Chapter 120 Gifts

Finding her way to Mr. Fang's villa, she saw the door locked and input the password before helping herself inside.

'Looks like everyone is preoccupied.' She thought as she walked straight to her bedroom to take off her clothes and run into the bathroom.

She perspired a little for walking in the setting sun from the estate to the house, and needed a cold water bath to feel better.

Instead of a quick shower, she dillgently set her bath before slipping inside.

As soon as the cool water touched her skin, she moaned comfortablly with her eyes shut, and a smile resting on her face.

"Rose petals, essential oil and a glass of wine, and my bath would be complete!" She said to herself and released a deep sigh.

She laid in the bubble bath for long minutes. She felt that she deserved at least, that kind of treatment.

Outside of her bedroom...

"Butler Gu, I heard someone come in, is that Miss Zhang, or is Mr. Fang back home?" Ms. Chu asked.

She had just stepped out of the kitchen and saw the butler passing. When she was there, she heard the door unlock, but was too busy to go and see for herself.

"Miss Zhang is back," Butler Gu replied with a smile.

Ms. Chu smiled in return, "Then we really need to congratulate her."

"Wait for her to come out,"

"And when will that be?"

"Probably soon, when she gets hungry." Butler Gu said and walked away with a smile.

He had seen Zhang Liling coming into the house, but he deliberately avoided her for some reason best known to him.

*******

Mr. Fang's car pulled over in front of the house, and he quickly helped himself out.

He didn't go to work with his bodyguards, and they were not outside the house either. Maybe he sent them away for a break.

Bolin turned off the car engine before stepping out of the car and going behind to open the trunk, as Mr. Fang watched him with wrinkled nose.

Watching him take out the flowers from the trunk and it still remained fresh, he couldn't help but to comment, "The flowers didn't die?"

Bolin closed the trunk and replied with a smile, "No it didn't."

Mr. Fang scoffed. He was hoping the flowers would die.

Slipping his hands inside his pockets, he turned to walk towards the entrance of the house, while Bolin tookbout their workbags from the car.

Just as Mr. Fang was about to input the password to his house, he heard the sound of a car driving in and paused in his actions.

Turning around, he saw the familiar car pull over and immediately, his brows knitted in a tight frown.

'Why is he here?'

Bolin saw Chuanli's car pull over and smiled to himself but now, Mr. Fang would have questions for them.

Chuanli could feel the heated gaze from Mr. Fang as soon as he stepped out of his car with 2 gift bags and a bouquet.

Chuanli returned a cheeky smile to him, before leaning back inside his car to take out his workbag and close his car door.

As he got closer, Mr. Fang's eyes seemed to ask, 'What are you doing here?'

"I came for work, then I found out about Miss Zhang's last exams today, and decided to stop by a store to get her something."

Mr. Fang looked at him from the crown of his head to the sole of his feet before shifting that scrutinizing gaze back to Bolin.

The eyes of the two men followed him and wondered what he was looking at until they saw his gaze resting on the items in their hands.

"Mr. Fang, did you also get something for Miss Zhang?"

Bolin asked and without waiting for a response, he ignored the icy glare from him, and continued, "I'm sure that Miss Zhang will be moved by your kind gesture."

Mr. Fang completely ignored him and turned to input the password on the door, but it opened from the inside, and Butler Gu's face came into view.

Butler Gu had seen the trio at the door through the monitor and wondered why they were not coming in.

Seeing all those items in their hands, he had to open the door for them.

Mr. Fang walked into the house, ignoring his greeting, leaving him to wonder who offended him.

"Butler Gu, is Miss Zhang back from school?" Chuanli asked with an expectant gaze.

"Yes, Miss Zhang is back." The butler replied and shut the door behind them before coming to take a few things from his arms.

"I need to put this down." Bolin passed the bouquet to Chuanli before going up the stairs.

He stil had to put Mr. Fang's workbag in his study, before checking with him on what to do next.

Chuanli took the bouquet from him and followed the butler to the dining room.

*******

In Mr. Fang's bedroom...

Mr. Fang was still thinking about the scene he saw earlier. His personal assistant and doctor getting a congratulatory gift for his servant, and he the employer, didn't bring anything.

p He was begining to wonder if they had plan to do this from the beginning, and why they did it.

With his knowledge, he could tell that they were not close to her, yet they got her something.

'Is there something I'm missing?' He thought to himself while pacing up and down his room.

It was the knock on his door that interrupted his thoughts.

"Come in..." His agitated tone rang out.

Bolin slowly opened the door before stepping in and closing the door behind.

"Sir, I just put your workbag in the study. Would you like us to go down to the la to wait for you first?"

Mr. Fang finally got something to distract himself. He waved his hand with a frown. "Ask the housekeeper to serve the food first, while I quickly have a bath. We will get to work as soon as we finish eating. Dr. Li is here, so he can be off help with the first experiment."

Bolin felt relieved and left his sight.

At least, they would get to rest and eat before going straight to work.

Also, they would get the opportunity to hand in gifts to Zhang Liling.

Bolin came downstairs and passed the instructions from Mr. Fang to the housekeeper.

"He is taking a shower, should I serve the food now?" Ms. Chu asked with raised brows.

She was worried about the food going a little lower under the temperature, and had to confirm.

"Yes, please..." Bolin said before going to the dining area to find Chuanli, and his eyes widened at what he saw.

"You bought a cake?" He asked as he quickly trotted over.

Chuanli smiled at him while setting a few things up on the dining table.

There was a cake and some chocolates. Now, he was holding a half-blown balloon in his hand.

"I thought it would be good to have a cake, so I included. But I forgot to get a bottle of wine, so now, I'm left with no option than to borrow one from Bingwen. I'm sure he wouldn't mind."

Chuanli replied as he fixed his gaze on the butler that was approaching them with a bottle of wine in his hand.

Bolin followed his gaze and looked even more alarmed.

He couldn't help asking after watching the butler put the wine bottle down next to the cake.

"Dr. Li, are you sure all of this is okay? You are using Mr. Fang's dining room, and taking his things without his permission."

Chuanli tied the mouth of the balloon and fastened it with a thread. "Actually, none of this is okay. But I'm just banking on the other part of his heart that doesn't seem dead yet."

"You could get banned from coming here..." Bolin reminded him with a worried gaze.

"Then Miss Zhang would have to repay me in the future," Chuanli retorted.
