The strongly suppressed urges came tumbling out along with all the pain and fear in his chest, Xue Ziang put down the glass of water, smiled extremely softly at her, and tried to calm himself down. “Zhao Yu, what happened that day, I can explain…”
“Who is Xu Miao?”
“I don’t know. She was doing just fine, then she suddenly collapsed when she was performing on stage. The ambulance hasn’t arrived yet. The doctor at the hotel came and said it was an allergy. But how can an allergic reaction be so severe? She looks like she can’t breathe, her face, her hands…it’s terrible, Mr. Xue, hurry up, I think she is in so much pain, her appearance is really scary, I’m so afraid she will…”

He couldn’t wait to see Zhao Yu. He was still looking forward to her coming to work. However, when he logged into the company system, he discovered that Zhao Yu had applied to resign since early morning yesterday.
She was resigning?

Ji Sui cocked his head, and Zhao Yu said, “I’m fine being dropped off at the Galaxy Hotel, that way you don’t have to take a detour to send me back.”
“You’re not going back?”
Zhao Yu forced a smile. “He’s probably waiting at my door, I don’t want to see him.”
When Xue Ziang wrapped his bathrobe around him and came down with his wet hair, he was still grumpy from grogginess, and hitting his head to ease the wave after wave aching pain in his head, he asked, “Where is Zhao Yu?”
The housekeeper shook her head. “I haven’t seen her this morning, maybe she hasn’t gotten up yet.”
There was no one in the bed, how can she not be up yet?
At first, Zhao Yu was not sure if a man like Xue Zhan would feel a sense of pity for a weak woman. After all, he never showed this kind of behavior towards any of his blind dates.
But after Xue Ziang left at dinner today, she finally felt it.
Xue Ziang had enough sense to come back with a cab, and he was not drunk to the point of blacking out. Through the whole ordeal – when the old man tried to beat him and when Xue Zhan sent him upstairs, he was still conscious of what was happening.
It’s just that he was so thoroughly depressed, his reaction speed was slow, his vision was blurred, and he didn’t speak. Even when Zhao Yu helped him clean his face, he just stared blankly at her with unseeing eyes.
Zhao Yu didn’t want to participate in such a big event, so as she originally promised Xue Ziang, she went to the Xue family house to formally meet the elders one day in advance to wish the old man a happy birthday.
