When the Green Tea Female Side Character Wants to Ridicule the Male Lead - Chapter 5
Chapter 5
Ruan Chacha deliberately applied some foundation to conceal her glossy and rosy lips, making her complexion appear paler.
Uncle Xing, seeing that her condition hadn’t improved, sighed inwardly. “Madam, would you like to have a Western or Chinese breakfast?”
Ruan Chacha feigned disinterest. “Either is fine, just something casual.” However, her gaze kept drifting toward the door, revealing a deep sense of worry. This time, her concern was genuine. Where had Dugu Mohan gone? He hadn’t returned home for so many days. How could she increase her green tea value if he didn’t come back? This was truly distressing.
The servants and the butler could all see that Madam was deeply concerned about the master. Their eyes frequently turned toward the main entrance, a scenario where affection was being mistaken for indifference.
After eating a few bites of breakfast, Ruan Chacha asked the butler, “Uncle Xing, has Mohan called back these days?”
Uncle Xing couldn’t bear to look into Ruan Chacha’s eyes, filled with anticipation. “Madam, the master hasn’t called back. It’s probably because he’s too busy with work.”
Ruan Chacha paused her chopsticks, her emotions downcast. “Oh.” She fell silent.
Why would the company be so busy? Probably chasing after the female lead. Perfect, 1000 points! If he didn’t return for half a month, how would she increase her green tea value?
Ruan Chacha was unaware that she had misunderstood Dugu Mohan this time. He had been staying in the office these days, and, of course, the CEO’s office included a bed and toiletries.
Ruan Chacha decided to take the initiative. Although the life of a salted fish was good, it wouldn’t last forever. Soon, she would die a miserable death. What was the use of being so comfortable? It was better to complete the green tea value sooner so she could rest easily.
“Uncle Xing, I… I miss Mohan. Can I go find him?” She asked the butler in a soft and helpless tone.
The butler sighed silently. Madame had changed. In the past, she wouldn’t have been so cautious. Given her temper before, she would have already charged into the company to find the master, not asked hesitantly.
“Madam, why not wait for the master to come back? He should be returning in these two days,” the butler suggested, considering the approaching date when they would return to the old residence.
If Madam went to find the master herself, there would undoubtedly be a scene in the office. Previously, this might not have been a problem. At least Madam’s temperament was fiery, and they were more worried about the Master.
Now, the butler couldn’t help but glance at Ruan Chacha. With her pale complexion and bandaged legs, she seemed fragile. The butler shook his head, refusing to agree to Ruan Chacha going alone.
Ruan Chacha insisted, “Uncle Xing, let the driver take me. If you’re not at ease, find someone to accompany me. I… I miss Mohan too much.” She wanted to disgust him, to increase her green tea value after all. He was the one who decided her life and death.
Seeing her insistence, the butler could only agree. “Alright, but remember to keep your distance from the master. If he wants to use force, call for help. Don’t let the Master lay a hand on you willingly.” The butler was still worried about this.
Ruan Chacha didn’t expect her plan to be so successful. The negative impression of the male lead has deeply influenced the butler. Ah, hahaha… feels great! Let him go crazy; let him be a wolf!
Wearing a wry smile on her face, but with a look of pretended unease, she avoided the butler’s gaze. “Uncle Xing, Brother Mohan won’t lay a hand on me. It’s my fault. I made a mistake, and Brother Mohan corrected me. I hope Uncle Xing won’t see Brother Mohan in a bad light.” She pretended so well that the little devil inside her was celebrating joyfully.
The butler was almost moved to tears by the love the madam showed to the master. The master really shouldn’t treat the madam like this.
The servants, with teary eyes, realized this was what love is…
Ruan Chacha truly maximized the use of the green tea system. Of course, this is just the beginning; let the male lead take the bait!
The butler arranged for a servant to assist Ruan Chacha in going to the company. When they arrived at the company building, Ruan Chacha looked up at the towering structure.
Indeed, it was the richest conglomerate in the novel, and the building had an imposing presence.
Ruan Chacha, supported by the servant, entered the building. As soon as she stepped in, the bustling lobby fell silent.
Feeling confused, Ruan Chacha thought of the original owner’s hot-tempered personality. Based on the reactions of the receptionists and others, it seemed the original owner had caused quite a scene here many times.
Perplexed, Ruan Chacha was about to enter the elevator when she was stopped by the receptionist.
“Madam, you… can’t go up yet.” The receptionist trembled, fearing Ruan Chacha’s anger.
Ruan Chacha had a hundred questions in her mind. “What’s going on?”
The receptionist, relieved that Ruan Chacha didn’t seem angry, explained, “It’s the CEO’s orders. He said… if it’s you, you have to wait for his permission to go up.” The CEO had given this instruction a while ago, and perhaps the madam had forgotten.
Ruan Chacha was about to nod in agreement when someone coming out of the elevator interrupted her.
“Chacha? Why are you here?” Han Annan was changing the bandages for Dugu Mohan, and his hands were stained with blood. He noticed Ruan Chacha and was surprised.
Ruan Chacha, with a faint, awkward smile, lowered her head. It took her a few seconds to react—oh, it’s the doctor who treated her foot injury.
“I… I’m here to see Brother Mohan.” Ruan Chacha was not very familiar with Han Annan, only having met him briefly. She hesitated before realizing it was a perfect opportunity.
“That’s great. Go up quickly; the elevator just arrived.” Han Annan stepped aside to let Ruan Chacha enter.
Ruan Chacha felt a bit embarrassed and hesitated. “But I can’t go up.”
Han Annan was puzzled. “Why?” Who could stop her? Wasn’t she usually arrogant and domineering?
The servant felt bitter for Ruan Chacha. “The master said that the madam needs his permission to go up.” The master was really going too far. The madam, being the CEO’s wife and deeply in love with him, deserved better treatment. She would definitely report this to Uncle Xing later.
Han Annan knew about this, but what surprised him was when Ruan Chacha obtained the master’s permission? Yet she entered without any issue.
Ruan Chacha, sensing Han Annan’s continuous scrutiny, smiled at him with her pale face.
“I’m fine. It’s better this way. To avoid inconveniencing Brother Mohan and them. It wouldn’t be good if we disturbed them.” Ruan Chacha weakly leaned on the servant, seemingly recalling some unpleasant scenes, and paled another degree.
With the word “them,” Han Annan, the receptionist, and the servant were all stunned. Was it the meaning they had in mind?
Ruan Chacha, however, bit her pallid lips, lowered her head, and held her fingers tightly without saying a word. Little did they know that even if she couldn’t go up, she could still make a move against them.
Han Annan looked at Ruan Chacha with a serious expression. “You can go up. He should be done with the meeting. Be careful with your foot; try not to move too much.”
Ruan Chacha was momentarily stunned, and her expression instantly turned joyful. Oh, big brother, oh big brother, you’re truly her divine helper!
Seeing her eyes suddenly light up, Han Annan was surprised for a moment. Without saying anything else, Ruan Chacha’s love for Dugu Mohan was real. However, could it be that Dugu Mohan was truly hiding his affection for her?
