An Adorable Wife and her Boss - C217 Christmas Eve (3)
Ji Lingyue saw that Yun Chi was preparing to remove the necklace on his neck, so he grabbed her hand and said, “Wear it.” I like it!
“But, didn’t you choose a gift for others?” Yun Chi asked in confusion.
“En!” Ji Lingyue could read Yun Chi’s expression, “You’re my wife, Christmas Eve, who else can you give a gift to?”
This IQ was really worrisome!
Hm? Yun Chi looked at Ji Lingyue in a daze, her hand stopping in the air, “A gift for me?”
“Right, why else would I bring you here?” Ji Lingyue grabbed Yun Chi’s hand that was held in mid air, “Let’s go, eat with me, I’m still hungry!”
Yun Chi followed behind Ji Lingyue, and for a moment, she did not completely accept the gift.
This … this was a Christmas Eve gift?
Her eyes widened, still in disbelief.
His other hand caressed the necklace on his neck, caressing the contours of his body. It seemed like all of this was real, not a dream …
Looking at the backs of Ji Lingyue and his departing figures, the clerk couldn’t help but cry out: If I had such good fortune, I would really be lucky!
Dinner, Ji Lingyue booked a room at the top floor of the Jihua Hotel. It was a 360 degree house with a luxurious western feast, candlelight shone on it, and a solo violin. With the slow flowing of the music, Yun Chi finally calmed down from her nervousness and awkwardness.
“Eat more, you’re too skinny!” Ji Lingyue cut the steak from his plate and handed it over to Yun Chi.
“En!” Yun Chi took the steak that Ji Lingyue passed to him, and started to eat it small bite, trying to appear as graceful as possible.
He had seen Yun Chi and Zhou Ziwei gulp down food when they ate, and when he saw her pretending to be elegant, he felt that she was extremely unfamiliar with them, even lacking in something.
“Doesn’t it taste good?”
“No, it’s very delicious.” Yun Chi put down her fork; she was still not used to everything that was happening in front of him, the shock she had today was already big enough.
“Then eat more.” Ji Lingyue did not speak anymore.
Yun Chi silently ate, thinking: Tang Xiaoan should be very elegant when eating steak, no matter how much she learns, she won’t be able to learn it, is Big Brother Ling Yue disappointed in him?
After dinner, both of them were silent on the way back.
Ji Lingyue thought that Yun Chi’s liking for him was still too formal.
Yun Chi recalled everything that happened that night. Was the arrival of happiness too unreal?
In green garden, Granny Ji had already been waiting in the living room for a long time.
Aunt Xue looked at the clock on the wall and advised, “Old madam, Young Master and Young Madam should be back soon, why don’t you go back to your room to rest?”
“It’s fine. It’s not like I can’t fall asleep anyways, so I didn’t purposely wait for them. You can go and get busy. After you’re done, you can rest early.”
How could she sleep? She definitely had to wait for the both of them tonight, since this was an auspicious day, so she had to let the two of them spend the night together.
When Ji Lingyue and Yun Chi returned, before they could even enter the house, Aunt Xue opened the door and revealed in a low voice, “Young Master, the old lady hasn’t rested yet, she has been waiting for you in the living room.”
“Grandmother still hasn’t rested?” Ji Lingyue really couldn’t think of what his grandmother wanted.
Looking at Yun Chi’s nervous expression, Ji Lingyue consoled him, “Don’t worry, there’s still me?”
Sure enough, as soon as they entered the house, Grandma asked, “Why did you two come back so late? Didn’t you see what time it was? “The work will never end, how many times have I told you …”
“Grandma,” Ji Lingyue didn’t need to think about it, he knew what he would say next. He had heard these words at least a hundred times, “We didn’t listen to you and had a good meal outside. We only returned after two people’s world, wasn’t this what you wished for?”
“Eat? You two? ” Granny Ji was still a little doubtful. Seeing Yun Chi nod her head with sincerity, he finally believed it.
“If I tell you, you won’t believe me. If your granddaughter-in-law says that, you’ll believe me without a doubt. Grandmother, I’m going to get jealous too.” In order to ease the atmosphere, Ji Lingyue joked, “Aren’t you being a little too obvious?”
“What do you mean?” Granny Ji glared at Ji Lingyue a few times, “Since you have to accompany Little Chi well, I won’t bother about it anymore. At night, we stewed Laminaria Decoction and drank a bowl of it to rest a bit earlier. ”
“Grandma stewed it herself? I’ve told you so many times that you must rest up properly. When Ji Lingyue was young, he liked the Laminaria Decoction that his grandma stewed the most. Now that his grandma was old, he could still cook the soup for him occasionally.
“Although Grandmother is old and useless, I think it’s fine to occasionally make soup with my Baby Three.” Granny Ji told Aunt Xue over and over again, “Bring the soup over with them. It just so happens that Little Chi hasn’t tasted my stewed soup yet.”
Aunt Xue brought over two bowls of soup. One was a big bowl, and the other was a small bowl.
Ji Lingyue gave the big bowl to Yun Chi as if it was a matter of course, “Laminaria Decoction is my good dish, eat this bowl!”
Seeing Yun Chi accepting the big bowl of Laminaria Decoction, Granny Ji restrained the panic in her heart, and hurriedly interrupted, “Wait, let’s drink that small bowl of Laminaria Decoction.”
Yun Chi stopped what she was doing and looked at his grandmother in astonishment, “Grandmother, I was just saying that you were biased, why did you … I’ve eaten so many times already, what’s wrong with giving a large portion to Yun Chi? ”
Granny Ji had nothing to say, she couldn’t listen to Ji Lingyue either, if she knew this would happen, she would have pretended to be the same, and picked a different color bowl instead.
Ji Lingyue laughed, looked at Yun Chi, then said: “Quickly drink, after you eat, go back to your room and rest.”
Yun Chi had just scooped a spoonful, but before she could even feed it to her mouth, she was interrupted by her grandmother, “Wait, Little Chi, drink that small bowl.”
“Grandma?” Ji Lingyue could not hold it in anymore, “Just what are you trying to do?”
“Girl, how can you eat so much before you go to sleep? Which young lady doesn’t like beauty now? Eating too much salty food before you go to sleep will affect your skin’s recovery.”
Granny Ji could only come to a sudden realization and come up with a reason that was not really a reason.
Ji Lingyue disagreed, wasn’t this reason too far-fetched?
Looking at their expressions, Yun Chi smiled and said to Ji Lingyue, “Let’s change bowls. Grandma said exactly what I wanted to say. “This is Grandmother’s wish, and also my good fortune. No matter what, I have to savor it.”
Hearing Yun Chi’s words, Ji Lingyue could only accept the large bowl of Laminaria Decoction, just that he felt that something was off tonight, but he couldn’t put his finger on it.
“Baby Three, what are you standing there for, quickly drink it while it’s hot, when it’s cold, the taste will not be good.” Granny Ji was afraid that something unexpected would happen, and immediately advised Ji Lingyue.
Ji Lingyue looked at the Laminaria Decoction. This was his grandmother who loved him the most, so why would she harm him?
Only when he saw that there was not a single drop of Laminaria Decoction left in Ji Lingyue’s bowl did Granny Ji finally heave a long sigh of relief.
“Alright, I finished the soup. Have you had some warm water?”
“Thank you, Grandma. The soup you make is always the best.” Even grandma was still a parent to Ji Lingyue.
“Baby Three will still pick up on the nicest words. You two, it’s getting late. Go back to your rooms and sleep! It’s time for me to go back to my room to rest. ”
“Grandmother, you should have rested earlier, otherwise you might have a headache again.” Ji Lingyue stood up and pushed his grandmother back into the sickroom.
When Ji Lingyue returned to his room, he found Yun Chi bathing in the bathroom. Hearing the sound of water splashing in the bathroom, an unbearable heat was spreading in her heart.
Strange, what happened to me tonight? Was it because of the afternoon wine? His alcohol tolerance wasn’t that bad …
He turned down the temperature of the air conditioner. Was it because the heater was turned on too high? He felt very frustrated.
Ji Lingyue took off his clothes and went into the other bathroom. It was so hot and stuffy, it should feel much better after taking a shower, right?
After Yun Chi finished showering, she changed into a simple and conservative silk pajamas and wiped her hair half dry.
After exiting the bathroom, Yun Chi tidied up the clothes that Ji Lingyue left on the sofa and placed them in the laundry basket. Then, she took out the shirt and tie that Ji Lingyue would be wearing tomorrow …
At this time, Ji Lingyue, who was wrapped in a towel and half naked came out of the bathroom. It was unknown why, even though he used cold water to wash the water, he still found the heat unbearable.
Could it be that he was sick?
Once he walked out of the bathroom, what entered his eyes was Yun Chi’s smooth and white calves. Looking at it, with her delicate body and her thin clothes, that endless spring glow caused Ji Lingyue to have wild thoughts …
Ji Lingyue shook his head, dispelling the evil thoughts in his mind. It was strange, after getting along for so many days, he had always been extremely self-controlled, what was going on?
Yun Chi tidied up her clothes, turned around and jumped, “Lingyue, why did you come out and stand there silently? It’s time to rest. Don’t tell me that you’re still planning to go to the study to look at documents? ”
These words reminded Ji Lingyue, “Yes, there’s still mail to be processed, I’ll be going to the study room first.”
Eh? Yun Chi looked at Ji Lingyue in shock as she walked towards the door, and immediately shouted: “Lingyue!”
Ji Lingyue turned around, “What’s wrong?”
“Is this how you go to the study?” Should I add on some clothes, just in case I get cold… ” Yun Chi’s voice got softer and softer as she thought about whether Lingyue had a fever or not.
Hearing Yun Chi’s words, Ji Lingyue lowered his head to look. Only then did he realize that because of the heat in his body, he had actually come out naked with a towel wrapped around his upper body. He had even planned to go to the study room like this …
“Lingyue?”
“Hmm?” Ji Lingyue’s throat was a little hoarse and thirsty, which was different from his usual thirst.
“What happened to your voice?” Yun Chi was extremely worried, “Is she sick?”
“Nope.” Just hearing Yun Chi’s voice made the deepest part of her heart feel numb, and was even somewhat unable to control herself. “Go and sleep first!”
Yun Chi clearly discovered that something was wrong with Ji Lingyue’s voice. She was fine a moment ago, but now she stepped forward and grabbed Ji Lingyue’s arm. Don’t tell me you didn’t listen to the doctor’s orders to eat spicy food? “
