Master's Little Girl Has Grown Up

0As they walked out, Chu Xi pulled on Ling Ke's sleeve and shook her head slightly.     1

    

Ling Ke was stunned for a moment, then he understood what she meant. He said in a low voice, "Don't worry, I won't mention it anymore."    

    

Chu Xi nodded, and then she felt relieved.    

    

As they walked, they chatted. Faang Zui suddenly asked, "Alliance Master, when will Young Master Huo return? There is still a document that he needs to sign."    

    

Shi Qian said, "It should be soon. He said that he will come back after a week."    

    

Chu Xi looked at the two of them and pursed her lips. She did not say anything, thinking that Huo Fei would not return for the time being.    

    

It was already ten o'clock at night when they returned home after the meal.    

    

Chu Xi walked into the room and immediately saw Chu Feng sitting on the sofa, waiting for her.    

    

"He's back."    

    

"Yes." Chu Xi smiled and walked towards him, but her smile did not reach his eyes. She was a bit worried about Huo Yan.    

    

"Why does it seem like you're not happy?" Noticing the strange look in her eyes, Chu Feng pulled her to sit beside him and asked, "What's wrong? Did something happen?"    

    

Chu Xi shook her head, turned around, and leaned on his shoulder. She said in a soft voice, "I just feel a bit tired."    

    

"If you're tired, then you should rest early."    

    

"Okay." Chu Xi suddenly reached out and hugged his neck. She smiled and said, "Carry me. I'm drunk and can't move."    

    

Her bright eyes clearly did not have the slightest bit of drunkenness.    

    

Chu Feng still lovingly carried her up and returned to his room. He suddenly said, "Then… Do you need me to help you bathe?"    

    

Chu Xi, "...Then there's no need."    

    

After coming out of the bathroom, Chu Xi walked to the bedside table and looked at her phone. There was a message from Shen Ruyu.    

    

[Xi, can we meet tomorrow?]    

    

After hesitating for a moment, Chu Xi replied, [Okay.]    

    

Shen Ruyu: [Can you come to my house?]    

    

Chu Xi replied, [Well, I'll go there at noon tomorrow.]    

    

Shen Ruyu: [Okay. I'll wait for you.]    

    

Recently, Shen Ruyu had been practicing her culinary skills, and had made great progress.    

    

This afternoon, she prepared a table full of dishes, which was clearly much better than the first time she had sat down.    

    

"Xi, these are all prepared for you. Have a try and see if it tastes good." Shen Ruyu said gently.    

    

Chu Xi smiled, "It looks good."    

    

"Then quickly have a taste."    

    

Chu Xi picked up the chopsticks and put a piece of the dish into her mouth. The taste was indeed very good, and it could be seen that the person who cooked it was very attentive.    

    

"It's very delicious."    

    

Shen Ruyu smiled, "That's good."    

    

Actually, Shen Ruyu had always wondered why Chu Xi had suddenly changed her attitude towards her. She had always wanted to ask, but she did not know how to start.    

    

The two of them ate quietly. Shen Ruyu wanted to say something a few times, but she hesitated every time. In the past, she was very decisive when it came to everything, but when it came to Chu Xi, she could not be so decisive.    

    

Seeing that she was about to say something, Chu Xi suddenly asked, "Do you want to say something?"    

    

Shen Ruyu looked at her and finally asked, "Xi, why did you... Why did you suddenly forgive me?"    

    

After a few seconds of silence, Chu Xi slowly said, "I didn't forgive you, but I don't blame you either."    

    

"Did something happen? What happened that night when you suddenly left?"    

    

"I was poisoned a while ago, and I couldn't make the antidote for a while. I thought that I might die, and at that moment, I realized that I missed this world so much and couldn't bear to leave."    

    

"What… What!" Shen Ruyu looked at her in shock. "Why didn't you tell me that I could think of a way? How are you now?"    

    

"Don't worry." Chu Xi smiled relaxedly and said indifferently, "I'm fine now. The poison has already been cured. I suddenly came to find you because I didn't want Chu Feng to notice my abnormality, and also… Actually, I still have to thank you. Thank you for bringing me into this world. Although you abandoned me before, the heavens treated me well. I met the best person in the world, and I was very happy."    

    

When she was not a couple with Chu Feng in the past, although she was afraid of death, afraid of leaving this world, and afraid of leaving Chu Feng, she did not have a strong desire to live. Because if she left, Chu Feng would no longer have to risk his life for her.    

    

But now, it was different. She was already together with Chu Feng. She loved him more than before, and she loved him to the core. So she was really afraid, afraid that she would never see Chu Feng again.    

    

Shen Ruyu: "Sorry…"    

    

"You have said these three words too many times. There's no need to say anymore. I won't ignore you in the future, but as for the others… I might need some time."    

    

Shen Ruyu had never dared to hope for too much. She immediately said, "I understand. As long as you are willing to see me, I will be satisfied."    

    

Chu Xi did not say anything else and continued to eat.    

    

"Right, did you and Chu Feng plan to get married?" Shen Ruyu asked.    

    

Chu Xi nodded. "Yes."    

    

"Can I participate in the preparations for the wedding?"    

    

Chu Xi looked at her and paused for a moment. "Aren't you worried that my relationship with you will be exposed?"    

    

"I don't care. I'm just afraid that you will mind."    

    

Chu Xi held her chopsticks with her fingers and said after a while, "Forget it."    

    

Because of Huo Yan's matter, Huo Fei temporarily stayed in Country E.    

    

"Brother, you really don't need to stay for me. Go back to the company. I really don't have anything to do with you."    

    

Huo Yan did not want to delay her brother's business because of her. Furthermore, he might cause her parents to suspect him if he stayed for a few months.    

    

Huo Fei said, "I have already arranged everything. Besides, I didn't stay for you because of you. Don't be so sentimental."    

    

Huo Yan, "... Then what else can you do?"    

    

Huo Fei, "Of course it's to make money! Alright, I won't talk to you anymore. I'll go out for a while."    

    

"Where are you going? Are you looking for Mr. Ci?"    

    

"Don't look for him. It's about the company."    

    

"Oh."    

    

Looking at Huo Fei's retreating figure, Huo Yan felt conflicted. She was ashamed of her family. In the future, she would definitely be filial to her brother and her parents.    

    

"Miss Huo, have some fruits." The private female doctor walked over with a basin of washed fruits.    

    

Huo Yan took a grape and put it in her mouth. "This grape isn't that sour."    

    

The female doctor smiled and said, "Miss, this is the most sour grape."    

    

"Is that so?" Huo Yan ate another grape, but still felt that it wasn't enough.    

    

"How about I bring some sour plum?"    

    

"No need. I'll just eat fruits. Didn't they say that a baby will be prettier if he eats more fruits?"    

    

"Miss, you're so beautiful. The baby will definitely inherit your genes and be as pretty as you."    

    

Huo Yan smiled and subconsciously blurted out, "Mr. Ci is even prettier." As soon as she finished speaking, she suddenly realized what she had said, and her expression changed.    

    

The female doctor was stunned.    

    

Huo Yan said again, "I mean a friend. I don't mean anything else. Don't think about it, and don't say it carelessly, okay?"    

    

The female doctor smiled and said. "I understand."    

    

"Alright, go and do your work. I'll call you if there's anything."    

    

"Okay." The female doctor turned around and left.    

    

Huo Yan bit her lips and cursed in her heart. Was she crazy? Why didn't she think before she spoke!    

    

Could it be that she was really a fool for three years after her first pregnancy?!    

    

She had to be careful and stop talking nonsense.
