C342 Why Are You Sleeping Here?

"No." Shen Mingxi felt a little tired and smiled at Mrs Lee, "He still has some matters to attend to and will be back later. You don't need to call me for dinner."

"Big Miss doesn't want to eat dinner? How can this be?" Mrs Lee frowned but saw Shen Mingxi only focusing on going upstairs. She was also unable to stop her and could only lightly sigh. She thought that something must have happened between the two of them which made Shen Mingxi's mood so low.

But when she waited until the clock on the wall pointed to 11 o'clock in the evening, Shen Mingxi did not even hear the sound of a car in the big quiet villa.

Situ Ye, is he still not back?

Shen Mingxi began to feel uneasy. She did not know if anything had happened at the old residence of Situ family, but she had a bad premonition that she would have to wait in the villa.

Although Leng Yan said that Situ Binghua wouldn't do anything to Situ Ye, that was only a part of the possibility. There were other possibilities.

Until 11: 30, Shen Mingxi finally couldn't help but find her phone on the sofa.

She rarely talked to Situ Ye on the phone. The two of them seemed to spend more time together. It was only now that Shen Mingxi suddenly had this kind of realization.

But when the phone was connected, other than the monotonous ringtone on the other side, there was no sound of answering.

Shen Mingxi's heart was filled with worry. Without realizing it, she actually fell asleep on the sofa.

When Situ Ye came back from outside, he pushed open the door to the master bedroom. He did not see the little woman who should have been lying on the bed at this time. Her heart had just stopped beating. The next second, a clear and long breathing sound brought his sight to the large and soft sofa beside him.

"Why are you sleeping here?"

Even though his mind was exhausted to a certain extent, Situ Ye still patiently walked to the side of the sofa. Looking at the little girl sleeping on the sofa with her little head tilted, the corner of his mouth could not help but form a faint smile.

Even he did not know that Shen Mingxi clearly could not hold on and fell asleep while waiting for him. His heart seemed to suddenly be warmed.

Sooner or later, he would return the Shen's to Shen Mingxi's hands. Regardless of whether she still had any thoughts of continuing to operate it or not, he could manage it for her. However, the actual owner of the Shen's would still be Shen Mingxi.

Perhaps, it was not only because of the child in her womb.

His strong arm carried Shen Mingxi up from the sofa and just took two steps forward. With a "Pa!" sound, Situ Ye lowered his head and his gaze fell on the large white screen phone. After a pause, he continued to carry Shen Mingxi, who was still conscious, and continued to walk towards the soft bed.

"Go to sleep." Putting her soft body on the bed, Situ Ye could not help but give her a gentle kiss on her forehead that he could not even imagine. He then turned around and picked up the phone from the ground.

Shen Mingxi's phone did not have a password, so Situ Ye accidentally swiped on the screen. At first glance, he saw that the phone was still on the communication record page.

And the last phone call was for him?

Situ Ye's heart thumped twice. He put down the phone and turned around to find his phone in his pocket. Only then did he realize that his phone had been turned off.

Perhaps it was because he slept on the bed that Situ Ye came out of the bathroom. Shen Mingxi had completely changed her sleeping posture. She had originally looked very elegant and noble during the day. It was hard to imagine that she was sleeping like this.

Situ Ye shook his head helplessly. However, when his dark eyes touched her face, which was extremely similar to another person's, a trace of bitterness flashed across Situ Ye's eyes.

Yes.

He looked at the little woman lying on the bed now and felt that his heart was filled with a warm feeling.

However, when he thought of the person lying in the hospital right now, who might not wake up again in the future, his world suddenly became incomparably heavy!

He suddenly could not look at the petite face that was so beautiful that he could not bear to touch it even in his dreams.

Situ Ye took a deep breath in his heart. His slender and handsome body was loosely covered by a white sleeping robe. He turned around and opened the bedroom door and walked towards the study room.

A cigarette quickly burned on his fingertip.

In the midst of the smoke, Situ Ye's deep and handsome face became even more profound and difficult to understand.

Shen Mingxi vaguely felt that someone was hugging her. But when she woke up, she habitually reached out and touched the other side of the blanket. It was cold.

Her sleepy eyes immediately became half awake.

Until she saw the man standing in front of the French window with bare feet at the door of the study.

"Why are you awake?"

Seeing Shen Mingxi looking at him calmly, Situ Ye's heart trembled. The cigarette that was stuck between his fingers almost burned to his fingers.

However, Shen Mingxi did not seem to have any extra reaction. She saw the man in her heart, who had always been calm, shake off the ashes in a flurry. She only smiled slightly. Her voice was terrifyingly silent in the quiet night sky. "When did you come back?"

She originally thought that her feeling was all a dream but she did not expect that it was all real.

Situ Ye froze for a moment and casually put out the burning cigarette butt in the ash cylinder on the desk. His calm voice did not contain much content. "I just came back and saw that you were sleeping, so I did not wake you up."

Shen Mingxi walked over. Although she did not want to show a little weakness in front of this man, she did not want to show it in front of him. But there were some things that she would not do if she did not want to. She looked at the tall but gloomy man and the corner of her mouth curved. She reached out and hugged his waist. "What happened?"

This was the first time Shen Mingxi saw Situ Ye smoking in the study at night.

He did not have a lot of smoking addiction, and he rarely smoked in front of her. So when she saw him standing in front of the window, she did not even need to think to know that something must have happened to him.

"It's nothing." The smoke in the study room made Situ Ye, who had put out his cigarette, feel a little uncomfortable. He was silent for two seconds. He opened the window again and let the cold wind in. He went into the bathroom of the study.

Shen Mingxi looked at her empty arms and waited for a few seconds. After hearing the sound of water flowing in the bathroom, she calmly watched Situ Ye walk out from inside.

"Let's go and sleep!"

Situ Ye did not leave Shen Mingxi behind and walk away by himself. Instead, he held Shen Mingxi's thin waist, like the most natural couple, and brought her back to the bedroom.
