Love You Till the End-Chapter 983 - 982: Not a Tender-Hearted Man

After Su Jiuyi got back in the car, she took off her mask. She deliberately didn’t sit in the front passenger seat but chose to sit in the back, making Shi Aoju at the front look very much like her chauffeur.

She was still sulking, and after getting in, she didn’t say a word. She took off her uncomfortable high heels and started massaging her sore heels.

She didn’t like wearing high heels, firstly because she didn’t grow up with the habit, and secondly because she worked every day to earn a living and was used to wearing flat shoes.

Recently, due to attending various events and wearing all sorts of high-heeled styles, her feet often felt uncomfortable pinched by them.

Shi Aoju, sitting in the front seat, didn’t react upon seeing her actions, quietly shifted gears, and continued driving without any intention of speaking.

The bustling streets were full of traffic. It was the beginning of nightlife, and the neon lights of towering hotels illuminated every part of the city, screaming of its noise and clamor.

Su Jiuyi quietly leaned against the back seat, her eyelids growing heavier as she watched the night scenes outside the window. She’d been going to bed late recently, and with the Shi Family’s rule for maids to rise early, she hadn’t had a good rest for a long time, eventually falling asleep against the car window.

Shi Aoju observed Su Jiuyi’s every move in the mirror. Seeing her asleep against the car window, he furrowed his brows.

There was nothing warm like a blanket in the car, so he could only turn off the air conditioning and slow down to drive smoothly.

When the car drove into the Shi Family premises, only the security guard at the gate was there. He parked the car in the garden’s open space, got out, and then opened the back door to carry Su Jiuyi out.

Although she had a severe lack of security and was often a light sleeper, since living with the Shi Family, this habit seemed to have broken. Perhaps everyday work made her very tired, or maybe this home provided her warmth and safety, so she slept deeply every night, sometimes even missing her alarm.

Thus, she didn’t notice Shi Aoju carrying her at all, even stretched lazily, smacking her lips and burying her face into his chest.

Shi Aoju pressed his lips tightly, seemingly expressing his speechlessness towards Su Jiuyi.

But upon entering the elevator, he realized a crucial problem.

Wearing a long gown and not carrying a purse, it was impossible to find her room key. So, where was he supposed to take her now?

What a troublesome woman.

Watching the elevator doors slowly close, Shi Aoju relaxed his brows and eventually just pressed the button for his own floor. 𝒇𝒓𝒆𝒆𝙬𝒆𝒃𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝙡.𝒄𝓸𝒎

...

Su Jiuyi had woken up in Shi Aoju’s room more than once now. She suddenly felt that if she experienced this a few more times, she might end up being taken to the hospital by an ambulance due to a racing heart and sheer fright.

The curtains were drawn tightly, letting only dim light filter through the gaps. She glanced at her gown, which was full of wrinkles due to her restless sleeping habits, and the tulle skirt was crumpled beyond recognition.

Perhaps it was when Shi Aoju put her on the bed last night and covered her with a quilt that he found the long skirt too bothersome, so he bundled it up and tossed it inside the covers.

Though this dress didn’t need to be returned to Qi Jingren, she really liked it, and seeing it in such a state proved that Shi Aoju wasn’t someone who cherished tenderness.
