Holding the phone and looking at the word "Xixi" on the screen, he was a little afraid to answer the call. When he thought about the little things they had spent together over the past month, the pain in his heart gradually dissipated, but the fear still existed.
He was afraid, afraid that Baili Xiyao would know what he had experienced in his childhood. Even if he had a premonition that Baili Xiyao would not pity him but would feel sorry for him after knowing it.
But he still didn't dare to gamble.
If his premonition fails to come true, it will be like hell for him now.
With the experiences he has experienced over the years, he has built layer upon layer of walls to protect himself. Whether it is those close to him or the outside world, he is considered a strong man.
A powerful person who is out of control and has great strength.
But only he himself knew that there was a hole under the layers of walls. Whoever held that secret could easily overturn all the walls and drag himself into hell.
As he hesitated, the music started and stopped.
When the music stopped completely, Zhen Mozhao breathed a sigh of relief, but when he saw that it no longer sounded, he felt a little lost.
Zhen Mozhao fell into a deep sleep just curled up in that office chair.
When I woke up again, it was dark.
My empty stomach is protesting.
Zhen Mozhao moved his numb long legs, bent down to pick up the scattered photos and put them away, went to the lounge to wash up, changed his shirt, and walked out of the office.
Outside the door, Ye Yang saw someone coming out and was about to breathe a sigh of relief, but he saw that the person's face was not right, so he hurried forward to greet him: "Boss, do you want to go to the hospital? You look..."
"No, just eat something and you'll be fine." His voice was clear and his expression was indifferent. Apart from his slightly pale face, he didn't show any signs of fatigue.
When Ye Yang heard that someone wanted to eat, he calmed down and followed him, planning to drive out for a good meal.
Unexpectedly, Zhen Mozhao walked straight to the 24-hour convenience store downstairs. When he was picking up instant noodles, he turned around and asked Ye Yang, "Do you want to eat?", and then changed the subject and said, "Forget it, if you want to eat, buy it yourself. I won't wait for you."
After saying that, he actually took the instant noodles to the snack rack, picked up a sausage and a boiled egg, and went to pay.
Soon, the instant noodles were soaked and a spicy smell wafted out. Ye Yang held the five-spice beef flavored instant noodles in his hand and said hesitantly, "Boss, do you want to eat this?" It's better not to eat spicy food. Every time he eats it, he will feel uncomfortable for a while.
Zhen Mozhao glanced at him indifferently, then glanced at the five-spice beef instant noodles, and said with a look of disgust, "No", a little willful.
But just look at that face, and you'll feel like everything he says is right.
Ye Yang did not try to persuade him any more, since this was an ancestor who could not be persuaded anyway.
Pulling up the fork and opening the lid of the instant noodles, Ye Yang took a deep breath and exclaimed, "It smells so good! I haven't eaten this for a long time."
Zhen Mozhao beside him nodded, holding a bitten braised egg on a fork in his hand. The spicy and fresh taste spread in his mouth. His eyes narrowed, feeling a little satisfied.
And five minutes ago, the mobile phone that Zhen Mozhao left in the office rang with melodious music again.
Baili Xiyao stood on the roof, listening to the cold female voice coming from the other end of the phone, his brows furrowed, "Are you sure the baby is in Zhen's Building?", hung up the phone, and looked at Xiao Er with cold eyes.
"Sure, President Mo was in the office this afternoon and hasn't come out yet," and he seemed to be in a bad mood.
Xiao Er didn't dare to say the second half of the sentence. Seeing that Baili Xiyao's face was becoming more and more gloomy, Xiao Er's cell phone suddenly rang. He took out his cell phone and saw that it was a message from Geng Xing!
[Geng Xing]: President Mo is at the convenience store downstairs.
Upon hearing this, Xiao Er quickly handed it to Baili Xiyao to read: "Boss Yao, this is a message from Geng Xing, Boss Mo's special assistant. He says Boss Mo is at the convenience store downstairs in the Zhen's Building."
The low pressure dissipated, and Xiao Er was reborn. After Baili Xiyao left, he bowed to the dark sky.
Here, Zhen Mozhao had just stuffed the remaining half of the braised egg into his mouth when he noticed something dark in front of his eyes. He looked up.
He choked, then was choked by the spicy taste, and his eyes turned red from coughing. Baili Xiyao quickly took a bottle of juice from the shelf, opened it and gave it to the man to relieve his gas.
"Xixi," after a break, Zhen Mozhao stood up from the bench, still holding the fork in one hand, and grabbing Baili Xiyao's sleeve with the other hand in a somewhat helpless manner, with a guilty expression on his face.
"Where's your cell phone?" Baili Xiyao asked in a deep voice.
Zhen Mozhao put down his fork, touched his pocket, and said with embarrassment, "In the office, should..."
"Should?", a little fiercely.
Zhen Mozhao lowered his head and suddenly felt a little aggrieved, but he knew that it was because he didn't answer the call and didn't bring his cell phone that made Baili Xiyao so anxious, so it was reasonable for her to be a little fierce.
But somehow, Zhen Mozhao felt a little aggrieved, perhaps because Baili Xiyao was still in the imperial capital in the afternoon, but in just a few hours, she suddenly appeared in Licheng and appeared in front of him. What's more, the worry in her eyes was not deliberately concealed.
His eyes were slightly moist, and he responded with a muffled "hmm".
Baili Xiyao's heart softened at the tearful "hmm". He went forward and hugged him tightly, holding the back of his head and pressing it into his shoulder.
After a long time, he uttered, "I'm here."
Soon, another "hmm" sound came from the shoulder socket, still with a crying tone, which even made Baili Xiyao feel that his shoulder socket was also wet.
In the afternoon, Lin Linsen came to see her and handed her the genetic test report personally. He looked at her seriously and said something.
"Ah Yao, based on Zhen Mozhao's genetic test results and the details you've shared with me, it seems he was exposed to a potent aphrodisiac when he was very young, and the effects of the drug likely caused cardiac arrest. Therefore, as a doctor, I must remind you that before we fully understand the cause of his fear of physical contact, try not to arouse him excessively, as this could cause another cardiac arrest."
It was because of these words that Baili Xiyao felt inexplicably nervous and had a bad premonition, so she immediately called Zhen Mozhao, but no one answered after she called several times.
Xiao Er asked Zhen Mozhao's two assistants, and they both said that they were working in the office and had not gone out.
Baili Xiyao finally believed his intuition, started his helicopter which he had not used for a long time, and rushed to Licheng.
When she arrived in Licheng, it was already dark. She called Zhen Mozhao again, but still no one answered. This time, no one even answered the office phone.
Fortunately, this time, before she had to worry for long, Xiao Er received a reply from Geng Xing, and she successfully found Zhen Mozhao in the convenience store.
Holding the person in his arms, Baili Xiyao glanced at the bowl of instant noodles on the table that had not been touched. A sausage could be vaguely seen in it. Ye Yang, who was standing next to him, had a noodle hanging under his nose. He was scared after seeing Zhen Mozhao choked just now.
