Chapter 1329: Chapter 1330: Of Course I'm Worried About You
The office suddenly became spacious, and Rong Yan's wrist was still being held. She twisted it but couldn't get free, and was pulled over to the sofa area for receiving guests.
Her belongings were also taken by someone who naturally asked her, “What did you make? Did you make it yourself?”
“Yep, I made it. Let me think. Century egg and lean pork congee, stir-fried baby bok choy, fish-flavored eggplant, scrambled eggs with tomato, plus a portion of pigeon soup I brought back this afternoon. The soup from that place is particularly tasty, so I packed some for you to bring back. I didn't expect that by the time I returned, you still hadn't.”
So the soup also tragically cooled down.
She had specially reheated it in a clay pot before taking it out.
Li Shengxiao released her wrist and placed the deep brown wooden bento box on the table, corners of his mouth slightly lifted, saying, “Did Gu Ming call you?”
Boss guessed it right!
Rong Yan had promised Gu Ming she wouldn't betray him, so she decisively denied, “No, I saw you were working so late and worried you might be hungry, so I made some light food to bring over. Why would Assistant Gu call me? Did you get so busy that you forgot to eat dinner again?”
She bit back swiftly, precisely, and fiercely as if she was completely clueless. Li Shengxiao was indeed momentarily fooled, his lips pressed together as he spoke in a low voice, “A meeting ended very late, and I didn't have time to eat.”
Gu Ming had tattled to her, and Rong Yan knew it was more than him not having the time for dinner; he hadn't eaten breakfast or lunch either! Hearing his casual mention of being busy, she almost blurted out the truth spontaneously. But when she saw the unconcealable fatigue on his face, she swallowed back the flurry of words and said instead, “No matter how busy you are, you can't forget to eat. You have a bad stomach, and if you keep forgetting to eat, it'll only get worse. Your body isn't made of steel. I know you are busy at work, but no matter how busy, I hope you take care of your health. Don't work at the expense of it. Otherwise, I'll feel distressed.”
After saying that, she quietly added, “And Duidui, Mrs. Lin, we would all feel distressed.”
Li Shengxiao's deep eyes stirred with a storm, his voice as rich and husky as a cello, grabbing her arm with one hand, “Yanyan, Duidui and my mom come after you because you worry about me the most.”
She didn't say that.
“We're all worried about you!”
He was insistent on getting an answer, “What about you?”
Rong Yan's heartbeat accelerated under his gaze, nearly leaping out of her chest as she met his eyes, “I'm distressed, who would feel for their boyfriend if not me?”
The next second, she was pulled into a warm embrace…
Later, she found out the culprit had already opened the bento she had brought and picked up the chopsticks.
Rong Yan instructed, “The fish-flavored eggplant and century egg with lean pork congee taste good; I've tried both of these dishes. The scrambled eggs with tomato were a bit of a failure, just make do with a little. Or simply don't eat that, just have the fish-flavored eggplant and century egg with lean pork congee and some soup; it should be filling enough.”
She watched the handsome man pick up a piece of eggplant and try some tomato, his thin lips suddenly curved up, looking at her, “All not bad. Quite delicious. It's an improvement over before.”
Rong Yan raised an eyebrow, “Was what I made before really that bad?”
