The CEO's office has a sofa on the left, a large and long cabinet on the right, and a desk in the middle piled high with documents.
Lin Xi looked around and found that there was a small room at the very back, which she hadn't noticed last time she came.
Fu Jingyao put down the food he was holding and walked up behind her. "Xixi?"
"Oh, you're here." Lin Xi turned around and bumped into the man's arms. She covered her nose and fell backward. "Oops, when did you stand behind me?"
Fu Jingyao supported her waist, a hint of worry flashing in his eyes, "I'm sorry, does it hurt?"
"It's alright, let's eat quickly." Lin Xi steadied herself and left his embrace.
"Wait." The man grabbed her wrist, turned and pushed open the door behind him. "I used to work overtime at the company late into the night, and sometimes I was too lazy to go home, so I would just sleep here for the night."
"Xixi, check it out."
Linxi turned around.
The room wasn't big, and there wasn't much else in it: a bed that was 1.5 meters wide, a quilt, and a pillow.
She didn't understand, what kind of check is required?
Since Fu Jingyao asked, Lin Xi carefully looked around and said, "The feng shui is fine, the energy field is fine, and it's fine to sleep in there. Inspection complete."
Fu Jingyao was amused by her reaction. "Xixi, you're so cute."
Lin Xi didn't know what to say, so she nodded haphazardly, "Okay, let's eat."
Fu Jingyao closed the door. "Okay."
I thought Xixi had misunderstood something and came to the company to check up on me, but it turned out she just came to deliver food.
Xixi's original intention remains unchanged; all she wants to do is cook.
Fu Jingyao brought up the food, "Xixi, did you make this yourself?"
"No." Lin Xi bit her lip and answered truthfully, "What I made is inedible, it's poisonous."
Back then, she made a bowl of black fried rice with eggs. Xiao Jin and Xiao Mu took a bite and were dizzy for three days.
From then on, Xiao Mu forbade her from entering the kitchen and took over the cooking duties.
Lin Xi coughed lightly, "It was made by Aunt Wu. Eating her food won't cause poisoning. You've lost weight recently, so eat more."
Fu Jingyao smiled; Xixi was concerned about him again.
He opened the bag, set out the bowls and chopsticks, and said, "Thank you for your hard work, let's eat first."
Lin Xi quickly stood up. "Working must be tiring. You sit down, I'll do it."
Fu Jingyao didn't stop, "You've worked hard delivering the food, leave this little thing to me."
One by one, the lids were opened, and the lunchboxes were neatly arranged in front of us, their fragrant aroma whetting our appetites.
Lin Xi picked up her chopsticks. "Aunt Wu's cooking is still superb. It looks delicious."
Fu Jingyao picked up a piece of spare rib for her, his gaze extremely tender.
The food tasted even better when I was with Xixi.
Aunt Wu is doing very well lately; her bonus will double next month.
After finishing her meal, Lin Xi rubbed her stomach. "I'm feeling sleepy after eating. I'll lie down for a while before going home."
Fu Jingyao sat next to her, flipping through documents. "You can lie down for as long as you want, and you can come anytime you want in the future."
"Hmm." Lin Xi closed her eyes and took a nap. In her drowsy state, she suddenly sat up. "What time is it?"
"It's three o'clock, still early." Fu Jingyao put down the documents. "Sleep a little longer, we'll go home together later."
Lin Xi yawned, then suddenly remembered that she hadn't looked at the things Butler Liu had given her. She shook her head and said, "I have something to do, so I'll go back now."
Butler Liu specifically instructed that only one person should watch over it, so while Fu Jingyao was at the company, he quickly went home to take a look.
Before the man could respond, Lin Xi put on her shoes and rushed to the door. As soon as she pushed the door open, two familiar people were standing in front of her.
When Chen Zhao and Qi Wenye saw her come out, they shouted in unison, "Good afternoon, Madam!!"
This shout startled everyone on the floor, and countless eyes fell on her. Lin Xi covered her face in embarrassment; these two had learned the essence of Butler Liu's teachings.
She reminded him, "Keep your voice down."
Chen Zhao and Qi Wenye flashed the same smile, their eight white teeth shining brightly.
"Madam, I'll definitely do it next time."
There will be a next time?
Lin Xi ignored them and ran off in a hurry, otherwise she would be surrounded by onlookers again.
It was 3:30 pm when she returned to the Imperial Garden. She took out the pink bag that Butler Liu had given her.
Wu Ma wasn't at the villa, the five little elves were playing in the vegetable garden, and Fu Jingyao was at the company—it was just the right time.
Lin Xi sat on the bed, lifted the bottom of the bag, and poured out all the contents.
A mirror, a white box, and a book the size of a palm.
Is this the medicine that Steward Liu was talking about?
She picked up the mirror first to observe, and the thing in front of her suddenly became larger; it turned out to be a magnifying glass.
Why do we need a magnifying glass to treat illnesses?
Lin Xi picked up the small book from the bed, opened the first page, and saw words smaller than ants. She squinted, but still couldn't see the words clearly.
Oh, she understood. So that's what the magnifying glass is for—to magnify the words on the small book.
What secret recipe is so mysterious that it requires a magnifying glass?
Lin Xi picked up a magnifying glass in one hand and held the small book in the other, struggling to read a few pages.
ah? ! !
She froze on the spot, as if a new world had opened up before her.
Butler Liu was indeed professional; the book was written in great detail, including how to diagnose, how to treat, how much medication to use, and so on.
However, the illness being treated was kidney deficiency and yang deficiency, which meant that Fu Jingyao was not up to the task!
Holy crap! He actually got this disease!
Lin Xi's gaze was blank.
No wonder they slept in separate rooms after getting married. Even when Fu Jingyao hugged her, he didn't react much and didn't do anything out of line. Even his kisses were brief and fleeting.
After they got their marriage certificate, Butler Liu specially sent a lot of kidney-tonifying herbs, and Fu Jingyao's face darkened at the time.
No wonder he was afraid she would dislike him; it turns out he had a hidden illness!
Lin Xi remembered her master's words.
My disciple, you must complete the union of yin and yang with Fu Jingyao.
If the people aren't capable, how can we accomplish this?
Lin Xi was stunned for a few minutes before starting to study the text again, which contained instructions on how to treat the condition.
The first step is to determine the severity of the illness: is it completely ineffective, or only partially ineffective?
Lin Xi's face scrunched up in a frown. How could she be sure about this?
She wanted to try it herself to see if it would work!
How do I test this thing?
My master didn't teach me!
At this moment, Lin Xi missed her master, who had been dead for several months, so much that she wanted to shout it out.
Resurrect, my master!
Fortunately, Butler Liu was extremely professional and thoughtfully wrote down various methods.
Lin Xiguang felt embarrassed just looking at it.
Butler Liu is quite capable; he reminded Fu Jingyao not to see it and even got a magnifying glass.
This book is not suitable for children; I can't continue reading it.
She put down her little book and snuggled into bed to calm herself down.
Time passed second by second. Fu Jingyao walked into the room and saw this scene: Xixi was huddled under the covers, trembling.
A box of white medicine lay on the bed, while a mirror and a book lay scattered on the floor.
What happened to Xixi? Is she hurt?
Fu Jingyao carefully picked up the things from the ground. "Xixi, are you alright?"
Lin Xi sat up with a jolt, her heart pounding wildly.
Holy crap! Fu Jingyao is back!
