896. Chapter 896 Wedding (Part 3)

It was already late at night, and the lights were dim. When Su Chen got off the plane, it was already past ten o'clock in the evening. It was naturally a long way from the airport to the villa. He got off the plane with Secretary He, but Secretary He had arranged a car to pick him up.

"Okay, you should go back early too. Take a day off tomorrow and come back to work the day after tomorrow. Give me a leave application. As for the content, you know, it will start the day before the wedding and take a week. I will go to work the day after tomorrow. Please give it to me."

Su Chen sat in the car and said to Secretary He beside him.

Secretary He nodded respectfully and replied, "Okay, Director Su!"

After saying this, the car slowly drove forward, gradually speeding up, and soon disappeared into the vast night.

As they gradually approached the city, they could still see that the city was still bustling. In the past, he would not have gone home so quickly, but would have gone to find Zhou Zimo and the others and had a drink at the bar first. But now, after getting off the plane, he wanted to go home directly. He didn't know if it was because there was someone at home.

Since Ji Zitong hung up on him that night, he hadn't called Ji Zitong for several days. He just sent a text message to say goodnight at night. Ji Zitong replied to him with only one line of words--

Okay, you too, goodnight!

Then Su Chen always felt that something seemed to be missing between them, even though they already had each other.

As the car moved towards the villa area, Su Chen, who was sitting in the back, rarely had such a quiet time. He naturally sorted out the bits and pieces between him and Ji Zitong. Later, he suddenly felt that perhaps he should be nicer to her.

As a man, no matter how uninhibited he was before marriage, he still had to be responsible for the woman after marriage. He suddenly understood Mu Yuchen's transformation.

With an idea in mind, he felt a little relieved.

At this time, the car slowly stopped in front of his villa.

"Director Su, we're here!"

The driver's careful and respectful reminder came from the front. Su Chen quickly pulled his thoughts back. He looked up and found that it was indeed his villa. He nodded and got out of the car with his briefcase.

The whole villa was dark. The dim light came from the two street lamps in front of the door and the lights on the roadside in the villa area. She must have slept too. It was almost twelve o'clock.

Su Chen didn't think too much. He took out the key and opened the door directly.

The house was indeed empty. He closed the door, changed his shoes, and went upstairs directly.

At this time, in the bedroom, Ji Zitong had turned off the lights and gone to bed for a long time. When Su Chen was not around, she usually went to bed early. In addition, the flower farmers from the flower farm came to reconcile accounts these days. The work was tedious and she was a little tired.

When she was half asleep, she suddenly felt as if someone pushed open the door. Her head was also groggy. She thought she was dreaming, but she still rubbed her eyes subconsciously and looked up at the door--

There was a bright light coming in from outside, and there was also the sound of pouring water and turning things over?

Ji Zitong was startled at the moment, and she became much more sober. Could it be that the house was robbed?

Thinking of the serial murder case that the man mentioned a few days ago, Ji Zitong also frowned subconsciously, and she actually felt a little uneasy in her heart.

And, just as she was daydreaming, she suddenly heard footsteps approaching the bedroom. The person gently reached out and carefully pushed the door open a crack, and a tall and straight figure came into view. Although the room was very dark, Ji Zitong could tell who it was by looking at the figure.

"You come back!"

After identifying the figure, Ji Zitong exclaimed and sat up quickly, reaching out to turn on the light in the room, and the room was suddenly bright.

Su Chen was also stunned for a moment. He didn't expect her to wake up suddenly. The big hand that was about to close the door changed to pushing the door open. While walking towards the bedroom, he reached out to unbutton his shirt and said in a low voice, "Did I disturb you?"

"No, I just went to bed not long ago. Why are you so late? You didn't tell me in advance when you came back?"

Ji Zitong turned over the thin quilt, slowly got out of bed, and sat on the bedside looking at him.

Su Chen took off his shirt, went to the closet with his bare chest, found his robe, and said, "The plane is late, you can go back to sleep."

"Forget it, I slept in the store during the day. Have you had dinner? I'll cook you some midnight snacks."

Ji Zitong got up quickly and was about to go out, but was stopped by him, "No, I'm not very hungry. I had a simple meal on the plane. I'll take a shower first, you can go back to sleep."

Su Chen looked at her deeply, and then walked to the bathroom.

Ji Zitong was stunned for a moment, stood there for a while, and then took a deep breath, walked over to pick up the dirty clothes he had thrown aside, put them in the bucket next to the bathroom door, and walked out silently.

About half an hour later, Su Chen finally finished washing, and Ji Zitong also helped him to pack up his things.

Su Chen reached out and scratched his almost dry black hair, and walked over to the bed. At this time, the phone on the table beside him suddenly vibrated. Su Chen glanced at the caller ID and saw that it was Secretary He calling, so he answered it.

"Director Su, are you home?"

Secretary He is a very competent secretary, and he often does this kind of work.

"Well, we're here, you should go to bed early."

"Okay, by the way, the gift you bought for your sister-in-law is with me, do you want me to give it to you now?"

Gift?

Su Chen couldn't help but knock his head. No wonder he didn't find it when he searched his pocket just now, and thought he had lost it.

"It's okay, you can bring it back the day after tomorrow when you go to work."

Su Chen said this and hung up the phone directly. However, these conversations naturally fell directly into the ears of Ji Zitong who was standing beside him. Her beautiful eyes were filled with a faint overflow of color, and she glanced at him flickeringly, and then sat down next to him.

"You..."

Ji Zitong said in a low voice.

Su Chen then put his phone on the bedside cabinet, turned his head, and a slight relaxation appeared on his resolute and handsome face. "I went to the jewelry boutique over there. The jade and gemstones there are quite famous. I brought you a pair of earrings. I forgot them with Secretary He. He will deliver them to you when he goes to work the day after tomorrow."

"Why do you still care about these when you are on a business trip? I don't bring them often."
