Chapter 269 What else did she ask you?
The dinner is over.
Wang Yuanling had already paid the bill.
At this time, the three of them were walking along the corridor leading to the door.
Gu Zhou walked ahead alone.
Wang Yuanling and Chen Guanze walked side by side behind him.
Chen Guan said gratefully, "Thank you, Mr. Ling, for hosting us today. The Japanese food here is really good."
"As long as it suits your taste, I'm glad. I should thank you both for the opportunity to host me tonight."
There was an endless smile spreading in her eyes, and under the warm light, it looked like a bright pearl with a halo, dazzling and moving.
Chen Guan's eyes lit up again and again: "Let me make a deal first, Mr. Ling, next time I'll treat you! I can't let you spend money anymore."
Wang Yuanling smiled lightly: "It's okay, Mr. Chen, friends don't care about these things."
Chen Guan was so happy that he didn't want to leave and opened his mouth to say something else.
I noticed it out of the corner of my eye.
He met Gu Zhou's dark eyes that were devoid of warmth.
In an instant.
There was a fearful feeling as if a snake with cold scales was slowly wrapping around my neck.
He shut his mouth out of survival instinct.
Tsk.
It seems that his brother is still very disgusted with Mr. Ling.
To the extent that.
For his rebellious behavior of appearing in the private room and talking to her.
They were all scrutinized by his sharp black eyes.
Chen Guan suddenly stopped, causing Wang Yuanling to follow his gaze.
Gu Zhou lowered his eyes lazily and said calmly, "I'll take your car."
Chen Guan paused: "You didn't drive here?"
Wang Yuanling was also confused.
Wasn’t it his driver who brought him here just now?
Gu Zhou's expression remained nonchalant: "I asked him to do the job."
Chen Guan: "Okay, I'll park my car right outside the door."
After they got in the car.
Chen Guan rolled down the car window and said goodbye to Wang Yuanling with a smile: "Then we'll leave first, President Ling."
"Okay, be careful on the road."
Wang Yuanling glanced at Gu Zhou who was sitting in the passenger seat.
This angle.
Only the lower half of his face was visible.
In stark contrast to the laziness that always appeared on the upper half of his face.
The sharp lines like sculptures run from the tip of the nose, down to the jaw and then to behind the ears.
No emotion can be seen.
On the contrary, it seems a bit mysterious and dangerous.
"Goodbye, Mr. Gu." The moment the car moved forward.
She whispered.
He seemed to respond indifferently?
But the sound of the V8 sports car starting up resounded throughout the bamboo forest.
Caught in the cacophony of all things.
She couldn't tell if she had heard it wrong.
The car has already left the parking lot.
In the rearview mirror.
Wang Yuanling clasped her slender hands in front of her and stood gracefully at the door.
Until the turn.
That figure could no longer be seen.
Gu Zhou half-closed his eyelashes and looked away.
Chen Guan, who had been feeling uneasy for a long time, was brewing his words: "Well, I simply felt bad after drinking a bowl of ginger soup that she had worked so hard to make that day, so I... answered some of her... small questions... about you."
His eyes wandered between the road conditions in front of the car and Gu Zhou's nonchalant face.
In the cramped environment of the sports car.
Gu Zhou's casual yet extremely sharp gaze was extremely oppressive.
Chen Guan felt guilty for a moment and quickly tried to make amends, "But! Look, the human spirit doesn't have bad intentions towards you. They simply recognize your abilities and want to work with you, so... I'm kind of helping you."
He finished speaking.
I waited anxiously for a long time.
Entered a dimly lit tunnel.
Still no time for Gu Zhou to speak.
But his scrutinizing gaze never left him.
This feeling is tormenting and scary.
Chen Guan's inner self-defense line was broken.
Admit your mistake honestly: "I was wrong, brother, you can beat me or kill me if you want, but don't look at me like that, it's creepy."
At that time.
The car drove out of the tunnel.
The streetlight illuminated the nonchalant look on Gu Zhou's face: "What else did she ask you?"
-
Huo's house.
Huo Min walked into the house after returning from a social event.
He glanced around.
Finally, I caught sight of that thin figure on the sofa.
My heart suddenly softened.
The black eyes shone with soft brilliance.
Go forward.
She lay on her side on the sofa, her slender eyes looking down at her eyes.
Covering those cold and clear almond-shaped eyes.
Huo Min lifted the edge of the quilt with his fingertips and was about to pull it up a little.
She woke up.
The hazy vision gradually focused.
Huo Min's extremely bony and handsome face was clearly visible.
Mu Yuan curled her lips slightly: "You're back?"
She stretched out her arms.
Huo Min laughed at the subconscious desire to get close.
He hugged her and lifted her up from the sofa.
Mu Yuan naturally wrapped her arms around his neck.
She nuzzled his neck lightly.
"I was sitting here waiting for you, but suddenly I felt sleepy again. I've been feeling sleepy easily lately," she explained.
Huo Min held her steadily and walked towards the stairs.
"Next time if you feel sleepy, go back to bed and sleep. Don't sleep here. You'll catch a cold."
"Okay." His embrace was so warm and his low, magnetic voice was so gentle.
It brought back the sleepiness that had not yet completely dissipated.
She said softly: "Okay..."
She closed her almond-shaped eyes again.
Huo Min carefully placed the person on the bed.
Her breathing was shallow and she didn't open her eyes, obviously falling asleep again.
Huo Min's deep eyes and brows were filled with helplessness.
It seems that I am really sleepy.
He pulled the quilt over her collarbone.
He supported himself on the headboard with one hand, covered her body, and placed a kiss on her forehead.
early morning.
Huo Min finished his workout and took a shower.
And Mu Yuan was still sleeping soundly.
He didn't disturb her.
He closed the door gently.
Go downstairs to the restaurant.
Zhao Keqiong was already sitting in her seat, tasting the warm red bean porridge.
"Good morning, Mom."
Huo Min greeted him and pulled out a chair.
"Come on, Ah Min, the red bean porridge Aunt Zhang made today tastes delicious. You should try it too. Where's Yuanyuan? Is she still awake?"
Zhao Keqiong looked towards the entrance of the restaurant.
I didn’t see Mu Yuan.
Huo Min raised his lips slightly: "She hasn't woken up yet. When she wakes up later, ask Aunt Zhang to heat up a bowl for her as well."
"You haven't woken up yet? Hey, I noticed that Yuanyuan has been feeling sleepy and sleeping longer than usual since she came back from her illness in T Province. Could it be that her body hasn't recovered yet? Let's find a Chinese doctor to take a look."
Huo Min's black eyes paused slightly.
I thought Mu Yuan was feeling sleepy because of the change of seasons.
But when Zhao Keqiong mentioned this.
He also discovered this problem.
He came back not too late last night.
During that time period, she would either read literature or watch TV.
I've never gone to bed so early.
Tension built up inside me.
"Okay, I'll contact the doctor."
Mu Yuan was awakened by the warm touch on her face.
She was bleary-eyed.
He met Huo Min's affectionate black eyes.
"Yuanyuan, wake up and have breakfast. I've contacted a Chinese doctor to take your pulse."
Mu Yuan was still very sleepy, and her voice was filled with doubt: "Traditional Chinese Medicine? Why did you suddenly contact a Traditional Chinese Medicine doctor?"
Huo Min sat by the bed, brushing her hair away from her face with his fingertips. He said in a magnetic voice, "Have you been feeling sleepy since you came back from Province T? I think your illness is causing you to lose energy and blood, so I asked a Chinese doctor to come and treat you."
Mu Yuan pushed himself up with his arms and tried to stand up.
Huo Min immediately reached out and helped her up, then placed a pillow behind her back so she could lean back more comfortably.
Then, his fingertips slid to her slender wrist, passed through her fingers, and interlocked theirs.
Mu Yuan blinked her eyes which seemed to be glued together.
Bewilderedly, he said, "It seems so. I've been feeling sleepy since I came back. I thought it was the changing seasons."
Huo Min's rough fingertips gently stroked her delicate fingers.
He coaxed her in a low voice: "It's okay, let's ask a Chinese doctor to take a look at what's going on. If we need treatment, we'll do it."
