"..." "Mhmm, okay, I understand …" After hanging up the phone, Hai Xiaomin looked up at the extra wheelchair beside the bed, then tapped her phone with her chin thoughtfully.

He didn't want to tell her family the truth in case they were worried, and on her side, it was a recovery period of seven days which he had long planned. She finally understood why Xue Ning said that this man was too perfect.

He was able to take every detail into account, to the point that he even took into consideration the minor details of how she was not used to using a walking stick!

She really did owe him a great favor …

In addition, Ling Yao also specially arranged for a person to take care of Hai Xiao Min.

The other party was a staff member of the Manor, whose name was Guan Xiang, whom Hai Xiao Min called Sister Guan.

"Sister Guan, did Ling Yao say when I could leave?" Hai Xiao Min was still a little worried about the situation at home.

"I'm not sure about that either." Guan Xiang smiled politely as she served the hot coffee in front of Hai Xiaomin.

"Thank you." Miss Hai took the coffee and asked thoughtfully, "How long will he be staying here before he returns to H City?"

"Mister Ling comes to the manor occasionally to inspect. She usually stays for a few days. As for the specific time …" She smiled and skipped the question, "Miss Hai, you can ask him directly. He has instructed me to come over for lunch with you at noon."

"I see." Hai Xiaoming smiled at her in understanding, picked up his coffee cup and slowly drank it.

Even though the other party didn't say much, she was still able to keenly perceive that Ling Shang did not come here for a vacation, but for a job. Did this Manor also have any LY project plans?

As expected, Ling Yao came over at noon, and since it was inconvenient for Hai Xiao Min to eat, he was kindly sent to her room. As for him, as the owner of the manor, it seemed that there was nothing unreasonable about him accompanying guests for a meal.

Noticing that Hai Xiao Min was eating without taking a bite, Ling Yao could not help but ask: "What's wrong? "Unpalatable?"

"Oh ~ that's not it." He saw Ling Yao staring at her, and suddenly frowned. Just when she was confused, he picked up a tissue and moved over, wiping the rice grains at the corner of her mouth, then sat back down, as if nothing had happened in the middle, and calmly answered, "That is?"

It was originally an ambiguous action, but due to the sudden occurrence and end of this event, the atmosphere hadn't even filled up yet. Hai Xiaoming momentarily forgot what she had originally wanted to say, and instead said, "Are you a germaphobe?"

"No, I'm just a bit more tidy." Ling Yao lowered his head and continued eating.

The meaning behind her words was to laugh at her for being a woman, for being unkempt and not loving to be clean at all?

Hai Xiaomin didn't mind using her most sinister thoughts to guess the other party's intentions.

No matter how she looked at his face, it was pleasing to the eye, and she could not find it in the least annoying. Perhaps, other than being a little annoying with his mouth, the things he did were truly annoying.

"Ling Yao, thank you." This time, she did not use Mister Ling's name on purpose.

Ling Yao lifted his eyes to meet hers. The girl's black and white eyes were filled with a gentle glow, so bright that it made his heart palpitate.

"Whether you save me, help me deal with my family, or... "Anyway, thank you for the rice grains just now." At the end, Hai Xiao Min suddenly felt a bit embarrassed. She didn't expect her to be so hypocritical!

What she did not expect was that the other party would not appreciate her. "No need, a verbal apology is meaningless to me, so I never accept that."

As he spoke, he picked up the pork chop and put it into the bowl.

He didn't even bother to reply back with a pleasantries. This man was truly … Hai Xiao Min was not happy, she intentionally squinted her beautiful eyes and teased: "Don't tell me Mr. Ling only accepts physical things?"

Hearing this, Ling Huang once again fixed his gaze on her, giving a meaningful look for a second, two seconds, three seconds. He then shook his head and said with disdain: "Forget it, I have no sense of accomplishment in bullying the handicapped!"

Disability your sister!

"Mister Ling." Hai Xiao Min smiled and shouted. She looked into the man's deep eyes and said gently, "Give my regards to your uncle!"

"Hmm?" After all, these refined words had caused Ling Yao to raise his eyebrows dangerously. However, Hai Xiaomin didn't seem to have the slightest reaction to it. She buried her head in the rice grill. It was rare for him to pull this off, so it wasn't easy for her either.

No matter what, it was enough to know that this man wasn't bad enough to take advantage of someone.

Soon, the meal was done. Without saying anything, Ling Yao grabbed the suit jacket given to him and left. Sister Guan wiped the sweat off her forehead and looked at the calm Hai Xiaomin with admiration.

It was truly admirable that she could not be affected by such a strong pressure from Mr. Ling.

After a long time, Hai Xiaomin suddenly remembered that she forgot to ask for proper business. She didn't have Ling Yao's cell phone number, so she could only ask Sister Guan where he had gone to.

"Mister Ling should be at the back of the mountain, where …" Guan Lao Da hesitated for a moment, but still explained, "The back of the mountain is the experimental plant base for LY. Other than the staff, outsiders are not allowed to enter."

Hai Xiao Min only half understood that the back of the mountain was a secret place and she couldn't enter. "Can I wait for him outside?"

"Of course." Those who were able to enter the manor had the right to sightsee.

Hai Xiao Min didn't know the way to the back of the mountain, and it wasn't convenient for her to move around in a wheelchair, so she pushed her to the intersection where they had to go through the back mountain. There were green stone steps on both sides of the road, and the woods on both sides led to the top of the mountain.

"I'll go tell Mister Ling." Sister Guan was going up.

Hai Xiao Min quickly called out to her, "No need, I'll just wait here for him to come out."

"This... "Mister Ling may have to stay for a period of time …" Actually, she was a little worried as well. She didn't know if he would be angry if she interrupted Mister Ling's work.

"It doesn't matter." Hai Xiao Min sat in the wheelchair and stretched her back. Facing the gentle breeze, she looked around at the scenery and smiled happily. This place was much better than staying in a room!

This wait lasted for two or three hours. As the sun's rays made him feel hot and drowsy, Hai Xiaomin unknowingly fell asleep.

When the morning glow filled the western sky, Ling Yuanzhi and a group of people chatted as they descended a flight of green stone steps from the mountain.

He was escorted to the front of the group, and thus two people appeared in front of him, which was also his first sight.

After taking a good look at the two's faces, he raised his palm and made a gesture indicating everyone to move softly. Seeing this action, Sister Guan immediately gave up on the idea of waking Hai Xiao Min up.
