The Hidden Wife Of The Cold CEO

After breakfast, Jia Li got the purple cabbage from her servant and started making her way towards the stairs, where she nearly bumped into Fu YingPei.

Fu YingPei was in a rush to leave for work when he nearly bumped into Jia Li, but he was fast enough to dodge her.

"Sister-in-law, are you okay?" Fu YingPei asked in a worried tone as he placed his hands on Jia Li's shoulder.

Just now, Jia Li was a little shocked. She thought she would have been rolling down the stairs by now, but she was lucky enough that Fu YingPei was fast enough to have dodged her.

"I'm fine..." Jia Li managed to reply with her two fingers pressing onto her temples.

"Do you feel dizzy?" Fu YingPei asked as he peered at her in worry.

"I will be fine in a bit. Please help me pick the cabbage." Jia Li requested as she pointed at the purple cabbage that rolled out of her hands.

As Fu YingPei still had his palms on her shoulder, he glanced over to the direction she pointed at and was in time to see Fu Hua standing there with creased brows.

Fu YingPei sighed in relief and immediately explained to him before he could question him as he slowly took his palms away from Jia Li's shoulders.

"Brother, I almost knocked sister-in-law over while I was in a rush, can you come and take a look at her, she seems to feel dizzy."

Fu Hua moved his gaze from his brother to his wife as a visible frown could be seen on her face.

When Jia Li met his gaze, she took her fingers away from her temples and immediately said to him, "I'm fine."

Fu YingPei glanced between the couple and felt the weird atmosphere. He didn't know if what he felt was right, but he didn't have time to dwell on it.

He walked down the stairs and to the place close to where Fu Hua stood, to pick the purple cabbage, and went back to hand it to Jia Li.

"Thank you!" Jia Li said to him as she received the vegetable.

Fu YingPei gave her a thumbs up ? before leaving their side.

Jia Li glanced at Fu Hua and felt a bit awkward. She didn't know the offense she committed for him to stare at her that way.

"You should be careful." Fu Hua said to her as he finally relaxed his brows.

Jia Li didn't say anything in return, and Fu Hua climbed the stairs to meet her. He glanced at the purple cabbage in her hands and asked, "You want to work on this?"

Jia Li glanced at the cabbage in her hand before glancing at him with a nod.

"Why did you choose it?" Fu Hua went on to ask. He was curious to know the reason for her pick.

"It looked attractive." Jia Li replied. That was her first impression of the purple cabbage when she set her eyes on it.

"Get ready to make an attractive dress." Fu Hua said and walked past her and continued climbing the stairs.

Jia Li was confused by his statement and glanced at the cabbage before glaring at his back, and then she chose to continue her journey while wondering what his words meant.

She didn't see anything wrong with the cabbage.

'Why did his words not sound like a compliment or an encouragement?' Jia Li thought as she climbed the stairs.

When Fu Hua set his eyes on the purple cabbage, he already foresaw the stress it was going to take to replicate a dress exactly like it.

He had in mind to tell Jia Li of the stress she would go through to makes her dress exactly like her design draft, but he changed his mind.

Sometimes, it was good to try out big and difficult tasks, it helps to break through to another level.

After taking his work bag from the room, Fu Hua left for work.

Jia Li had all morning to work on her design draft. When she finally completed it, the desk was already scattered with the remains of the purple cabbage and the items she worked with.

After admiring her work, Jia Li imagined the realistic dress in her head as a satisfied smile appeared on her face, before going on to tidy the room.

During Lunch, she stayed back in her room, since it was just her, Fu ChunHua, and Fu Hee that were at home, as the rest had left the house for their various jobs.

  Jia Li was afraid of her mother-in-law and didn't want any form of confrontation from her.

While hiding away, Jia Li slept off. She woke up minutes later from the knocks on the door. Opening her eyes, she yawned and had no idea how she fell asleep.

She felt so hungry as she got out of bed and went to answer the door.

She was surprised to see a servant standing outside the door with a trolley of food.

"Miss, the mistress said to take your lunch to you." The servant replied immediately she saw Jia Li.

"Oh... thank you!" Jia Li said as she allowed the servant to push the trolley inside the bedroom.

She was grateful to Fu ChunHua for asking the servant to send her lunch to her.

Since Fu ChunHua was the Mistress of the Fu Family, the servants all addressed her as the Mistress to Fu Hee's fury.

After laying out the food on the glass table, the servant left the trolley close to the door and stepped out of the room.

Jia Li quickly sat down and started eating. She found the food bland along the way. She didn't know if the problem was from her taste buds, but she still forced herself to finish it, because she was very hungry.

After eating, she drank from the glass of water and felt a lot better, before going into the inner room to make use of the bathroom.

After drinking the glass of water, she became pressed immediately.

After staying in her room for a little while, Jia Li went out to find Ocean.
