The Mad Young Master Falls Asleep Every Night to My Fragrance - Chapter 29

Jiang Youxi’s eyes darted around, and after a moment of surprise, she carefully examined his expression with a hint of inquiry.

Was it just her imagination?

Why does He Zhuo seem gentler to her?

Jiang Youxi lowered her hand and questioned, “Why did you pinch my nose?”

“Because it’s easy to scrape.”

“…”

“For example, your little face,” He Zhuo said with a smile, pinching her soft little face, “has a particularly nice feel to it.”

“…”

Is this guy treating her like a plaything?

Jiang Youxi pulled his hand away, raised her index finger, and waved it: “Senior He Zhuo, there’s no such thing as a free lunch. If you pinch me again, I’ll have to charge you!”

“How many?”

“What?”

“I’ve been under a lot of stress lately, so I wanted to sculpt something to relieve it.” He asked her seriously, “You have a pretty face. So, how much do you want?”

“Would I be the kind of person who would sell my face for money?!”

“Ten thousand times.”

Jiang Youxi opened her eyes.

“Not enough?”

“No–“

“Fifty thousand once.”

Jiang Youxi grabbed his left hand with both hands and slapped it against her right cheek: “Okay! One minute at a time!”

He Zhuo’s eyes lit up with pleasure as he fondled and kneaded her face with great enjoyment.

“Still not enough?”

He Zhuo was very pleased to see her eyes shining and her looking at him as if he were a banknote: “Indeed, a little.”

Jiang Youxi immediately grabbed his right hand and placed it on her left cheek: “It’s okay, pinch me as much as you want, I may not have money, but I have plenty of face!”

The man smiled and gently rubbed and pinched her face with both hands, not forgetting to pat her head.

Jiang Youxi was also very professional, like a kitten being petted comfortably, tilting her head back and showing a very professional expression of being petted comfortably.

The emotional value provided was very well done.

But as he continued to rub her head, Jiang Youxi realized that his technique of rubbing her head looked familiar.

She opened her eyes and looked at the hand above her head.

etc!

Isn’t this the technique he often uses when he’s messing with Xiaodu?!

Jiang Youxi immediately pulled his hand away: “One minute is up!”

He Zhuo was also very trustworthy; he took out his phone and transferred 100,000 yuan to her.

Jiang Youxi’s eyes lit up. She hugged his arm and rubbed her cheek against his: “Thank you so much for your kindness, Senior He Zhuo! You can always call me if you need anything in the future~”

He Zhuo was very pleased and patted her head: “Don’t worry, I won’t hold back.”

The phone rang as soon as he finished speaking.

He Zhuo took it out and looked at it, then walked to the side to answer the call.

Jiang Youxi was in a great mood. She picked up a knife and fork, forked a piece of peach, and put it in her mouth while rubbing Xiaodu’s head.

Xiao Du was very good at acting cute. He lay down at her feet, nudging Jiang Youxi’s trouser leg with his muzzle while whimpering softly.

Seeing that it wanted to eat peaches, Jiang Youxi forked a piece and put it in her hand to feed Xiaodu.

After He Zhuo finished his call, he saw a person and a dog happily eating peaches.

Aunt Zhang cut the peaches into large pieces. When the little girl ate one piece, the flesh would make her cheeks bulge out, like a little hamster.

He Zhuo stared quietly at her chewing pink lips, his eyes deep and unfathomable.

“Alright, Xiaodu, you’ve already eaten a lot, you can’t eat anymore.” Jiang Youxi was about to put the peach back into the fruit plate when her wrist suddenly tightened.

She was startled, and when she looked up, she saw the man holding her wrist, his dark eyes lowered, gazing intently at her.

“What’s wrong?”

As soon as she finished speaking, the man pulled her hand over.

The man opened his mouth slightly, calmly took the piece of peach from her hand, and ate it.

Jiang Youxi stood frozen in place, staring blankly at his series of actions.

His chin twitched slightly, his thin lips were tightly pursed, and his chewing movements were refined and composed.

His Adam’s apple bobbed as he chewed, exuding a sexy yet strangely erotic aura.

Jiang Youxi saw for the first time that even eating something simple could be so pleasing to the eye and full of sex appeal when faced with such top-notch beauty.

Is there anything else?

Jiang Youxi’s thoughts were pulled back, and she subconsciously used her knife and fork to fork a piece and feed it to him.

He Zhuo looked at her and smiled, “So obedient?”

Jiang Youxi snapped back to reality instantly.

etc!

She just used those cutlery!

Jiang Youxi, you’re so pathetic!

I was so easily bewitched by his face!

He Zhuo opened his mouth to eat, but the piece of peach was immediately taken back.

He looked up at her and chuckled, “What, you won’t let me eat if I just compliment you?”

“You…you can’t eat like that.”

“Why?”

“Because…” Fearing that it would be awkward for both of them to say this, Jiang Youxi could only say, “The fork is dirty.”

After saying that, he threw the fork into the trash can.

“…”

He Zhuo smiled helplessly, said nothing, rubbed her head, and then got up and went inside.

Jiang Youxi only breathed a sigh of relief after he had walked away.

She slapped her hand in exasperation: “Useless!”

–

Before we knew it, it was evening.

Jiang Youxi was about to leave when Aunt Zhang asked her to stay for dinner before going back.

Xiao Du has fully recovered, and the time she and He Zhuo agreed upon expired today.

She wanted to find an opportunity to talk to He Zhuo, but he had been busy working on the second floor since entering the house and hadn’t come down yet.

“Okay, I also have something I want to tell him.”

Aunt Zhang immediately went to prepare the meal.

After the food was ready, Aunt Zhang went upstairs to call He Zhuo, but he was in an online meeting, so Aunt Zhang had to go downstairs to wait for him.

They waited from 6 p.m. until 7 p.m.

Worried that Jiang Youxi would go hungry, Aunt Zhang told her to eat first.

This is someone else’s home, and the host didn’t even come down to eat. How could she, as a guest, eat by herself?

Jiang Youxi smiled and said it was okay.

“It’s alright, this isn’t the He family home, there aren’t so many rules here, Miss Jiang, please eat in peace.” Worried that she might feel uncomfortable eating alone, Aunt Zhang took the initiative to sit down and eat with her.

Jiang Youxi also felt a bit hungry, so she stopped refusing and sat down to eat as well.

Halfway through the meal, seeing that He Zhuo hadn’t come down yet, Jiang Youxi couldn’t help but ask, “How much longer is his meeting?”

“It will probably take another hour.”

Jiang Youxi asked in surprise, “He’s so busy, isn’t he hungry?”

“The second young master started from scratch and is currently in the early stages of his business, so he is indeed quite busy,” Aunt Zhang said with a smile. “Miss Jiang, don’t worry, I have prepared some snacks for the second young master, so he won’t go hungry.”

Starting from scratch?

Jiang Youxi asked with some curiosity, “The He family is so big and powerful, didn’t they provide him with any support for his career?”

Aunt Zhang sighed: “When he was six years old, the second young master and his wife were shipwrecked at sea. His wife died on the spot, and the second young master disappeared for many years until he was thirteen years old when the He family found him.”

“The He family is quite complicated. The husband remarried during the years when the second young master was living away from home, and had an older brother and a younger sister. The second young master and the husband did not have a good relationship, so since he was admitted to university, the second young master has moved out and rarely comes back to the He family.”

“Brother?” Jiang Youxi was puzzled. “Since his father remarried, his children should be younger than Senior He Zhuo. Why does he have an older brother?”

Thinking of the lady’s situation, Aunt Zhang felt helpless: “The master and the first wife were in a business marriage. Before they got married, the master already had a family outside. The first wife only found out after the marriage.”

Jiang Youxi was somewhat shocked, and vaguely guessed what was going on.

He Zhuo’s biological mother passed away many years ago. Although He Zhuo returned to the He family, his father had remarried. Although he was also a member of the He family, his situation was ultimately very awkward.

He Zhuo has a bad relationship with his father, and he doesn’t feel a sense of belonging to the He family, so it’s understandable that he doesn’t want to go home.

No wonder he wasn’t in a good mood on his birthday; he was probably upset about all the troubles at home.

Thinking the worst, he probably had a fight with his family, which is why he was so depressed.

“The second young master suffered from severe sleep disorder since childhood and attempted suicide several times. Until his senior year of high school, he suddenly realized something and began to study hard. He was successfully admitted to Bojiang University with the first place in the National Mathematical Olympiad.”

“Since then, I have never seen the second young master commit suicide again.”

Aunt Zhang told her a lot about He Zhuo’s sleep disorder symptoms.

He Zhuo has reduced his reliance on medication to fall asleep, and his mental and emotional state has improved considerably.

“Especially Miss Jiang, since you appeared, I can feel that the second young master has changed a lot.”

“Is there?”

Did he transform from a crazy, perverted person into a law-abiding citizen?

If that’s the case, then there are indeed some changes.

She could definitely sense that He Zhuo was much gentler than when she first met him.

“Of course! The second young master is more cheerful than before, and he smiles more often.” Aunt Zhang said with satisfaction, “I can tell that the second young master is very relaxed when he’s with you.”

“Miss Jiang, you are truly the best medicine for my second young master!”

“…”

Jiang Youxi chuckled dryly twice: “I see he rarely goes back to school. Don’t his teachers say anything about it?”

“The second young master completed all the knowledge required for the entire four years of university during his freshman year, so he did not need to stay at school to attend classes all the time.”

Aunt Zhang said admiringly, “The second young master is amazing! He gets full marks in every exam. His teachers like him very much. They know that he works hard to start his business, so they don’t force him to go back to school. As long as he comes back to take the exam on time, they can’t bear to scold him.”

Ever since Jiang Xu mentioned that He Zhuo was admitted through a special recommendation, Jiang Youxi knew that He Zhuo was very capable.

I never expected him to be so amazing!

As they ate and chatted, Jiang Youxi learned a lot about He Zhuo from Aunt Zhang for the first time.

After dinner, Aunt Zhang was clearing away the dishes when she saw that He Zhuo hadn’t come down yet. Just as she was about to go up and call him, Jiang Youxi offered, “I’ll go, you go ahead and do your thing.”

She just happened to want to talk to him about Xiaodu.

Jiang Youxi went up to the study on the second floor, knocked on the door, and lowered her voice: “Senior He Zhuo, are you still busy?”

There was no response.

Jiang Youxi knocked several times, but no one came to open the door.

“Then I’ll come in.”

Jiang Youxi pushed open the door and went in, only to find the room dimly lit, with only a faint blue light emanating from the computer on the table next to her.

On the large sofa by the window, a man was lying peacefully asleep, wearing headphones.

No wonder no one answered; they were wearing headphones.

It was already December, the weather had suddenly turned cold, and snowflakes were falling outside.

Although there was heating inside, it was still hard to keep out the cold.

Seeing that half of the blanket on him had slipped to the ground, and worried that he would catch a cold, Jiang Youxi quietly walked over, bent down, picked up the blanket, and gently covered him with it.

She turned to leave, but then her eyes seemed to catch something out of the corner of her eye, and she paused.
