Lin Xi murmured, "He needs my care."
Thinking about it carefully, it was always Fu Jingyao who was making the sacrifices. He prepared everything at home and delivered things to and from get off work. She just sat back and did nothing.
Aunt Wu nodded emphatically, "That's right, and the eldest young master has a very difficult-to-treat illness, and he is extremely sensitive."
She wiped away her tears, "The young master is so pitiful, so very pitiful..."
As Wu Ma spoke, she began to cry. Lin Xi patted her back and asked, "What illness is it? I know a little about traditional Chinese medicine. Tell me in detail."
Aunt Wu shook her head and sighed, looking as if Fu Jingyao was about to die. She found it hard to speak, "This illness... is very difficult to treat. The young master has seen many doctors, but none of them have been able to help."
Lin Xi was surprised, "It's that serious? I didn't see it that way."
After a moment of silence, Aunt Wu said, "As for that matter, young mistress, you'll understand once you get to know the eldest young master better, preferably through intimate contact."
Lin Xi was completely confused. "What the heck?"
When she asked again, Aunt Wu shook her head and sighed, only reminding her, "Alas, the eldest young master has been all alone since he was a child, and now he is sick. He is so pitiful. Young Madam, you must take better care of him."
Lin Xi nodded blankly, "I'll do my best, don't worry."
She will definitely find out the cause of Fu Jingyao's illness and then cure him.
At that moment, the elevator doors opened, and Fu Jingyao slowly stepped out. The two people on the sofa looked strange.
Lin Xi sat there blankly, as if she had lost her soul.
Wu Ma looked like she wanted to say something but hesitated. Then she saw his eyes widen suddenly and he shook Lin Xi vigorously.
"Young Master! You're here!!"
Lin Xi snapped back to reality. "You're up?"
"Hmm." Fu Jingyao walked towards her. "What were you talking about with Aunt Wu?"
Wu Ma's heart jumped instantly. "Haha, she didn't say anything. The young mistress and I were discussing what to have for breakfast."
She frantically winked at Lin Xi, who nodded. "That's right."
Fu Jingyao had a bad feeling. "Is that all?"
Lin Xi grabbed his wrist, "Eat, eat first, the steamed buns this morning were delicious..."
Fu Jingyao's gaze fell on their intertwined hands, and a slight smile appeared on his lips as Xixi took his hand.
She took his hand...
Fu Jingyao grasped her palm in return. "Okay, let's eat."
Aunt Wu patted her chest, terrified.
She jumped off the sofa, clutching her waist, and hopped towards the door.
I'd better get out of here, lest the young master notice something amiss and I end up like Butler Liu, with my bonus deducted.
The rest is up to the young mistress. Good luck!
At the dining table, Lin Xi picked up a small steamed bun, recalling Wu Ma's words: to take good care of the eldest young master.
She quietly placed the steamed buns into Fu Jingyao's bowl, saying, "Eat more, you've lost weight recently."
Fu Jingyao was thrilled. It was the first time Xixi had served him food, and these were the sweetest xiaolongbao he had ever eaten.
After finishing breakfast, Lin Xi picked up her small bag and went out. Fu Jingyao walked beside her as usual. She secretly glanced at the person next to her and unconsciously slowed down her pace.
The man suddenly stopped, and Lin Xi almost bumped into his back. "Why did you stop?"
"We're here." Fu Jingyao turned around, looking at her with a half-smile. "Xixi, since breakfast started, you've secretly glanced at me twenty-five times. What were you looking at?"
Lin Xi lowered her head and remained silent, observing whether you were ill.
Show care for the young master, show him love...
Lin Xi blurted out, "Because you're beautiful."
Fu Jingyao's lips curled up. "If you want to see, then look."
Lin Xi opened the car door and got in, "Mmm."
Fu Jingyao couldn't hide the smile in his eyes. He looked at her twenty-five times in just half an hour, averaging once a minute. Xixi was becoming more and more inseparable from him.
The black car stopped at the intersection of the antique street. The person next to him didn't move. Fu Jingyao reminded him, "Xixi."
"Huh? Oh." Lin Xi patted his shoulder and earnestly instructed, "Relax at work, don't overwork yourself, take good care of your health, and come to me if you can't handle anything."
Fu Jingyao's eyes lit up. Xi Xi actually cared about him, for the first time ever!
Although it's unclear what Wu Ma and Xi Xi said, everything is moving in a positive direction.
This month, Wu Ma's bonus doubled.
"I'm leaving, bye-bye."
As Lin Xi opened the car door and headed to the antique street, Wu Ma's words kept echoing in her mind.
What exactly is wrong with Fu Jingyao?
Traditional Chinese medicine is profound and extensive; she has learned a little bit about it, but is completely ignorant of certain aspects.
Frequent contact... What diseases require close contact?
Three months after Master Xuankong died, Lin Xi thought of him for the first time.
Master, your disciple needs you. Please revive me quickly.
Qian Fugui stood at the door and waved, "Good morning, Master."
Lin Xi snapped out of her daze and said, "Good morning, Fugui."
She glanced at the fortune-telling hall. "Ji Heng isn't here again?"
Qian Fugui opened his phone. "Ji Heng said he would come yesterday. I called him, but the line was always busy. I guess something's wrong."
"Never mind him." Lin Xi stepped through the door, and her phone rang. She picked it up and saw that it was a video call from Ji Heng.
As soon as the call connected, a piercing scream rang out.
"Aaaaaah!! Boss! Help!! I'm going to die! I'm really going to die!!"
In the video, Ji Heng is running wildly, and it looks like something is chasing him.
"Hehehe..."
The voice was unmistakably that of a zombie. Lin Xi held her phone away from the sound. "It's another white zombie. Don't run around. The more you run, the more excited the zombies get. You learned how to fight zombies yesterday. Just pull out your peach wood sword and go for it. Don't be a coward."
"No!" Ji Heng screamed as he ran, "Ahhh! Boss, come save me! It's not just one! There are so many!!"
"Ho ho ho, ho ho ho..."
