“Hiss… it hurts, it hurts…”

Yu Kouchen turned over and was instantly stimulated by the soreness in his waist. All his sleepiness disappeared. He covered his lower back with his hands, a mask of pain on his face.

"I'll rub it for you. You'll feel better after drinking some nutritional painkillers. I'm sorry I couldn't control myself yesterday."

Cheng Keyu, who was holding him, heard his voice and woke up instantly. He reflexively rubbed his lower back with moderate force and skillful technique. Yu Kouchen instantly didn't feel so much pain.

"Well, it's really your fault, Mr. Cheng. I'm so sleepy and I still have to work today... Haah~ I want to sleep a little longer. What time is it now?"

Yu Kouchen felt comfortable being rubbed. He didn't sleep well the previous night and he instantly felt sleepy. His body unconsciously leaned into Cheng Keyu's arms. He felt lazy and spoke sleepily.

Cheng Keyu picked up the phone and looked at the time. When he saw the group message displayed on the screensaver of their family of three, he realized that he was holding Yu Kouchen's phone. He paused for a moment and did not look at the message. Instead, he looked at the time. It was already 10:30 in the morning, which was already late.

"It's still early, only 7:30, you can sleep a little longer. Your recording today doesn't start until 2pm, and I can go with you then."

Cheng Keyu put down his phone, finished his lie without changing his expression or heartbeat, then took out his own phone and prepared to send a message to Director Lin. However, as soon as he opened it, he saw that the other party said that the recording time was 2:30 in the afternoon, which was half an hour later than he said.

"Well, okay... I'll sleep a little longer then. Mr. Cheng, remember to wake me up... Haah~"

Yu Kouchen yawned lazily, and after he finished speaking, he reached his hand into Cheng Keyu's pajamas, touched the full and powerful abdominal muscles, and fell asleep peacefully.

"Go to sleep, little fox."

Cheng Keyu was already accustomed to Yu Kouchen touching his abdominal muscles or pectoral muscles when he slept, so he naturally had no objection at this moment. He even tucked in the quilt for him and continued to rub his waist.

Yu Kouchen fell asleep in a short while. It seemed that he was really exhausted. Cheng Keyu kissed his lips gently, and then lay down for a while before carefully taking his hand away, lifting the quilt and getting out of bed...

"Second Master, Lu Xi, the heir of the Lu family, came to the manor and said that he had important news to tell you. This news is related to Mr. Yu. We dare not ignore it, so we invited him to the reception room."

Cheng Keyu washed up and went downstairs. Just as he sat down at the dining table, Chi Mo came over, bowed slightly to him, and told him the news that Lu Xi had come to see him.

Cheng Keyu paused slightly, his eyes were deep and dark, no emotion could be seen. He took the cutlery and ate breakfast calmly, with no intention of going over now.

"Let him wait. Since he has found this place, he must have spent a lot of time and money. He should not be in a hurry. How can it be so easy to get benefits from me?"

As soon as Cheng Keyu finished speaking, he concentrated on eating breakfast. Chi Mo was not surprised after hearing this. When he saw Lu Xi appear at the gate of the manor, he thought he was a bit stupid. After hearing what he said, he felt that he was daydreaming.

If it weren't for the fact that he linked the information he knew to Yu Kouchen, Chi Mo wouldn't have wanted to let him in.

There are countless people like him in this world who have obvious motives, such as claiming to be concerned about Yu Kouchen but actually wanting to gain benefits from Cheng Keyu in order to increase their own interests. It was only because of Mr. Yu's face that he was given the opportunity to meet the Second Master.

In this regard, Lu Xi is quite smart, but in other aspects, it is really hard to say clearly. For many things, the way to survive is to see through them but not speak them out.

"Yes, Second Master."

Chi Mo received the order and left. Chi Ning then brought a nutritious medicinal soup to Cheng Keyu. He said nothing, but when Cheng Keyu saw the soup, he understood everything. He had indeed gone too far yesterday and lost too much essence, which was really harmful to his body.

"Do you have any more of this medicine?"

Cheng Keyu drank the soup calmly, then asked Chi Ning casually. Chi Ning bowed slightly and nodded, then answered him seriously.

"There are more. I specially prepared two portions. Mr. Yu's decoction has two more herbs to replenish essence and energy. The color will look darker, but the taste is the same."

"Well, I'll make sure he finishes drinking it."

"Ok."

The restaurant fell silent after this conversation. Not long after, footsteps were heard on the stairs. It was Yu Kouchen coming down. Cheng Keyu looked over and saw him yawning sleepily and looking over.

"Mr. Cheng, it's already late, why did you tell me it was half past seven..."

"I wanted you to sleep a little longer, why did you wake up so suddenly?"

Cheng Keyu put down the tableware, stood up from the dining table and walked to Yu Kouchen, put his arm around his waist, walked to the dining table, pulled out a chair, and asked him to sit down.

"Mr. Cheng, you are a very nice person, but you must tell me when you leave next time. I was sleeping when the feeling in my hand disappeared and I woke up."

Yu Kouchen answered Cheng Keyu's question only after he sat down. It sounded perfunctory, but he hit the point everywhere and it was hard to find any mistakes.

"Well, I'll pay attention next time."

As Cheng Keyu spoke, he handed the medicine that Chi Ning had brought over to Yu Kouchen, and considerately placed a plate of small candies with a moderate sweetness and cream filling for him.

"What kind of soup is this? Why is it the same color as coffee?"

Yu Kouchen took the medicine and smelled it. His nostrils were filled with the fragrance of plants and trees, which was not unpleasant and seemed to have a hint of sweetness. He took a sip out of curiosity. It tasted bitter with sweet, sweet with sour, and sour with astringent. It was a mixture of all five flavors, hard to describe and hard to put into words.

"Oh my god, this is medicinal soup? It tastes so bad!"

Yu Kouchen put on a mask of pain, pushed aside the medicine he had just taken a sip of, and stuffed a small piece of cake into his mouth to feel relieved. The medicine was too bitter, and he didn't want to take a second sip. It was really too hard to drink.

"Drinking it will be good for your body. Otherwise, you will be listless all day and your shooting state will be very bad. If your fans know about it, they will definitely have wild thoughts."

Cheng Keyu looked at Yu Kouchen with a gentle and amiable smile, but the words he spoke sounded like a ghost who was urging people to take their lives, which made Yu Kouchen feel creepy and got goose bumps all over his body.

"You don't want to be on the hot search because of this, right? I don't mind, but you are so thin-skinned, can you really let them discuss it?"

"Alright, alright, alright, Mr. Cheng, stop talking. It's not a big deal. It's just a bowl of medicine. I'll drink it all up. There's nothing to be afraid of."

Fuck! I am most afraid of bitter medicine!

Yu Kouchen looked ambitious on the surface, but in his heart he was already in tears. But what could he do? He had to fulfill his words, otherwise, it would be so embarrassing, as many people were watching him.

Yu Kouchen finished drinking the medicine. The moment he swallowed it, he took a small cake and stuffed it into his mouth. Only then did he suppress the urge to vomit. "Huh, I'm done. I want to have breakfast."

"You're really good, little fox. Drink a cup of hot water first, then have breakfast, you'll feel better."

Cheng Keyu poured him a glass of water, feeling a little distressed, and signaled Chi Ning not to prepare such bitter medicine next time.

"Second Master, when I was mixing these medicines, I didn't know that Mr. Yu couldn't tolerate bitterness. Next time, I will adjust the prescription to remove the bitterness from the medicine soup, leaving only the sweetness while maintaining the efficacy, so as to achieve better results."

When Chi Ning saw Yu Kouchen's reaction, he had already made up his mind and did not need Cheng Keyu to remind him. This is the awareness of being able to work in front of a big boss.

"Ah, very good."

"Hey, little Chi Ning, you are really smart. I am also looking forward to your newly developed medicinal soup."

"Okay, Mr. Yu."

The conversation in the restaurant ended again, and occasionally the voices of Yu Kouchen and Cheng Keyu could be heard. They chatted about family matters and shared interesting stories about little Beibei, and the atmosphere was quite harmonious.

Here, Chi Mo had someone pass the message to Lu Xi. After Lu Xi knew about it, he was not angry. Instead, he showed full patience, just to satisfy Cheng Keyu and get what he wanted from him.

After breakfast, Yu Kouchen learned about this and followed Cheng Keyu to the reception room. Although Cheng Keyu didn't like such a purposeful person very much, he did not neglect his hospitality at all.

When the two of them went over, Lu Xi had just finished lunch and was sitting on the sofa reading a book. He looked very relaxed and elegant, and did not seem like someone who came here to seek help, but rather like someone who came here on vacation.

"Mr. Lu, it's been a long time since we last met. I heard that you had some news to share with me. I'm very curious about what it is. Why did you have to come all the way here?"

Yu Kouchen spoke first and instantly took the initiative. Cheng Keyu followed him and sat down after he did.

"Mr. Yu, Second Master, I came here because I have something very important to tell you. I want to use this information in exchange for your assistance."

When Lu Xi saw them, he greeted them politely, but did not try to get close to them right away. Instead, he stated his purpose straight away.
