The eldest daughter is committing suicide, and the marriage partner comes to redeem her

"Be careful."

The unique magnetic voice in the morning came with a slight smile, and Shen Zhiyan couldn't help but be stunned and didn't respond for a long time.

"Are you still asleep?"

The obvious teasing tone brought the woman's thoughts back to reality.

Shen Zhiyan hurriedly withdrew her arm, and her cold and pale cheeks instantly turned redder than the plate of cherry tomatoes on the table.

"I'm sorry Mr. Li."

"Say sorry, there's no need to be so formal."

Seeing the person walking to the opposite side, which was a position different from his own, Li Yanzhou's eyebrows moved slightly, and he poured a cup of soy milk and placed it on the opposite side.

Opposite.

"Did you sleep well last night?"

"is acceptable."

Although it was an unfamiliar environment, the bed in the guest room was very comfortable to sleep on, especially the mattress, which conformed to the human lumbar curve.

Shen Zhiyan told the truth and moved a step to sit opposite Li Yanzhou.

As if he heard something soothing, the man's mouth curled up slightly and he smiled as he picked up a shrimp dumpling and handed it to her.

“Try the shrimp dumplings, they are very authentic.”

The crystal clear shrimp dumplings, still steaming, are extremely tempting and make people salivate. Even Li Yanzhou, a Hong Kong native, says they are authentic and must be delicious.

However, the woman looked a little embarrassed and her chopsticks were testing the edge of the shrimp dumpling.

“Don’t like shrimp dumplings?”

Hearing the man's question, Shen Zhiyan quickly shook her head to deny it, fearing that he would misunderstand her.

"No, no, I can't eat shrimp."

Shen Zhiyan was allergic to shrimp meat, and would break out in hives after eating it. But she once ate shrimp dumplings at a tea restaurant, and miraculously, she did not have the allergy.

Jiang Ruoli directly dissed the restaurant's fake shrimp dumplings on the spot, saying that they had no shrimp, which was ridiculous.

However, the shrimp dumpling in front of her looked very real. If she really ate it, she would make a fool of herself in front of Mr. Li.

Li Yanzhou frowned and said in a low voice: "Allergic to shrimp? What about crabs?"

Shen Zhiyan pursed her lips and said, "Only shrimp meat."

"Then don't eat it." Li Yanzhou moved the plate of shrimp dumplings to the side and ordered, "Auntie Wang, take the shrimp dumplings away and bring up a bowl of crab meat wontons instead."

"Don't bother. I'll just eat something."

It was really embarrassing to come to someone else's house and ask the host to adapt to her eating habits. What's more, the host was her employer.

Seeing through the woman's embarrassment, Aunt Wang kindly comforted her: "It's not a problem, Miss Shen, it will be done soon."

Not long after, a bowl of steaming crab wontons was served to Shen Zhiyan, exuding an enticing aroma. Aunt Wang also very considerately brought three small dishes of seasonings, allowing Shen Zhiyan to choose to add vinegar and chili.

With the mentality of not letting Wang Ma's work go in vain, Shen Zhiyan not only finished a whole bowl of wontons, but also drank up all the soy milk poured by Li Yanzhou, and ate a pineapple bun by the way.

Li Yanzhou sat opposite her, elegantly holding a cup of coffee, watching her fill her mouth.

Those always cold and ruthless dark eyes were filled with emotions that shouldn't belong to him.

After leaving Li Garden, Shen Zhiyan looked at her round belly and sighed helplessly.

Mr. Li should be satisfied with the performance from yesterday to today.

Li Yanzhou was indeed very busy. After that, Shen Zhiyan went to Li Garden several times but didn't see him. She heard from Aunt Wang that he went to Gangcheng.

She completed her work conscientiously and arranged suitable incense in each area of ​​Li Garden.

Except, Mr. Li’s master bedroom.

But the two did meet a few times, but each time they only had brief exchanges. Mr. Li was a gentleman, not at all as scary as outsiders said.

Even humbly asked her about flowers that could be planted in the garden.

Before long, Li Yuan's garden was completely replaced with white camellias, and there was even a swing in the corner, making it almost exactly the same as her home on Yuhai Road.

The communication with Li Yanzhou became more and more natural. He taught her to say "you" instead of "you".

The days go by neither fast nor slow.

Shen Zhiyan, Jiang Ruoli, Xu Mengan and others made an appointment to eat hotpot. When sisters meet, they naturally have endless things to talk about.

After eating and drinking, by the second half, the show had evolved into a small drama of "sisterly love" between Jiang Ruoli and Xu Mengan.

"Lili, eat more. You've lost weight recently."

"I just weighed myself this morning and I gained 0.3kg. Also, don't think I don't know, you ordered this beef, so you are responsible for eating it."

"Ah, I'm really full." Xu Mengan looked at her for help: "Yanyan, you must not be full yet, right?"

Shen Zhiyan smiled and covered her own bowl, "I'm already very full, you eat more."

Zhou Zhu's call came in at this moment. The moment Shen Zhiyan let go of her hand to pick up the phone, a piece of fresh beef fell into the bowl.

"..."

After answering the phone, Zhou Zhu went straight to the point: "Ms. Shen, Mr. Li asked me to pick you up."

After saying goodbye to her sisters, as soon as she went out, the arrogant double-license plate Maybach drove up and jumped, as if afraid that she couldn't see it.

Seeing Shen Zhiyan coming out, Zhou Zhu hurriedly got out of the car and opened the back door for her: "Ms. Shen, please."

The woman did not get in the car right away. Her clear eyes stared at Zhou Zhu, whom she had just met in the morning, and she said softly, "Since you are here..."

Zhou Zhu secretly grabbed the back door and couldn't wait to interrupt Shen Zhiyan.

"Mr. Li has been drinking a lot with Mr. Pei recently. He gets headaches and can't sleep when he drinks too much. I'm not as proficient as Miss Shen in those incense sticks, so I'll have to trouble you..."

Zhou Zhu's words were straightforward and polite, and Shen Zhiyan really couldn't say no.

"It's not appropriate for me to sit in the back."

She walked to the passenger seat, bent down and sat in.

The two of them drove in silence all the way as the car arrived at Li Garden smoothly.

The corridor was long and winding, with dark yellow sensor lights pointing at it, lighting up along the way as the woman walked.

As soon as she stepped into the living room, Shen Zhiyan saw Li Yanzhou leaning on the sofa with his eyes closed. A suit worth hundreds of thousands of dollars was casually thrown on the other corner of the sofa. The man frowned and pressed his temples, with an unburned cigarette in his hand.

He looked like he had drunk a lot of alcohol and looked very uncomfortable.

"Mr. Li."

The man on the sofa opened his eyes and put out the cigarette in his hand the moment he saw the person coming. The oppression and vigilance in his sharp black eyes disappeared completely, and were replaced by a sense of fatigue.

"come over."

Shen Zhiyan walked towards him with light steps and smelled a faint scent of alcohol.

"I'll go light some incense for you."

Just as she was about to leave, her jade-like arm was pulled. But the man obviously controlled the strength, and she did not feel uncomfortable.

However, the drunk Li Yanzhou didn't seem to notice that he was pinching her arm unconsciously.

"what is this?"

Li Yanzhou pointed at the bag in Shen Zhiyan's hand, raised his eyebrows slightly, and revealed a smile.

"Zhou Zhu said you were drunk, so when we passed by the pharmacy, we saw it and bought some hangover medicine. Do you want to take it now?"

After getting a positive answer, Shen Zhiyan put the medicine on the coffee table and prepared to leave.

"where to?"

The arm was grabbed again.

"I'll go light some incense for you."

Mr. Li was drunk and confused. She had clearly told him everything, but he still didn't let her go.

"Can you give me a head massage?"

Shen Zhiyan was surprised, her teeth slightly showing: "Ah?"

Li Yanzhou explained in a low voice: "I drank and have a headache."

"it is good."

Shen Zhiyan originally wanted to walk behind the sofa, but Li Yanzhou directly grabbed her arm and pulled her onto the sofa. The two were so close that they could smell each other's scent.

The man's eyes were fixed on the woman who was so close to him, and he was not sure what he was trying to control. After a moment, his dark eyes finally looked away, and even his voice became a little deeper.

"let's start."

The slender fingers gently massaged the temples, as if with magical power, dispelling the day's fatigue.

No one spoke in the quiet living room, and the air flow was ambiguous. It was Shen Zhiyan who broke the silence first.

A soft and thin voice, afraid of disturbing the dozing man, asked: "Did Mr. Li drink a lot of wine?"

The man's eyes flashed with a hint of embarrassment, and he hummed in an ambiguous manner and changed the subject.

"Are you here to burn incense in Li Garden today?"

Shen Zhiyan nodded, and then she heard Li Yanzhou continue to ask: "Then why didn't you light it for my bedroom?"

The movement of his hands froze.

Normally, Shen Zhiyan would only go into Li Yanzhou's bedroom to light incense when he was around. Today, he was not there, so she did not go in without permission.

In the past, Li Yanzhou would never mention it on his own initiative, as if it was a tacit agreement. But now, he was probably drunk and blurted it out.

Shen Zhiyan bit her red lips and said softly, "This is not polite."

A low laugh escaped from his throat, and Li Yanzhou's face became a little more relaxed. Even his body unconsciously leaned towards the woman to make her posture more energy-saving.

"What kind of etiquette is this? If I'm not here in the future, you can just go in."

Seeing that Shen Zhiyan didn't say anything, Li Yanzhou added: "Understand?"

"Got it." Shen Zhiyan let go of her hand, "Mr. Li, does your head still hurt? If not, I'll go light some incense for you."

It seems that the kitten has been pushed into a corner.

"Go."

After lighting the soothing incense, Shen Zhiyan was kept in the guest bedroom by Li Yanzhou on the grounds that it was unsafe at night.

Compared with the first time, Shen Zhiyan was more familiar with the place this time.
