Shuyue’s imagination started to go wild. She forced herself to stop imagining and took her phone out of the bag. She called He Siming.
The top priority was to tell He Siming about this. Wen Baobao was at home, and Wen Shuyue was afraid that the crazy man would sneak into their home.
After Wen Shuyue dialed the number, she put the phone to her ear with trembling hands. After a long time, the phone was picked up. He Siming didn’t say anything. Wen Shuyue could vaguely hear chatting voices on the other end of the phone.
Wen Shuyue’s voice was hoarse from the screaming. She said, “Are you in a meeting?”
To show his respect to the speaker at the meeting, He Siming said in the lowest voice, “Yes.”
“Is it important?” After Wen Shuyue spoke, she wanted to slap herself. Did He Siming ever attend an insignificant meeting? She thought she was an idiot.
“Yes,” He Siming said gently with patience and affection. He was not annoyed.
However, Wen Shuyue didn’t care what tone he used, nor did she know if she had interrupted the meeting.
“I… I was followed by someone in the underground parking lot. That man chased after me until I got into my car. He even blocked my car. I think he might know about our address since he waited for me in the underground parking lot. I’m worried about Wen Baobao.”
Although Wen Baobao was taken care of by a maid at home, there might be some accidents. As a mother, Wen Shuyue could not rest assured.
After Wen Shuyue spoke, she received no response from He Siming. She realized that He Siming was having an important meeting.
“Forget it. Get back to your meeting. I’ll call the company now and ask for leave. I’ll go back to see Wen Baobao. Sorry for disturbing you.”
Wen Shuyue quickly gave herself an out. She was upset. After all, Wen Baobao was the child of her and He Siming. She was worried about him, while He Siming remained silent.
Just as she was about to hang up, Wen Shuyue heard He Siming firmly say that the meeting was adjourned.NôvelDrama.Org owns this.
He Siming went out of the meeting room, followed by the managers. He pressed the phone to his ear and said, “I’ve adjourned the meeting. I’ll go back home right now. Where are you?”
The managers who walked behind He Siming overheard the conversation. They couldn’t imagine that the workaholic would get out of a meeting and go back home for someone.
They weren’t sure if it was a woman. If yes, that was unusual. Everyone knew that only important people or matters could force He Siming out of the office.
He Siming waited for a while and found that there was no response. He looked at his phone and realized that Wen Shuyue had hung up.
He Siming knew that Wen Shuyue cared about Wen Baobao more than herself, so he asked his assistant to arrange a car for him. He had to go home after he stayed in the company for a short while.
He Siming was right. Wen Shuyue hung up the phone because she couldn’t wait to go back home. She didn’t want to drive into the underground parking lot, so she left her car on the road and took a cab back home.
The cab driver made a detour to earn more money. When Wen Shuyue found out, she scolded the driver. When she arrived at the building, it was ten minutes later.
Wen Shuyue tossed the money at the driver and ran to her building. When she waited for the elevator on the ground floor, she couldn’t help looking around.
Even though it was daytime, no one came in and out of the building. Everyone must have gone to work. The empty building flustered Wen Shuyue, who couldn’t help thinking of the man in the parking lot.
She was afraid that he hadn’t left. He might be combing the apartments to look for Wen Baobao.
Wen Shuyue had waited for a long time before the elevator arrived. The elevator door opened, and it was empty. She went inside and pressed her floor number.
The smooth metal door was about to close when a hand suddenly extended and grabbed the door.
Wen Shuyue’s heart stopped beating for a few minutes. When the metal door slowly opened again, Wen Shuyue automatically retreated to the corner of the elevator.
She quietly took out her phone and tried to speed dial her emergency contact.
Wen Shuyue suddenly thought of many things in that instant. Her father was sick and lay in the hospital. Her emergency contact was Mother Wen. She wasn’t sure if Mother Wen would pick up her phone, and she wondered if she would die in the elevator.
She was still young. If she died, it would be a pity. Wen Baobao was small, and she had just met He Siming. She hadn’t revenged on Lu Junhan and Qin Weiwei. Her new life had just begun.
She didn’t want to die like this.
When the elevator door opened completely, Wen Shuyue curled up in the corner and looked outside. She was pitiful like a flustered rabbit.
When she saw the man outside the elevator, her tense body instantly relaxed. She leaned against the corner of the elevator and slid down.
The man outside the door was tall and handsome in a suit. When he saw the look on Wei Shuyue’s face, he frowned.
“What’s the matter?” There was concern and tenderness in his cold voice.
He Siming entered the elevator and squatted. He looked at Wen Shuyue who had been scared out of her wits and wiped off her tears with his rough thumb.
“I… I thought the man in the underground parking had come up. I…”
Wen Shuyue said in a sobbing voice and looked up at He Siming helplessly.
He Siming looked at the desperate and flustered woman in front of him and pitied her. He couldn’t help reaching out to pull her delicate body into his arms.
