After the never ending lunch at the old patriarch's house, Xue finally returned home. A white shadow sped through the floor and aimed straight at her, " Luette ! You grew up ! Oh, you also gained a bit of fat too!! ", Xue welcomed her kitten in her arms. She happily snuggled in her smooth fur. As if bothered, the cat put her paws on her head, as if she was telling her to stop. Xue giggled and picked her up, cuddling in her arm, " I'll be back at dinner time, I gotta go to work ", Cheng Feng spoke, " Okay, I'll be waiting ", those words were completely fluid and natural, even the maids blinked a few times. He smiled and left.
Xue withdrew back to her room, while holding the furball, she was feeling quite in a good mood now. A soft humming could be heard from her as she walked.
The servant started to gossip, since both of the masters weren't in the same room as them, " Did you notice that the madam and the master got closer ? ", " What do you know, little girl ? It was their honeymoon ", a middle aged lady replied to the younger one. " You should have noticed how those big families only arrange political marriages. It's rare to find a couple married for true love, and even rarer that they slowly fall in love after their marriage ", the young maids nodded, her eyes glistening. She did feel a bit sorry, but only for a brief moment, it wasn't about her after all.
Xue rolled in her bed, like a lazy worm, and picked up her PC. Luette found the perfect chance to loaf on her back, and after she got the comfy position, she stopped moving. Xue giggled, so adorable. Her attention drifted back to the screen again, it was a long time ago since she logged on that black account. It was time to settle things, She peacefully shut down her account, only posting a string, " R.I.P. ", a funny skull would pop out if someone decided to click on it. Then she transferred all her funds to a brand new bank account. After settling those matters, it was time for her nap time. She closed her eyes, holding the soft kitten in her arms.
" Don't worry, madam is currently sleeping in her room ", " Mn, if she needs something, get it ready immediately ", " Yes, Master ". The butler was smiling on the other end of the phone, it seemed like that their dear master was smitten by his lady. The other maids called it, the phrase of spoiling the wife till she gets tired off. In the household, the spring arrived.
On the other side, Cheng Feng was scrolling through a site, to check out the best bakery in the city. Under the advice of his secretary, he decided to surprise Xue. Well he said that every girl loved sweets, so this probably was hard to go wrong. Since his previous advice about the cute pet worked, he may just give it a try.
After carefully checking each location and items, he finally picked the one with the highest rating on the taste ranking.
He directly called the driver and arrived in less than half hour. He stepped out, followed by his assistant, who had a smug expression on his face. " If you like smiling so much, then don't stop ", " No, no, master, you saw wrong, I wasn't smiling ", he immediately turned his head on the other side.
" Welcome ", a few waitresses greeted them, but all of them had a nervous expression, they were fully aware that those two men who just walked in, weren't regular customers. One of them, who was the boldest, decided to be in charge of serving them, " Hello, what would you like to order, sirs ? ", she even winked fcoquettishly at the wooded guy. Assistant Lu shivered inside, what was this silly girl doing ?
But, since Cheng Feng was famous for being uncaring about the tender feeling of a young girl, he shortly answered, " I need to pick up a few cakes for my wife ", " Oh, .Yes, sure, please come this way, we have arranged them here ", she was clearly embarrassed, but still kept her professional attitude. She was scolding herself inwardly, it looked like she tried to seduce a married man, gosh. But in reality she was just trying to diffuse the tense situation.
A round of cakes were placed on a fridge shelf. On the top layer they were topped with puffs of creams, then a round of chocolate glazed ones, a round of cheesecakes and so on. Actually there were quite a lot to choose from. He narrowed his eyes, " I'll take the strawberry cream and the other lemon cheesecake, thanks ". " Coming right up ". In less than 5 minutes, everything was ready. He picked up his black card and swiped up, while leaving a few banknotes too in the tip jar.
" Wow, he's so handsome, it's a pity he's already married ", " Yeah, lucky the girl, I wish my boyfriend could buy me a cake too ! ", " Yes, then first stop saying that you need to lose weight ", " I don't care, if a guy does this to me everyday, I'll marry him ", " Sigh, such a hopeless dreamer, you know that such an hypothetical guy doesn't exist on earth ", " Well, how about we make a bet ? If I win, you'll have to buy me a week of boba, if I lose, I'll buy it for you! ", " Deal, but don't you dare to regret it later, hihihi ".
A lively chattering accompanied Cheng Feng while he carefully secured the packages in the arms of the poor aide. " Be careful, I'll cut them from your salary if you damage them ". Shen Min could only hold his tears, poor him, he was treated like a regular shopping carrier….. . He comforted himself thinking about the extra bonus he was going to receive at the end of the month. Yes, money paid half of the happiness, when needed of course.
