Chapter 1323 - Self-inflicted Suffering
His smile was like that of an old wine jar. It was mellow and enchanting, one would only get drunk if they didn't drink it. Yan Luo Yi curled up into a ball.Early morning.
Yan Luo Yi's alarm clock woke her up at 6: 30. She was wearing a hanging pajamas, and as she walked, the seductive Resurrection Lily on her shoulder seemed to come to life.On her shoulders, which were as white as snow, there was a crimson colour like blood.
She was standing in the morning light, stretching, when a kitten squatting at her feet looked up at her.
"You're awake!" Yan Luo Yi crouched down and picked it up. Looking at its soft and shiny white fur, she smiled and said, "Then can I call you Little White?"
"Meow …" The kitten seemed to agree.
"Little White." Yan Luo Yi gently stroked its fur and put it down, then she walked towards the direction of the wardrobe. Yan Luo Yi pushed open the door and came out. It was only seven o'clock, and the entire Pavilion Lord Manor was quiet.
She thought, Pan Lixin must still be awake! She had just thought about it when she saw a dark golden man standing in front of the tea cabinet in the hall. The man wearing only a silk robe was drinking water in front of the cabinet.
Yan Luo Yi was immediately shocked, she did not expect him to arrive so early as well."Good morning." Pan Lixin greeted with narrowed eyes.
"Good morning, sir." Yan Luo Yi looked at him and quickly shifted her eyes away, not daring to look any further.
It was the first time she had seen a man in a nightgown. It was very awkward.
Pan Lixin carried her cup and walked towards the stairs, elegantly climbing them.
Yan Luo Yi raised her head to look at his back. She had never thought that a man wearing a nightgown would actually be so pleasing to the eyes.
It was a little bit like those bloodsucking aristocrats that were meticulously filmed in foreign movies.Yan Luo Yi walked around the garden outside the hall and returned, but she did not see Pan Lixin heading downstairs.
It wasn't right for her to go up now, for fear of running into him again and walking around in his dressing gown.At the moment, on the other side of the third floor, in the fitness room, Pan Lixin had already changed into a fitness suit, and was practicing her body on the treadmill. This was a workout he did every morning, he was usually too busy, and would choose to do it in the morning before going to bed.
During breakfast, Pan Lixin asked the owner of the restaurant for the kitten. The owner was very willing to let Yan Luo Yi not raise it, so Yan Luo Yi could ask him for advice anytime.
When Pan Lixin left, he immediately gave her a mission, to keep cats.
When Yan Luo Yi walked back from the direction of the dining hall, she felt that something was amiss.
Why was her job just to raise cats? She had come to take care of his life.
Yan Luo Yi did not expect him to be so attentive. When Qin Zheng came, he already brought over a beautiful cat house, some good cat food and a few cat playing toys.Qin Zheng put it down and left. Yan Luo Yi stared blankly for a few seconds, then carried all the things back to her room.
After giving Cat something to eat, she called her brother and asked him how he was recovering.Yan Luo Yi played with the cat, read the books, and spent the entire day in Pavilion Lord Manor.
In the evening, a call came from the direction of the dining room, asking her to come over for dinner.
When she came, Pan Lixin was already there. Yan Luo Yi spent the entire day thinking about one thing.
She felt that she was here, wasting not only his food but also his time.
In this world, where could one find a cat that specialized in raising?"Sir, I have something to say." Yan Luo Yi summoned the courage to speak.
"Hm!" Speak! " Pan Lixin raised her head and looked at her.
"I came here to work for you, but I don't seem to find out what I can do, what I can't do, and instead give you more trouble, so... Can I ask to quit the job? " Yan Luo Yi's eyes revealed a pleading look.Pan Lixin stopped drinking and turned to look over, "Who said you don't have a job? I'm just letting you rest for two days. From now on, I'll tell you what you have to do every day. "
Yan Luo Yi was slightly stunned. "What should I do?""In the morning, before I wake up, grind a cup of coffee for me. What I'm doing now, around nine, start cleaning my room, cleaning my clothes for the dry-cleaners, in the afternoon, cleaning my study and the hall, in the evening, before I come back, make me another cup of coffee, and before I go to sleep, tidy up my bed, and prepare my pajamas. These are your routine tasks from now on."
Yan Luo Yi's eyes also widened a little. Her job was really to become a protective mother!
After Pan Lixin finished speaking, he looked at her expression, and then said with narrowed eyes, "It seems like there's nothing much to do?"
Yan Luo Yi immediately shook her head. These things were enough for her to do for an entire day.
Pan Lixin could not help but laugh in his heart. If she had not mentioned it earlier, he would have allowed her to continue playing like this."But I can't make coffee." Yan Luo Yi bit her lips.
"I'll teach you when we get back." Pan Lixin finished taking care of the government affairs, and his entire being had become relaxed.
To him, the time he spent with her was the time where he was the most relaxed."Alright." Just a moment ago, she thought that she had nothing to do, but now, all of a sudden, her schedule for the entire day was completely filled.
Returning back to the hall after dinner, Pan Lixin said to her, "Come here, I'll teach you how to brew coffee."
Yan Luo Yi immediately followed him obediently to the front of a row of coffee utensils.Pan Lixin's tall and sturdy body easily took down the bottle of fine coffee beans, and walked to the front of a grinder. This was a hand-shaking coffee grinder, he poured a cup and poured, then patiently grinded out the finest amount of coffee grounds.
Yan Luo Yi, who was standing at the side, immediately became interested as she watched with wide eyes.
"Come here and try." Pan Lixin grinded it halfway and asked her to come over.Yan Luo Yi immediately walked in front of him and extended her hand to grind the coffee beans. When Pan Lixin was free, her serious expression caught her eye.
This was what it meant to fall in love with someone, to unconditionally fall in love with her.Yan Luo Yi looked at the ground coffee and felt a sense of accomplishment. She looked at the ground coffee and asked the man, "What do we do next?"
Pan Lixin retracted her gaze, took a coffee making equipment, poured the powder on top of a layer of filter paper, and placed it on a small stove to the side to cook it.
"No need to boil it, the best temperature is between 94 degrees, it's the most suitable."
It was only a minute or so before the man pressed down on the filter paper. The coffee that floated up was fragrant, and he poured it into a delicate coffee cup.Yan Luo Yi nodded after learning seriously.
"Shall we have a try?" Pan Lixin looked at her as she stared at the brewed coffee, researching its quality.
"Can I?" Yan Luo Yi really wanted to repay the favor. It smelled really good, she knew that it wasn't sweet and fragrant at all.Pan Lixin picked up a spoon and added half a spoonful of sugar for her, causing her to blow on it involuntarily as she gently blew on it. Pan Lixin looked at her red lips that were kissing the rim of the cup and her Adam's apple inexplicably moved.
Yan Luo Yi only took a single sip, as her entire face creased in pain.
Pan Lixin laughed, and was actually happy, he immediately extended his hand and brought the coffee over, "This is the flavor that I usually love to drink."
Yan Luo Yi really couldn't understand, why would this man like this type of bitter coffee. "I'm going to the study. Go upstairs and tidy up my room." With that, Pan Lixin carried away the cup of coffee.
Yan Luo Yi was startled, seeing that he was about to leave, she suddenly reacted, "Wait, this cup is for me."What he meant was, should he make another cup?
However, the man replied in a low voice, "It's fine! I don't mind. "
After the man finished speaking, he left. Behind him, Yan Luo Yi's mind went blank for a few seconds. He doesn't mind?
His head was blank and his face was inexplicably hot."The medicine is on the table. Remember to bring it back to your room and apply it." The man did not forget to remind him again.
It was only then that Yan Luo Yi realised that there was a piece of medicine on the table. Her heart warmed, when did this man leave it there? Could it be placed in the morning?Yan Luo Yi immediately thought of going upstairs to clean up his bed, so she washed the coffee pot.
She had not entered his bedroom yet. Standing at the door, she nervously reached out her hand and pushed it open, only to see that in the middle of the master bedroom, there was a large bed with gold edges. The bed was at the center of the room.
If it was said that the average age of the protective mother s were above thirty, letting a girl who had just walked out of school to do all these things seemed to be inappropriate.
