Chapter 282 Hesitated for a few seconds

Haiyue withdrew her hand ready to take the phone, turned around and said to Sikong Jingqiu who was dealing with business, "I'll go outside to answer the phone, I'll be right back."

"No need." Sikong Jingqiu didn't raise his head, "I'm not in a video conference right now, and you won't disturb me if you pick it up in the study."

With Sikong Jingqiu like this, let Haiyue find some excuse to leave.

She hesitated at the door for a long time before saying, "Uh... I'd better go out and pick it up."

As she spoke, Haiyue quietly nudged Steward Li with her elbow, signaling him to speak quickly.

Butler Li has never lied in his life. Those few words just now almost killed him. How could he know what to say to help Haiyue?
But if you don't say anything, it will only make the young master more suspicious...

So Butler Li had no choice but to bite the bullet and say, "Uh...Master...Let the wife pick it up outside. I just heard from the wife's father that he seems to have something to say..."

Li Butler, who had never interfered with his employer's phone calls, even talked about such a small matter as whether Haiyue should go out to answer the phone, and Sikong Jingqiu became vigilant.

He raised his head, glanced at the two people with the same unnatural expressions at the door, his eyes flickered, he lowered his eyebrows, and said softly, "Butler Li, take Haiyue to the bedroom to pick her up."

Sikong Jingqiu noticed that when he finished speaking, the two people at the door heaved a sigh of relief at the same time.

He squinted his eyes, pretended not to see it, and lowered his head to continue with his business.

Haiyue and Butler Li almost escaped and left the study.

They lost their composure completely, forgot to cover up, and walked so hurriedly and flustered.

Sikong Jingqiu sat there, staring at the empty doorway for a few seconds, then turned the wheelchair and followed.

Afraid that they would see him, Sikong Jingqiu paused at the door for a while after coming out of the study, until Butler Li left and went downstairs, and Haiyue walked into the bedroom, then he turned his wheelchair and came to the door of the bedroom.

The bedroom door was not locked, it was ajar, which showed how anxious Haiyue was to answer the call.

Sikong Jingqiu wanted to push the door and go in, but his outstretched hand stopped a moment before touching the door——

Eavesdropping on phone calls is an invasion of privacy, and even though they are husband and wife, they also need to respect each other's privacy.

Thinking of this, Sikong Jingqiu shrinks back, turns the wheelchair and prepares to go back to the study.

However, the moment he turned around, Haiyue's slightly excited voice came from the bedroom, "Don't rush any more! I will keep my promise and divorce Sikong! Just give me some more time, a little more time, and wait." After confirming that his body is fine..."

divorce?

As if struck by lightning, Sikong Jingqiu's skin went numb, and his mind went blank for a moment.

He stood there, and it took him a while to come back to his senses. He turned the wheelchair in a direction that was facing the door of the bedroom.

Haiyue's voice continued to come from the crack of the door——

"We made an agreement before that we won't talk about this matter until Sikong's injury recovers!"

"I don't need to lie to you, Sikong's injury is indeed not healed! He still can't stand up on his feet!"

"I'm not playing word games with you! I'm not using the reason that Sikong's legs will never stand up again to delay time. In short, I will definitely fulfill my promise!"

"Just give me a little more time! Three days? Okay, three days is three days! Don't worry, I will make it clear to him within these three days and make a deal!"

"boom--"

There was the sound of a phone being dropped in the bedroom.

Then there were heavy footsteps coming towards the door.

Sikong Jingqiu didn't leave without a sound, he just sat there motionless, waiting for Haiyue to come out, waiting for her to give him an explanation.

Who is calling Haiyue?

Why did Haiyue agree to the person on the phone, saying that she would divorce herself?
Why did Haiyue say that her legs would never stand up for the rest of her life?
Why……

Countless whys filled Sikong Jingqiu's head, his mind was chaotic and chaotic, and he didn't know which one to start with, and where to cut in, to analyze and deliberate.
