When Aunt Lin heard Uncle Lin’s explanation, she was a little worried. She thought that today’s situation was indeed too abnormal. She turned around and wanted to go upstairs to see Wen Xi. However, just as she lifted her foot, she realized that Chen Ze was already sitting on the chair behind them. He was holding the soy milk she had just made in his hand and was frowning slightly!

“I usually only drink coffee in the morning. Didn’t Wen Xi tell you?”

When she heard Chen Ze’s cold voice, Aunt Lin’s body stiffened. She stuttered, “Ah? I’m sorry, Young Master, I really didn’t know because Young Lady usually does these things. I apologize, I’ll change it immediately!”

Chen Ze let out a sigh when he heard that. He seemed to be a little impatient as he put down the glass in his hand and looked up at Aunt Lin, saying, “No, I don’t have time to wait for you.”

He thought for a moment after he said that and glanced at the stairs on the second floor. When he didn’t see the familiar figure, he asked in confusion, “Where’s Wen Xi? Is she still sleeping?”

Aunt Lin and Uncle Lin exchanged strange looks between each other before they answered, “Young Lady hasn’t come down yet this morning. I was just about to go up and see her.”

Normally, it would be impossible for Chen Ze to take the initiative to ask about Wen Xi’s whereabouts, as usually at this time, Wen Xi would be around him, helping him make the most suitable breakfast, helping him prepare black coffee that was only 7% hot without sugar, helping him pick out the time for work, helping him deal with all the trivial things that he did not care about but could affect his state of mind and mood for the whole day.

After listening to Aunt Lin’s words, the frown between Chen Ze’s brows deepened. He did not ask anything else and only casually ate a few mouthfuls of the not-so-delicious seafood porridge. After taking two pieces of bread, he called Uncle Lin and left.

He didn’t care about Wen Xi, who didn’t show up on time today and had puzzled and surprised many people. As usual, he didn’t care about her presence. He simply enjoyed the quality of life she handled for him.

However, starting from today was the official end of his refined life, starting with the absent cup of black coffee and the breakfast he didn’t enjoy.

From now on, Wen Xi’s life would no longer revolve around Chen Ze. Just when he was still busy disapproving everything, Wen Xi had already accumulated enough disappointment and was slowly fading out of his life.

It was only about ten minutes after Chen Ze left that Wen Xi slowly walked down from the second floor. She had light makeup on her face and looked good. She didn’t look similar at all to Uncle Lin’s prior guess that she was sick.

Aunt Lin looked at her worriedly. When she didn’t find anything unusual, she reported in a gentle voice, “Young Master has already finished his breakfast and left. Young Lady, did you not rest well last night? Young Master is not in a good mood because he couldn’t drink the coffee you usually brew! Moreover, Young Master even took the initiative to ask about you just now.”

Wen Xi was sitting at the dining table, eating porridge with a spoon in her hand. She heard Aunt Lin’s report, but she did not care. She only gave a faint “Oh” and did not say anything more, as if the breakfast in front of her was more important than Chen Ze.

The smile on Aunt Lin’s face froze when she saw that Wen Xi didn’t react. She was sensitive enough to notice that something was wrong with her Young Lady. She then forced a smile and asked carefully, “Young Lady, are you feeling unwell? Are you able to work today?”

After taking a sip of the hot soy milk, Wen Xi replied without any reaction, “Of course I’m going.”

“But it’s almost 8 o’clock now. If you don’t leave now, you’ll really be late.” Aunt Lin tried to remind her.

Knowing that Aunt Lin was a good person, Wen Xi would not take revenge on everyone in the Chen family just because of Chen Ze.

Hearing Aunt Lin’s probing tone, she looked up and chuckled at her. She replied gently, “I understand, Aunt Lin. Please help me inform the driver to get my car out. I’ll be driving it to work later!”
