Chapter 1005: Xu Che’s Side 17 – You’re Going to be a Father

For the next few days, Xiao Yi didn’t know how to speak to Xu Che. Every time the words were on the tip of her tongue, she would feel that it wasn’t the best time.

During this period when Xu Che’s arm was injured, for the first few days, he couldn’t exert any strength at all. Xiao Yi’s heart ached when she saw this. At the same time, she felt that she had been too selfish.

Xu Che noticed that Xiao Yi had been hesitant to speak for the past few days. He was very stubborn and did not ask her about it because he really wanted to see her take the initiative to open up. However, even after his injury healed, Xiao Yi still could not tell him the secret in her heart.

Although he felt that he had been very patient with Xiao Yi, sometimes, he would still be hurt by her actions despite knowing that it was not on purpose.

For a week, it was status quo.

A week later, Tang Yan personally called Sheng Xiao to borrow Xu Che for a joint operation that required Xu Che’s agile skills.

For some reason, when Xu Che received this mission, he heaved a sigh of relief. The unwillingness he faced every day from Xiao Yi was almost suffocating him.

That night, Xu Che went home to pack his luggage.

Seeing this, Xiao Yi panicked. “You’re leaving?”

Seeing Xiao Yi’s nervous expression, Xu Che’s depression was relieved. “I have a mission. I’m going on a business trip for a few days.”

“A few days? Is it dangerous? When are you coming back? You didn’t even discuss it with me.”

Hearing her question him like a firecracker, Xu Che closed his luggage and looked at Xiao Yi seriously. “It’ll take about four days. It’s a high-risk operation. If nothing unexpected happens, I should be back on Friday.”

Xiao Yi was even more flustered when she got the answer. “Do you have to go?”

Xu Che put down his suitcase and held Xiao Yi’s hand, his tone a little helpless. “I know you have something to say to me, but can’t no matter what. Sometimes, I wonder if I’m the person closest to you. Why can’t you trust me wholeheartedly until now? Why aren’t you willing to give your heart to me? I thought I wouldn’t mind. I thought I could continue to wait, but sometimes I realize… that I’m also a person, an ordinary man.

“When I received this mission, I didn’t know why, but I actually felt like it was a stroke of luck. I couldn’t continue lying to myself. Xiao Yi, I’m not a blockhead. I feel that my position in your heart isn’t that important.

“During the four days that I’ll be away, you should think carefully. If you’re sure that you can’t give your heart to me, I think that we can choose another relationship. There’s no need to force each other like this.”

After hearing Xu Che’s words, Xiao Yi was stunned…

She was at a loss. She thought that she had hidden her insecurities well, but in reality…

It wasn’t like that at all.

“Xu Che, it’s not like that. Can you not leave?”

Xu Che shook his head. “I’m by your side, but you can’t see yourself clearly. Besides, a person’s life is at stake. Everyone is waiting for me now. Take good care of yourself these few days. I believe that you can do it.”

With that, Xu Che picked up the suitcase.

Then, without waiting for Xiao Yi to continue, he quickly walked out of the house.

He never wanted to say such hurtful words to her, but… if he didn’t say it now, his chest would explode.

The four days would be a good time to calm down.

..

Xiao Yi watched Xu Che leave with her eyes wide open. Tears suddenly flowed out of them. She didn’t know why she still lacked courage. She was clearly not the same person from before.

The day after Xu Che left, Xiao Yi called Mu Qiqi.

Now, only Mu Qiqi could untie the knot in her heart.

The two of them arranged to meet at the branch office. Mu Qiqi knew that Xiao Yi hadn’t slept all night.

“Did something happen with Xu Che?”

“Xu Che said that I don’t love him enough. That we should calm ourselves down for a few days,” Xiao Yi replied weakly.
