The runaway Cinderella of the billionaire president

The weather in June is like a child's face, changing in an instant. It was sunny in the morning, but suddenly it was covered with dark clouds near noon, and it started to rain heavily in a short while.

Zhou Yian was trapped in a sunny glass house in the yard. There was a violent storm outside, but it was quiet inside. She curled up on the sofa, enjoying a moment of peace. She quietly watched the rain falling from the sky, hitting the glass roof hard, splashing everywhere, and turning into beautiful butterflies.

The rain kept falling and there was no sign of stopping until the evening. What surprised Zhou Yian was that Xu Zehao did not come back that night and did not contact her.

She called him and texted him, but received no response.

She made a pot of black tea and drank it while waiting until the early morning. There was no reply to the message and no response from the person. Zhou Yian concluded that he would not come back, so she went to bed.

When I woke up in the morning, the room was still empty, with only Zhou Yian there.

After breakfast, she fiddled with the flowers and plants in the garden. The rain last night was so heavy that many flowers withered and died. In the afternoon, she took a nap, and after waking up, she followed the online tutorial to learn how to cook and made herself a sumptuous dinner.

At night she curled up on the sofa in the living room and watched TV until midnight, then fell into a deep sleep.

The next day, Xu Zehao still didn't come back.

This was a very abnormal thing. At least in the past six months or so, even when he had a conflict with Zhou Yian, Xu Zehao had never stayed out all night like this.

She picked up her phone to send him a message, only to find that she had been blocked by Xu Zehao without her knowing when.

She was surprised when she found out she was blocked, then she dialed his number without taking it seriously. The cold female voice on the phone kept repeating, "Hello, the number you dialed cannot be connected at the moment. Please try again later..."

Zhou Yian was stunned. Is he avoiding her?

The more he wanted to avoid her, the more she didn't want to do what he wanted.

She quickly picked up the keys on the table, went out, took a taxi and went straight to Xu's.

When she wanted to go past the front desk and head straight to Xu Zehao's office, the front desk stopped her, "Wait a minute, Miss Zhou."

"what happened?"

"Uh, have you made an appointment with Mr. Xu?" The receptionist seemed a little embarrassed. After all, she was easily offended. She had just drunk the milk tea that the person sent her a few days ago, but today she stopped the person.

Zhou Yian frowned, "Appointment?"

"Yes, this is...this is what Mr. Xu specifically ordered."

Zhou Yian understood what she meant instantly. She ignored it and turned around to continue walking inside. Seeing this, the receptionist hurriedly followed her and said, "Ms. Zhou, you can't go in..."

Zhou Yian walked forward regardless, ignoring the shouting from the front desk behind him.

"Ouch..."

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry."

Because she was walking in a hurry, she bumped into someone when she turned the corner of the corridor.

"Zhou Yian?" Gu Jiatong frowned and looked at Zhou Yian in confusion.

Ever since she was ridiculed in public by Zhou Yian at the club, Gu Jiatong has not had a good impression of Zhou Yian. She doesn't understand what is so worthy of Xu Zehao's love for this woman other than her pretty face.

Zhou Yian glanced at her and nodded, "I'm here to find Xu Zehao." Then he walked towards Xu Zehao's office.

"Hello, Special Assistant Gu." The receptionist greeted Gu Jiatong hurriedly after seeing her, and then continued to jog after Zhou Yian.

"Hey, you guys..." Before she could finish her words, the receptionist had already walked away, leaving Gu Jiatong standing there alone, her mind a little confused.

After thinking for a moment, she followed.

"Xu Zehao, you..." Zhou Yian pushed open the door of the office and found that the huge office was empty.

"Ms. Zhou...Ms. Zhou, Mr. Xu is not here. Please...leave me now. Otherwise, when Mr. Xu comes back, I will be scolded again. I am just an employee. Please don't embarrass...embarrass me."

The receptionist held her waist and gasped for breath.

"Not here?" Zhou Yian muttered to himself, then looked up and glanced around the office.

"Yes, Mr. Xu is not in the company because of something."

"Do you know when he will be back?"

"I'm not sure about this. Miss Zhou, why don't you call Mr. Xu and ask him?"

"Well, sorry to bother you." Zhou Yian was about to leave when Gu Jiatong came towards him.

"Have you seen Xu Zehao? He hasn't been home for two days. I can't contact him. I'm worried about him."

"You haven't come back for two days?" Gu Jiatong looked at her puzzledly. Obviously, she didn't know either.

The receptionist at the side seemed to have her head down, but she was actually listening to them with her ears perked up.

Seeing that Gu Jiatong looked unaware, Zhou Yian said nothing and immediately turned and left.

The receptionist looked at Zhou Yi's departing back, then glanced at Gu Jiatong, "Assistant Gu, I'll go over there first." Then she turned and left.

Gu Jiatong pursed her lips thoughtfully, then picked up her phone and dialed a number, "Zehao, Miss Zhou came to the company to look for you. She said she couldn't contact you and was very worried about you."

"No, she's gone...Okay, I got it." After saying that, she hung up the phone.

Gu Jiatong is very smart. She only says what she should say and never asks questions that she shouldn't ask. It is precisely because of her proper sense of propriety and boundaries that she has been able to stay with Xu Zehao for so long over the years.

After Zhou Yian came out of Xu's house, she walked aimlessly along the street. She suddenly found that she couldn't understand Xu Zehao at all.

After shopping for a while, she went to the nursing home to see Zhou's mother. Since she stopped working, she went to the nursing home every few days to accompany Zhou's mother.

Mother Zhou seemed to have gotten used to life in the nursing home. Apart from her mobility problems, she didn't seem to have any troubles and she smiled more often.

It was almost dark when Zhou Yian took a car from the sanatorium back to Nanwan. As soon as she entered the yard, she saw Xu Zehao's car parked in the middle of the yard.

She pushed open the door with trepidation. The room was quiet and no one was there.

She went to the second floor and pushed open the study door, and Xu Zehao was indeed inside.

"You're back." There was a mixture of surprise and anger in her tone.

Zhou Yian also changed from his gentle and quiet appearance just now, his whole temperament suddenly changed, becoming charming and lively.

"Xu Zehao, what's wrong with you? You didn't answer my calls or talk to me these past two days. I went to your company today to look for you, but the receptionist stopped me from entering. She has no tact at all."

"You know, I went to your company today, and when I came back I went to see my mom. My legs are almost broken."

"If you don't come back, I don't know where to find you."

"Don't do this again, okay? I'll be worried."

As Zhou Yian spoke, she sat sideways on his lap and put her hands around his neck. Her posture was very intimate and her voice was soft and tender, just like a little wife.

"Xu Zehao, why don't you speak?"

Listening to her chattering on and on, Xu Zehao felt annoyed, but he remained silent and endured it.

She used to be proud and stubborn. She suffered a lot for life but never gave up easily. She had her own ideals and things she wanted to pursue. It was her unique characteristics that made him crazy about her. Even after gaining her favor, he also carefully cared for and loved her.

He once thought that she was different from other women, so he gave her all his tenderness and pampering.

He thought that as long as he indulged her, she would stay by his side forever, so he responded to her every request and doted on her.

She went on an endless shopping spree and he doted on her. He never interfered with her repeated large transfers of money. He gave her money and things when she asked for them. But she became more and more greedy and wanted more, so she stretched her hands further.

He didn't understand why hatred could make her grow more stubborn and radiate her unique personality charm, while her love made her change and become more hateful.

"An An, what exactly do you want?" Xu Zehao, who had been silent for a long time, finally spoke.
