The next day, Mu Lan felt slightly better. After having breakfast, she called for Noel.
"Madam Mu, did you ask for me?" As usual he respectfully bowed.
Mu Lan smiled at him as she answered, "Yes, I'm feeling better than before. Can you kindly bring all my documents here? I would like to work. I can't neglect my duties any longer. You must be having pressure."
"That's very kind of you, Madam Mu. Fortunately first young master is doing your job. So, you don't have to worry about the household duty." Noel was pleased that Mu Lan wanted to work. However, he was afraid that Mu Liang might punish all the servants for making her work when she was still in bed rest.
"He is doing what? But what about company?" Mu Lan was stunned. Mu Liang told her nothing about it.
"I didn't ask him about it." Noel answered truthfully.
Mu Lan urgently asked, "Where is he now?"
Noel hesitated before he replied, "…He is in your study room, working."
"I see." She took her cell phone and called Mu Liang.
Mu Liang answered the call. "Did something happen?" He worriedly asked.
"Yes, something big happen." Mu Lan replied.
Mu Liang frowned. He immediately stood up and rushed towards the door. "What happened?"
"The high and mighty Mu Corporation is going to be bankrupted because the president of the company doing the house work." Mu Lan was pissed.
She liked it that he cared so much for her and she highly appreciated his concern for her. However, neglecting one's duty because of her, she didn't approve it.
Mu Liang halted in the track. He was silent for a bit. Mu Lan was also silent. Then he asked, "Are you angry?"
Mu Lan naturally denied, "Nope, I'm not angry. My hubby is working so diligently on my behalf, how can I get angry? You are working so faithfully that the company will sink and it will become my fault. I AM PISSED!" her voice rose gradually.
"Sorry." Not knowing what to say, Mu Liang apologized.
Mu Lan calmed down and said, "If you are sorry then let Noel bring my works to me, I'm going to do my job and you are going to the company, right now."
Mu Lan was already feeling guilty for making he stay home all the time because of her. They already passed a huge obstacle not so many days ago. If now something happened to the company, she could only blame herself.
Mu Liang was once again silent before asking, "Do you really want to work? But your body-"
Mu Lan cut his words. "I'm totally fine. I will on the bed and work. I won't move and the maids will help me if I need anything."
Mu Liang tried to find some excuses, "You need healthy food…"
"Mother will cook for me. I already told her." Mu Lan lied.
Mu Liang tried one last time. "But if you need to go to the washroom…"
Mu Lan curtly answered, "That won't happen. You just helped me in the morning, so don't worry. I don't have diabetes."
Mu Liang trust her on this. She didn't go to the washroom frequently, so if he was absent, he didn't have to worry about it.
Mu Liang had no other option left. Thus, he had to agree. "Alright. I will go to work. Be sure to take the medicine after you finish your meal and eat everything."
"I will." Mu Lan promised.
"I'm going then." He sighed dejectedly.
Mu Lan knew that she was harsh on him. So she smiled and said, "Have your lunch properly, and come home safely."
Mu Liang nodded. "Alright. Bye."
"Bye." Mu Lan hung up.
After hanging up the call she called Jing Sheng. "Mother, are you busy?"
Jing Sheng enthusiastically said, "I'm not. Xiao Lan, how are you feeling?"
Mu Lan smiled. "I'm feeling good. Mother, I want to eat your cooking. When will you be at home?"
"I'll be here to have my lunch. I will cook for you then. What do you want to eat?" Jing Sheng adored her so much.
"As long as it's spicy." Mu Lan sweetly asked for her favorite flavor.
Jing Sheng shook her head. "That won't do. You are still injured. You need to heal first. I'll cook some nourishing soup for you. I will tell the cook to ready the ingredients, so you won't have to starve for too long."
Mu Lan was sunk in despair. "Fine, you win. As long s your cooking, I'm fine with it."
Jing Sheng smiled. "Good girl. Now take some rest."
"Okay." Mu Lan hung up.
Noel already brought her documents. "Madam Mu, here is the documents."
Mu Lan looked at the papers and said, "So few! Where is the rest of them?"
Noel politely answered, "First young master finished them."
'It must have taken him a long time.' She thought. "When did he wake up?"
"He woke up at half past four." Noel said.
"What?" Mu Lan had a headache. "I can't believe this guy!" She was furious and also felt bad for Mu Liang. She glanced at Noel and said, "Next time, don't let him do my work again."
Noel nodded. "I understand." Then he added, "Two guests of third young master came yesterday from Saudi Arabia."
Mu Lan began working. She asked, "Did third young master tell you beforehand?"
"No, that's my first young master was angry and put the guests on the room with two single beds." Noel said.
"Haha… serves him right. Is he in the castle area?" She asked feeling amused.
Noel answered, "Yes, he is entertaining the guests."
"Leave him be for now. If he creates any problem for you, let me know." Mu Lan suddenly remembered anther thing. Since Mu Liang wasn't home, she wanted to take this chance. "Oh, another thing. How is Mark's condition after the accident?"
Noel replied, "He can walk now. He wants to train his body, so he is regularly going to the gym."
"Send him to me after you leave. I need to talk to him."
