C239 I'm Suddenly Satisfied
This was the first time Ji Nian had seen him yell at her subordinates to retreat. She came back to her senses. She replied, "Zhao Yu said you were sick and didn't see a doctor. I went to the pharmacy to buy some medicine for you to treat the cold. She knew that you had to work, so she wouldn't doze off after taking these medicines. And... "
She lifted the lunchbox in her other hand. "Since you're coming over, I made lunch along the way, but it's already two o'clock, so you should have lunch, so I'll bring it back first."
Mu Tingye quietly listened to her speak. Why did he realize that he hadn't heard her voice for a few days? Even her voice was so pleasant to the ears? Also, what she was doing now was caring about him, so he felt warm in his heart.
Ji Nian noticed that the man in front of her was unusually quiet. She looked up and saw that his eyes were too deep, but he didn't say a word. Was he angry that she suddenly came to disturb his work?
She stuffed the bag of medicine in her hand to him and carried the food box herself. She thought that he and Qin Luoluo had lunch together and planned to take it back to eat it herself.
Originally she wanted to come over to eat lunch with him but now it seemed that she thought too much.
"Then, I will go back first." She wanted to turn around again, but her wrist was suddenly grabbed by the man's large hand. She turned around in surprise and bewilderment.
She saw him frown. "You want to bring lunch back?" Who said he ate lunch?
He had not been in the mood to eat during this period of time. Now that the food in the lunchbox was personally made by her, how could he let her bring it back?
Ji Nian did not know about his situation. She nodded and replied softly, Yes." Yes. "
"Who should I bring it back for?" He asked.
Ji Nian was stunned. Mrs Xu had already had lunch in the apartment. Who else could she give it to?
"I will eat it myself." Yes, she had not had lunch yet.
Mu Tingye seemed to be very dissatisfied with her answer, and his brows furrowed even more tightly. He had asked so directly, why did she not understand his thoughts at all? This woman was too unlovable!
"Can you finish two boxes of rice?" He asked in a deep voice.
Ji Nian did not realize that Mu Tingye's question was wrong. She just shook her head subconsciously. She really could not finish it.
"What do you plan to do if you can't finish it? Throw it away? Ji Nian, why are you so wasteful!"
He held her wrist tightly and pulled her into the office. "Come in. Put the lunchbox over there." He meant that she could not waste so much food. He helped her finish the food.
Qin Luoluo finally saw how Mu Tingye lied to Ji Nian. He clearly did not have lunch, but he still pretended that he had already eaten. Now he did not want her to waste food, so he kindly helped to get rid of the food.
His stomach was completely black! He refused to admit that he could not wait to eat Ji Nian's food.
She saw the man pulling Ji Nian to the sofa and coffee table. He was clearly afraid that Ji Nian would run away again.
She slightly lowered her eyes and a faint bitter smile hung on the corner of her mouth. Seeing them like this, she had no reason not to give up. However, she could not explain it to Mu Tingye today. She would find a chance to explain it to him.
Qin Luoluo stood up and said to Mu Tingye, "Ye, I will go back first."
Ji Nian was just pulled to the sofa and when she heard Qin Luoluo say she wanted to leave, she thought that it was not convenient for them to discuss matters here. She quickly stood up and said, "That, I will be leaving in a while, Luoluo, you..."
Mu Tingye's face sank. He pressed his hand on her shoulder and forcefully pressed her back onto the sofa. "Who said you can leave in a while? Didn't you want to wait for me to finish eating and then bring the lunchbox back? I don't eat that fast. "
Qin Luoluo somewhat mockingly glanced at Mu Tingye and turned to look at Ji Nian," I don't have anything important. You can accompany Ye to eat. He hasn't had lunch yet, so I'll be leaving first. "
She seemed to reveal the fact that Mu Tingye did not have lunch by accident. She picked up the handbag that she had put on the chair and winked at Mu Tingye slyly. Then she turned around and left.
When there were only two people left in the office, the atmosphere became a little awkward. Ji Nian stole a glance at him and asked carefully, "You haven't had lunch yet?"
Being exposed by Qin Luoluo, his face only tightened a little and sat next to Ji Nian. He did not answer her question and just coldly said, "Didn't you make lunch for me?"
"Ah? Yes..." Ji Nian only thought that he must have been too busy at work and forgot to eat lunch. She quickly opened the lunchbox and took out all the food. She arranged them one by one and also arranged the utensils one by one.
Mu Tingye who was by the side watching her do these things suddenly felt satisfied in his heart.1
"Why didn't you eat anything?" Mu Tingye suddenly asked while eating. He cast a sidelong glance at her as if he had not seen her for a few days. Her chin had become thinner and sharper. How did Mrs Xu take care of people?
"Oh, I went to the market to buy ingredients. It was a little late when I made them, so I brought them over to eat with you." Ji Nian answered honestly.
Mu Tingye heard her and paused his action of picking the ingredients. His deep gaze suddenly fixed on her. This made Ji Nian think that there was rice on her face. Otherwise, why would he look at her like that?
She used the back of her hand that was holding the chopsticks to rub her face. There was still a mouthful of rice in her mouth that she had not swallowed. She asked vaguely, "Is there rice on my face?"
Mu Tingye's dark eyes gradually became smiling, but it was not obvious. He pursed his lips, "I want to eat steamed fish tonight."
Ji Nian wiped her cheeks but did not find any rice. When she heard his words, she subconsciously nodded, Yes." Oh. "
When she came back to her senses and thought about it carefully, did his words mean that he was going back to the apartment to eat? He... was going back to the apartment?
She was not sure and looked straight at him. "You're going back tonight?" A surprised expression.
Mu Tingye frowned. What kind of expression was she wearing? She was unhappy that he wanted to go back?
"I can't go back?" He asked unhappily. What secret did she hide at home? She didn't want him to go back?
Ji Nian quickly smiled, "No, no. Then I will go to the market to pick the freshest fish tonight."
The man was satisfied now. He finished the two bento boxes very quickly. Mu Tingye's appetite was very good. This was the best meal he had in so many days.
After the meal, Ji Nian washed the cold medicine for him and placed it on his table. "It is still very hot. You can drink it later."
Mu Tingye only glanced at the medicine. His gaze finally fell on Ji Nian. He had been looking at her since the moment she appeared.
Ji Nian was embarrassed by him looking at her and did not understand what he was looking at. She felt a little uneasy. "Then I will help you clean up the lounge."
"Yes." He answered languidly.
Ji Nian turned around and walked towards the lounge. When she turned around, she could feel his burning gaze and unconsciously sped up her footsteps to escape from his line of sight.
Mu Tingye looked at her retreating back and his thin lips curled up into an evil smile. Only after he could not see her would he be able to work in peace.
Beside him, a cup of cold medicine gave off a strong medicinal smell. He frowned slightly and nervously thought that the medicinal smell was also quite good.
In short, the depression from the past few days had been swept away. Should he reward Zhao Yu, a good assistant who thought for his superior's happiness?
