Dou Xiangling looked at her awkwardly and asked, “Is this for the patient or is it because you want to eat them?”
Zi Yi answered as if it were a matter of fact, “Ah Jing would definitely want to eat what I want to eat.”
Dou Xiangling revealed an amused expression. “Why three cups of milk tea?”
“One cup for Auntie Lu, one for you, and one for me.”
“So, what about Mr. Lu?”
“He… shall watch us drink.”
“Pft-!”
The both of them went their separate ways soon after. Zi Yi still had a few lessons from different schools in the afternoon, so she took out her phone and connected to her car parked at the School of Liberal Arts. She then remotely activated the automatic flight mode.
While she was waiting for the car, Zi Yi sensed someone peeking at her. She turned her head to look and just so happened to see a familiar figure running away swiftly.
The person peeking at her was Zi Xuan.
Zi Yi looked at the figure which ran away and called out Shadow. “What is she doing?”
Shadow replied, “Li Peirong told her to lure you somewhere.”
“Where?”
Shadow told her an exact location.
It was a very remote forest located somewhere in M.Uni. It was near the boundary of the university and behind the wall was a large park.
Zi Yi sneered. She knew that Li Peirong was being controlled and she also knew what Li Peirong wanted to do to her. It just so happened that she had time to take care of that woman right now.
“Get Little Loli to send a robot disguised with my appearance to play with them. When the time comes, take care of the people behind Li Peirong and her daughter.”
“I understand.”
Shadow turned on stealth mode after he answered, while Zi Yi continued to stand there as she waited for her car to arrive.
After her lessons in the afternoon ended, Zi Yi received Dou Xiangling’s phone call.
Dou Xiangling said to her, “Yiyi, I’m waiting for you outside the school gates, you can make your way over directly.”
Zi Yi responded with an ‘ok’ and she drove her car to the gate.
Unexpectedly, Dou Xiangling was not waiting for her in her car. Instead, she was standing under a streetlamp waiting for her with several bags that had the cake shop logo printed on them.
The weather during early winter was very cold and there was a male coat draped over her shoulders. She obviously found it a little embarra.s.sing and so, she faced sideways.
Zi Yi drove the car over and furrowed her eyebrows as she asked, “Why didn’t you drive?”
After she asked that, she s.h.i.+fted her attention to the coat on her shoulders with a curious expression.
Dou Xiangling pursed her lips, pulled open the pa.s.senger seat door, and after she placed the food into the car, she said, “It’s Teacher Zhang’s coat. His car broke down and it was sent to the garage for repair. I saw that he still found it inconvenient to walk properly and so, I lent him my car to drive back.”
Zhang Hanyu originally wanted to wait for Zi Yi together with Dou Xiangling, but she did not allow him to do so.
In the end, Zhang Hanyu put his outer coat on her shoulders.
Dou Xiangling was unwilling at first, but Zhang Hanyu merely put the coat on her shoulders and left immediately after. She was not able to chase after him at all.
Zi Yi nodded her head. “The weather has turned cold and since you lent him your car, it’s also right for him to lend you his coat.”
Dou Xiangling opened her mouth and wanted to say that if she were to bring the coat home and other people were to see it, it would be very awkward if they asked her about it.
She honestly had no feelings for Zhang Hanyu. Moreover, he had never mentioned or brought up anything about being chummy with her. Both of them were also colleagues and they would often encounter each other along the way. Not to mention, Zhang Hanyu had injured his leg because of her and it made it more difficult for her to say anything.
Zi Yi seemed to have seen through her thoughts and said, “You can leave the coat in my car. I’ll send it over to you tomorrow.”
Dou Xiangling tilted her head and looked at her.
Zi Yi revealed a smile. “I’ll get my housekeeper to send you back in an ordinary car later.”
Dou Xiangling was a little surprised. “You have ordinary cars at your place?”
Based on her memories, the cars Zi Yi owned were all racing cars.
“Of course. Ah Jing has cars.”
Dou Xiangling was momentarily stunned before she lowered her head and chuckled.
“I thought that Mr. Lu was really penniless after he was chased out by his family.”
Zi Yi also laughed in response. “To be honest, I wish that he was really penniless. However, even if he did not take a single cent from the Lu Family, he still has Auntie Lu’s dowry.”
“That’s right. I heard that Auntie Lu’s dowry is Song Jewelry. It’s one of the largest jewelry companies in the capital.”
“That’s right.”
Dou Xiangling slightly sighed. “Sure enough, it’s better for the female side to be wealthy. You and Mr. Lu’s situation is pretty good right now too. He doesn’t have to slog so hard and he can spend more time with you.”
“You’re right.” Zi Yi smiled as her eyes curved into crescent moons. “Don’t worry, I will earn tons of money too. When you get married in the future, I’ll use the money to crush whoever dares to bully you!”
Dou Xiangling: “Pft!”
Dou Xiangling discovered that the closer she was with Zi Yi, the more she could feel an indescribable warmth.
She tilted her head and looked at Zi Yi. “It seems like I should work harder on my art gallery. I also have to earn more money to be your solid support!”
“Alright!”
They soon drove back to Zi Yi’s courtyard.
Lu Jingye and Mrs. Lu were already standing in the courtyard waiting for Zi Yi to return.
As soon as they saw the car come to a stop, the two of them walked over.
Lu Jingye even had outerwear in his hand.
Dou Xiangling was surprised to see Lu Jingye standing outside. “Mr. Lu was severely injured last night but looking at his condition now, it seems as if nothing had happened!”
“I was the one who treated him and so of course he would have already healed.”
Dou Xiangling knew that Zi Yi was very skilled in medicine, but she did not expect it was to such an extent.
“This is too amazing. Then… have the injuries on his back healed yet?”
“They have only scabbed over. He still has to recuperate for a few more days.”
They alighted from the car as they chatted. Dou Xiangling first greeted Mrs. Lu. “h.e.l.lo, Auntie Lu.”
“h.e.l.lo, Xiangling.”
Zi Yi walked over to Lu Jingye and he put the coat over her shoulders. At the same time, he said disapprovingly, “Why didn’t you bring a coat along with you when you left today?”
“I’m not cold,” Zi Yi said and she then added, “My cousin is wearing thin clothes, let her wear the coat instead.”
“Alright.”
Dou Xiangling who originally wanted to reject her goodwill did not have a chance to speak at all when Zi Yi had put her coat over her shoulders.
After Zi Yi was done with that, she returned to the car and grabbed the cake and milk tea. Following that, she handed Mrs. Lu and Dou Xiangling a cup of milk tea.
Lu Jingye carried the cake for her.
He then looked at Zi Yi who was drinking the milk tea nonstop and asked, “It’s time for dinner soon, will you still be able to eat your dinner after drinking?”
“I can.”
While Zi Yi said that, she even took a big sip. Mrs. Lu and Dou Xiangling felt like laughing at the sight of her actions.
Mrs. Lu also took a sip of the milk tea and nodded. “This milk tea tastes good. It’s not too sweet, but it’s not as authentic as the milk tea I had in a shop in S City.”
Dou Xiangling also followed suit and took a sip. “Yiyi, if you really like drinking milk tea, we can make it ourselves.”
Zi Yi subconsciously replied, “It’s too troublesome.”
Lu Jingye glanced at her and thought of how she had found excuses just because she did not want to cook. The corner of his lips unconsciously curled up. It just so happens that he had a lot of free time recently and so he could give it a try.
Zi Yi felt Lu Jingye’s gaze on her and held the straw to his mouth. “Ah Jing, have a sip.”
“Jingye doe…”
Mrs. Lu originally wanted to say that Lu Jingye did not like to drink milk tea. However, she did not manage to get her words out before Lu Jingye took a sip.
Mrs. Lu: “…”
Sure enough, sons are educated by daughters-in-law!
