Qin Chaoyan looked at Young Master Ye, lying on his bed, his eyes slightly moving.
After standing for a while, he turned to the kitchen in the corridor, pulled the glass door between the kitchen and the bedroom, and started to wash and cook rice.
Chen Jiang looked around and saw that the young master didn’t need him, so he went to help.
Qin Chaoyan’s house didn’t have many rich ingredients, so the food he made was simple, white rice with salted beans and fried eggs.
Because Young Master Ye was in poor health and was particular about food, he specially fried a dish of light seasonal vegetables and a light vegetable soup.
For meals, he and Chen Jiang mainly ate rice with scrambled eggs on salt beans, and seasonal vegetables and soups were for the young master.
Chen Jiang’s hometown happened to have the custom of pickling salted beans, so this taste of hometown is great. He was used to eating fine food at the Ye family villa, but suddenly coming across hometown cuisine, he couldn’t help but miss it. He praised Qin Chaoyan’s authentic salted beans, and the fried eggs also have a hometown flavor.
Ye Rongxu usually eats medicinal food at home and is used to light tasting food. At this time, the light dishes that Qin Chaoyan cooked for him were just perfect.
But while eating, seeing Qin Chaoyan and Chen Jiang eating salted beans and fried eggs very deliciously, he paused with his chopsticks and suddenly felt that the food he was eating was tasteless.
He took a small bite of rice, chewed it slowly, stole a glance, took another bite of rice, chewed it slowly, stole a glance…
Qin Chaoyan and Chen Jiang ate very quickly. They finished in a short while and went to wash the dishes first.
Ye Rongxu glanced at the half plate of salted bean scrambled eggs, thinking, Is it really that delicious?
The young master of the rich family had never seen this dish.
He glanced at the kitchen and saw that Chen Jiang and Qin Chaoyan were not paying attention to this side, so he quickly picked up a chopstick and imitated the way they had just eaten—mixed rice.
Then he picked up the mixed rice and chewed it slowly. Swallowing, tasting: salty, a little spicy, and a little strange. Not bad, but… not that delicious, right?
Then he glanced at the kitchen, secretly picked up another chopstick, and continued to mix the rice:… Actually, it’s quite good with rice, but the taste is really ordinary. He doesn’t know why those two people eat so happily.
Then he picked up another chopstick…
Qin Chaoyan and Chen Jiang came back after washing the dishes and saw that the small half plate of salted bean scrambled eggs on the table was almost empty.
The two were silent for a few seconds, and looked at Ye Rongxu at the same time.
Ye Rongxu felt guilty: “I just… ate a little bit to taste it.”
The flavor was really mediocre, and he didn’t crave it. It’s only because it was quite good with rice.
Qin Chaoyan, Chen Jiang: “…” Do you think we are blind?
Qin Chaoyan turned his head to look at Chen Jiang and asked: “Is it okay for him to eat so much?”
Chen Jiang hesitated: “It should be… okay? This dish is not very spicy, just a little salty. ”
The young master can’t eat anything randomly, especially fried, spicy, irritating, or cold, allergenic food.
This dish is just a little salty and spicy; it should be okay, right?
Chen Jiang thought with uncertainty.
Ye Rongxu also nodded “hmm,” emphasizing: “After eating, I drank wolfberry tea.”
He is keeping healthy.
Qin Chaoyan: “…” Wolfberry tea is not a panacea. It can’t cure all diseases.
Facts have proven that his worries are right. Less than ten minutes after Young Master Ye finished eating, he lay on the bed with his hands on his stomach, groaning and saying that his stomach hurt.
Chen Jiang’s face changed slightly, and he asked hurriedly, “Do you want to go to the hospital?”
Ye Rongxu shook his head weakly, saying: “It’s not that serious. I remember there are medicines in the car.”
“I’ll go get it now.” Chen Jiang hurried downstairs when he heard this.
“Yeah.” After Ye Rongxu fell ill, he looked a little pitiful.
His nose tip was slightly red, and his eyes were wet. After watching Chen Jiang leave in a hurry, he covered his stomach and began to groan.
Qin Chaoyan, who was standing by the bed, saw that he was getting more and more uncomfortable. He suddenly walked forward, pressed his thin upper body, and whispered, “Don’t move.”
Ye Rongxu froze, blinking his watery eyes, and before he could react, he suddenly felt a large hand gently pressing on his stomach, rubbing it through the thin clothes.
Ye Rongxu suddenly stopped talking, and his voice was stuck in his throat. He turned to the side with a red face, and his eyes were erratic.
Qin Chaoyan massaged and asked in a low voice, “How does it feel? Is this okay?”
Even through the clothes, he seemed to be able to feel the young master’s smoothness as brocade…
He quickly lowered his eyelids to cover his emotions.
Ye Rongxu was still holding back, not letting out any sound.
Qin Chaoyan didn’t know if his massage would be of any help, so he paused and asked again: “Uncomfortable?”
Ye Rongxu finally couldn’t hold it back, and a tiny sound came out of his throat, choking like a kitten: “No, go slower… Don’t press too hard, just, just like this… Uh.” He was about to vomit.
Qin Chaoyan’s massage movement froze, and the skin behind his ears turned red.
Outside the door, Chen Jiang, who hurried back with stomach medicine, also froze, and his raised foot was neither forward nor backward.
Qin Chaoyan froze for two seconds and continued to massage Ye Rongxu, while the latter continued to hum.
Qin Chaoyan’s ear was getting redder and redder, and there was even a tendency to spread. After massaging for a while, he finally couldn’t help it and whispered, “Don’t make a sound.”
Ye Rongxu: “?” What’s wrong with that?
Chen Jiang finally knocked on the door and walked in with big strides, breaking the weird atmosphere.
When Ye Rongxu saw him coming back, he immediately looked like he saw a savior, raised his upper body, and asked eagerly, “Uncle, do you bring any digestive tablets?”
He suspected that he might have eaten too much.
“Yes, yes, yes.” Chen Jiang was busy looking for medicine.
Qin Chaoyan also withdrew his hand and stood up, and there seemed to be residual warmth in his empty palm. He lowered his eyelids and flexed his fingers. After a while, he said in a flat tone, “I’ll go get some water.”
His voice seemed a little dry.
Ye Rongxu didn’t pay attention as he was helped up, and after taking the medicine, he gradually became less uncomfortable and started to get sleepy again.
Qin Chaoyan and Chen Jiang cleaned up the dining table together. When they came back, they saw him lying on the bed, already sleeping soundly.
The young master’s body was thin and sunk between the bedding, only rumbling in a shallow arc. His pale face had a thin red of sickness, and even when he was asleep, his eyebrows were still amazingly beautiful.
After Chen Jiang put the bowl away and came back, he was also stunned to see Ye Rongxu asleep and then wanted to go forward to help him tuck in.
“Let me do it,” Qin Chaoyan suddenly said.
He raised his hand to stop Chen Jiang, then took two steps forward, bent down, and gently pulled the quilt to Ye Rongxu’s neck and tucked it in.
After doing this, his eyes fell on the white and delicate face of the boy on the bed, where no pores could be seen. He looked at him for a moment and then slowly moved away.

Ye Rongxu didn’t sleep for long and woke up half an hour later.
He supported his upper body and sat up, yawning. His eyes were misty, as if he had not woken up completely.
Qin Chaoyan was carving a wood block, and Chen Jiang was watching.
Seeing him wake up, Qin Chaoyan reacted first, put down the wood and carving knife, stood up, and brought him a cup of warm water.
Chen Jiang also hurried over and asked him if he needed to turn over or stand up.
“Or shall we go home now?” Chen Jiang asked.
After drinking a few sips of water, Ye Rongxu shook his head slightly.
There’s no need to stand up again after lying down. If he wants to turn over, he can do it by himself. As for going home…
Ye Boxuan worked overtime all night and must be resting now. There is nothing to do when he goes home.
Ye Rongxu decided to stay with Qin Chaoyan for a long time and watch him carve wood.
It was not until three or four o’clock in the afternoon that Young Master Ye left happily.
When he got home, Ye Boxuan had indeed rested well and was sitting in the living room reading the documents he brought home in the morning.
Seeing Ye Rongxu coming back, he put down the documents, raised his eyebrows slightly, and asked, “When did Jiangcheng No. 1 High School move to the neighboring province? Does it take that long to send Qin Chaoyan to school?”
Ye Rongxu said “uh,” feeling a little guilty.
But when he heard his father mention No. 1 High School, he quickly remembered another matter and said hurriedly, “Qin Chaoyan didn’t go to school today. He was suspended from school temporarily.”
“Oh, what’s going on?” Ye Boxuan picked up the coffee on the table, took a sip, and asked casually.
Ye Rongxu’s eyes turned. He immediately controlled the wheelchair to the front of Ye Boxuan, raised his little face, and said, “Dad, Qin Jingxu targeted Qin Chaoyan and transferred his household registration and school registration, so that he couldn’t register for the college entrance examination. Qin Chaoyan was so angry that he beat him, and he complained to the school, making Qin Chaoyan unable to go to school.”
Ye Boxuan put down the coffee, looked at him calmly, and said, “Then you told me all this; do you want to…”
Ye Rongxu controlled the wheelchair to move forward a little and asked expectantly: “Dad, is there a way to quickly transfer Qin Chaoyan’s household registration and school registration back so that he can register again?”
Ye Boxuan: “It’s definitely not difficult to transfer it back, but it takes time. In addition, if it’s for the college entrance examination… He himself didn’t know about the transfer?”
Ye Rongxu looked distressed: “It seems that Qin Jingxu used some means. I don’t know too much.”
“Did Qin Chaoyan take the initiative to tell you?” Ye Boxuan asked suddenly.
“Ah?” Ye Rongxu thought for a moment and said, “I asked him.”
Ye Boxuan sighed. His silly son wouldn’t even know if he was taken advantage of.
However, Qin Chaoyan shouldn’t have used his son in this matter. After all, it’s not a big deal. If he really wants to seek help, just tell him directly, and he won’t refuse to help.
But Qin Jingxu and Qin Chaoyan… Alas, his son might have been involved in their dispute without knowing it.
Ye Boxuan pinched his eyebrows. In the end, he was partial to his son. Being partial to his son naturally means being partial to the person his son likes.
Just like he had been nice to Qin Jingxu before, he slowly said, “If Qin Chaoyan himself doesn’t know that his household registration and school registration have been transferred, he can apply for cancellation. I’ll ask someone to help inquire about this matter.”
Ye Rongxu was surprised to hear this and couldn’t help hugging him, saying, “Thank you, Dad.”
Ye Boxuan felt relieved, but when he thought that his son was thanking him on behalf of Qin Chaoyan, the old father’s heart couldn’t help but feel sour, and he sighed again: Your son is no longer yours when he grows up.
“Okay.” He patted Ye Rongxu’s back and asked him to sit properly.
Then he continued, “I told your grandparents about you and Qin Chaoyan. They want to meet Qin Chaoyan first. Tell Qin Chaoyan that Chen Jiang will pick him up early tomorrow morning, and then you will go to the hot spring villa together. At that time, your grandmother Qin will also be there, and if you can talk it over, this will be finalized, and then an engagement banquet will be held for you.”
“Really?” Ye Rongxu’s eyes lit up.
Ye Boxuan looked at him.
Ye Rongxu sat down obediently and put his hands on his knees.
Ye Boxuan: “…” Alas.
He felt sad about marrying off his child, but the heartless boy in front of him didn’t notice it at all and was full of expectation.
The old father carefully reminded him, “You have to think about it first. After the formal engagement, it will be difficult to back out again.”
Ye Rongxu: It’s difficult to back out… means I can still back out.
Then he nodded vigorously and said obediently: “Yeah.”
Ye Boxuan: “…”
He sighed again, picked up the coffee, and sipped it.
It’s so bitter. In my last life, I committed sins, and in this life, I’m raising a child.

When Qin Chaoyan received Ye Rongxu’s call, it was almost dark.
He was coloring the wood carving he had just carved. When he heard Ye Rongxu’s voice, his hands paused slightly.
On the phone, Ye Rongxu’s voice was a little too happy, and he reminded him: “Uncle Chen and I will pick you up early tomorrow morning. You should get up early. By the way, you should dress formally…”
Qin Chaoyan lowered his eyes, listened for a while, and the corners of his lips curved slightly.
“Qin Chaoyan, are you listening?” Ye Rongxu asked doubtfully when he noticed that he had not spoken.
“Yes, I’m listening.” Qin Chaoyan replied softly, “I have noted it down.”
On the other end of the phone, Ye Rongxu seemed to be happy again and continued: “My dad said that after grandpa and grandma have agreed, they will hold an engagement banquet for us, and Qin Jingxu will know about it by then.”
Qin Chaoyan’s curved lips gradually pursed into a straight line, and his eyes became cold.
Sure enough, the other party wanted to make Qin Jingxu jealous.
“After knowing that you are my fiancé, he will not dare to bully you openly in the future.” Ye Rongxu secretly reminded him that he had to remember his kindness.
Even if he turns evil in the future, he should remember that “every grievance has its perpetrator” and go find Qin Jingxu, not him.
But it was obviously too late for him to say this. From the beginning, Qin Chaoyan believed that he changed his engagement partner just to anger Qin Jingxu.
After hanging up the call, Qin Chaoyan clenched his phone, his eyes getting colder and colder.
Since he wanted to snatch Ye Rongxu away, he should take the initiative to do something…
After a moment of silence, he suddenly turned on his phone, found Chen Jiang, who had just added contact with him today, and sent a message to him.
Two minutes later, he reached into his pocket with one hand and went downstairs to the market to buy groceries.
Lotus root, pork ribs, and some wolfberries that the young master thinks are essential for health can be used to make soup that helps clear heat and moisturize the lungs.
Chen Jiang revealed that Young Master Ye had a bad heart and lungs, and this soup was usually one of his recipes.
Back at his place, Qin Chaoyan stood by the kitchen sink, staring at the ingredients he had just bought expressionlessly. After a long time, he suddenly raised his hand and pressed his eyebrows.
He was really crazy.
