As for Zhu Qianying, she wasn't really that close to him. The total time they spent together was probably less than a hundred hours.

But she could tell he had lost weight in just a few glances.

That's really strange!

"Hmm, I think you've lost about five or six pounds?"

Zhu Qianying's gaze once again scanned him from head to toe like an X-ray.

Tsk tsk, how come God is so kind to this fussy young master?

Born into such a prominent family, he also possesses a terrifyingly shrewd and calculating mind, an outrageously handsome face, and on top of that, a model-like physique that's captivating from head to toe...

"Five catties."

Yan Shao weighed himself this morning, and he was exactly five pounds lighter than last month.

Why is Yan Shao so aware of his weight? It's because his personal doctor and nutritionist gives him a routine physical exam every month, and weight is naturally a must-check item.

If Zhu Qianying finds out about this, it will inevitably add another minor item to his already long list of fussy habits.

Zhu Qianying originally wanted to tease Young Master Yan a bit, but when she heard that he had really lost a few pounds, she felt a little sorry for him.

For some reason, Zhu Qianying didn't even think twice about why Yan Shao had lost a few pounds, and naturally attributed it to working too hard.

“Perfect timing, my mom made some nourishing soup today, drink a couple more bowls.”

Chen Jing brewed this nourishing soup not for Yan Shao, but because she felt that her daughter had been running around and worrying about her troubles lately. Now that the mother and daughter had finally gotten rid of the past and had a new beginning, she, as the mother, should first help her daughter to get some health benefits.

She may not have many other strengths, but when it comes to food and supplements, nothing is truly difficult for her.

Therefore, today's dishes, though seemingly simple and substantial, are actually very well-balanced and exquisite in terms of both nutrition and flavor combination.

"Hmm!" For once, Young Master Yan didn't get angry; in fact, he even nodded obediently.

Faced with Yan Shao's gentle demeanor, Zhu Qianying suddenly didn't know what to say.

Fortunately, the doorbell rang at that moment, and looking through the peephole, it was Yan Shao's personal driver.

"Brother Chen, come in and have some dinner with us!"

Zhu Qianying opened the door and took the bag that Brother Chen handed her.

Brother Chen thanked Miss Wu and then said to Young Master Yan, "Sir, I'll go down now."

Zhu Qianying felt the bag was a bit heavy, so she opened it to take a look. Inside, besides slippers, there was actually a cup, towel, toothbrush, toothpaste, and a toothbrush cup!

Zhu Qianying's eyelids twitched, and she looked at the fussy young master with a mixture of amusement and exasperation. "Young Master Yan, why didn't you ask Brother Chen to bring shaving cream, razor, bathrobe, and sleeping bag as well?"

Yan Shao glanced at her thoughtfully, then took the bag from her hand. "If you need it later, I'll have him bring it up."

"you!"

Zhu Qianying glared at Yan Shao, unable to find the right words to express her complex feelings.

Yan Shao ignored her, took out slippers, and stuffed the rest into her arms. He then bent down to change his shoes while leaning against the wall.

Zhu Qianying suddenly realized that she was a complete fool for having felt pity for this fussy young master!

She tossed the bag onto the sofa, walked straight to the dining table, plopped down in a chair, and started drinking the soup.

"Ying'er, the soup tastes good enough. Are you feeling a bit hot? Can't you taste anything?"

Chen Jing, however, was still unaware that her daughter had merely made up an excuse to send her away, and was currently worried about her daughter's health.

"Hmm, maybe!" Zhu Qianying felt that even if she wasn't angry to begin with, seeing Yan Shao would make her anger rise rapidly.

"Ying'er, why are you eating already? Wait for Young Master Yan to eat together!"

Chen Jing watched as her daughter put down her soup bowl, picked up her chopsticks, and started eating. Meanwhile, Yan Shao had just taken a towel inside to wash his face.

"Mom, I've been tidying up all afternoon and I'm starving. You too, sit down and eat. He'll come over to eat after he washes his face. He's not anyone special, why are you making so many rules!"

Chen Jing shook her head, but couldn't bear to scold her daughter. She went to the kitchen, brought out the freshly heated milk, and pushed it in front of her daughter.

Zhu Qianying picked up her milk and took a sip. When she looked up, she met Yan Shao's gaze.

Yan Shao glanced at the cup in her hand, "What do you want to drink?"

Zhu Qianying shook the milk in her cup and smiled, "A celestial elixir."

Yan Shao pulled out a chair and sat down with a skeptical look. Chen Jing glared at Zhu Qianying and said, "Yan Shao, don't listen to her nonsense. That's milk, not some kind of celestial elixir."

Chen Jing's explanation only confused Yan Shao more. "Why do you drink milk with your meal?"

Zhu Qianying ignored him, put down her cup, picked up her bowl and started eating. She wasn't lying when she said she was hungry. Dinner was supposed to start at six o'clock, but because she had to wait for this fussy young master, she waited until seven.

Chen Jing had no choice but to say to Yan Shao again, "Ying'er has had this bad habit since she was little; she has to drink a cup of hot milk before eating."

Young Master Yan picked up the soup and took a sip. "How strange!"

Zhu Qianxiang glanced at Yan Shao as if someone had stepped on her tail, "Yan Shao, what right do you have to say I'm weird? You're the weirdo yourself, how dare you say I'm weird!"

So, this fussy young master thinks he's incredibly righteous, huh?

Yan Shao always had a good opinion of himself, and this time, he didn't seem to think he was strange at all. After finishing his soup, he picked up his chopsticks, took a piece of meat, put it in his mouth, chewed it a few times, and then asked.

"What's so weird about me?"

He was quite sleepy at first, but after washing his face and drinking a bowl of soup, he felt much more energetic and didn't mind arguing and bickering with Zhu Qianying.

Zhu Qianying bit her chopsticks and looked him up and down a few times. "There's nothing normal about you, isn't there? Has no one told you that?"

Chen Jing, who had previously witnessed Yan Shao's temper and always held him in awe, was secretly terrified when she saw her daughter arguing with him so disrespectfully.

She reached out and tugged at her daughter's arm, giving her a meaningful look. She was afraid that if her daughter continued talking, she would anger Young Master Yan, and then the meal would be ruined.

Surprisingly, Yan Shao showed no signs of anger. Instead, he ate slowly while raising his eyebrows and glancing at his daughter.

No! Tell me!

Even Zhu Qianying was a little surprised.

She thought that Young Master Yan would be a little angry, but not only was he not angry, he was also so "magnanimous" as to ask her to tell her, is this man really the Young Master Yan she knows?

"Let's not talk about far, just like just now, I, as the host, told you that it was fine to wear leather shoes in, since the floor is easy to clean. But you insisted on changing into slippers, is that normal?"

Yan Shao was stunned for a moment. In his opinion, this was his lifestyle habit and had nothing to do with being strange.

"This is abnormal? This is my lifestyle, what's abnormal about it?"

Zhu Qianying secretly rolled her eyes. In this man's mind, everything was normal!
