Loved By An Older Man

1319 Elder Cousin

Chu Jie took it for granted that the two people in front of her were real doctors. Therefore, she believed their words 100%. She smiled and said, “thank you, doctors. You can rest here for now, I’ll go back first. If you need anything, just tell me.”

With that, Chu Jie went out.

After she left, Shi Li made sure that there was no one around before he said to Xu Yang, “This miss Chu sure is devoted to our President Mo. If it wasn’t for the fact that my current status and situation are rather awkward, and if she was willing to treat me so well, I would definitely be moved.”

“Are you dreaming?” Xu Yang looked at him in disdain. “We have the president’s wife! Not only that, but there was only one! No matter how well she treated President Mo, he would never fall for her. As for you, she doesn’t like you.”

“I’m just casually saying, what are you really doing?” Shi Li scratched his head in embarrassment. “I didn’t say that I had to be with her.”

“Alright, now is not the time to joke around. We have an important mission now.” Xu Yang said, “not only do we have to keep in touch with Madam, but we also have to enrich our medical knowledge. Otherwise, they’ll see through our identities sooner or later. It’s just that the Chu family’s young miss doesn’t know much about this, so we were able to fool her.”

“I know, I know. You’re a man, don’t be so long-winded like a woman.” Shi Li said impatiently.

The two of them put their things away but did not change their clothes—because they did not bring any change of clothes.

“It’s a little hard for us to be private doctors.” Shi Li couldn’t help but ridicule.

As soon as he finished speaking, a sharp voice came from the door, “I haven’t been here for only a few days and you guys are already so lazy? Don’t tell me that the servants don’t have to do anything now, and the noble young miss has to go into the kitchen?”

“Miss Jiang, you’ve misunderstood,” the servants said in fear.

“I misunderstood? Isn’t the truth right in front of my eyes?” The woman’s voice became increasingly shrill. “The moment I entered, I saw all of you standing at the side while Chu Jie was cooking in the kitchen! You still dare to tell me that I’ve misunderstood?”

“It’s really not what you think …” The servants lowered their voices.

“Aiya, sister Jiang Rou, it’s really not what you think.” Chu Jie quickly came out of the kitchen. “I told them not to disturb me. Don’t blame them.”

“My dear sister, what are you doing? Why did you personally cook?” Jiang Rou knew that she had misunderstood the situation, but she didn’t feel the slightest bit of guilt towards the servants.

“I had the housekeeper make bird’s nest porridge a few days ago. Mr. Mo long felt pretty good after drinking it.” Chu Jie lowered her head shyly. “That’s why I thought of learning it myself. When the time comes, I’ll personally make it for Mr. Mo Long to drink.”

“Your mind is only filled with that Mr. Mo Long, isn’t it?” Jiang Rou patted Chu Jie’s head hard. “Don’t you have yourself in your heart? You’re a young lady from a rich family, what would it look like if others found out that you’re cooking in the kitchen?”

“I’m doing this of my own free will. No one forced me.” Chu Jie said, “alright, sister Jiang Rou. Go and sit on the sofa. When I’m done, I’ll get you a bowl of porridge.”

“I’m not interested in the congee you make.” Jiang Rou said, “if you have the time, why don’t you call your Mr. Mo Long out and let me take a look? I’d like to see which man has you head over heels for him.”

“He’s not in good health. He’s resting in his room now.” Chu Jie said, “his private doctor even came over from Shanghai today.”

“You’re still walking around when you’re not in good health?” Jiang Rou was disdainful. “You should just stay at home and recuperate. What are you doing here?”

“Sister Jiang Rou, please don’t say that.” Chu Jie frowned and was in a bad mood. “It’s my coming-of-age ceremony. My grandfather sent Mr. Mo long an invitation, so he came. He’s here to attend my coming of age ceremony, not to run around.”

Seeing her like this, Jiang Rou knew that she had lost her mind because of this man called “Mo Long.”

Hence, she could only say, “Alright, alright, alright. I won’t say anymore. As long as you’re happy.”

Chu Jie then returned to the kitchen and continued to cook the porridge.

Xu Yang and Shi Li were standing at the door of the room. After listening to the conversation, their expressions were somewhat solemn.

“Where did this Jiang Rou come from?” Xu Yang could not understand. “Why did it have to appear at this time?”
