Chapter 12 - Take care of my brother (Edited)

INSIDE XIU MEI'S ROOM-

By the time she woke up 4 hours had passed. She got up from the floor and looked for the phone.

Thinking about the 'Monster Headache (Feng Jianyu)' in her house, she decided to call Feng Dingxiong and ask him to take his son back.

However, despite calling a hundred times, Feng Dingxiong's phone was unreachable. In frustration she chucked the phone hardly, it's screen shattered.

Biting her nails, she paced around the room.

'Think…think... Mei…think..."

'How will you handle this monster headache?'

'You both can't live under the same roof'

'You'll kill each other'

'Wait!! Are you afraid of him?

'Yes..no..no…you are not afraid of him'

'you are not that same Xiu Mei 7 years back'

'He can not bully you'

'And it might be that he would leave your house on his own accord'

'After all, he also hates you'

'yes…he will surely leave this house by tomorrow'

'No need to think about that worthless man'

'Come-on…get ready…and go to the living area'

'Let's face this'

She went to the bathroom tidied herself up and took a deep breath as she opened the door to go outside.

As soon as she turned towards the stairs she bumped into Feng Junjie.

Xiu Mei- 'OUCH'…. 'AHHH'

Feng Junjie- 'Owww….My head…My ass…My back'

At the very same time, Feng Junjie was exiting from Feng Jianyu's room and they both bumped into each other and fell backward on their hips.

"Owww…. Can you please watch your steps?" Xiu Mei complained rubbing her head.

"It was your mistake… you were looking somewhere else…OUCH…My back…" Feng Junjie retorted, whimpering in pain.

Xiu Mei got up and dusted off her clothes before offering her hand to Feng Junjie. "Come on get up…stop crying like a kid."

"Who are you calling a kid? And I am not crying," Feeling aggrieved he riposted and got up holding her hand.

"Whatever," Xiu Mei rolled her eyes and stealthily glanced at Feng Jianyu's closed room.

Feng Junjie noticed this, "Do you want to ask something?" raising his brows he asked her.

"Y... Yes! Is he inside?"

"Who? My brother? He is inside, come let me take you to meet him," Feng Junjie tried to tease her.

Hearing this Xiu Mei felt like someone has invited her to meet Yama, "NO…NO… NO... I was just wondering if he needs anything, Uncle Tom is available at his beck and call." She tried to act normal. "I have some important work to do… please excuse me!"

"One minute please," Feng Junjie stopped her, "I need a favor! I'm heading out for some important work… so… in the meanwhile can you please take care of him? I promise to return before dinner," Feng Junjie had a mischievous smile on his face. The only way to understand the situation between them was to bring them closer.

Xiu Mei's mind went blank. Her face turned gloomy. She did not want to come face to face with that monster. It's not that she was afraid but because he reminds her of something bad.

"I-I am so…."

Suddenly she heard a loud voice of the chopper coming from the garden.

"Please, You just have to give him his medicine. Brother is careless when it comes to his health… it's in the left side drawer….ok bye."

Feng Junjie did not give her any chance to reject and left the villa hurriedly.

Xiu Mei keeps staring at Feng Junjie's departing figure in shock.

"Young Miss?... Young Miss?..." It was butler Tom calling her.

"Huh?...."

"Young Miss, lunch is ready," Butler Tom jolted her from her reverie.

She asked Butler Tom to serve the lunch to Feng Jianyu in his room before heading to the dining table.

After lunch, she poured herself a cup of rose tea and picked the laptop. However, Feng Junjie's words kept on haunting her.....then she looked at the pending work….

Finally shrugging Feng Junjie's words out of her mind, she decided to concentrate on her work first.

By the time her work was finished, it was already dark outside. She looked on her wristwatch and realized that she has to give medicine to monster Headache aka CEO Feng.

She sighed.... 'Such a headache. Am I a nurse?'

While walking towards Feng Jianyu's room she kept on pondering about how she was going to deal with the situation and within no time she found herself standing outside his room. She felt like the distance between the back garden and Feng Jianyu's room has shortened.

She stood outside the door contemplating whether she should go inside or not. But giving medicine was also important; after all, she had promised Feng Dingxiong to take care of his son diligently.

With lots of thought in mind, taking a deep breath she knocked on the door.

Inside, Feng Jianyu had long found out that someone was standing outside the door. Thanks to his special training he was always vigilant. Judging by the sound of light footsteps, he understood that the person standing outside was a woman. But he did not say anything and instead waited patiently to see how the person will act.

'KNOCK' 'KNOCK' KNOCK'

"Come in," A heavy male voice sounded.

She turned the knob and entered the room.

Feng Jianyu was sitting on the bed working on his laptop. He was wearing beige linen trousers and a white shirt. His long slender legs were crossed and his whole body emitted an intimidating aura.

When his gaze fell on her, she could feel his cold gaze piercing right through her body.

Unable to hold that gaze, Xiu Mei anxiously told him the purpose of her visit, "CEO Feng, before leaving your brother had requested me to give you the second dose of medicine."

Averting his gaze from her face, Feng Jianyu did not say anything and looked back at the laptop. But secretly his attention was on Xiu Mei.

She opened the drawer as specified by Feng Junjie and saw a medicine box with a prescription kept at the top. She read the prescription first and then took out the medicine as mentioned in it.

Picking the glass of water, she offered medicine to Feng Jianyu.

Seeing his eyes still glued to the laptop, Xui Mei snapped at him, "CEO Feng, if you're done pretending that you are working on the laptop then can you please take your medicine? I can't keep standing here for the whole day."

"Who told you to keep standing here?" without taking his eyes off of the screen he retorted back and pointed his thumb at the table, implying to keep the medicine there and leave.

She complied. But before leaving, she walked towards the balcony to close the door. There she saw some bowls kept on the table. Having a doubt she uncovered the lids one by one and saw that it was today's lunch.

'He skipped lunch? How will he recover? If he won't recover then how will he leave my house,' her brows scrunched.

Feeling Indignant she turned towards him, "CEO Feng I think you don't love your family." Resting her hands at the waist she used an indignant tone.

"What do you mean by this?" Looking straight into her eyes he asked furiously.

"Because if you do…. Then you'd have paid attention to your own health first. A person who can't even take care of himself, how he will be able to take care of his family. You know how worried they are for you?" She brought a food bowl from the balcony and showed it to him. "And you should know that your family is not limited to your family members. The entire Feng Corporation is your family… Think about those 3 million employees working under Feng Corporation. What will happen if anything goes wrong with you? Can you stop being so selfish?

I know you are a busy person….But haven't you heard a famous saying 'HEALTHY BODY HEALTHY MIND?' If you really want to get healed completely, then you have to take care of your health first."

Then she walked towards the table and picked an apple from the fruit basket. She peeled it and cut it into four pieces and placed it beside Feng Jianyu.

"Dinner will be ready by 7:00 and I will be waiting for you at the dining table." She was not saying but ordering him to come down at dinner time. 

With this sentence, she left the room confidently.
