Mu Yuchen looked at Zhou Zimo coldly as he trembled slightly. “Don’t look at me that way. Am I wrong about that? Xi Xiaye is really lucky that she could meet such a special man like you… Oof!”

Before he could finish his sentence, Mu Yuchen grabbed his shoulder so hard that Zhou Zimo yelled out in pain. Just as he was about to say something, Mu Yuchen’s phone started ringing.

The two of them froze before Mu Yuchen clutched his phone and looked at it. It was a call from Xi Xiaye. He handed the glass to Zhou Zimo. “Alright, it’s pretty late already. Go get some rest. We’ll head over early tomorrow.”

Zhou Zimo squinted his eyes as he took a peek at Mu Yuchen’s phone. Then, he exploded into teasing laughter. “Sure, I won’t bother you two now. It’s just two days. Do you guys have to… Ah! I’ll go now! I’ll go!”

Mu Yuchen picked up the call after Zhou Zimo scurried away.

“Why did you take so long to pick up the call? Your message replies were slow too.” The woman’s unhappy complains reached him the moment the call connected. His expression softened.

“Zimo was around just now. Have you had your lunch?” He spoke as he walked to the balcony and leaned against the railing to look downward at the busy streets.

“I had a late breakfast, so I’m not really hungry now. I’ve made arrangements for Lingshi this morning. What about you? Not sleeping yet?” Xi Xiaye’s voice sounded a little hoarse.

“I just got back to the hotel. Things are kind of troublesome here, but I’ll get back in a few days.”

“Mmm, take care of yourself. By the way, I’m using your laptop in the study room. My computer is getting slow. Help me reboot the system after you come back. You know I’m not really familiar with computers and stuff. I’m worried that…”

She had played games throughout the whole of last night and noticed that her computer was really laggy, so she had used his. How typical of her.

“Sure, remember to back up your files and documents,” he replied casually as his long fingers were tapping on the cold railing. “Are you feeling better today?”

“I’m alright…”

“Go eat something and take a break. You have the key card to the office. Ask them to change office for you.”

“It’s okay. I’ll just go to your office. You… Don’t drink so much when you’re there. Also, be careful.”

He chuckled at her before she could finish as if he already knew what she was going to say next. “You’re welcome to check on me any time of the day.”

“I don’t have that kind of time. If you really wanted to, I can’t stop you anyway… Regarding the South River project, I don’t think I can handle it alone. Qikai…” She replied after a short silence.

“Don’t worry, I’m here. I’ll be back once I’m done here. Now, go and eat something and rest for a while. Go home earlier if you’re feeling tired. I’ve told Ah Mo to ask Sis Wang to take care of you these few days.”

After hanging up, Mu Yuchen leaned on the railing for quite some time before finally washing up and getting ready to sleep.

Midnight in New York was quiet. He felt exhausted after working the whole day, so he fell asleep not long after he lay down. As usual, he would reach his arms to the side, but he suddenly woke up with a start when he was not able to reach what he expected to be there…

Sleep did not come so easily after that.

At the same time, Xi Xiaye was in the Yueying office, joining their monthly meetings.

Xi Xiaye was not surprised to see Han Yifeng. However, in just a few days, he looked much paler than before.

After the meeting was adjourned, Xi Xiaye was about to leave when he went up to her.

“Did you receive my flowers?” Han Yifeng stopped beside her and asked quietly.

Xi Xiaye froze and looked at him. His eyes darkened. After a moment, she nodded and said, “I got them, and I accept your apology as well.”

“I don’t know what else I can say to you now. Xiaye, I’m sorry…” Han Yifeng took a deep breath, strife as well as a huge amount of exhaustion clear in his eyes.

Xi Xiaye put the documents inside her briefcase. Without looking at him, she said, “Then, don’t say anything. I’m grateful for what you’ve once done for me. You can think of this as my appreciation toward you, so it doesn’t matter if you’ve done something wrong before. If something truly belongs to you, no matter how far it goes, it’ll come back to you in the end.

“As for us, I’ve tried my best before. Maybe you tried too, but we didn’t work out, so we’re not meant for each other, and I accepted that fact,” Xi Xiaye sighed as she picked up her heavy briefcase and looked at the lonely man in front of her. “We can’t force things to happen. I understand you very well. When I was reflecting on past matters, I don’t like to blame others first. I’d start from looking for flaws within myself. You can’t love me and it just means that I’m not good enough for you. I can’t move your heart. Forcing you would just make me no different than a robber…”

“Xiaye, please don’t say that. Actually, you’re really good… I’m the bad one. I’m not worthy of you!”

For some reason, his heart was in agony when he heard her words. He would rather she criticize him; at least, that would make him feel better.

“There’s no such thing as being worthy or not. It’s just a matter of compatibility or willingness. We can’t make choices about a lot of matters, but we can work through it with effort. Although I failed to achieve my initial target, I ended up with some other rewards.” Xi Xiaye’s tone was calm like the tranquil surface of the sea.

Han Yifeng took a deep breath as he put a bitter smile on his face. “Maybe this is fate…”

“It might be. No one knows who the person that will walk with them till the end of life is. Things can change even with your soulmate. There are things that we need to maintain, and we need fate to work in favor of us for that to happen.”

Han Yifeng immediately thought of himself and Xi Xinyi…

Soulmate…

At this point in time, was it too late to go back in time now?
