Chapter 106: Chapter 106: Meeting the Big Brother

Chen Zhu gently placed Xia Yue’s belongings on the coffee table and asked with a smile, "Miss Xia Yue, what would you like to drink?"

"I’d like a glass of juice," Xia Yue replied with a smile.

"Alright, just give me a moment," Chen Zhu nodded and left to prepare a glass of juice for her.

"Thank you," Xia Yue said with a smile when she accepted the juice.

"Please wait here. Xiaoxia should be done with the meeting in about half an hour. If you need anything in the meantime, do not hesitate to call on me," Chen Zhu said, smiling.

"You may go on with your work, I’ll wait here. But remember not to tell my brother, I wish to give him a surprise," Xia Yue replied, nodding with a laugh.

After watching Chen Zhu leave with a nod, Xia Yue took a sip of her juice and quickly took the flowers out of her bag to check that everything was in order.

Then she took out her phone and began browsing while lounging on the couch.

About half an hour later, she heard a commotion by the door, quickly put away her phone, and walked to greet whoever was coming.

As soon as Xia Yu opened the office door, Xia Yue threw herself at him.

"Big brother, I’m back!" She wrapped her arms around his neck and exclaimed joyfully.

"Yueyue," Xia Yu muttered, his darkening face instantly lighting up at the sound of her voice, even as he started to push the intruder away. As he recognized her, he reached out cautiously to hold her by the waist.

Xia Yue released him and took a step back so he could see her clearly.

"Surprised, aren’t you?" she said with a grin.

"Definitely a surprise," Xia Yu replied with a smile as he closed the door. He then continued, "When did you arrive? Why didn’t you tell me earlier so I could have picked you up?"

"Hehe, it was for the surprise. Now come, look at the birthday gift I brought for grandpa," Xia Yue said, leading him to the coffee table where the Dew Frost Orchid, covered with a glass dome, was placed.

"Is this a real flower?" Xia Yu asked in surprise as he looked at the transparent petals.

"Of course it is, have a feel," Xia Yue urged as she removed the cover.

Xia Yu reached out, touching and feeling the petals verifying its authenticity.

"Cover it back up. Grandpa’s birthday is not for another two days," Xia Yu quickly instructed.

"It’s not as delicate as you think, I chose ones that are both pretty and easy to care for, just in case grandpa might have trouble caring for more demanding ones," Xia Yue laughed, but obeyed his instruction nonetheless.

"How did you get here?" Xia Yu asked.

"I just came back for a few days, thought I’d just stay in your apartment. It’s too much of a hassle to go to my own villa," Xia Yue answered as she looked at him from the couch.

"Alright, where’s your luggage then?" Xia Yu asked.

"I didn’t bring any. Remember I left a few outfits here the last time? Those should suffice for a couple of days," Xia Yue replied indifferently.

"You really are casual," Xia Yu said with a sigh.

"It’s fine, it’s fine," Xia Yue chuckled.

"So are you going to wait for me here until I finish work or do you want to go back first? I have a few tasks to take care of around here," Xia Yu asked, looking at her.

"I’ll wait for you, I have nothing else to do," Xia Yue replied.

"Okay, are you hungry? I can ask someone to bring back some bubble tea and food for you," Xia Yu offered.

"Is it okay if I order some takeout?" Xia Yue asked.

"Sure," Xia Yu nodded.

"Can I order some barbecue or fried food?" Xia Yue inquired.

"Go ahead, I’ll turn on the air purifier later," Xia Yu nodded, speaking indulgently.

"Yay, you’re the best, big brother," Xia Yue said, joyfully picking up her phone to order her favorite food.
