Chapter 67: Reminded Of Me

When she entered the living room, Tang Qiu saw that Ke Liuyi had already prepared dinner. She couldn’t help but praise, “You’re both beautiful and a talented cook, Doctor Ke. Your future husband is a lucky man.”

Ke Liuyi glanced at Jiang Shaocheng and smiled. “Qiu sure has a sense of humor. I don’t even have a boyfriend yet.”

“You’re so outstanding; it won’t be hard for you to find one. I believe you’ll meet a match worthy of you in the future,” Tang Qiu said with sincerity.

I’ve already met him, Ke Liuyi thought.?You just took him from me.

“Let’s eat, Qiu,” Jiang Shaocheng said.

Tang Qiu nodded and sat down to eat. Since Ke Liuyi had been thoughtful enough to set the table, she didn’t need to do anything.

After the meal, she hurried to help, but Jiang Shaocheng stopped her. “Let Doctor Ke do it. You just focus on taking care of your studies. Let’s go upstairs.”

“Alright.” Tang Qiu thanked the other woman for her trouble before pushing her husband upstairs.

Indignation swelled in Ke Liuyi’s chest, overflowing into anger. She did her duties in the kitchen and cooked for Jiang Shaocheng because she wanted to prove she was worthy of being his wife–not for him to treat her as a servant. In that split second of rage, her arm nearly swept out and sent the cutlery crashing to the floor. The only thing that held her back was that Jiang Shaocheng had allowed her to stay in his house, by his side–and that meant he must care about her somehow.

When she finished cleaning up the kitchen, she turned around and saw He Lei inviting a dozen people into the house. They were like a small army, loaded with all kinds of jewelry, clothes, shoes, and even skincare products…

They had to be gifts for a woman. Could it be a surprise Jiang Shaocheng had prepared for her? The corners of Ke Liuyi’s mouth curled up as she approached the group. “Set the items down,” she instructed. “I want to inspect them.”

They didn’t move, instead looking to He Lei. Only when he nodded did they obey and leave.

Ke Liuyi examined the abundance of items. Which women wouldn’t enjoy being showered with jewelry and new clothes, let alone from the man of their heart? Excitement raced in her. “Who picked these out?” she asked.

......

“The young master, of course.” It had taken Jiang Shaocheng the better part of an afternoon, all while putting his work on hold. At that point, He Lei had known it would be useless to try and talk any amount of sense into him.
