However, while the problem with her face was solved, her clothes were another matter.
Even though they were dating now, Lu Yunque didn’t think he could just change her clothes without Yun Zijin’s consent.
In the end, Lu Yunque went out and called a young maid to come in.
"Could you please help her wash up and change into a clean set of pajamas?"
"Of course, Mr. Lu."
Ever since she saw Lu Yunque carrying Yun Zijin out of the car, the young maid had been internally screaming like a groundhog.
’These days, you have to ship a real-life couple!’
Now that she’d been personally summoned by Lu Yunque to change Yun Zijin’s clothes, the young maid’s mind had already cooked up a 100,000-word story.
On the outside, however, she remained perfectly calm, betraying no hint of her inner thoughts.
"I’ll be outside. You... just come get me when you’re done."
After saying that, Lu Yunque rubbed his nose, then quickly left Yun Zijin’s room, not forgetting to pull the door shut behind him.
Just then, Wang Minli came out of the kitchen carrying a bowl of sobering-up soup. "Mr. Lu, how is the Miss?"
"The maid is helping her change. Could I trouble you to wait a moment?"
Lu Yunque said, a little awkwardly, upon seeing the sobering-up soup in Wang Minli’s hands.
Wang Minli understood immediately. ’The Miss’s boyfriend is shy.’
’His reaction is decent. It proves he isn’t some seasoned playboy.’
Lu Yunque had no idea that his bashful behavior had unknowingly left a good impression on Yun Zijin’s housekeeper.
"Alright. Please, have a seat, Mr. Lu. It might take the maid a while to help the Miss change."
’Before putting on clean clothes, she’ll definitely have to give Miss Zijin a proper wipe-down. Who knows how long that step alone will take.’
Wang Minli took the sobering-up soup back to the kitchen and put it on low heat to keep it warm, so it wouldn’t be cold by the time the maid was finished.
Lu Yunque wasn’t sure what "a while" meant, but there was no way he could just go home now.
He wouldn’t be able to rest easy until he saw Yun Zijin sleeping peacefully.
The maid was in the room with Yun Zijin for nearly half an hour before Lu Yunque finally heard the door open.
The young maid emerged holding the clothes Yun Zijin had changed out of, gave Lu Yunque a nod, and headed for the laundry room.
Lu Yunque got up from the sofa and walked toward Yun Zijin’s room. At the same time, Wang Minli went back to the kitchen and brought out the sobering-up soup.
"Let me take that."
The soup had been kept warm and was still hot. Lu Yunque was worried Wang Minli might spill it.
Wang Minli didn’t try to compete with Lu Yunque for the chance to take care of Yun Zijin, simply handing the tray over to him.
"I may have made a bit too much. You don’t have to make her drink all of it, Mr. Lu."
’She didn’t even stir when the maid was changing her clothes, so I doubt feeding her the soup will wake her up either.’
Lu Yunque nodded to show he understood.
He carefully carried the soup into Yun Zijin’s room and placed the tray on the nightstand. Then, he gently propped her up higher on the pillows to make it easier to feed her.
But Yun Zijin, who had slept through having her makeup removed, face washed, skincare applied, and clothes changed, actually frowned and turned her head away the moment Lu Yunque brought the spoonful of soup to her lips. She clearly didn’t want to drink it.
"Come on, be good. Drink the soup, or your head will hurt tomorrow."
If she had a headache then, she would be the one suffering, but his heart would be the one aching for her.
But Yun Zijin truly hated the taste of the soup. Even with Lu Yunque’s warning about a headache, she refused to drink.
After a long struggle, Lu Yunque finally managed to get a single mouthful into her.
And that one mouthful was enough to make Yun Zijin’s eyes flutter open.
Having just woken up, and still under the influence of alcohol, Yun Zijin was completely disoriented.
"Awake?"
