The next day, when Xiao Wujie woke up, Yun Mo was looking at him with her big, bright eyes, lying by the bedside.
Seeing Xiao Wujie open his eyes and wake up, he quickly spoke:
"Teacher, your wife asked me to tell you that she has some work that needs to be done."
"She will finish dealing with it as soon as possible and will be back to be with you by the afternoon at the latest."
Xiao Wujie nodded and chuckled upon hearing this, then reached out from under the covers and gently rubbed his head.
Yunmo's eyes narrowed slightly, and he felt so happy he wanted to cry.
The teacher really woke up and touched his head. He had been waiting for this for nearly a thousand days and nights, and his wish had finally come true.
Just then, there was a knock on the door, and Leng Ruxue's charming voice came in:
"Handsome little brother, Yunmo, am I coming in?"
Upon learning that Xiao Wujie had woken up, she and Chu Nanfeng immediately rushed to the manor, where she has been staying for the past few days.
Yun Mo carefully helped Xiao Wujie sit up, and Leng Ruxue opened the door and came in after receiving permission.
She sat down on the edge of the bed, looking into Xiao Wujie's eyes, which had regained their usual clear and bright gaze. Her eyes reddened slightly, and she sobbed as she spoke:
"That's great, you're really awake."
"You have no idea what the boss has been like these past two years..."
Before she could finish speaking, Yun Mo interrupted her fiercely: "Hey old woman, the teacher just woke up, everyone's so happy, can you not spoil the fun?"
Leng Ruxue paused instantly, glared at Yun Mo, and unusually did not refute him, nor did she continue speaking.
Xiao Wujie lowered his gaze slightly and softly comforted her:
"I'm sorry to have worried you, Sister Ruxue."
"Don't worry, I'm awake now. I won't let my sister feel guilty and upset anymore."
Even if Leng Ruxue hadn't said anything, he could have guessed the torment and suffering Chu Liyue had endured over the past two years.
What has already happened cannot be reversed, and he will do his best in the days to come to soothe her guilt and pain.
Leng Ruxue pouted and nodded repeatedly.
The handsome younger brother is as understanding and considerate as ever.
"Sister Ruxue, is there something you need that you rushed in about?"
Upon hearing this, Leng Ruxue realized what was happening and quickly raised her phone.
The screen showed Chu Nanfeng's WeChat Moments, where he posted a photo of a lunchbox on his desk.
The caption reads: "The company employees are so lucky. Their girlfriends have already brought them lunch before noon."
Then, intentionally or unintentionally, he tagged Leng Ruxue in the comments section.
Seeing this, Yunmo couldn't help but laugh out loud: "This is clearly telling you to learn from others and deliver food."
Leng Ruxue glared at him fiercely: "Do you think I can't tell?"
“But my husband isn’t the only one working at the company; Sister Wan is there too.”
Her gaze then drifted almost to Xiao Wujie, "And what about the boss..."
Yunmo suddenly realized: "I also want to bring food to Sister Wan."
Leng Ruxue looked at Xiao Wujie, scratched her head, and said, "Pretty little brother, what about you? The key is your body..."
Actually, she could have easily brought an extra meal for Chu Liyue, but the way she brought it and Xiao Wujie delivered it would definitely be different.
For the past two years, Chu Liyue has been all alone, surrounded by self-blame and sadness.
Rumors even circulated within the company that her relationship with Xiao Wujie was in trouble, and that their once legendary romance had secretly broken down.
She thought that now that Xiao Wujie had woken up, Chu Liyue must really want to spend more time with him.
Once Xiao Wujie revealed his true colors, those rumors were dispelled.
Xiao Wujie hesitated slightly, then nodded gently under her expectant yet nervous gaze:
"No problem, I'll go with you."
At 11:30 a.m., bathed in the golden light, three figures walked into the company side by side.
Leng Ruxue was carrying several lunch boxes, and the front desk staff in the lobby nodded respectfully when they saw her.
It was obvious at a glance that the Crown Princess had personally delivered the meal to the Crown Prince. Just as she was about to call to inform him, Leng Ruxue shook her head, signaling her to stop.
Then, with a smile in his eyes, he watched the three of them walk into the company.
Xiao Wujie wore sunglasses, his face was as pale as snow, delicate and perfect. The collar of his champagne-colored shirt was slightly open, and the cuffs were rolled up, revealing half of his smooth and delicate forearm, which was being carefully supported by Yun Mo beside him.
His appearance immediately made him the focus of the entire company.
"Holy crap, that's... I'm not mistaken, am I? That's CEO Chu's boyfriend, right?"
"Yes! Absolutely! He came to the company once before, I've seen him! His looks and demeanor are undeniable!"
"It's been a long time since we've seen him in public. Aren't there rumors that his relationship with President Chu has broken down?"
"Who are you listening to? President Chu dotes on this woman to the extreme. He said their relationship broke down because he was afraid the sweetness of their love would kill you. I believe it."
"That's true. I heard he's not in good health. I guess President Chu is a big fan and wouldn't be willing to give him up."
...
Xiao Wujie had slept for too long and was weak, so he walked unsteadily and slowly, which greatly satisfied the curiosity of the onlookers. Their eager gazes following him were even more passionate than when they looked at their own wives.
After going upstairs, the three went their separate ways. Ai Ruoman knew that Xiao Wujie was coming, so she hurriedly went to greet him.
Xiao Wujie chuckled and handed her an exquisite lunchbox. Even though Lu Zhufeng wasn't there, he hadn't forgotten Ai Ruoman's portion.
With a warm look in her eyes, Ai Ruoman gently patted him as he sat down in Chu Liyue's office, then hurriedly went to call Chu Liyue, who was in a meeting.
Chu Liyue sat at the head of the conference table, her powerful aura making it impossible for anyone to look directly at her. Upon hearing Ai Ruoman's whisper in her ear, her eyes flickered, she quickly finished her work, and immediately turned and left.
The crowd below, who were as honest as quails, looked completely surprised.
"What day is it today? President Chu didn't even yell at anyone..."
"That's really strange. I've already written my self-criticism, so why hasn't President Chu taken any strong action?"
"Yeah, I'm actually a little uneasy that I didn't get scolded by President Chu."

P.S.: I'm awake now, but I'm also exhausted from writing.
Let me explain. I keep writing more, I haven't been lazy, I wanted to write well, but I'm really exhausted from writing.
It was worth it. I saw your enthusiasm and eagerness for more updates, thank you. I'm just sorry for keeping you waiting due to my low productivity.
It's almost over, about a quarter of the way through. The plot is guaranteed to be exciting, with both sweet and heart-wrenching moments (but not as heart-wrenching as this time, and the male and female leads won't have any more conflicts).
In the final stage, I gave it my all, and I thank you all for your hard work and support in reading.
