Chapter 1822: Chapter 1822: If It’s My Wife’s Cooking, Even Poison Must Be Swallowed
Xia Weibao was amused, "Just because she made it herself, you’re going to eat it? You know it’s poisoned, and you still eat it?"
Are you out of your mind!
Yang Li hesitated, "Well... she said it was hard work to make it, and not eating it would waste her effort. She looked so expectant... I’m currently in Director Lu’s position, as her brother, of course, I can’t let my sister be upset..."
Yang Li kept making excuses for himself, but in the end, he couldn’t come up with any more.
Xia Weibao was speechless, concluding that he truly was a diligent assistant, but a bit crazy!
He would risk his life just to complete his duties.
"Next time Shanshan gives you poisoned food, don’t eat it."
He’s gotten so much thinner, his face as pale as paper, looking so pitiful.
Who knows when Lu Hualiang will return? If it’s another month, won’t Yang Li have fallen into Shanshan’s hands?
Thinking it over, Xia Weibao added, "I’ll cover for you so that she can’t make you meals anymore."
Yang Li quickly raised his head, "No need!"
Xia Weibao, "..."
In this day and age, is someone actually eager to die?
Or maybe he’s addicted to eating poisoned food?
Realizing he’d overreacted, Yang Li awkwardly said, "If we suddenly stop Miss Shanshan from bringing food, she’ll definitely notice. I’ve been eating it for so long and haven’t died, a little longer won’t be a problem.
Besides, Director Lu should be back soon, I can hold out!"
Yang Li’s selflessness earned Xia Weibao’s deep admiration!
Assistant Yang, you are a dedicated hero!
Employees considering their bosses like this are really rare nowadays, Xia Weibao felt even more guilty. It was her sudden departure that caused this trouble, how could she let Yang Li suffer?
She patted his shoulder empathetically, "It’s been hard on you lately, when Director Lu returns, I’ll make sure he gives you a raise. But let’s stop eating Shanshan’s food, it’s too painful."
Yang Li hesitated, actually, it’s not that painful...
The boss will be back soon, and if he stops eating now, he might not get the chance again!
"Alright, it’s late, you should rest first."
After Xia Weibao finished speaking, she turned to the wardrobe to get clothes for a shower.
Yang Li wanted to say something more, but he couldn’t bring himself to.
He couldn’t just confess he didn’t mind eating poisoned food, could he? Xia Weibao would probably think him a psycho and send him to a mental hospital for a few days.
"Madam, you should rest early too. I’ll be sleeping in the study, just call me if you need anything."
He definitely didn’t dare sleep on the master bed, that was for the boss and his wife, so although he stayed in the master bedroom, he slept in the study.
After all, there was a door connecting the master bedroom and the study, so no one would notice.
Now that Xia Weibao was back, he definitely didn’t dare stay in the master bedroom, or knowing the boss’s jealousy, it wouldn’t be just being sent to Africa!
"Okay."
Xia Weibao answered while opening the wardrobe, only to find that all the clothes were untouched, just as they were when she left.
She frowned, turning her head to look at the suitcase nearby, which contained clothes in the same style as Lu Hualiang’s.
Glancing towards the study, she realized that Yang Li wasn’t wearing Lu Hualiang’s clothes after all.
True, Lu Hualiang was a neat freak, no way would he let others wear his clothes.
Seeing Yang Li always looking neat and tidy, he likely had a touch of neat-freak tendencies too.
Not bothering with him anymore, Xia Weibao grabbed her clothes and went for a shower.
Lu Hualiang almost called as if on cue.
She had just finished showering when his call came in.
