In the dimly lit room, Dong Yu stood beside the bed, silently watching the person who had fallen asleep on the bed.
Guan Nianwei's eyes were tightly closed, and her drooping eyelashes were thick and curled, each one distinct. Her lips were slightly parted, and the breath floated gently out from between her lips and teeth.
Suddenly, she frowned slightly, looking very uncomfortable.
Seeing this, Dong Yu somehow reached out his hand and gently placed it on her forehead, soothing her softly.
Guan Nianwei seemed to be really comforted by her. Her slightly frowned brows relaxed in the blink of an eye, and her sleeping face returned to its previous calm and gentle state.
Guan Nianwei was half asleep, and vaguely felt a very familiar hand on her forehead. The palm was warm, with a gentleness that made people rely on it, and it seemed to have magical power, gently sweeping away the uncomfortable feeling in her body.
She curled the corners of her lips, revealing a satisfied and innocent smile, and muttered again: "Thank you."
Another unconscious thank you.
Dongyu suddenly felt that she was even more adorable.
Dongyu has seen lovely people before, but today she discovered that the cutest person has always been by her side - no one is cuter than her secretary Guan.
It is a kind of cuteness that comes out naturally, without any ulterior motives, and people can't help but smile from the bottom of their hearts when they see it.
Dong Yu lowered her eyelids, smiled silently, took her hand back gently, tucked the quilt for her again, then walked out and closed the door. Every movement she made was as light as a feather falling to the ground, silently.
——Good night, Secretary Guan.
On the second day, the faint morning light quietly seeped into the silent room through the edges of the curtains, gently dispelling the traces of darkness and making the room bright again.
The person lying on the bed slowly opened her eyes, which were naturally cold and clear. She looked at the blurry world with sleepy eyes, then turned her head to look at the window, her smooth and fair face full of surprise from just waking up.
What time is it?
She raised her hands to cover her eyes, and when she put them down again, the sleepiness in her eyes disappeared, and her dark black eyes were clear and bright.
She thought: Probably seven or eight o'clock.
Her sleep and rest schedule is very regular. She has had a biological clock that requires her to go to bed early and get up early since she was a child. Even if she sleeps until she wakes up naturally on weekends, she will wake up naturally within this time range and it has never been shaken.
She sat up slowly and touched her forehead. It wasn't as hot as yesterday and her headache wasn't there anymore, but her nose was still blocked and her throat was still dry.
It was indeed a luxury for her to expect the fever to go away completely by sleeping for a day.
She touched her forehead, and suddenly a vague memory came to her mind - did someone touch her head yesterday?
Is that Mr. Dong?
Or is she dreaming?
She tried hard to recall, but she couldn't find a clear clue from yesterday's memory to confirm her idea. In the end, she could only attribute it to "dreaming".
She could dream about Dongyu doing this and that to her, so it was not uncommon for her to dream about Dongyu touching her head and covering her with a quilt.
Guan Nianwei patted her cheeks, trying to sober herself up. She felt like she was going crazy. She actually liked Dongyu so much that she even hoped in her dreams that she would touch her forehead to comfort her and cover her with a blanket.
Guan Nianwei: I’m really dreaming!
After patting her face, Guan Nianwei sobered up a little. She turned around and searched for her glasses on the bedside table. After putting them on, she looked at the time - seven thirty-five.
Pretty much what she thought.
She couldn't help but look towards the door.
I don’t know if Ms. Dong has woken up, or if she hasn’t slept at all?
Thinking of this, Guan Nianwei got up from the bed, straightened the quilt, and then combed her hair. She used her hands as a comb to randomly rake through her hair, trying to maintain her appearance so as not to leave a messy impression on Dong Yu.
She tidied herself up before opening the door and walking out. The moment she opened the door, she bumped into Dong Yu. Dong Yu stood at the door and looked at her: "Secretary Guan is awake?"
Guan Nianwei adjusted her glasses and then looked at her. She was still wearing the same long dress and pajamas she wore yesterday, and her complexion was as rosy and radiant as ever.
Still so beautiful, still so attractive.
Guan Nianwei avoided her sight without leaving a trace and replied softly, "Yeah, I'm awake." Then she asked, "What is Mr. Dong going to do?"
Dong Yu said, "I'm calling you to get up, eat breakfast and take medicine." He raised his hand to cover her forehead and said thoughtfully, "Well, the fever has subsided a little. Secretary Guan should also rest well today to recuperate."
Guan Nianwei responded obediently: "Okay, please rest assured, President Dong."
Dong Yu's hand on her forehead moved to the top of her head, rubbed it gently twice, and said with satisfaction: "Good boy."
Guan Nianwei felt that was enough.
In the past, she tried hard to be a good child just to get Guan Hui to praise her for being good. Now, she not only wants Guan Hui to praise her, but also wants Dong Yu to praise her. She will be happy if she is praised, and she doesn't ask for anything else.
Guan Nianwei went to brush her teeth and wash her face. Xiao Xiannu had already prepared breakfast. There were two servings of porridge, and her portion was still light and delicious. Xiao Xiannu also boiled her medicine so that she could drink it directly after breakfast. She took good care of them in every aspect.
Guan Nianwei thanked the little fairy slave.
The little fairy slave smiled at her brightly: "This is all my job, you don't have to thank me." Then he turned into a puff of smoke and left.
When Guan Nianwei turned around, she found Dong Yu looking at her with a smile in his eyes, which confused her: "Boss Dong, what's wrong?"
Why are you looking at her like that?
Dongyu scooped up a spoonful of porridge gracefully and said with a faint smile: "Secretary Guan is a very polite child."
It is now, and it is also after falling asleep.
She is truly the cutest person in the world.
Guan Nianwei thought she was going to say something, but she didn’t expect it to be this, so she said calmly: “My mother said that people should be polite.”
As soon as she said this, Dong Yu knew that she didn't remember what happened last night. As expected, he called her in a daze and thanked her in a daze.
It was over. She felt that Secretary Guan’s cuteness had instantly increased to a higher level.
Dong Yu didn't plan to tell her about what happened last night. He nodded slightly as a sign of approval for her family's Ms. Guan Hui, and then said, "Have breakfast. You still need to take medicine later."
Guan Nianwei nodded: "Okay."
Guan Nianwei was bored and sat in the living room watching TV, curled up at one end of the sofa, while Dongyu sat at the other end. She was watching TV, while Dongyu was watching the tablet, each with their own voices.
Dongyu didn't wear headphones, so she turned down the volume of the TV to make it easier for Dongyu to watch videos.
One person and one god, each occupying one end of the sofa, talking to each other. It was at such moments that even with the sound from the outside world, Guan Nianwei still felt it was too quiet, so quiet that it made people feel awkward.
Her eyes fell on the TV screen. She seemed to be watching TV very seriously, but her attention was not there at all. She was hesitating in her heart - she wanted to talk to Dong Yu, but she didn't know what to say.
There was an advertisement for Zhaoyue on TV. It was a skin care product and the slogan was something like "Retain moisture, retain youth, you deserve it."
Guan Nianwei stared at the advertisement intently without blinking.
When Dongyu heard a familiar voice coming from the TV, he slowly raised his head. Sure enough, it was his sister's advertisement. His black and white eyes turned and looked at Guan Nianwei, but he found that she was watching the advertisement without blinking.
On TV, Terutsuki stroked her moist and shiny face, smiled at the camera, and recited the advertising slogan: "Keep the moisture, keep the youth."
"You deserve it."
Guan Nianwei still didn't blink.
Dongyu's eyes moved back and forth between her face and the TV. Finally, he realized something and got up and walked towards the kitchen.
As soon as Dong Yu moved, Guan Nianwei's thoughts were pulled back. Her eyes unconsciously followed her tall and slender back, and a question mark slowly emerged in her head - what is President Dong going to do?
After a while, Dong Yu brought her a glass of ice-cold water, handed it to her and said, "Drink it." Then he sat back in his seat and continued surfing the Internet.
Although Guan Nianwei didn't understand what was going on, she still drank a few sips obediently. The water was very cold, like freshly melted ice, and had no taste.
It was probably because Dongyu was afraid that she was thirsty that he poured water for her. Although she didn't understand why the considerate Dongyu would pour ice water for a patient, she was too embarrassed to ask. It was Dongyu's intention anyway. Maybe Dongyu was just careless for a moment? Wouldn't it embarrass Dongyu if she asked?
So she chose to shut up, silently accept the kindness from the person she liked, and just drink the water slowly.
After a while, she heard Dongyu say, "If Secretary Guan likes it, you can take some home to drink."
Guan Nianwei: “?”
What to bring?
Dongyu read the doubt in her eyes, raised his chin towards the cup she placed on the table, and said calmly: "Dew."
Guan Nianwei: “???”
Is this dew???
Do you fairies really drink dew???
Dong Yu said calmly: "The dew from the Heavenly Palace is good for beauty and skin care. Drinking more can make you look better. It is more useful than those things you see in advertisements."
Guan Nianwei was shocked.
She was shocked that the dew was really effective, and she was also shocked that Dongyu actually misunderstood her being absorbed in watching the advertisement as a desire to retain youth and moisture as the advertisement said.
As a young and beautiful girl in her early twenties, Guan Nianwei couldn't help but applaud Dong Yu in her heart - it was amazing, my princess!
Dong Yu's gaze fell on the screen for less than a minute before he moved back to Guan Nianwei: "Secretary Guan, I forgot to tell you something."
Guan Nianwei actively started a conversation with her: "What's the matter?"
Dongyu: "I plan to let you drive the car."
Guan Nianwei: “?”
This sudden give car behavior?
Dong Yu: "Secretary Guan's home is far from Yunting, and it must be very hard for him to catch the bus every day. I can't drive, and I don't plan to learn to drive, so Secretary Guan can use it."
Guan Nianwei is not only her secretary, but also her driver during working hours. Wouldn't it be a better use of the car to give the car to Guan Nianwei, let her drive home to work every day, and then use it to pick her up and drop her off at different places?
It can also provide convenience for Secretary Guan, so why wouldn't she want to do it?
"This" Guan Nianwei hesitated.
She felt bad about using her boss's car to provide herself with convenience.
Dong Yu seemed to have guessed what she would say next, and said calmly: "There's nothing wrong with it. Cars are meant to be driven."
Guan Nianwei said hesitantly: "But I'm worried that something might happen and damage your car."
Dongyu is the new president of Yunting, with an extraordinary status, so her car is naturally the best. As a secretary who is just starting out and not rich, Guan Nianwei has a good idea of whether she can afford the compensation.
As soon as she finished speaking, Dong Yu immediately raised his eyelids and looked at her. The two looked at each other for a moment, and then Dong Yu slowly said: "As long as Secretary Guan is fine."
Guan Nianwei was stunned for a moment.
Dongyu: "The car is not as important as the secretary."
Another unconscious teasing.
Guan Nianwei stammered in response, forcing herself to look away calmly, then picked up the water on the table and drank it to protect herself from her pounding heart.
She had no doubt that if Dongyu continued to tease her like this, she would really die in her hands.
——As long as nothing unexpected happens to Secretary Guan, that'll be fine.
——The car is not as important as the secretary.
Guan Nianwei closed her eyes tightly, then opened them again, reminding herself to stay calm again - President Dong didn't mean that, she just loved all life! She was a kind and good fairy!
Dongyu noticed that she was a little strange, and couldn't help but ask curiously: "What happened to Secretary Guan?"
Guan Nianwei paused for a moment, trying to calm her voice, and then said, "My throat hurts a little, I want to drink some water."
Dong Yu said "Oh", stood up and said: "I'll go get you some more water."
Guan Nianwei hurriedly stopped her: "No, no, I can go by myself."
Dongyu pushed her back onto the sofa and took the cup from her naturally: "You are a patient, don't move."
Guan Nianwei was held by her shoulders and dared not move, so she had to compromise and accept her fate: "Thank you for your hard work."
Dong Yu took his hand back: "Secretary Guan, you are too polite."
Dong Yu poured her a cup of warm water and explained why he stopped pouring her dew water: "Dew water is cold in nature. You are still sick. One cup a day is enough. Don't drink more. Wait until you recover."
Guan Nianwei certainly had no objection. She was not greedy for exposed body, but she was reluctant to reject Dong Yu's kindness.
Dongyu walked into his room again, took out the car keys and handed them to her, not allowing her to refuse.
Guan Nianwei lowered her eyelids and touched the cold car keys silently. She once again remembered what Dong Yu had just said, "The car is not as important as Secretary Guan." Her mood instantly became subtly better.
"Thank you, Mr. Dong," she said.
Dong Yu looked at her calm and beautiful profile and suddenly smiled: "You're welcome, Secretary Guan."
Guan Nianwei suddenly clenched the car keys in her hand and looked at Dongyu apologetically: "I haven't returned your coat to you yet. It's still drying in the sun."
Dongyu nodded to show that he understood: "It doesn't matter. Secretary Guan can return it to me anytime you want."
"It's okay if you don't return it."
She doesn't need that coat.
Guan Nianwei said hurriedly: "How can I not return it? I can't just take your things casually."
He is indeed a well-educated child.
Dong Yu smiled and said nothing more.
Guan Hui was off work today, so she took the opportunity to clean up the house, sorted out the clothes she had collected yesterday, and took them back to her room and Guan Nianwei's room respectively.
But among the pile of clothes, she found a coat that didn't fit in.
The style of the coat is simple and elegant, the color is jet black, and it is long. It has never appeared in her house before.
She looked at the length and realized that the dress was not suitable for her height and frame. It would not fit her daughter Guan Nianwei's height either.
Whose is this then?
These clothes were posted by Guan Nianwei a few days ago, which means that these clothes were brought back by her daughter.
Guan Hui’s eyes widened instantly!
——Oh! Something’s happening!
Her daughter has grown up and is about to fall in love!
She didn't even bother to figure out whether the dress was for women or men, and was completely immersed in the joyful atmosphere of "her daughter has grown up and is going to fall in love."
But her joy lasted less than three minutes before turning into worry.
She didn't know what kind of person her good daughter was dating - what if he was a bad boy? What if he was like her beastly ex-husband? !
Guan Hui felt that this was not possible. She thought that she needed to have a good talk with Guan Nianwei about matters like love and must not let her be blinded by a bad man!
She put down her clothes, turned around and walked to the altar of Goddess Dongxia, clasped her hands together, closed her eyes and prayed sincerely: "Goddess Dongxia, my Nianwei has been a good child since she was young, and she has suffered a lot with me. If she really falls in love, please bless her to meet someone who truly loves and cares for her."
"Don't let her be kidnapped by bad guys."
"Please, Lady Dongxia."
It was past eleven o'clock in the evening. Guan Nianwei lay on the bed, staring at the ceiling with her eyes open - she couldn't sleep.
It's not because of insomnia, but because of not drinking milk.
She drinks a glass of milk before going to bed every day. Over time, she developed a habit of not being able to sleep well without drinking milk.
She is now at Dongyu's house. She has never asked for milk because she is worried about troubling Dongyu. Besides, she is still taking medicine. For the sake of the efficacy of the medicine, Dongyu probably won't let her touch milk.
But she... wanted to drink.
She is in much better spirits today than yesterday. She no longer falls asleep as soon as she touches the pillow like she did yesterday. She has returned to a normal sleep state, and her normal sleep state cannot be achieved without the assistance of milk.
But she decided to try harder and closed her eyes to hypnotize herself.
As a result, she didn't fall asleep until two in the morning.
She felt like she was going crazy. What would happen if Dongyu knew that she didn't rest well? !
While she was struggling with the dilemma, the door suddenly opened by itself. Bright light leaked in from the living room, stretching the shadow of the person at the door.
Guan Nianwei was startled out of nowhere. As a poor short-sighted person who would immediately lose sight of anyone who was a little far away, she couldn't see clearly who was standing at the door.
She thought it was Dongyu, but she wasn't sure - would Dongyu open her door at two in the morning? If so, what was she doing here?
Then she heard Dongyu's voice: "Secretary Guan, you didn't sleep?"
Upon hearing Dong Yu's voice, Guan Nianwei became more nervous instantly. The feeling of guilt suddenly broke out and tightly wrapped around her heart, making her feel suffocated - what should she do? Dong Yu found out that she didn't rest well!
Guan Nianwei's brain twitched, and she asked back: "It's so late, what do you want to see me for?"
Mr. Dong, entering your subordinate's room at two o'clock in the morning, you will be on the headlines of social news if you are not careful!
Dongyu said calmly, "Come and see if Secretary Guan has covered herself properly with the quilt."
Yes, she just came to see if Secretary Guan had covered herself with the quilt properly, and to see how cute Secretary Guan was.
Guan Nianwei: “…”
This reason... forget it, she didn't dare to refute it.
What the eldest princess said is right. What the eldest princess said is right.
Dongyu walked over to her bed and sat down, then asked, "Why isn't Secretary Guan asleep yet?"
Guan Nianwei didn't get up because Dongyu wouldn't let her. She could only lie down, scratching her hands unconsciously and saying, "I can't sleep..."
Dongyu: "Hmm? Secretary Guan is suffering from insomnia?"
Guan Nianwei said: "Not really."
How can it be called insomnia if a glass of milk can solve the problem?
Dongyu: “What is that?”
Guan Nianwei quietly grabbed the edge of the quilt and pulled it up shyly to cover half of her face. After being silent for several seconds, she said weakly, "I didn't drink the milk."
Dongyu thought he had misheard: "What?"
Because I didn’t drink milk, I haven’t slept yet?
Guan Nianwei looked away and said embarrassedly: "I didn't drink milk, so I couldn't sleep..."
"I have the habit of drinking milk before going to bed, so I can't sleep well without milk." Guan Nianwei said weakly, like a child who had done something wrong, "I'm sorry to make President Dong laugh."
Dong Yu finally understood. Everyone has their own habits, which she could understand, but when she remembered that Guan Nianwei was still taking medicine, she said, "But you are taking medicine."
Guan Nianwei said: "I understand."
That's why she has been holding on until now, trying to use hypnosis to make herself sleep, just to avoid making Dongyu worry and causing her trouble.
Dong Yu looked at her sensible appearance, and for a moment he felt a little complicated. Being sensible is a good thing, but being too sensible can easily lead to self-inflicted harm.
Dong Yu touched her head again: "Wait a minute." Then he took out his cell phone and called the Medical Immortal, asking Guan Nianwei if she could drink milk now.
Medical Immortal: "Oh, milk, yes, you can drink it five hours after taking the medicine."
Guan Nianwei's eyes lit up instantly, and she looked at Dong Yu with anticipation.
After Dongyu hung up the phone, he remembered something else: "But I don't have any milk at home."
Guan Nianwei, who had never opened Dongyu's refrigerator, was instantly filled with despair.
But for Dongyu, Guan Nianwei still curled her lips and smiled at her, saying indifferently: "It's okay, thank you, President Dong, I can sleep, believe me."
Dong Yu was silent, obviously not believing it.
If she could sleep, she wouldn't be awake at two in the morning.
Dongyu then opened their three-foot-tall group chat, and Zhaoyue and the other two were also in it. They were still awake at this time, and were still happily playing the game of grabbing red envelopes to be the lucky king.
[Dong Yu]: Does anyone of you have milk at home?
[Xue Cheng]: Milk? Sister Dongyu, don’t you not drink milk?
[Zhouhua]: Suddenly trying a new world?
[Dongyu]: Secretary Guan wants to drink
[Zhaoyue]:?
Terutsuki glanced at the time on his phone.
Teruyue: "???"
You two are still together at 2 a.m.
Wait, is that what I thought it meant?
