After sparing two glances, Xu Chenghao could no longer contain himself and sat down at the dinner table, picking up a porcelain spoon to stir the lean meat porridge and devouring it first.
The nanny placed the last ham on the table, “Good morning, sir.”
“Good morning.” Xu Chenghao took the time to respond while eating, drank half of the bowl of lean meat porridge, and raised his chopsticks to attack the meat buns.
Seeing this, the nanny did not disturb his meal but turned around and left the dining room to start cleaning.
There were many different dishes to choose from, but the portions were exactly right. Xu Chenghao’s stomach was only 70 to 80 percent full after sweeping everything off the table; because probably he was hungry the night before, but it would have been perfect otherwise.
After eating and drinking, Xu Chenghao returned to the living room with satisfaction.
The nanny said worriedly, “Sir, is your head okay? Do you want to go to the hospital?”
Xu Chenghao touched the bandage he had put on: “Yes, just a little scratch.”
Nanny: “If the wound is big, you must pay attention to it.”
Xu Chenghao: “En, I know.”
Seeing this, the nanny didn’t continue to persuade him and returned to the dining room to clear the table and start cleaning the kitchen.
Xu Chenghao pondered what the original owner would do at this time and returned to his room to change into his suit, got the key to another car, told the nanny he was going to work, closed the door, and left.
The Xu family is powerful and has a solid foundation. It is comparable to the male lead’s family background. The only difference is that one son has the aura of a male protagonist, but the other is only the second male.
As the eldest son of the Xu family, the original owner was groomed as an heir. Following graduation, he took over the family business, sharing his father’s concerns and resolving problems, and setting an example every day by getting to and from work on time.
Because Xu Chenghao intended to replace him temporarily for some time, he had to act per his life norms and trajectory so that he would not put the other party in an embarrassing and ambiguous situation after he left.
Apart from being entangled in emotional matters, the original owner has impeccable integrity and responsibility, and he possesses the qualities to be the female lead’s greatest golden finger.
Xu Chenghao devoted himself to mental work all morning to avoid being perceived as abnormal by others.
When it was lunchtime, the special assistant pushed Xu Chenghao to go to the hospital to clean up the wound and re-bandage it professionally.
The special assistant’s name is Li Nian. Father Xu hand-picked him to assist his son in his business dealings. He’s been with Xu Chenghao for many years and has gradually developed into a buddy, and the relationship is incredibly excellent. When it comes to public affairs, he is unambiguous, but when it comes to personal matters, he resembles an elderly mother.
After discovering that Xu Chenghao had a simple bandage on his head, he was very nervous. When he finally got some free time, he hurriedly brought Xu Chenghao to the hospital and waited until the wound was treated before he breathed a sigh of relief.
“What tiny injury ah, do you know that it got broken at the critical point?” Li Nian nagged as the two went out of the hospital together. If I had known, I would have pulled you here as soon as I saw you.” “I truly believed in your terrible remarks and let you hold up all morning.”
Xu Chenghao touched the wound with a guilty conscience: “Okay, isn’t it already bandaged?”
“Haha, believe it or not, if the wound moves up a little bit farther, after touching the hairline, you will no longer have hair in this part?” Li Nian replied as he opened the car door to let him in.
“Is baldness okay?! “
Xu Chenghao: “…”
Poisonous enough.
Seeing that Xu Chenghao stopped talking, Li Nian closed the car door with satisfaction, walked around the front of the car, and got into the driver’s seat, taking him to dinner.
Li Nian drove Xu Chenghao straight to the herbal food garden to replenish his body because the wound was unsuitable for eating irritating food. But, he never expected to find a very familiar woman crying in the hall as soon as he arrived.
Opposite of her sat Mrs. Ruan with an indifferent face. A suspicious check was placed on the table, and he could tell what was going on just by looking at it; Li Nian turned around without hesitation and pushed Xu Chenghao out: “This restaurant is full, let’s go for a walk, and change to another one to eat.”
Xu Chenghao helplessly brushed his hand away and said in a gentle tone, “A Nian, I am taller than you.”
He also saw the female lead as soon as he entered the door, and he sighed with emotion that the halo of the female lead made it so that the second male lead coincidentally appeared when she was in crisis.
Li Nian: “…”
You are also poisonous enough!
After the two good friends hurt each other, Xu Chenghao regained his calm and said lightly: “Go, go in and book a private room to eat.” Li Nian looked at him suspiciously, seemingly wondering why he didn’t care. Obviously, the other party was responsible for the wound on his head. Is this…Could it be that after hurting his head yesterday afternoon, the water from his head came out?”
Li Nian was pleasantly surprised and took Xu Chenghao through the lobby directly to the front desk, asking for a private room.
It’s a pity that the female lead’s halo was stronger than Li Nian thought. Even if he didn’t care about her business, it came knocking on his door anyway.
Li Nian just said to the waiter, “One private room.”
He heard someone behind shout expectantly, “Hao gege ……”
Li Nian’s face darkened, and he turned his head to look behind him. Not far away, An Rouyu, who was still crying just now, stood up and stared straight at this place, her tearful eyes full of hope. She probably thought that Xu Chenghao was still like before, running to rescue her when she met something troubling.
Mrs. Ruan, who sat across from An Rouyu, uncomfortably straightened her back. She’d heard about Xu Chenghao’s reputation as a flower protector and was thinking about how to deal with it. Even Li Nian, who stood next to him, regarded him with suspicion, his eyes showing that he had previously offered to assist An Rouyu. The man who had already stood up to prepare to act out the hero saves the beauty in a different private room in the Herbal Food Garden suddenly appeared sharp, clenching his fingers, waiting for Xu Chenghao’s reaction.
For a moment, Xu Chenghao felt that the eyes of everyone present were resting on his own body, waiting for his response and move.
Help? The villain will soon realize that he was lying to him that day, that he was stalling, and he will receive the terrifying gift of a broken leg. His family will face oppression while he is out of the country.
Not to help? No one can say anything in the interest of reason, and everything will be fine.
So, Xu Chenghao’s response was to smile and nod in greeting, as if he had seen someone he knew in general, and then turned to ask the waiter, “Is it ready?”
The waiter immediately stepped forward and made a gesture of invitation, “Yes, please come with me.”
Xu Chenghao didn’t care about the female lead’s reaction. He directly hooked Li Nian’s shoulders and led him to follow the waiter’s guidance toward the private room.
“Hao gege!” A voice of disbelief and despair came from behind.
She seemed to be crying.
But Xu Chenghao’s footsteps never stopped, and he never turned his head.
His reaction depressed An Rouyu, and Mrs.Ruan breathed a sigh of relief, but after further consideration, Xu Chenghao recognized this woman’s true face. What was wrong with her son’s vision?!
The more Mrs. Ruan thought, the angrier she became, and she frowned,
“Miss An, to show you some respect, I’ll speak gently, I know that, despite being the eldest Miss of the An family, you are not living a good life, I will provide money to help you travel overseas as a charity, even if you don’t want to, do it for him!”
After throwing off the harsh words, Mrs. Ruan took her bag and left haughtily.
An Ruoyu wiped away her tears, placed the check at the front desk, and finally glanced sadly in the direction of Xu Chenghao’s private room, and then left.
…… in a separate private room, Jing Yicheng’s eyes were fixed on the monitor. When Xu Chenghao turned to look at An Ruoyu, countless thoughts that could make the other party retreat flashed in his head, but he didn’t expect the other party to nod his head only.
It’s that simple.
Simple and flat, flat as if…He really gave up.
He couldn’t help but trace the figure of Xu Chenghao, who didn’t follow the routine on the monitor and waited until the other party entered his private room before wrinkling his brow and pondering what was going on with the other party.
The bodyguard standing behind whispered: “Sir… Miss An has already left. ”
Jing Yicheng snapped back to his senses, then remembered that he got up to go out as a hero to save the beauty to gain goodwill, but now his eyes searched twice on the monitor, but there was no figure of An Rouyu, and he frowned immediately.
All his attention just now was taken away by Xu Chenghao.
His intuition is telling him that something is wrong with Xu Chenghao! Maybe he is plotting something!
Thinking of this, Jing Yicheng ordered, “Find someone to follow Xu Chenghao, and come to inform me if anything goes wrong.”
Bodyguard: “Yes.”
Jing Yicheng’s agitated mood significantly subsided after he gave the order. Everything is still on course, and everything will work out just fine.
Xu Chenghao didn’t know that the villain was eyeing him again, and he was still happily drinking chicken soup with Li Nian-real chicken soup, a sweet chicken soup with an orangish aftertaste.
Li Nian was taken aback by his sudden sobriety, but he couldn’t ask Xu Chenghao any more questions for fear of making him upset, so he could only get more supplements and drink chicken soup with him.
When the two of them came out again after eating and drinking, it was already calm outside.
Xu Chenghao returned to the company and began his hectic schedule. He tried to replicate the way the second male lead handled official matters. The Xu Group was large and had a lot of things. Once he started working, all thoughts of the female lead and villains became documents in his mind.
After spending a month calmly in this way, Xu Chenghao has perfectly adapted to his current life and quietly integrated into the world.
The female lead has been absent from his life for some days. Aside from work, all Xu Chenghao did was rest. His life was busy but organized. Xu Chenghao even felt that this kind of life was very similar to his five-to-nine work mode before he transmigrated into the book world, and he felt much happier.
On this day, Xu Chenghao had just showered and changed into pajamas, ready to rest. He suddenly smelled chili peppers in his nostrils, spicy and choking………..
Xu Chenghao felt that he had a large plate of chili peppers in his house for a moment, and the nanny was frying it with hot oil.
When he was surprised and suspicious, the smell disappeared quickly, and the room returned to its usual smell. Xu Chenghao lowered his head and smelled it again, and he could smell the water vapor on his body after bathing.
What’s going on?
Why are there still supernatural events!
When Xu Chenghao was scratching his head and even felt a little ridiculous, the small pepper task in his head was automatically launched.
