The Mad Young Master Falls Asleep Every Night to My Fragrance - Chapter 64

He Zhuo was worried that she was working too hard and didn’t want her to do it, but the girl was determined, so he could only respect her decision.

He couldn’t help but ruffle her hair: “Fine, whatever you want.”

–

He Zhuo agreed to let Jiang Youxi cook, with the salary remaining at the previously agreed 100,000 yuan per month. However, considering that Qu Sheng really didn’t have the money, He Zhuo ultimately decided to pay for it himself.

When Jiang Youxi found out, she declined directly, saying that she was only there to help and didn’t need any money.

“Not enough?”

“No way!” Jiang Youxi quickly explained, “I just think it’s too much! And I really want to help you this time.”

“100,000 a month is already a friendly price, isn’t that considered helping out?”

“I……”

“Take it, you know I don’t need the money.”

Jiang Youxi: “…………”

Fine, she shouldn’t have humiliated herself.

He Zhuo did arrange this matter very well. Not only was the money quite generous, but he also strictly stipulated that the people in the club must prepare the ingredients in advance before Jiang Youxi came to cook, so that she could just cook them as soon as she arrived.

Everyone readily accepted the rule and was very enthusiastic about preparing the ingredients each time.

A week passed just like that.

During this week, everyone cooperated perfectly. Jiang Youxi would also research new cuisines in advance and try her best to cook according to their standards as trainers, so that they could eat clean, healthy, and nutritionally balanced food.

In just one week, everyone was instantly captivated by Jiang Youxi’s culinary skills. Every day, the club was filled with laughter and joy, and everyone was generous with their praise for Jiang Youxi.

Jiang Youxi enjoyed spending time with them every day and had a lot of fun cooking.

During their casual conversation, they learned that Jiang Youxi was a medical student, and one by one they came over, saying they wanted Jiang Youxi to take their pulses, treat their illnesses, and perform bone setting.

Jiang Youxi tried to explain that she didn’t know traditional Chinese medicine or bone setting, but they kept talking and making a lot of noise, so she didn’t get a chance to speak.

It’s raining today, so the guys at the club aren’t training. With so much free time, they’ve started chatting and gossiping around Jiang Youxi.

He Zhuo was handling official business in his study on the second floor when the sounds outside, like cicadas chirping incessantly, filled the air.

Xie Zhao happened to bring the club’s monthly report to him for review.

What’s going on downstairs? It’s so noisy.

“Brother Zhuo, don’t you know? Junior Sister Youxi is so popular lately. Qu Sheng, Qi Liang, and the others are chatting with her every day. They’ve stopped training and reading books, and they’re just hanging around Junior Sister Youxi all day long,” Xie Zhao clicked his tongue twice. “Junior Sister Youxi is so cute and pretty, I bet she’ll be snatched away by those guys soon!”

He Zhuo looked up at him, his eyes sharp as knives, quite frightening.

Xie Zhao chuckled, “It’s no use glaring at me. If you don’t leave soon, all the possibilities I mentioned will probably come true very soon.”

He Zhuo threw the report at him: “Get out.”

“…”

Xie Zhao shrugged, took the report, and left.

He Zhuo continued working, but laughter continued to come from outside.

He Zhuo threw down his pen, got up, and left the study.

“Little sister Youxi, I haven’t been sleeping well lately, can you please help me figure out what’s wrong?”

“Okay, let me see.”

“Little sister Youxi, I don’t know why, but my wrist has been a bit sore lately. Could you take a look at it for me?”

“Okay, I’ll read his and then yours.”

“Little sister Youxi, I didn’t know you could do acupuncture! You’re amazing!”

“I learned acupuncture from the pharmacy manager I work part-time. I’ve only been learning for two months, so I’m still a bit rusty.” Jiang Youxi felt it was irresponsible and put the needles away. “Forget it, it’s a small matter if I hurt you, but if I cripple you, I’ll be in big trouble. I’ll wait until I’m more skilled before I start treating you.”

Store Manager Wang is quite fond of traditional Chinese medicine. He studied under an experienced TCM doctor for several years and even obtained relevant certifications. He can answer some basic questions about TCM.

Seeing that his acupuncture was very effective last time, Jiang Youxi became interested and took the initiative to learn from him for a while.

Who do you usually practice with?

“What’s wrong with me?”

“It’s alright!” Qi Liang said nonchalantly. “If you’re not afraid of the pain, what am I, a grown man, afraid of? Go ahead and get it done.”

“Yes, Old Qi is thick-skinned and won’t feel any pain if you prick him. Youxi, go ahead and prick him! Prick him until he’s covered in thorns, and he definitely won’t make a sound!”

“Hey, what are you two doing? Youxi is here to cook for you, not to give you acupuncture, treat your illness, or chat!” Qu Sheng walked over and pulled the group away. “Youxi is one of Brother Zhuo’s people! You guys, go find somewhere cool to stay!”

“Zhuo-ge’s people?” They crowded around, looking curious. “Little sister Youxi, are you with Zhuo-ge?”

“No, we…”

“I never expected this! So you two were secretly together all along? No wonder you agreed so readily to come and cook for us, it’s because Brother Zhuo is here!”

“Yeah! Oh no! We’ve talked to you so much these past few days, is Brother Zhuo jealous?”

Everyone was speculating and expressing their curiosity, but Jiang Youxi couldn’t get a word in edgewise.

“Alright, all of you shut up! See what you’re capable of! Get back to training! Otherwise you’ll be…”

“Holy crap! Brother Zhuo!”

As soon as he said that, everyone turned to look behind them.

He Zhuo was standing behind, his face gloomy.

“Is training all finished?”

“N-no!”

Everyone quickly got up and ran.

In the blink of an eye, only the two of them remained in the entire large hall.

Jiang Youxi immediately got up and walked over, holding out her hand: “Here, take this.”

“What is that?”

“Squeezing the ball can relieve stress when you’re tired from work.”

He Zhuo picked it up and looked at it, his eyes narrowing slightly: “A rabbit?”

“Yes, isn’t it cute?”

“It is quite cute.”

“Does it feel good to squeeze?”

He Zhuo reached out and pinched her little cheek: “You’re not as good as me.”

“Really? Okay, then you can pinch me!” The little girl tilted her head up, brought her face close to his, and generously let him pinch her.

He Zhuo’s eyes froze for a moment.

She leaned very close, and He Zhuo could clearly see the fine hairs on her face.

Her skin was pink and smooth, like a finely carved white jade rabbit.

He Zhuo pinched her chin and gently scratched it.

The movements were gentle, like stroking a kitten.

“How are you feeling? Are you getting used to it?”

“Not bad. The dishes were prepared in advance, so I just came over and cooked them. It was very easy.” Jiang Youxi put her hands behind her back and couldn’t help but rub her cheek against his hand, like a kitten being petted comfortably, with a look of contentment. “But I have to say, your club has a lot of handsome guys. You could start an entertainment company.”

He Zhuo paused, a hint of jealousy in his expression: “Handsome, isn’t he?”

“Yes! Everyone’s handsome. Not only are they good drivers, but they also have great personalities. It’s so much fun chatting with them.”

“More handsome than me?”

Jiang Youxi smiled and shook her head: “No, not at all.”

Do you think I’m handsome?

“You’re the campus heartthrob elected by tens of thousands of teachers and students at Bojiang University! He’s universally acknowledged! Aren’t you handsome?!”

This guy really has no idea what he looks like!

“I don’t need public recognition, I only need your recognition.”

“ah?”

“For you.”

Jiang Youxi understood instantly.

So this is where they were waiting for her approval!

Jiang Youxi wrapped her hands around his, rubbed them against her face, and smiled, her eyes crinkling: “In my heart, Brother He Zhuo is the most handsome!”

He Zhuo looked at her intently.

“Why are you looking at me like that…”

Before Jiang Youxi could finish speaking, her wrist was suddenly grabbed and pulled hard.

She bumped right into the man’s arms.

My chin was pinched and forcibly lifted.

The man lowered his head, his thin lips landing precisely—
