Chapter 153

In the following days, Bai Weijin learned that this person called Yan Qing was sent by Gu Yeze to keep an eye on her.

Bai Weijin did want to flee away, yet she dropped the idea once the painful experience of falling into a coma sprang to mind.

‘I can only wait until my wound heals.’

Days later, she was almost recovered. Yan Qing suddenly opened his mouth.

“Now that you’re in good trim, I needn’t be here again, and Gu Yeze will be back soon.”

On hearing what she said, Bai Weijin froze.

If Gu Yeze came back, she could definitely not run off. The bodyguards were hard to deal with, let alone Gu Yeze.

Even if growing a pair of wings, she could hardly fly away.

After these days, Yan Qing had certain understanding of her disposition. He knew at a glance that her plan failed.

Despite his unwillingness to help Bai Weijin make off, Yan Qing was clear that keeping her at home was no solution to the problem. He thought for a moment before making the suggestion, “If you really want to go out, how about trying to make up with Gu Yeze?”

‘Making up with him? Are you crazy?’

Bai Weijin fixed Yan Qing with an astonished look, asking, “Are you sure the unfeeling man will let me go? After my try?”

Yan Qing pushed his glasses up and wore an encouraging smile.

“He won’t listen to anyone else, but if you try, the result can be different.”

“What do you think? Have a try?”

‘If I try, the result can be… different?’

‘Does it mean I have a special place in his heart?’

For a time, mixed feelings came over Bai Weijin. ‘Have I misunderstood him?’

She thought for a while but figured nothing out. Bai Weijin shook her head, as if to toss her troubles out.

‘Forget it. Now what I need to do is to escape from here and look into what Tan Xin did so as to hold justice for Dad and Yeyu.’

Bai Weijin’s brow cleared, and a mild smile played across her lips. She said to Yan Qing, “Thanks for your advice. I owe you one.”

Her smile dazzled Yan Qing. ‘What a beauty!’

Yet he soon hid his admiration for Bai Weijin, giving a nod and leaving.

As Gu Yeze’s private doctor, he had a quite good sense of propriety.

Having seen Yan Qing off, Bai Weijin’s mood lifted. She ran to the kitchen for a stroll.

‘I do need to make up with Gu Yeze. How about staring from making him a big dinner?’

The moment she opened the refrigerator, Bai Weijin breathed a sigh of relief. ‘Luckily, Yan Qing is domestic.’

Bai Weijin never cooked at home before, so there had been no food here until these days when Yan Qing was asked to take care of Bai Weijin.

He specially went to the food market and bought some vegetables and meat, stowing them in the refrigerator. Otherwise, it would be difficult for Bai Weijin to carry out her plan.

With the ingredients in the refrigerator, Bai Weijin prepared a few dishes. The delicious aroma of the meal soon filled the whole villa.

With a squeak, the door opened. It was Gu Yeze coming back.

Once he stepped into the villa, a strong aroma wafted towards him. Gu Yeze frowned. ‘What’s going on?’

‘Am I entering the wrong house?’

This absurd idea was soon put aside by him, for there’s no one but he who built a villa here.

‘Has someone broke into my home?’

Considering such possibility, Gu Yeze flied into a passion. He tiptoed towards the kitchen.

At present, Bai Weijin was making soup there. The dinner was almost ready.

When the broth stopped bubbling, Bai Weijin carefully took the casserole off the stove and walked outside.

Just at this time, Gu Yeze entered the kitchen. His sudden appearance startled Bai Weijin so that her hands started to tremble.

Before the hot soup spilled all over Bai Weijin’s upper body, Gu Yeze made a big stride forward.

And grabbed the casserole by hand.

It’s boiling hot. Gu Yeze’s countenance immediately changed. Despite that, he gritted his teeth, holding the pot with both hands until Bai Weijin put it on the table.

His fingers become swollen. Gu Yeze knitted his brow.

“What the hell are you doing?”

Gu Yeze cast a glance at the delicious meal and raised his eyebrows, asking with great interest, “Well? You made this for me?”

Bai Weijin intended to move Gu Yeze so that he could let her go, yet the way he reacted annoyed her.

“No, I just get bored at home and cook for myself.”

‘Then why the food is double? And the tableware?’

Gu Yeze didn’t lay bare her lies but sat at the table and began to eat.

As soon as he forked one piece of pork braised in brown sauce into his mouth, Gu Yeze’s eyes lit up with great satisfaction.

It was fat but not greasy and tender enough to melt in his mouth! Fantastic!

Gu Yeze never expected her cooking to be so good. He fixed Bai Weijin with a strange look, as if asking her.

When did you learn to cook?

At the sight of his satisfied look, pride welled up in Bai Weijin’s heart.

It seemed that the years when she lived in Bai House wasn’t without any saving grace, which, at least, pushed her into a good cooker.

“I have no idea that you cook so well,” said Gu Yeze, “I’ve thought you were going to kill me by poisoning my meal.”

Bai Weijin’s face blackened. She stared at Gu Yeze in displeasure and kept breathing in and out.

‘Be cool. I still have a request to make of him!’

Seeing her make no response but bury herself in dining, Gu Yeze felt something strange about Bai Weijin.

‘What’s wrong with her?’
