Chapter 35: The Little Glutton

“You’re a single dog, you wouldn’t understand.” Ruan Yu smiled at Mu Luoxi.

Mu Luoxi felt insulted, she looked at Ruan Yu with resentment, “Fine, fine, I’m a single dog, okay? You should rest well, don’t worry your husband, I’m worried too.”

Then Mu Luoxi told Ruan Yu that she had already resigned and asked her about the coffee shop’s upcoming opening. There were some things that needed to be done, and Ruan Yu was injured. As the future boss, she naturally had to take care of it personally.

Ruan Yu had been to the coffee shop once after it was renovated. It was only a few dozen meters away from Gu Yan Zhi’s workplace.

It was decorated according to her design drawings. There were still many places to decorate, she made a list of the necessary things, and the rest was left to Mu Luoxi to handle. She trusted Mu Luoxi’s taste.

“The keys aren’t with me, I’ll have someone send them to you tomorrow.” Ruan Yu said.

“Okay.” Mu Luoxi nodded, then she thought of something and asked, “A-Yu, there have been people following me recently, are they your people?”

Mu Luoxi asked the question in her heart. Originally, she thought those people wanted to hurt her, but after two days, those people didn’t seem to do anything. They just followed her wherever she went. She remembered what Ruan Yu had told her to be careful of Tang Qingning and Jiang Chen, and she had an answer in her heart.

Ruan Yu nodded, “They’re Gu Yan Zhi’s people. Luoxi, Jiang Chen disappeared, Tang Qingning found a new sugar daddy, I’m very worried about you. Let them follow you for a while, I’ll feel more at ease.”

Mu Luoxi understood, so she didn’t intend to hide it.

“Okay.” Mu Luoxi felt warm inside. Ruan Yu cared about her, what reason did she have to refuse? She also knew clearly that Tang Qingning was capable of anything. She had made her look so bad at the Gu residence that day, she couldn’t help but want revenge.

Mu Luoxi was afraid that Ruan Yu would be bored alone in the ward, so she stayed with her for a while. At five o’clock in the evening, Gu Yan Zhi arrived on time, carrying a packed meal from home.

Mu Luoxi turned her head and glanced at Gu Yan Zhi, she teased, “A-Yu, your husband is here, I’m not going to eat dog food anymore. I’ll go now, I’ll send you photos when I’m done decorating the coffee shop.”

“Okay.”

Mu Luoxi left the ward. Gu Yan Zhi opened the table beside the bed, unpacked the food, and placed it on the table.

Ruan Yu could tell at a glance that it was Tang Ma’s cooking. He had left to bring her food.

She looked at the peeled shrimp, her eyes sparkling, “There’s shrimp! I haven’t had it in a long time. How did Yan Zhi Ge Ge know I wanted to eat it?”

Gu Yan Zhi knew that when she was at the Gu residence, she never let Tang Ma make seafood dishes, but that didn’t mean she didn’t like it. “I dreamed about you telling me during my nap.”

He curled his lips, teasing her. It was rare for him to joke, Ruan Yu played along, “Then tonight, A-Yu will tell you what I want to eat tomorrow morning. Remember to bring it for A-Yu, if you get it wrong, I won’t eat it.”

“Okay.”

Ruan Yu picked up her chopsticks, picked up a shrimp and put it in her mouth, she closed her eyes in satisfaction, “Delicious.”

“If it’s delicious, eat more.” Gu Yan Zhi reached out and rubbed her head, like a cat who had just eaten some dried fish.

Ruan Yu used her chopsticks to pick up one shrimp after another, but it wasn’t enough. She picked up the spoon in the soup, scooped up a spoonful, there were three or four shrimp in it, and she stuffed them into her mouth.

This way of eating was really too satisfying.

After dinner, the other dishes were left half-eaten, but the shrimp was completely gone.

She covered her bulging stomach and burped, “I’m full.”

Gu Yan Zhi’s eyes were full of doting, he pinched her bulging cheeks, “Little glutton.”

Ruan Yu’s eyes narrowed into crescent moons, she held his arm, leaning into his embrace, “Yan Zhi Ge Ge, see, A-Yu can eat and move, don’t feel guilty, okay? A-Yu also protected you once, you don’t know how happy I am.”

Gu Yan Zhi sighed silently, his bony hand covered her cheek, “Then A-Yu promises Yan Zhi Ge Ge, if you encounter danger, hide behind me, don’t do it like the other night again.”

Ruan Yu nodded obediently, “I promise you.”

She promised with her mouth, but it didn’t mean she promised with her heart. In the face of danger, she would still protect him without hesitation.

Ruan Yu had been in the ward for too long, it was a little stuffy and boring, “Take me out for a walk, let’s digest.”

Gu Yan Zhi also knew that she couldn’t stay in the ward, “Okay.”

He picked up his jacket and put it on Ruan Yu, “It’s a little cold, put on your clothes.”

Ruan Yu was very obedient, she put on her clothes and held Gu Yan Zhi’s arm. She thought Gu Yan Zhi was going to take her out to play, but she was wrong.

Gu Yan Zhi took her to the top floor of the hospital. The elevator stopped, and Gu Yan Zhi took her out of the elevator. She was stunned by the view.

It turned out that there was an aerial garden in this hospital. The evening sun fell on the flowers, casting a dreamy glow. Ruan Yu’s hair was scattered over her shoulders, her skin was white and tender, and the hospital gown under her jacket added a touch of sickly beauty.

Without the smell of disinfectant from the ward, Ruan Yu took a deep breath of fresh air.

“Gu Yan Zhi, see, I’m fine now, when can I be discharged?” Ruan Yu missed being at the Gu residence. It was so boring staying in the ward, and there were a bunch of bodyguards guarding her like a prisoner.

Ruan Yu stood in front of the flowers and plants, spreading her arms, feeling the beauty of the sunset.

Gu Yan Zhi walked over, put his arms around her from behind, “Stay a few more days, be good, don’t worry me, okay?”

His warm breath fell on Ruan Yu’s shoulder, her whole body tingled as she leaned against Gu Yan Zhi, “Okay then.”

Three days passed, Ruan Yu’s wound healed, the bandages were removed, and she was discharged. But the wound still needed careful care, it couldn’t get wet.

Ruan Yu obediently listened to the doctor’s instructions, so as not to worry Gu Yan Zhi.

That day, Gu Yan Zhi went to work, and she went with him. She went to the coffee shop, the door was open, and she knew that Mu Luoxi was inside.

She walked in, the place was very clean, the empty bookshelves were filled with books, and there were many green plants added to the shop.

“Your Mr. Gu is too generous, a shop in the city center, just like that.” Mu Luoxi walked out from inside, holding a feather duster.

There was also a rest room in the shop.

“Don’t worry, a girl as excellent as our Luoxi, her future boyfriend will definitely be no worse than Gu Yan Zhi.” Ruan Yu looked around and said.

Mu Luoxi pouted, “Forget it.”

She and Ruan Yu were from different backgrounds, but fate had made them good friends. After being with Ruan Yu and getting to know Gu Yan Zhi, her standards for a partner had become higher.

Before, she thought that her future partner would have a car, a house, and some savings. Even if there was no love, she would marry him. Now she didn’t think so anymore.
