Chapter 631: Chapter 630: 630, Xiaobai cooks noodles

The old doctor cautioned, “Don’t touch anything with both hands, especially water, for the next few days. Come to the hospital every other day to change your medicine, and eat lighter food. Also, make sure to rest well. This will aid your wound healing.”

Xiao Yebai listened quietly and finally carried Mo Weiyi out.

Rong An quickly followed.

The man in front of him was tall and upright, Mo Weiyi obediently rested in his arms with both hands lifted. When they reached the car, Xiao Yebai placed her in the front passenger seat and fastened her seat belt.

As he closed the car door, his phone rang.

Zhong Kai said from the other end, “Boss Xiao, I asked the law firm. A female lawyer named Lu Qingtian asked princess to make coffee. When she served it, she accidentally spilled it and scalded her hands. Lu Qingtian has been at the law firm for five years, is unmarried and quite popular there. It seems to be just a simple intentional retaliation.”

“Seems?”

Zhong Kai tensed up by the unemotional deep voice of the man, he quickly explained, “Her family background is simple, and I haven’t found anything unusual. Princess is pretty so maybe it’s out of jealousy…”

“I don’t want to hear this.” Xiao Yebai opened the car door and said, “Take care of it and report back to me later.”

“Understood.” Zhong Kai could only agree.

After hanging up, Xiao Yebai got into the car.

Mo Weiyi spoke, “Xiaobai, tell Rong An to go to the law firm and bring back all my things.”

“Okay.” Xiao Yebai started the car.

“Oh, and, please help me ask for a leave from Attorney Lu.”

With both hands injured like this, she would have difficulty with daily life, let alone continuing her internship.

Xiao Yebai glanced at her sideways, “You want to go back?”

“Of course! That little bitch wants me to leave, right? I’ll do just the opposite of what she wants!”. Mo Weiyi raised her bandaged hands, speaking with righteous indignation.

Xiao Yebai raised an eyebrow, noncommittally drove out.

Shortly after receiving the call, Rong An arrived at the law firm.

He was tall and wore all black, which along with his cold stern expression and muscular build, created a formidable and oppressive presence.

As soon as he entered, the receptionist was frightened into a tremble, “Who are you looking for…”

“I’m here to pick up the princess’s things.”

Just then Yunyun came by and recognized him as the man who had lunch with Mo Weiyi at noon, she immediately said, “Please wait a moment, I will bring Weiyi’s things over.”

Rong An nodded.

Yunyun quickly came back with Mo Weiyi’s bag and coat.

Looking at Rong An’s expressionless face, she cautiously asked, “Is Weiyi okay?”

“She’s not.”

Yunyun: “…”

“It’s serious.”

Yunyun: “…”

“She cried badly.”

Yunyun looked confused, “I’m sorry, it’s all my fault. I initially asked her to send coffee to Sister Lu so that their relationship could improve…”

“Where is Attorney Lu?” Rong An brutally interrupted.

Yunyun could only say, “Attorney Lu has already clocked out.”

Rong An, “Please ask for leave on princess’s behalf. She’s going to be nursing her injuries and won’t be coming in.”

“Okay.” Yunyun immediately agreed.

As Rong An was about to leave, she couldn’t help but chase after him and ask, “Excuse me, sir, are you Weiyi’s boyfriend?”

Rong An turned back, and looked at her in a peculiar way, “She’s a princess, and I’m her bodyguard.”

Having said this, he left.

Yunyun stood there, looking dumbfounded.

Princess?

Bodyguard?

What the hell?

Back at her desk, Lu Qingtian asked her, “Where are the materials you were supposed to find?”

Yunyun replied, “Sister Lu, Weiyi’s bodyguard just came to ask for leave.”

“What bodyguard?” Lu Qingtian frowned.

Yunyun explained, “The man who had lunch with Weiyi at noon, he said he is Weiyi’s bodyguard.”

Lu Qingtian: “…”

“Could Weiyi be the daughter of some wealthy family?” Yunyun whispered, “Her bag looks like it’s a Hermes Himalaya bag, worth several million. And that coat is Burberry, she even wears a diamond ring…”

The more Lu Qingtian listened, the tighter her brow knitted and she had a vague feeling of unease.

She sat there, and on a whim, opened the web page, launched Baidu, and typed in “Mo Weiyi”.

When she read the sensational news headlines and reports that appeared on the screen…

Lu Qingtian stared at the computer screen, her beautiful face turning increasingly pale.

Lu Chenyu quickly received a call from his subordinate.

At the time, he was drinking with Chu Xiuhuang in a private room at their residence. He looked at Chu Xiuhuang after hanging up, “Little Princess won’t be coming.”

“That quick?” Chu Xiuhuang drank a glass of wine, “Oh shit, the princess can’t handle it? She can’t stand working for just a day? I guess I overestimated her.”

“That’s not it.” Lu Chenyu patiently explained, “She’s injured.”

“Injured?” Chu Xiuhuang was surprised, “What happened?”

Lu Chenyu picked up his wine glass, too lazy to explain, “It’s a long story.”

“Damn it!” Chu Xiuhuang put down his glass and immediately called Mo Weiyi but…

“I’m sorry, the number you dialed is temporarily unavailable, please try again later.”

“Fuck!” Chu Xiuhuang glared at Lu Chenyu, “You’ve screwed me! You can’t even take care of a woman! What good are you? Now she’s injured and not even picking up my calls! Dammit, you deserve to be single for life! You’re jinxed!”

Lu Chenyu: “…”

By the time she got back to Lishui Bay Villa, it was already past five in the afternoon.

Upon entering the living room, there was no one at home.

Aunt Zhou probably went to the hospital to bring dinner to Mo Yaoxiong.

Mo Weiyi, looking pitiful, sat on the sofa, looking at her hands wrapped like dumplings, “Xiaobai, I’m hungry.”

Xiao Yebai put down his car keys and walked over, “What do you want to eat?”

Mo Weiyi wrinkled her cute little face, thought for a while, then shook her head, “Nevermind, I ate out for both breakfast and lunch, I don’t want to eat takeout again, let’s wait for Aunt Zhou.”

“Aren’t you hungry?” Xiao Yebai said, “I’ll make you some noodles.”

As soon as he said that, Mo Weiyi was stunned, “Do you know how to make noodles?”

Xiao Yebai spoke casually, “I’ve cooked them before when I was in America.”

Mo Weiyi: “…”

Wasn’t that years ago?

He cooked?

Seemed like it didn’t taste very good.

“Will you eat it?” Xiao Yebai asked her, his tone seemed quite serious.

Mo Weiyi licked her lips.

It was rare that her husband offered to cook for her, she didn’t have the heart to refuse.

“All right then, go ahead and cook.”

She didn’t have high expectations anyway.

Although Xiao Yebai is basically perfect—knowledgeable, handsome, and good at making money.

But cooking is really something that needs both talent and experience.

And she has never seen him cook in all the time they’ve known each other.

The only time he brewed a hangover tea was because Su Wanwan got drunk and stayed at their house.

Xiao Yebai turned on the TV, adjusted it to a variety show for her to watch, and with his long strides, entered the kitchen.

Mo Weiyi sat there, her eyes watching the TV, her ears listening to the sounds coming from the kitchen, suddenly feeling a sense of wonder.

Wow!

Xiaobai was actually cooking noodles for her!

If it had been before, she would have never imagined, always feeling that such a grounded thing didn’t match Xiao Yebai’s aloof and cold image.

Could it be because she was injured?

Was he trying to please her?

With that thought, Mo Weiyi suddenly felt that the burn on her hand didn’t seem to hurt anymore.

After a while, she couldn’t help getting up, wanting to go to the kitchen to see what he looked like cooking.

But suddenly Aunt Zhou’s voice rang out from behind her, “Princess, what… oh my god, princess, what happened to your hands?”

She rushed in with a thermos, “How come the master’s wounds haven’t healed yet and you’re injured again?”

Mo Weiyi had no choice but to say, “I wasn’t careful and burned myself, it’ll be fine in a few days.”

“How could you be so careless?” Aunt Zhou, looking at Mo Weiyi’s hands, bandaged like that, was frightful. She had watched Mo Weiyi grow up from a spoiled princess.

She checked the time and quickly said, “It’s almost six o’clock, Princess, what do you want to eat, I’ll go cook for you.”

“No need.” Mo Weiyi hurriedly interrupted her.

Aunt Zhou: “…”

“Xiaobai is already doing it.”

Aunt Zhou again: “…”

It was too shocking, Xiao Yebai cooking?

The two entered the kitchen, just in time to see Xiao Yebai take a bowl from the cabinet.

He was tall, slim, and the cabinet was high, but he took it with ease, except…

No matter how you looked at it, it felt off. It seemed that such a man really didn’t belong in the kitchen.

Seeing the two, Xiao Yebai said, “It’s almost ready.”

Mo Weiyi blinked her cat-like eyes, “Did you put an egg in it?”

“Yes.”

Mo Weiyi stood there, watching him lift the pot, all the noodles pouring out, then holding the bowl of noodles, he said, “It’s ready to eat.”
