Chapter 27 Stop Thinking About Others


    Frustration was evident on his face as it darkened. He rubbed the back of his neck to release some


    tension and slowly said, "Stop thinking about other people and start worrying more about your well -


    being." He looked at her pointedly. "Look at your state right now. You''re weak and you still haven''t


    eaten yet." Crossing his arms together, Kevin''s eyes dropped at the IV needle piercing through the


    back of her hand then back at her. "Are you going to depend on that IV drip for the whole period of your


    pregnancy?"


    He was more talkative than usual which caught Anne off guard as she stared at the very vexed Kevin.


    She would have argued back if he was being a jerk but the way he was acting right then and the way


    he worried about her, although his expression was cold, was new and was kind of pleasant so she let it


    slide.


    ‘But why is he acting like he cares?’ she pondered but just dismissed the thought after finding it


    ridiculous.


    She puffed out her cheeks and let out a breath before shifting her gaze away from his with a frown on


    her face, mumbling, "I''ll try my best to eat. Anne knew that she couldn''t keep on relying on the nutrition


    she was getting from the IV drip throughout the duration of her pregnancy. ''Eating something delicious


    right now sounds appetizing,'' she thought as she tried to pull the IV needle out.


    Since she couldn’t always rely on it, she should stop using it.


    Kevin was shocked, his eyes widening in rm. ''Is this woman crazy?'' he thought before hissing


    angrily. "What are you doing?"


    Kevin immediately grabbed her hand, stopping her from taking the needle out. After seeing her give


    him a weird look, Kevin awkwardly let go of her hand. Clearing his throat he said, "Let it stay for a while


    because you’re still weak. That’s the only thing that’s giving you nutrition right now. I’ll be here until you


    get better."


    "But I want to eat," she grumbled, sulking.


    For the first time in so many days, she felt famished. She knew that once she got out of bed and had a


    full meal, she would definitely devour everything. Just imagining the hot dish and its delicious aroma


    made her salivate.


    "Are you hungry?" Kevin asked. She just nodded absentmindedly which made him raise a brow at how


    strange she was acting. Frowning, he let out a tired sigh before looking at her. "I’ll ask Sam to prepare


    something for you to eat."


    After saying that, Kevin stood up and walked towards the door. Before he left the room, he looked back


    at her with a stern look in his eyes but his voice was gentle. "I''ll go downstairs first then I''lle back


    fast so stay put." Anne was left gaping at the empty spot where Kevin stood before vanishing behind


    the door.


    Anne wondered if she was dreaming as she tried pinching her cheeks. ‘Ouch!’ she groaned as she


    rubbed the sore spot. She felt the stinging sensation on it proving that what just urred indeed really


    happened. ‘Did he eat something weird today?’ she thought suspiciously. ''What''s with the sudden


    drastic change in his personality?'' she pondered on, frowning. ''When did he start caring about me?''


    Anne felt conflicted. She didn''t know what to feel with the way Kevin was acting due to the fact that she


    wasn''t used to it. ''Everything feels so unreal,'' she thought as she shifted her gaze to the window with a


    sad smile on her lips. "If only it was real…" she whispered. She let out a dryugh, thinking how


    pathetic she sounded. She knew that Kevin didn''t belong to her. ''He has already given his heart to


    Cherry,'' she thought dejectedly, closing her eyes to suppress her tears.


    No one was in sight when Kevin went downstairs which puzzled him. ''Where the hell is Sam when I


    need him?'' he thought, frustrated. He started walking aimlessly through the hallway until he saw a


    group of servants having a meeting at the courtyard.


    The vi that they were currently at belonged to his family but it rarely received any visitors. Kevin


    bought the vi because of how quiet the area is.


    Although he seldom came to live there, the ce had everything that needed to ensure afortable


    life.


    And the servants were dutiful to keep everything in order though Kevin had never asked about the vi.


    He smiled at how peaceful the ce was. Also, he was very satisfied with the butler. At least he


    managed the East Mountain Vi well even in his absence.


    Kevin looked around the whole ce but he didn’t see a single sign of Sam anywhere.


    "Sam?" he shouted, frustration present on his voice.


    He called out for his name a few times but to no avail. A servant who was at the courtyard ran over at


    his direction when she heard him. Her face flushed at the sight of Kevin.


    "Young Master, Mr. Sam and Miss Emily are out," she told him shyly, gazing at him nervously.


    "Out?" Kevin frowned as he looked at the little girl pointedly. "Where are they going?"


    The servant lowered her head to dodge his re, nervously thinking of what to answer. Finally, she


    said, "It seems that they went back to Mrs. Anne''s old house to take something."


    The servant vaguely remembered what she heard about Sam and Emily''s conversation so she didn''t


    really know much about it.


    Looking at the fidgeting girl, Kevin just shrugged his shoulder and said, "Okay." Then he turned towards


    the direction of the kitchen.


    If his memory served him right, Sam came homest night with a lot of paper bags in hand and was


    stuck in the kitchen for a while. ‘Maybe he went to the grocery store and bought some food,’ he


    thought.


    After entering the kitchen, he stopped dead in his tracks. ''What should I do first?'' he thought, annoyed.


    He had no idea how to cook or do anything household wise other than working on his investments to


    strengthen hispany.


    He was the next heir to theirpany and the noble young master of the Fu Family to top it off so he


    always had an easy life since childhood to begin with. So being in the kitchen was a new whole


    experience for him, let alone cooking.


    He looked around and frowned.


    Seeing the perplexed expression on Kevin’s face, the servant behind him reluctantly asked, "Are you


    hungry, Young Master?"


    Although he looked charming, he really had a very bad temper when he got annoyed. Everyone in the


    vi knew his temper well so when they saw any signs that he was about to do something, they would


    immediate asked what he needed. They were afraid of getting fired if they didn''t serve him well.


    There were two kitchens in the vi. One was a private kitchen and the other was a ce for the chefs


    to cook their daily meals.


    Kevin was at the private kitchen not knowing that there were various dishes that were already cooked


    on the other kitchen for him to enjoy.


    His face darkened as he grumbled, "No." Frustrated, he raised his hand and touched his nose with his


    slender index finger to repress his irritation. "Can you cook?"


    "What?" the little girl gaped before snapping from her astonishment. The servant nodded, still


    confused. "Yes I can, Young Master."


    "That’s good." Kevin nodded. "Well then." He pointed at the kitchen in front of him and said in a low


    voice, "Teach me how to cook."


    "Pardon?" she asked, baffled. ''Did I just hear that right or am I going deaf?'' she thought incredulously.


    ''A young master actually asked me to teach him how to cook? And it''s my scary employer to be exact.''


    She looked at him nervously before saying, "Young Master." She took in arge gulp of air, continuing,


    "Just tell me if you want to have dinner and I’ll prepare some right away. You don’t have to do it


    yourself." Just then, Kevin looked at her with a difficult expression on his face.


    The servant was quivering in fear that her whole face turned pale as a ghost. She quickly moved back


    while her head was lowered down, not daring to raise it. Who knew what her employer was thinking?


    ''Am I going to get fired?'' she thought as she shut her eyes.


    "Forget it." Kevin casually opened the fridge and saw a lot of ingredients that were probably bought by


    Sam when he went out yesterday.


    ''Cooking is a piece of cake,'' he thought as he scanned the food avable in the fridge and the pantry.


    He took some vegetables out of the fridge and inspected them first before shrugging his shoulders.


    ''Maybe this will do,'' he thought as he closed the fridge by his back, vegetables in hand and then he


    started taking action. Kevin got himself busy as he began cleaning the vegetables forgetting the


    servant he was with. The girl behind him seemed to be seriously frightened by what she saw. ''I''m out of


    here!'' the girl thought agitatedly. After hesitating for half a second, the servant then immediately dashed


    out of the kitchen and into the courtyard, leaving Kevin in the private kitchen by himself.


    When Sam was about to leave the vi, Emily found an excuse toe with him. Knowing that she


    wouldn''t cause him unnecessary problem, Sam didn''t refuse. The atmosphere was quiet and peaceful


    when the two of them were in the car.


    Sam took a nce at Emily before shifting his gaze back at the road. "Are you hungry?"


    Emily snapped out from her thoughts when she heard her name and immediately turned at his


    direction, obviously surprised and asked, "What?" She then remembered what his question was. "Oh,


    I’m fine." She smiled a little before looking out of the window.


    After the terrifying event that happened with Anne’s condition in the morning, Emily was too busy to eat


    anything. She wouldn’t have remembered that she still hadn’t had breakfast if it hadn’t been mentioned


    by Sam.


    She looked down at her t stomach and thought, ‘Maybe I’m not that hungry yet.’

    "Let''s look for a ce to eat first before we continue." Sam smiled considerately


    It was not easy for Emily to refuse Sam so she just nodded and said, "Okay."


    Sam was a person who knew how to enjoy life to the fullest, so the restaurant he chose was naturally


    unique. As soon as they entered the restaurant, a waiter came over with a polite smile on his face.


    "Mr. Sam, wee!."


    Emily looked around the interior of the restaurant before ncing at Sam. It seemed that he was a


    regr guest of the restaurant they were in. Sam only gave him a nod as he calmly said, "The old


    seat."


    "Noted, Sir." He smiled before gesturing his hand in a certain direction. "Right this way."


    The waiter then led the way to their designated table. Sam then started following the waiter as Emily


    caught up. She suddenly felt ufortable when she went inside the restaurant.


    She looked around curiously just to see that everyone was looking at Sam and her.


    The gazes that fell on Sam were naturally soft with fondness present in their eyes whilst what she


    received were jealous and murderous gazes.


    She hastily shifted her gaze away from the crowd and into the straight back of the man who was


    walking elegantly and calmly in front of her. Emily let out a sigh at how unfair fate was for blessing


    Kevin with a beautiful face but it frustrated her more knowing that Sam was just as attractive as him. ''I


    don''t know if having handsome men around me is a blessing or a curse,'' she thought unhappily.


    No wonder those women were attracted to him. Just thinking of it made Emily feel sour.


    The seat chosen by Sam was a seat by the window. As soon as they arrived at their table, the beautiful


    scenery beyond the ss window amazed Emily. She couldn''t help but whisper, "What a beautiful


    ce!"


    The restaurant they were in was located halfway up the mountain. When they first arrived at the ce,


    Emily wanted to go back because she didn’t want to go too far just to eat breakfast. But she didn’t get


    the chance to when she saw how stubborn Sam was acting.


    She just realized how amazing the whole ce was when they arrived at their destination.


    The scenery at the hillside was very beautiful that they could clearly see the foot of the mountain from


    where they were. The green mountain looked more verdant under the cover of the green trees. With


    the flowers that dotted the cliff, the beautiful scene wasced with elegance and delicacy. asionally,


    cold wind blew and burst of fragrance could be smelled.


    The ce was very suitable if someone was in a date.


    ''Wait,'' she thought incredulously, feeling her stomach drop. ''A date? ‘What the heck am I thinking?’ she


    groaned. She felt her cheeks heat up, embarrassed just by thinking of such a disturbing idea.


    She snapped out from her thoughts when she heard a chair being pulled out. Emily raised her head


    and nced at the man beside her with a look of confusion evident on her face.


    Seeing her acting weirdly, Sam frowned and looked at her worriedly.


    "Is there something wrong, Emily? Are you okay?"


    Emily came to her senses after hearing Sam’s voice and smiled awkwardly, sitting like nothing


    happened. "I’m fine." She shifted her gaze away from him, still feeling embarrassed of her ridiculous


    thought.


    ‘I just didn’t expect you to pull out a chair for me. That’s all.’ She wanted to add but just held back in.


    Sam''s gentlemanly action made her fall into a reverie again. She couldn''t help but blush when Sam


    was seated in front of her.


    No one spoke while the two of them were eating. Emily was still not used to such an atmosphere


    although they followed the principle of not talking while eating so she decided to think of something to


    talk about.


    She wouldn''t be given another chance to be alone with Sam again so she had to seize the opportunity.


    "Sam," Emily called out. "You haven’t been to the hospital recently, have you?"


    Sam hummed his response as he swallowed his food. He raised his head slightly and nced at Emily.


    "There''s nothing special in the hospital anyway so I don''t need to go there."


    "Is that so?" Emily just nodded silently as she pondered what he said. ''There are countless of excellent


    doctors in the private hospital of the Feng Family,'' she thought. ''Sam wouldn''t need to go there if


    there''s nothing important.''


    "I wonder how Anne is doing now." Emily abruptly stopped from eating with the mention of Anne.


    Raising her chin, she said. "I''m really worried about leaving Mr. Kevin alone with Anne right now."


    Sam looked at her and smiled gently.


    "Don’t worry. Kevin is a man of his word." He smiled reassuringly. "We don’t need to worry since he has


    made a promise." After saying that, he paused and continued, "Maybe it will be better for the two of


    them to stay together alone for awhile."


    Sam took a napkin and cleaned his lips, seeming that he had already finished eating. "Don''t you still


    want to eat?" Emily asked.


    He shook his head and smiled. "It''s fine. I don''t really eat much at breakfast."


    "Oh, okay." Emily just gave him a nod before looking away. Seeing his calm face sent a ripple to her


    heart. "Let''s go," Emily said as she cleaned her mouth with a napkin. "I''m not used to having too much


    breakfast either."


    She smiled at Sam cheerfully before she stood up from her chair and walked out of the restaurant with


    a bright smile on her face.


    Sam shook his head at how weak he was against her cute smile as he stared at her disappearing


    figure with a gentle look on his face.


    The sunlight poured down and the sun moved above the branches.


    While sitting on the bed, Anne felt a little sore in her back after sleeping for so long. She picked up a


    book which was called ''Where is the Beauty?''


    The cover was simple. Just a pink peach blossom rising upwards and the rest of the space were nk,


    that was it.


    She then opened the book and flipped it to the first page where she saw a poem.
