Chapter 512: Epilogue (16)
By the time Chu Nanxi dried his long hair, Li Hannian also simply took a shower, and when the two of them changed their clothes and went downstairs together, the housekeeper was pacing around the room anxiously.
Hearing footsteps on the stairs, the butler hurriedly trotted over to meet him.
"Sir, Miss, just ...... on the news"
Li Hannian spoke in time to interrupt his voice.
"Is breakfast ready?"
"Ready, but ......" The butler had to swallow back the words that came to his lips at the man's threatening gaze, "Both, please!" ”
Chu Nanxi's gaze swept over the butler's face suspiciously, "Is something wrong?" ”
"Nothing is as important as yours!" Li Hannian stretched out his hand and hugged her shoulder, "Okay, let's have breakfast first." ”
Embracing the girl towards the dining room, his gaze fell on the butler's face again.
In desperation, the housekeeper had to follow the door and help the maid prepare breakfast for the two.
Li Hannian held the knife and fork and ate the omelette elegantly, Chu Nanxi thanked him, took the milk cup in his hand, casually glanced at the sideboard, and saw the clock on it, and his brows jumped in surprise.
"Oh my God, it's ten o'clock!" Putting down the bowl, she stood up in a panic, "No, I have to rush to the scene immediately, or I will ......"
The signing time was set at half past ten, and it was still so far from the bookstore that it would take at least forty minutes to get on the road without traffic jams.
The first time she signed the sale, she certainly didn't want to be late.
Damn, how did you forget there's a clock here!
"It's just in time!" Li Hannian raised his eyebrows and reached out to grab her wrist, "Finish the meal first." ”
"You're embarrassed to say that it will take at least forty minutes to get from here to the bookstore, and I'm going to be late now!"
Chu Nanxi glanced at him and withdrew his wrist, blaming this guy, if it weren't for him...... There's no way she's up so late.
"Xixi!" Li Hannian got up and stopped her, "You believe me, I'll send you over as soon as I finish eating." ”
"I know you care about me, or else......" she reached for a sandwich from the table, "I'll take it with me on the road, okay?" ”
Li Hannian was still thinking about how to stop her, and the housekeeper's voice suddenly sounded.
"Ah...... This clock is broken, and the time is not accurate! ”
Chu Nanxi turned his face to look at the housekeeper, and Li Hannian also turned his face.
The butler coughed lightly and looked at his watch pretendedly.
"It's ......" his gaze swept over the time on his watch - 10:32 a.m., "9:31 a.m., probably when I changed the battery earlier, I accidentally set the wrong time!" ”
"Scared the hell out of me!" Chu Nanxi didn't doubt it, walked over again and sat down at the table to eat, took a bite of the sandwich and turned his face to Li Hannian, "By the way, why didn't I see my phone?" ”
"Probably ......," Li Hannian shrugged, "I received the drawer!" ”
Chu Nanxi stopped asking, lowered his face and concentrated on eating, even if it was half past nine, there was not much time.
The housekeeper stood aside, and kept glancing at Li Hannian, what made him strange was that his eyes were about to cramp, but his young master still ignored it, he obviously saw it.
After eating the sandwich and drinking the milk, Chu Nanxi got up and went upstairs to pack his things.
Seeing her go upstairs, the housekeeper immediately came over, "Young master, don't let Miss go to the bookstore, her ......"
"I know!"
Li Hannian interrupted him bluntly.
