Chapter 121 - 121 121 - Nowhere Normal on the Body

?Chapter 121: Chapter 121 – Nowhere Normal on the Body Chapter 121: Chapter 121 – Nowhere Normal on the Body As for Zhu Qianying, strictly speaking, they weren’t close acquaintances, the total time they had spent together was probably not even a hundred hours.

Yet, with just a few glances, she noticed that he had lost weight.

What a strange phenomenon!

“Hmm, I guess, you’ve probably lost about five or six pounds?”

Zhu Qianying’s gaze once again scanned him from top to bottom like an X-ray.

Goodness, how is Heaven so biased towards this Boss Guimao?

Not only was he born into such a prominent family, but he also possesses such a wickedly sharp and calculating mind and a handsome face that incites anger amongst Gods and humans alike. And indeed, the model-like physique that draws attention everywhere…

“Five pounds.”

Eldest Young Master Yan had weighed himself in the morning. He was precisely five pounds lighter than last month.

How does Eldest Young Master Yan know his own weight so precisely? That’s because his private doctor/nutritionist gives him a routine checkup every month, and weight is obviously included in the examination.

If Zhu Qianying knew this, it would invariably add another item to his list of peculiarities.

Zhu Qianying originally wanted to tease Eldest Young Master Yan, but when she heard that he had truly lost some weight, she couldn’t bring herself to jest anymore.

For some reason, without even thinking, Zhu Qianying naturally assumed his weight loss was due to overworking.

“That’s perfect, my mother made some tonic soup today, you should have a few more bowls.”

The tonic soup that Chen Jing had made wasn’t intended for Eldest Young Master Yan, of course. She felt that her daughter had been breaking her heart running around because of her issues. Now that the mother and daughter had finally left the past behind and started anew, as a mother, she was supposed to take care of her daughter’s physical health first.

She might not have many strengths, but when it came to food and nutrition, there was nothing she couldn’t handle.

As a result, today’s dinner, although seemingly simple, was very balanced and exquisite from both a nutritional and a taste perspective.

“Okay!” answered Eldest Young Master Yan, unexpectedly calm and even nodding obediently.

Seeing the unusually compliant Eldest Young Master Yan, Zhu Qianying suddenly didn’t know what to say.

Luckily, at that moment the doorbell rang. Looking through the peephole, she saw it was Eldest Young Master Yan’s dedicated driver.

“Brother Chen, come in and have dinner with us!”

Zhu Qianying opened the door and took the bag from Brother Chen.

“Thank you, Miss Wu,” said Brother Chen, then turning to Eldest Young Master Yan, he said, “Young Master, I’ll go down first.”

Zhu Qianying found the bag to be quite heavy, she opened it to see what was inside. In addition to slippers, there were also a cup, towel, toothbrush, toothpaste, and even a dental cup!

Zhu Qianying’s eyelids twitched. She looked at Boss Guimao, barely suppressing her laughter, “Eldest Young Master Yan, why didn’t you ask Brother Chen to bring your shaving cream, razor, robe, and sleeping bag too?”

Eldest Young Master Yan gave her a thoughtful look, took the bag from her, “If I need them later, I’ll ask him to send them up.”

“You!”

Zhu Qianying glared at Eldest Young Master Yan, unable to find the proper words to express her complex emotions.

Eldest Young Master Yan, however, ignored her. He took out the slippers, gave the rest to her, and started to change his shoes while leaning against the wall.

Zhu Qianying felt that she had been a complete fool to feel the slightest bit of pity for this Boss Guimao!

She threw the bag onto the sofa, walked straight to the dining table, sat down, and started drinking her soup.

“Ying’er, is there enough flavor in the soup? Or are you feeling sick? Can’t taste anything?”

Chen Jing still hadn’t realized that her daughter had sent her away on a pretext earlier, she was worried about her daughter’s health at this moment.

“Hmm, maybe!” Zhu Qianying thought. Even if she wasn’t originally irritated, seeing Eldest Young Master Yan would quickly get her broth boiling.

“Ying’er, why did you start eating? Wait for Eldest Young Master Yan!”

Chen Jing saw her daughter put down her soup bowl and started eating with her chopsticks, and yet, Eldest Young Master Yan had just picked up a towel to wash his face.

“Mom, I’ve been cleaning all afternoon, I’m starving. Come and sit down, he’s going to eat when he’s done washing his face. He’s just another man, no need for so many rules!”

Chen Jing shook her head but didn’t have the heart to rebuke her daughter. She went to the kitchen, brought out the warm milk she had just heated and pushed it in front of her daughter.

Zhu Qianying took a sip of the milk, looked up, and caught Eldest Young Master Yan’s eyes.

“What are you drinking?” Eldest Young Master Yan glanced at the cup in her hand.

Zhu Qianying shook the milk in her cup and said with a smile, “Mortal Dew.”

Eldest Young Master Yan sat down with a doubtful face. Chen Jing gave Zhu Qianying a glare, “Eldest Young Master Yan, don’t listen to her nonsense. That’s milk, not ‘Mortal Dew’.”

Upon hearing Chen Jing’s explanation, Eldest Young Master Yan was even more puzzled, “Why are you drinking milk at dinner?”

Zhu Qianying didn’t bother to answer him. She put down the cup, picked up her bowl, and started eating. She had said she was hungry, and she wasn’t lying. They could have had dinner at six, but because they had to wait for Boss Guimao, they waited until seven.

Chen Jing had no choice but to explain to Eldest Young Master Yan, “Ying’er has had this bad habit since she was little, she likes to drink a cup of warm milk before dinner.”

Eldest Young Master Yan took a sip of soup, “That’s really strange!”

Just like a cat whose tail got stepped on, Zhu Qianying shot a glance at Eldest Young Master Yan, “Eldest Young Master Yan, who gave you the right to say I’m strange? You’re the one who’s a weirdo, and you have the nerve to say I’m strange!”

Did this Boss Guimao think that he was perfectly normal?

Eldest Young Master Yan always had a good image of himself. Now, he showed no signs that he thought himself strange. After he finished his soup, he picked up a piece of meat with his chopsticks. After chewing a few bites, he finally asked.

“In what ways am I a weirdo?”

Initially, he had been quite tired, however, after washing his face and having a bowl of soup, he felt much more energized, and hence, he didn’t mind some bantering with Zhu Qianying.

Zhu Qianying took a few moments to inspect him, “There isn’t a single normal thing about you. Hasn’t anyone told you that?”

Chen Jing, who had previously experienced Eldest Young Master Yan’s temper, had always been somewhat fearful of him. Now, seeing her daughter bicker with him so disrespectfully, she was secretly breaking out in a cold sweat.

She pulled her daughter’s arm and gave her a meaningful glance as she feared that if her daughter continued, she would annoy Eldest Young Master Yan and ruin the happy dinner.

Interestingly, Eldest Young Master Yan showed no signs of anger. Instead, he was calmly eating and glancing at his daughter.

“No one has. You tell me!”

To Zhu Qianying’s surprise, Eldest Young Master Yan didn’t get angry. Not only did he not get upset, he even invited her to elaborate on her grievances. Was this man truly the Eldest Young Master Yan that she knew?

“Let’s not go too far. Just recently when I, as a host, told you that you could walk in with your shoes since it’s convenient to clean the floor, you still insisted on changing into slippers. Is this normal?”

Eldest Young Master Yan was slightly taken aback, in his eyes, this was his lifestyle, and it was unrelated to being strange.

“This is abnormal? It’s just my lifestyle, what’s unusual about it?”

Zhu Qianying rolled her eyes secretly. Probably, in this man’s concept, as long as it was his habit, it was normal!
