Pay For Lovely Me
Chapter 49 Lina, Stop It! (Part Three)

Celia was free again. She didn't have to be locked up in the villa all day long. It was raining these two days, which dispelled the heat of summer. She asked Jim to drive her to the Su Group. She hadn't been to the company for a period of time, so she wanted to see her brother there.

"Celia, you're here. Long time no see. When will you come back to work?"

When her former colleagues saw her, they were surprised and asked her one after another.

Celia just smiled and nodded. She found an excuse to deal with it casually. When she went all the way to Joe's office, she found that the employees there were more fewer than before. His office used to be on the other floor, which was luxurious and spacious. But now, it was half smaller.

Stopped the secretary from informing Joe in advance, Celia wanted to give a surprise to him. When she walked to the door of his office and was about to raise her hand to knock on the door, she heard the voice of Joe from inside, which sounded a little anxious and not as gentle as usual. "Mr. Liu, please give us a few more days. We promise we won't delay it..."

Celia was shocked. She didn't even knock at the door and reached out her hand to open it. When the door was opened and Joe looked up at her, his expression was obviously stiff. She couldn't hear what the other party said, but Joe called out twice in a row, "Mr. Liu, Mr. Liu..."

Finally, he hung up the phone in frustration.

"Brother, what happened?"

Celia walked up to him. Seeing that she was worried, Joe stopped being depressed and smiled gently, "Celia, why didn't you call me when you came to the company? Did you have a good time these days?" After saying that, he asked his secretary to bring two drinks through the internal line. Then, he pulled Celia to sit on the sofa next to him. Joe looked at her with gentle and loving eyes for a few seconds before saying sadly, "Celia, you're thinner."

He knew that Hans wouldn't be good to Celia. Everyone in the business circles knew that man was cold and ruthless.

Celia felt a little bitter in her heart, but she still wore a smile on her face. She let Joe's hand stop on her forehead and smoothed the fine bangs for her. At last, she answered in a brisk tone, "Brother, it's a good thing that I'm thinner. Don't be unhappy. No girl wants to look like a pig. Look at me. I'm so slim now. I don't even need to try on clothes. It's absolutely a standard figure..."

The more optimistic she was, the sadder Joe was. After a complicated look, he smiled, rubbed her hair lovingly and replied, "Okay, I'll take it as a weight loss, but don't keep losing, or there will be only a bone rack next time. If that's the case, then when you appear in front of me again, it will not be a surprise, but a fright."

Celia couldn't help but burst into laughter. She burst into laughter, but she couldn't help feeling sour in her heart. Celia was not the only one who became thinner. Her brother had also lost a lot of weight. He not only shouldered the burden of the company, but also took care of father and mother in the hospital.

The two of them chatted and laughed. Celia asked about the company's situation again, but Joe skillfully deflected the question. She knew that he didn't want her to be worried about the Su family, just as she didn't want him to be worried about her, so she didn't ask anything more. At last, Joe proposed to invite her to dinner, and she agreed readily.

Celia got in the car of Joe and Jim just drove the car following them. At first Joe had asked him to wait in the company, but out of the responsibility of the bodyguards, Jim insisted on going with her. At last, Celia also agreed. It was inconvenient for Joe to say anything, so he had to agree.

Sitting in the Volkswagen of Joe, Celia had a big smile on her face and was in a good mood. She hadn't been so happy since she was imprisoned in the villa. She had been living with brother for twenty years and never separated from him for such a long time. Even in college, she went home every day. After a long term of separation, it was natural and happy to see each other again.

Although Joe had been focusing on driving, there was an undisguised smile on his face and gentle eyes. He knew that time was different from before, so he cherished every second with Celia.

The restaurant they went to was a Sichuan restaurant they used to go to. Unlike Nancy, who had to wear famous fashion brands and go to the top restaurants, both of Joe and Celia were not very strict with living. He often accompanied Celia to eat all kinds of delicious food, even at the sidewalk stands and roadside stalls.

"Brother, how is Ryan?"

After the dishes and drinks were served, Joe considerately picked up food for Celia. It took her a long time to ask this question.

Hearing that, Joe smiled slightly and put a piece of tender fish into her bowl. "Don't worry. Ryan's wound recovered very soon. Celia, you have transfused so much blood that you need to nourish yourself." "Brother, that's why you ordered these pork liver and beef liver? To nourish my blood tonight?"

It suddenly dawned on Celia. She glanced at the dishes on the table. Just now, she was wondering why her brother ordered pork liver and beef liver. She didn't understand until she heard him say that she should eat more nutritious food.

The smile on his face deepened and he admitted frankly, "Yes, you have to eat all these blood nourishing food."

Celia frowned. She didn't like to eat these foods at ordinary times. Now that her brother said that he wanted her to eat them all, she couldn't help pouting and complained discontentedly, "Brother, why don't you just order some pig blood and ox blood? Blood can nourish blood faster."

"Ha ha!"

Joe was amused by her cute expression and burst into laughter. All his troubles these days were immediately swept away.
