老攻身患绝症[穿书] (Eng)

21. Mu Zhouyi

There was a plot in the original novel where the male lead was sick and the female lead came to take care of him. This was an important turning point in the emotional development of the two people. The time when the plot occurred was after the female lead finished filming with the movie emperor. It clearly wasn't that time yet but a few days ago, the female lead appeared outside the TV station building in C City when she should be filming with the movie emperor. This proved that the plot was somewhat different from the original novel...

"What are you thinking about?"

Xie Yang's mind returned and he glanced at Qiu Xing. "I'm wondering if you can stop cutting the power off at 10 o'clock every night."

Qiu Xing's eyes contained a warning. "Do you want to stay up late again?"

"......"

Xie Yang told him, "I'm an adult and I have self-control. Staying up late previously was an accident."

"An accident that happens twice in a row will become a bad habit."

It seemed there was no rebuttal. Xie Yang shut up.

30 minutes later, the two of them arrived at Feng Qinglin's residence. The housekeeper aunt came to open the door. Qiu Xing entered with Xie Yang and asked, "What about Qinglin?"

The housekeeper replied with a smile, "He is lying upstairs. His fever is gone and Miss Mu is taking care of him. This time, it is really thanks to Miss Mu. Qinglin had a high fever the day before yesterday but I happened to ask for leave to go home. Miss Mu happened to be unable to make contact with Qinglin. She lives in the community and came to check the situation. If it wasn't for this, I'm afraid that no one would've found that Qinglin has a fever. Miss Mu also cooked congee for Qinglin this morning. She is so considerate!"

Xie Yang, "..."

Very good. Previously, he wondered if the male lead's illness had been caused by the plot of the original book advancing ahead of time. He hadn't expected it to really be the case. He looked at Qiu Xing. Was it time for Qiu Xing to meet that woman today?

Qiu Xing asked the housekeeper, "Who is Miss Mu?"

The housekeeper replied excitedly, "Miss Mu is Mu Zhouyi. She is a beautiful, big star. Qinglin previously met her in the car accident in S City. She is very good! After Qinglin came to B City, he often met her in the community. She also gave Qinglin soup that she cooked herself!"

Xie Yang looked at the red-faced housekeeper and suspected that her goodwill had been increased by the female lead's skill. Otherwise, how could a housekeeper with a normal IQ boast about an unknown person who kept visiting her sick employer?

Qiu Xing apparently noticed the housekeeper's weirdness as well and frowned at her. He didn't let her continue as he walked toward the master bedroom on the second floor. Xie Yang kept up with him.

Before reaching the master bedroom, Feng Qinglin and Mu Zhouyi's voices were heard. Feng Qinglin seemed to want to get up only to be stopped by Mu Zhouyi. Mu Zhouyi also said that she would buy vegetables to make lunch for Feng Qinglin.

Qiu Xing suddenly stopped walking and turned around to go downstairs. He walked toward the housekeeper who was chasing behind him. "Go tell Qinglin that I came."

Xie Yang glanced at the door of the master bedroom and once again followed Qiu Xing.

The two people sat in the living room. Xie Yang leaned over and poured a glass of water for Qiu Xing. "What are you angry about now?"

Qiu Xing tried to endure it but eventually couldn't hold back. He replied in a cold voice, "His career hasn't improved at all and his body collapsed first. Forget managing his health, he can't even manage the housekeeper well. It is just a high fever. Who let him lie in bed and enjoy the care of a woman who came from who knows where. The education of the Feng family is really good!"
