The love is so deep that Mr. Gu is crazy

As Shen Li spoke, he observed Huo Mingyu's expression.

Seeing his eyes move, she continued, "I always heard you say that you have a grandfather who is so good to you. As an orphan who never experienced that since childhood, of course I long for it."

Shen Li took the initiative to mention her miserable life experience. Huo Mingyu could no longer remain calm and turned to look at her.

"You also know how good Grandpa Gu is to me. I knew Grandpa Gu earlier than I knew Gu Jingcheng. If you don't believe this, you can go ask Grandpa Huo."

"At first I didn't want to agree to it, I thought he was crazy, but then I thought, if I agree to it, not only can I make money, but I can also be loved by my grandfather, and we won't be tied together for life. It's a sure win."

"In the final analysis, I just agreed because I wanted to feel loved by my elders. What does this have to do with you? Don't take everything on yourself."

"I also want to feel the feeling of being loved by my family. Besides, didn't I get to know Grandpa Huo and find your relatives because of this?"

"We have made a fortune, don't you think?"

"It's just acting. That's what your sister does."

Huo Mingyu snorted unhappily: "You are not my sister."

"Didn't you see, he was with other women..." Huo Mingyu's angry voice came to an abrupt end, and he curled back up on the sofa. When he thought of the scene he had just seen, he became furious.

Shen Li's heart skipped a beat, as if pricked by a needle, but she still had a smiling, indifferent expression on her face.

"Who cares? This isn't a play. We each get what we need. We'll leave when the time is up anyway. No one will bother anyone."

"I am your sister, an adult, and I know what I am doing..."

"But by then you'll be remarried!" Huo Mingyu suddenly raised his voice and was skeptical about the reason given by Shen Li.

"What's the big deal? Are you worried that no one wants me? Then I'll just rely on you. Anyway, you're the young master of the Huo family now. I don't eat much, so it's not a big deal to support me~"

It was only after hearing these words that Huo Mingyu showed a slight smile on his face.

"You're just dreaming. I don't know who used to say that he would wait for her to become rich so that I could have delicious food and drink spicy drinks."

Shen Li knew from his reaction that even if the excuses she made up were lame and he didn't believe them, he had already been fooled.

Strike while the iron is hot, Shen Li gave Xie Xiaoqin a look, and she immediately understood and agreed with his persuasion.

The two of them treated this matter as gossip and analyzed it. If this matter got out of hand, what if Grandpa Gu got angry when he found out? The relationship between the two families was so good, how would they deal with it in the future?

Regardless of whether Huo Mingyu believed this outrageous exploitation or not, he finally agreed to keep it to himself and not tell anyone, waiting for Shen Li to resolve it himself.

After this matter was resolved, Shen Li urged him to change his clothes, go back downstairs and cut the cake.

Not many people saw the incident of Shen Li falling into the water, and it was not appropriate for people to discuss right and wrong on the host's territory, so Huo Mingyu's birthday party ended perfectly.

While eating the cake, Huo Mingyu came over to Shen Li and asked, "What is my gift?"

"You've seen it."

"What? Why don't I know?"

Shen Li pointed at the multi-layered cake that was half a person's height and was placed on the cart. Huo Mingyu's eyes widened in disbelief.

"You made such a big cake?"

Shen Li smiled and shook his head: "No."

Huo Mingyu almost breathed a sigh of relief, and Shen Li continued, "I made that little man above."

"The ugly one?"

"Well, then it was you who did it." Shen Li tilted his head and blinked at him with a sincere look on his face.

This news was like a bolt from the blue, and Huo Mingyu was stunned on the spot. When he was cutting the cake, he saw the ugly little man on the exquisite cake.

He thought it was deformed during transportation, and he even complained to Huo Jun next to him. Who could have thought that it was Shen Li who did it.

Now, the little guy has no idea what naughty kid is eating at the table. He feels really hopeless!

Shen Li comforted him: "It doesn't matter, you saw it, even if you received it, the cream will taste the same."

Seeing Huo Mingyu's frustrated look, she smiled, stretched out her wrist and took off a five-colored bracelet that was obviously much larger and looked like it would fall off her wrist at any time.

"Please extend your hand."

While putting the bracelet on his hand, Shen Li smiled and said, "It keeps us safe. I hope we will always be safe and healthy in the future. See this gold thread? It's pure gold. Don't tell your sister that you buckled it this time. It took me a lot of time to weave it."

She made the little man on the cake and also made the bracelet.

Huo Mingyu looked at the bracelet on her wrist. It was just the right length. She rubbed it gently with her right fingertips, as if she could feel her body temperature still on it.

This was the best birthday present he had ever received.

In the middle of the banquet, Shen Li found an opportunity to talk to Gu Jingcheng alone.

It briefly stated that Huo Mingyu had discovered the agreement between them, and also said that Huo Mingyu had promised Shen Li that he would not tell anyone about this unless she allowed it.

But Shen Li still told Gu Jingcheng about the situation so that he could be mentally prepared in case anything went wrong and ruined his plan.

Gu Jingcheng suddenly felt that Shen Li's attitude towards him seemed to have returned to the beginning.

He was anxious and wanted to explain to Shen Li, but was interrupted by the servant and called away. He Qi was looking for her, so he had to give up.

When leaving the Huo family, Shen Li did not go with him. She just sent him a message in advance and left first with Xie Xiaoqin.

He felt that Shen Li was angry because of Liang Jinsi.

It was already late today and she had fallen into the water. He thought about finding an opportunity tomorrow to explain everything to her face to face, as he had something important to tell her.

The next day, he arrived downstairs at the new apartment complex where Xie Xiaoqin lived early in the morning and sent a message to Shen Li. After waiting for a while, he received no reply.

When I called, Shen Liren was already in the company.

After some hesitation, Shen Li picked up the phone.

Knowing that she was already in the company, the plan to send her to the company had to be abandoned. Gu Jingcheng asked her to have dinner together in the evening, using the excuse of discussing the agreement that Huo Mingyu knew about.

Shen Li's fingertips tightened, and his heart was beating wildly. Was he going to say something to her? Was he going to end this relationship early?

"Ali, are you listening?"

"Yes, I am. I took a day off yesterday, so I have to make up for the missed classes. It might be late today. See you tonight."

Just as she finished speaking, she heard Shen Li's voice on the other end of the phone urging her to go to class.

She answered the call and informed Gu Jingcheng before hanging up, "I have to go to class. Let's talk in the evening."

Looking at the phone interface that had hung up the call, Gu Jingcheng felt lost and sent a message to Wei Ming.

【The plan was cancelled.】

His message was replied within seconds.

[What's going on? Can you help me, bro?]

Gu Jingcheng glanced at the ring in his hand and replied.

【Wait for my notification. 】

Then he drove away.

In the evening, Shen Li finished almost at 8 o'clock. He sent a message to Gu Jingcheng and then took a taxi to the restaurant that Gu Jingcheng had booked in advance.

I waited for half an hour, but received no message and did not see anyone.

The waiter came over and asked her again, "Hello, ma'am, would you like to order something?"

"Sorry, I'll order while we wait for someone to arrive."

"Okay, call me anytime you need me."

After the people left, Shen Li's throat felt itchy. He coughed a few times and drank some water to moisten his throat.

I looked at the time and it was almost nine o'clock, but the phone was still silent.

This moment she coughed more frequently than during the day, and her head felt swollen. She thought that she might have caught a cold after falling into the water yesterday, so she must remember to take some medicine at night.

After waiting for another ten minutes, she was bored and looking at the original novel of the drama that Sister Hua had arranged for her to star in. Then, a black shadow appeared in front of her. The person finally arrived.

She looked up and saw that the person sitting opposite her was not Gu Jingcheng.

Liang Jinsi? Why is she here?
