“Tm pretty good.” Xia Wanyuan sensed the concern in Wei Zimu’s eyes. “What about you?”
Wei Zimu seemed to be especially surprised that Xia Wanyuan would take the initiative to care about him. He could not hide the smile on his face. “I’m quite good, Sister Wanyuan.”
As Wei Zimu spoke, he handed a small box to Xia Wanyuan. “This is for you. I heard from the people over there that it’s delicious.”
Wei Zimu had been on a business trip in Suhang recently. The desserts there were famous for being exquisite. The most famous was the pastry from a hundred-year-old shop, but that shop only provided a hundred boxes a day.
After hearing that, he especially woke up at five in the morning and queued for three hours. Then, he rushed to the airport and brought the dessert back with an ice pack the entire time.
There was still some mist at the edge of the box. It was obvious that he had just taken it out of the ice bag.
“Thank you.” Xia Wanyuan reached out to take the cold box. “I remember hearing you say before why you brought snacks from all over the world.”
“Mm.” Wei Zimu nodded with gentleness in his eyes. “In the past, when I was begging on the streets, there was a young lady who would give me a little of her snacks every day. I promised her that when I had money in the future, I would help her collect delicious snacks in the world.”
“You said you didn’t find her.” Seeing the emotions in Wei Zimu’s eyes, Xia Wanyuan lowered her eyes slightly and restrained the expression in them.
“Mm,” Wei Zimu replied softly.
Xia Wanyuan stopped asking, and Wei Zimu stopped talking.
Xia Wanyuan also reached out her hand, but Jun Shiling stopped her with a look. “Put that box aside. It’s hurting me.”
Xia Wanyuan put the box aside, not knowing whether to laugh or cry. Then, Jun Shiling hugged her.
After returning to the manor, Jun Shiling surprisingly did not stick to Xia Wanyuan. Instead, he handed her a rare ancient book.
“Study this here. I’m going to test you later.” Jun Shiling pulled out a stool in the study for Xia Wanyuan and pressed her down on the chair.
“Jun Shiling, what are you playing at this time??” Xia Wanyuan felt that there must be a reason for the abnormality. Normally, when she was reading, Jun Shiling would insist on pestering her, but today, he was actually willing to let her be alone.
“Is there anything wrong with letting you study? Sit properly. There will be punishment if you fail the test later.” Speaking of punishment, Jun Shiling’s eyes flickered for a moment as he looked at Xia Wanyuan meaningfully, causing her to glare at him.
“Leave quickly.”
Jun Shiling smiled and kissed Xia Wanyuan on the forehead, then closed the study door.
Xia Wanyuan flipped through the book in her hand. It was really a rare good book. It immediately attracted Xia Wanyuan’s gaze.
By the time Xia Wanyuan was halfway through the door, it was still quiet. Xia Wanyuan looked at the time. It had been two hours since Jun Shiling left.
Xia Wanyuan raised an eyebrow. That was strange. What was Jun Shiling up to?
Xia Wanyuan put down her book and followed the voice downstairs.
Looking at Jun Shiling’s actions from afar, Xia Wanyuan was surprised.
