章節 121: Tired
Like what she more or less expected, she couldn't really finish all the food on the table. She was already full and there were still so much left. She softly sighed. More than half were almost untouched. It wasn't because she didn't have an appetite. It was just she got used to eating with someone recently and now that she's alone, the food seemed not too delicious and appetizing.
Although she normally wanted to have tea after eating, she knew she couldn't make that kind of request as she's just a trainee.
To her surprised, when the two people came back, they actually prepared three sets of tea she could choose. There were chamomile, peppermint and Longjing tea.
Han Meixiu started to doubt that she was actually receiving a 'special treatment.'
She slowly shook her head and a faint smile appeared on her face. If she wasn't wearing a mask, the two people would clearly mesmerized by her smile.
When they left, she started to enjoy the chamomile tea which was good for her throbbing head.
She brought the tea to the desk and tried to start working again but to her surprised, the computers were actually locked.
In short, since it's still lunch break she's not allowed to use it.
Since she couldn't work, she might as well enjoy her tea. Although there was no beautiful scenery to be appreciated while drinking, she could still close her eyes and imagine.

In the car going back, Han Meixiu was a little restless. She wasn't able to finish all the scenarios. She was thinking what would Liu Zijian's reaction as well as her father in law. Would they think she's not worth it? Or Maybe she's incompetent?
Recalling her last hour in that room, Han Meixiu couldn't stop fidgeting.
When the phone rang to inform her that her training ended for the day, she was still finishing her 64th scenario. She actually didn't answer right away the call hoping to have some few more minutes to wrap up the last one she was working on. But after it rang three times the computer suddenly shut down.
She couldn't help herself to curse.
The last call only informed her that the training ended for the day and leave everything behind including the phone itself.
She then heard a soft knock and someone came in to escort her outside.
She just absent-mindedly followed the man guiding her until she found herself being picked up by the same man of Mr. Liu to send her back to the Liu's residence.
The moment she sat down, she started to feel restless.
Her spirit was down until she arrived at the residence. She thought she could ask her Mommy Yi about some things but to her surprise nobody was at home except for the servants.
She finally check the time and it was almost 7 in the evening.
She didn't know if it's good or not. She's been pampered by the Liu Family. Being alone like this she actually felt melancholic.
She normally wanted to call Liu Zijian but she thought he might be busy.
She didn't want to disturb him.
As she was about to go to her room to change, her phone rang.
Madam Liu asked her if she wanted to join the older couple's dinner.
How could Han Meixiu agree when she would clearly become third wheel. With this, she politely declined and told her Mommy Yi not to worry.
She silently ate her dinner then tried to recall the remaining scenarios on her mind that she wasn't able to finish.
Han Meixiu actually read all the scenario first and solved the easiest ones thus she finished quite fast. But since nobody told her the minimum number of scenarios she should finish within a day, she assumed she must solve everything.
Right now, she's trying to remember the other scenarios she didn't solve and created a plan just in case she would be given a chance to continue working on that same set tomorrow.
If she would receive a different set, then she would just think that she's practicing her skills as of this moment.
When she felt a little dizzy because of too much focusing on her laptop, she closed her eyes to take a short break but she didn't foresee that her body was actually tired. Her 'break' turned to be longer than she expected. She fell asleep sitting while the laptop was still on top of the cushion that was placed on her lap.
She didn't even notice someone came inside the room and adjusted her body so she could sleep comfortably.

It was still dark outside when Han Meixiu tried to move but felt restricted.
There was something wrapped around her body. No matter how much she tried to wiggle to free herself, it was seemed impossible.
She reluctantly opened her eyes and saw an arm casually and securely rested around her waist while the hand was actually inside her night dress cupping her loosely one of her plumps.
She froze for a while trying to organize her thoughts.
No one would actually dare to go inside the Liu Residence and sleep in this room except for one person.
Besides, this position was extremely familiar to her.
'Zijian came back?' She asked herself.
She slowly turn a little to see if it's really him.
As she saw his peaceful sleeping face, a soft and warm smile appeared on her face. Against the faint light from a lamp not too far from them, she could clearly see her husband's countenance.
She moved her hand and tried to touch him.
She missed him. It was only couple of days but she got used to having him around.
When her touch gently traveled around the chin area of his face, she felt it was a little rough.
'Just how busy you were that you even forgot to shave?'
Her little heart ached by the thought that she wasn't there to help him.
It was also the time she noticed that Liu Zijian was still wearing an executive light colored long sleeved shirt.
Although it was hard to remove his arms around her, with much effort, she was able to free herself.
The young man was clearly in deep sleep as he didn't even budge when she finally extricate herself and placed a pillow in exchange of her body.
She checked her husband and found out he's indeed still wearing his trousers and socks.
It's not normal for him to just sleep with his executive attire on.
'He must have been feeling uncomfortable.' Han Meixiu concluded.
She increased the intensity of the light from the lamp and decided to change his clothes.
