'Oh it's a brand new day with my brand new life, I feel like a Disney character; I can sure break into a song if you want to, after getting freshened up I walked down the stairs to the outdoor activity room.'
One hand holding a cup of Mocha and sitting on a couch admiring the view, how very relaxing, in my past life I don't rember myself having such a ti.'
A bell rang sowhere I looked over my shoulders brother Li Jie was outside the doors.
I let him in; he looked at from head to toe, ensuring everything is good there was a sign of relief in his eyes.
"Young lady, did you have a good sleep?"
"Yes brother"
"Your physiotherapist would be here for your session by 10 a.m."
"Okay, Brother Li Jie, have a seat by and enjoy a cup of coffee."
He sat on the single chair and I fixed my cup of coffee. 'Pardon my manners but I only know how to make coffee so no options provided'.
After taking the cup from he asked "Young lady, how do you want to manage the household?"
He sipped on the coffee a mont passed, 'I was a little bit nervous then there was a genuine appreciation in his eyes my inner vanity did a lovely girl's Swag move'.
"Brother, I want to know in what circumstances you can help then I will arrange personal". Though not direct he understood the underlined subtext from my question.
"Young lady, let properly introduce myself, I have been with your family for all my years. My father was your father's manager and friend. I was brought up under your parents' blessings and I have looked after you all my years after your parents passed away, your custodian was my father later in an accident my father died and I beca your custodian. While you were in a coma, I worked as an assistant to the CEO of the Hu Corporations and now that you are back I am back by your side, that is, if you take ."
"Brother Li Jie, thank you for your hard work... do not distance yourself, I am aware of your presence from so of my early mories that is why I followed you out of the hospital otherwise I wouldn't have done so."
"Young lady, what you wish to do then about Household personnel?"
"Arrange for so trustworthy people to work inside the house a responsible steward would do, for outside the main building, to maintain the property arrange for so contract company that you see fit. But inside the main building, 3rd floor would be off-limits for all without my explicit orders. Hiring a nutritionist who would do the cooking, without my permission no other person can enter the main building. I would review the security grid later, for now, let's keep it up to this."
"Yes Young lady"
"Brother, the steward and the nutritionist I would like to personally interview them you sort out a list of competent people for the post."
"Yes young lady"
Suddenly Brother Li Jie took out his phone
"Young lady, your physiotherapist is here accompanied by Dr Lee."
"Oh, Dr Lee is here, sure welco them."
"Yes young lady"
'Oh, Li Jie is so uptight', I sighed.
I went to the drawing-room to receive the guest, Dr Lee was accompanying a young lady by his side she looks too fairy-like, sharp facial features, nice eyebrows and temperant of soone with absolute confidence in her craft.
"Nice to et you. You sure looked radiant outside the hospital room."
"Well, what can you say, hospitals are ant for patients and ho is ant for outpatients with the sense to enjoy life."
He saw observing the lady he was accompanying "Ms Shui let introduce her, she is Dr Yun Hualing, my sister, a Traditional as well as Western dicine practitioner and the best Physiotherapy in the country."
"Hello Dr Yun, I will be under your care from now on."
"Hello, Ms Shui, let's start the check-up and diagnosis."
"Sure" I replied.
We moved to the outdoor activity room and there Dr Yun gave a thorough check-up and prescribes the flowchart for my Physiotherapy. I give it a look; there were no imdiate problems in it.
So the morning went by exercising my limbs slowly. At around late afternoon after having lunch both Dr Lee and Dr Yun left.
Brother Li Jie stayed behind, "Young lady, how do you feel?"
"It's good brother, yesterday I asked for the accounts book."
"Young lady, they are on your table on the ground floor study room."
"Thank you brother, stay behind, let's chat it's too boring to stay all by myself."
"Sure, what would you like to have at dinner? I would cook for you."
"Brother you know how to cook?" he saw the radiant light in my eyes and smiled brightly. "There is a lot more to your brother" he smiled and went to the supermarket to get stuff for making the dinner.
I realised that Li Jie was finally warming up to , so next on the itinerary is looking through those account books. It took all evening for to look through and make sense of the funds. Dinner was cooked and the aroma made hungry.
I went to the dining room where food was served Li Jie looked at and smiled as an elder brother watching his younger sibling being adorable and right on cue my stomach grumbled declaring that I was hungry.
We both laughed and Brother Li Jie served dishes, there were congee and vegetable salads as well as so soup. I quickly sit down on the chair and started to dig in.
"Brother, I read through those funds but I do not understand the extra 10 million from The Hu Corporation."
"Young lady that was provided by the CEO of the Hu Corporation, in good faith to congratulate you on your health."
"That is so big red packet I must say, we will need to pay it off."
"As your wish, is the food delicious?
"It is"
"Glad you liked it."
After dinner, Li Jie left. I went to my study room on the third floor and quietly pulled out a notepad and jotted down my 'To-Do List'.
