Chapter 16: CHAPTER 16
Shen Mu opened the door to their apartment and was met with silence. She went to check Chng Xiao's room and found her passed out on the bed, still wearing the same clothes that she wore in the morning.
It was the first time that Cheng Xiao had slept for so long. She tip toed out the room, she didn't want to disturb her.
She heard a message tone from her phone and saw that it was from Hu Yitian.
"Do you have some time tomorrow?" He texted.
"Yes, I'm free. What time do you want to meet?" She responded.
"How about dinner?" He texted back.
"Dinner sounds good." She responded with a smile on her face.
"Perfect! I'll pick you up at seven." He texted.
"Okay!" She replied and putted her phone down and went to the kitchen.
When she finished cooking the dinner, she went to wake Cheng Xiao up.
"Xiao Xiao wake up it's time to eat." She said waking her gently.
"Okay let me freshen up." Cheng Xiao responded and went to the washroom.
She came out within five minutes and sat down in front of Shen Mu.
"You don't know what happened in the office today." Shen Mu said taking a bite.
"What happened?" She asked seriously.
"Someone got fired, and another almost because she made bad coffee." Shen Mu replied.
"Well, they have to find him a new secretary." She responded and took another bite.
"What time did you fall asleep?" Shen Mu asked remembering the state she found Cheng Xiao in.
"I think it was as soon as I got home." She replied.
"You slept for a long time." Shen Mu said.
"I think all my sleep was catching up to me." She repied.
"I think the CEO is too dependent on." Shen Mu stated.
"Can we not talk about this, I don't want to waste my time in that company anymore." Cheng Xiao replied.
"Beside I had to quit one day, so why not now. If everything goes well with Ji Xiting we might end up tying the knot, then what will happen." She asked.
"Did it really go well?" Shen Mu asked.
"Mmh!" Cheng Xiao nodded with a smile.
"Hu Yitian asked me out for dinner tomorrow." Shen Mu said showing the message to her friend.
"Wow, I don't know what to say." Cheng Xiao said teasingly.
"Well you know him better. Is he a nice guy." Shen Mu asked seriously.
"Yes, he is the most gentleman in their group." Cheng Xiao replied assuring her.
"I still can't believe that you have met all of them and you are still single." Shen Mu said laughing.
"As if he'll let me date his friend." Cheng Xiao replied rolling her eyes.
"So what are your plans tomorrow, you can't stay inside and sleep all day." Shen Mu said seriously.
"I think I'll take this week to relax and next week I'll start looking for a company." Cheng Xiao replied and stood up to take her plates to the kitchen.
