It was only after four o'clock in the afternoon when the movie ended, and Yan Chu was still immersed in the plot of the movie, chatting with Su Ci while walking.

The little girl chattered non-stop, and the woman listened with a smile, nodding her head from time to time in response.

At this time, the bathroom on the same floor was overcrowded, and the two went downstairs. At this moment, Su Ci's cell phone rang rapidly, and the woman stopped to take out the cell phone from her bag. The caller ID was Qi Ruoyi.

Yan Chu silenced at the right time, seeing Su Ci pick up the phone and whispered to the woman opposite.

I don't know what Qi Ruoyi said, the smile on Su Ci's face gradually faded, replaced by a frown and a heavy expression.

The phone call lasted less than 2 minutes. Qi Ruoyi hung up the phone after finishing her business, while Su Ci stood there in a daze for a moment, as if she hadn't recovered from the news she just received.

"What's wrong?" Seeing her serious expression, Yan Chu realized something was wrong, and immediately put away the smile on her face.

The woman put down the phone and sighed helplessly: "There is a problem with the contract, which needs to be dealt with immediately. I have to go back to the company immediately."

"Ah?" Yan Churen was stunned, "So sudden? Is it serious?"

Su Ci looked at her apologetically, his previously calm and indifferent face now looked a bit imperceptibly depressed.

The girl was only stunned for a few seconds, and soon came back to her senses.

If the situation is not serious, it can be handled by others, and Qi Ruoyi will not call Su Ci.

Although Yan Chu was reluctant but very sensible, she held Su Ci's hand and said, "Then let's go back quickly."

"Sorry." The woman's tone was very guilty.

She asked Yan Chu to come out, and the original plan was to play all day, but now this situation suddenly appeared, she felt very sorry for Yan Chu.

"What are you talking about." Yan Chu pouted and complained in a low voice, "No one could have predicted this situation in advance, and it's not your fault. Don't say sorry, at worst, we can come out together at another time."

The girl's brisk words effectively soothed the woman's emotions. Seeing that Yan Chu really didn't feel unhappy about it, Su Ci nodded: "Okay."

There was no emotional ups and downs on her face, but the hand she held with Yan Chu tightened tightly.

There was a more intimate touch between the fingers and palms, and Yan Chu smiled: "Let's go."

Su Ci drove Yan Chu home first, and then diverted to the company. Yan Chu had dinner at a Chinese restaurant outside the community by himself.

She was worried that Su Ci might not be able to eat on time, so she called Su Ci before the meal, but the woman was probably still in the meeting and the phone was not turned on.

After dinner, Yan Chu took a walk along the street, wandered around in the community, arrived home after seven o'clock, and called Su Qian again.

Fortunately, the connection was successful this time, and the woman's voice sounded a little tired: "Xiao Chu."

Holding the mobile phone, Yan Chu stood on the balcony looking at the street scene covered by lights in the distance, and asked in a low voice, "Sister Su, have you eaten yet?"

"Well, I've already eaten." In addition to the woman talking in the receiver, there was also the faint sound of hurried footsteps.

"Is Sister Su still busy?" Yan Chu pursed her lips, "Are you going to work overtime today?"

Su Ci didn't answer immediately. She hesitated for a few seconds, as if she was pondering over her words, and said after a while: "Xiao Chu, I won't go back today. I booked a flight ticket at [-] o'clock and went directly to the capital. I may have to stay there for more than one hour. moon."

Yan Chu never thought that she would face such a sudden parting just after a little progress in her relationship with Su Ci. After hearing Su Ci's words, she couldn't turn her head around, so she couldn't make a sound for a while.

The woman didn't hear the answer, guessing that Yan Chu would be sad when she heard the news, she felt very guilty.

But the current situation is particularly severe. The previously negotiated partners suddenly changed their minds today. They want to unilaterally tear up the contract and give evidence that their company's products are defective.

Qi Ruoyi said that this matter might have something to do with Wu Jun's matter behind it, and her parents were alarmed, so she had to come forward to deal with it.

If she can't find out and deal with this matter in time, she is likely to face a lawsuit.

Therefore, she had to rush to the capital as soon as possible.

Su Ci's concise words are enough to explain the seriousness of the situation. Yan Chu took a few deep breaths, suppressed the anxiety and fear in his heart, and then replied in a voice as calm as possible: "In that case, Sister Su is on the way. Pay attention to safety, if you can, you can send me a message in the capital."

On the other end of the phone, Su Ci slowed down. The driver just stopped in front of her, and she put her hand on the handlebar. After Yan Chu finished speaking, she took a deep breath, and the corners of her eyes turned red.

"I will." She said softly, "You have to take care of yourself at home during this time."

After hanging up the phone, Su Ci kept holding the handlebar, but didn't open the door for a long time.

The driver looked over and was about to ask Su Ci if there was something missing, but the woman turned her head and said to the assistant who was following behind, "You go first and wait for me at the airport."

Although the assistant didn't understand why the boss suddenly changed his mind, but after being stared coldly by Su Ci last time, she is very sensible now, she is what Su Ci says, and she will never ask the reason rashly.

The boss wants to use a car to go to other places, and the weak and helpless assistant can only take a taxi to the airport at his own expense, and pray that these extra expenses can be reimbursed on the way.

Su Ci sat in the passenger seat, buckled up his seat belt, and said, "Go to Lijing."

The driver nodded, drove onto the highway, and merged into the traffic flow.

·

It has been 10 minutes since the call ended, Yan Chu was lying on the fence with the wind blowing, her eyes fell on the lights of thousands of houses in the distance, but her clear face looked lonely.

There was a serious mistake at work, Su Ci had no choice but to leave as soon as he said it, and she would live alone for the next month or so.

Obviously it was only a temporary separation, and she was never afraid of living alone before, but this unexpected situation still drained her strength without warning.

The living room behind her did not turn on the light, but there was only one person missing, but she felt that the place where she was originally home suddenly became strange.

I didn't know how long I stood on the balcony. After the sun set, the temperature dropped rapidly. The night wind brought some cold and damp breath, blowing, Yan Chu suddenly felt a little cold, and shivered.

Feeling gloomy, she really didn't want to go to the study to study, so she went back to the living room, turned on the TV, and tuned to the CCTV financial channel that Su Ci often watched.

The familiar news broadcast grabbed Yan Chu's ears, as if this would give him the feeling that Su Ci was at home.

It was less than four hours since she and Su Ci were separated, but she had already discovered that there was a world of difference between today and yesterday.

The hour hand of the wall clock in the living room was gradually approaching eight o'clock, and the girl was still feeling sad when she suddenly heard a strange movement from the entrance, like the sound of a key being inserted into the lock.

Yan Chu turned his head when he heard the sound, and it happened that the anti-theft door opened from the outside.

The woman came back in a hurry, and saw that the room was pitch black, only the TV was dimly lit, she frowned slightly, and called out to the figure on the sofa: "Xiao Chu."

"Sister Su?" Yan Chu recovered from the shock, got up and walked quickly to the entrance.

Su Ci turned on the light at the entrance, met Yan Chu face to face, and asked doubtfully, "Why don't you turn on the light at home?"

"Forgot." Yan Chu answered truthfully, and then quickly put aside the topic. She turned her head to look at the wall clock on the wall, and asked, "Why did Sister Su come back suddenly? Aren't you going to the capital? It's almost eight now Clicked."

The flight ticket at nine o'clock, if Su Ci doesn't leave now, he might be late.

Su Ci looked at her peacefully, reached out and rubbed her head: "I'm going, come back and get something."

"Oh." Yan Chu nodded, "What do you need to bring? I'll get it for you."

The woman quickly changed the shoes, and replied after hearing the words: "It's okay, I can get it myself."

She passed by Yan Chu and walked quickly into the bedroom.

Yan Chu followed into the room, and saw Su Ci open the drawer of the bedside table, looking for something quickly, after a while she raised her head, and there was an extra bank card in her hand.

Su Ci turned around and handed the bank card to Yan Chu: "You take this."

The girl didn't expect Su Ci to come this far, subconsciously took the bank card, and after listening to Su Ci say the password, she asked in a daze, "What do I do with this?"

"I'll give you living expenses. I'm going to the capital this time, and I don't know when I'll come back." Su Ci closed the drawer, "You can use this if you need to spend money, and buy what you don't need. Don't save."

Yan Chu understood, and his mood became more and more complicated.

The woman saw her sitting on the edge of the bed in a low mood, holding the card and keeping quiet, not knowing how to comfort her.

She walked up to Yan Chu and sat down, hesitated a little before raising her arm and wrapping it gently around Yan Chu's shoulder.

"I'm not here during this period, and Qi Ruoyi will be in charge of the company's affairs. I'll send you her mobile phone number later. If you encounter any trouble, don't hesitate to call her. She will definitely help. In addition... ..."

Su Ci's voice paused for a while, and Yan Chu heard her let out a soft breath.

"I'll call you, and you can also contact me. Even if something doesn't work, I'll get back to you when I have time."

Yan Chu nodded obediently, and responded, "En."

The woman pursed her lips, looking hesitant.

The room became quiet, and after a while, seeing that the woman was still quiet and had no plans to pack up, Yan Chu couldn't help reminding: "Sister Su, don't you still have something to take? I'm afraid I won't be able to catch the plane if it's too late."

"I didn't come back to get things." The woman's voice was very soft.

Yan Chu raised his head with a surprised expression.

The woman lowered her eyes, looked away, and murmured softly as if digressing: "I'm actually a little worried, will you feel uncomfortable on your own, will you be able to take care of yourself, will you eat your meals on time, will you get along well with your classmates... ..."

Yan Chu looked at the woman's reddish ear tips and was a little taken aback.

After Su Ci finished speaking, he finally prepared himself mentally, and turned his head to meet the girl's gaze.

"I'm back...just to see you."

"I will try to solve the problem before May [-]st, and then we will go out to play together." She tightened her arms and wrapped the girl in her arms, "Xiao Chu, don't be unhappy, take care of yourself, and wait for me to come back."
