Chapter 79 - A Gift That Would Shock The World (2/2)

”You owe me nothing and since you always say that we are friends, just accept this car,” He paused for a moment before continuing, ”Your university vacation will be over soon and you're going to gym now. I can't be there to drop you or pick you up. Steward Gu is also busy…”

”But…”

”Don't even think about that,” He interrupted her, ''Cabs are not safe these days. Don't you follow the news?”

”But…”

”No more buts…” Thinking about it for a bit, he added, ”Accept the car for now and in the future, you can give me a return gift. I'll accept it no matter how expensive it is. How about it?”

She paused for a moment before nodding. This seems feasible, ”Quick. Eat your noodles. It won't taste well after getting cold,'' With that, she resumed eating.

At this time, he had said it casually to coax her into accepting his gift. But he would have never expected that in the future, she would gift him something so expensive that would shock the whole world.

The corner of his lips tugged up as he picked up his bowl, ”By the way, how do you know Shi Luo?''

”Cough…She treated my face.”

”Oh…” He might not admit that but he was a tad bit disappointed that she didn't ask him about how he knew her. Weren't wives supposed to keep track of their husbands' relations with other women?

But then again, did this she even think of him as a husband?

He pursed his lips and shook off such thoughts from his mind.

…

The next few days passed in a flash. Having a car made it much easier for her to go back and forth to the gym without worries. She was working out regularly and started taking her medications regularly which led her to be more active. She didn't feel as lazy as before.

And maybe it was her illusion, or it was because of the medicine, but she really felt herself losing weight. Though it was not visible, her body was just not as heavy as before. She did not check her weight since she had decided to do so after 4 weeks of joining the gym and there were still three weeks left.

True to his words, Jun Zixuan started getting busier with his work and she rarely saw him at the penthouse.

They had breakfast together every day. As for the rest of her meals, he would prepare them for her and keep them in the fridge before leaving for work. She told him that she could order something for herself but her word always fell into deaf ears. No matter how busy he was, he took some time out to cook for her.

And she could swear that she was getting addicted to his food. He did not prepare some sort of extravagant or high-calorie dishes for her given that she was going to the gym. It had to be a simple omelette or salad or steamed dumplings, anything he made tasted heavenly. Let alone food, she was even addicted to the morning coffee that made for her.
