Kiss Me Goodnight, Mrs. CEO!

Chapter 303: Deutsch, I Love You

At noon, Shi Yuting went to Di Zun Group before he even had time to eat lunch.

When he arrived at the top floor, he quickly walked toward his office. Shi Yuting saw Xiangyi sitting at his seat as he was staring at his cell phone as though he was watching something.

Shi Yuting did not inform Xiangyi that he would not be coming into the office all morning and he did not even give him any instructions at all. Therefore, Xiangyi had been idle all morning.

Xiangyi was just staring at his cell phone as he looked at all the text messages that he had received today. However, Xiangyi simply looked at the cell phone without replying to any of the text messages that he received today.

If it was any other normal day, Xiangyi would definitely have raised his head and greeted Shi Yuting respectfully as soon as he heard the sound of his footsteps.

However, he did not do so today.

Shi Yuting quietly approached Xiangyi’s desk and caught a glimpse of Xiangyi staring at his phone but he did not say anything at all.

When he felt that there was a shadow shrouding his view, Xiangyi suddenly realized that Shi Yuting was already at the office. He quickly raised his head and immediately caught a glimpse of that cold and exquisite face.

He hurriedly stood up as he held his cell phone tightly in his palm before he looked at Shi Yuting and greeted respectfully, “Mr. Shi!”

Shi Yuting glanced at Xiangyi before he said, “Don’t do this again.”

After working for him for more than eight years, this was the first time that Shi Yuting had ever seen Xiangyi losing focus at work.

Xiangyi pursed his lips as he watched Shi Yuting stepping into his office before he quickly put his cell phone away.

Zuo Weiyi felt a little sleepy after lunch. She was originally planning to go upstairs to rest but Shi Nuannuan wanted to have a chat with her.

Shi Nuannuan felt very bothered and distraught because Xiangyi refused to reply to her messages even after such a long time.

“Sister-in-law, why isn’t he replying to any of my messages?”

Zuo Weiyi thought for a while after glancing at Shi Nuannuan’s cell phone before she finally replied, “Perhaps, it is because he does not know that you are the one texting him?”

In her impression, Xiangyi was indeed a cold and introverted person, who had few words to say.

Therefore, she felt that it was only natural for him not to reply when a stranger texted him out of the blue. Moreover, Xiangyi should be at work now and he probably did not even look at his cell phone at all.

Shi Nuannuan frowned as soon as she heard Zuo Weiyi’s words. Was this really the case?

“Then, should I tell him who I am?”

She was initially planning on pretending to be a complete stranger so that she could chat with him on the premise that they did not know each other at all. Unexpectedly, Xiangyi did not bother to reply and of her text messages at all.

“I guess you can try.”

Therefore, Shi Nuannuan lowered her head before she sent another text message to Xiangyi. “It’s me, Shi Nuannuan!”

Zuo Weiyi suddenly recalled something when she saw Shi Nuannuan typing her text message.

“Nuannuan.”

“Yes?” Shi Nuannuan asked as he looked at Zuo Weiyi.

“Do you know what ‘ichliebedich’ means?” Zuo Weiyi could only make out those words with the little impression and memory that she had of those words.

Perhaps, it was because Zuo Weiyi’s pronunciation was not clear, Shi Nuannuan was stunned for a moment before she finally understood what Zuo Weiyi was trying to say.

“Ichliebedich? It means ‘I love you’ in German.” As soon as Shi Nuannuan answered her question, she looked at Zuo Weiyi with a curious expression on her face. “Did someone say these words to you?”

Zuo Weiyi was startled when she listened to Shi Nuannuan’s explanation.

Did this sentence really meant ‘I love you’?

“Are you sure about this, Nuannuan?”

“Of course! Don’t you dare doubt my proficiency in German! Tell me! Who said these words to you? My brother?”

Zuo Weiyi pursed her lips as Shi Nuannuan continued questioning her. Zuo Weiyi naturally did not want to tell Shi Nuannuan all of these things. Therefore, she quickly replied, “No.”

“No?” Shi Nuannuan asked as she narrowed her eyes as though she was trying to see right through Zuo Weiyi. “Then, why are you asking me this question so suddenly?”

When Zuo Weiyi saw the restlessness in Shi Nuannuan’s eyes, she quickly explained, “I saw these words written in a novel and I wanted to ask you about it because I did not understand what it meant.”
