My Aloof Husband Can't Stop His Devoted Affection-Chapter 390 - 008: Exception_2

Chapter 390: 008: Exception_2
Hearing this, Ye Lingran widened her eyes in surprise, looking at her with doubt, always feeling that Yun Qi wasn’t that kind of person!
Shao Min looked at her with a suffering expression, nodded silently, and leaned in closer again, whispering, "Our President Yun is not as simple as he seems! So, Miss Ye, give me a chance to survive!"
Ye Lingran chuckled helplessly and nodded, "Alright, then I’ll leave it to you, thank you."
"No trouble, no trouble." Watching Ye Lingran leave the kitchen towards the living room, Shao Min waved her hand with a smile. Noticing Chai Jie was slowly inching towards the exit, trying to sneak away, her expression changed. She reached out and grabbed his clothes, glaring at him with a fake smile, "Where are you going?"
"I... I’m going to work to President Yun." Suddenly being grabbed by the clothes, Chai Jie nervously touched his nose.
"ing work isn’t urgent right now, President Yun isn’t going anywhere. Come and help me wash the dishes."
"You just said to Miss Ye that you’d handle it, didn’t mention me."
"Stop talking nonsense. You ate quite a lot at dinner, and now you want to distance yourself when it’s time to wash the dishes. Don’t even dream about it, not even a crack. Come over here." Shao Min rolled her eyes at him and dragged him to the sink, giving him no chance to escape.
Chai Jie was speechless, silently helping her with the hardest and greasiest first wash. Then he heard her start chatting, "I always feel that we should cling to Miss Ye’s thigh tightly in the future. See, President Yun’s attitude changes whenever Miss Ye is around."
"President Yun wasn’t bad to us before."
"I know! But have you ever seen President Yun invite us to eat with him before?"
"No."
"There you go."
Chai Jie was speechless, glanced at her, and didn’t respond further.
After leaving the kitchen, Ye Lingran sat on the single sofa, watching Yun Qi flipping through the documents in his hand with a very serious expression. The thought of Shao Min’s earlier words, ’President Yun is not as simple as he seems,’ lingered in her mind. She thought a lot, feeling that Yun Qi didn’t seem like that kind of scheming person!
Perhaps her gaze was too intense, Yun Qi turned his head to look at her and saw her staring at him. He smiled and asked, "What’s wrong? Is there something on my face? Is that why you’re looking at me like this?"
"Uh... no." Caught in the act, Ye Lingran turned her head awkwardly, glanced inadvertently at the clock on the wall, and quickly got up to pick up her coat, bag, and scarf from the sofa. "Well... it’s about time. You guys have work to discuss later, I’ll head back to my room and won’t disturb you anymore. Also, around eight forty, make sure to take your medicine. Remember to check your temperature again before sleeping. If you feel uncomfortable, you can call me... uh... or Shao Min and Chai Jie, don’t just tough it out."
Yun Qi pursed his lips, thought for a moment, considering she had been taking care of him since early morning and also cooked dinner, which was indeed tiring for her today. He nodded, "Alright, then you should rest early, don’t stay up too late. If I don’t have a fever again or any other issues tonight, tomorrow morning’s schedule won’t change."
"Alright, I understand." Ye Lingran smiled, picked up her things, and headed towards the door. As she passed the kitchen, she greeted Shao Min and Chai Jie, whispering something into Shao Min’s ear, who nodded vigorously and repeatedly said ’alright’.
Returning to her room, Ye Lingran sighed in relief, found a set of clothes in her suitcase, and went to the bathroom to freshen up.

Early next morning, the golden warm sun rose slowly from the east. Ye Lingran got up just past seven, washed up, and entered the kitchen to start preparing breakfast. She tied on the dark blue apron hanging on the wall, using the few remaining ingredients Shao Min specifically helped bring over last night to make breakfast.
Since she didn’t buy much yesterday afternoon, what’s left were only some flour and eggs, some meat, carrots, a leftover cob of corn, and the ham she planned to buy yesterday. She thought for a moment, and the menu in her mind materialized: pan-fried buns and egg pancakes.
By the time it was nearly eight o’clock, both the pan-fried buns and egg pancakes were ready. Since she hadn’t bought any drinks, she simply called the hotel, asking the attendant to bring up a bottle of milk, which she had specially heated. She placed everything on the dining cart and left her room.
