Chapter 30 – Wutong (2)

Zhou Shiyun, “…”

“Second Young Master!” A woman wearing a cheongsam hurriedly ran around the corner of the corridor. She appeared well maintained, at about forty years old. She came forward and looked at Su Jinbei holding Wutong in surprise, “This …”

Zhou Shiyun nodded at her, “Zhai yi.”

“Greetings, Second Young Master.” Aunt Zhai quickly bent over and bowed respectfully, and then said, “Wutong suddenly ran out and I came out to look for it. I didn’t expect to see it here. Second Young Master, Wutong probably knew that you came back so it came here, although…”

Aunt Zhai said, “Are you Miss Su?”

Su Jinbei nodded.

“What a miracle, Wutong is even willing for you to hug it.” Aunt Zhai smiled.

Su Jinbei, “Really…” How arrogant was this big fat cat that someone hugging it was actually a miracle!

“It’s so late, I won’t disturb the young master and the young lady’s rest, I will take Wutong back first.”

“Okay, sorry to trouble Zhai yi.”

“No trouble, no trouble.” Aunt Zhai took Wutong from Su Jinbei and retreated.

Su Jinbei reluctantly looked at the scene of Wutong leaving, “What did your family feed Wutong, it’s so fat.”

Zhou Shiyun’s eyes held some laughter as he listened, “It doesn’t like to move, and also likes to eat. It makes sense that it’s fat.”

“That’s bad for its health, aren’t you worried?”

Zhou Shiyun, “Wutong was Mother’s favorite before she passed away. It does whatever it likes, it’s been spoiled. When I’m not at home, no one really looks after it.”

Su Jinbei turned back to meet his slightly smiling eyes. She paused, raised her hand to her chin and smirked. “Zhou Shiyun, you look really good when you smile. Oh no, I like you even more.”

Zhou Shiyun glanced at her. The latter’s peach blossom eyes narrowed slightly, he looked like a full-fledged “playboy”.

“It’s late, let’s go back and rest.” Zhou Shiyun said and turned to go back to his room. Unexpectedly, Su Jinbei was sharp-eyed and deft-handed, she quickly put her hand on the wall and blocked him.

Zhou Shiyun had to stop, “What.”

Su Jinbei shrugged, her usual charm was mixed with great mischief, “Fiance, I can’t sleep alone, how ‘bout I go to your room and we can sleep together?”

Zhou Shiyun paused, “You can only fall asleep with another person beside you?”

Su Jinbei, “maybe.”

“En.” Zhou Shiyun took her hand away, “but I can’t.”

Done speaking, he walked back to the room calmly and shut the door tightly.

Su Jinbei, “… Hmph, he really thinks I’m such an open person! You wish!”

Inside the room, Zhou Shiyun heard the sound of Su Jinbei throwing a fit from outside the door. He hooked his lips and locked the door. No one witnessed the slight blush behind his ears.

Su Jinbei had always been a late riser. Add to that the fact that she went to bed late last night, the next day she was dead to the world. However, someone knocked on her room door at 7:30 in the morning.

Feeling irritated, Su Jinbei turned around irritably and shouted, “Don’t be noisy, be quiet!”

The middle-aged woman outside the door paused and looked back at Zhou Shiyun standing behind her.

Then, she continued knocking on the door loudly, “Miss Su, you should get up.”

“Lin ma1 [javascript:void(0)]Ma could mean mother or a married woman a generation above you. In this context, it’s also used to address a housekeeper., I’m not having breakfast, don’t wake me up anymore…” A husky voice laced with sleep came from the room. Zhou Shiyun’s eyes flashed with laughter, he touched the middle-aged woman, “Forget it, let her sleep.” If he remembered correctly, the Lin ma that Su Jinbei was talking about was a housekeeper in the Su Residence. She must have turned dumb in her sleep.

The middle-aged woman is embarrassed, “Second Young Master, it is the custom to go to Yi Shi Tang (a hall) for breakfast at half-past seven. If Miss Su does not go, the Old Madame might get mad.”

Zhou Shiyun pondered, “Then you go down first, I’ll wake her up.”

“This…”

“I’ll be on time.”

The middle-aged woman finally bowed slightly, “Yes, Young Master.”

Eating breakfast together was the norm in the Zhou family. As long as there are juniors at home, if there are no urgent issues, everyone must gather at Yi Shi Tang punctually not only to eat breakfast but to pay respects to the Old Madame.

After the middle-aged woman left, Zhou Shiyun stood outside the door, and then took out his mobile phone to make a call to Su Jinbei. The phone rang for a long time. Zhou Shiyun vaguely heard the phone ringing through the door. He could imagine a certain someone breaking down.

“Hello, who is it!” Su Jinbei finally answered the phone, but from her voice, one could tell she was extremely dissatisfied.

Zhou Shiyun, “Get up.”

“What?”

“Grandma is waiting for you to have breakfast, get up quickly.” After Zhou Shiyun said this, the phone was silent. After a while, he heard clattering sounds coming from inside the room…

Ten minutes later, the door of the room opened.

After Su Jinbei finished washing and put on a cheongsam, she stood in front of him not quite fully awake, “Ugh, why do you all get up so early.”

“It’s not early, it’s almost half-past seven.”

Su Jinbei glared. When she had work, she would occasionally wake up early. But when she wasn’t working, her beauty sleep went on until 10 to 11. How is 7:30 not early?!

“Come out.” Zhou Shiyun said softly.

Su Jinbei had no choice. She yawned and said lazily, “Zhou Shiyun, I haven’t put on makeup.”

“It’s too late, no need.”

“That’s no good, it’s ugly.”

“It’s perfect.” Zhou Shiyun didn’t want her to continue dilly-dallying and grabbed her wrist, directly dragging her out the door.

Su Jinbei was shocked at first, then smiled, “Yo, you took my hand.”

Zhou Shiyun paused, looking at Su Jinbei’s playful self, and let go resolutely.
