Chapter 28 Make Her Unable to Live Without Me
âIâll send you there, Ah Ting!â
âI can drive there myself! â As an independent woman, Shen Manting didnât like to rely on others for everything, let alone for trivial matters like driving.
After Shen Manting drove away, the smile on Xue Chenkongâs face slowly disappeared. His expression became cold, and his eyes became empty. He went to the study and sat by the window, looking out at the sea. Without Shen Manting, he felt that there was no meaning in his life. She was his motivation to live on. If she wasnât around, he would wait for her to come back. Only when he was with Shen Manting would he feel like a normal person⦠An hour later, Ming He came to the Grand View Mansion with some documents. He knocked on the door of the study, but there was no response. He was very familiar with his boss and knew that he must be inside, thus pushed the door open and went in.
A man in indigo home clothes looking out of the window with empty eyes, like a soulless puppet, entered his view.
Ming He retracted his expression and handed the document over respectfully. âLin Liâs companyâs stock has been fallingâ¦â
After he heard his subordinateâs report, Xue Chenkongâs empty eyes finally showed some reaction. He looked at him expressionlessly. âForget it. Donât bother about him.â
Ming He was stunned. âForget it?â He had received a call and started to set up a plan, but now got an order to drop it.
Xue Chenkong lowered his eyes. His voice trembled slightly, weak and helpless. âDonât you think Iâm a failure? No matter what she asks, Iâd agree.â How could he not know that she was being perfunctory? She was using gentle means to coax him to be obedient, but he just couldnât reject her. He was even addicted to her gentleness.
Ming He opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but he didnât know what to say. He had seen his boss decide the fate of a listed company with one sentence, but he had never seen him so helpless and depressed.
To the CEO, his wife was a weakness.
Ming He was silent for a moment. âIt is is all because you love the madam. Besides, the madam is your wife. Itâs only right for you to dote on her and listen to her. You donât have to worry.â
âReally? â Xue Chenkong turned to look at Ming He. The haze in his eyes gradually dissipated, and then he seemed to have come to a sudden realization. âYes, she is my wife. I should treat her like this so that she will never leave me again.â
Ming He looked at the boss who was so happy because of one sentence that he looked like a little fool. He couldnât help but sigh. Love could make people crazy. As Xue Chenkongâs personal assistant and also the companyâs representative on the surface, he knew better than anyone else how outstanding Xue Chenkong was. In the eyes of others, Xue Chenkong was an autistic person. However, in his eyes, Xue Chenkong was a financial genius. He could control the financial lifeline of a city without even leaving the house. However, he was also the man who could live and die because of a word from his lover.
While Ming He was in a daze, Xue Chenkong suddenly asked with a serious expression, âMing He, do you know how to make a woman unable to leave me?â
Her thoughts changed so quickly that Ming He could not react in time. âI-Iâm still singleâ¦â
Hearing that, Xue Chenkong showed a face full of disdain. âI have no more business with you. You can get lost!â
Ming He was dumbfounded. When there was a problem, Xue Chenkong called him by his name. Otherwise, Xue Chenkong told him you to get lost. His heart felt incredibly stifled.
As soon as Ming He left, Mr. Yuan received a call from Shen Manting. When he heard the young lady asking if Xue Chenkong was home, Mr. Yuan quickly said, âYes, yes, heâs here. â It was the first time the young lady had taken the initiative to call and ask for Xue Chenkong. Mr. Yuan shouted toward the second floor, âMr. Chenkong, the young lady is looking for you.â
When Xue Chenkong heard that, he quickly ran toward the living room. âAh Ting, you were looking for me?â
The manâs voice was filled with surprise.
On the other end of the line, Shen Manting was standing in the hospitalâs fire escape. She bit her lip and said, âChenkong, I have something to discuss with you. Itâs fine if you donât want to go.â
âWhere do you want me to go, Ah Ting?â Xue Chenkong asked.
âItâs because weâre married. My colleagues want me to treat everyone to a meal to celebrate. They hope you can come, âShen Manting finally mustered up her courage and said. She felt nervous after she finished speaking
The thing Xue Chenkong hated the most was going out to socialize because he would feel uncomfortable in a crowded place.
More than an hour ago, as soon as Shen Manting entered the hospital, she saw Qj Jingwan, who was also waiting for the elevator.
Qi Jingwan was instantly fired up. âLook who this is. Dr. Shen, you look radiant today. Youâre back at work again. How dedicated.â
Ding Rou, who was standing behind Qi Jingwan, also said in a strange tone, âDr. Shen, youâre so amazing. Not only are you a doctor in our hospital, but youâre also a shareholder who invested in the hospital. It wouldnât be too much to call you the hospital director.â
