Chapter 974 - Chapter 974 : Stay Up Late Making Soup

At this moment, Alpha Guard 2 walked over and said, "For the sake of our past work together, giving her one reminder is enough. If she still hasn't given up, then it's her own fault."

"Hmm." Alpha Guard 1 nodded, not paying much attention to He Ruoyi's situation.

Giving her a warning once was already very generous. If she chose to ruin herself, there was nothing anyone could do to stop her.

*** 

Alpha Guard 1 and Alpha Guard 2 turned around and headed back, just in time to see Fu Yinxiu coming out of the office.

"Master." Both Alpha Guard 1 and Alpha Guard 2 called out in unison.

Fu Yinxiu pointed to his face, "Is there something wrong with my expression?"

Alpha Guard 1 and Alpha Guard 2: "..."

There was nothing wrong with his expression.

The two didn't speak, but their expressions conveyed their thoughts.

Fu Yinxiu was puzzled and muttered to himself, "Didn't Tong Tong say she didn't like me like this?"

Alpha Guard 1's throat moved slightly as he thought he might understand Ming Yutong's point.

Every time he faced Ming Yutong, he was extremely cautious and lowered himself so much, which didn't seem like him.

He hadn't expected that Ming Yutong felt the same way.

This meant that Miss Ming still cared about him.

If she didn't care, she wouldn't be bothered by seeing him in this state.

Only if she cared, would she hope he could remain himself.

Alpha Guard 1 couldn't help but feel pleased for Fu Yinxiu. Ming Yutong wasn't as indifferent and cold towards Fu Yinxiu as she appeared on the surface.

She might still love Fu Yinxiu in her heart.

Alpha Guard 1 thought about it and felt it was not appropriate to say too much. If the master was rejected again, it would be too painful.

Better to observe a bit longer and then speak.

The next morning, as Ming Yutong was about to enter the company, she heard a voice from the roadside behind her, "Tong Tong!"

It was Little Jingshi's soft and sweet voice.

Ming Yutong turned in surprise and saw a black Mercedes parked by the roadside.

Little Jingshi was sitting in the back seat, almost half of his body was sticking out from the black-tinted window.

Fortunately, Alpha Guard 4 was sitting next to him, holding his waist securely to prevent Little Jingshi from falling out of the window in his excitement.

Ming Yutong hurried over, and when she reached the car door, Little Jingshi waved at her, "Tong Tong, come in!"

Ming Yutong checked the time and saw that Little Jingshi could stay a bit longer and wouldn't be late. She got in the car.

"Why did you come over?" Ming Yutong happily pulled Little Jingshi onto her lap.

In front of Alpha Guard 3 and Alpha Guard 4, Little Jingshi felt shy, thinking that at his age, being held like this wasn't very appropriate.

However, Little Jingshi was simply too fond of his mother's embrace.

Little Jingshi had never been held by his mother since he was little. Thinking about it, he decided that for now, it was better to be held by his mother than to worry about appearances.

"Tong Tong, this is for you," Little Jingshi said as he took a thermos from Alpha Guard 4 and handed it to Ming Yutong.

Ming Yutong looked down at it and asked, "Did your dad make this?"

"Yes!" Little Jingshi nodded vigorously. "Dad was busy at the company all night the night before, so he didn't make it then. But last night when he came back home, he started working on it in the kitchen again."

Busy all night…

No wonder he looked so tired when she saw him yesterday. She thought it was because of her.

He had been busy all night the night before, and he must not have rested at all at the company yesterday.

Even when he finally had time at home, he stayed up again to make soup for her?

Ming Yutong held the thermos, feeling a mix of emotions.

Little Jingshi's eyes sparkled as he eagerly asked, "Tong Tong, you'll drink it, right?"

She wasn't sure if Little Jingshi knew about her pouring out the last batch of soup.

Ming Yutong had felt guilty about that and was even more troubled now.

She nodded earnestly, "Yes, I will."

Even though she didn't want to be involved with Fu Yinxiu again, she couldn't stop thinking about his disappointed and lonely look.

This soup he made with his own hands felt so heavy, and she couldn't refuse it.

Little Jingshi smiled widely, "Really? Then I'll tell Dad. He'll be very happy!"

Ming Yutong thought for a moment and said, "Tell him not to stay up late making soup in the future. He's already busy during the day, so he should rest well at night."

Little Jingshi's eyes lit up as he mischievously asked, "Tong Tong, are you feeling sorry for Dad?"

Ming Yutong was taken aback and hurriedly replied, "No, it's just that he doesn't need to do this."

Little Jingshi looked doubtful. Uncle Han had said that women often say one thing but mean another.

Even though Tong Tong said that, her gaze at the thermos just now seemed like she was touched by what Dad did!

Dad, keep going!

To support Dad and Tong Tong getting back together, Little Jingshi was willing to be the little messenger every day!

He couldn't stay too long, or he'd be late. So he said goodbye to Ming Yutong and left.

Ming Yutong took the thermos into the office. She unscrewed the lid, which also had a small spoon attached to it.

Removing the spill-proof seal from the lid, she poured the soup into it. The lid itself could be used as a small soup bowl.

The thick soup had a light milky color, with no visible oil on the surface.

It even had a faint herbal aroma, similar to the medicinal taste she was used to, but much milder and less bitter.
