Chapter 38 (1/2)

Yuan Gun Gun snuck her small friends into Hao Yan Che's bedroom. There was a big unused drawer beneath the book shelf furthest from Hao Yan Che's bed. The drawer could fit five people. There were decorative holes outside the drawer. It was a perfect hiding spot for her small friends. She lined the bottom of the drawer with blankets for them to sleep on, and she put food and water inside the drawer for them to eat.

'Stay here,' Yuan Gun Gun said. 'At night, big sister will bring you back to my room. Don't let anyone see or hear you.'

Yuan Gun Gun ran back to the pink bedroom before Chen Jia Wen knocked on the door.

'Gun Gun, young master is back,' Chen Jia Wen said. 'He wants to see you.'

'Young master is back early,' Yuan Gun Gun said.

Yuan Gun Gun wiped sweat off her forehead.

'Let's go,' Chen Jia Wen said.

'Wait,' Yuan Gun Gun said.

Yuan Gun Gun picked up the three tier meal box, and she followed Chen Jia Wen to the study room.

'Young master, you're back,' Yuan Gun Gun said and put the box on the desk.

'What is this?' Hao Yan Che asked.

'My mummy made it to bribe you... I mean mummy wanted me to give this to young master as a gift,' Yuan Gun Gun said.

Yuan Gun Gun opened the box, and she took out a hot bun. Hao Yan Che slapped her right hand away from the box, and he put the hot bun back in the box.

'Ow... it hurts,' Yuan Gun Gun said. She rubbed her right sore hand. 'Why did you hit my hand?'

'Go wash your hands,' Hao Yan Che said.

'Then why aren't you washing your hands?' Yuan Gun Gun asked.

Hao Yan Che scoffed, and Yuan Gun Gun followed him to the bathroom.

Yuan Gun Gun washed her hands, and ran back to the desk. She picked up the hot bun again, but Hao Yan Che was glaring at her. She smiled at him and heled the bun in front of his lips.

'Young master, eat this,' Yuan Gun Gun said.

Hao Yan Che bit the bun, chewed and swallowed.

'Your mum is a better cook than you,' Hao Yan Che said.
