When someone knocked on the door, Bai Xiao happened to yawn. His intuition told him that it was Hu Ke, but it was already 10:30 pm. According to her schedule, she should be sleeping. It was definitely not a good thing to knock on the door now.
Bai Xiao did not plan to deal with it. He waited calmly for Hu Ke to push the door open and enter again. However, ten minutes had passed. Not only did no one enter, but there was also no more knocking on the door.
Bai Xiao raised his eyebrows, but he still could not suppress his curiosity. He walked forward and opened the door.
There was no Hu Ke outside the door as Bai Xiao had imagined. There was only a lonely package on the ground. There was even a bow on the pink bag. Bai Xiao felt like he had been tricked, but he still picked up the bag and brought it back to the room.
A faint fragrance came from the pink bag. Bai Xiao suddenly remembered the calming incense he had bought from Hu Ke in the morning. He opened the packaging and saw that there were also small incense sticks in independent packaging inside.
Bai Xiao took out a matching incense plate and lighter, opened it, and lit it. A refreshing smell spread in the air bit by bit. Bai Xiao took a deep breath and let it out.
He was indeed much better. At least his head didn't hurt so much anymore.
Bai Xiao closed his eyes and leaned against the back of the chair. Thinking of the bowl of Yang Chun noodles that night and the incense that was sent over, Bai Xiao magnanimously decided not to pursue the matter of Hu Ke barging into his room.
Downstairs, Bian Fang had finished heating milk. As usual, she added a spoonful of sugar and was about to send it upstairs. She had to do what the young master had instructed her to do. Coincidentally, it was time for Hu Ke to sleep. It would not be a bother to send it up.
"Nanny Bian, is this for Young Madam? I'll send it up for you. Rest early." Guo Wen took the cup from Bian Fang's hand and smiled sweetly at her.
Guo Wen was a university student who worked part-time. She happened to see that Bai Xiao's villa was hiring servants, so she came over. The only thing she had to do every day was to help to weed the garden and plant trees.
She was a student in the gardening department, so she took on this job. Other than that, she took turns doing housework with another university student every day. One of them was in charge of mopping the floor, and the other was in charge of sweeping the floor. The work content was idle and the salary was high, so Guo Wen worked in Bai Xiao's villa for two months.
Bian Fang had a good impression of her. This child could endure hardship and was good at gardening. Bian Fang did not have any vigilance against her. When she heard Guo Wen wanting to take the initiative to deliver milk for her, she handed it to her and returned to her room to rest.
Guo Wen carried the milk upstairs. She took out a packet of powder from her pocket at the corner of the stairs and secretly poured it into the milk. After the powder completely fused with the milk, she knocked on Hu Ke's door.
"Young Madam, I'm here to bring you milk for tonight."
Hu Ke opened the door. It was the servant who brought her fish soup again. The little girl looked about the same age as her. She should be a part-time student.
Hu Ke finished the entire glass of milk in front of her, handed the glass to her, and climbed back into bed to sleep.
It was a good night's sleep.
Hu Ke and Bai Xiao returned to their initial interaction. Bai Xiao was busy going to the company every day to inspect the West Coast project. He left early and returned late, so he did not meet Hu Keyu. Hu Ke, on the other hand, was at home recuperating in peace. Wen Huai had also been busy with the planning with Bai Xiao and the others during this period of time. Without her, 1943 could still operate normally. It was just that Hu Ke did not go over to mix drinks.
Although some regular customers expressed their dissatisfaction, Wen Huai told them that Fox was not feeling well. In order to ensure the quality of her cocktails, she had to wait until she recovered before making a comeback. Therefore, although some people were dissatisfied, most people still chose to understand and wait.
Bai Xiao also had enough sleep under the effect of Hu Ke's calming incense. In the bidding competition a week later, he suppressed the others and obtained the commercial development rights of West Coast.
After the results were announced, Bai Xiao finally heaved a sigh of relief. Amidst the congratulations from the surrounding people, Bai Xiao smelled the calming fragrance on his clothes. He suddenly felt that he had to buy a small gift to reward Hu Ke.
