BXBX NOVEL Chapter 748
She pushed the cutlery in front of him, brought his in front of her, and repeated her previous actions.
“Erm...” Other than his mother, this was the first time a woman had ‘served’ him. He felt a little awkward.
“What’s wrong?” Xu Jiamu turned her head to look at him doubtfully.
“Nothing.” Duan Linbai cleared his throat. “I heard you were fired? Are you looking for a part-time job?”
“I’m not looking anymore. I’ve been too busy with school recently to take on a part-time job.”
“Did those people look for you later?”
“No, thank you.” Xu Jiamu was really grateful to him on this matter.
Her seriousness made Duan Linbai feel a little awkward.
Because Duan Linbai was here, Xu Jiamu also asked for a small bottle of wine. Duan Linbai originally didn’t want to drink it, but she said it was only to toast him. A certain someone thought that his alcohol tolerance was good and that it was just a small glass, so he drank some.
...
He didn’t expect the wine to be so strong that he choked on it. But the taste was alright.
Because the weather was cold, the two of them ordered a small hotpot and drank some alcohol to complement it. Duan Linbai unknowingly drank too much.
Duan Linbai’s assistant received a call from Xu Jiamu and arrived at the small restaurant near the medical school. The sky was already completely dark. From afar, he saw his little boss and Xu Jiamu standing under a porch.
The autumn rain was drizzling. His little boss’s fingers were hooked around the young lady’s small hand, and his two rows of white teeth were smiling exceptionally dazzlingly in the night.
“Miss Xu.” The assistant ran over with an umbrella.
“He drank too much and kept pulling me and calling me Mom.” Xu Jiamu’s face darkened.
The assistant knew very well what kind of person his little boss was when he drank too much. He was so embarrassed that he almost crawled into a crack in the ground.
“Little Boss, let’s go home.” The assistant tried to separate their hands, but Duan Linbai’s fingers were hooked tightly. He couldn’t force him, so they were in a deadlock for a while.
“I’ll send him to the car.” One of Xu Jiamu’s hands was held by him, so she had trouble holding her umbrella. The assistant held the two umbrellas to help them block the rain.
When they reached the car, Duan Linbai still didn’t want to let go. He didn’t know what Xu Jiamu said in his ear, but he let go and sat quietly and obediently.
“Miss Xu, I’m sorry.” The assistant’s back was drenched under the autumn rain.
“It’s alright.” Xu Jiamu thought that he was quite cute. He didn’t put on airs and act aloof, so it didn’t make her feel that it was impossible to get close to him.
“I might be talking too much, but what did you say to him just now? Why was he willing to let go?” He thought that Xu Jiamu had a good plan. If he drank too much in the future, it would be easier for him to deal with it.
“I said to him, Mommy will go buy you candy.”
He couldn’t even remember when Xu Jiamu left. He was so frightened that he was dumbfounded.
If he dared to say to Duan Linbai, ‘Daddy will go buy you candy’, he would definitely die.
...
When Duan Linbai woke up, it was already past ten in the morning the next day. In his room, he rubbed his forehead and took off his clothes while walking to the bathroom.
Halfway through showering, he remembered what had happened yesterday.
He vaguely remembered some things, but his mind was full of Xu Jiamu’s words. “Be good and let go. Mommy will go buy you candy.”
“F*ck!” Duan Linbai cursed. “This damn woman took advantage of me.”
But he had drunk too much at the time, so he couldn’t blame her. It made Duan Linbai feel extremely aggrieved.
When he turned on his phone to check his messages, Xu Jiamu sent him a message: [Are you awake? I bought something for you. Can I send it to your house?]
Xu Jiamu had once delivered Duan Linbai medicine, so she naturally knew his address.
Duan Linbai was delighted. This woman knows the ways of the world very well. She even knows how to give gifts. Although he was looking forward to what she would give, he still tactfully declined twice.
The things she bought were from the same city, so they could be delivered on the same day. Then a certain someone used a hangover as an excuse to avoid going to work all day.
He only received a package in the evening. He opened it happily.
Two big cans of black wolfberries!
“Wolfberries? Oh, even Baibai knows how to nourish his health.” His father smiled. “Wolfberries are good for men.”
“Good for men?” Duan Linbai hadn’t studied this.
“It nourishes the kidneys and improves health. What do you think?”
Duan Linbai was dumbfounded. What does this woman mean?
She’s saying I can’t do it!
He was so angry, but he had nowhere to vent. Xu Jiamu even specially sent a message to ask if the item had arrived. Duan Linbai adhered to the gentlemanly principle and could only bite the bullet and say, [Got it. Thank you.]
