Searching for Treasures in the Clouds

"Ms. Zuo, what is the theme of the event you are attending this time?"

"It's a business exchange meeting, and there will be an award ceremony. Can you help me find a simpler one?"

Zuo Buqiu mainly sells skin care products and cosmetics. The brand she founded, "Qiuzi", was selected as one of the top 50 best brands of the year this year. For this reason, she will attend an award ceremony. However, she will not accept the award. Only those whose brands are in the top ten in terms of influence can receive the award. This ceremony is half an award ceremony and half a business exchange. She went to socialize and also shared her business experience as a special guest.

"Okay, if you want a simple and business style, I recommend this one..." The staff member spread out the five fingers of one hand, walked to a skirt, pointed at it and began to introduce the design.

This skirt looked good to me, so I decided to try it.

After changing into her skirt, she walked up to Yu Ru and asked, "Yu Ru, how is it?"

Yu Ru looked around at her and gave her a thumbs up with a smile, "She looks very pretty, her legs are long and elegant, but it seems like she has trouble walking."

Zuo Buqiu put his hands on his hips and took a few steps forward, saying with a smile, "Indeed, it's a little tight. It looks good, but it's a little inconvenient."

Upon seeing this, the staff immediately brought another skirt and introduced it, "Ms. Zuo, take a look at this one. It has a little elasticity and leaves more room for the body."

Zuo Buqiu looked at the newly-brought-in skirt in front of him and said, "Then I'll try this one."

After trying on three sets in a row, Zuo Buqiu still didn't find a satisfactory skirt. The clothes were troublesome to put on and take off, and she was also tired, so she stopped trying on, sat down next to Yu Ru, and had afternoon tea with her.

The staff prepared several kinds of afternoon tea, including a few small cakes, two cups of black tea with milk, and other things like pudding milkshakes. Yu Ru was eating a bowl of pudding sprinkled with mango cubes. Zuo Buqiu thought it was good and asked, "Yu Ru, is this delicious? What does it taste like?"

Yu Ru took another bite and put it into her stomach to feel it before answering, "It tastes like mango. The mango is so strong that there is only mango in my mouth."

Zuo Buqiu nodded, then turned to the staff and asked, "Xiao Li, what kind of dessert is this? Mango milk pudding? Made of milk?"

"Yes, Miss Zuo." Xiaoli replied with a smile.

Zuo Buqiu picked up a bowl of the same pudding that Yu Ru was eating and smelled it carefully, as if she was confirming something. After a while, she picked up the spoon and ate the pudding.

The taste and texture of the pudding were first-rate. Yu Ru quickly ate the whole bowl of pudding, and Zuo Buqiu also ate half a bowl. However, when she wanted to eat more, she suddenly felt itchy. This feeling made her secretly feel bad, so she quickly put down the pudding and asked her assistant to bring a mirror to look at her face.

Looking closer, she saw some small red spots on her face, and they were increasing at a visible speed. She immediately turned to the photographer and said, "Nana, go find the staff member named Xiaoli and ask her what this pudding is made of? Is there coconut milk?"

"Okay Miss Zuo."

As soon as she finished speaking, Zuo Buqiu felt dizzy and her stomach churned, as if something was about to rush out of her body. She immediately covered her mouth and waved to the people around her.

It was obvious that she was about to vomit, so her assistant hurried to find a container for her to vomit. Yu Ru reached into her bag and pulled out a small red plastic bag. She held the bag in front of Zuo Buqiu to catch her vomit, but before she could open it, she vomited, so she had to catch it with her hands.

In response to her vomiting this time, Yu Ru reached into the plastic bag and shook it, then quickly opened the bag wide to allow her to vomit.

Before Zuo Buqiu lost consciousness, Yu Ru handed her the bag and asked her to vomit. At this moment, the assistant came back with a trash can. She placed the trash can in front of Zuo Buqiu, then sat next to her and patted her back to comfort her. Yu Ru took out tissues from her bag to wipe her face and the parts of her clothes that were stained with vomit.

Zuo Buqiu is allergic to coconut juice, and the allergic reaction is quite serious. When he was young, he accidentally ate coconut juice without checking the allergens and suffered shock once. The ingredients for this mango pudding actually contain a large amount of coconut juice.

The situation was a bit urgent. After Zuo Buqiu stopped vomiting temporarily, Yu Ru and the photographer immediately took her to the hospital for treatment. Her assistant stayed to negotiate with the person in charge of the dress shop. After all, this incident was partly caused by the negligence of the staff.

Zuo Buqiu's vomiting reaction was too severe and she had no strength left in her body, so Yu Ru carried her to the car. Unexpectedly, she vomited again in the short distance before getting on the car, and Yu Ru was covered in vomit, and her hair was also covered in a lot of her vomit.

Zuo Buqiu leaned on Yu Ru's back. Seeing Yu Ru's dirty back, his expression was complicated, feeling uncomfortable, guilty, and a little embarrassed.

……

This time, Zuo Buqiu's allergy did not cause any other life-threatening symptoms except for red spots on his body and vomiting. After taking some medicine prescribed by the hospital, the red spots disappeared a little and he no longer felt like vomiting.

After leaving the hospital, they returned to the car and headed straight home.

"Yu Ru, I'm sorry, I'm really sorry. I made you dirty." Zuo Buqiu said with a very apologetic look.

Yu Ru shook her head and smiled, using sign language to say, "It's okay. I'm sick. There's nothing I can do. Are you feeling better?"

"I'm much better now, thank you." Zuo Buqiu turned around and rummaged through a bag at his feet, and took out a white sweater from it.

She handed the sweater to Yu Ru and said, "Yu Ru, this sweater is new. How about you change it? I made your sweater too dirty."

Yu Ru glanced at her clothes and shook her head, "No, I've already wiped them clean. I'll go home and take a shower. You should change into them. You just vomited, and it will be better if you keep your body clean."

Zuo Buqiu refused to give up and repeatedly persuaded her to change her clothes, but she refused, so she had to change herself. While she was changing her clothes, Yu Ru turned around and looked through her bag with her back to her.

After a moment, Zuo Buqiu said, "Yu Ru, I'm fine."

Yu Ru turned around, holding a bib in her hand. She made this bib herself, imitating a children's tiger-head bib from the late Qing Dynasty and early Republic of China collected in the museum. She made a little change and sewed a layer of herbs into it. She was going to use this thing for herself when riding in the car, because it exudes the fragrance of herbs, which makes people feel comfortable and less uncomfortable. But now seeing Zuo Buqiu in such a bad state, she decided to give it to Zuo Buqiu.

She put the bib on her knees and used sign language to say, "I made this recently. It's new. I put some herbs in it. It smells good. Do you want to wear it? I see you're feeling pretty uncomfortable."

Zuo Buqiu looked at the bib, hesitated for a moment, and finally accepted it. She was really afraid of spitting it out again. If it got on Yu Ru again, she would not be able to face Yu Ru again.

Yu Ru unbuttoned the bib and put it around Zuo Buqiu's neck.

As soon as she put it on, Zuo Buqiu felt a refreshing fragrance lingering around her head. It was very comfortable and refreshing. She turned to look at Yu Ru and smiled, "Yu Ru, it's amazing. It really feels better after smelling it. You are amazing."

Yu Ru smiled and nodded, "It's good that it works. If you don't mind, give me your hand and I'll press a few acupuncture points to relieve dizziness and vomiting."

"This... Yu Ru, this is too much trouble for you. Let's not do it. You must be very tired from running around to take me to the hospital today."

[I have nothing to do anyway, so I can help you pass the time by giving you a massage. I don’t play with my phone in the car because it makes me dizzy.]

These were not just polite words, she really didn't want to play. As soon as she saw the cell phone, she felt dizzy. Her clothes were dirty again, and she didn't dare to lean against Zuo Buqiu's car for fear of getting the smell on her. She could only sit upright. She really couldn't do anything and it was a bit boring.

"Well."
