Chapter 356 A Thousand Correction Fluids (1)
After speaking, Ji Yi immediately picked up the handbag she had placed on the coffee table and stood up.
The moment she turned around, the corner of her eye vaguely glanced at the corners of He Jichen's slightly moving lips. She had already walked a long way before she could figure out whether he was talking to her.
Only Ji Yi knew in his heart that he almost exhausted all his strength to walk out of the banquet hall and into the bathroom with elegance.
It was only a few dozen meters away from He Jichen to the bathroom, but she felt as if she had walked for several kilometers. Her tired legs were weak and she could not stand firmly.
She was afraid that she would fall to the ground in the next second, so she randomly found an unoccupied cubicle and couldn't wait to enter.
As soon as she closed the door of the stall, she fell down on the toilet as if she had lost all strength.
Ji Yi didn't know how long she had been sitting in such a stiff posture, nor did she know how many people had come into the bathroom, nor could she hear clearly what the people who came in and out said. She only knew that she was holding something in her palm. The bag kept vibrating until her arms went numb. She finally lowered her head, opened the zipper, and took out her phone.
There were five missed calls, all from He Jichen.
She didn't call He Jichen back. Just as she was about to put her phone away, He Jichen's call came in again.
She stared at the name on the caller ID for a while before pressing answer.
As soon as she handed the phone to her ear, He Jichen's slightly anxious voice came from inside: "Where are you?"
"I..." Ji Yi started, but found that his voice was a little dry. He stopped hastily, swallowed, and then spoke again: "...in the bathroom."
"Oh..." He Jichen's tone on the phone was obviously much more relaxed.
Ji Yi knew what He Jichen would say next, so he held the phone and said nothing.
Just as He Jichen opened his mouth and said the word "that", Xia Yuan's charming voice came over the phone: "Jichen, have you finished the call?"
Ji Yi's heart suddenly sank, and the feeling of exhaustion that made her unable to even breathe swept through her body again. Before He Jichen could say the next words, she said, "Well, I It’s a bit inconvenient here, so I’ll hang up now.”
With that said, Ji Yi took the phone off his ear and pressed the hang up button.
About ten seconds later, the phone in her palm vibrated again. It was a text message from He Jichen: "When you come out, remember to come find me."
Ji Yi didn't reply. She put away her phone and stayed in the bathroom for a while before getting up and going back to the banquet hall.
He Jichen and Xia Yuan were still sitting in front of the sofa by the window.
There were several kinds of desserts placed on the originally empty coffee table.
Xia Yuan took a spoon and dug into the ice cream. While eating, she turned to He Jichen and said something sweetly with a smile from time to time.
Behind them is the floor-to-ceiling window, and outside the window is the night view of the Huangpu River.
Two people, a handsome man and a beautiful woman, were sitting together. With the night scene shining with lights as the background, the picture was so bright and beautiful that it looked like a shocking work of art.
Ji Yi's eyes stung a bit, but she couldn't look away. It wasn't until a waiter passed by her and asked her in a low voice if she needed anything that she blinked and looked at the handkerchief in the waiter's hand. glass of wine.
