It was an hour, no sooner or later.
Shui Anluo finished making dinner. It consisted of four simple dishes, a pot of soup and some rice. However, she had put extra effort into making this rice which was now covered by a plate.
Shui Anluo set the table and sent some dishes over to Maid Yu before she went upstairs to call Chu Ningyi for dinner.
Chu Ningyi was currently having a video conference but his expression was serious. The person on the other end was still talking yet he, who was wearing earphones, did not seem to be listening.
“I didn’t hire all of you just to listen to you say that it’s impossible and it can’t be done. If that’s the case, I think you can all make your way to human resources, get your month’s pay and leave,” Chu Ningyi said in a sunken voice. When he heard the knock on the door, he took his earphones off and looked up. “Come in.”
Shui Anluo opened the door but did not come in. Instead, she stared at him as she leaned against the doorway. “Food’s ready.”
“Mm,” Chu Ningyi nodded and did not say anything more to the person on the other end. He turned the screen off immediately.
Shui Anluo watched Chu Ningyi walk out. She placed her hands behind her and followed him. “Were you discussing Soaring Distance Technologies’ issues?”
Chu Ningyi walked in front of her and calmly replied. “You still haven’t begged me.”
Shui Anluo pursed her lips and followed him downstairs.
Chu Ningyi looked at the dishes on the table. There were sweet and sour pork ribs, red braised crucian carp, stir-fried vegetables, and edible tree-fungus with salad dressing. These were all home-cooked dishes but they suited his taste. This girl actually remembered what he liked to eat.
Chu Ningyi pulled out a chair and sat down. He watched Shui Anluo hand him a chopstick and continued to watch her. The dishes were here but where was the rice?
Shui Anluo placed the plate in front of him and spoke in a mysterious tone. “If you like this rice, be my chief of staff.”
“Just chief of staff?” Chu Ningyi raised his brow.
Shui Anluo’s smile grew awkward. She was too embarrassed to say the words: ‘Fix everything for me.’
Chu Ningyi pushed her hand away and uncovered the plate. The rice on the plate has been shaped into the form of a human who was dressed in an army uniform.
Shui Anluo knew that he had been in the army in the past. Some people say that anyone who had been in the army would hold some form of sentiment. They would not be able to abandon their uniforms, even after being discharged.
That was why she had made this.
“What do you think? This rice…”
Before Shui Anluo could finish speaking, Chu Ningyi suddenly rose to his feet and abruptly flung the rice off the table to the ground with every muscle in his body. The vicious currents surrounding his being were enough to freeze Shui Anluo and it terrified her.
“Ahh!” Shui Anluo screamed in shock. She took a step back to prevent the broken pieces of the plate from cutting her leg.
Chu Ningyi strode out as if he was restraining some sort of emotion yet seemingly afraid of hurting Shui Anluo.
When Maid Yu rushed out after hearing the noise, Chu Ningyi had already slammed the door shut and walked out of the house. Shui Anluo was left standing foolishly next to the table.
It had happened too quickly. Even now, she was unable to comprehend what had happened.
Maid Yu rushed to Shui Anluo’s side with one hand on her back. “What’s happened now?”
Shui Anluo looked down at the rice on the floor and the sweet and sour pork ribs that had been shattered along with it. She clenched her fists on her sides. “I-I don’t know either.”
Maid Yu patted Shui Anluo’s hand. “It’s alright, it’s alright, don’t be afraid. Tell me what happened? I’ll talk to him for you.”
Shui Anluo shook her head. “I just made some rice for him, then…” Shui Anluo explained and turned towards the closed door. She had clearly agitated Chu Ningyi but she did not know how she had done so.
