Chapter 368 - 367: Confession Again (9)
That day, the necklace went missing. Ling Chuxia was so nervous, so anxious, and although he consoled her, he had already taken note of it in his heart.
After taking Ling Chuxia back to the villa, he didn’t sleep but instead drove back to the school and searched carefully once again. But at that time, he hadn’t found it.
At that time, he had also thought about just having an identical necklace made afresh.
However, when he thought of Ling Chuxia’s tear-streaked face and her anxious demeanor, how much she loved that necklace, even if he had an identical one made, it wouldn’t truly be the same.
Thus, he ordered Xiao Zhao to send out broad notice across the campus, that whoever found that necklace would be handsomely rewarded.
Now, as the saying goes, Heaven rewards the diligent, and the necklace had finally been found.
Shi Che’s fingers gently picked up the necklace, the sun pendant hanging in mid-air, its silver light flickering. Shi Che’s mind couldn’t help but picture Ling Chuxia’s charming face, imagining her expression when she saw the necklace again.
She must be... very happy, right?
The corners of Shi Che’s lips deepened into a smile, and he watched the necklace for a long while before slowly shifting his gaze, then turned toward Xiao Zhao and said, "Tomorrow night, I want to free up all of my time."
This sudden statement from Shi Che caused Xiao Zhao to pause briefly, but he quickly understood, thought it over, and replied, "President Shi, postpone all engagements? But you have a dinner appointment with President Chen, and you have already postponed on him several times. It took a while to reschedule this time... If postponed again..."
Before Xiao Zhao could finish, Shi Che’s unwavering eyes and his detached voice cut in, "Postpone it."
Two words, crisp and decisive, showing no sign of hesitation.
