"Of course."
Just those few words, no unnecessary talk.
Meanwhile, Mu Yinyin was getting further and further away from the company.
Half an hour later, she finally arrived at her destination.
She made her way to the villa complex, entered, and pressed the doorbell from outside.
Soon, someone came to open the door from inside.
As soon as Mu Yinyin entered, she heard Gu Xiaoqi's extremely excited voice, "Aowu! My dearest Yinyin, you're finally here."
Mu Yinyin's lips curved into a slight smile as she walked to the dining table and looked at the feast laid out. She couldn't help but say with a touch of speechlessness, "You've only just been discharged from the hospital, and you're already eating such rich food? You're not even better yet."
"Wuwuwu... I know, but I just couldn't resist. Besides, didn't you tell me to replenish my nutrition appropriately? Look at the food on the table, it's all high-protein stuff."
Mu Yinyin's mouth twitched, and she fell silent.
Li Chuan, who was standing by, stepped forward and asked with some confusion, "This food, it's not okay?"
His voice was serious, and he looked very nervous.
Mu Yinyin raised an eyebrow. "One meal occasionally is fine, but it can't be like this all the time. After discharge, you still can't indulge her picky eating habits; it must be balanced."
Gu Xiaoqi's little face instantly drooped. "Wuwuwu... Alright, alright, I won't be picky."
Mu Yinyin said with some helplessness, "Think about how you endured the suffering in the hospital, how did you guarantee that?"
"I know, I know..." Gu Xiaoqi's voice was much weaker than before. There were some things she really disliked eating, and being forced to eat during this period made her very uncomfortable.
But...
She still had to endure it for her health, to avoid being hospitalized again.
Now, she could also feel that her body was very weak and she had no strength at all. She was also afraid of a relapse and returning to the hospital.
Li Chuan's eyes moved, and he said, "Let's eat first."
Jiang Ling had to go on another business trip, so it was just the three of them for lunch today.
Mu Yinyin came over to check on Gu Xiaoqi and her physical condition; there was nothing else.
The meal was quite pleasant because there was nothing Gu Xiaoqi disliked. All her previous discomfort vanished. During this meal, she ate the most heartily and chatted the most happily.
They had many topics to discuss. Gu Xiaoqi could always find all sorts of topics. She was a very talkative person, so the collaborations she went out for were usually successful. One reason was that the collaboration plans were indeed excellent, and the other was her way with words. She could always maximize her company's interests and make the other party sign the contract with genuine conviction.
The meal was almost finished, and Gu Xiaoqi said contentedly, "This meal was so comfortable!!!"
She rubbed her round little belly and couldn't help but say, "Aowu, my happy days... I must cherish them!"
Mu Yinyin couldn't help but chuckle as she looked at her. "Alright, it's not like you can't eat anymore. In the future, eat a little of what you like and a little of what you don't, and it won't make you feel too uncomfortable."
"Wuwuwu... Eating things I don't like is naturally uncomfortable. Even if there's my favorite food next to it, just thinking about those unpalatable things makes me uncomfortable...!" Gu Xiaoqi's voice was full of grievance, especially when she said the last sentence, making it seem like she was about to cry.
Li Chuan said helplessly, "If you're still so picky, you'll have to go back to the hospital."
"Aiya... I know, I'm just complaining..." Gu Xiaoqi pouted, looking like she didn't want to talk anymore. But the next moment, she looked at Mu Yinyin again, her eyes filled with intense gossip. "Yinyin, I see you've been getting quite close to Fu Si Ye again recently. Are you two going to spark anything again..."
Mu Yinyin raised an eyebrow. "No."
"Hmm?" Gu Xiaoqi scrutinized her. "Fu Si Ye, knowing all his identities now, should he be regretting his past actions? His attitude towards you is quite different from before."
Mu Yinyin just pulled at her lips and said very casually, "There will always be some interaction in cooperation, and contact will naturally increase. As for other things, there are no such matters. What are you thinking about all day with that little brain of yours?"
When she said the latter sentence, she looked at Gu Xiaoqi with some helplessness.
Gu Xiaoqi pursed her lips. "What about Lu Sinian? Everyone can see the way Lu Sinian is pursuing you. I feel like in a while, he might do something sensational to let the whole world know."
Mu Yinyin held her forehead. "I have no plans to remarry, nor do I plan to date. You, just focus on taking care of your health and stop thinking about these trivial matters all day."
Li Chuan's lips curved slightly, and he said nothing.
Gu Xiaoqi pouted in grievance. "Sigh, you can't not find someone! You're still young, you just went through a failed marriage before, but you can't dismiss all men with one stroke. There are good men in this world, you know? Look, isn't there one right beside me? Hehe..."
Mu Yinyin's face immediately darkened a bit. "What? Showing off in front of me?"
Li Chuan's curved lips deepened, and he remained silent.
Gu Xiaoqi chuckled. "No, I just want to tell you that good men exist! You just met a scumbag before, but you'll definitely meet someone who will cherish you as the apple of his eye in the future!"
The apple of his eye.
Mu Yinyin's eyelashes trembled. The apple of his eye?
Tsk.
She didn't deny what Gu Xiaoqi said, but that didn't mean she would meet such a good man. If she truly could, she would have met him in her first relationship, and she wouldn't have ended up with countless scars after giving three years of her genuine affection.
Mu Yinyin just pulled at her lips. "Okay, then we'll meet them slowly in the future. Your most important task right now is to recover your health, otherwise I'll have to send you back to the hospital. No picky eating."
"Wuwuwu... Alright." Gu Xiaoqi said those few words with a wronged look.
After eating, Mu Yinyin didn't stay any longer. She had to go back to the company in the afternoon. Li Chuan had been staying by Gu Xiaoqi's side these past few days.
Gu Xiaoqi didn't know what illness she had, but that didn't mean others would be careless. Her body currently required someone to watch over her, so Li Chuan had been by her side.
Gu Xiaoqi was deeply touched, clearly feeling loved. She even felt fortunate in her heart to have met such a perfect man who treated her so well. She... how fortunate she was!
How fortunate.
Throughout the afternoon.
After returning, Mu Yinyin was busy handling matters at the company, as if she had cast aside all distractions.
All urgent tasks had been completed, and now things could proceed in an orderly fashion.
With half an hour left until work ended, her phone suddenly rang. Seeing the caller ID, her gaze paused slightly.
