Some also thought that the president had brought it upon himself. Since he hadn’t cherished her, he lost a wonderful lady like her.
They all thought that after the press release session, the lady would definitely have seen the news. But since she hadn’t returned, it showed that she wouldn’t forgive the president.
Xirong Ziye naturally heard the citizens’ discussions. He merely smiled in response to that, but deep down, he had been concealing his pain into the deepest depths of his heart. Feeling his heart ache with every beat, he could seemingly understand what Bai Yaoyao had gone through in the past.
In fact, he knew that the citizens were right. Bai Yaoyao might have seen the news, but her whereabouts were still unknown. That clearly showed how she felt.
Even though he knew deep down that she wouldn’t forgive him, he still harbored a little hope inside.
He even felt that just meeting Bai Yaoyao now would suffice. He had simply missed her too much.
He hadn’t seen her in a long time. Now, he didn’t even have a single photo of her. Even though he missed her, he couldn’t see her at all.
Her silhouette was etched in his mind. Even though such a long time had passed, her image in his head still remained so vivid. It was so clear that it made his heart ache, and sometimes, it hurt so badly that it didn’t even feel like it belonged to him anymore.
The most precious belonging he had was that sweater—the one that Bai Yaoyao hadn’t been able to complete knitting.
That was his most prized possession, so he stored it away safely. It was the only thing that Bai Yaoyao had left for him.
To many others, the president was growing increasingly isolated and quiet. Besides the matters concerning the country, he hadn’t been speaking much.
The people by his side also thought that the president had changed. His aura had become cold, distant, and desolate.
No one could console him. Only the woman he was trying to locate could warm up his heart once again.
Despite knowing that the new year was approaching soon, Xirong Ziye couldn’t feel excited at all. All the citizens had decorated their homes brightly, and the country was so lively.
However, amidst the festivities, all he could feel were loneliness and desolation.
The malls and streets were brightly lit in red, and festive music filled the air. Even so, he still felt down. Without that particular someone, he felt empty, regardless of how bustling or lively it was.
“President, it’s time to eat.”
Each time Xirong Ziye looked at his meals, he would be reminded of how Bai Yaoyao had personally prepared food for him. Thinking of the meals she cooked for him, his heart would throb.
As he looked at those dishes once again, Xirong Ziye couldn’t bring himself to eat it. He merely answered quietly, “Leave it here.”
“President, the doctor has instructed you to have meals on time and take care of your body. Your stomach cannot take any more suffering.”
As his servants, they knew that the president hadn’t treated Miss Bai very well in the past, which upset her very much. However, seeing how weak the president looked now, they couldn’t help but feel worried. Their hearts ached for him, and they wished that Miss Bai could return soon too.
Xirong Ziye simply had no appetite. Sometimes, he forced himself to eat a little.
“President, take care of your body. That way, you can be together with Miss Bai when she returns.”
Indeed, Xirong Ziye’s face lit up slightly at the mention of Bai Yaoyao. That’s right. He had to be in good health so that he could take care of her when she returned.
There were too many things that he wanted to do for her. He wanted to cook for her, keep her company, and make her happy.
