Towards noon, Li Zhao and Yan Ting finally came downstairs.
Li Zhao lay on the sofa, groaning and not wanting to eat. It was unknown what Yan Ting finally whispered in his ears but Li Zhao reached out to poke Yan Ting's waist before sitting down at the dining table.
Looking at this scene, the cooking aunty asked the housekeeper, "Is the food today not appetizing?"
Previously, even if she cooked a pot of porridge, Mr Li could eat half a pot. Why didn't he want to eat today?"
"Cough." The housekeeper coughed a few times. "Mr Li is having fun with the boss and they will eat later."
"I just want to say that Mr Li has always been a good boy. Unlike Mr Li, the boss has to be coaxed to eat."
The housekeeper silently looked at the kitchen aunty. She must've forgotten that her salary was paid by the boss.
It was no wonder that the domestic staff was partial to Li Zhao. Li Zhao had a face that pleased his elders as well as a pleasant personality. Since he started living here, the entire house had come alive. Now everyone was afraid of Mr Li leaving the house for long. If Mr Li left for a long time, the boss didn't like to talk and the entire house would become lifeless. Well, once the final exams were over, it was winter vacation. The boss would be accompanied by Mr Li and would be happy again.
After lunch, Li Zhao slept for a while until Yan Ting took him back to school. The kitchen aunt had long prepared the food in an oversized insulation container. Li Zhao picked it up and suspected that this container weighed half a dozen kilograms.
There was snow on the road and the driver deliberately drove a non-slip car from the garage.
"During these few days of testing, shall I ask the driver to deliver you food?"
"No, I'll just eat with my classmates." Li Zhao lay lazily on Yan Ting's lap and lazily opened his mouth. "We will go to the study room at night to review."
"Your body..."
"Change the topic."
"Okay." Yan Ting rubbed Li Zhao's waist. "Once your final exam is over, should I come pick you up?"
Li Zhao didn't refuse.
Before getting out of the car, Yan Ting placed a scarf and hat on Li Zhao. "It's cold outside and there is still snow on the ground. Be careful not to fall."
Li Zhao took off his mask and told Yan Ting, "Wait until I come back."
He opened the door and a cold wind blew in. Li Zhao was afraid of Yan Ting catching a cold and quickly closed the door. He waved from Yan Ting from outside the car and turned to run toward the dormitory building.
Yan Ting watched him moving left and right in the snow like a door. He opened the car window a bit to reveal a pair of gentle eyes.
Li Zhao had just arrived at the dormitory building when he saw two people shivering while squatting by the flower bed. One of them saw him running and excitedly wanted to stand up, only to fall back into the snow.
Li Zhao recognized that they were reporters. He hesitated before sighing and stepping forward to help his colleague with the fallen reporter. The two reporters looked very young and inexperienced.
