In addition, he did not appear to be too well when everyone saw him downstairs just now.

Everyone’s speculation was not for nothing.

Nian Xiaomu held onto her food tray and headed towards a corner seat in the employees’ cafeteria.

She found an empty seat and sat down.

She was wondering if Yu Yuehan was really sick as she put a spoonful of rice into her mouth.

Even though he looked tall and strong and appeared to have the whole world under his control, he was actually akin to a stubborn kid in private and was less competent in taking care of himself than she was.

He had a truckload of habits too.

For example, not having his meals on time—he would forget to have his meals whenever he got busy with his work.

Another example, refusing his medicine when he caught the flu—no matter how serious it was, he would endure it and even insisted that the less medicine he consumed, the stronger his immunity would get.

Bullsh*t!

He would have succumbed to his illness before his immunity could get stronger.

As Nian Xiaomu cursed silently in her heart, she put another spoonful of rice into her mouth.

She ate the two spoonfuls without properly tasting her food.

Even though she was engrossed at the scoldings, she still could not help it and got worried about him.

Had he eaten his meal yet?

What about Xiao Liuliu?

Xiao Liuliu did not see her around when she woke up. Did she head to the kindergarten obediently, or did she stay at home to accompany the sick Yu Yuehan?

If Xiao Liuliu stayed at home as well, were both father and daughter currently sitting beside each other pitifully, just to get a sense of warmth from the other party?…

Without knowing, a woman has got an astonishing imagination.

She decided not to let her thoughts go wild, her brain could produce another whole new world on its own.

Furthermore, they were thoughts that could get someone feeling even more depressed the more they thought of them.

In the end, Nian Xiaomu only ate a few mouthfuls of her lunch. Her entire heart was filled with concern for a particular someone who had gotten ill, so ill that he could not come to the office…

This kind of thing had never happened since she had entered the Yu Corporation to work.

With documents in her hand, the secretary walked into her office and inquired, “Manager Nian, all the documents are prepared. Are we starting the regular meeting as usual at 3 p.m.?”

Nian Xiaomu thought of the sick Yu Yuehan and hesitated. Then, she opened her mouth and replied, “Bring it forward to 2 p.m., I have something on today and I want to knock off early in the afternoon.”

“Okay.” The secretary did not probe further. With the documents in her hand, she turned around and proceeded to update the other colleagues.

Nian Xiaomu was the only person left in the manager’s room. Holding onto her cell phone, she had wanted to call Yu Yuehan many times but could not muster up the courage to do it.

In the end, she called the assistant, but the call was not answered.

After continuously trying, the assistant finally picked up the call.

However, there was a lot of intermittent noise on the other end of the phone. He seemed to be in a place with bad reception.

The assistant was a little taken aback when he heard that she had called to inquire about Yu Yuehan’s condition. Just after he replied with, “Young Master Han is indeed not feeling very well” the call was cut off.

And so, the “click” sound was the only sound that remained on Nian Xiaomu’s cell phone.

Nian Xiaomu could no longer call through when she attempted it again.

However, the assistant’s sentence seemed to have confirmed her speculation and brain wrecking moments.

In an instant, the sight of him lying on the bed pitifully appeared in her mind; without his assistant around, he appeared to be in a state of distress as no one was there to pour him a cup of water when he was feeling thirsty… All of a sudden, her heart felt tightly wrenched!

Immediately, she thought of something and slapped her forehead forcefully.

What nonsense, the butler of the Yu Family villa was so competent in his job that no one as good as him could be found a hundred miles away. How could Yu Yuehan not have anyone to take care of him?

She didn’t have to worry about him.

Even though this thought occurred to her, she still could not put her mind to rest without personally seeing that he was indeed fine.

The moment the regular meeting ended at 4 p.m, she packed her documents away and told the secretary to help her apply for an emergency leave as she would be knocking off early from work.
