Chapter 153: Chapter 153: Something’s Up!
"Ideals are plump, reality is skeletal."
The little tyke, suitcase in tow, had barely stepped out the door before being spotted and carted back into the villa.
Now, she was truly heartbroken.
Lying on the sofa, she began to reason, but failing to win her case, she resorted to looking pitiful. Even that didn’t work... and with a loud ’waah’ she burst into tears!
"I don’t care, I don’t care, I just want to go and find my little sister."
The little one clung to a pillow, flailing and thrashing about on the sofa.
After her vehement protest and still being denied leaving, she really went on a hunger strike.
One meal skipped, the butler simply saw it as a ploy and didn’t budge.
Two meals skipped, the butler started to lose his cool and went to search her room for any stash of snacks she might have hidden.
Qin Morui’s diet was carefully crafted by a dedicated nutritionist, ensuring he ate the most suitable foods, so whatever he consumed was trackable.
Unless, like before, he had secretly stored the previous day’s food to eat the next day.
But using the same trick would surely be discovered.
The butler searched the entire room and found nothing. When he turned his head to see the little figure, looking woebegone and sprawled on the bed, a signal unexpectedly flashed through his mind: perhaps this time she was serious.
The next day, Qin Nanyu ignored the sulking child and left the house early.
On the way, he had his assistant stop at the flower shop. He personally got out and picked a bouquet of champagne roses.
The buds, ready to bloom against the morning glow, were freshly sprinkled with water, radiating a lustrous sheen.
They were fresh, elegant, and very tasteful.
The assistant, seeing his boss return to the car with a bouquet of roses, almost popped his eyeballs out of their sockets.
This was as monumental as the time he caught his boss actually holding a woman!
Even the iron-clad straight man was buying flowers!!!
Who were these for? Even if they were just champagne roses, not red, his boss, impeccably dressed in a suit and holding flowers, looked as though he was on his way to make a confession.
Before the assistant could recover from his shock, Qin Nanyu had placed the flowers on the back seat and casually instructed, "Go to Nanpo Apartment."
Nanpo Apartment.
Ji Weitian had suffered a rather severe blow to her waist, lying in bed all night only to find each movement painfully aggravating the next day, so she simply took a sick day to rest at home.
Having just woken up, she received a consoling call from her best friend.
"I’m fine, just a bump on the waist from a chair, really just one bump... what do you mean ’be careful or it’ll affect your married life’? My back is fine, I’m just injured and resting at home for a couple of days, talk properly."
Ji Weitian blushed hearing Kali abruptly switch to risqué jokes on the other end of the line.
She climbed out of bed, pretending as if nothing had happened, and went to pour herself a drink.
As she placed her phone on the table, she could still hear Kali’s teasing voice.
"You’re someone with a daughter already, I just made a joke. I’m not the one blushing, so why are you? Is there an affair?"
Ji Weitian had just taken a sip of water and almost spit it out, "What nonsense are you spouting? I got hurt at work, not from doing anything bad. What affair could there be?"
Kali: "Then do tell me, how did Young Master Yu take you to the hospital? You were at each other’s throats before, and then suddenly there’s a change of heart. I always feel there’s something fishy, couldn’t it be that you two..."
"We have nothing between us," she retorted, "I got hurt and no one noticed. Then he, with his keen eyesight, saw that I probably couldn’t get home on my own. He was afraid I’d die in his lab and dirty his territory, so he reluctantly helped me and took me to the hospital."
