Chapter 424: Chapter 423 Happy Birthday (1)
His answer was a pillow thrown by Xia Siyu. Had his reflexes not been sharp, she would’ve hurled the glass she’d just been drinking from as well.
Bo Yan changed his clothes and slightly tidied his hair before turning around.
He looked at Xia Siyu and didn’t forget to add, “Are you really not going to let me stay a little longer?”
Did she look stupid? Allowing him to stay would only result in her getting sleep alone.
She wasn’t opposed to intimate relations between men and women, but she had to be willing. But in the current situation, she had no desire to be lovey-dovey with Bo Yan.
Xia Siyu was unequivocal: “Get lost, quick!”
Bo Yan nodded, walked to the door, changed his shoes, and said, “But I miss you a lot.”
Xia Siyu was about to explode: “But I don’t miss you!”
Bo Yan pressed the elevator button, and before stepping in, he poked his head back out, “I’m really leaving now.”
“Just go!” Xia Siyu had barely finished speaking when she heard the sound of leather shoes tapping, followed by the elevator door closing.
Xia Siyu hesitated for a moment before getting up to check, and this time Bo Yan had indeed left.
She stood at the entrance, where the clothes rod she had used for hitting someone earlier still lay. After a pause, she picked it up.
She had intended to put it back, but somehow, holding the clothes rod, she walked to the living room’s floor-to-ceiling windows.
Standing upstairs, she watched a car drive out from the underground garage. Despite the night making it hard to see clearly, it was probably Bo Yan’s Maybach.
She stood there for a while, her phone constantly ringing—not with calls, but with message tones. Turning back, she saw countless messages left for her on Weibo.
The account was probably being managed by her company’s staff by now. She glanced at it but didn’t pay much attention.
Her friends’ circle was also buzzing with activity, with many friends sending her messages to wish her a happy birthday.
Xia Siyu picked the important ones and replied one by one, then turned back, removed her makeup, took a shower, and threw herself again in the center of the large bed.
Her phone was still busy, with a constant buzz, as if she was surrounded by lots of friends.
In reality, over the years, the number of people she could truly count as friends could be counted on one hand.
It was quite an odd phenomenon. Phones and the internet brought people closer together. Even across oceans, connectivity was just a network or phone call away.
But if you looked closely, you’d find yourself completely alone, silent as though in another world.
Because the internet is so convenient, it has actually reduced the number of opportunities to meet friends face-to-face.
She went through her circle of friends, and people at the company also steadily wished her a happy birthday in group chats.
At times like these, Xia Siyu was very generous, sending out a string of red packets without hesitation.
After a while, Qin Baizhou went online. As soon as he logged on, he sent her a private transfer for “1314” with a birthday wish attached.
When Xia Siyu accepted the red packet, she hadn’t thought much about it. Seeing the number and thinking about some things Qin Baizhou had said that day, along with doubts about Bo Yan, she hesitated.
Afterwards, she returned a “2628” red packet to him, double the amount.
Qin Baizhou didn’t accept it and replied, “I hope you’ll always stay at our company.”
Oh, so that was what his “1314” meant. Xia Siyu’s heart settled, and then she sent back an emoji saying “Thank you, boss.”
She knew it, how could Qin Baizhou possibly like her?
But after putting down the phone, Xia Siyu rolled around at the head of the bed.
When Bo Yan was around, she found him always clinging to her.
But without him, the house became very quiet.
