Chapter 59 Apology Event
The atmosphere in the villa was oppressive and gloomy. The nannies sensed that Shang Yan was in a bad mood, so they all dodged him and did not dare to meet his eyes.
Shang Yan leaned lightly against the back of the chair, his well-defined fingers resting on his eyes.
Regret engulfed every nerve in his body, and his limbs and bones became cold.
His face was pale as he closed his eyes. All he could see was Qu Xiao’s trembling body as she forcefully held back her tears and stubbornly turned around.
The butler walked to his side with a worried expression and stopped. He wanted to give him advice but he did not know how to start the conversation.
Shang Yan heard the sound of footsteps. He opened his eyes tiredly and said in a low and hoarse voice, “What should I do? I seem to have done many things wrong. These misunderstandings have hurt Qu Xiao. What should I do to make her forgive me?”
The butler and Shang Yan looked at each other. He was surprised to see the guilt overflowing from Shang Yan’s eyes.
Perhaps Shang Yan himself did not realize that Qu Xiao had already become someone whom he considered extremely important to him.
“CEO Shang, some time ago, my son had a quarrel with his girlfriend. He personally planned a date at a restaurant and bought a lot of flowers as gifts for her. The two of them quickly reconciled.”
The butler said tentatively, “Madam is very young. She should also like flowers and sincere
gifts.”
“As long as Madam can feel your sincerity and that you are sincerely apologizing, she will forgive you.”
The butler’s words were like a ray of hope for Shang Yan.
He immediately went online and found out that women’s favorite gift was “Handmade chocolate”.
Half an hour later, Shang Yan arrived in the kitchen with the raw materials for making chocolate.
He unbuttoned his cufflinks and rolled them up two times. Then, he seriously but clumsily tore open the packaging and poured the chocolate chips into a brand new aluminum pot.
Soon, Shang Yan started stirring the melted chocolate according to the instructions he had found online.
Outside the kitchen, the nannies covered their mouths in shock and ran to the housekeeper to inquire about the situation.
“Does CEO Shang think that the food we cook is not up to his standard? He wants to cook by himself? Will we be fired?”
The butler saw the billowing smoke coming out of the kitchen and hurriedly ran over to help. After taking two steps, he turned his head and exhorted, “Don’t talk nonsense! If CEO Shang finds out that you are gossiping behind his back, he will definitely chase you out!”
While the villa fell into chaos due to Shang Yan’s strange actions, Qu Xiao sat on a bench in the park in a daze.
She picked up the wild flowers by the roadside and tore at them one by one. Her beautiful eyes were filled with resentment as she muttered, “He doesn’t trust me!” “I didn’t even ask him for an explanation when he went to Qu Zhen’s shop to help her…”
Woof..
A soft sound distracted Qu Xiao.
A stray dog was lying beside Qu Xiao’s slender and smooth ankle, obediently wagging its tail around her, showing a fawning look.
Qu Xiao gently patted its head. The puppy’s dark pupils reminded her of Shang Yan, and she could not help but curse “Dog man”.
Ding!
Dozens of messages flooded her phone as she turned flight mode off.
Qu Xiao saw messages from Shang Yan telling her to go home and proudly raised her neck. “I’m not going back.”
However, the next second, a rumbling sound came from her stomach. Qu Xiao’s arms drooped down dejectedly as she dragged her slow footsteps towards the villa. In the villa, the butler applied ointment on Shang Yan’s red fingertips.
The dining table was decorated with heart-shaped handmade chocolate and delicate red roses in full bloom.
Buzz buzz…
Just as Shang Yan was mulling over how to apologize, his phone suddenly rang.
Li said anxiously, “CEO Shang, the overseas branch is in a bit of trouble. You may need to go take a look. I have booked the earliest flight for you. The driver has already gone to the villa to pick you up…” Shang Yan’s expression darkened slightly, but he had no choice but to temporarily give up on his apology event and focus on his work.
Qu Xiao stood in the courtyard. She took a deep breath and calmed her facial expression. She was already prepared to argue with Shang Yan.
But when she came to the living room, where was Shang Yan?
Only the butler stood respectfully at the dining table. “Madam, CEO Shang had to leave last minute for a business trip. He personally prepared this for you.”
When Qu Xiao heard this, she slowly walked to the dining table. When she saw the crooked word ‘Love’ written on the chocolate, she could not help but burst into laughter. As if sensing the butler’s gaze, she quickly put her poker face back on and pretended to be calm as she turned around.
“Madam, CEO Shang really cares about you.”
“After you left the villa, he was especially nervous and went around asking for ways to coax girls…” Qu Xiao was stunned for a moment before she gently picked up the still warm chocolate and placed it by her lips to nibble on it. “It’s very sweet.”
