2024-10-29 19:42:56"Err... Is it alright if I stay with you?" he shook his head and asked again.
"No, what I mean is... it'll be just the two of us. If people see us together, they will talk something bad about you and your family, right?" he tries to be rational.
"It's okay... Our family is always being bullied by others, so I don't really mind what they said. But, if you don't mind to travel 40 minutes away and get back to me in the morning tomorrow, then I also wouldn't mind though. It's already 1:00 am right now."
"Uh... But if master.."
"I won't tell him, okay? We're not a lovey-dovey couple. We just married to fulfill each other's needs and responsibilities." She cut his word before he could finish. He is sure a very loyal servant to his master, huh?
"After all, you said you can be my shield and sword, right? So this is my order." She insists Andy Lu has to stay with her tonight is because she was afraid of staying alone at home. Ever since she was a kid, her mother keeps saying that her father come back and see her every month, and it somehow gives her goosebump feelings like it was really that her father's ghost comes and sees her. She was also often seeing her mother talking alone in her bedroom.
"Yes, Madam." He sighs slowly. If it was his master's order, then he can't obey it.
After a long driving, they arrive at her grandmother's house. It was a small house, and the road is quite narrow to fit his Range Rover. He then decides to park his car at the side of the street and walk to her grandmother's house.
"You live here?" he asked with a complicated expression on his face. He thought at least the house was a bit spacious. 'How did master find this woman?'
"Uh-huh... Are you not comfortable?" she asked, worriedly looking at his face.
"Uh..no..I'm just a bit startled.."
"I know... you must be thinking that I had a good job but why I stay in this kind of house, right? Well, all my salary goes to my mother's treatments and also for my grandmother too. But, the real reason is that this house is an important place for my grandmother and my mother." She said with a smile on her face. She started to clear up the living room area and place a soft blanket on the couch and bring some pillow from her bedroom.
"You can sleep here tonight. Tomorrow, you need to help me to find a new house for my family." She continues after done preparing the space.
"Yes. Thank you, Ma... Er, Rin." he said and bowed a bit to her.
"Okay..." she walks to her bedroom back.
Before she closes the door, she said again. "If you want anything to eat, just take from the fridge, and if you want to take a shower, do tell me, I'll go prepare the bath for you."
Andy Lu was stunned for a moment. Wasn't that supposed to be his job taking care of all his master matter? Why did he feel like she was the one who was taking care of him? He looks at the pillow with a soft pink cover and smile at it.
'Hello kitty?'
...
The next morning when Hai Rin wakes up, she smelled something delicious from the kitchen. She opens her bedroom door and looks at the square table beside the kitchen. On the table, there's breakfast that Andy Lu makes for her.
Even it just a simple breakfast that he made, but it smells so delicious and looks tasty. Hai Rin look around the house to find that man, but she couldn't find him. Her grandmother's house is not that big. It only consists of 2 bedrooms and 1 bathroom.
The living room that Andy Lu uses to sleep last night is already tidy up, and he was also doing some cleaning job at her grandmother's house. Just when she goes to the kitchen counter to take a glass of milk, the bathroom door suddenly slides open.
It was Andy Lu who just finishes taking a shower. He only uses a towel to cover his lower body part since he forgot to bring his cloth to the bathroom earlier.
Seeing a solid abs body as Andy Lu has, Hai Rin accidentally slips the glass on her hand. In a second, Andy Lu catches the glass before the glass smash to the floor. Half of the milk in the glass spill on the floor. He sighs in relief. 'Safe!'
"Are you alright, Rin?" he asked and turned his body to put the glass into the sink. Wash it and put it back at the counter.
"Uh... Yeah... I think I need fresh air right now." she turns her head around, trying to forget the picture she imprints on her mind. 'Goddammit! What a hot body he has!' she thought.
Andy Lu nodded. He then finds a floor mop and pails around the kitchen and starts cleaning the mess. After they finished eating breakfast together, they went out and go to the Princeton hospital.
...
At Princeton Hospital.
"Andy, for today's task, I want you to find a suitable house for my family, Can you do it? I want to hire a few caretakers for my mother and my grandma too. I don't want a grand house. I just want a house that comfortable for both of them. Ah... also, don't forget to buy and give my mother a bouquet of rose's today. She surely will love it." She said when they walk together to her grandmother's room in Princeton Hospital.
"Noted. I'll take my leave now. If anything, just give me a call." Andy Lu nodded before taking his leave.
She opens the door and sat beside her grandmother. She held her hand and caressed it softly.
"Nainai, I know, you will be super mad at me. But, please... trust me for this time, okay? 5 years won't be too long. I do this for us, for our future. Please, forgive me this time, nainai." She kissed her grandmother's hand. She knew how stubborn her grandmother can be when she knew about this marriage. So she decides to hide about her marriage and find a good reason to convince her grandmother later.
In the afternoon, her phone rang. When she looked at the caller, she sighs a little before she picks it up.
'What does he want this time?'
"Hello."
"Hai Rin, where are you? Miss Tan from Ezy Technology was asking for you. She wants to set a new appointment with you regarding our new product." Chan Wei's voice sounded a bit of tension.
"I'm sorry sir, didn't you already fired me yesterday? Also, It's not nice to suddenly forgotten what you have said to me after you embarrass me in front of so many people yesterday, right?" She said politely, but her word cut through to Chan Wei's pride.
"Hai Rin, about yesterday I admit, it was my fault that I embarrass you in front of people and I am asking you nicely to come and work with me again. I double up your salary and allowance, okay? She only wants to make a deal with you and no one else can help me in this situation. You're my best worker here, please..one more chance?" he tries to put the bait.
"I'm sorry, sir. Even if you triple up my salary, I won't be working with you again. I will email you my resignation letter today. Now, please excuse me. My stress-free life is awaiting me." She still maintains her polite voice before she cut off the call.
After that, a new message pops up from her phone screen. It was Andy Lu that sends her a file that contains all properties list and housing detail all around the Calestical City.
She scrolled her phone with a serious-looking face. Looking one by one until she finds one that the most suitable house for her mother's and grandmother's taste. It is a double-story house with 4 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms. It's not very big, but it's spacious enough for them. The interior concept is modern and combined with traditional elements.
She checks the market price. It also at a reasonable price, and they have a security post at the entrance of the neighborhood. Each resident needs an access card to enter the community gate.
Hai Rin then sending a text to Andy Lu to confirm her choices, and then she texts him again to remind him about the roses and a few caretakers that she intends to hire. After sending him texts, she walks back to the seat beside her grandmother.
When she wants to take a sit, she saw that her grandmother slowly wake up from her anesthetic effect. She calls the doctor to inform them. A minute later, a few doctors come and check her grandmother's chart and do a few light tests.
"Grandma, after this, please take care of your health, okay? Don't lift anything heavy, don't stress out and don't work too hard. You must eat healthy food if you want to recover fast." One of the doctors said to Hai Yun with a bright smile on her face.
Hai Yun just nods her head slowly. Her gaze won't turn away from her granddaughter's face. She got the feeling that her granddaughter has done something big to save her life. But she couldn't figure it out. She will feel terrible if she causes her granddaughter to suffer later.
