"Why are you back so late?" Zhong Shaoting said softly. Although he used the word again, there was a trace of gentleness in his tone.
"We've already finished making the Soup of Tranquil Spirit. I feel that you've worked so hard, so I wanted to ask you to drink it."
Receiving Ding Manman's concern, Zhong Shaoting felt a warm feeling in his heart, but he still calmed down and asked: "Have you drunk yet?"
"Yes, yes." Ding Manman quickly nodded her head, she thought Zhong Shaoting wanted to know whether the soup was good or not. To be honest, he didn't feel good, but in order to trick Zhong Shaoting, he could only say it. "It's delicious though."
At this moment, Zhong Shaoting suspiciously looked at Ding Manman a few times. This girl did not lie at all, because her eyes were the most honest.
"Then let's go take a look." Just as Zhong Shaoting was about to head back to the kitchen, he was pushed back by Ding Manman. Maybe he was caught unprepared, or maybe Ding Manman used too much force and allowed the two of them to enter the room together due to inertia.
Zhong Shaoting did not even need to turn on the light for handling official affairs, because all of these things were in his mind. At this moment, the only thing that remained was the night light beside his bed emitting a gentle glow, and an ambiguous atmosphere swirling around him.
Ding Manman, who was still full of energy a moment ago, actually managed to push Zhong Shaoting into the room with such force, instantly became listless. She shyly stood in the room, not knowing what to do.
Zhong Shaoting was the first to react, he walked to the door and closed the door.
"Kacha kacha ~ ~ ~"
Hearing the sound of the door being locked, Ding Manman was so anxious that she nearly jumped up, and asked: "What are you doing?!"
"Didn't you know to lock the door from the inside?" Zhong Shaoting acted as if nothing had happened and casually said it.
"You … I... A man and a woman alone in a room! You locked the door! "Quick, let me out!" Ding Manman shouted in an extremely agitated voice.
In her heart, she had long since abandoned his ladylike image. Not only did such a shrewish of a wife not scare Zhong Shaoting, it instead made him smile from the corner of his eyes.
"Pervert, let me out!" Ding Manman struggled as hard as she could to break free, but when she reached the door, she discovered that Zhong Shaoting's bedroom had undergone a special treatment. There were four passwords, and they could only be opened if they were all correct.
At this moment, Zhong Shaoting's smile became even more demonic, as though Ding Manman had already placed a plate of food in front of him, whether or not she ate it all depended on her mood.
"How do I remember? One day you gave me a lot of wine, but nothing happened to us that day. Why don't we make up for it today?"
These words were like a bolt of lightning that struck Ding Manman hard. She had done so righteously then, but now she was scared to death.
Sensing that Ding Manman was retreating step by step, Zhong Shaoting forced him to retreat step by step with a light smile, until both of them reached a corner of the wall.
Zhong Shaoting lowered his head slightly, brought himself closer to Ding Manman, and asked: "From now on, you should also make me some Spirit-Calming Soup, right?"
"I don't want it." Ding Manman doesn't have the patience to do this sort of thing. More importantly, if I, who come to Zhong Shaoting's room every day, was this dangerous, she would definitely circle around this room in the future.
"This is none of your business. After all, you owe me so much. At the very least, you must repay me properly, right?" When Zhong Shaoting said this, he became extremely overbearing.
Ding Manman really wanted to beat him up, but there was a huge difference in their strength. The other party was indeed merciful to him, so Ding Manman could only swallow her anger.
When there were still two little people arguing and arguing in Ding Manman's little head, she suddenly felt a warm and gentle sensation on her lips. It was Zhong Shaoting's lips, this man who always had a smelly face usually kissed her …
Seemingly understanding what Ding Manman was thinking, Zhong Shaoting said in a somewhat cold voice: "Focus."
Is this the legendary old secretary of the Commission for Discipline Inspection!? Ding Manman felt unfairness in her heart, she had to control whether she kissed her or not even if she had to focus, let alone if you kissed me on your own accord.
As Zhong Shaoting's actions continued, the voices that were filled with grievances in his heart gradually weakened. Ding Manman's will seemed to have fallen asleep as well, and under Zhong Shaoting's control, it became motionless.
When Ding Manman came back to her senses, she saw a rare warm smile on Zhong Shaoting's face, and she said: "You don't have to look forward to it, isn't your friend still outside? Let's go. "
Hearing Zhong Shaoting's rare voice that was as warm as spring, Ding Manman only felt that she no longer had any strength left on him. However, both of her hands were still wrapped around Zhong Shaoting's skinny waist as if he had his own consciousness.
"I'm going to change my clothes and go out." As Zhong Shaoting said that, he released his from his embrace, allowing her to rest on the bed while he changed his clothes.
Ding Manman, who was staring at her hands in a daze, saw Zhong Shaoting walking around the room from the corner of his eyes. In the darkness, Ding Manman felt that her face was extremely red, and his heart was thumping like it was about to jump out of her chest.
When Zhong Shaoting had put on some clothes, Ding Manman finally woke up. She looked like she had lost her soul as she sat on the bed and said: "Let's go, your friend is still waiting outside."
As Ding Manman left, Bai Beiwang stood alone in the kitchen, his figure indescribably lonely and his usual efficiency extremely high. The incomparably intelligent her also had a small secret of his heart. For example, after seeing Zhong Shaoting, she couldn't help but feel that this man was really good, but there were many reasons that they hadn't met yet.
Coming to the Zhong Family was obviously not to simply experience life. She quietly took out a small paper bag that was already hidden inside her sleeves, and lightly shook the medicinal powder inside it into the soup. Then he tore the paper into pieces and threw it in the trash.
After finishing all of this, Bai Beiwang felt that his heart was beating extremely quickly, but after listening for a long time, there was no movement, which made her dare to pick up the spoon and stir it lightly in the medicinal powder bowl.
After finishing all of this, Bai Beiwang patiently waited for a long time before seeing Zhong Shaoting carrying Ding Manman to the kitchen.
The intelligent Bai Beiwang, was able to see through Zhong Shaoting's stern and cold gaze when he looked at him again. It was as if he was being scolded for staying here and causing trouble.
However, when his gaze turned back to Ding Manman, a gentle light shone out from within the coldness.
Bai Beiwang laughed bitterly in his heart. After adjusting his condition, he said: "I'm really sorry to disturb you so late. Come and try the Soothing Spirit Soup I made."
