After her social outing, by the time Krystal got back, it was already late at night.
She was pleased to see the familiar pair of shoes at the door.
Kai was back.
She opened the door to her bedroom and saw Kai on the balcony as she looked through the glass window.
"Kai! You're back. I missed you..."
Kai's body stiffened a little when he felt the pliable body behind him. He turned around and looked at the girl. "Done with work?'
Krystal nodded, seeming a little distressed. "History and Starlight have been having one issue after another lately, especially Starlight because of sister's sudden comeback... The press conference for 'The World' that we've prepared for so long was ruined. Problems have been appearing for Zixuan as well... Ah, right, Kai, do you know that Sister came back?!"
Kai nodded. "I heard about it."
Krystal's eyes darkened. She guessed that Kai must have found out about the truth about Jennie's disappearance. Intentionally, she said regretfully, "I didn't think that so many things happened to Sister in the past year. Unfortunately, none of us knew and couldn't help in any way..."
Kai did not reply. He just looked up into the night sky with a tight-lipped expression.
Krystal felt a strong sense of unease when she saw his face.
She suddenly remembered how he had disappeared for a day when he should have been back by yesterday.
What had he done in this period of time from the airport on the way home?
Had he really just been in the office? He did not even come back last night.
As far as she knew, the company had not been that busy lately.
She was not really focused on his whereabouts these few days because she had been busy. She wanted to give his assistant a call when she came home just now, but then she saw Kai for herself...
What made her most worried was whether Kai knew about Jennie's relationship with the Zhuang family already.
Would he be like Zheng Minjun after knowing about Jennies's true identity?
She realized that something was not right with Kai since a year ago. Her worries went away before her anxiety could even start since Jennie's disappearance a year ago, but now that Jennie had returned...
Krystal felt agitated.
Damn it, how could she forget about something so important and ignored Kai!
Ten companies could not compare to keeping Kai to herself and clinging to the Su family!
She had been cool and calm all the way before, including facing Zheng Minjun's side because her biggest trump card was Kai.
No matter how much Zheng Minjun disliked her, Zheng Minjun could not do anything against her when Kai was on her side. It was futile even if Su Hongguang were to say something about it.
However, now, she did not feel the confidence when she looked at the man she had been controlling all along...
The expression he wore right now felt extremely foreign to her.
Since when did the eyes of this totally submissive, loyal man lose its former passion and fire when looking at her?
His heart was not with her. Where did it go?
Krystal's eyes were filled with a light of fury. The next moment, her eyes teared up as if she had gone through something terrible. She slumped into Kai's arms dramatically. "Kai, what should I do? I'm afraid..."
Kai took back the words he was about to say when he saw the girl's extremely fearful expression. "What's wrong? What happened?"
