Chapter 137 Picking up my boyfriend
Xia Wanzhi was only slightly ill, but she received a lot of condolences and care from people.
It must have been the injections and medicine that worked, or perhaps I was surrounded by good fortune; I was almost fully recovered in three days.
Yunli specially packed a bunch of healthy and vibrant green lisianthus and brought it over to Xia Wanzhi. She pinched Xia Wanzhi's still chubby cheeks with her fingers and laughed, "Not bad, President Xie is quite good at taking care of people."
Xia Wanzhi simply smiled and said, "He's lost weight."
A smile tinged with heartache.
Yun Li opened her mouth, hesitated, and then sat down next to Xia Wanzhi, hugging her shoulders: "People are in high spirits when they have good news. He'll be fine in a few days."
Xia Wanzhi knew what she was talking about and felt a little embarrassed, so she immediately changed the subject: "How are things between you and Jiang Baichuan lately?"
Since Yunli got together with Jiang Baichuan, she rarely went to help out at the flower shop, because if Jiang Baichuan went, it would be considered tactless for her to go.
"That's good." Yunli said succinctly.
Xia Wanzhi stared at her without blinking, but didn't say a word.
Yunli: "..."
Unable to withstand Xia Wanzhi's gaze any longer, Yunli surrendered and cleared her throat: "Well... his sister and younger sister have been to the flower shop a few times, and they even brought friends with them."
Xia Wanzhi's eyes lit up: "What friend?"
Yunli couldn't say their names but could give a general idea of their identities: "The two ladies from the Lu family, the two ladies from the Qu family, and Rongrong."
Xia Wanzhi smiled faintly: "Yes, they're all acquaintances. It seems they couldn't resist coming to see their new bride."
Yunli: "..."
Xia Wanzhi laughed heartily: "You've even called Rongrong along. You've really gotten into the role of sister-in-law quickly."
Yunli blushed at the teasing. After playing around with her for a while, she sternly led her to the dining table and opened the insulated lunchbox she had brought: "Pork lung and snow pear soup, to soothe your throat, drink it all."
Xia Wanzhi's face clearly showed her rejection, and she turned to leave: "I'm all better now..."
"You can still drink it when you're better, it'll soothe your throat." Yunli pressed her down to sit. "Don't waste my good intentions."
Watching Xia Wanzhi drink almost a bowl, she stood up to leave, saying, "It's almost time. I'm going to pick up my boyfriend from get off work. You can drink slowly."
Xia Wanzhi wrinkled her nose: "Huh, picking up my boyfriend—"
Yunli was halfway there when she heard this, so she turned back and joked around with her for a while. Xia Wanzhi laughed so hard that she coughed twice.
"You've already said everything's fine, don't be so stubborn. If you don't want your fiancé to worry, drink some more soup to soothe your throat." Yun Li put her hat back on, which Xia Wanzhi had grabbed askew, gave a few more instructions, and then quickly ran off.
Xia Wanzhi pouted, then finally picked out the pig lungs, closed her eyes, and finished off the remaining snow pear and soup.
Yunli parked her car downstairs at the Jiang family's building. After sending a message to Jiang Baichuan, she put on a song and hummed along softly.
Upstairs in the chairman's office, Jiang Baichuan listened to his father speak while frequently checking the time on his wrist.
Jiang Xing glanced at him several times, thinking he was in a hurry to leave work to go find his girlfriend, and laughed out of exasperation: "Look at you, so pathetic."
"Yunli came to pick me up from get off work and I've been waiting for ten minutes. If you don't let me go soon, she'll get angry, and you'll have to appease her for me?"
Jiang Xing glared at him, grabbed a pen, and threw it at him: "You brat..."
Jiang Baichuan laughed out loud, steadily caught the pen and handed it back to him: "I've already come up with a solution for the project, so you don't need to worry about it. My girlfriend is getting impatient, so I'm leaving now."
He walked very fast. Jiang Xing, the old father, watched his swift back and felt happy that his son was finally getting married.
Yunli's car was black, and she parked it in a less conspicuous spot, so Jiang Baichuan didn't find it easily. He only recognized her when he saw her roll down the window and wave at him.
He asked Yunli why she chose black.
Yunli's answer consisted of only two words—
convenient.
Jiang Baichuan didn't understand, so she explained that it was because driving red or pink cars was usually assumed to be driven by female drivers, and female drivers were more likely to be maliciously cut off or have their lanes cut off.
Jiang Baichuan then asked her why she didn't choose white.
Yunli was stunned for a long time before saying that white was too clean and too pure.
What she didn't say was that sentence—
It's not suitable for her.
Once in the car, Jiang Baichuan didn't rush to fasten his seatbelt. He leaned over and asked for a kiss before settling down, slightly out of breath.
Yunli bit her lip and glared at him reproachfully: "Are you a reincarnated starving ghost?"
Jiang Baichuan laughed so hard his chest trembled slightly: "I missed you."
"I made pork lung and snow pear soup. Are you taking it home to drink, or...?"
"A hotel, please." Jiang Baichuan said without hesitation.
Yunli: "..."
Because Xia Wanzhi had just recovered from her illness, and because Jiang Baichuan had also been coughing a bit these past two days, she took a day off today and didn't open the shop. She specially made some lung-moistening and cough-relieving pear soup at home and gave it to the two of them.
They are all the most important people to her, so she can't help but worry about them.
I was going to ask him if he wanted to go to the flower shop, but now I'm thinking that going to the hotel would also be fine.
Where we are doesn't matter, the main thing is that I want to be with Jiang Baichuan.
When they arrived at the hotel, Yun Li couldn't help but laugh when she saw Jiang Baichuan drinking the pig lung and pear soup, looking exactly like Xia Wanzhi: "Is it really that bad?"
Jiang Baichuan dared not say it tasted bad. He swallowed a mouthful with difficulty and explained, "It's not that your cooking is bad, it's the pig lungs..."
"Don't be picky about food. Even good medicine tastes bitter. Chew it and swallow it." Yunli sat opposite him, keeping an eye on him.
Jiang Baichuan didn't dare utter a single word of complaint.
There was still half a bowl of soup left, which Jiang Baichuan definitely couldn't finish, so Yun Li moved over to drink with him, muttering as she drank, "It tastes alright."
Jiang Baichuan laughed and said, "People who don't eat offal can't stand the smell. It's like cilantro; some people love it, while others can't stand the smell."
Yunli pouted: "But you ate it too."
Jiang Baichuan did indeed drink the soup and eat the pig lung. After finishing what was in his own bowl, he went to eat Yunli's. He asked in a serious tone, "Is this pig lung?"
His voice was warm and pleasant, and he spoke with righteous indignation: "No, this is my girlfriend's love for me, her love that is meticulous and overflowing."
Yunli was amused: "Stop being so cheeky."
"I'm not kidding, I'm serious." Jiang Baichuan took her hand, as if negotiating, and asked, "I accept your love, so, boss lady, are you willing to accept my love?"
Yunli was puzzled and asked with a smile, "What?"
Before he finished speaking, Jiang Baichuan took out a ring box with his right hand and, to Yun Li's stunned gaze, took out a pink diamond ring.
Before Yunli could react, he had already slipped the slipper onto her wrist.
Then, as if nothing had happened, he continued drinking his soup.
Yunli: "…………"
