“Good morning, young master! Young lady made your breakfast herself. It’s warming up in the pot. Are you going to eat now?”
“Where is she?”
“She went to work.”
Mu Tianye looked at the wall clock, his brow furrowing – he actually slept in.
“Get the breakfast ready, I’ll be right down.”
He returned upstairs and briefly washed up, changed his clothes and went downstairs. After eating his breakfast, he left.
“Young Master.” Ms. Liu chased after him and gave him a small medicine box. “Young Miss instructed me to tell you to take this medicine three times a day, half an hour after meals. You must not forget it.”
Mu Tianye took the medicine box from her, and saw a post-it note stuck to it.
“Remember to take your medicine, be a good boy!”
He wasn’t a kid, what good boy!
The man raised a brow, tore the note off, and stuffed the pill box into his suit pocket. He strode towards the door, holding the note in his left hand. He crumpled it into a ball, but then unfolded it again. He seriously folded the paper and stuffed it into his pocket.
When he went downstairs, the driver who jumped out of the car opened the door for him. Mu Tianye said unhappily. “Why didn’t you call me?”
He had a meeting at nine o’clock, and with such a delay, his scheduled work time was all messed up.
“Young Miss called to say you needed more sleep.” The driver was confused when he was scolded. “Didn’t you tell her to call?”
“This Ning Xiaofei!”
The man raised an eyebrow and dwarfed into the backseat. The driver closed the door right after and started the car.
After driving a distance away from the community, Ning Xiaofei called him again, asking how he was doing, and urging him not to forget to take his medicine.
“I’m fine… I don’t hurt anymore… really… um… bye. “
After ending the call, Mu Tianye grumbled.
“Women are really long-winded.”
Ms. Liu has obviously informed him already, yet she had to specially call to remind him. Did she think he was like her, so forgetful?
The driver of the car secretly laughed. He dismissed someone’s nagging, yet he was obviously happy!
On the other end of the phone, knowing that his stomach hurt no longer, Ning Xiaofei put her mind at ease. She stuffed her phone into her backpack and walked into the elevator with Ye Qiao.
Beside her, Ye Qiao gently elbowed her and teasingly whispered in her ear: “You’re really like glue. You just came down from someone’s bed and it’s not even two hours, yet you’re already thinking of him again?”
“What?” Ning Xiaofei returned with a blank stare. “He drank too much yesterday and he had a stomach ache.”
Ye Qiao just nervously pulled on her arm. “Is that so? Then he should drink some tonic, there are black goji berries, wild ginseng, deer antler…”
Ning Xiaofei immediately asked seriously, “Are these stomach tonics? Should I go to the pharmacy or the mall to buy them?”
Ye Qiao guffawed. “I don’t know if it nourishes the stomach or not, but it sure can invigorate the kidneys. Otherwise, how can he satisfy you, little goblin?”
Ning Xiaofei blushed and reached out to whack her, so Ye Qiao quickened her pace and escaped from the elevator. Fearing that Ning Xiaofei would catch up with her, she rushed past several people all the way through the corridor. It just so happened that there was a woman holding a document out of the office. It was too late for Ye Qiao to avoid her, thus they bumped into each other.
“Sorry.” She immediately poured out apologies and bent down to pick up the paperwork that had been knocked out of her hands. She sorted them out and handed it to her. “I’m so sorry, I didn’t hurt you, did I?”
In response to her apology, the woman merely took the document coldly.
“Ye Qiao, Ning Xiaofei…long time no see!”
Mini Theater:
Ning Xiaofei: Hubby, look at the man, he even cooks occasionally. When are you going to cook something delicious for me?
Mu Tianye: Now.
Then the man stood up and pulled off his tie, heading straight for the bathroom.
Shouldn’t cooking be done in the kitchen?
Ning Xiaofei was in a fog: Honey, that’s the bathroom.
Mu Tianye: I’ll wash the ingredients first.
