Chapter 436 I’ll Take You Home (8)
After hanging up the phone, He Jichen put the cigarette to his mouth, took a puff, and slowly blew out the smoke ring. He lowered the window, raised his head, and looked at the tall building not far away. Through the smoke, he stopped at where he was. On the lighted window on the floor where I live.
After looking at it for a long time, it wasn't until He Jichen's cell phone received a call that he blinked, slowly retracted his gaze, and glanced at the cell phone screen. It was a call from the company, probably asking him when he would be back. He didn't answer it, cut off the cigarette at his fingertips, stepped on the accelerator again, and left slowly.

The door was pushed open again, and Ji Yi thought that the person who came in was He Jichen who was escorting Dr. Xia out. His relaxed body stiffened instinctively, and then he heard Mrs. Zhang's voice: "Miss Ji."
Ji Yi was stunned. After two seconds, he raised his head and saw only Mrs. Zhang.
She thought He Jichen was still talking to Dr. Xia outside, so she smiled back at Aunt Zhang: "Sister Zhang."
He Jichen asked many things when he left, and Mrs. Zhang remembered them all in her heart. After she finished changing her shoes and walked into the living room, she immediately spoke up and asked what He Jichen had told her: "Miss Ji, are you hungry now?" If you’re not hungry, can I cook you some midnight snack?”
Ji Yi shook his head.
Aunt Zhang thought about He Jichen saying that if she was not hungry, make her a cup of milk to help her sleep, so she said again: "Miss Ji, let me make you a cup of milk? After you drink it, you can sleep more soundly." .”
Ji Yi hesitated for a moment and nodded gently.
Sister-in-law Zhang replied with a smile, "Miss Ji, please wait for me for a moment" and then entered the restaurant.
When Mrs. Zhang came out of the restaurant with a glass of hot milk, there was still no sign of the door being pushed open.
He Jichen and Dr. Xia actually chatted outside the door for so long?
"Miss Ji, your milk." Mrs. Zhang stopped next to Ji Yi and handed over the milk cup.
Ji Yi came back to his senses, said "Thank you", took it, raised it to his mouth, and took a small sip. The guard still didn't move at all, and couldn't help but wonder: "He... and Dr. Xia are still here." Chatting outside the door?"
Mrs. Zhang paused for a second, then realized that the "he" in Ji Yi's mouth was referring to He Jichen, and said aloud: "Mr. He left when I entered."
It turned out that He Jichen had left a long time ago... Then the two phone calls he made at that time, one was to Dr. Xia and the other was to Aunt Zhang?
Did he specially call Mrs. Zhang to come over and take care of her?
Ji Yi was holding the milk cup and was thinking quietly. Seeing that she didn't respond, Sister-in-law Zhang spoke again: "Mr. He said that the company had something to deal with, so he specially called me here and asked me to take good care of him. you."
It was really what she thought... Ji Yi's heartbeat suddenly skipped a beat, her fingertips couldn't help but clenched the milk cup, and then she felt her heartbeat speeding up uncontrollably.
She had experienced such a situation before, but at that time, she didn't understand that this was a sign of heartbeat. Now she understands, but she is afraid... afraid that she will sink deeper and deeper, afraid that it will be difficult to sort out. Relationships are in turmoil again.
Thinking of this, Ji Yi swallowed hard, suppressed all the throbbing in her heart, then said "Oh" to Mrs. Zhang, raised the cup and drank the milk in one gulp.
Putting the cup on the coffee table, Ji Yi said to Mrs. Zhang, "I'm going to rest first." Without waiting for her to respond, Ji Yi got up and entered He Jichen's bedroom.
