Chapter 8

When Quin Lin woke up the next morning, with somehow swollen eyes, she found that Fade Chen's room downstairs was empty.

Quin Lin's heart sank and her face darkened.

"Did Fade Chen stay out last night? Or was it because he was hurt by me? Did he leave and would never return anymore?

Just at that moment, Housekeeper Wong came out with breakfast, "Miss, are you looking for Sir?

"I'm not..." Quin Lin instinctively denied, but thinking of what happened yesterday, she nodded again and uttered quietly, "Has he not come back all night?"

Housekeeper Wong replied, "No, sir did came back yesterday. He just went to work."

"Work?" Quin Lin was slightly startled, "Why did he leave so early?".

Housekeeper Wong looked at Quin Lin and told her, "Sir said he didn't know the route, so he went out early to take the bus.

"Ah----" Quin Lin suddenly realized she went home alone yesterday, leaving Fade Chen who was not familiar with this place behind. For a moment, Quin Lin was a little absent minded and felt that she had once again hurt Fade Chen.

Housekeeper Wong noticed Quin Lin's sadness. She smiled and said, "Miss, are you worried about Sir? I don't think you have anything to worry about. After he came back last night, when he heard that you had cooked for him, he finished up all the dishes. I didn't even have time to heat them up."

"Ah, all of them?" Quin Lin was a little surprised.

Housekeeper Wong nodded and said, "Yes, all of them. Sir even said that they were delicious!"

For some reason, Quin Lin let out a smile and felt better. She then said to Housekeeper Wong, "Housekeeper Wong, prepare one more bowl of salad. I have good appetite today."

"Yes, Miss," Housekeeper Wong replied.

After breakfast, Quin Lin drove to the company. Sitting in the office, things related to Fade Chen were constantly running in her mind. Arguments which had happened in the company. Fade Chen's disappointment and the home cooked meal last night.
