Hearing her voice, Jing Xiao looked away from the phone, stood up and walked to the bed, saying warmly: "It's okay. Someone is taking care of the company's affairs. I can be at home with you these two days."
Although he couldn't relieve her physical pain, he could at least provide her with the highest level of companionship in terms of emotional value.
Moreover, he had just read it online. Enthusiastic netizens said that she should pay special attention to her mood in the past few days. If she is in a bad mood, it will aggravate her physical pain.
"I'm much better." Tang Muzhi twitched the corners of her lips and showed him a slightly weak smile.
"Yes." Jing Xiao nodded, then pulled her hand over and intertwined her fingers with his, "You can rest for a while and get up again during lunch."
Tang Muzhi lay on her side, looking at the two people's hands clasped together, and glanced at him out of the corner of her eye, and happened to meet his deep and focused eyes.
These eyes could always make her intoxicated.
"Will we stay at grandma's house until after the new year?" She asked abruptly, with a hint of expectation in her voice.
Jing Xiao was stunned for a moment, then replied: "You can stay here as long as you want."
Although he didn't know why she suddenly asked this, he was willing to leave the choice to her.
Tang Mu Zhi lowered her eyelids and said nothing.
After a while, she raised her eyes to look at him and hesitated: "I...can I discuss something with you first?"
Jing Xiao rubbed her head lovingly and smiled tenderly, "Just say it."
"If...if my mother lets us go to her house for dinner, can you come with me?" She asked tentatively, feeling a little nervous for no reason.
Weng Lu had mentioned this matter countless times. She had always found various reasons to refuse it before, but now that the Chinese New Year was approaching, they still wanted to have a meal together.
Some things have to be faced sooner or later. It doesn't matter if it's earlier or later. If Jing Xiao is willing, her stepfather won't have anything to say.
"I listen to you. Tell me in advance after you have determined the time. After all, I still have to prepare some gifts." Jing Xiao agreed without hesitation. He had no objection to this kind of matter.
Although he had met Weng Lu before, he had never met her stepfather, so it was reasonable for them to have a meal together.
Hearing this, Tang Muzhi immediately raised her lips and smiled, then took the initiative to move closer to his arms, "Thank you."
Her soft body pressed against his strong chest, and Jing Xiao's breathing suddenly became irregular.
He reached out to hug her and whispered in her ear: "There is no need to be so polite between us."
Tang Muzhi didn't say anything anymore, just nestled in his arms and quietly enjoyed a moment of peace.
During lunch, Aunt Man cooks mostly light dishes, which are more suitable for her now.
Although she had no appetite, she still ate half a bowl of rice and drank some soup.
After the meal, Tang Muzhi felt better, so she didn't want to continue lying on the bed, so she sat on the sofa in the living room and watched TV.
Jing Xiao watched it with her at first, but then he went to the study.
"You can't handle even the smallest of things." He scolded the person on the other end of the phone, with a hint of disgust in his tone.
Zhou Chengsi didn't feel angry or dissatisfied with his accusation. He just retorted calmly: "I'm just a vice president. Don't do it all the time. Is this okay as if this company belongs to me?"
Jing Xiao snorted coldly, as if he was too lazy to pay attention to his words, and went straight to the topic: "I will ask Shi Qian to send the information to you later. You try to get it done before tomorrow. The New Year holiday is coming soon, and I don't want these things to be left behind." Go after the new year.”
"Okay, I'll try my best." Zhou Chengsi agreed readily, and then he seemed to have thought of something, and said with a serious face, "Brother, I heard that Qian Manman's matter was caused by Jinghe."
"I heard." He replied calmly, not intending to explain too much.
"What are you going to do about this matter?"
"Don't worry about it." He replied with three words impatiently.
Jing Xiao had already made plans for this matter, but there were so many things going on at the moment that he had no time to take care of her yet.
Zhou Chengsi let out a disappointed sound, and then didn't ask any more questions.
When Jing Xiao finished his work and left the study, the TV in the living room was still playing, but Tang Mu Zhi had already leaned on the sofa and fell asleep.
He walked lightly to her, bent down and picked her up, and walked to the bedroom.
Tang Muzhi felt herself surrounded by a familiar smell. She squinted her eyes slightly and buried her face in his arms, looking for a more comfortable position.
"Are you done?" Her voice was hoarse, with a thick nasal tone, and she looked very well-behaved.
"Yes." Jing Xiao responded softly, carried her into the bedroom, put her on the bed, lowered his head and kissed her forehead.
Tang Muzhi opened her eyes and looked at him, then raised her lips and put her arms around his neck, "Thank you for your hard work."
Her voice was so charming that Jing Xiao's bones went numb.
He frowned and nodded, his voice low and magnetic, full of bewitching power, "It's a bit hard."
Tang Muzhi was stunned for a moment, then realized that his words had other meanings, and quickly released her arms around his neck.
However, Jing Xiao was not willing to let her escape. He leaned directly towards her, bowed his head and kissed her soft lips.
This kiss was lingering and overbearing, as if it wanted to swallow her whole.
After a long time, when Tang Muzhi felt that the oxygen in her lungs was getting less and less, Jing Xiao was finally willing to leave her lips.
His heavy breathing fell on her delicate skin, causing bursts of blush to appear on her cheeks. She pursed her lips tightly and her long eyelashes kept trembling, showing the turbulence in her heart.
Jing Xiao stared at her for a long time, then suddenly turned over and fell beside her, wrapping her in his arms.
"Let's take a nap." After saying that, he closed his dark eyes and rested his chin on her shoulder.
Tang Muzhi blinked and turned to look at him.
The sunlight filtered through the curtains and shone on his handsome face, making his facial features clear and three-dimensional.
The peaks of his eyebrows are very sharp, making people afraid to touch them easily, and there are cyan shadows under his eyelids, making him look a little haggard.
Tang Muzhi stared at him blankly for a few seconds, and then withdrew his gaze, enjoying the time when they hugged each other tightly.
This kind of life is pretty good.
…
City Center Hospital.
Today is the day when Yu Youxi goes to the hospital to change her dressing.
Although she was not worried about her foot injury, she was worried that the wound on her forehead would leave a scar.
So in the past few days, she has been obedient. She has been faithfully carrying out all the things the doctor told her. She has not touched anything that she cannot eat.
Fortunately, the doctor said she was recovering well, so she relaxed a little.
After Yu Youxi finished changing her medicine, she received a call from Zhou Chengsi before she even walked out of the hospital lobby.
Although she found this guy annoying, she still went to sit on a chair nearby and answered the phone.
"Is something wrong?" Her attitude was still lukewarm, with a sense of alienation and strangeness.
Zhou Chengsi on the other end of the phone was stunned for a moment, and then slowly said: "I heard from the people at the hospital that you went to change the dressing today?"
After he said this, Yu Youxi's pupils suddenly shrank, "You are spying on me."
"I'm not that perverted." Zhou Chengsi denied and sighed, "I'm just a car owner, kindly caring about the condition of the injured."
"Oh, then as the perpetrator, when will you be able to repair my car?" She raised her eyebrows and snorted, her tone full of sarcasm.
"I'm not the perpetrator." Zhou Chengsi argued hastily and continued speechlessly, "Your car should have been repaired years ago, and the compensation issue will be resolved in two days."
"I just bought that car. You have to compensate for the loss." Yu Youxi reminded seriously, "In addition, you must guarantee that after the car is repaired, the car keys must be handed over to me."
Now all her cars can't be driven temporarily, except for this one, so she must ensure that the right to use this car will not slip away from her hands.
Hearing this, Zhou Chengsi sneered and couldn't help but joke: "Miss Yu, you just came up and said, you are not short of money, why are you starting to worry about everything now."
Yu Youxi curled her lips, with a bit of arrogance in her tone, and hummed: "Who told you to offend me, so you must pay no less for it."
She is not short of money, but who let this guy treat her like that that night? This is retribution.
"Don't worry, I'm not short of money either." Zhou Chengsi frowned, with a hint of displeasure in his tone, "Okay, I'm still busy, so I won't tell you anymore."
"Who wants to tell you?" Yu Youxi rolled her eyes and mocked mercilessly.
Zhou Chengsi's frown deepened. He really felt that there was no need for him to make this call, so he simply hung up, regardless of whether he was a gentleman or not, and whether he was elegant or not.
Yu Youxi stared at the hung up phone, curled her lips, and cursed secretly: "This guy is really annoying."
However, this guy actually cared about her coming to change her dressing, so he seemed to have some conscience.
Thinking of this, she suddenly couldn't help but smile.
When she left the hall, she saw a figure standing not far away.
She subconsciously wanted to hide away, but because her feet were still not able to move well, she had to stand still and watch the person getting closer and closer to her.
When Fu Jie walked up to her, she subconsciously took a step back and her face became a little ugly.
"What? My brother asked you to take me back again?" She asked angrily, her tone full of ridicule.
After all, it was him who took her back to Yu's house last time and her car couldn't be driven at all. When she thought of this, she felt very angry.
"No." Fu Jie denied, paused, looked at her seriously and added, "If Mr. Yu wants to take you back, he won't let you go that night."
After all, they saw it with their own eyes when she was picked up by Zhou Chengsi that night.
Yu Youxi stared at him with wide eyes and asked displeasedly: "Then what are you doing here?"
