Happily Deceived
Ye Fei glanced at the bottle of Ice Muscle Jade Bee Water in his hand, as well as the cotton towel in his other hand, which he was about to use to clean Mu Zijin’s back with.
Then, he glanced at Mu Zijin, only to see her lying on the hospital bed with her back facing his way.
Mu Zijin was laying on her stomach on the hospital bed, her head completely buried in the pillow, and her black and lustrous hair was scattered across her waist and hips.
Her womanly curves were totally unveiled and displayed to Ye Fei at this moment.
A burning red hue covered both of her cheeks, and a hint of guilt seamed in those icy gorgeous eyes.
In front of Ye Fei, Mu Zijin acted very naturally, but she felt her body becoming exceedingly heated.
Mu Zijin seductively nibbled on her lips and began to try to disperse the varied thoughts on Ye Fei. She could maintain her composure and sustain her expression, although she felt worried at the moment.
Even the most frigid and haughty of women will display her true colors in front of a man she loves.
Soon after, Ye Fei unfastened Mu Zijin's black coat and helped her in applying the ice muscle jade bee water. Although the effect was quite strong owing to the blend of Chinese medicine, the odor was neither pleasant nor comfortable to smell.
However, after putting the cotton towel in the medication, Ye Fei began to clean Mu Zijin's wounds on her face.
Her skin is delicate, silkier than that of a newborn, with a satin-like tone, and an incredibly elastic feeling.
There were multiple external wounds on her back that were bandaged, but Ye Fei removed them and then treated the location of the injury with a cotton swab dipped in the medication he made, and Mu Zijin felt a cold sensation on her muscles as a result.
It was quite pleasant, and it felt warmer than she had anticipated.
Ye Fei's movement of smearing the wound was slow and gentle, giving Mu Zijin the sensation of feathers tickling her back and making her flush even more.
Mu Zijin instantly suppressed her strange emotions and changed the subject, muttering quietly, "Wei Lao will celebrate his 85th birthday with a banquet in a few days. When the time comes, Chen Luo will surely be welcomed by the Wei family."
She was aware of Ye Fei and Chen Luo's feud, so she took the initiative to remind her lover.
"The Wei family has a very tight relationship with Chen Luo's Master, so it was normal for Chen Luo to be close to the Wei family,” Ye Fei replied casually while caressing Mu Zijin's hand softly.
Ye Fei evidently expected this since the birthday banquet is a crucial event in the original novel.
Mr. Wei's birthplace in Yanjing is unfathomable, and his impact is unparalleled since he was the Wei family's backbone.
So it was a foregone conclusion that Mr. Wei's birthday would be a feast for the upper class of Yanjing.
In reality, the event is bigger than Chen Luo. Even the richest family in Yanjing would have to respect the old man and attend the banquet to congratulate him.
Even if you don’t go to celebrate his birthday, you will definitely have to give a gift.
"Senior Wei invited me too, so let's go together when that time comes." Mu Zijin remarked gently.
When Mu Zijin said "Let's go together", the meaning couldn't be more obvious.
If such a circumstance arose, and Ye Fei and Mu Zijin stood side by side, it would undoubtedly show the Mu family's intentions.
When Ye Fei heard this, he felt warmth in his heart; certainly, Mu Zijin only had the best and most pure intentions for him.
Ye Fei responded with a smile, "Okay."
"Then, it's settled."
In truth, Ye Fei had been preparing to attend the Wei family's birthday banquet for quite some time.
The birthday banquet of the Wei family is also an enormously important event in the original novel, because it helps Chen Luo to be popular and acquainted him with all of the different Yanjing big shots.
For example, Chen Luo solicited the assistance of the Wei, Mu, and another top behemoth, the Zheng families, all of whom worked together to uproot and ultimately destroy the Ye family.
Among them, the Wei family played a huge role in the Ye Group’s demise.
This is also why Ye Fei sought to improve his medical abilities ahead of time.
And after reaching the master level, Ye Fei's medical skills were superior to Chen Luo's, and as long as he was at the Wei family birthday banquet, even Chen Luo couldn't stand out!
But for the moment, Ye Fei retracted his thoughts and concentrated on wiping Mu Zijin's back.
He massaged her thighs softly with a grin on his face, her skin was crystal pure and white, and it felt like touching cold gello.
Mu Zijin's cheeks were red the entire time she felt Ye Fei's hands on her back and then on her thighs.
Ye Fei finally finished applying the icy muscle jade bee water after a while.
Mu Zijin then put her clothes back on and turned away hesitantly.
When Ye Fei saw this, he took her hand in his and smiled, "I also brought you some stomach medicine. You should take it now and save it for later."
"I know." Mu Zijin raised the corners of her mouth, clearly pleased.
Ye Fei replied with a light smile, "I will continue to apply the ice muscle jade bee water for you once a day from now on, maybe twice a day for two weeks."
"Everyday?,” Mu Zijin’s eyes quickly widened, as she looked at him.
Do you really have to apply the ice muscle jade bee water once a day?
This….?
Today, Ye Fei applied the medication for at least 20 minutes, and Mu Zijin felt vulnerable and heated throughout that time.
Yet, he says he needs to do it at least once a day for a whole week!?
"Of course, the Bingji Jade Bee Water takes a week for the effect to work, and because I am the creator, I wouldn't lie to you at all!,” replied Ye Fei confidently.
Seeing Ye Fei’s righteous expression, Mu Zijin reluctantly believed in Ye Fei's sincere words.
Ye Fei stayed in the private ward for a few more minutes with Mu Zijin before leaving.
When Ye Fei left, Mu Zijin unlocked her phone, searched for "Bingji Muscle Jade Bee Water," and clicked a link that led her to an official website with information on the many flagship stores that offer the product.
Then she noticed that the description of the Bingji Jade Bee Water was accurate: the product should be used once a day, but only for two days, not a week, as Ye Fei said!
When Mu Zijin saw the instructions, her face turned red, and hse immediately understood that Ye Fei was deliberately deceiving her.
Despite the fact that Mu Zijin had been deceived by Ye Fei, she was not in a bad mood. She lifted the corners of her mouth, clicked off the mobile web page, set her phone aside, and took the thick book on the desk next to her and began to read.
Simultaneously, the Qizheng Group's board of directors meeting began to progress further.
Throughout the meeting's initial phases, Duan Qizheng felt he had an unbeatable edge, but the following scenario stunned him.
To take effect, each important company decision must be authorized by more than two-thirds of the directors, according to government regulations.
So Duan Qizheng analyzed and concluded that no matter what, Li Xiangyun would never be able to remove him through a voting system.
But the actual truth astonished Duan Qizheng, because more than half of the directors in attendance backed Li Xiangyun's choice.
Looking at the directors who had their hands raised, Duan Qizheng and Chen Luo both showed consternation.
