Chapter 10: Chapter 10; Yuxi, we need to talk
After opening the door, the lights were turned on, so he walked in before closing the door with his leg, walked over to the bed, and placed her on it.
"I don't think it would be advisable to take a shower now, I will make some warm ginger water for you so that you don't catch some cold!" He gently ruffled her head hair exiting while closing the door.
He went down the stairs over to the kitchen, he left the water to boil while he went over to the parking lot. The other family members scattered away to take care of their injuries; no matter what they said, he would still beat them up, so it was best if they escaped into their rooms first.
"Li Feng, I want you to purchase a nice mansion and it's good if it's in an isolated area but closer to the company building and city." He picked up his bag that contained just essential stuff leaving other bags in there.
"Okay, Third Master Mu..." Hearing that, he immediately knew they weren't going abroad any time soon, and it had been postponed indefinitely. This man had changed his mind last minute.
He hoped he wouldn't get hurt again by her.
"Okay, Good night..." He left with his bag that contained those private things. Li Feng couldn't understand his master's feelings, Zhou Yuxi needed to give him a little bit of attention, and everything would move in her favor.
Third Master Mu got back into the kitchen, placed his bag on a counter stool, and brewed a cup of ginger water before picking up the bag and going back upstairs. He couldn't see anyone in the living room, and seemingly, they had scattered away.
He placed the bag down, opened the door before picking it up, and strode into the bedroom, tossing the bag onto the bed before giving her that ginger warm water for her to drink.
She received the cup and took a few sips before giving it back to him. It was warm and nicely brewed.
"You can finish it up! Not much is remaining inside!" He frowned gazing at the amount of ginger water that was remaining inside the cup.
Uncle, you can have that... I know you haven't taken any and you were soaked under that rain too! Don't catch a cold!" Her voice was soft and mellow, he didn't know why she did look different than usual. This was how sweet she was when he had met her back in the orphanage.
"Oooh..." He drank the remaining contents before placing the cup on top of the coffee table.
He opened his bag and got two sets of black silk pajamas that had strings on the waist and you could pull and tie if the waist was too wide. He passed one of the pairs over to her.
"Since you don't have any better-sleeping clothes, you can wear that..." Seeing the condition of that room and the kind of clothes placed on that wobbling table, he knew nothing good would come out of there.
Zhou Yuxi got up with that blanket wrapped around her body, tightly holding the pajamas before going over to the bathroom, and changed into those silk pajamas before exiting.
They were so soft and sweetly scented. This was the only scent she wanted to smell for an eternity.
"Yuxi, we need to talk..." Third Master Mu didn't know if he was doing the right thing by requesting her to have a chat or if she would be dismissive and see him as someone who was trying to meddle with her life affairs.
Zhou Yuxi's heart missed a beat as her heartbeat accelerated and beat faster than usual! She didn't know what he wanted to say but hoped he didn't want to still go abroad, but what if he still wanted to? Her eyes instinctively began tearing up.
