Chapter 121 - 122: Young Master Qin is Awesome (7)
Lou Xi carried the food into Qin Mobai’s office, watching him sit in the chair handling documents, so focused on work that he didn’t even notice Lou Xi coming in.
It wasn’t until the aroma of the food reached Qin Mobai’s nose that he lifted his head from the documents and, seeing that it was Lou Xi, a charming smile appeared on his lips.
But while he was smiling on the surface, inside his heart...
Ha, Su Lin, you really dare to send anyone! Are you just afraid I’d give you a tough job, so you sent Lou Xi in with the meal?
Think you can escape trouble like this?
Hmm, alright then.
Qin Mobai kind of accepted Su Lin’s fawning way.
After all, earlier in a meeting with partners, Chu Lin Yuan was dissatisfied with the details, causing the meeting to halt midway.
So he was in a slightly bad mood, but seeing Lou Xi bringing the food, he felt... a little better.
"Assistant Su said you haven’t eaten yet, stop working for a bit, come and eat something before getting back to work!" Lou Xi carefully laid out the exquisite dishes on the coffee table, the aroma filling the office, and Qin Mobai actually felt a bit hungry.
"When did you start taking up an errand job?" Although Qin Mobai said this, he got up from the chair and walked towards the coffee table.
"Do you skip meals when you’re busy with work?"
Qin Mobai didn’t expect Lou Xi to ask this, he raised an eyebrow and didn’t answer.
"So, it’s true then." Lou Xi looked distressed, "Do you have a stomach issue? Skipping meals causing pain? Having to drink a lot at business gatherings?"
Qin Mobai sat next to Lou Xi, still not answering because she guessed it right! What was there left for him to deny?
"Seems like you’re quite worried about me." Qin Mobai felt a bit happy inside, having a girlfriend so concerned for him, he should let Lu Li know and make him envious.
Lou Xi blinked innocently and said, "No, it’s just that novels and TV dramas always portray it like that; the busy president is too occupied to eat, and still has to drink much at functions. So I figured you must be working hard, and I need to be even nicer to you!"
Uh-huh, the first part can mostly be ignored, the second part is the main point.
"Young Master Qin, eat more vegetables to supplement vitamins. You’re in front of the computer for long periods, you should eat more." She picked up a lot of vegetables for Qin Mobai, "And you need to eat more meat too, balance yin and yang!"
As Lou Xi busily talked to herself, Qin Mobai’s plate was stacked with a heap of veggies.
"What did you have for lunch?"
Qin Mobai slowly ate the vegetables Lou Xi picked for him and asked.
For lunch... Lou Xi had spicy hotpot with Bai Lu but had no appetite because of Li Ruolan’s incident.
So she hadn’t really eaten anything yet.
As expected, Qin Mobai heard Lou Xi’s stomach growling.
Qin Mobai frowned slightly and said, "Why do you always do things that make people worried? You’re not eating properly when I’m not around? If I catch you doing this again, I’ll make you gain ten pounds in a week!"
He said, half-threatening, then picked up a lot of food and placed it in front of Lou Xi.
"Eat it!"
"This is all for you!" How could Lou Xi compete for food with the president?
"If you don’t eat it, I’ll dock your pay for today."
"Young Master Qin, you can’t abuse your power!"
"Abusing my power would be more than just this." Qin Mobai’s mesmerizing gaze moved directly up and down Lou Xi, a look of male possession over a woman.
