Chapter 45 The Huge Sum of Money Vanished

[Lift upwards, sway left and right, lift, sway...]

Yunyang woke up in a state of extreme comfort.

The excruciating cramping pain in my lower abdomen had miraculously disappeared.

A warm, dry hand was kneading her lower abdomen with a very regular rhythm, neither too light nor too heavy, through the fabric of her sweatshirt.

etc……

Is that Xiaoting's voice?

Yun Yang jolted awake and suddenly opened her eyes.

It was pitch black before my eyes, so dark that I couldn't see my own hand in front of my face.

If it weren't for that familiar male voice still playing on repeat in her head, she swear she would have screamed and jumped out of bed right now, giving the other person a good beating.

She spoke cautiously, her voice hoarse from just waking up: "Sir, why aren't the lights on? Aren't you afraid of the dark?"

In the darkness, the large hand that was still covering her stomach suddenly froze, then quickly withdrew.

Immediately afterwards, she heard rustling sounds, as if someone had gotten up from beside the bed. The footsteps were steady, but her mind was in turmoil.

[Tch, you heartless bastard! You're just worried about the light shining on you and disturbing your sleep!]

Who says I'm afraid of the dark! I've said it so many times! I have PTSD! I'm afraid of sudden power outages! Understand?!

Oh, I forgot, I can't speak, and she can't hear me.

[Hmph, she has no idea I've been watching over her here all afternoon, from dawn till dusk...]

"Clatter".

The magnificent crystal chandelier overhead lit up in response.

Yun Yang squinted at the blinding light, and it took her a while to adjust before she could see the scene before her clearly.

She was actually lying on Fu Xiaoting's huge bed, big enough to fit five of her!

Fu Xiaoting stood by the bed, looking down at her with his usual expressionless, icy face.

Yun Yang panicked for a moment, and without caring whether her stomach was still comfortable or not, she threw off the covers and climbed out of bed.

"Thank you, sir. I'm alright now. I'll be going now!"

She had just run to the door, and before her hand even touched the doorknob, she suddenly remembered what she had come there for.

That document waiting to be signed and the bonus paid out!

She steeled herself and turned around, only to meet Fu Xiaoting's unfathomable black eyes.

He was holding a teacup, and it looked like if she hadn't turned around for a second, the cup would have been destroyed at her feet.

What's the panic? You've tested me before!

[Ha, that was the first time a woman had ever touched me!]

I'm so angry! I'm so angry!!!

Yun Yang: "..."

Who told your shit gun to jam! That wasn't touching, it was massaging!

She dared not mention the documents again, and quickly lowered her head, asking respectfully, "Sir, is there anything else you need?"

Fu Xiaoting withdrew a teacup.

Then, she slowly and deliberately took off the gold camellia hair tie she was wearing on her wrist.

He walked up to Yunyang.

With a "smack," it landed on Yun Yang's palm.

Yunyang looked down.

It's exactly the same as the one I gave her before.

Are these expensive hair ties sold by the bundle?

Yun Yang didn't think much of it, assuming that Fu Xiaoting disliked her messy hair and was afraid that if she walked out of his room like this, the servants would gossip.

After all, isn't that how it's always portrayed in novels? If a woman comes out of a man's room with her hair all messy, she's definitely up to no good.

She quickly re-tied her hair into a high ponytail with a hair tie, carefully straightened her wrinkled hoodie, then looked up at Fu Xiaoting, waiting for his next instructions.

Fu Xiaoting's inner thoughts almost set the ceiling on fire.

【angry! 】

I'm so angry!

She saw this hair tie and still didn't know why I was angry!

Yun Yang was completely dumbfounded.

What's wrong with posting on social media?

Did you pinch the hair on his wrist?

That shouldn't be the case. It works great and doesn't pull my hair at all.

How do we break this deadlock?

Can someone teach me?

Her mind raced, and she finally remembered the pork ribs.

Of all things under heaven, eating is the most important.

She cautiously probed, "Sir, I haven't made the spare ribs I promised you yet. How about... I go make them now?"

Fu Xiaoting's inner volcano erupted instantly.

[Eat, eat, eat! All you ever think about is food! What else is on your mind besides eating?! Idiot!]

Yun Yang: "..."

Right now, she's not thinking about ribs, she's thinking about a knife.

But she still forced a professional smile and persistently asked, "Sir, how about sweet and sour?"

Fu Xiaoting sighed heavily, forcefully, and dramatically in his heart, his helplessness as if he were facing a three-year-old intellectually disabled child.

Yun Yang was completely speechless, and he had no choice but to go for it!

Fu Xiaoting picked up a book from the table, didn't even look at it, and stuffed it into Yun Yang's arms. Then he waved his hand impatiently, gesturing for her to leave.

[Let's go, hurry up, this is so annoying!]

Yunyang, clutching the book, rushed out of the room as if fleeing.

She ran back to the corridor in one breath, closed the door, and then looked down at the book in her arms.

The cover features the words "Postpartum Care of Sows" in large gold lettering.

Yun Yang: "?"

I randomly turned to a page.

Abdominal massage techniques: Lift upwards, sway left and right, lift, sway...

Yun Yang: "..."

Well done, Xiaoting!

You're the sow! Your whole family are sows!

Yun Yang stormed back to her room on the third floor. Just as she slammed her book on the table, her phone rang.

It's a text message confirming that my salary has been deposited into my account.

She clicked on it and her eyes widened instantly.

[A deposit of 110,000.00 yuan has been made into your savings card account ending in XXXX.]

110,000!

Before she could even feel happy, the staff's group chat had already exploded with excitement. Everyone was tagging her like crazy, thanking the cloud housekeeper for serving the people and helping them secure an unprecedentedly huge bonus.

Yun Yang's anger was instantly extinguished by this huge sum of money.

It seems Xiaoting did sign the document after all.

Never mind, Xiaoting is really good. Xiaoting isn't a sow.

With money in her account, she could finally shop online!

Although we lack nothing now, spending money is no longer about basic needs, but about curing unhappiness.

The shopping app just hasn't been opened yet.

The phone screen suddenly went black, and then a line of cold, small black text appeared in the center.

To prevent NPCs from escaping the mission location, all wages will be temporarily held by the system and distributed upon completion of the mission.

The next second, she received a text message from the bank that all the 110,000 yuan she had saved in her account had been withdrawn.

Yun Yang: "!"

Startled, she jerked open the wardrobe and pulled out the cash and gold bars that Fu Xiaoting had given her, as well as Shen Mingyue's jewelry, from her thermal pants.

Thank goodness, these are still here!

You feel most secure when you have money in your own hands!

But I'm still so sad.

"110,000! My money! My life!"

Money is not easily blown in by the wind, but it is easily blown away.

...

Early the next morning.

With huge dark circles under her eyes, Yun Yang listlessly made sweet and sour pork ribs in the kitchen.

"Good morning."

Gu Yan walked in carrying a cup of coffee, his face still bearing his signature gentle and refined smile.

Yunyang: "It broke this morning."

What can be good when a huge sum of money that was within reach has vanished?

Moreover, the system is in Gu Yan's mind, so she really can't laugh when she sees Gu Yan's face now.

Gu Yan noticed her low mood and didn't say anything more, but simply handed her something.

It's that golden camellia hair tie.

"Thank you for yesterday," he said sincerely.

Yun Yang rolled her eyes inwardly.

What's the point of just saying thank you? Let's get real! Like, tell that damn system in your head to give me my money back!

She had just reached out her hand to take the hair tie.

A cold, angry voice suddenly rang out from the kitchen doorway.

[I'm speechless. They've already tied QQ sausages around their necks, why come back here? To tie them on their heads?]

Yun Yang suddenly turned around.

Then she saw Fu Xiaoting in a wheelchair, who had appeared at the door at some point, staring intently at her and Gu Yan, his eyes seeming to spit fire.
