Chapter 200 Breaking the Ice



The next morning, Xie Wei came to Zhao Yujin's room and knocked on the door.

As is customary, a voice inside the room said "Come in," and Xie Wei opened the door and went in.

Upon entering, I saw Zhao Yujin, who had just woken up, wearing the cute-style bathrobe that Zheng Qi had bought for her, with a slightly dazed look in her eyes.

Zhao Yujin originally didn't have the habit of sleeping. While abroad, she had to be on guard against her two uncles' little tricks at all times. If she relaxed even slightly, she probably wouldn't be able to return to China intact.

Even after returning to the Zhao family, she dared not relax in the slightest, especially since cultivators do not need to sleep to replenish their energy.

However, since Xie Wei took her in after she was injured, she has been well taken care of. The matter of the traitor in the Zhao family of Nancheng still needs to be dealt with slowly. With Hongyu and the others around, things won't get chaotic in the Rose Gang. The only thing to watch out for is the movements of other gangs.

She was incredibly content with Xie Wei by her side during the day, but once Xie Wei went back to his room to sleep at night, she had nothing to do.

Xie Wei also kept saying that since she couldn't circulate her spiritual energy now, she was just an ordinary person, and sleeping would help her body recover. The habits left by our ancestors always made sense.

So Zhao Yujin also rests at night now, but she sleeps very lightly, regardless of the environment; it's just a habit.

So usually, she would wake up when Xie Wei walked to her door.

"start?"

"Hmm," Zhao Yujin said shyly, recalling the conversation on her phone last night.

"Heh, Miss Zhao, you didn't blush at all when you stole so many glances at me yesterday, what's with this whole charade now?" Xie Wei bluntly exposed her.

"Hiss~" Xie Wei had just finished speaking when he felt the soft flesh on his waist being pinched. Everyone should experience that sour and pleasurable feeling.

"Xiao Xingzhi, you're being a bit immature," Zhao Yujin said, feigning a fierce tone.

The man in front of her was rather clueless about romance; her shyness just now was feigned, but now she was genuinely embarrassed and angry.

"This strength...it seems Miss Zhao has recovered quite well," Xie Wei patted her hand, signaling her to let go.

"You still have the strength to deal with me. Hurry up and carry me to wash up, then we'll go downstairs for breakfast. My stomach is growling." Zhao Yujin withdrew her hand and opened her arms, waiting for Xie Wei to serve her.

Zhao Yujin is being coquettish! Isn't that coquettish?

Xie Wei was somewhat astonished, looking at Zhao Yujin with disbelief in his eyes.

Zhao Yujin naturally understood Xie Wei's meaning, and somewhat guiltily avoided his gaze, looking at the phone placed on the bedside table.

Xie Wei's state didn't last long. He could understand why she was reacting this way by putting himself in Zhao Yujin's shoes.

Those who truly cared about her left her, leaving behind an uncle who constantly wanted to kill her and an extremely indifferent grandfather. In this environment, she must have felt extremely insecure, but she couldn't show it, so she put on a shell for herself, and over time, this shell became thicker and thicker.

At this moment, someone she could trust appeared, and perhaps because she had just woken up, she might have shed her thick shell and revealed her true personality.

Xie Wei didn't say anything, but picked him up and took him to the bathroom.

After everything was tidied up, Xie Wei carried her to the restaurant, just like he had done a few days before.

Zhao Yujin looked at the seafood Xie Wei had made himself. The translucent rice paper wrapped around shrimp and oyster meat, mixed with lettuce, and drizzled with a sauce similar to soy sauce. One bite was absolutely delicious.

These past few days, staying at Xie Wei's villa, Zhao Yujin felt that her palate had become quite discerning.

What will I do after I leave this place?

He wanted to marry Xie Wei.

"Oh right, we're having guests coming over later," Xie Wei said.

"Do you need me to go back to my room?" Zhao Yujin

"No need, I just wanted to let you know so it would be more convenient for you down here."

Zhao Yujin didn't think much of Xie Wei's words, but she was interested in the guest Xie Wei mentioned. She felt that Xie Wei trusted the person who came and that he must be a friend.

After lunch, Zhao Yujin finally met the guest Xie Wei had mentioned.

She has long hair and seems to be involved in the arts. She wears a black mask that covers half of her face and a cape of the same color.

The visitor was Ming.

Xie Wei called Ye Yan to ask for a small favor, since Ye Yan wasn't a real doctor and it would be safer for a professional to handle the situation.

Because guests were coming, Zhao Yujin changed into casual clothes and sat in a wheelchair. Her expression was rather aloof, giving people a cold feeling.

She always acted this way in front of outsiders.

Xie Wei explained to her the identity of the Netherworld Doctor and his purpose for coming, but it was inconvenient to reveal his identity as a member of the National Security Bureau.

Upon hearing that the visitor was a spiritual healer, Zhao Yujin glanced at Xie Wei.

Meeting Zhao Yujin's gaze, Xie Wei nodded to her, giving her a look that said, "Don't worry, this person is trustworthy."

"Please," Xie Weichong said.

Ming nodded slightly, then wrapped his spiritual energy around Zhao Yujin's wrist. After a while, he slowly lowered his head, frowned, and looked at Zhao Yujin with a puzzled expression.

I'm not afraid of a smiling spirit doctor, I'm afraid of a spirit doctor with a downcast expression.

Seeing Ming's reaction, Xie Wei quickly asked, "What's wrong? Is there a problem?"

"Don't worry, there's nothing too serious. You handled it perfectly. Just rest and you'll be fine," Ming said as he withdrew his spiritual power.

Hearing this, Xie Wei breathed a sigh of relief.

There wasn't much small talk; Ming had other matters to attend to in the North District, so Xie Wei escorted him to the door.

Seeing that Zhao Yujin had not followed, Ming said, "Young Master Xie, just now, we observed that the young lady in the living room has many hidden ailments, indicating that she has faced many life-or-death moments."
