Chapter 872: When The Conditions Are Right, Success Will Come (3)

Zhou Zimo hung up on the call just as Su Chen was about to yell back at him. He glanced at the darkened phone screen before feeling a headache come on. He then gave Mu Yuchen a call.

Mu Yuchen was having fun with his son at Maple Residence when he got Su Chen’s call.

“Ah Chen, quickly send someone to the Imperial Sky Entertainment Club to take a look. Zimo just called me and I sense that something isn’t right. Did he break up? I’ll leave him to you. I haven’t had dinner yet. That’s all, bye!”

Su Chen quickly passed the issue onto Mu Yuchen the moment he heard his voice, then he swiftly hung up on the call without making sure that his friend understood what he was talking about.

Mu Yuchen frowned at his screen.

“What’s wrong?” Xi Xiaye asked as she noticed his frown.

“Rest soon. I’ll go and take a look at Imperial Sky.” Mu Yuchen grabbed his car keys and went out.

Su Chen was relieved after he gave Mu Yuchen a call. It was pretty common for them to take care of each other’s mess.

Ji Zitong seemed much better after a nap.

“Eat more!” Su Chen put the dishes right before her.

“I’ll just eat whatever I can. I don’t want to get bloated. Go and take a shower while I clean the dishes.”

Su Chen was not a big eater, so in comparison, Ji Zitong could eat a lot.

“I’ll just consider it exercise after dinner,” Ji Zitong added when she noticed his hesitance.

He nodded and went upstairs without saying anything else.

Ji Zitong actually felt uneasy around him recently. Although she was pretty distant when she had not known him that well yet, after staying with him for a while, she found out that he was a really nice and caring guy. Despite being rather bossy at times, he never bullied her.

He still respected her when others might already have gotten angry at her already.

Ji Zitong knocked her own head before she quickly cleaned everything up before heading upstairs. She saw Su Chen lying down on the bed when she entered the bedroom. He had a document in his hand while talking to someone on the phone. She closed the door quietly and went into the bathroom without making a sound.

Su Chen was still on his call when she was done with her night routine. It seemed like there was a major accident investigation, and Su Chen was scolding them for being sloppy at work.

His tone of voice was angry and his expression was strained. Ji Zitong had never really seen him actually being serious before. Now that she was witnessing it, she felt like laughing.

“I don’t want any excuses. Next Wednesday, all of you are done for if I don’t get the report by then!” Su Chen ended his phone call angrily. His frown became even worse when he saw Ji Zitong giggling at the side!

“What are you laughing about? What’s so funny?” He felt like he was getting disrespected more and more often. His subordinates used to be terrified of him whenever he got angry.

However, now that something had happened, they were giving him all kinds of excuses, and his own wife was laughing at him. Su Chen felt defeated. Chief Huang from the headquarters had just called him earlier and given him a good scolding!

Ji Zitong coughed lightly. “I used to think that you were pretty scary when you’re angry, but now I realized you’re not really that terrifying.”

“Seriously? That’s what you have to say?” Su Chen glared at Ji Zitong unhappily.

She smirked and got into bed without saying anything. Glancing at her, he put his phone on the bedside table and continued looking at his document.

Ji Zitong switched off the lights on her end while the workaholic beside her was noting down the important points to bring up at tomorrow’s meeting. The whole bureau was working on safety promotion events lately. With summer coming and the frequency of accidents anticipated to rise, it was a busy period for them.

“It’s already 10 p.m. Look at your documents tomorrow,” Ji Zitong reminded him when she noticed his focused expression.

Su Chen looked over and saw she was already lying down. Her long hair fanned out on the pillow as her light blue pajamas highlighted her fair skin. Her slightly opened collar was also very attractive.

He began to feel his breathing become uneven. He hesitated for a while before finally putting his document away. Then, he turned over and stared directly at Ji Zitong with sparks in his eyes.

Upon noticing what was happening, she took a deep breath and turned around, facing away from him. His eyes were like the eyes of a predator targeting its prey. He was a wolf, and she was a juicy little sheep.

Su Chen giggled as he quickly grabbed Ji Zitong’s shoulder and pulled her closer.

“Switch off the lights!” Ji Zitong said.

“Leave one on, or else, I can’t see anything…” His body was already on top of her as he spoke.

“No…switch it off…” Ji Zitong insisted.

Su Chen looked at her for a moment. Her eyes were closed as she blushed. His eyes darkened slightly as he stopped his movements. “Do you not want to?”

Ji Zitong then opened her eyes that were glistening.
