186 You’re Taking Up Too Much Space

Ming Liuyi did not have a choice; she could only lift the blanket and lie in Yao Zizhou’s arms.

Ming Liuyi also remembered that she had told him to keep a safe distance, but lying in Yao Zizhou’s arms, she did not want to leave at all. Miffed, she said, “You’re taking up too much space.”

Yao Zizhou did not say anything, and only hugged her even tighter. On the contrary, Yao Zizhou thought that the size of the bed was just right, and his wife was soft and comfortable to hold.

Yao Zizhou gently kissed her forehead and said, “Good night.”

The two of them hugged each other and had a good night’s sleep.

…

As usual, Yao Zizhou woke up very early. The two of them lived here without any servants. Knowing that there was no food in the kitchen and refrigerator, Yao Zizhou got up to cook some noodles.

Ming Liuyi woke up to the aroma of the cooking. When she got up from bed, she did not wear her shoes and just went straight downstairs.

Seeing Yao Zizhou cooking in the kitchen, Ming Liuyi could hardly believe it. “The CEO can cook?”

Yao Zizhou saw that Ming Liuyi was not wearing any shoes and sighed. He picked her up and placed her on the table.

Ming Liuyi had just woken up, and her hair was a mess. She was wearing the couple’s pajamas that matched Yao Zizhou’s, and her legs dangled over the edge of the table.

Yao Zizhou thought that if he ended up having nothing one day, as long as he could be with his wife, a simple life like this would be good.

Ming Liuyi saw Yao Zizhou’s strange expression and seemed to know what he was thinking. She said, “President Yao, you can’t stand around like a lovestruck fool. You still have much to accomplish.”

Yao Zizhou frowned inside. ‘My wife is such a killjoy.’

It was obviously not Yao Zizhou’s first time cooking, but the last time he did so was a long time ago, so it may as well have been his first time. Yao Zizhou was a careful person. He found a recipe on the phone and followed it strictly, so what he came up with was exactly what the recipe said.

Ming Liuyi looked at Yao Zizhou’s noodles and was a little surprised. Just by looking at the appearance, she knew it was not bad. Ming Liuyi reached out, wanting to take the bowl, but Yao Zizhou brought it out of her reach.

He said, “It’s very hot. Go put on your shoes and wash up first. After you’re done, then you can come down and enjoy a good meal.”

Ming Liuyi had no choice but to go back upstairs, put on her slippers, and brush her teeth.

Finally, she sat down and took a big bite. Of course, it was delicious, and Ming Liuyi voiced that thought aloud, “It’s so delicious! As expected of President Yao!”

Yao Zizhou enjoyed the praise.

Ming Liuyi continued, “The head secretary, Huang Jingting, knows that I’m unemployed, so she’s giving me an internship. If there’s no problem, I’ll be able to work at the foundation.”

Yao Zizhou raised his eyebrows and said, “If you want to work, you could have come to Yao Corporation.”

Ming Liuyi said, “The foundation is more established! I especially like doing charity work.”

Yao Zizhou was silent for a while. This could be interpreted as his wife looking down on Yao Corporation, and it made him feel a bit embarrassed.

Yao Zizhou thought for a moment and frowned. He did not want to ruin his wife’s mood, so he did not say anything.

“I’ll finish eating quickly and then go to work,” Ming Liuyi said. “It’s my first day, so I can’t be late.”

“Alright, I’ll send you there,” Yao Zizhou said.

The driver was already downstairs, and the two of them got into the car.

Ming Liuyi was dressed professionally, with her resume and proof of identity in her backpack. She was about to go to work, and Ming Liuyi suddenly felt a little nervous. Yao Zizhou could also see her emotions, and he reached out to hug her, as if he was comforting a small animal, and gently stroked her hair.

He knew that this job would not be as simple as Ming Liuyi said. The workplace was complicated, and people’s hearts were unpredictable. He said, “Dear, don’t let yourself be bullied. If you’re unhappy, come home at once.”

Ming Liuyi calmed down under Yao Zizhou’s reassurance. She widened her eyes and said,

“This is a CEO quote, plus one!”

The Charity Foundation for Vegetative People was located in an old building in the urban area. From the outside, it seemed to have been there for many years.

Yao Zizhou watched Ming Liuyi enter and said, “Find a parking space.” He frowned, feeling a little worried.

As expected, in less than an hour, Ming Liuyi came out with her resume and looked downcast. She did not leave immediately, but sat on the steps in a daze.

It was still early, but it was hot. Ming Liuyi lowered her head and felt like her hair was burning. Soon, a pair of nice leather shoes appeared in front of her eyes, blocking the sunlight.

Ming Liuyi’s heart suddenly beat faster. She raised her head and found Yao Zizhou standing in front of her.
