I excitedly clicked "Add to Contacts."
In the verification message, I couldn't wait to send a message:
"Hello! I'm your Sister Lin. Please accept my friend request!"
I even added a cute emoticon smiley face.
After sending the message, I nervously licked my lips.
How would my sister respond?
A few minutes later, the friend request was accepted.
I was overjoyed as I clicked into my sister's Moments.
It was empty, with only a few work-related posts from months ago.
My heart sank a little, feeling somewhat at a loss.
My sister's WeChat Moments were so clean; she must be an introverted girl.
Should I be more proactive?
"Sister, are you working?"
"Are you tired?"
"I want a kiss; come give me a kiss!"
"Make sure to take care of yourself and don't overwork."
I sent several voice messages in quick succession.
But my sister only replied with:
"?"
I stared at the question mark on the screen, momentarily stunned.
Oh dear, the silly girl must still be busy with work.
Maybe she's in a meeting and can't reply?
What a dedicated employee!
I shook my head in understanding and sent a few voice messages:
"You can keep busy for now. What do you want for dinner tonight?"
"I'll cook for you."
"By the way, health is the foundation of revolution."
"Work is important, but your health is even more important!"
"Your boss too, why work so hard?"
"With such exploitation of employees, aren't they afraid of being reported?"
"Hahaha~"
After sending those messages, I couldn't help but laugh to myself.
My sister finally replied with a simple, "Got it."
But she still seemed so distant.
She must still be busy, I thought.
Ever since I got Mei Bao's WeChat, I've been pestering her to chat every day.
I even deliberately sent messages during meetings:
"Mei Bao, are you busy with work today?"
"Should I leave work early to cook for you?"
Mei Bao always replied simply, just saying, "Got it."
She was probably still working late and couldn't say much.
What a diligent employee she is!
I nodded to myself and quietly decided to leave work early.
Carrying several shopping bags filled with ingredients, I hurried home with a heart full of joy.
I bought a lot today, which means I can cook something delicious.
Mei Bao will surely be touched to see how much effort I put in, right?
Hehe~
I thought happily as I pushed open the door.
Standing by the dining table was a man.
Broad-shouldered and narrow-waisted, he had a face that could rival any Korean drama male star.
He wasn't wearing any clothes, and the fragrant scent of figs wafted into my nostrils.
He was only wrapped in a white bath towel.
Sensual and enticing.
I froze for a moment, and the shopping bag slipped from my hands, hitting the floor with a dull thud.
The man slowly turned around, locking eyes with me.
He was incredibly handsome.
His deep-set eyes were like black holes, drawing me in completely.
Even though I was caught staring, he showed no sign of discomfort.
Instead, he walked towards me.
He crouched down, his long fingers picking up the ingredients that had fallen on the floor.
Then, he took everything out of the shopping bag.
One by one, he arranged them on the dining table.
I watched his movements in a daze.
It wasn't until he stood up straight that I finally snapped back to reality.
"Who are you?"
The man glanced at me, his expression unreadable.
"You must be here to cook."
"Come here."
His tone left no room for refusal.
Who on earth is this?
I followed him into the kitchen in a daze.
He naturally took the spatula from my hand and directed me.
"Go get a pair of chopsticks."
I paused, a mix of emotions swirling inside me.
Fine.
It seems he is Mei Bao's boyfriend.
I stood in the middle of the kitchen, absentmindedly stirring the contents of the pot.
The aroma wafted around, but I had no appetite at all.
It wasn't until I saw him change into fresh clothes and sit elegantly at the dining table that it hit me—he is my best friend's husband.
He is also the brother of Mei Bao, whom I had taken care of for quite some time.
Fu Xi.
