Xia Zhiyi stirred the pumpkin porridge slowly with the stainless steel spoon that Assistant Li had brought, without looking up, her tone somewhat nonchalant. "Why did you send them away?"
Fu Chi: " A-Yi, don't be angry."
Xia Zhiyi silent, but did not refute the statement.
Fu Chi sighed softly and explained, "I don't plan to resume work today. I just sent someone to update me on the progress. I won't interfere unless something major happens."
Upon hearing Xia Zhiyi finally looked up at him and asked, "Really?"
He was a little angry, but not angry that Assistant Li seemed to have been instructed by someone to keep it from him. He was angry that Fu Chi didn't take his health seriously. He had clearly said he wanted to rest properly, but he had to start working as soon as he woke up.
Xia Zhiyi could understand that Fu Chi couldn't let go of things at the company, but the company wouldn't collapse just because Fu Chi was gone.
If that's the case, then are all the employees of such a large corporation like Hangu Group useless?
And Tianhuan? With so many people in the company and all the signed artists, is it all relying on Fu Chi alone to survive?
Obviously not.
So it's normal for Xia Zhiyi get angry if Fu Chi insists on working at a time like this, right?
Xia Zhiyi: "Then why did you ask Assistant Li to keep this from me?"
Fu Chi helplessly, "I didn't mean to hide it from you; I just wanted him to avoid you."
Xia Zhiyi: "Isn't that hiding it from me?"
Fu Chi: "No, if you heard it, I wouldn't keep it from you."
See, I'm telling you now, aren't I?
Xia Zhiyi pouted. "If that's the case, why are you avoiding me?"
Fu Chi was silent for a moment, then said, "It was my mistake. I didn't want you to continue worrying, so I made these arrangements, but now that I think about it, it seems like it will make you worry even more."
He admitted his mistake readily and decisively. Xia Zhiyi listened, looked away, and said softly, "I don't necessarily require you to tell me everything. Even as a married couple, we need our own private space. I know that."
"Besides, we're not husband and wife, we're just lovers."
As he said this, his eyelashes fluttered, and his gaze seemed somewhat unfocused, as if he were thinking of something.
Fu Chi fell silent upon hearing this.
Xia Zhiyi waited for a while, but he didn't speak. Puzzled, she turned to look at him and asked, "Why aren't you saying anything?"
As a result, Fu Chi's face showed an unusually troubled expression.
Xia Zhiyi: "... What are you having trouble with?"
Did he just say something that would put Fu Chi in a difficult position?
Xia Zhiyi recalled her words and didn't think she had done anything that would put Fu Chi in a difficult position.
It can't be that he's in such a difficult Fu Chi if he's not allowed to handle work matters so quickly.
If... if you're really worried...
Xia Zhiyi bit her lip, her gaze falling on the cast on Fu Chi's hand. In the end, she still felt that she couldn't let Fu Chi act willfully at this time.
Even workaholics have their limits.
Unexpectedly, Fu Chi spoke up at this moment, "But you're not old enough yet."
Xia Zhiyi was taken aback.
age?
What age?
Fu Chi rubbed his temples with his good hand, looking troubled. "The legal age for men in Xia Country is twenty-two. You're only eighteen, so you still have four years to go."
"However, we can get engaged first, what do you think?"
Xia Zhiyi: "..."
At twenty-two years old, Xia Zhiyi quickly realized that Fu Chi was referring to the legal marriage age.
Realizing what Fu Chi meant, Xia Zhiyi's fingers trembled slightly, and she inexplicably felt her face flush. Her voice unconsciously lowered. "Why did you suddenly bring this up?"
Fu Chi looked at him Jingjing, his eyes gentle. "Because I want to marry A-Yi."
Fu Chi found the thought of changing the relationship between the two, binding them even closer together, and making Xia Zhiyi completely his own, quite delightful.
Everyone will know that the man standing next to Xia Zhiyi is him. When people think of Xia Zhiyi, they will only think of him, a feeling as if they have been legally labeled as someone else...
Unfortunately, Xia Zhiyi is not old enough.
If Xia Zhiyi that their relationship wasn't close enough, Fu Chi really wanted to take his boyfriend straight to the marriage registry, but... he wasn't old enough.
Therefore, the best solution is to get engaged. Getting engaged is like stamping half of your mark on the other person.
Hearing Fu Chi's words, Xia Zhiyi although they had said they were dating with marriage in mind, he was now having second thoughts.
Xia Zhiyi couldn't quite explain what she was thinking at that moment, but it wasn't that she disliked Fu Chi.
On the contrary, he knew he liked Fu Chi.
Or rather, if Xia Zhiyi had lustful thoughts when they first started dating, then now she has truly fallen in love with Xia Zhiyi Fu Chi.
He's gentle with her, special only to her, and a compatible partner both in and out of bed—who wouldn't like that?
He's also so good-looking.
Xia Zhiyi.
Yes, he likes Fu Chi.
Therefore, she felt angry because of Fu Chi's accident, was hurt by Fu Chi's cold eyes, and worried about whether he would really lose his memory and forget her.
Although Xia Zhiyi had thought defiantly that if Fu Chi really forgot him, he would break up with him, Xia Zhiyi n't sure if she would really be indifferent and break up with him without any mercy if such a thing actually happened.
He wasn't sure.
Is that why he's anxious?
" A-Yi?"
Xia Zhiyi snapped out of her reverie and met the man's slightly worried gaze. She realized that her momentary lapse in concentration had probably made him anxious. "Did you just say something?"
Fu Chi shook his head slightly, glanced at him, then at the food laid out on the table. "Never mind, we can talk about these later. Let's eat first."
"Otherwise it'll get cold."
Xia Zhiyi looked down and nodded, "Okay."
Afterwards, the two quietly finished their breakfast. Although Assistant Li brought a lot, and the table was filled with a dazzling array of dishes, Xia Zhiyi a big appetite, so she didn't waste any.
Fu Chi is the standard of a normal adult man, so Xia Zhiyi is the one who takes care of most of the problems.
After they finished eating, Xia Zhiyi got up and cleaned the table. Fu Chi offered to help, but Xia Zhiyi told him to sit down, "You can just sit here. It's not much trouble to clean up this little bit of food."
Fu Chi looked at it and felt somewhat helpless.
After finishing tidying up, Assistant Li still hadn't returned, but she sent Fu Chi a text message saying that she had been in a car accident on the road and was helping out.
Xia Zhiyi found out and asked, "Another car accident? Is he alright?"
Fu Chi then asked a question.
Assistant Li replied quickly and even sent a ten-second video.
After reading it, Xia Zhiyi was speechless. "Trying to stage an accident at the hospital entrance, are they thinking that if they actually get hit, there won't be enough time for emergency treatment?"
