Gu Peisi always acted arbitrarily and domineeringly and seldom explained anything to others.

Last night, he unexpectedly said so much to make her believe that he was not lying to her.

"What about your divorce..." Jian Xi hesitated to speak.

Although Gu Peisi did not hook up with Qin Ruoyin this time, it is a fact that he once hurt Lili.

She was afraid that Lili would get hurt again.

Looking at herself in the mirror, Shen Qingli raised her lips and said, "For some reasons, we won't get divorced for the time being, that's all."

She has not forgotten the pain she once suffered.

She would never allow herself to fall into the pit again.

At this time, Gu Peisi's voice came from outside the door, "It's time to eat."

Jian Xi, who was on the other end of the phone, naturally heard Gu Peisi's voice.

As if afraid of being overheard, she lowered her voice and said, "Lili, no matter what decision you make, I support you. It's getting late, you should go have breakfast."

Shen Qingli hummed in response.

After hanging up the phone, Shen Qingli quickened her hands and got herself ready.

When we arrived at the restaurant, Gu Peisi had been waiting for a long time.

The early morning sunlight shines into the room through the glass windows.

Half of his face was shrouded in light, outlining a cold profile and making the whole person look softer.

Seeing her coming, Gu Peisi pushed a bowl of porridge in front of her.

"Why are you down so late? If you come any later, your stomach will feel uncomfortable again."

The seemingly blaming tone actually contains concern for her.

A few years ago, Shen Qingli injured her stomach. If she ate late, her stomach would ache slightly.

"I was busy with something just now. I'll come down as soon as I'm done."

Smelling the fragrance of the porridge, Shen Qingli showed a hint of satisfaction.

When she finished breakfast, Gu Peisi hadn't left yet and seemed to have something to say to her.

"What's wrong? Why are you looking at me like that? Is there something on my face?" Shen Qingli took a tissue and wiped her mouth.

Gu Peisi's eyes fell on her face. "I heard you participated in the competition? Is it tomorrow?"

Shen Qingli was stunned and slightly surprised.

Gu Peisi seldom asked what she was doing, so why did he suddenly ask about her this time?

Seeing the surprise in her eyes, Gu Peisi explained: "Don't be so surprised, I just heard about it."

Shen Qingli nodded, "Tomorrow."

"I see."

After getting the answer he wanted, Gu Peisi did not continue asking.

He picked up the phone on the table and left without looking back.

Shen Qingli didn't think much about Gu Peisi's question. Her mind was entirely on tomorrow's game.

This competition is very important to her.

As early as half a month ago, she submitted a painting according to the theme of the competition and successfully obtained the qualification.

And tomorrow is the key to the success of the competition.

If you can win the first place in the competition, you will not only get one million, but also have your paintings exhibited in international art exhibitions.

By then, her paintings will be spread and attract more attention.

With the attention, as long as she keeps painting, money and fame will not be a problem.

At this moment, her mobile phone screen lit up. It was a message from Mr. Mo.

In order to help her perform well tomorrow, Mr. Mo called her over and gave her some guidance.

With the guidance of a master-level person like Mr. Mo, she is more confident about tomorrow's competition.

After packing everything, Shen Qingli picked up her bag and prepared to go out.

"Madam, will you come back for lunch?" Aunt Wang asked.

"No, I won't be back until night."

"Your leg isn't healed yet. Why don't you ask the driver to take you there?" Aunt Wang's face was full of worry.

My leg is injured. Although it doesn't hurt anymore, I still need to rest well.

Shen Qingli naturally would not refuse Aunt Wang's kindness.

Shen Qingli walked slowly towards the yard.

There, the driver was already waiting for her in the car.

When the driver saw her, he greeted her respectfully, "Ma'am, where are we going?"

"Go to Mr. Mo."

The driver nodded and went to Mr. Mo's place. He was already familiar with the route.

The car was moving quickly. Shen Qingli leaned back in the chair and soon fell asleep.

Last night, because of Gu Peisi's words, she tossed and turned and didn't fall asleep until midnight.

In the car, she felt sleepy and could no longer hold on.

I don’t know how long it was before the car stopped.

"Ma'am, we're here."

The driver's voice woke Shen Qingli up.

The sun outside was already high in the sky, shining through the window into the car and irritating her eyes.

She couldn't help but squint her eyes. After a while, she opened the car door and got out.

After saying goodbye to the driver, Shen Qingli walked along a road and entered the villa.

Just when I was halfway there, I saw a figure.

The familiar figure made Shen Qingli stunned.

Qiao Jinnian, why is he here today?

Knowing that escape was useless, Shen Qingli walked straight over.

Hearing footsteps behind him, Qiao Jinnian turned around.

Seeing that beautiful figure, his pupils widened slightly.

A hint of panic ensued.

"Kiyori, I didn't mean to be here," he explained.

But this explanation seems a bit pale and powerless.

"I know."

They just met by chance, it wasn't something Qiao Jinnian did on purpose.

After hearing Shen Qingli's words, Qiao Jinnian's tense nerves relaxed a little.

He was scared and made her angry.

He knew she didn't want to see him, but he still met her. He was afraid that she would misunderstand and think that he did it on purpose.

"Since you're here, let's go together." Shen Qingli said calmly.

Afterwards, the two of them walked towards the villa together, very close to each other.

Qiao Jinnian looked at the people around him out of the corner of his eye, and a sense of joy gradually rose in his heart.

Fortunately, she didn't blame him.

She is so nice and won't misunderstand others casually.

Shen Qingli didn't know what the people around her were thinking. What she was thinking about was what the content of tomorrow's game would be.

Soon, the two walked to the gate, where Mr. Mo's assistant had been waiting for a long time.

"Ms. Shen, Mr. Qiao, Mr. Mo is in the living room."

In the living room, Mr. Mo was painting.

He picked up the paintbrush and started drawing on the paper.

Shen Qingli and Qiao Jinnian did not speak, waiting for Mr. Mo to finish painting.

Half an hour later, Mr. Mo finally finished the painting.

He turned around and saw two people sitting on the chairs.

His eyes moved around them, "Hey, did you guys come here together?"

As soon as these words were spoken, the two of them were instantly embarrassed.

Not only did they not come together, they were originally going to avoid each other, but, by sheer coincidence, they bumped into each other.

Qiao Jinnian spoke up to break the awkwardness, "Uncle, I came here to bring you some tea."

On the table, there is an iron box with the word "Tea" written on it.

Mr. Mo walked to the table, picked up the can of tea, opened it, and a rich tea aroma wafted out instantly.

This is a rare variety of tea and is difficult to buy on the market.

"Well, it's this familiar smell, good boy." Old Mo patted Qiao Jinnian's shoulder heavily.

It can be seen that he is in a good mood at this time.
