C298

Before they could get out of the manor, Bai Yaoyao called for the driver to turn around and drive back.

Puzzled, Mann quickly asked, "What's the matter, Miss Bai?"

"I almost forgot my promise to go back first." Bai Yaoyao got off the car in a hurry and walked toward the kitchen.

"Are you hungry?" Mann followed closely behind, but seeing the people in front walking faster and faster, she couldn't help but worry. After all, they were all pregnant, it wouldn't be good if they slipped or fell.

After entering the kitchen, there were still two chefs discussing how to feed Miss Bai who was pregnant at night. Besides, Young Master Qu would definitely come back for dinner.

As usual, Qu Ruo rarely came back for dinner. He would either not eat or just settle things at the company. He didn't go back to the usual social interaction, so he asked his people and assistants to come to the city.

He didn't know why, but he just didn't want to come home. He always felt that there was a slight lack of popularity in this huge manor.

However, as long as Bai Yaoyao was there, it would be different. Everyone liked her, and she added a lot of colour to this lifeless manor. She was indeed a gentle woman, like a good wife and mother.

Therefore, even these two chefs knew very well that as long as Miss Bai was present, Young Master Qu would definitely come back to eat. Their work was also not so leisurely as to take someone's salary for free every day.

"Miss Bai …" The two respectfully greeted each other in unison.

Bai Yaoyao nodded her head in a friendly manner before asking, "Excuse me, do you have any fresh meat stuffing?"

The two chefs looked at each other, then nodded, "Yes, we just finished preparing it. We need to use all of the dishes today, so we've already prepared them in advance. They are all fresh."

"Alright, then I'll have to trouble you to help me out. I need to do something, please help me out a bit." Bai Yaoyao took the apron that hung on the side of the table and tied it up for Mann. She did not expect Miss Bai to cook the dishes herself.

Although everyone knew that Miss Bai's culinary skills were good, it would still take some courage for her to show off in front of these two famous head chefs.

Looking at the side of Bai Yaoyao's face as she cooked, Mann finally understood why Young Master Qu was so infatuated with this woman. Her earnest look was really mesmerizing and also unavoidably pleasing to others.

The gentle outline of the face outlined the perfect face. Occasionally, a few strands of hair would fall down from the side of her face, but she didn't care about it. This was what Miss Bai meant by gentle and virtuous words, a woman suitable to be Young Master Qu's wife.

In about half an hour, a delicious and delicious meatball would be ready.

As the fragrance filled the air, some crystal clear sweat started to seep out of Bai Yaoyao's forehead.

She used a towel to wipe the sweat off her forehead and let out a long breath.

"Miss Bai, may I ask, from whom did you learn your culinary arts?" One of the chefs couldn't help but gasp in surprise when he saw the dishes Bai Yaoyao had cooked.

Bai Yaoyao smiled embarrassedly as she placed the items into the thermal insulation box. On the way, she poured some broth over the box, instantly filling it with a fragrant aroma.

"I learned it from my mother, just some simple and easy dishes. That's why I was able to learn a little. It's so difficult that I didn't learn it. Too stupid, I can't learn it either."

"No, no. I feel that this dish of yours is very well cooked. No matter how one looks at it, you truly possess the talent to become a chef."

Listening to the chefs' praises, Bai Yaoyao felt even more embarrassed.

After exchanging a few pleasantries, she and Mann hurriedly got into the car and rushed towards Presidential Palace.

She had already planned this out on the way here. Although Chu Shangyu's fiancee might have no solution to her problem, although she had once had a sliver of feelings for him, she was fortunate that she saw it clearly and didn't sink in.

Most importantly, that detestable man had slowly entered his heart. Therefore, he couldn't leave even a little space in his heart for others.

Today, she was only going to Chu Shangyu's birthday party. So what if Liu Wan misunderstood or not? If it wasn't for the agreement with her, why would she be wading in muddy water?

The phone, on the other hand, worked for the night and could actually be used normally. Just as it reached the Presidential Palace's gate, it received a message.

It said: Today is my birthday. Have you forgotten something? Didn't we agree to celebrate together?

Bai Yaoyao smiled faintly as she looked at the thermal insulation box in her hand. She believed that he would like this birthday present.

The security in front of the Presidential Palace was extremely tight. Although Bai Yaoyao and Mann had passed a few tests, they were stopped at the very last moment. Furthermore, they had already checked the contents of the thermal insulation box several times already.

"I'm sorry, young lady. You can go in and pass this checkpoint, but you cannot bring the things in." One of the men in black extended his hand and made a gesture of "please".

Bai Yaoyao looked at him awkwardly. "But I gave this to President. If I don't take it in …"

"Apologies little miss, these things cannot be taken in …" The tone was very hard. After all, he was the one who was protecting the President.

Mann was anxious too. She had personally seen Miss Bai make this food. If she didn't take it with her now, wouldn't she have wasted a lot of effort?

"Hello, we're on Young Master Qu's side …"

Before Mann could finish her words, the man in black said, "No matter who it is, rules are rules, and cannot be brought in! If you don't want to go in, then hurry up and leave! "

Mann had wanted to argue, but Bai Yaoyao had taken out her phone in order to give Chu Shangyu a pleasant surprise. But now, it seemed that a pleasant surprise was out of the question.

What he didn't expect was that the call was connected immediately. He thought he would be very busy. After all, he was the star of the day, but the call was picked up so quickly.

"Shang … Mr President … I am Yaoyao." With that soft voice, a smile appeared on Chu Shangyu's face.

At the moment, he was inside Presidential Palace, surrounded by Chinese high-ranking officials, and foreign leaders. Everyone was discussing some matters regarding the various countries, but Chu Shangyu couldn't care less about anything. Ever since he sent that message, he had been holding his phone in his hand, waiting for it to come.

"Yeah, I know. I've been waiting for your call." The voice was surprisingly filled with unprecedented gentleness. A smile that hadn't appeared for the entire day emerged on his sharp and clear face.

His abnormal behavior drew the attention of many people present, and they all whispered: "Does the President not like Miss Liu Family? Look at the entire process of the marriage announcement, they were all expressionless, without a single trace of a smile."

"You don't need to worry about that. Since ancient times, in the emperor's family, there has always been a king or general. You are not happy, but when you look at President's uncontrollable smile, you know that the marriage was definitely arranged by him. "

The two of them chatted as they shook their heads helplessly.

Bai Yaoyao, who was outside of Presidential Palace, told Chu Shangyu everything that had happened. She hoped that he would be able to say a word and let her bring the things in.

Sure enough, in less than two minutes, the man in black and his subordinate ran over eagerly, his face full of smiles: "So you're President's best friend, please come in, you've already personally spoken, there's no need for you to go through the rest of the obstacles, just go in directly."

Bai Yaoyao didn't bother to say anything else. She merely nodded her head in thanks before hurrying inside.

This man in black didn't do anything wrong. After all, he was just following the rules. There was no need to be honest with him.

Within the Presidential Palace, a portion of the guests had already left, but there were still a few remaining.

When Bai Yaoyao and Mann walked in, no one noticed them. They were just two ordinary guests. However, Zheng Qi was the first to walk over. He greeted Bai Yaoyao with a smile as he slightly nodded his head, "Miss Bai, you're here."

"Yes, Director Zheng, long time no see."

"Long time no see. Miss Bai is becoming more and more beautiful." Zheng Qi smiled and joked, "Sir is waiting for you upstairs, please follow me."

Zheng Qi gestured for Bai Yaoyao to follow him. Mann said in a low voice, "Then I'll wait for you downstairs."

Bai Yaoyao nodded and followed Zheng Qi upstairs.

Upstairs, in Chu Shangyu's resting room. The light inside was very soft, not dazzling or dim. It could be said that it was just right.

Bai Yaoyao was wearing a pair of high-heeled shoes today to match her dress. Although they weren't very high, they made her feel sore after taking a few steps.

He opened the door and waited for Bai Yaoyao to enter. Only then did he see that Chu Shangyu was leaning against the sofa. He looked very tired. Even his tightly shut eyes were filled with fatigue.

The room was carpeted and the floor felt soft to the touch. Lili could not stand steadily and decided to put her things aside. She quietly took off her shoes and placed them at the door.

Perhaps the sound of Chu Shangyu being held up woke him up. He opened his eyes vigilantly and saw that the little face that he had missed for so many days had finally appeared in front of his eyes.
