Western Australia boiled the herbs into three bowls of water before pouring them into a bowl, placing it on a tray. He was dressed in a suit and leather shoes. Ignoring the eye on the bridge of his nose, he was like a waiter.
"Boss, Miss Du's medicine is ready." Western Australia pressed the doorbell again. When Lu Juyan opened the door, he didn't intend to take half a step inside and slowly spoke.
The fragrance of Chinese medicine assaulted his nose. The brown-black color was like that deep pool, so deep that one could not see the bottom.
Lu Juyan took the tray and returned to his room. He put the tray on the bedside table, picked up the bowl of medicine, and fed spoonful by spoonful to her to drink.
Once he saw the bottom of the soup, Lu Juyan took out a tissue and carefully wiped Du Ruqing's body, as if he were treating a porcelain doll.
His fingertip lightly touched Du Yun's cheek and the corner of his mouth curled up into a faint smile. Her deep eyes were filled with love, but her master didn't notice it at all.
"Hey, is there anyone here? Why didn't you close the door? " Seeing that the door was slightly ajar, a leave application aunt knocked on the door and stuck her head in to ask a question.
These sudden words allowed Lu Juyan's train of thoughts to recover as his deep eyes cleared up as well. He turned around and looked at the aunt. Just as he was about to speak, he heard her say, "Young man, it was you who saved this lady, right?"
Lu Juyan walked up and nodded indifferently. He knew in his heart that this was what Western Australia had revealed to others during their conversation. Seeing Du Liqing sleeping on the bed, afraid of disturbing her, he habitually brought his aunt out.
"Could I trouble you to take care of her for me? Please don't tell her about this. "
As soon as the two walked out of their room, Lu Juyan carefully closed the door. He looked at the amiable woman in front of him, took out a sum of money and placed it in front of the aunt to inform her of his purpose.
Such courtesy also made Auntie feel that Lu Juyan's outfit did not match. Her gaze consciously wanted to peek through the crack in the door to see who the woman inside was.
Lu Juyan didn't receive his aunt's approval and purposefully stuffed the money into the other party's hands. He said preemptively, "I'll be troubling you."
"Alright." Seeing Lu Juyan's unyielding attitude, the aunt could only helplessly agree.
Before she could say anything else, she saw Lu Juyan turn around and leave in a free and easy manner, as if he was completely unfamiliar with the woman lying inside. He felt a strange sensation as he looked at the large amount of money in his hands.
Ye Zichen put the money in his pocket, then gently pushed the door and entered. Looking at the obedient face of Du Liqing on the bed, an inexplicable feeling of love rose up. He sat on a small stool by the bed and waited for Du to wake up.
In the morning, Dean's consciousness gradually recovered as he opened his hazy eyes. Looking at the familiar scene in front of him, he was shocked. He sat up abruptly as his mind kept replaying what happened last night.
"Miss, are you awake? Are you better? "
Auntie took the money to do some work, so she went to cook some millet porridge for them. After placing the bowl of porridge on the table, he turned around and saw Du Liqing sitting there after waking up. He wiped his hands on his apron and walked over to her bedside and asked in concern.
"Hmm, didn't I lose consciousness last night?" "How could it be …"
Du Ruqing looked at the unfamiliar aunt in front of her. She opened her mouth and smelled a strong fragrance of Chinese medicine. A astringent feeling spread through her mouth and she could not help but frown as she asked this question without knowing the truth.
The aunt who was about to take off her apron stiffened. When she saw Du Liqing's pure eyes, she immediately cast her gaze over. Lu Juyan's words echoed in his mind as his fingertips inadvertently touched the pocket holding the money.
Ye Zichen rubbed his head, hiding the slight nervousness he felt. He pretended to be indifferent as he said, "I was the one who bumped into you and saved you."
Suddenly, her blue eyes began to itch. She subconsciously reached out her hand to rub it, just in time to miss the panic that flashed through her eyes. When he raised his head again, the man had already begun his performance with a calm expression.
"I see. Thank you so much!" Du Liqing lifted the quilt and bowed to the people with eyes full of gratitude.
The two chatted for a bit or two before the aunt let Du Ruqing go to wash up, eat some porridge, and then go to work. Before Du Ruqing left, she even purposely said a few words of advice to him.
In the evening, Du Ruqing came back from work and met her aunt again. The two of them walked back to her room together, talking and laughing.
"I'll go make some food. Wait for me here." Auntie looked at his pure blue eyes and liked him a lot. Ye Zichen rubbed her hair like he was treating his daughter, then left the place after saying that.
He went downstairs to the kitchen to get some fruits and vegetables and prepared to make a nutritious dinner for Du Liqing.
At the entrance of the hotel, Lu Juyan once again subconsciously drove his car here. Actually, even he didn't know why he had come here.
Worry, or miss? Even he himself did not understand.
He got out of the car and headed upstairs to the hotel. Standing in the doorway of Du's green room, he stretched out his hand to press the doorbell, but realized that he didn't seem to have the courage to press it.
"Hey, kid, why aren't you going in?" Aunt was about to bring a tray of food into Du Liqing's room when she saw a familiar back and couldn't help but tease him.
Lu Juyan's body stiffened as he put down the hand he'd just raised and hid it behind his back. Suddenly, he felt a little awkward. Seeing the look of inquiry on the other party's face, he subconsciously opened his mouth and said, "It's just passing by."
Such a lousy excuse immediately caused Lu Juyan to shut his mouth after he finished speaking, his gaze shifting to another direction to avoid them.
"If you're worried, why don't you take care of it yourself?" Having lived for a long time, he had seen many people's faces. Naturally, his ability to distinguish between the true from the false wasn't that weak. She restrained the smile on her face as she looked at Lu Juyan, and helplessly blurted out the questions in her heart.
"No, it's just that I can't meet her because of some matters." Lu Juyan couldn't hide it, nor did he know how. He pursed his lips as the words' do not connect 'rippled through his mind, making him feel slightly depressed.
This made those watching mistake this as a quarrel between the couple and shook their heads helplessly. They had wanted to do more to console them, but Lu Juyan's subsequent actions had stopped them in their tracks.
"Auntie, I'm sorry for troubling you to buy her something to eat. She might not be that good at taking care of herself, so please don't tell her."
With a green heart, Lu Juyan once again took out his wallet from his pocket, took out a sum of money and gave it to his aunt. "He didn't ask for anything weak, but his aura was a habitual command.
Without giving his aunt a chance to inquire further, Lu Juyan turned around and left, as if he was absolutely sure that the other person would help him with something.
Auntie once again helplessly kept the money properly, accepting the request of others to be loyal to someone. She first pressed the doorbell and saw Du Liqing open the door. She pretended as if nothing had happened and gave the food in her hand to the man.
