The two of them sat in the car’s back seats because Ye Kun was worried Fang Xi would feel ill.
Fang Xi giggled, “I won’t throw up in your car.”
“It’s fine even if you do throw up. I can just get the car washed,” Ye Kun replied.
Fang Xi was shocked. There was once when she caught a bad cold. That was the only time he had accompanied her to the doctor. To be precise, he’d dropped her off at the hospital on his way. She’d thrown up in the car because she wasn’t feeling well. At the time, his expression had immediately darkened, and Fang Xi had felt guilty over the matter for a long time.

“Do you still feel uncomfortable? How about we go to the hospital and see a doctor to prescribe some medicine?” Ye Kun asked with concern.
Fang Xi turned to look at him and inquired, “Have you ever been drunk?”
Ye Kun nodded and answered, “Of course.” He’d gotten drunk countless times. He’d started drinking when he was very young, thanks to the bad influence of his three best friends.
Fang Xi laughed and teased, “Who would go to the hospital just because they’re drunk? Would you?”
Ye Kun was embarrassed and stated, “You girls are more delicate, unlike us men. My mother said that we’re all as stout as mules.”
“Your mother prefers girls?” Fang Xi questioned as she leaned her head against the seat. ‘Luxury cars sure are comfortable,’ she mentally sighed.
“Yes, because she doesn’t have a daughter,” Ye Kun replied.
“That’s nice,” Fang Xi commented with a smile and gently closed her eyes. ‘You should sleep for a while,” Ye Kun suggested straightaway. “I’ll wake you up when we get home!”
Fang Xi placed her fist on her forehead and lightly knocked on it again and again before sighing softly.
“Were you out on business tonight?” Ye Kun asked curiously. “What do you need from those people?”
Fang Xi didn’t open her eyes as she chuckled, “Of course, I’m out on business. I’m just a common citizen; I have to make a living, you know! Our new movie’s screenings were canceled and replaced for some reason. Those people didn’t give us the screenings they promised us, so I had to treat them to a meal and come to a new agreement with them. They’re all sly old foxes and very difficult to deal with.” Ye Kun nodded and mentally noted that down.
Right now, Fang Xi’s mind was filled with that man’s eyes and soft calls. He rarely called her name because he didn’t need to. She would appear before him at a single glance, and sometimes, not even a glance was necessary because she could always predict his needs. But, so what? No matter how much she had done for him, it was nothing compared to his fiancée’s call.
Tears slowly fell from the corners of Fang Xi’s eyes. When she realized it, her face was already covered in tears. Ye Kun handed her another tissue. Fang Xi thanked him, accepted the tissue, and wiped her tears.
Ye Kun earnestly advised, “You should quit if you aren’t happy with your job. You can work at another company. There’s no need to compromise yourself for work.”
This kind of concern made Fang Xi’s heart feel like it had been scalded—it wasn’t just warm, it was scalding. Fang Xi couldn’t bear to see such an innocent person worry about her. She sniffled and said, “It’s not about work. It’s nothing; I just saw my ex-boyfriend. It brought up some memories.”

Judging from that, they must have broken up for a long time, and she’d recovered from the heartbreak. The thought made him happy, and he remarked, “That’s even simpler. He’s not worth your sadness! You don’t need someone with such poor taste; just throw him away.” After saying that, he
Fang Xi couldn’t help but laugh along with him, but her tears also flowed uncontrollably. “You’re right, it’s not worth it! That man with such poor taste isn’t worth it!” She tearfully repeated this sentence as if she was comforting the heart-wrenching pain in her chest.
When they arrived home, the effects of the alcohol Fang Xi consumed kicked in, and she had a terrible headache. Ye Kun was worried; after he’d helped her into the house, Fang Xi had curled up on the sofa, feeling extremely uncomfortable. Ye Kun made some hangover soup in Fang Xi’s kitchen and woke her up so she could drink it.
Fang Xi looked at Ye Kun, amazed, and asked, “You even know how to make hangover soup?”
Ye Kun held the cup of hangover soup closer to her and urged, “Drink it while it’s warm. It’ll induce sweat and make you feel better.”
Fang Xi took the cup and carefully drank the warm liquid. This was the first time she drank hangover soup someone else made for her. In the past, she had always been the one to make the soup for others. The soup’s sourness was just right, and the sweetness was perfect. ‘Hangover soup never tasted this good before. Is the soup only so delicious when you’re drunk? she wondered.
Ye Kun turned around and left, and Fang Xi dazedly held the cup in her hands. She felt that everything that just happened with her and Ye Kun was unreal.
“Woof woof!” A chubby Tuan Tuan suddenly raced towards her, jumped onto the sofa, and burrowed into her arms.
“Tuan Tuan!” Fang Xi called out and hugged Tuan Tuan in delight. She had been too busy recently and hadn’t played with Tuan Tuan for two months.
Then, she wondered, ‘ Ye Kun traveled all the time, so how did he take care of Tuan Tuan for the past two months?!
Tuan Tuan licked all over Fang Xi’s hands and face. Fang Xi laughed and pushed the canine away, and they happily played together..
