mu yuchen turned around after mu lingshi left, he sat down beside xi xiaye and then looked at her. "are you tired?" he asked while grabbing her hand as she did not seem well.

xi xiaye shook her head as she grabbed his coat and put it aside. "i'm fine. i'm glad that ah shi is getting better. i'm just worried about her unstable emotional state. it'll be bad if she starts feeling unwell again."

"it seems like she's gotten over it. i feel more at ease now."

"i have to give you the same amount of care i showed her too. i heard from the bodyguards that you didn't eat lunch. what's the matter?"

"it's alright. i just didn't have the appetite. you didn't have lunch either, did you?"

she glared at him. "li si said you were so busy that you didn't even have time for lunch. are you done with work now?"

"i didn't have the appetite either. i've done what i could. the next step is to just wait." he pinched the space between his eyebrows as he spoke.

xi xiaye nodded as she glanced at the sun for a moment before standing up. "let's go eat something now. it's my treat." she smiled while squinting at him.

"did something good happen? why are you so generous today?" he glanced at her and chuckled, merely letting her drag him to wherever they were heading.

"don't speak as if i'm a stingy person. do i seem like that sort of person?" xi xiaye glared at him.

"of course not. i'm the stingy person here. you've always been generous." he went along with her.

she seemed satisfied with his answer. "you've been getting better with your words lately. i'll bring you to enjoy some top-class service today."

mu yuchen raised his eyebrows and smiled. "top-class service, huh?"

"are you serving me personally?" he wrapped his arm around her shoulder and whispered into her ear, "that'd truly be top-class service for me."

"i can't even muster any strength right now, and you're trying to exhaust me further...ah!" xi xiaye rolled her eyes at him, and suddenly the man embraced her in his arms, shocking her with his sudden behaviour.

"put me down. there are so many people looking at us!"

there was quite a crowd in the hospital right now, and their unusual antics did not go unobserved.

"so what? i'm just a man holding his wife. is it that odd?" mu yuchen was unfazed. "why do you feel lighter compared to when you were in los angeles?"

"my weight is still three digits no matter how light i am now. put me down. i don't want you to put on a performance here."

"dear, are you saying that i've not been treating you well enough?"

"of course, i don't mean that."

"then, don't use the word 'performance'. i don't like that."

"you..."

their car was parked in the emergency parking lot.

xi xiaye sat in the front passenger seat with mu yuchen driving this time.

"let's go to the pinnacle island restaurant. there are several new dishes there that look pretty good. let me take a nap right now. wake me up when we arrive."

xi xiaye leaned back and just let him put the seatbelt on for her.

"let's not eat out since you're tired. we'll eat at home instead. i'll cook something for you." master mu was actually not fond of eating out. no matter how delicious the food could be, he still preferred to eat his own cooking.
