Chapter 173 If Line: Chi Heng Chapter 6

Just after Mingyue finished her work and stepped out of the drying room, she saw Chi Heng leaning not far away and looking at her.

The boy's dazzling golden hair shone with a soft warm glow in the sunlight.

A pair of quiet emerald eyes stared at the girl without any emotion.

"Ah! Oh my god, I'm so scared!" Mingyue subconsciously said something in Chinese.

After realizing something was wrong, she immediately switched to South African language: "Master, when did you stand here---"

How long has he been here?

What are you looking at her for?

How can he be like a male ghost in broad daylight?

Chi Heng frowned slightly when he heard the girl's subconscious words.

What Ming just said was not the Federal language, but Chinese?

She knows such a niche and difficult language?

Oh, that’s not surprising. After all, she has black hair and black eyes, and her East Asian genes account for a high proportion.

Chi Heng tilted his head and said, "This is my home. I am free to appear in any corner."

The boy's answer left Mingyue speechless. She could only fake a smile:

"Excuse me, Master, what do you want from me?"

Chi Heng placed his hands in the pockets of his gray formal pants, straightened his thin back, and walked towards Mingyue step by step.

As he walked up the stairs, the trouser legs, which originally covered his ankles, were forced to rise.

He wore no socks, only a pair of wool slippers for moving around the room.

As she took a step, her ankles, which were not white at all but had distinct bones, were exposed.

The young man was only 1.75 meters tall, and when he stood in front of Mingyue, he was only slightly taller than her.

Chi Heng lowered his eyes slightly, imitating the girl's deliberate smile, and his voice was as clear as jade:

"I told you, I want milk with two cubes of ice."

Mingyue raised her head to look at her, the white skirt of her maid's outfit fluttering in the wind, her almond-shaped eyes filled with disbelief:

"Why didn't you ask someone else to bring it to you? Why did you go all the way to the laundry room to find me? Just so I could go back and get you some milk?"

Mingyue was angry, this time she was really angry.

She was so angry that her face turned red. She didn't use any honorifics and glared at Chi Heng:

"Do you enjoy tormenting me so much? Where are those gentlemanly courses you've taken?"

The girl also took a step forward, looking straight into those beautiful green eyes with her head held high.

"You asked me to heat milk for you in the middle of the night. Fine, this is my job. I'll do it no matter how late it is."

"But you asked me to go jogging with you at 4:30 in the morning?"

"Besides, there's someone right next to you who can do those little things at any time. Why did you have to arrest me?"

Ming Yue yelled, "Chi Heng, you are sick!"

The boy, who was scolded harshly, had his eyelashes trembling slightly, and a pair of round eyes burning with anger were reflected in his eyes.

"I just asked you to pour me a glass of milk. If you don't want to go, forget it. Why are you mad at me?"

He felt a little guilty for some reason, but he still maintained a cold expression:

"I am sick. I can't see clearly, and my sense of taste and smell haven't returned."

Mingyue was about to have her period and her temper was extremely bad. She was so angry that she said:

"I don't care what you do! I'm quitting my job today! Go find someone else to mess with."

If you don’t have a monthly salary of 30,000, then find one that earns 3,000 a month. Saving for a few years will be enough for the college entrance exam.

Mingyue turned around, picked up the basket and wanted to leave, but the next second, Chi Heng grabbed her wrist.

"I just asked you to deliver milk a few times in the evening and go jogging with me a few times in the morning, and you're going to quit your job?"

He couldn't believe how this girl could be so unreasonable, and asked:

"You are a maid and I am the employer. Besides, have I abused you?"

Chi Heng was also very angry, but his anger was more of a discomfort.

Especially when I heard Mingyue say she wanted to resign.

The first person he saw when his vision recovered was Mingyue.

The person who helped his sense of taste and smell recover was not a doctor, but Mingyue.

Although the housekeeper hired a Chinese chef and increased the seasoning according to Mingyue's method, he could still tell the difference.

But he chose to lie to everyone.

He said he could only taste the flavor of what Mingyue made herself.

In the past few months, Mingyue would coax him to eat in different ways every day, and his sense of taste and smell were slowly recovering.

She would treat him as a friend:

I get angry, I argue with him, and I watch all kinds of boring videos on my phone...

I would also ask him if I could go to his study to borrow his books, and he agreed.

Mingyue was the first one who was allowed to read and write in his study, and even lie down on his sofa and take a nap when she was tired.

Chi Heng felt that being friends with a maid was not a shameful thing.

So at 8:30 in the morning on the 12th of last month, when Mingyue said that they were now friends in private, he did not refuse or ridicule her.

He could see that she was genuinely kind to him.

She has no family and no mental strength, just like him.

But she was lively, enthusiastic and interesting. Linda cared for her and she became friends with several maids.

But he is boring, indifferent, no one loves him, and he needs to be wary of many people.

I am also tortured by headaches and bone pain every night and have to rely on medication to maintain sleep all year round.

--

Mingyue was held tightly by the boy's hand, and she gasped in pain.

Chi Heng immediately relaxed and blurted out:

"I'm sorry, I didn't mean to. I'm very strong, you know."

Mingyue rubbed her wrist, becoming even more furious:

"If you have too much energy, go run, go to the gym, go swimming, don't bother me!"

Chi Heng looked at her wrist with red fingerprints on it, and felt even more uncomfortable. He forcefully took her wrist to check it.

"Are you made of dough? I just grabbed it, how come it turned so red..."

Mingyue raised her hand and hit the boy on the arm:

"How dare you say that? Don't you know how strong you are?"

"It was the same thing last time. I don't know what I said that irritated you, but you immediately crushed the glass. I was so scared that I thought you were going to hit someone."

Chi Heng rubbed the girl's wrist, pursed his lips, and said:

"I only attack those who hurt me, and I will kill them... But you said we are friends."

"I won't hurt my friends."

"Unless you betray me."

Mingyue: “…”

Her eyes swept across the boy's drooping eyelashes, and then looked at the little movement of his lips pursed when he was unhappy.

And there was something so lonely and damp about him.

Finally, she looked at the big hand with pink joints gently rubbing her wrist.

They say they are friends, but if people see them making arrogant faces and acting like this, it would not be unfair to say that they are in "puppy love".

Neither of them spoke for a moment until Mingyue withdrew her hand.

She picked up the basket and stuffed it into the boy's arms:

"My hands hurt. Please help me take it back to the laundry room next door."

The moment before, Chi Heng was still thinking about how he would keep Ming Yue if she really dared to resign.

The next second, a big basket appeared in his arms.

"You want me to help you do something?" The boy looked stunned.

Mingyue nodded and glanced at him, her ponytail swung in a playful arc as she turned her head.

"You hurt me."

Chi Heng pursed his watery red lips, and a suspicious blush suddenly appeared on his flawless fair skin.

He said something that he felt was very embarrassing:

"I can help you with the work, but don't quit. I'll give you a raise as compensation for hurting you."

He knew she loved money.

It just so happens that he has plenty of money.

He alone owns 70% of the Chi family's shares, and also has a trust set up for him by his mother.

He doesn't have to do anything and he will have more money than he can spend in his lifetime.

Ming was his only friend, and he didn't mind giving her some.

Sure enough, when the girl heard about the salary increase, she looked at him with sparkling eyes, "Really! You can't regret it!"

Chi Heng lowered his head to look at the girl, revealing an uninhibited smile: "Then can you bring me some milk?"

The boy's body was in great pain due to the aftereffects, but his heart finally felt a brief, comfortable warmth.

"Of course, two ice cubes. Please wait a moment, Master. I'll be right there."

Seeing Mingyue about to leave, Chi Heng suddenly held her arm gently and said with a frown:

"Forget it, your wrist hurts, I'll go by myself."

Mingyue looked at the boy, but he suddenly turned his head away.

She couldn't help laughing, "Ha, thank you, Master~"

Chi Heng felt something strange in his heart, and his ears suddenly felt hot. He said in embarrassment:

"Don't smile like that every time!"

The boy strode away carrying the basket, his steps a little hurried and flustered.
