“Did I disturb mom?”
Seeing him co back, Rong Dai asked.
He shook his head, his expression a little strange, and Rong Dai imdiately beca nervous, thinking it was because his mother was dissatisfied.
“Did it not suit mom's taste?”
Seeing her nervous, he looked at her, “You did very well. You're my wife, even if you want to please soone, you only need to please . You don't need to deliberately try to please anyone else in the family.”
Although Rong Dai's heart was ward that he said this, given her current situation, it would be difficult to do so.
“Then what's... wrong with you?” After interacting with him for so many days, she could basically guess what was causing even a subtle change in his expression.
But he had just gone up to deliver a bowl of wonton soup, so how could his expression have changed so much in that short ti?
“I'll tell you about this slowly when I have ti. There are so things...I don't really know how to deal with.”
He said seriously looking at her.
After so many years, he was of course aware of what his mother had done for him. It was just that over the years, he had also gotten used to being alone.
He was very surprised that Rong Dai could enter his world, so he cherished her even more.
Over the years, his mind had been focused on work, so there were inevitable downsides, and he no longer knew how to interact with his family.
Rong Dai was a little startled, because it didn't seem like the kind of thing he would say.
But she didn't press him further, only held his hand gently and said earnestly, “It's okay. Rember I'm by your side. You're not alone, Shao Ting.”
Even in her past life when he was the Emperor, there were still problems he couldn't solve. How much more so in this modern era which was no longer an imperial era. There would naturally be many difficult issues.
The husband and wife then went upstairs carrying the bird's nest soup and wontons and knocked on Huo i Shu's door. Before Rong Dai could say anything, she heard Huo i Shu's irritated voice, "I already said I won't eat! I won't eat, I just won't eat..."
"Huo i Shu, my wife worked hard to make this. How dare you speak to her in that manner?"
Before she could finish speaking, Huo Shao Ting's icy cold and threatening voice exploded outside the door, startling Huo i Shu so much her back went cold. She hurriedly rushed to open the door.
Standing on this side, Rong Dai almost wanted to hold her forehead in exasperation. Was he trying to get her into trouble or help her?
Which brother threatens his own sister like that?
"Big brother, sister-in-law, I didn't know it was you. I thought it was mom..."
Although Huo i Shu respected Huo Shao Ting, she also feared him. Her tone imdiately lost its boldness from earlier.
Seeing her nervousness, Rong Dai had originally wanted Huo Shao Ting to placate her as well, but that was clearly impossible given the situation.
She took the tray from Huo Shao Ting's hands, gently reminding him, "Shao Ting, don't you still have company matters to deal with? Go take care of that first. I'll chat with i Shu."
As she said this, she blinked at him.
Huo Shao Ting naturally understood her aning. He felt a little conflicted inside.
No one had ever dared to order him like this before. She was the first, but this feeling...was a bit wonderful.
If Special Assistant Zhang were here, he would probably vomit blood and die from the horror of experiencing being commanded by the CEO.
"Go rest early. Staying up late isn't good for you." Huo Shao Ting nodded. He did indeed have so things to take care of. He would never leave managing Rong Dai's schedule to others. Of course he had to handle his wife's matters himself.
"Sister-in-law...you're amazing! You can actually order my big brother around. He's only ever been the one ordering others!"
Huo i Shu watched Huo Shao Ting obediently leave, completely stunned. She turned back and gave Rong Dai a big thumbs up, eyes full of admiration.
Rong Dai smiled, "He really does have things to take care of. How could I order him around?"
Huo i Shu saw through her but didn't say anything. Slling the aroma of the wontons wafting out, her stomach very uncooperatively growled loudly.
"Did you really make this yourself? It's more delicious than the restaurant's!"
Huo i Shu was starving. As soon as the wonton entered her mouth, she felt the taste of happiness taking flight. She asked Rong Dai with wontons still in her mouth.
Rong Dai nodded and squatted down in front of the guqin that had been thrown on the floor. She picked it up and placed it back on the guqin stand.
"Such a fine guqin, how could you bear to throw it? It's a bit of a pity."
Huo i Shu viciously bit into a wonton, anger and grievance imdiately appearing on her face as she glared at the guqin as if it were her enemy!
"I won't just throw it, I'll pack it up and mail it back to that cheap woman!"
Hearing this, Rong Dai felt this matter was not simple. She sat down across from Huo i Shu and waited for her to finish eating.
"Feel better now?" Seeing Huo i Shu eat contentedly, she gently asked.
Huo i Shu nodded, looking at her with shining eyes, "Sister-in-law, your cooking skills are too amazing. Not only embroidery but cooking so deliciously too."
Rong Dai smiled lightly. There was still much more she could do. Who told her to be a well-educated young lady from a prestigious family in her past life, yet was foolishly tricked and forced to learn cooking as well.
"Let's not talk about . Your mother has been worried about you all day. If it's convenient, could you tell what happened?"
She tentatively asked.
With her stomach full, Huo i Shu's anger had lessened sowhat. She got up and took out a handwritten musical score, then flipped through her phone to pull up a new song to show Rong Dai the sheet music.
Rong Dai was skilled in the six arts. Although the notation was different from her past life, looking at the sa symbols, she could still make comparisons.
"This...seems to be the sa song, just with so minor modifications made in parts of the mobile phone version."
"This was a close girlfriend from my conservatory, no, now she's a cheap woman! I wrote this song and only showed it to her, but she completely plagiarized it!"
"This guqin was a gift from her. Now just looking at it makes nauseous! To think I even helped her so many tis! She actually dared to use like this!"
Huo i Shu was nearly about to explode with rage, her face ashen.
Rong Dai understood after listening. Soone had stolen her musical score and published it as their own. No wonder she was so angry. If it had happened to herself, she would also be furious.
How could she not be angry at soone misappropriating her hard work?
"Don't be angry first. Can we get this song back?" She comforted Huo i Shu, but suddenly felt her comfort was aningless.
If they could get it back, with the young miss's temperant, she would have gone to find soone already. How could she possibly just vent her frustrations at ho?
