Herbal sachets.

Her husband was having trouble adjusting to the local climate, so she went to the pharmacy and bought some herbal sachets.

I haven't hung it in my husband's bedroom yet.

Thinking it over, Zhou Yi became more awake, rubbed her eyes, and quietly lifted the blanket to sit up.

When I got back in the evening, I was in a hurry to take Yuyu to wash up and play with her. After that, I tidied her up and put her to sleep before going out with my brother.

She only remembered this now.

As Zhou Yi got up, the little guy moved along with her, clearly disturbed by the noise.

Zhou Yi stopped what she was doing, gently patted the little one's back until the little one fell soundly asleep, then got out of bed, covered the little one with a blanket, and quietly left the bedroom.

It was quiet all around, without a sound; it seemed everyone was asleep.

However, the lights in the hallway outside were still on, as were the lights in the living room.

Zhou Yi looked towards the study, a hint of doubt in her eyes. Hasn't the master rested yet?

should be.

Otherwise, the lights in the corridor wouldn't be on.

Upon entering the living room, I immediately noticed the medicine placed on the coffee table.

There were medicines prescribed at the hospital and medicines bought at the pharmacy, all on the coffee table.

Zhou Yi looked at the medicine bag and then at the medicine inside; it hadn't been touched at all.

His brows furrowed slightly.

Did you forget to take your medicine, sir?

Zhou Yi took out the medicine box prescribed by the hospital and looked at the usage and dosage instructions: three times a day, after meals.

She and her husband had dinner and then came straight home. Her husband went to his study to work.

The gentleman forgot to take his medicine.

Thinking of this, Zhou Yi looked in the direction of the study, then went to the bar, took out a glass, washed it, poured a glass of warm water, and then sorted out the medicines from the medicine box one by one, put them on a clean napkin, placed them on a tray, and carried it to the outside of the study.

"Knock knock."

She knocked lightly on the door.

Two soft sounds rang out in the quiet night, clearly reaching the ears of the person sitting in the office chair in the study.

Wenren Chen is in a meeting.

The video shows a huge conference room, where the company's senior executives are seated.

However, most of these executives are foreigners, and very few are from China.

He listened to a fluent English report coming from inside, his eyes deep and unwavering.

but.

When the sudden knocking came, his eyes flickered slightly, his deep gaze falling on the closed door.

In the video, the English presentation inside stopped abruptly as the knocking sound came through the door.

The study fell into complete silence.

Wenren Chen stared at the door for a few moments, then opened his mouth and said, "Come in."

Zhou Yi smiled when she heard the voice coming from inside.

Although she felt that her husband should be in the study, she wasn't entirely sure. Now, hearing his voice, she was certain.

He gently opened the door, holding the doorknob, and came in carrying water and medicine.

Wenren Chen stared at the door, and as it opened, the person outside came into view.

The depth in his eyes was different now.

The atmosphere in the study seemed to have changed as well.

As soon as Zhou Yi opened the door, she saw the person sitting behind the desk inside. His eyes crinkled into a smile as he looked at her: "Sir, you didn't take your medicine tonight, so I brought it to you."

As she spoke, she brought over water and medicine, placed the tray on the table, put the water on the tabletop, and placed the medicine next to the water.

Wenren Chen stared at the smiling woman. She was no longer wearing the previous sundress, but rather a proper nightgown. It seemed she had just gotten out of bed; her nightgown was a little wrinkled, and the collar was slightly crooked, vaguely revealing one of her collarbones.

She usually wears her hair up, but she lets it down when she goes to sleep. At this moment, her black hair is loose and cascading down her back, with some strands hanging down in front of her and landing on her face, scratching her cheeks under the light.

Her attire wasn't particularly strange; it was quite normal. Nor was her face exceptionally beautiful or captivating. But strangely, on this night, in this moment of silence, she possessed an allure.

That face is exceptionally alluring.

"Ah."

A low, monosyllable escaped from his throat, and this voice was clearly different from the one he had used during the previous meeting.

In the conference room, the executives, who had been looking down, couldn't help but prick up their ears at the sound.

With her well-defined knuckles, Zhou Yi picked up the medicine and water glass, and looked at them from her desk.

Seeing Wenren Chen take the medicine with her own eyes, she felt relieved.

After taking the medicine and drinking most of the water in his glass, he put the glass down.

Zhou Yi said, "Sir, you're busy. I'll go hang up the herbal sachet for you."

"I forgot before, I'll go hang it up for you now."

As she spoke, Zhou Yi placed the water glass and napkin on the tray and left.

My husband is very busy, working overtime so late. It must be something that happened this afternoon that caused the delay.

I hope you can finish your work soon and get some rest.

"I feel like eating something."

Zhou Yi had only taken two steps when a deep, magnetic voice came from behind him.

She paused, then turned around, her voice concerned: "Sir, are you hungry?"

Zhou Yi knows that it's easy to get hungry when working overtime late at night.

He gazed at her for a long while, then said, "Perhaps."

Zhou Yi immediately said, "What would you like to eat? I'll make it."

"It will be all right."

Zhou Yi thought for a moment and said, "I'll go out and check the time. I don't know if the supermarket is closed yet. If it's not closed, I'll go buy some groceries."

After saying that, she turned and left very quickly.

Wenren Chen watched the person leave so quickly. Her long, curly hair, like seaweed, brushed past his eyes, and the depth in her eyes was like spilled ink, instantly becoming chillingly dark.

Inside the computer, in the conference room, everyone was straining to hear what was happening, their lowered faces displaying a complex array of emotions.

It was the middle of the night, and it was the voice of a young girl.

Take medicine, hang sachets of medicinal herbs, and eat whatever you want when you're hungry.

Such simple words, yet they always evoke all sorts of fantasies when heard.

Indeed, this protagonist is no ordinary person; he is Wenren Chen.

The president of Tiansheng, who is never seen with a woman in his life.

As Zhou Yi left, the study door closed.

It became quiet here; there wasn't a sound.

Wenren Chen stared at the closed door for a long time before turning his gaze away and saying, "That's enough for today."

After speaking, he turned off the video and ended the meeting.

After leaving the study, Zhou Yi placed the tray on the bar, quickly went back to the bedroom, changed her clothes, and came out.

When she came out, she saw Wenren Chen coming out of the study.

Zhou Yi asked in surprise, "Sir, is there anything you need?"

He hurried over to see if Wenren Chen had any other instructions.

His gaze fell on her; she was wearing her usual ordinary long clothes and trousers, and even her previously loose, long curly hair was tied up in her usual simple bun.

"Let's go."

He went outside.

Zhou Yi was stunned for a moment, then understood what he meant, and quickly grabbed the canvas bag from the sofa and followed him: "Sir, are you done with your work?"

After saying that, he seemed to remember something and asked, "Did I disturb you?"

"Busy working."

As he spoke, he opened the door and went out.

Hearing his words, Zhou Yi relaxed.

She thought she had disturbed her husband, but thankfully she hadn't.

He hurriedly caught up with Wenren Chen, and the two went out together.

As soon as Zhou Yi stepped out the door, she took out her phone to check the time; it was past eleven.

At this time of day, there are probably no large supermarkets still open, let alone vegetable markets, as everyone has gone home for the night.

Frowning, Zhou Yi put down her phone and looked at Wenren Chen: "Sir, it's past eleven o'clock now. There shouldn't be any big supermarkets still open outside. How about we go to a late-night snack shop for some late-night food?"
