38: Thoughtful assistant

Binjiang Bay.

Feng Fangfang and the other two hadn't left; they were watching a movie with Jiang Yuwei.

However, Jiang Yuwei seemed a bit distracted, her gaze occasionally drifting towards the door, and her phone was constantly picked up and put down.

She actually wanted to text Xu Zimo but was afraid of disturbing him.

This was probably… the look of a young girl experiencing her first stirrings of love.

Suddenly, there was a sound of the door opening, and Jiang Yuwei quickly got up and rushed over.

"Brother!"

Seeing it was Xu Zimo, the young girl directly threw herself into his arms, her previously gloomy expression instantly brightening like a blooming flower.

Xu Zimo simply held her as he walked into the living room.

They were all there.

Feng Fangfang and Lin Zhuimiao were fine; they both smiled and greeted him, but Jiang Youqi was more shy, even daring not to look at him.

Even just calling him Brother Zimo, following Feng Fangfang and Lin Zhuimiao, would make her ears flush.

"Have you eaten yet?"

Xu Zimo didn't shy away; after sitting down, he still held Jiang Yuwei in his arms.

Lu Jiaqi was a mature Older Sister Type, while Jiang Yuwei was youthful and pure.

Each had her own beauty, each had her own charm.

Xu Zimo liked all beautiful things.

"We've eaten..."

They had bought ingredients themselves, and Jiang Youqi cooked them following a recipe.

"Brother, you don't even know, Qiqi is amazing! She's never cooked seafood before, but her first attempt was delicious."

Jiang Yuwei praised her roommate in his arms, and Feng Fangfang also exclaimed from the side, "The few of us probably won't be able to live without Qiqi in the future."

"Oh."

Xu Zimo's gaze naturally fell on Jiang Youqi.

Although she was wearing pajamas, it was clearly not the ill-fitting set from yesterday. It seemed she must have bought new ones when she went shopping today.

And it was a rather cute bunny pajama set.

The seemingly loose clothes, when worn by Jiang Youqi, were somehow stretched to reveal a cute 3D bunny pattern.

One could see the vastness of her 'bosom'.

Such a girl was truly a treasure.

After their praises, Xu Zimo couldn't help but want to taste the seafood Jiang Youqi made.

He wondered what it tasted like.

Unfortunately, there was none left, and Xu Zimo didn't want to trouble her, so he could only wait for next time. Thus, he said with a hint of regret, "What a pity, I don't have the good fortune."

"What's the big deal? We'll come again next weekend and have Qiqi cook for you, won't that be great?" Feng Fangfang assisted from the side.

"Then it's settled."

With the matter decided, Xu Zimo pulled Jiang Yuwei into the bedroom.

It was a good thing he had added a bit of physique; although the improvement was limited, his strength had recovered. Otherwise, he really wouldn't have been able to handle it.

Outside.

Lin Zhuimiao and Jiang Youqi slept in one room, and Feng Fangfang ended her live stream after two hours.

It was another day without the big boss.

The next day when Xu Zimo woke up, Jiang Yuwei and the other three had already returned to school.

Walking into the living room, looking at the empty room, he actually felt a little unaccustomed.

Lying on the sofa, he took out his phone and saw a message from Jiang Yuwei: "Brother, breakfast is ready for you. It's in the microwave; just heat it up and eat."

Looking at the visually appealing and fragrant breakfast before him, Xu Zimo felt a surge of emotion.

Before the divorce, not only did he have to get up early for work, but he also had to prepare breakfast for the lazy Wang Pingping. And for this… what did he get in return?

He couldn't help but recall a saying.

When falling in love, always choose someone young. Youth is not only in its prime but also yearns for love.

On the contrary, some older people, even though they are already starting to show signs of aging, will propose all sorts of conditions, with only material things in their eyes.

This is also why there are more and more older single women.

Because there are very few people who can meet their conditions who would seek someone in their age group.

What virtuous and gentle, what good wife and loving mother – if they truly possessed these qualities, they wouldn't have become older single women.

Xu Zimo ate breakfast, continuing to look at his messages.

Feng Fangfang: "Brother Feng, I'm back at school. When are you free? I'd like to treat you to a meal."

Xu Zimo had a good impression of her.

Beautiful and sensible.

He liked girls like that.

As for the time… Feng Fangfang would definitely be with Jiang Yuwei on the weekend, so it could only be Monday to Friday.

But today he had to take Lu Jiaqi and her parents to handle the paperwork, so it would have to be postponed for now. "When I have time, I'll text you."

Normal University.

In class, Feng Fangfang took out her phone and saw this message. She was slightly disappointed but also full of anticipation. "Okay, I'll wait for Brother Feng's message."

Since Xu Zimo agreed, it proved that… she still had a chance.

After breakfast, Lu Jiaqi was already waiting.

She didn't want to cause Xu Zimo any trouble, so she supervised the new house until she saw Xu Zimo's message, then she came downstairs.

As Xu Zimo stepped out of the elevator, he saw Lu Jiaqi still dressed in formal wear.

Looking at her now, Xu Zimo's mind inexplicably flashed back to the torn black stockings from yesterday.

He had to admit.

Black stockings, the torn ones looked the best.

There were cameras in the garage, so the two didn't engage in overly intimate gestures, but Xu Zimo still asked caringly, "Why didn't you rest a bit longer at home? I could have picked you up, it's no trouble."

"I've recovered."

Thinking of what happened yesterday, a blush appeared on Lu Jiaqi's face, but unlike Jiang Yuwei, she didn't shyly lower her head. Instead, she looked at Xu Zimo with her limpid, shimmering eyes.

She was truly stunned by Xu Zimo yesterday.

Five million, he just transferred it to her.

That kind of trust, or rather… his affirmation of her, deeply moved Lu Jiaqi.

"It's good that you've recovered."

As they spoke, the two got into the car, and Xu Zimo then asked, "Have you ordered the car?"

"Yes, I ordered a porsche Panamera. After customization, it's 1.36 million. There's 3.64 million left, I..."

Since it was a car she liked, Xu Zimo, of course, wouldn't interfere, but he also interrupted her at the right time. "The rest, you can keep for your own use. See what else you need around you and go buy it."

"This..."

Lu Jiaqi thought for a moment. She indeed needed to buy some things for her room. Although it wouldn't cost that much, it was still more than she could afford. So, she softly thanked him, "Thank you… CEO Xu."

Her current attire, coupled with that tender address, made Xu Zimo feel a little restless.

As if sensing his gaze, Lu Jiaqi smiled slightly, with a hint of charm, and gently took his hand, placing it on her lap.

What a thoughtful and understanding assistant!

Someone who could handle everything assigned and was capable—who wouldn't like that?

Next, they went to pick up his parents.

From his parents, Xu Zimo learned that Wang Pingping and Former Mother-in-law had indeed gone to the old house to cause a ruckus, and Wang Qiang was also there. Xu Zimo's expression immediately turned somewhat unpleasant.

Since they didn't want to be decent, then he didn't need to be so considerate.
