Chapter 717 Everything is fine (1/2)

Yue Ling finished freshening up and headed downstairs. She changed into a black turtleneck top that she tucked inside a pair of black wide-leg slacks. Securing at her waist was a black belt with a finishing gold buckle.

As she walks to the kitchen to meet Lu Tian, she held her work bag in one hand and a tan wool coat on the other hand.

However, before entering the kitchen, she tops in front of the mirror hung at the front entryway. She looks at her reflection and does a quick double-check to see if anything was wrong with her light makeup and hair.

”Good, everything is fine.”

She inhales a deep breath and calms herself as she turns away from the mirror.

Although she is the type of person who never cares about how others judge her, she still didn't want Lu Tian to see any more of her embarrassing side.

Walking into the kitchen, she stops at the open wall space that separated the kitchen and living room. She kept her usual calm expression like she had never been nervous or woken up in a hot mess.

”I won't be having breakfast.”

Her tone was like a master informing her servant and it made the man in the kitchen stop what he was doing.

Lu Tian was holding a cup of warm ginger tea in his hand and taking it to the table. Just as he reached the table, he pauses in his steps at her words.

He looks at her for a quick second, then glances at her hair. It was no longer the bird's nest he had saw when she first woke up. Instead, she had nicely straightened it and let it flow down her shoulders to her back.

Thinking about her appearance again, the corners of his mouth twitch every so lightly, but he quickly brushes it aside and forces himself not to tease her.

He looks away from her and continues with what he was doing.

”I made congee with chicken. Eat a little then drink some ginger tea.”

Like he had not heard her words at all, he pulls a chair out and gestures for her to sit down.

”It'll help with your hangover.”

Yue Ling was dumbfounded by his calm behavior. She could only blink her eyes at him as she knew he wanted to smile but was trying very hard not to.

She glances down at the food and could smell the delicious aroma from the congee. At that moment, her stomach faintly growls but she ignores it and puts on a stern expression.

”It's fine. I need to get to work. I have to meet a textile company today.”

She spoke in a matter of fact tone and despite hearing her stomach growl again, she turns away from the kitchen and walks towards the front door.

Lu Tian was at a loss for words by her. He watches her disappear from his view leaving only the living room for him to see.

He heaves a long sigh and walks away from the table. He doesn't follow her right away but grabs a bag from the kitchen counter then follows after her. He had a hunch that she might bail on breakfast, so he packed some congee and ginger tea in advance.

Yue Ling stepped out of the house only to see that her white BMW x5m was not parked in front of the house. She sighs inside and heads in the direction of the garage to see if it was there.

However, like outside, the car was also not parked in the garage.

This allowed her to conclude that she didn't get home by herself.

She walks over to one part of the garage that displayed her motorcycle helmets and set her work bag on the counter. As she puts on her coat, she looks at the glass safe that house her keys.

”Which car should I drive today?”

Compare to all her vehicles here, the x5m was the least attention-grabbing one, so she prefers to drive it to work. However, now that it isn't here, she needs to carefully choose the right car to drive.

”Yue Ling.”
