Chapter 656
Ye Junqing had the housekeeper prepare breakfast to be taken in the car and then personally drove her to work.
Once in the car, he opened the small table, positioned the breakfast on it, and suggested she start eating. Meanwhile, he checked his email on his phone. Fu Zhuo didn’t dare to come back. Recently, a secretary around her forties, who was particularly steady and efficient, had been accompanying Ye Junqing.
In the car, the secretary listed the day’s work schedule to Ye Junqing. While eating her breakfast, she overheard the conversation. After listening, she couldn’t resist commenting, “You seem very busy today; your schedule is packed from morning till evening.”
After replying to his email, Ye Junqing looked up and saw the concern in her eyes. For a while, he couldn’t bear to look away. After holding eye contact for three seconds, she shyly looked away and continued to eat her breakfast.
“Eat slowly, you wouldn’t want to burn yourself.”
Ye Junqing’s warning came true as she did burn herself. She gasped as the sensation struck her and muttered under her breath, “You’re such a jinx.”
...
“Come here, let me blow on it for you.”
Before she could react, she was pulled towards him. He bent down and gently blew air onto her mouth. Her face turned inexplicably red, and she pushed him away, “What are you doing? You’re taking advantage of me just because I got burnt.”
Ye Junqing laughed softly watching her gasp in irritation, it made him feel unexpectedly good. He told her, “Let’s have dinner together tonight.”
“Don’t you have a dinner party tonight?” His secretary had just updated him on his work schedule, which included a dinner appointment with the head of a certain corporation.
Ye Junqing replied succinctly, “Tell Wang, to cancel tonight’s meal and book a candlelight dinner.” noveldrama
“No, you should go to your dinner party. I am going to the hospital to have dinner with my parents. Also, the doctor says my father can be discharged from the hospital and continue to recuperate at home. There’s no need to stay in the hospital any longer. Can I have my parents staying at the mansion? And I want to employ a private doctor to take care of my father. Doctor Fu recommended Doctor Chang to me, I’ve been in contact with her already. She agreed to be my father’s private physician. I’ve hired her for six months. Although my father has undergone surgery, it’s going to take at least six months to a year for a full recovery.”
“Let me know when he is going to be discharged. I will have Xiao Yun pick him up. No, I will pick him up personally. Call me when he’s discharged, I will make the housekeeper prepare a room on the first floor. Climbing the stairs to the upper floor won’t be suitable for our father.”
While eating her breakfast, she shook her head, “No need, my father suggested me to focus on my work and not request leave. He said he and your uncle are old friends. Your uncle originally wanted my father to stay at his house, but I didn’t think it was appropriate. It seems disrespectful for a daughter to send her father to someone else’s house when she is in the same city. So your uncle decided to pick my parents from the hospital himself and took them to our mansion.”
Thinking about his uncle, Ye Junqing felt a bit irritated. His uncle treats his father-in-law better than his own nephew!
“Do our father and your uncle often interact? Why have I never heard you mention this before?”
She took a sip of her milk and replied, “Your uncle used to often come to the island to go fishing with my father. But I didn’t know he was your uncle, he never told me his name, he always asked me to call him ‘Uncle’. When I was in university, he often brought me fruits and food. Once when I ran into some trouble and called my parents, they were extremely worried. But your uncle was who came to the school and solved the issue for me.”
