Shen Muzhi closed his eyes, picked up the phone, and dialed the internal line downstairs.
He instructed the kitchen to prepare something light and nourishing and send it to Xiang Zhilan.
“Yes, sir,” the maid replied respectfully.
After hanging up the phone, Butler Chen came downstairs and said to the maid, "Prepare dinner for the master and Miss Xiang."
"The master has already given the instructions." The maid smiled at Butler Chen, and couldn't help but ask with curiosity, "Butler Chen, is our villa about to welcome the lady of the house?"
Butler Chen couldn't help but chuckle, then shook his head and sighed softly. This Miss Xiang probably didn't really want to be the mistress of this mansion.
The maid turned and went into the kitchen to tell the chef Shen Muzhi's instructions.
The chef prepared ginseng chicken soup and two light, appetizing vegetarian dishes, which he had the maid serve.
Then, prepare dinner for Shen Muzhi. Since Shen Muzhi lost so much blood, the chef made her a blood-nourishing soup, and everything else was the same as Xiang Zhilan's.
Butler Chen took it upstairs and delivered it to Shen Muzhi's room.
Since Shen Muzhi couldn't easily get out of bed, Butler Chen placed a small table on the bed and used two pillows to prop him up.
"Does she eat these too?" Shen Muzhi asked, glancing at the dishes.
Butler Chen immediately realized what was happening and reported, "Except for the soup, everything else is the same."
Shen Muzhi picked up a spoon and scooped up some soup.
Butler Chen continued, "Miss Xiang's soup is American ginseng chicken soup, which is very nourishing for women."
Shen Muzhi was finally satisfied and began to eat.
Butler Chen was serving him. After thinking for a moment, he felt he should remind him, so he casually said, "Sir, I saw Afang and the others watching a TV series the other day."
Shen Muzhi ate his meal without interrupting Butler Chen.
Butler Chen continued, "The plot is that two men like the same woman. One often appears in front of the female lead and helps her a lot, while the other silently protects her and secretly cares about everything she does. But in the end, the female lead still ends up with the male lead. Ah Fang and the others said that silently caring is something only the second male lead does, and he's destined to be cannon fodder."
At this point, Butler Chen couldn't help but glance at Shen Muzhi, only to see that his hand holding the chopsticks had stopped moving.
“Although both are efforts, it’s very important whether the girl feels it,” Butler Chen said, adding that his young master always kept his feelings bottled up. He wanted to care for her, but he expressed it so awkwardly. How could this villa ever welcome a mistress if he continued like this?
Shen Muzhi raised his eyes to look at Butler Chen and said coldly, "Tell them to watch less of this kind of mindless drama."
"Yes, sir." Butler Chen sighed inwardly, it seemed his young master's stubborn and arrogant nature was not going to pass.
Shen Muzhi put down his chopsticks and stopped eating. Butler Chen packed up his things and, before leaving, couldn't help but turn back and say, "Sir, I actually think that drama makes a lot of sense."
He left the room immediately after speaking, letting out a long sigh of relief, hoping that his young master had taken his words to heart.
After Butler Chen left, Shen Muzhi lowered his eyes and pondered. Although he disdained to compare himself with Feng Jingxian, Feng Jingxian was indeed much better at putting on a show than him.
This is probably one of the reasons why Xiang Zhilan likes Feng Jingxian.
He knew that Steward Chen had a point, but he couldn't do what Feng Jingxian did.
Shen Muzhi thought for a while, then took the landline and dialed the internal line, instructing the maid, "Go and get another quilt for Miss Xiang."
