Chapter 388 Getting Along Openly and Fairly
Aunt Zhang was picked up and dropped off by the old Yan family mansion by the mansion's driver, so she did not travel with Yan Zhixu and the others.
She also has her own things to do. For example, one of the main purposes of returning to the old house is to get some ingredients from here.
The old house has a dedicated person responsible for purchasing ingredients every day, such as air-freighted seafood, rare mountain products, and various tonics. Xiao Ling will notify her from time to time to come back and pick them up.
Today she received two large Australian lobsters, a box of bird's nest, and a box of black truffles from the kitchen.
Xiao Ling: "This bird's nest is of even better quality than the last one. Remember to stew more for Weiwei. Girls her age love beauty the most, and the family should help her take care of her skin."
Aunt Zhang replied with a smile, "Okay, I understand. I'll stew it for Miss Liang."
After replying, she realized something was wrong. She looked up at Xiao Ling and saw a "I knew it" expression in her eyes. Her heart skipped a beat.
Xiao Ling gave her a forced smile and said, "So, Weiwei and Zhixu are living together now, aren't they?"
Aunt Zhang chuckled dryly twice: "Madam, you guessed it yourself, it has nothing to do with me."
Xiao Ling scoffed, "No wonder Zhixu had his family order fresh milk for him too; it turns out they were keeping such a secret."
Aunt Zhang couldn't help but speak up for the two, whispering, "Madam, Young Master didn't mean to hide it, this kind of thing..."
She's a smart woman; she could tell from the fact that Young Master Zhi brought Miss Liang back to the Yan family's old residence yesterday that they were making their relationship public to their families.
The servants knew about the unpleasantness that happened to the Yan family last night, and they were quite scared at the time, fearing that things would escalate and become difficult to manage.
Thankfully, the situation was eventually calmed down, and Miss Liang was accepted by the Yan family. It was truly a joyous occasion!
Xiao Ling waved her hand: "I'm not saying anything. It's normal for them to be a couple. But you, you're taking care of their food and daily life over there. You need to pay more attention to it in the future. When you come back, you need to be more diligent. Tell me in advance what Weiwei likes to eat and use, and what the family can provide."
Aunt Zhang nodded hurriedly, "Yes, madam."
So, Mrs. Zhang, both happy and nervous, rode back to Qinglan Bay in the driver's car.
Carrying the groceries upstairs, she saw Liang Liangwei busy in the kitchen and quickly went over to her.
"Miss Liang, let me do it. You go and rest."
Liang Liangwei glanced at her and smiled, saying, "I'm already halfway done, I'll continue. You brought so much stuff back? Hurry up and put it away."
Aunt Zhang responded and began taking out the ingredients, placing them one by one into the corresponding positions in the refrigerator and storage cabinet.
After placing it down, she glanced back at Liang Liangwei, who was diligently marinating the thawed steak. Her movements were practiced, indicating that she was a seasoned cook.
The girl's profile was incredibly beautiful, with bright, sparkling eyes, a delicate nose, and full, rosy lips. She was the kind of girl whose beauty was captivating at first glance. She was sweet-talking, kind-hearted, considerate, and efficient. No wonder Young Master Zhi and the Yan family liked her so much.
"Miss Liang, where is Young Master Zhi?"
Liang Liangwei: "He's busy in his study."
Aunt Zhang gently shook the bird's nest and said, "This is what Madam asked me to bring over. She said I should stew more for Miss Liang."
Liang Liangwei glanced at it and laughed, "You really brought a lot of things, even bird's nest..."
She blinked, then suddenly turned around again, this time looking at Aunt Zhang.
Aunt Zhang chuckled awkwardly, "Miss Liang, I'm so sorry, but that's how Madam got the information out of me. She knows about you and Young Master Zhi... living together."
Liang Liangwei coughed lightly and smiled, "So what if you know? You'll find out sooner or later anyway."
Aunt Zhang hurriedly said, "Actually, it's good that the old family home knows, so that Miss Liang and Young Master Zhi can get along openly from now on."
Liang Liangwei smiled and said, "It wasn't anything secretive, it's just that some people don't know yet."
Aunt Zhang said with a smile, "Madam said this bird's nest is of even better quality than last time. Miss Liang, I'll stew a bowl for you tomorrow morning."
Liang Liangwei: "Okay, thank you."
The two worked together in the kitchen and quickly prepared lunch.
Liang Liangwei cooked the steak. She brought the steak to the table, took off her apron, and hung it back up.
She left the rest of the dishes to Aunt Zhang, finished her last sip of latte, and went upstairs.
Just as he was about to knock on the study door, the door opened by itself, and Yan Zhixu appeared at the door.
The two were stunned for a moment when they saw each other, then they both burst into laughter.
"Busy working?"
"Find me?"
Liang Liangwei: "It's almost time to eat. I'll come up and call you."
Yan Zhixu glanced downstairs over her shoulder; there was only one dish on the table.
He reached out and pulled the person into his arms, leading them into the study. He closed the door, held the person against the door panel, and leaned his head to kiss them.
Liang Liangwei was caught off guard by the kiss, her eyes widened, and she didn't know what to do with her hands.
A few seconds later, it slowly landed on the man's waist, gently resting there.
The man kissed her deeply, sucking on her lips, the kiss both intimate and passionate, making her gasp softly.
"Come up," he said in a low, hoarse voice.
Liang Liangwei panicked: "This is the study..."
Yan Zhixu: "Last night...you don't need to make it up to me?"
She glared at him reproachfully, her cheeks flushed: "Don't you even look at the time? It's broad daylight, and we're about to eat."
Yan Zhixu whispered, "I think it'll be a while longer, enough time for us to show off. I'll finish this quickly. Come on, darling."
Knowing that he couldn't exert much force with one hand, and that he was urging her on, she could only suppress her embarrassment and do as he said, stepping onto him.
The man carried her to the desk with one hand and gently placed her on it.
With a wave of his hand, he pushed the notebook, documents, and other items aside, then went to open the drawer to get T.
The movements were swift and decisive, as if they had been planned for a long time.
Stinky man!
He quickly succeeded.
She was preoccupied with the efficiency of Aunt Zhang downstairs, and her mind wandered from time to time.
The man noticed and punished her by biting her lip.
What are you thinking about that's distracting you?
Liang Liangwei let out a meow like a cat and weakly punched his arm.
"Either hurry up, or... shut up!"
The man chuckled softly, his eyes deep, the stray hairs falling across his forehead damp with an ambiguous moisture, swaying gently.
"These things should be enjoyed; don't rush them, it'll affect your performance~"
How dare he say that!
She glared at him, then simply closed her eyes, nestled her chin against his shoulder blade, and stopped arguing with him.
……
Finally, it was over. She was so exhausted that she could barely sit up. If she hadn't been leaning on the man, she would have collapsed onto the table.
Yan Zhixu gently pulled out tissues to clean each other up.
He then helped her put her clothes back on and jokingly asked, "Do you still have the strength? Shall I carry you down?"
Liang Liangwei pushed him away, suppressed the sourness, got off the ground, and straightened her disheveled clothes.
Turning around, I saw him fiddling with his phone. I frowned and said, "Aren't you leaving?"
Yan Zhixu: "Aunt Zhang sent me several WeChat messages 20 minutes ago, saying that it was time to eat. I sent them to you but you didn't reply, and I sent them to me but I didn't reply either."
Liang Liangwei sighed, "..."
Is this what you call a quick victory?
