106 Good Job, Master!
Xiao Fan was still confused. ‘Why does Master want to save face?’
The madam noticed that the master had pointed at her face. She blushed slightly, got up, and gently kissed the spot he had just pointed at. Then, she lowered her head shyly and continued to eat.
‘Master is so sweet, and Madam is also very cute!’ Xiao Fan was envious.
In the afternoon, while Yao Zizhou was in the gym room, Zhao Qiang noticed that the master had suddenly stopped to point at his face with his hand. The madam then appeared suddenly and give him a light kiss. Then, she would leave shyly. Zhao Qiang pretended that he did not see anything, but he still smiled.

Ming Liuyi prepared a small gift for her visit to the rehabilitation center this weekend.
She had discussed it with You Lingling for a long time, and in the end, they decided to make some soft cookies to take with them.
It would not go bad easily, and it was edible for people in vegetative states and their family members. It was also easy to carry around, so it could be distributed to everyone. Most importantly, You Lingling thought that Ming Liuyi’s cookies were delicious!
Ming Liuyi had already started to prepare the materials and make the cookies. She pondered for a moment before finally adding a bit of spring water to the ingredients. Although it was very little, Ming Liuyi still hoped to bring everyone a little bit of luck.
You Lingling had also come over to help Ming Liuyi in the kitchen, and they made cookies of various shapes together. Although this kept them busy the whole day, the two of them were very happy.
After putting the last batch of cookies into the oven, You Lingling and Ming Liuyi sat in the living room, unwilling to move.
Although You Lingling’s body was very tired, her voice was still full of energy. “I’m exhausted, but really happy.”
Ming Liuyi smiled and said, “I hope everyone will like our little cookies.”
“You don’t have to hope, they’ll definitely take it!” You Lingling said. She suddenly thought of something and continued, “Liuyi, this is your first time going there. I have to remind you that, even though it’s summer now, the temperature up in the mountain will be lower than at the foot of the mountain. It’s best to bring a coat.”
You Lingling thought for a moment and added, “You should bring an umbrella, but a raincoat would be better. The rain in the mountains can get a little heavy.”
Ming Liuyi nodded and said, “Okay, thank you, Lingling.”
You Lingling’s voice was a little lonely as she said, “Liuyi, I really envy you. I hope my fiancé will wake up as soon as possible.”
Ming Liuyi immediately hugged You Lingling. She said, “I’ve prepared some cookies for you. Bring them back for your fiancé. I hope it’ll bring him good luck.”
“He should be able to feel everyone’s concern for him,” You Lingling said with a smile. Her mood changed suddenly, and she immediately said nosily, “Will your husband be attending tomorrow? When the family members see the comatose person that woke up, they’ll be very excited!”
“There’ll be a chance next time,” Ming Liuyi said. “If he goes to the mountains now, I’m afraid it’ll be too hard on him.”
“That’s true,” You Lingling said, “I saw the weather forecast. It’s going to rain this weekend. I hope everything goes well. But, Liuyi, your husband has been awake for some time. Have you guys… done it?”
When Ming Liuyi heard this question, she said with a puzzled expression, “Done what? What is it?”
“It’s fine, I knew you haven’t,” You Lingling said quickly.
After saying that, she felt a little embarrassed, and immediately took the cookies Ming Liuyi had prepared for her and bid her farewell.
Ming Liuyi, on the other hand, packed a plate of freshly made cookies and placed it on the table in the study for Yao Zizhou, so that he could eat one at any time.
Ming Liuyi had to go to the event the next day, so she went to bed early. However, because she was too excited, she tossed and turned, unable to fall asleep.
Yao Zizhou ruffled her hair and said, “I’m worried about you going alone, so He Xiang will go with you on behalf of the Yao Corporation.”
“Thank you,” Ming Liuyi said with a smile.
“There’s no sincerity in this gratitude, is there?” Yao Zizhou said playfully.
Ming Liuyi instantly understood and kissed Yao Zizhou’s lips.
“You’re welcome,” said Yao Zizhou with satisfaction.
…
The next morning, dark clouds covered the sky, as if a heavy storm was about to brew.
The driver sent Ming Liuyi to the meet-up location, and she boarded the coach prepared by the charity foundation.
Ming Liuyi and You Lingling sat in the back, holding the name list and discussing all the details for after they arrived. The other staff and volunteers were not affected by the weather and were full of energy. The buses and trucks with donated supplies set off in the cheerful laughter of the crowd.
When they arrived, the family members were standing at the entrance to welcome them. When they saw the people from the charity foundation, they became even more enthusiastic!
It was Ming Liuyi’s first time participating in such an event, and she felt that the people around her were full of kindness. She felt very warm in her heart.
