It wasn't that she didn't want to finish her get off work early, but those workaholics always had countless questions for her.

Although she would patiently explain until the other person understood each time, she still felt a bit of a headache.

That's why she always managed to slip away when he wasn't looking.

In contrast, Ye Mohan seemed like someone who was unemployed.

He would punctually drive Gong Yixue to and from get off work every day, behaving like an idle person.

Only the unfortunate Lin Yi dared not speak of his suffering.

He had finally managed to get Cai Qianqian to forgive him after a few days of hard work, but before he could even take the next step, he was pulled back to the company to work overtime.

Now I'll have to appease my wife again.

Ye Mohan: There's no way around it, I have to cherish my wife.

You, just wait a little longer. We haven't married her yet, so let me pamper my wife first.

At worst, I'll give you double pay, and your year-end performance bonus will be doubled.

Lin Yi: Okay, President, please go ahead with your work. I will work hard.

I'll hand over my salary to my wife later; there shouldn't be any problem with that.

Cai Qianqian: ...

That day, Gong Yixue ran out of the laboratory like a thief.

As soon as she got in the car, Ye Mohan, who understood her well, gave her a thermos.

Gong Yixue walked straight past, took a sip, and said with slight surprise, "Brown sugar water?"

Ye Mohan smiled slightly, "Yes, I had Lin Ma make it. I'm just passing on what I've learned."

Gong Yixue nodded, deeply moved.

Even though it wasn't made by Ye Mohan himself, it was still a token of his affection for her.

Otherwise, Lin's mother wouldn't have specially prepared it for her.

"Thank you, it's delicious."

After saying that, Gong Yixue took a few more big gulps from her thermos.

Ye Mohan felt a surge of joy.

"As long as you like it, I'll cook it for you every day during your special period."

Gong Yixue looked at him and said, "No need to trouble yourself. Even if you didn't make it yourself, it's still your good intention. If you hadn't remembered to ask Aunt Lin to make it, this cup of hot brown sugar water wouldn't be here in front of me."

Ye Mohan smiled faintly.

He knew perfectly well that his wife was just being considerate of him.

Gong Yixue took several sips, put the lid on, and put the glass down. Then she said, "I'm going to take a nap. Wake me up when we get home."

This kind of work is already time-consuming, and during this special period, she gets tired even more easily than usual.

Ye Mohan nodded, "Okay, you can go to sleep."

Along the way, Ye Mohan deliberately slowed down, turning what should have been a 30-minute journey into more than an hour.

Even when they arrived, Ye Mohan couldn't bear to disturb her peaceful dream.

Worried that she might catch a cold, Ye Mohan thoughtfully turned on the air conditioner.

Then he unbuckled his seatbelt and began to admire Gong Yixue's sleeping face.

Even when he was asleep, Ye Mohan felt that Gong Yixue was breathtakingly beautiful, so beautiful that he could hardly control himself.

Looking at her face, Ye Mohan grinned like a devoted fan.

His gaze lingered on the screen for a long time.

Suddenly, a rapid cell phone ring broke the silence.

Gong Yixue opened her eyes and her gaze met Ye Mohan's unexpectedly.

Gong Yixue was startled and involuntarily took a step back.

It took her a while to realize what was happening.

He then took his phone out of his bag, and upon seeing the number on it, immediately answered the call.

"Master, did we come out from deep in the mountains and forests?"

The call was from Gong Yixue's master, Gong Jianwenhua.

Moreover, it was Gong Jianwenhua's fixed number.

He did have a cell phone on him; he bought it when he was looking for Sweetheart.

He usually keeps it at the bottom of his luggage when he's not using it.

Except when I need it, it basically just gathers dust.

Because he frequently travels to places with no signal, he uses it even less often.

The fact that he can make calls using this phone number means he has already come out of the deep mountains and forests.

A cheerful voice immediately came from the other end.

"Yes, we're out. We're heading to the capital. We definitely won't miss my disciple's life-long event."

Gong Yixue asked, "Where are you? Do you need me to send a plane to pick you up?"

Gong Jianwen refused, saying, "No need, it's not far, it'll take about a month to get there."

Gong Yixue, "..."

A month isn't that far?

"Master, don't tell me I'm still abroad?"

Gong Jianwenhua: "Yes, it's in a neighboring country, not far away. I took a shortcut."

Gong Yixue didn't believe her master's words. "Are you still going into the mountains?"

Otherwise, why spend so much time taking a shortcut when a flight could take only a dozen hours?

Did he think she would believe him?

Gong Jianwen Hua said somewhat guiltily, "You found out about this. Not long ago, I met a patient who needed a certain medicinal herb that could only be found in the mountains of a neighboring country, so I took the opportunity to come and take a look."

Don't worry, it will only take a few days, ten days at most, and it won't affect my ability to attend your wedding.

"Also, could you send me a few medicinal herbs? I need them."

Gong Yixue: "Master, is this the real reason you made this call?"

Gong Jianwen did not deny it, and said, "Yes, I will send you the medicinal materials and address later. Get ready."

Gong Yixue did not refuse, "Okay."

After hanging up the phone, Gong Yixue looked outside and asked, "Are you home?"

Ye Mohan: "Mm."

I noticed the air conditioner was on in the car and remembered that she had left the window slightly open for ventilation on her way back. I immediately understood.

He's probably already home, but he's choosing to wait so as not to disturb me.

Ye Mohan's gaze made Gong Yixue feel extremely uncomfortable.

She felt that if she continued like this in the car with this guy, and someone said something later... her hands would be the ones suffering tonight.

So, Gong Yixue deliberately avoided looking at Ye Mohan and hurriedly said, "Let's go in."

After saying that, he yanked open the car door.

He jumped out of the car and quickly disappeared from sight.

He left Ye Mohan with only his back to him.

Ye Mohan smiled helplessly.

Is he really that scary?

Is he really that desperate?

What will they be doing here?

Ye Mohan turned off the engine and followed behind Gong Yixue, preparing to enter the room.

Just as he was about to reach the door, his cell phone rang.

Ye Mohan immediately stopped in his tracks.

Take out your phone and answer a random call.

"Second brother, fourth brother, he..."

"Fourth Brother?" Ye Mohan's tone was somewhat unpleasant, and he even interrupted Zhou Yuxuan.

Zhou Yuxuan was taken aback for a moment, then realized his mistake and said, "Sorry, it was a slip of the tongue."

Ye Mohan then said coldly, "Continue."

Zhou Yuxuan: "Huangfu Ming has made his move. Just now, he called me and asked me to get the latest batch of heart disease medication..."

After Zhou Yuxuan finished speaking, Ye Mohan's gaze immediately turned cold, and he said, "Do as he says."
