Rebirth from the Ashes

Chapter 329: So Sad That She Felt Like Crying

Shen Xi turned around and smiled. “Of course.”

Qi Xiu smiled and walked toward them with his long legs. “Wait for me.”

He decided to trust her this time.

Shen Feng looked at Qi Xiu sitting in the passenger seat and frowned. He still could not get over Qi Xiu’s behavior earlier and looked at him in contempt. “Are you really just going to come with us?”

Qi Xiu nodded and swept a glance at Shen Xi. “She said she’d take care of everything for me.”

Shen Feng snorted with disdain. “You’re not going home to pack your luggage?”

Qi Xiu replied, “She’ll buy it for me.”

Shen Feng frowned even more. “You don’t need to say goodbye to your family?”

‘He’s going to the Capital to work. It’s not a weekend trip to the suburbs. Shouldn’t he at least go home to tell his family or take his belongings?’

Qi Xiu said, “I don’t have a family.”

Shen Feng was speechless. ‘F*ck… You win.’

Qi Xiu was all alone and only had a broken guitar with him when he followed Shen Xi and Shen Feng back to their house.

With the address given by the police, Xia Hai took Xia Ze and brought a gift to Qi Xiu’s house wanting to apologize to him.

Qi Xiu lived in an old rented house near the city’s First High School. The door was locked and he was not home. After they waited for two hours, Qi Xiu still did not come back, so Xia Hai and Xia Ze went home and thought to come back tomorrow.

Early the next morning, Shen Xi’s family was bringing the abducted Qi Xiu with them back to the Capital.

Shen Feng drove them to the airport.

Shen Tang wanted to go to the Capital with her parents so that she could help take care of the family’s business before they left.

When Shen Xi arrived at the airport, Shen Tang called and said that Wen Wen found Yu Qiubai’s ring on the side of the road, but it was too late to send it over to them. Thus, she asked if she could courier it to them instead.

Shen Xi called Yu Qiubai to ask about it, but Yu Qiubai was afraid it would get lost in transit, so he wanted them to bring it back for him personally. He also said that he would buy them dinner after he got his ring.

The fifth day of the Lunar New Year was when most people started work and school. The Capital also resumed its previous hustle and bustle with people everywhere.

When Qi Xiu arrived at the Capital, Shen Xi arranged for him to meet Yu Yuan to sign the contract. She also arranged for him to stay in the company’s staff dormitory.

Qi Xiu never dreamed that he would not only be given the freedom to create music without anyone interfering with his productions, but also a high position as the Director of the Music Department of Cosmos Entertainment.

He was the only one in the Music Department of Cosmos Entertainment, which was only officially established when he signed with them. Lil’ Chairman Shen also told him that after a while, a signed female singer would join them.

As the company’s music director, he had the say in the genre and style of music of future singers in the company. He would also be involved in ensuring the quality of the music produced and the selection of newcomers. He suddenly had a sense of overwhelming pressure.

However, Lil’ Chairman Shen and President Yuan trusted him deeply. They not only gave him absolute freedom and sovereignty in music production, but also gave him such an important role in the company. He promised to work hard so that he would not let them down.

Lil’ Chairman Shen had given him his first task, which was to release his single on March 18th.

He was in charge of the production and music video shooting. The various resources of the company were also at his disposal. He was also the first singer to debut in Cosmos Entertainment.

That day, the weather in the Capital was surprisingly good and sunny.

Kun Lun looked at the man who had been looking at the wall since this morning and secretly smiled as he lowered his head.

Boss finally got attached to someone and finally seemed more like a human. He was no longer emotionless, lonely, and desolated like before.

Kun Lun looked up in the direction of the wall. Ms. Shen’s parents came back and left again, but he did not see Ms. Shen, so he inquired about it.

Ms. Shen did not follow her parents home after getting off the plane and went straight to her office with the singer she had been looking for. No one knew when she would return, but for the whole day, his boss was looking forward to seeing her.

Shen Xi sneezed and thought, ‘Brother must be missing me.’

She touched her nose and looked in the direction of their neighborhood with a silly smile.

Came evening, the sky was painted dark orange. It felt warm when the sun shone on her.

Shen Xi opened the door and climbed up the ladder at once. She looked around and did not see the man’s figure. Her heart suddenly felt empty and the candied hawthorn she was eating lost its flavor.

‘He’s not there. He’s not waiting for me either.’

This knowledge pained her heart.

She did not know why she was so sad. The tip of her nose felt sore and her eyes were swollen. She was so sad that she felt like crying.

That was because she was looking forward to seeing him after so long. She thought that he reciprocated her feelings, but it turned out that it was just her wishful thinking. She was just excited for nothing.

‘Who am I to him? What right did I have to ask this of him?’

Shen Xi told him that she was coming back today, but he did not have the obligation to wait for her at home.

Li Yuan was doing some work in the study. Suddenly, he felt something and turned his head to see the girl’s small head by the wall.

The girl was wearing a white down jacket with a white woolen hat. She held two sticks of candied hawthorns and looked like a cute elf.

However, her happy and excited expression froze for a moment when she saw the empty courtyard. She then looked so lost and sad that her large clear eyes looked so watery.

Li Yuan rolled his wheelchair to the window as fast as he could and pushed it open. His voice carried some panic and anxiousness as he called out to her. “Xixi!”

When Shen Xi heard his voice, she thought that she was hallucinating, but when she saw the man, the bitter taste in her mouth turned into sweetness. She waved her arm and happily called out, “Brother!”

‘I knew that it wasn’t wishful thinking. He was waiting for me!’

The man’s face did not have his usual calmness and elegance, but a panic that she had never seen before. It was like a stone was suddenly thrown into a calm lake, causing ripples all over.

Li Yuan looked at the sweet smile on the girl’s face that melted his heart. He smiled at her and said, “Wait a minute, I’ll go find Toffeecito.”

He was in the study and she was at the wall, so the distance between the two of them was a little far and they had to yell when they talked to hear each other.

Shen Xi bit into the candied hawthorn and suddenly felt that talking from a distance was pretty interesting. It reminded her of the teenage girls singing love songs across a hill in Northern Shaanxi.

Not long after, the handsome man rolled out his wheelchair to the living room door and chased the little kitten that ran wildly in front of him. He looked a little helpless as he called out. “Toffeecito!”
