Absolutely Spoiled - Chapter 51.1
Chapter 51.1 – After Marriage 2
Yizhou was the name of the online gaming company that was formed by Shi Yi, Jiang Chizhou, and several other people.
In the past two years, they were working on an ancient-themed online game called “Chong Meng Jiang Hu.”
There were bumps in the road as the business developed. Establishment was tough in the beginning, and midterm issues never went away. However, the company didn’t stop working, and they went through many difficulties repeatedly.
When it became really busy, the company’s technical staff slept in the company almost every day and did not dare to slack off.
Shi Yao also stayed at the company from morning to night. He did not relax during the whole process and was always racing against time.
Yu Zhiyi, who was still studying at the university for her masters, was staying at the dormitory these days, and she didn’t know that Shi Yi was staying at the company. One day, Yu Zhiyi went home without telling Shi Yi and waited for her husband.
The man who was supposed to return home at that time did not show up, and she heated the food several times.
She waited patiently at first, thinking he was getting trapped in traffic. After wating for hours, she called him.
Shi Yi: “Recently, the company has been very busy, and I will go home later.”
However, Shi Yi lied to her; all night long, he did not return.
She never doubted Shi Yi would do something sorry for her and thought he was in trouble. So the next day, when she returned to the university, she asked for leave from her mentor and went to the company.
“Sister-in-law, why are you here?” The employees of the company were a little taken aback when they saw Yu Zhiyi.
“I have to meet Shi Yi; is it convenient now?” Yu Zhiyi responded.
“Yes, of course. Right now, Brother Yi ought to be in the technical department. I’ll accompany you there.” Xu You came to help Yu Zhiyi. He was Shi Yi’s one of the college roommates, so he was familiar with Yu Zhiyi.
Yu Zhiyi took advantage of the opportunity to enquire about the state of the business. “Are you busy lately? I’ve heard Shi Yi mention putting in extra hours at work.”
In response, Xu You said, “Yeah, there was a problem with the game. Lately, every department has been extremely busy. After being away from home for a few days, Brother Yi and Brother Jiang share everyone’s happiness and sorrows.”
‘Many days… still haven’t returned home… Why did he hide it from me?’
Xu You guided her to the technical department area with just a few words of effort.
In front of the door, Xu You said, “Sister-in-law, that’s it; you can go in by yourself; I have something on hand.”
With a soft nod, Yu Zhiyi said, “Thank you.”
“It’s okay, I’m going now.” Xu You turned to walk away, waving his hand.
Before entering the room, Yu Zhiyi hesitated for a while, and she had no idea that she would be spotted by department colleagues as soon as she poked her head in.
Sometimes Shi Yi took Yu Zhiyi for company dinners, and all the people at the company knew she and Shi Yi were wife and husband.
So everyone could practically tell who she was looking for the moment she appeared.
“Brother Yi just left.”
“He should be gone back to the office.”
After getting the information she wanted, she politely thanked them and went straight to the second floor.
The company was still not large, so Shi Yi’s office was still very small.
Yu Zhiyi knocked on the door while standing in front of it, but no one answered.
At that time, Jiang Chizhou came out of the office next door, and when Yu Zhiyi heard the noise, she glanced at him.
Jiang Chizhou said, looking at her, “He is inside.”
Yu Zhiyi nodded at him. “Thank you.”
She opened the door with a push. The guy she was searching for was laying on the desk in the silent office. ‘It seems he was sleeping.’
Yu Zhiyi softly shut the door.
She approached him very quietly, fearing she would wake him up.
When she was closer to him, Yu Zhiyi realised how Shi Yi looked right now. He seemed very haggard.
She remembered when she called Shi Yi other nights; he sounded very well, but in fact he was suffering. ‘He didn’t tell me not to worry me.’
Yu Zhiyi’s eyes filled with tears, and she wiped her tears with a distressed look.
Perhaps she was too weak to bear it. Seeing him so hard, she felt uncomfortable. ‘I can’t let Shi Yi see my tears.’
Shi Yi’s desk was very clean. Apart from the computer, some paper materials, and pens, there was nothing extra.
Including this office, the decoration was also very simple.
Yu Zhiyi didn’t bother Shi Yi. She left the office quietly.
Have a nice day!
