She was completely screwed over.
She then became depressed again.
“I saw that the kitchen was too busy, so there are a few aunties outside our compound who have no job, and they happen to cook pretty good food.”
“Aunt Wang is enough. Bringing more people will only make things more chaotic. Besides, if we take away Aunt Wang’s work like this, she won’t be happy about it,” Sheng Qian refused to let him send more people over.
Long Yunting seemed to understand, and looked up at Sheng Qian with a deep gaze.
Back at the shop, Sheng Qian left Long Yunting alone and followed Wang Lixia into the kitchen to fuss over something.
Sheng Qian returned to her room and took out some medicinal herbs from her spatial storage, then went downstairs to prepare a separate medicinal meal.
"Xiaoqian, what are you cooking? It smells so good!"
"Medicinal cuisine is very beneficial for bones."
Wang Lixia laughed upon hearing this, "It's for that person outside, isn't it?"
“Yes,” Sheng Qian did not deny it.
The medicinal cuisine was indeed prepared for Long Yunting.
"He looks rather lonely sitting outside. Xiaoqian, pour him a cup of tea."
Wang Lixia took the work from Sheng Qian and drove her out.
Sheng Qian brought out a cup of warm tea and handed it to Long Yunting, saying, "We'll be able to eat in a little while."
Long Yunting nodded and took the water Sheng Qian handed him. "I can wait."
"Isn't that patrol team busy?"
"I'm the team leader, so I can arrange my own time."
Sheng Qian knew this was a sinecure, but she didn't expect it to be this sinecure. The so-called patrol team was basically the same as the urban management officers.
"How's your leg?" This time, Sheng Qian didn't dare to touch him casually again.
“I’m almost fully recovered,” Long Yunting said. “I won’t be a burden to you.”
"I didn't say you were a burden..."
Long Yunting looked into her eyes and said earnestly, as if making a vow, "Don't worry that I won't be able to support you after I step down."
"I'm not worried."
"That's good."
Sheng Qian's lips twitched slightly. Couldn't he understand human speech?
never mind.
Considering his help today, she couldn't argue with him any longer.
As lunchtime approached, the number of customers in the clothing store gradually decreased.
Everyone was able to find some free time.
The workers set up a few small tables on the second floor to eat, and Sheng Qian specially found a clean small table for them.
"No need for that, I'll eat with you."
Zhou Ran tugged at Sheng Ting and said to Sheng Qian, "Sheng Qian, it's a bit cramped for the few of us to sit together. Is it alright if you and this person sit at a small table together?"
Then Sheng Ting was dragged away.
“Then let’s sit here and eat,” Sheng Qian could only serve herself her own food and place the medicinal meal in front of him. “This medicinal meal was specially made for you, eat it all.”
Upon hearing that it was specially made for him, Long Yunting couldn't help but look at the woman who had already lowered her head to eat.
Sheng Qian had her hair tied in a ponytail, revealing her jade-like neck skin. Her delicate collarbone was fully exposed to him as she lowered her head to eat, thanks to the thin fabric of her clothes.
Long Yunting stiffly lowered his head and ate the fragrant medicinal food in front of him. The taste instantly awakened all his taste buds, and he wished he could swallow it all in one gulp.
Is this a medicinal meal she made herself?
It must be!
The thought that Sheng Qian had made it for him brought a sweet feeling to Long Yunting's heart.
Seeing that he had eaten his fill, Sheng Qian said, "I made the medicinal meal according to the amount you ate last time. If it's not enough, I'll give you more rice."
"That's enough," Long Yunting realized he had been eating a little too fast, and his face felt a little hot.
The way you wolfed down your food just now must have looked terrible.
I don't know what Sheng Qian thinks of him.
Although he ate quickly, Long Yunting maintained the elegance of a wealthy young master while eating, and even possessed a more composed charm than those refined young men.
Perhaps because of his profession, he exudes a very strong aura.
In fact, Sheng Qian likes people with this kind of aura the most.
But this person was Long Yunting, and she had a connection with him, so she overlooked this discovery.
"Thank you for your help with today's business."
Upon hearing this, Long Yunting understood why Sheng Qian had specially prepared medicinal cuisine for him—it was out of gratitude.
One sentence completely extinguished any sweetness he had felt earlier.
so.
Sheng Qian wasn't accepting him, but rather expressing gratitude.
"The medicinal cuisine was very good. I wonder if I'll have the chance to eat it again next time."
Long Yunting lowered his eyes, his gaze falling on his own legs.
Sheng Qian wanted to say it would only happen once, but seeing his little gesture, she changed her mind and said, "I'll make you a different medicinal diet next time."
"Okay, thank you for your hard work."
After Sheng Qian finished speaking, she wished she could bite off her own tongue.
You've softened your heart again, haven't you?
How could she possibly think that this man would be heartbroken over a pair of legs?
A powerful person like Long Yunting doesn't need to be viewed with pity, nor does he need to be soft-hearted.
Sheng Qian cleared the bowls and chopsticks in front of him, turned around and went into the kitchen. When she came out, she had a bottle of medicine in her hand and gave it to him: "This is medicine to enhance bone growth. Just take it like candy, three pills a day."
Long Yunting took it, and their hands touched.
In just a moment, Long Yunting had the illusion of touching a piece of fine jade.
I don't know why.
Suddenly remembering the feeling of that hand stroking his chest, Long Yunting's chest instantly felt like it was about to explode with heat.
Sheng Qian instantly tightened her grip on her fingertips, and said nonchalantly, "I still have to take care of the clothing store business, so I don't have time to keep you company. I'll see you out."
As she spoke, she pushed him out the door.
It was as if they wanted to drive him away.
Long Yunting's heart was already beating quite fast, and now, with Sheng Qian pushing him around, it was beating even faster!
