Chapter 205: Please Appreciate the Boss’ Love
“You want it?” Huang Huayu’s eyes widened.
Following that, the others said, “this isn’t for young ladies!”
...Of course, Su Ji knew. “Actually, I’m buying this for a friend of mine.”
It sounded like she made that up.
Of course, she really did have a “friend”, but no one could guess who she was referring to!
Hearing that Huang Huayu grabbed a small handful of the herbs. “In that case, I’ll give you some for free!”
Su Ji thanked him sincerely, “thank you, Assistant Director Huang.”
At noon, Su Ji finished filming her scenes and Wang Zhicheng drove her home.
After that, she had no more scenes for the week.
On the way back, Su Ji received a call from Shen Mu.
It was very strange because he didn’t have anything important to tell her.
She and Shen Mu did not seem to be close enough to talk on the phone about their trivial things.
As Shen Mu spoke, he suddenly shouted to another person, “Xiao Ma? I’m preparing some medicine for the boss!”
His voice was so loud that Su Ji suspected that Xiao Ma was standing a kilometer away from him.
Su Ji pulled the phone away from her ear for a few seconds before putting it back. “Since you’re busy, why don’t we talk later?”
“Wait!” Shen Mu said, “I have more interesting things to tell you…”
“…”
This time, Shen Mu did not say much before he suddenly said in shock, “boss! You have a fever of 38.7 degrees, why are you still working?”
Su Ji paused for a moment. This time, she heard him.
“You said your boss has a fever? 38.7 degrees is quite high.”
In the staff lounge, Shen Mu spoke to the air, ignoring the shocked eyes of his colleagues passing by. “Oh, you heard that? He didn’t want you to worry, so he specifically told me not to tell you. Please don’t say that I said it!”
The boss had been acting weird during the morning meeting and had just taken his temperature. He had a fever of 38.7 degrees.
How could he continue working like this?
As his personal assistant, Shen Mu had to let Ms. Su know about this and get him under control!
Su Ji replied, “oh, what are his symptoms now? Is he coughing?”
“Yes, and he has no appetite. He didn’t eat anything today except for the Chinese medicine that he’s been taking.”
Su Ji recalled that the window in Pei Huai’s room had been left open the whole time, and she knew why he had a fever. “How’s his energy level?”
“He seems fine,” Shen Mu said subconsciously, and then immediately added, “but I think he is pretending!”
Su Ji was just about to brew some medicine for him, so that she could make him cold medicine as well. “I’ll bring him some medicine later. Since he’s sick, he shouldn’t stay in the company for too long. You should persuade him to come back early in the afternoon.”
Shen Mu’s voice brightened. “Okay, Ms. Su!”
After hanging up the phone, Su Ji asked Wang Zhicheng to make a detour to the pharmacy to get a few more medicines before going home.
Aunt Wu opened the door for her. As soon as she entered, she passed on Xu Mingzhi’s words. She had gone to the company because Bill was coming to China and would be busy until very late tonight. So, she told Su Ji not to wait for her and to have dinner early.
After reporting that, she brought out a bowl of black-bone chicken ginseng soup with a smile. “Miss, it’s cold today. Drink some ginseng soup to warm your body.”
It smelled very good. Su Ji took a sip, and her eyes swept to her backpack that had the medicine. Suddenly, she had an idea. “Aunt Wu, do you think that medicinal cuisine can also be made into this kind of delicious dish? ”
She remembered that she had also had bird’s nest soup at the Su family’s house. It tasted as good as the ginseng soup, but at the same time, it was also nutritious.
Aunt Wu smiled. “Of course. You can add different ingredients according to the medicinal recipe. By brewing them together, you can combine the bitterness of the medicinal herbs with the other ingredients and maybe even have a different flavor.”
Su Ji loved creative things like this. After thinking about it, she gulped down the ginseng soup and carried a bag of medicinal herbs to the kitchen.
Aunt Wu was confused at first, but when she saw Su Ji cutting and chopping in the kitchen, she understood.
Aunt Wu revealed a knowing smile. She was making this so mysteriously while madam was not around. It must be a gift for Mr. Pei.
The last time Mr. Pei came to visit, she could see that they were a perfect match.
Aunt Wu went upstairs to do the housework for two hours. When she went downstairs again, Su Ji was still busy in the kitchen.
Aunt Wu leaned over with a smile. “Whoever marries you in the future will be so happy.”
Her sincere blessings stopped abruptly when she saw the green paste in Su Ji’s pot.
Normally, if this pot of liquid appeared in an anime, it would contain human eyes, bat wings, and toads.
The standard formula of witches!
However, Su Ji’s mood was very good even though she was making such a terrifying thing. She even hummed a song.
There were treasures inside anyway!
She didn’t know if the taste of the ingredients was compatible, but the herbs were definitely compatible.
Aunt Wu was silent for a while. She was afraid to ruin the mood, so she quickly talked about something else.
She forced herself to take a look inside. “Wow, there are a lot of ingredients inside. There’s even wood ear fungus…”
“Wood ear fungus?” Su Ji was puzzled for a second before she reacted. Ah, that’s snow fungus. Maybe it’s been boiled for a long time…”
“…”
What kind of ingredients could dye the snow fungus black?!
Immediately after, Aunt Wu saw a few oval-shaped black things that looked like small fat worms. Aunt Wu, who had a keen eye, immediately understood. “Miss, are those red dates ?”
“No,” Su Ji said.
It was the main ingredient of the dish, the “dragon-raising-its-head” herb.
Aunt Wu silently mourned for Mr. Pei for three seconds.
She believed that Mr. Pei would mutate after drinking this.
However, she still encouraged her. “Mr. Pei will definitely be touched…”
Su Ji replied, “I’m also afraid that if I’m too good, he won’t be able to leave me after we break up.”
Aunt Wu’s mouth twitched
Young miss! Tell me you’re not serious!
The pot of medicine was boiled until night time. Su Ji watched from the side, stirring occasionally, afraid that it would overcook and affect the taste.
Finally, after all the ingredients had been boiled and the essence had been combined into the soup, Su Ji poured the soup into a thermos and brought it to the house next door.
