Chapter 55 Miss Ye, you've worked hard.
Chen Ci was stunned: "Oh no, Boss is serious! I'm not talking to you anymore, bro, I'm going to get the medicine!"
After finishing his sentence, Chen Ci hung up the phone and ran to the research lab.
Chen Chu was stunned for a while, but he still couldn't figure out the reason. He went to the study, turned on the computer, and was ready to listen to his boss's instructions at any time.
Between the boss and his younger brother, Chen Chu naturally chose the boss.
Unless he doesn't want to live anymore.
...
After dinner, Lin Feiyan went back to his study, while Ye Qingning sat on the sofa with half a watermelon in her arms, watching TV.
At 8:50, an uninvited guest burst into the house.
Chen Ci rushed in, dressed in a maroon pajamas and carrying a blue porcelain vase in both hands.
Upon seeing Ye Qingning, he greeted her crisply, "Sister-in-law, where is she?"
Ye Qingning was stunned for a moment, then belatedly realized that Chen Ci was talking to her, and the question should naturally be about Lin Feiyan.
So she pointed to the study.
Chen Ci then jogged into the study.
He walked out a moment later, clutching his chest, and sat down on the sofa with a swagger, leaning his head against the cushions and panting: "Luckily I made it in time, otherwise I would have been in big trouble."
Ye Qingning was still caught up in the memory of him calling her "sister-in-law" and was momentarily stunned.
She never expected that anyone other than Lin Younan would call her sister-in-law.
After a moment, Chen Ci regained his composure and probably realized his slip of the tongue. He sat up straight and said properly, "Miss Ye is eating watermelon."
Ye Qingning chuckled awkwardly, "Um... do you want some? There's another piece in the kitchen, I'll go get it for you."
Sure enough, she couldn't possibly be Chen Ci's sister-in-law.
Chen Ci should have reserved that "sister-in-law" title for the future female lead.
After saying that, she put her watermelon on the coffee table, went back to the kitchen, brought out the other half, and handed it to Chen Ci: "Eat it, it's very sweet."
Chen Ci paused for a moment, took the watermelon, scooped out a spoonful, and tasted it: "Mmm, it's really sweet. Thank you, Miss Ye."
"You're too kind." Ye Qingning continued to sit cross-legged, obediently eating her melon. "I haven't even thanked you for helping me with my medical treatment last time."
"Hey, it's no big deal."
Chen Ci's gaze inadvertently fell on Ye Qingning's left wrist, where he saw some shocking red marks...
So this medicine for treating ligature marks... is for Miss Ye?
But who was so heartless as to do this to a young girl's hands?
His professional instincts kicked in, and he blurted out, "How did you get that injury on your wrist?"
Ye Qingning subconsciously hid her hand behind the watermelon: "It's nothing, I just got it on by accident."
Seeing her evasive gaze, Chen Ci understood immediately.
Could this be the eldest brother's private pleasure?
So last time you scared that little girl so much she got a fever?
What kind of twisted sense of humor is this!
He glanced resentfully at the study, then looked at Ye Qingning with sympathy: "Miss Ye, you've worked hard. I'll make some tonic for you and send it over later."
Ye Qingning assumed he was going to treat her wrist, and her eyes lit up with joy: "Really? Thank you, Dr. Chen. I feel relieved with your medicine."
This way, you don't have to worry about scars. It's really inconvenient for actors to have noticeable scars.
Chen Chu nodded seriously: "Sure, I'll make it for you when we get back."
...
So when Lin Feiyan came out of the study with the ointment, he saw Ye Qingning and Chen Ci sitting on the sofa, happily eating watermelon.
The TV seemed to be showing a comedy, and the two of them were laughing so hard they were doubled over, a scene that suddenly made him feel uneasy.
"Chen Ci," he said coolly, "You seem to have a lot of free time today?"
