Li Juexi stood up from his chair dissatisfied and spoke directly to Manwen, with a childish tone like that of a child who was wronged and asked his parents to make the decision...
Manwen was stunned for a moment, then nodded without thinking, "Okay, I'll do it right away."
Li Juexi didn't expect that Manwen would agree so simply and decisively. He paused in his dressing movements and stared at her with his black eyes, completely ignoring the servant beside him who had a drooped face of sadness.
Eyes facing each other.
Manwen touched his arm uncomfortably.
"Man……"
Just as Li Juexi was about to speak, the voice of the housekeeper came in, "You guys, hurry in and pick up the eldest young master and eldest young mistress, and notify the kitchen to start cooking."
As soon as he finished speaking, several servants filed in, draped white blankets over the two of them, and hurriedly embraced them out of the wine cellar, interrupting their gaze.
Outside the wooden door, a ray of gentle light shone down the steep steps. It was already dusk.
There were already many people standing outside the door, including the housekeeper, a group of servants and several assistants holding documents.
"Young Master, there are several documents that need your signature."
"Young Master, I will help you postpone all your schedule today. I wonder when you want to arrange it?"
"As for the capital increase proposal of Asia E.S Group that you proposed, it was rejected. The third young master said that he would not accept any funding proposal from the consortium."
…
Manwen stood there, just looking at the densely packed documents and files being pressed towards him. The assistants were chattering in a hurry, as if the sky was falling.
Suddenly, a white shadow flashed before his eyes.
Li Juexi threw off the blanket on his body, took the document from his assistant to sign, and walked up, "Go back to the consortium immediately."
"Yes, young master."
A group of assistants hurriedly followed him, exchanging documents for him to sign. The busy pace was frighteningly fast.
"Young Master, you haven't bathed or eaten yet..."
The life steward shouted after him excitedly, but Li Juexi walked further and further away and had no time to look back.
"..."
Manwen's eyes kept chasing Li Juexi's figure, watching him turn and walk away in a hurry, watching him cover his mouth with his hand to cover up a slight yawn.
Then, she saw how exhausted he was.
My heart aches slightly.
After leaving this wine cellar, they have to put on their respective masks again...
"Let's go, young mistress." Assistant Amy stood beside her and waved her hand in front of her eyes.
"What time is it outside?"
"More than 20 degrees, let me check the weather." Amy quickly took out her mobile phone.
"..."
Manwen couldn't help but pick up the blanket on her body. Was it more than 20 degrees? Why did she feel colder than in the wine cellar?
A long time later, when Manwen thought about it again, she didn't know whether the cold embrace in the wine cellar or the cold afterglow that night...
*************************
After bathing, Manwen sat in the restaurant to eat.
In the luxuriously decorated restaurant, two rows of servants and one row of chefs were waiting.
But she was the only one sitting at the dining table, looking at a table full of steaming dishes.
"Madam, this is a new product designed by me. It is very good for pregnant women." A chef came out and introduced to her respectfully.
Manwen glanced at the soup lightly, then nodded.
The maid immediately served her a small bowl. Manwen took a bite and said coldly, "It's too bland. A good chef should at least pay attention to the taste preferences of the diners." "Fire him quickly! And the one from last night!"
