Cheng Liu didn’t know what her chief assistant was thinking. She drove all the way to Wenxing Community in high spirits and stopped downstairs to send a message to her boyfriend.
Number six: [I’m here!]
… …
Upstairs.
When the phone vibrated, Ji Chaozhou was sitting at the table with downcast eyes, his neat and slender fingers were holding some paper tape, wrapping around the roots of the lily of the valley.
After discarding the idea of making Ji Mushan take his back bodyguard last night, Ji Chaozhou finally decided to accept the existence of this bodyguard, so he sent her a message in the morning.
He was going to visit Aunt Yun.
… …
Cheng Liu was sitting in the car, turning her head to look at the unit door from time to time, wondering when her boyfriend would come down.
After waiting for about ten minutes, Cheng Liu finally saw her boyfriend come out from the inside, but when she saw him, she was stunned.
The boyfriend was wearing a lightweight, black windbreaker today, all the buttons were buttoned up neatly, inside was a white shirt, the lotus leaf collar curling around his slender neck, under the black trousers was a pair of white shoes, and there was a familiar lily-of-the-valley bouquet in his hand.
He walked slowly from the shade to the sun, and at that moment he seemed like a young nobleman walking out from a medieval oil painting.
Obviously, his whole body was covered tightly, only half of his slender neck and a small part of his thin, cold, pale wrist were exposed.
But Cheng Liu in the car was dizzy just by looking at him. Her boyfriend was too… too sexy!
She regained her senses, and immediately went out to open the car door for her boyfriend, and then suffered a beauty attack at close range, which made Cheng Liu feel her nose was hot, and she subconsciously stretched out her hand to wipe it—it was full of blood.
Seeing that the bodyguard opened the door of the passenger seat again, Ji Chaozhou tilted his head and wanted to say that he was sitting in the back, when he realized that the bodyguard was bleeding from the nose.
He frowned, “What’s wrong with you?”
Cheng Liu covered her nose and said in a low voice, “I’m fine, you sit in first.”
As soon as Ji Chaozhou got inside, Cheng Liu went around and sat in from the other side. She opened the middle console, took out several tissues one after another, and wiped her nose.
Fortunately, there was no more flow. She heaved a sigh of relief.
Cheng Liu turned sideways again, rummaged through to find the wet wipes, and wiped her fingers clean.
Seeing her boyfriend next to her staring at her, Cheng Liu suddenly felt the need to defend herself, “I stayed up too late last night.”
It was definitely not because she watched her boyfriend that she got a nosebleed.
She just worked and stayed up late, that’s all. That must be the case.
Ji Chaozhou looked away slowly, the bodyguard looked very young, probably the child was still small, so she had to stay up late to take care of the child.
“You don’t have to come if you don’t have time,” Ji Chaozhou said calmly and looked out the window. He asked the other party to pick him up, but he only intended for her to deal with Ji Mushan so he won’t come bother Ji Chaozhou anymore.
Upon hearing this, Cheng Liu immediately replied, her voice serious, “I’m available anytime, you can come to me for anything you need.”
Ji Chaozhou didn’t reply to her. Instead, just gave her an address, cradled the lily-of-the-valley to himself, leaned back against the seat and closed his eyes.
Cheng Liu glanced at her boyfriend quickly, but she didn’t dare to look any further, she was afraid that if she got emotional again, she would get another nosebleed.
How shameless!
…. …
The place they went to was a bit remote, but the environment was excellent. Cheng Liu finally stopped the car in front of a villa.
Before she could open the door for her boyfriend, he had already gone down by himself.
Cheng Liu had no choice but to follow quickly.
The boyfriend seemed to be familiar with this place—he walked straight through the villa grounds and headed towards the garden.
Cheng Liu followed behind him, seeing her boyfriend’s footsteps gradually slowing down, she raised her eyes and looked forward.
A woman wearing a light blue cheongsam was sitting in a wheelchair, with a dark red shawl covering her shoulders. She was watering the flowers. Wearing elegant pearl earrings, although the face in profile was thin, you can still see the original beauty.
There was a caretaker standing beside her.
“Aunt Yun.”
Hearing the voice, the woman in the wheelchair turned her head. Her face showed signs of a lingering illness, but she was still quite beautiful. She smiled when she saw Ji Chaozhou, “Why are you here today?”
“Didn’t you say you wanted some lily-of-the-valley?” Ji Chaozhou stepped forward and handed a bunch of lily-of-the-valley to the woman.
The woman in the wheelchair took the white flowers with a smile, lowered her head, and sniffed delicately. “I just mentioned it casually, did Yun Fei bother you again?”
Ji Chaozhou’s usually noble and indifferent face softened slightly, “Aunt Yun is no trouble at all.”
Cheng Liu, standing behind him, looked at the somewhat similar faces of the two, and fell into deep thought. It seems that her boyfriend brought her to meet his elders, but she didn’t bring a gift!
At this time, the woman in the wheelchair also spotted Cheng Liu, and turned her head to ask Ji Chaozhou, “Who is this?”
“Bodyguard.” Ji Chaozhou walked behind Aunt Yun and pushed the wheelchair for her.
Yun Se was taken aback for a moment, but she was not very interested in bodyguards.
She wanted to talk to Chaozhou alone, so she said to the nurse, “Take her to the living room.”
… …
Of course, Cheng Liu heard her boyfriend say that she was a bodyguard, but she didn’t react. In fact, she even breathed a sigh of relief.
In the past, several business partners said that when their wives were angry, they would occasionally give them different names on purpose and pretend to be strangers.
This was all part of the fun of being in a relationship!
And she really didn’t bring a gift when she came to the door this time.
Being a ‘bodyguard’ unexpectedly also gave a good feeling.

T/N: I looked up what ‘lotus-leaf collar’ for men would look like, and Google spat out this image. I guess Ji Chaozhou is channeling his inner Christine to Cheng Liu’s crazed Phantom of the Opera.
