Chapter 89 - HE LACKS A WIFE (1/2)

Yun Yi returned with a tray. ”Would freshly squeezed juice be alright with you? Apparently, we ran out of coffee and tea.”

”It's perfectly fine.” Lips drawing into an arc, Luo Jingyi reached for the glass.

”These are snacks Yun Jian liked.” Yun Yi set them down on the table. Yun Yi was embarrassed because she couldn't offer something to Luo Jingyi. She made a mental note to tell the Auntie who comes to the apartment thrice a week to re-stock. Her husband was uncomfortable with the idea of having servants, so they only hired someone who would visit thrice in a week to tidy things up.

Meanwhile, Luo Jingyi had really no other opinion. She was a busy woman; hence, she couldn't keep track of the things at home. It's her assistant who did the grocery shopping and stuff for her. She remembered that Yun Yi is the CEO of Tattler Media.

”That— Dr. Luo, why don't you stay for dinner? Because we had urgent matters overseas, so I left right away after meeting you at the hospital. We haven't even treated you for a meal.”

”There's no need. Besides, it's my job to save lives.” Luo Jingyi refused.

”No, please stay. I'll make something very delicious.” Yun Yi insisted then ran to the kitchen.

Yun Jian, who had been quiet on the side, followed her mother's back with a stupified look. 'Is mother really going to cook? What if she blows up the kitchen?'

”Mom.” He called out to remind her, but he suddenly realized what it meant if Luo Jingyi stayed for dinner. It meant he had more time with her.

The expression on his face changed from worry to happiness.

Yun Jian came closer to Luo Jingyi and said, ”Thank you for not telling my mother.”

Glancing to his side, Luo Jingyi warned, ”Don't do it again. That could cause someone to die, did you know that?”

Yun Jian answered by turning his head from side to side. He wanted to say it wasn't his idea. That it was his friend's, but because words couldn't form in his mouth, as his heart was pounding every second. ”I won't do it again.” He promised and hurriedly went to his bedroom.

His fleeing action made a line appear on Luo Jingyi's forehead. His movements and reactions were puzzling her. She found it very strange. Before she could think more of it, a yelp from the kitchen drew her attention.

”What's wrong?” Running to the kitchen, she caught sight of Yun Yi holding a knife with her right hand, and the other was bleeding.

After applying an antibiotic and covering Yun Yi's wounds, they sat in the living room.

”Are you bored, Dr. Luo? Let's turn on the TV so you can watch while waiting. I'll hurry to the kitchen and continue preparing.”

Before Yun Yi could leave, Luo Jingyi tugged her arm. ”Let me cook. You can't wet your wound.”

”Aiyah..no, it was I who offered the meal. You are our guest.” Yun Yi was quick to reject.

”I'm using your kitchen. The ingredients were bought by you, so it still counted as you feeding me, doesn't it?”

Yun Yi sighed heavily. ”Alright, but I'll help you.”
