Jiang Li saw the news on the trending searches while Qi Shifeng was undergoing a check - up.
His first thought was: It's over.
His second thought was: His boss was going to suffer both physically and mentally.
He stood up, paced back and forth twice in front of the door, and decided to conceal this matter for the time being.
After all, the boss was really unwell today. It would be better to tell him when he felt better tomorrow.
Having made up his mind, as soon as his boss came out, he stepped forward immediately and supported him. "Shall we go back now?"
The drip had finished. Qi Shifeng didn't want to stay in the hospital. After the check - up, he could go home.
Qi Shifeng seemed a bit tired. He gave a low grunt and said no more.
On the way back, Jiang Li couldn't help stealing glances at him through the rear - view mirror several times.
Alas, his boss was a handsome and outstanding man in every aspect, yet he was also a lovesick fool.
Previously, he thought his boss was deeply in love with Xie Yu and was with Xu Tingyu out of necessity.
But now it seemed that Xu Tingyu had been the only one in his heart from the very beginning.
If there was any flaw in the boss, it was that he was not good at expressing himself and too neglectful of feelings.
But it wasn't entirely the boss's fault. It was his growing - up environment that made him this way.
The Qi family members were inherently unable to love others. They were taught to be like monsters.
But the boss had long realized his mistakes and had been undergoing psychotherapy.
Over the years, he had taken such good care of Youyou. Youyou was a lovely, warm, and smiling child, completely different from the Qi family members.
Jiang Li had been Qi Shifeng's most capable assistant for many years, so he had met Youyou many times.
Every time, he couldn't help sighing that he never expected his boss, acting as both father and mother, could take such good care of the child.
Not only was he good at taking care of the child, but he also ran the company well.
Others might not know, but as his assistant, Jiang Li naturally knew that Qi Shifeng had already established a company under his full control in order to fight against the old master of the Qi family.
Over the past few years, this company had also been operating very well.
Such a man was simply all - round.
However, there were indeed too many problems between him and Xu Tingyu. Whether they could reconcile was probably unknown even to themselves.
Then there was Shen Yan on the trending searches.
The young master of the Shen family was Xu Tingyu's childhood friend. It was said that they had a good relationship since childhood.
Even when Jiang Li went to inquire about information before, he heard from their mutual friends that if Shen Yan hadn't gone abroad to study, they might have been together long ago.
Then there wouldn't have been what happened later.
He didn't dare to tell his boss these words.
He wondered if the boss could accept it if Xu Tingyu really got together with Shen Yan.
Jiang Li was lost in wild thoughts while couldn't help stealing glances at Qi Shifeng.
When Jiang Li looked over for the twentieth time, Qi Shifeng finally couldn't bear it anymore. He opened his eyes and stared at him with a deep look in his eyes.
"What do you want to say?"
He had known since getting in the car that Jiang Li had something to say.
But he was really unwell and didn't want to ask. He thought that if it was extremely important, the other party wouldn't conceal it.
Unexpectedly, this guy had been sizing him up all the way but remained silent.
Jiang Li was startled when he heard his boss speak first. He secretly regretted his impatience. He knew his boss was smart and perceptive, yet he still dared to keep looking at him.
"It's nothing. I'm just worried about you, Mr. Qi. How do you feel now?"
He still told a lie.
The boss looked really uncomfortable. Hearing this gossip now would be adding insult to injury for him.
Qi Shifeng was a bit impatient seeing him being so hesitant. "I'm fine."
After saying that, he closed his eyes again.
If he didn't want to say it, forget it. He was in a terrible mood now and didn't want to ask either.
When they got home, Youyou had already gone to bed. Aunt Zhang was waiting at the door. She was surprised to see Jiang Li supporting Qi Shifeng back.
"Mr. Qi, are you unwell?"
Jiang Li briefly explained the situation. Mainly, he needed to avoid certain foods in the next few days and have a light diet.
He also asked Aunt Zhang and the others to pay more attention to his condition.
After all, a patient had higher requirements in every aspect than usual.
Aunt Zhang wrote it all down. When seeing Jiang Li off, she couldn't help muttering, "Hey, I don't know what's going on these days. Mr. Qi has been getting sick one after another."
Indeed.
Jiang Li didn't know how to answer.
"It would be nice if the madam were here. Then both Mr. Qi and the young master would be happier."
Aunt Zhang muttered another sentence.
Indeed. When Xu Tingyu was around, this family felt like a real home.
Jiang Li didn't dare to say a word.
If Xu Tingyu really got together with someone else, would the boss never be happy again?
He didn't dare to imagine the consequence. He just greeted Aunt Zhang and left first.
On his way back, he swiped through his phone and saw Xu Tingyu's Moments post. He almost fainted.
He had only added Xu Tingyu on Moments after she came back this time.
After adding her, she had never posted anything. He thought she didn't even use this feature.
Unexpectedly, she did post, and the post was so explosive.
He quickly called Aunt Zhang. "Aunt Zhang, don't let Mr. Qi touch his phone tonight. Let him go to bed early."
Otherwise, he wouldn't be able to fall asleep.
Aunt Zhang was confused but agreed.
Unfortunately, it was already too late.
Before taking a shower, Qi Shifeng subconsciously picked up his phone to check for messages.
There were none.
Xu Tingyu hadn't sent him a single message.
Even though he had pinned her account, he still couldn't receive any messages from her.
He somehow clicked on her avatar and then opened her Moments.
He found that she had actually posted something today.
Qi Shifeng usually didn't pay attention to such things, but since he added her as a friend because of Youyou, he often checked Xu Tingyu's Moments.
It used to be blank, but unexpectedly it was updated today.
However, after he carefully read the content, his face darkened.
She actually posted about Shen Yan on her Moments?
What were the shrimps and crabs about?
Didn't he peel them for her when they were having a meal?
Why didn't she post the shrimps he peeled for her?
Moreover, she never posted his photos. Even when he took photos of the two of them, she asked him to delete them.
She could dislike him and not post his photos or the peeled shrimps.
But she couldn't post about Shen Yan.
Whose wife was she after all?
Qi Shifeng's first reaction was a burning anger. His already uncomfortable body became even more dizzy with anger.
But then, there came a feeling of grievance.
A grievance that could almost shatter a heart.
He was her legal husband. Why couldn't he even have a place in her heart?
She kept getting involved in scandals with one person after another.
Did she still have him in her eyes? Was there still a place for him by her side?
Many thoughts flashed through Qi Shifeng's mind. He wanted to call her directly to question her about the Moments post.
But in the end, he just slumped back onto the bed.
He didn't want her to dislike him even more.
Even if her heart deviated towards someone else, he would pull it back.
