Chapter 428: Take Me Home

When he spoke to her, the corners of his lips still held a faint smile.

Mingming was talking about why he didn't go to look for Tang Xinger.

Explaining why he didn't often take her on dates in the past, why he was occasionally late for their dates, why he would sometimes stand her up at the last moment.

It wasn't that he truly didn't care, nor was it deliberate. He was genuinely busy.

Gu Xi remembered that back then, he was not just busy with the hospital's affairs but also with He Zhiyao's company's affairs. At that time, He Zhiyao was abroad, and all the company's work was handed over to Assistant Jin and Xu Ji.

Assistant Jin alone was overwhelmed, and many issues still required Xu Ji's personal attention.

He was so busy he wished there were 48 hours in a day.
