But even after she quietly wrote those words, Jin Di looked like he was still asleep. She sighed lightly and did not do anything else.
Letting nature take its course was her favorite way of doing things. Which was why today, when he appeared in front of her, she'd acted like nothing had happened.
Actually...once she calmed down and thought about how she'd slapped him that day, she also felt that she'd been too impulsive.
She did not ask him anything, nor did she hear him say a single word.
Jin Di was indeed not the kind of person who would explain things to others.
However, he had already helped her so much. There were too many people like Lin Huiyue and Zuo Yunyun in her life. Was she just so used to second-guessing the intentions of the people around her that she was being unfair on Jin Di?
She thought that she was smart, but she always got muddled up at the most critical moment. It seemed to her that nobody in the world had her best interests at heart.
She thought to herself and sighed softly. The man's arm was still around her waist. She reached out and touched his muscular arm.
And then, gently, wrapped it around herself.
Jin Di, Jin Di...what kind of man was he really?
---
She didn't think that she would actually fall asleep. But before she knew it, she was waking up to Lei Xiaoxiao sitting at the end of her hospital scrolling through her phone.
Jin Di had disappeared without a trace, and everything in the ward was exactly the same as it had been before he came.
She felt a bit lost and confused, but couldn't say anything to Lei Xiaoxiao.
"Ah, the resentful face of a woman who has just woken up," Lei Xiaoxiao said. Zuo Aiai had no idea how long she'd been there.
Zuo Aiai's face immediately turned red. She frowned and glared at Lei Xiaoxiao. "What are you talking about?!"
She tried to use her mouth to form these words.
"Stop pretending. What exactly is going on with that Jin Di? Don't think that I don't know. I've been sitting here pondering for the whole afternoon. That man asked me to go to the edge of the city for a jade pendant for no reason. When I came back, I wanted to give it to him, but he was already gone! If this isn't luring the tiger away from the mountain, I don't know what is. Tell me quickly, what did he do to you after I left?"
"Is it..." Lei Xiaoxiao smiled mischievously and reached out to touch Zuo Aiai's chest.
Zuo Aiai reached out and knocked her hand away. She was so anxious that she wanted to explain, but she couldn't speak properly. She was really angry and annoyed!
"Alright, alright, I won't tease you anymore. Look at you! It's been a long time since I've seen your expression like this...Zuo Aiai, to be honest, if he really treats you sincerely, I actually think that he's a good date. Really."
Date?
She didn't say anything. Could she and Jin Di really be considered each other's dates?
"Forget it, I'm going to work. I'll leave that man's jade pendant with you. I'll wait for you to give it to him. He's your boyfriend anyway. I'm leaving!"
Lei Xiaoxiao said these words suddenly. She placed a warm, dark green, perforated jade pendant into Zuo Aiai's hand, then took her bag and left.
It seemed that things in Italy were still very troublesome, and Jin Di still went on that business trip in the end.
Danil called her to tell her this news. She had been in the hospital for five days, and it was the butler who picked her up on the day she was discharged.
After returning to the Sun House and resting for two days, her voice had almost recovered. The art exhibition was about to begin, and she was preparing to go to school to continue working.
When she was leaving, the butler whispered,
"Mr. Jin's flight to Binhai City is today. "
She remembered that she had not heard anything from her phone, and her eyes darkened. She only said lightly, "I know."
