Chapter 505 - The Energetic Lady Zhao

“Ahead….of time?!”

Zhao Anan got both startled and furious.

Mu Qing consoled her instantly. “Everything is fine now. It was a critical situation back then, but now all is well. Both Sister-in-law and the child are recovering properly. It is being said that your nephew is not that different from the children born at full term. He is healthy and well developed.”

Only then did Zhao Anan breathe in a sigh of relief.

She suddenly realized that a lot had changed during her time in captivity.

Zhao Anan was still weak, so she did not stay in the bathtub for too long. Soon, Mu Qing carried her out.

Zhao Anan got dressed in the outfit which Mu Qing had asked the servants to buy the day before. She wanted to go downstairs for food when he stopped her.

“You have not yet recovered fully, just lie still! I will bring the food here. You can eat in bed.”

Zhao Anan thought about it for a moment and did not turn the idea down.

Honestly, she did lack the energy, and being with Mu Qing made her feel relaxed. So she threw herself on the bed and nodded. “Sure. You have exhausted me, so it is fair that you serve me till I recover.”

Mu Qing also thought that he had been a bit crazy earlier in the day. He smiled at Zhao Anan adoringly, kissed her lips and went downstairs.

Mu Qing had instructed the servants to prepare some simple dishes that could be easily digested and some porridge. The porridge was still warm but the dishes had turned cold. So, he asked the servants to make two more dishes, bring one more soup and a small appetiser and carried all the things upstairs.

The two servants of this villa were originally from A City. They had been living in the UK for the past ten years. Before Jing Yichen returned to A City, he lived here for a long time and these servants’ major tasks had been taking care of his food and daily housework.

So the food they made, fit Zhao Anan’s taste completely.

Zhao Anan was fed up with British breakfast, and had not touched any sort of porridge or wok dishes during the past six months. She had been tired of bread, potatoes,and beef every single day.

A simple dish like tomatoes with scrambled eggs made Zhao Anan wolf it down as if she was eating gourmet food.

She drank two bowls of millet and pumpkin porridge, frightening Mu Qing that he did not allow her to eat anything further.

“You have not eaten anything for days. Too much food at one time would harm your body. No more food for now!”

Zhao Anan licked her lips as she saw the pickled cucumbers that looked green and tender. She made up her mind that she was going to eat pickled cucumbers every single day, once she recovered!

She had not had interest in such a dish before, because she liked meat rather than vegetables. But after spending half a year eating beef, she had become completely fed up with meat.

She was eager to eat the light, fresh dishes instead.

But she did feel full right now. Her stomach had shrunk after being starved so often that little food also filled her up now.

After Mu Qing finished the food, he packed up everything and carried it down to the kitchen. When he came back, he found Zhao Anan falling asleep.

Sitting by her side and watching her exquisite face, Mu Qing could feel the emptiness of his heart going away.

He had nothing else to do, so he stripped off his clothes and snuggled into the blanket, going off to sleep with Zhao Anan in his arms.

At around 12, Lee Duo came home for food and could hear no activity in the bedroom upstairs. The servants told him that the couple ate a meal and went to bed again.

Lee Duo shook his head helplessly, made a call to Jing Yichen and reported to him about the happenings of the day.

Two days later, Zhao Anan had recovered fully and became as energetic as before. She did not mention anything about breaking up with Mu Qing, which assured him a little.

Mu Qing did not mention anything on that topic either. He was no longer going to keep her forcibly by his side but instead, kept her company wherever she went.

On the fourth day, Zhao Anan simply could not stand being in the UK any more. She was eager to return to A City, to visit Shangguan Ning and the newly-born Jing Rui.

She and Mu Qing went shopping on the streets of the UK for children’s clothes and toys and returned home with three pieces of luggage filled.

Zhao Anan had thought that she would be happy to return home, but the moment she got on the plane, she became displeased.

That pervert, muscular man was also on the plane. He was sitting next to Lee Duo, silent and looking explosive.

There were not so many people on the plane, apart from Lee Duo’s men who knew Zhao Anan well. Seeing that Zhao Anan was staring at the man in a sinister way, they all waited to see if any sort of fun was going to happen.

Ignoring Mu Qing’s protest, Zhao Anan sat down next to the man, stretched out her hand and patted the man’s bronze-skinned face, showing unmasked hatred. “Hey, why are you here, big guy? Who invited you here? Aren’t you Jing Yiran’s man? Since when did you become Lee Duo’s?”

Lee Duo had been with Jing Yichen for many years, and knew Zhao Anan’s personality well. Seeing that she came to create trouble for the guy, he stood up instantly.

“Lady Anan, Knife is already our man. He is a rare talent and I have received the order from Master, who said that after the probation time, he would become Master’s man, formally. Please don’t pick on him. He took the mission only because he was paid. That was his job.”

Zhao Anan did not care whose man he was. She was just furious for being imprisoned for so long and even starved. During the past half a year, she kept swearing to herself that the moment she was out of that room, she would get this man imprisoned for half a year and starve him.

With clenched teeth, Zhao Anan ignored Lee Duo and kept staring at the man. She asked in a teasing tone, “What is his name? Knife Lee?”

Lee Duo replied with embarrassment, “His family is really Lee, and his given name is Knife.”

Now Zhao Anan finally knew what this pervert was called.

But what kind of name was that? Knife Lee?!

Zhao Anan just could not help but burst into laughter. She pulled his ears and sneered at him ruthlessly. “You are really called Knife Lee? Why don’t you call yourself Happy Lee? Or, you can name yourself after the actor who played the role of Happy Lee. No, that won’t work, that actor is very good-looking, and you are so hideous. You will not do justice to the title!”

Actually, Knife Lee had quite a good appearance – large eyes, thick eyebrows and a square face.
