Si Zheng Ting: ………… . .
She is shocked because of that?
Si Zheng Ting wants to laughs at himself . He has never been nervous while managing Di Hao and yet the smallest action from this woman is enough to unsettle him .
He stares at her . Looking at her burrowed underneath the quilt like this makes her look so cute .
She looks back at him curiously, “What’s wrong?”

What’s wrong? He is worried about her, that’s what!
He feels like going crazy . He wants to act coldly to cover up the awkwardness, but he cannot bring himself to when he remembers what she has to go through . He fixes the blanket on her body properly before speechlessly returning to his place on the couch .
The room is quiet for a moment .
Although it is currently night, Zhuang Nai Nai cannot find it in her to sleep .
She continues playing with her phone .

When she checks her phone’s call registry, she discovers a couple of missed calls and texts .
The messages came from a couple of her colleagues, including Su Mei, asking her why she hasn’t gone to work . Seems like she didn’t work there in vain . See, she actually made some friends!
She replies to each of the messages, telling them she is sick and has asked for a leave . With Si Zheng Ting and Ji Chen around, she is not worried over anything .
Amongst the messages is one that comes from an unknown number . It lists a couple of properties in Beijing .
Zhuang Nai Nai ignores it, thinking that it’s a spam message, but after thinking for a while, isn’t this the real estate agency that she hired to find a house for her?
She is in a desperate search for a house for her mother, so that she has a comfortable place to live in after she returns to the country .

She excitedly reads the message .
One of the listings is a two-bedrooms, two-bathrooms house with the price tag of 7 million yuan .
Space is very valuable in Beijing . That price is pretty average for a property in the capital . The current owners are both working outside the city, so they are pretty desperate to sell the house . It is also located in an area that Zhuang Nai Nai is pretty familiar with . There are a couple of supermarkets and outdoor parks nearby, as well as a hospital . It is very suitable for old pensioners .
She is very happy with that property .
There will be a fierce competition for the house, so she quickly contacts the agent, informing them of her decision to buy it . She pays the deposit while lying on her bed . Then, she messages Lin Xi Er, asking her to retrieve her mother’s ID from the old house and to take it to the agency to finalize the purchase .
She just bought a house like one buys a piece of cabbage, and instead of getting jittery, she is very calm .
Now that a good portion of the 10 million is no longer there, it feels as though the wall they erected between them due to the money is slowly crumbling .
Even though she knows that it is only wishful thinking on her part, she lies on her bed happily .
Now that her trouble is over, she lies comfortably on the bed, slowly falling asleep .
Not long later, Si Zheng Ting looks at her when he hears the faint sound of her breathing .
