Xue sat down, feeling a bit awkward, maybe she overreacted when she thought the door was broken. Shaking her head,she looked at the breakfast neatly placed on the table. A cup of steaming golden-brownish tea was next to a plate with a few cream rolls with pieces of strawberries on top. Another bowl contained diced fruits, it was a light meal. Xue secretly threw a glance, only to see her husband quietly tidying up the room. He didn't seem to notice her gaze and kept himself busy, Xue stared at him, a bit pensive, then she started to eat.
In the bedroom two people were peacefully keeping each other in company, one was sipping the drink and the other had his eyes glued to the PC's screen. The latter had his lips slightly curved up, he clearly saw her body relaxing after biting the pastries, it seemed that it was true that most of the girls liked the sweet flavor. He mentally noted down her reaction to the food that he brought, he had to pick out her favorites. If the assistant was here, he'd probably think that he was a fake, not his stone-faced boss. What about his previous statement about a ' contractual marriage ' ? And no developing feelings ??? Where did all those go ?
In truth even Cheng Feng didn't realize that his action towards Xue had become more and more thoughtful. When did it happen ? Was it the time when he saw her sick appearance ? Or the first time, when he saw her strange yet beautiful appearance with that wig ?
Well, he completely forgot about his initial purpose, so now, he was in his current situation. And between the two, only one stayed firm on the contract rules.
Later, in the dressing room, a lively rustle was heard, " My little muse! Try this on, I've especially tailored it for you, uh ? It's a bit tight ? Did you gain a bit of fat ? ", Mrs. Yu stopped her tracks and pinched Xue's cheeks. Then she narrowed her eyes analyzing her body, " Mn…, yes, you did. But it's good news, finally some meat on those frail bones! ", Xue was a bit speechless. How did she become a bone ?? She shook her head, well at least she looked healthier. She touched the ribbon on her back, the light blue swimsuit was a one piece, two thin rows of string ran on her sides, ending with a soft bow on her hips. It was simple, yet classy and the most important thing, it was comfy. It didn't have too tight parts or over revealing parts. " You look absolutely gorgeous, if you weren't married to that wooden-faced guy, you'd have so many admirers ! ", she sighed, feeling pity that her muse had to spend a year of her life stuck to such a person. Xue chuckled, " Why do you guys keep calling him that ? ", " Mn? Isn't he with that face when you guys are alone ? ", " Not really, I think it's comfortable around him ? ". A loud thud was heard, " Little Xue, is he bullying you ? Tell me, I'll beat him up, then take you back to my house! ", Mrs. Yu was stupefied and terrified, did Xue get the wrong medicine this morning ? How could such an annoying guy be comfortable to be around ?! Xue shook her head, " He's quite attentive and he isn't too intrusive. So I'm quite satisfied with it, at least he isn't the abusive type, right ? ". She smiled softly, yes she was lucky somehow, when she was still in the hospital, she saw so many things that made her disgusted towards the people. Abandoned newborns, mothers left alone and so on…. As if each person wore a mask outside and when no one was looking, it would become a monster.
" Sis, are you guys ready ? We've been waiting for a few hours already ", a lazy voice interrupted the two, " Brat, what are you saying ? It's not even twenty minutes! ", Mei Lin yelled back, arching her brows, her mood went down when she heard Cheng Feng praised, then her twin joined the group. She rubbed her temple, breathe, yes breathe and ignore! " Xue, take your time, there's no hurry ", " Oh, I'm ready ", Xue replied then she pulled the fiery woman, " Let's go ? ".
Outside the door, three guys were waiting, Cheng Feng threw a brief glance to Ye Huang, this guy should keep his mouth shut sometimes. The latter was completely ignoring him, as he leaned on the frame door looking at the floor. He had sunglasses on, so his gaze was hidden, he was secretly admiring Dr. Jun, his unbuttoned shirt revealed toned muscles.
Finally the door opened, Cheng Feng raised his head, and was mesmerized again. Her hair was tied up in a chignon, revealing her delicate face. Her light colored swimsuit complemented her fair skin, revealing her slim legs. He unconsciously gulped, taking a deep breath, he offered his hand to her. Xue smiled and accepted it, this made her recall the wedding day, he made the same gesture. " Did you wear sun protection ? ", " Yes, Mrs. Yu helped me ". He nodded, unable to shift his gaze from her. As they walked away arm by arm, leaving behind three people, " Ugh, I'm starting to regret coming here ", Mei Lin was annoyed, but kept it for herself, afterall she was the uninvited guest, so. " Shall we get going too ? ", Lei Feng asked, finding the situation a bit funny, " Sure, sure, Lei Lei, let's go ". Ye Huang stood straight and pushed him towards the exit, the latter smiled and let him. Mrs. Yu felt like she was the third wheeling between the two pairs. Wait, what ? Two pairs, realizing this her eyes widened, this brat ! Did he have some improper thoughts on the doctor ?! She hurried to catch them up, then an unpleasant and familiar voice drifted from her back, " Where is brother in law, I don't see him. Maybe he's already on the beach ? ", a girl walked past her, wearing a skin-tight black swimsuit, attracting a lot of playful gazes. She wore a pair of purple sunglasses while holding a drink, she looked around and kept walking, swaying her hips. " Why on earth is this trouble maker here ? ". Mrs. Yu's mood immediately lit up, it seemed like the day wasn't going to be boring, afterall.
