Yue Lanxing stood up, took the larger box, and said, "Remember to buy some candy before you go to the orphanage, otherwise there won't be enough for the children. I'm leaving now." He then departed.
Zhao Mutou still had two pastries in front of him, and he hadn't finished drinking the water in the teapot. How could he leave? After hearing Yue Lanxing's words, he was still muttering to himself, "If you care so much about the child, why don't you go and check on him?"
Of course, Yue Lanxing didn't hear what he said. If she had heard these words before, she would have been secretly saddened when she was alone, but not now.
Yue Lanxing carried the box to the office door and knocked. "Come in!" Xu Zhaoyue's voice came from inside.
He pushed open the door and went in. "Hey, you're back. Why did you bring something back?" Xu Zhaoyue's slightly surprised voice rang in his ears. Yue Lanxing thanked Zhao Mutou in his heart.
"I met with Reporter Zhu at a restaurant and brought back some snacks. Is Miss busy right now? Would you like to try some?" Yue Lanxing asked Xu Zhaoyue for her opinion.
Xu Zhaoyue glanced down at the blank paper that hadn't been used yet, then looked up and smiled brightly, "Okay."
Under her smile, Yue Lanxing even slowed down his movements when putting down the box. He placed the box on the coffee table and opened it. Sure enough, there were all kinds of pastries inside. After tidying up the coffee table, he went to make tea.
Xu Zhaoyue sat down on the chair and watched Yue Lanxing's back as he made tea. He had a broad back and a narrow waist, and his figure was excellent. He looked exceptionally handsome in a suit. It was a pity that the outfit he wore to the party was cut off before Xu Zhaoyue could get a good look at it. She should have taken a better look.
Yue Lanxing was initially focused on brewing tea, but he soon noticed the gaze behind him. It was the young lady's gaze. Realizing this, he unconsciously became more mindful of his posture. While waiting for the tea to be brewed, he felt like he was losing control of his body.
When he turned around with the plate, I secretly breathed a sigh of relief, put down the tea, and stood there.
Xu Zhaoyue didn't sense his nervousness; she just found it very pleasing to the eye. She took a bite of the matcha-flavored pastry, and after tasting the matcha powder stuck to the corner of her mouth, she saw Yue Lanxing standing next to her as if being punished.
"Why are you standing there? Sit down and tell me what you talked about with Reporter Zhu?" Xu Zhaoyue couldn't reach the chair over there, so she patted her own chair to signal him to sit down.
“Okay.” Yue Lanxing sat down and began to talk about his thoughts and the events of the day.
While eating and drinking, Xu Zhaoyue would glance at Yue Lanxing every now and then, as if listening to a story, and would also comment and praise Yue Lanxing, "Hmm, I knew that it would be no problem to hand it over to you. I will pay for it. If you want to hire people, you can pay their salaries from the villa."
Yue Lanxing nodded in agreement, "I'll take him back to the Xu family in a few days to file his records. There's also one more thing: under whose name should we buy the Sunny Day Newspaper?"
"Just use mine. Sunny Day Newspaper mainly publishes serialized novels. I'll talk to Xiao Hao tonight and ask him to post some things there in the future." That way, Xu Zhaoyue can say that she bought the newspaper for her younger brother, and no one will say anything even if they find out.
