Zhuo Yun sheepishly smiled when he realized Yang Yi hadn’t heard him. “Nothing.”
Yang Yi glanced at him before putting his earphone back on. “Don’t disturb me if it isn’t urgent.”
His voice sounded disdainful.
Zhuo Yun turned to look at his laptop. All he saw was code jumping on its black screen, so he asked him. “What are you up to?”
Since Yang Yi’s earphones could block noise and someone was talking to him through it, he did not hear Zhuo Yun.
Zhuo Yun pursed his lips before leaving the side hall. Yang Yi did not seem to be interested in talking to him, and he was not a computer expert.
Before long, the number seven appeared on Yang Yi’s laptop screen. After he saw the number, he could not help sighing.
He still came in seventh.
He wondered what kind of crazy stages the top two hackers had set up. They were impossible to crack…
Yang Yi removed his earphones and put the laptop on the table.
Meanwhile, outside.
Min Yu had already finished dinner. He headed to the living room to see Huo Yao curled up on the couch lazily looking at her phone, and he halted slightly.
She was dressed in loose-fitting homewear, which made her look somewhat petite. Some of her long hair hung down and covered her face partially. She looked particularly beautiful sitting there quietly.
Huo Yao detected someone’s gaze and raised her head to look at Min Yu, who stood there motionlessly. She raised her brows quizzically at him.
Min Yu narrowed his eyes before he walked over unhurriedly and sat down next to Huo Yao.
He casually placed his arm on the couch backrest lazily. He looked at the television, and asked her. “Want to watch some TV?”
Huo Yao’s lips twitched. She put her phone back into her pocket and shifted a little closer to Min Yu before she said, “I’ll take a rain-check on that. Why don’t you let me check your pulse instead?”
“Sure.”
Min Yu straightened his body slightly and gave her his hand. He said softly, “Go on and have a good look.”
Huo Yao glanced at him before she placed her hand on his pulse. A few seconds later, she retrieved her hand. “Other than excess heat due to Yin deficiency, there’s nothing wrong with you.”
Zhuo Yun was standing beside them, so he overheard her and asked. “What’s that?”
Why did it sound a little X-rated?
Zhuo Yun glanced at Min Yu’s lower belly.
Min Yu instantly looked impatient when he detected Zhuo Yun.
“…”
Huo Yao had a smirk on her face and replied ambiguously. “You can check it online.”
Zhuo Yun shook his head. Forget it. Since it would probably hurt a man’s pride, he would rather not find out.
But why would his boss end up suffering from excess heat due to Yin deficiency?
Zhuo Yun touched his chin and went into deep thought. But, he still could not figure it out, so he asked her. “How do we solve the problem?”
Min Yu pressed his forehead. “Stop talking already.”
Zhuo Yun instantly shut up.
Huo Yao looked sideways at Min Yu to see his ears turning red. Was he ever shy?
Min Yu could sense Huo Yao looking at him. He pursed his lips and coughed awkwardly. His slightly pink cheeks made him look even more striking.
Huo Yao shifted her gaze and put her legs down. She put on her slippers and stood up.
She contemplated momentarily before she said, “I’ll come by tomorrow and perform acupuncture on you. You just need to prepare some herbs. I’ll send you the list later.”
