A pond full of blooming flowers, an ultimate addiction.

Chi Ruiche woke up early in the morning with a faint smile on his lips. He took the coffee from Aunt Wang, took a sip, and said, "Make some millet and pumpkin porridge."

"Yes."

Aunt Wang's worries eased. The low-key atmosphere that Chi Ruiche had given them when he returned a couple of days ago had kept them all from making a sound.

"I've prepared wontons, which are Miss Jiang's favorite."

"Today's lunch will be prepared according to her taste. She said the bread I baked last time was delicious, so I'll prepare some more."

Since Jiang Yi joined the company, Chi Ruiche has instructed Aunt Wang to prepare lunch for her every day and send it over. "You can send over cherries and strawberries now, and also prepare the peaches from last time."

"Miss Jiang said she wanted to eat coconut jelly, should we prepare that?"

"Okay, let's keep it in mind."

When kids crave cold things and want ice cream, you can use these to coax them a little.

"Alright, Young Master Lü personally delivered two boxes, saying they were gifts for Miss." They were delivered the day before yesterday, and she hadn't had a chance to speak until now.

"Put it in the storage room."

Chi Ruiche narrowed his hawk-like eyes, a strange emotion swirling in his heart.

Half-asleep, Jiang Yi touched the pillow next to her and suddenly woke up with a start, "Che."

Chi Ruiche carefully opened the door and came in. He met the anxious Jiang Yi and quickly stepped forward to hug her. "I'm here. I drank quite a bit last night."

"Che, I feel like I've forgotten something, when I saw Uncle San."

Jiang Yi shook his head, his voice a little hoarse. Everything in the dream felt so real, but he forgot it all after waking up.

Chi Ruiche cupped her face in his hands, his eyes like sunshine, warm and bright, revealing endless tenderness. "Third Uncle hasn't shown up for a long time. What did he say to you last night?"

"He said I looked like my aunt." Jiang Yi remembers those words.

"Perhaps he was thinking about the past, and it just so happens that you were a girl, and it just so happens that you married me."

Chi Ruiche's eyes met hers; she was the only one in his eyes.

Jiang Yi smiled back. Indeed, perhaps Uncle San had also thought of Aunt. Some people are people you can never forget.

"Yi Yi, I have a business dinner tonight."

Chi Ruiche's gaze enveloped her. If he could, he truly wished he could keep her by his side forever, anytime, anywhere.

Jiang Yi took the honey water that Chi Ruiche fed her. Her throat was no longer dry. She gulped down half a cup before smiling with satisfaction.

Jiang Yi was taken to the company by Chi Ruiche. The two lingered for a while before reluctantly parting ways.

"I'll leave after I watch you go." Jiang Yi didn't want to trouble him, so he told him to stop downstairs at the company.

"I love looking at you." Chi Ruiche's eyes were always full of doting affection, as if they could melt her heart.

"it is good."

Jiang Yi walked lightly into the building with a smile on her face, and only instructed Lin Kai to drive after she could no longer see Chi Ruiche.

The look in their eyes made Lin Kai mutter to himself, "This is work, it doesn't have to be like this."

Just as Jiang Yi received the lunchbox from Aunt Wang, Chi Ruiche's video call popped up. The sweetness in Jiang Yi's heart was sweeter than eating a lot of candy.

"President Chi, is there something you need?" Jiang Yi rested his chin on his hand and lightly tapped his face with his finger, looking frivolous.

Chi Ruiche smiled and said, "It's something, Miss Jiang, I missed you."

"Our CEO Chi is getting more and more sweet talk. Has he been learning?" Jiang Yi smiled, like a cunning and agile fox.

Chi Ruiche gazed at her with a broad smile, as if her presence made everything in his world more vivid and interesting.

After Jiang Yi finished reading the production plan they submitted, he lazily stretched and relaxed, releasing the fatigue of the day.

The clock showed 7:30 pm, and Chi Ruiche had sent her a message saying she had gone to the club, so she could only ask Youming to take her home.

The phone vibrated, and Jiang Yi noticed it was an unfamiliar number. He took a sip of his iced coffee but showed no intention of hanging up.

"Hello."

"Miss Jiang, Mr. Chi is at the Chaomu Club today, and Miss Zheng Zihan is also there."

"Who are you?" Jiang Yi raised his eyebrows, like a wary, bristling kitten, every nerve taut again.

The person on the phone suddenly laughed, "Haha."

The sharp, high-pitched singing seemed to come from the darkness, sending chills down one's spine.

“Leave Chi Ruiche, or else…” He paused deliberately, his voice filled with malice and threat.

Jiang Yi hung up before the call was over and called Chi Ruiche. Soon, Chi Ruiche's deep voice came through the phone, along with the sounds of other people chatting.

"Yi-yi, are you done with your work?"

Chi Ruiche was leaning back on the sofa, his long legs crossed, swirling a glass of red wine, a faint smile playing on his lips.

Jiang Yi licked her lips, lowered her voice, and pretended to be very tired, "Che, I'm so tired, come... pick me up."

Her voice was very soft, making people feel inexplicably uneasy and vulnerable.

"it is good."

Chi Ruiche naturally knew Jiang Yi; she rarely made demands of herself when he was socializing, this was the first time.

Jiang paused for a moment, then said, "I'm coming to find you. I want to hug you."

"I'm done. I'll come pick you up."

Chi Ruiche noticed the difference in her tone and softened his voice. The people around him chuckled to themselves. Wasn't she completely being manipulated?

"Youming is in the underground parking lot, he'll be here soon."

Jiang Yi composed herself, picked up her handbag, and left. Just before she left, her phone screen lit up again.

"Xiao Si, it's me."

Liu Shiya was waiting at the elevator entrance of the parking lot with her suitcase.

"Hmm?" Jiang Yi's tone was unpleasant; she hadn't forgotten what happened last time.

"We can talk. I want to apologize to you in person for what happened last time."

Liu Shiya gripped the suitcase tighter. "I'll wait for you in the underground parking lot."

Jiang frowned. How did she know her location? Could it be that the phone call just now was from her?

Jiang Yi informed Youming to wait for her at the elevator entrance. One should always be wary of others; today's events were too strange—an unfamiliar number, Liu Shiya's appearance—everything was too coincidental.

"bite…."

The elevator doors opened, and Liu Shiya's tense expression relaxed somewhat. She quickly stepped forward and said, "Xiao Si."

Jiang subconsciously took a step back, creating distance, and said with a distant smile, "Sorry, I have something to do today, there's no need for us to contact each other anymore."

Jiang Yi had her back to her, while Youming and Che were waiting at the elevator entrance.

"Miss."

Youming stood in front of Jiang Yi, making a blocking gesture with one arm, his expressionless face a show of intimidation towards Liu Shiya.

"Xiao Si, can you keep me company?" Liu Shiya suddenly shouted.

"Can you stay with me? I don't know what's wrong with me." Liu Shiya rushed over to try and grab Jiang Yi, but Youming blocked her.

"Youming, let her come over." Jiang Yi still softened; Liu Shiya was indeed a bit pitiful.

"Come with me to find Haotian, okay? He refuses to see me. I've gone to his company and his house, but he's not there."

Liu Shiya seemed to be grasping at the last straw, pleading.

Jiang Yi sighed. If she were heartbroken, she would probably go crazy too. She hoped someone could help her. "I can only call him."

"Second Brother, I'm waiting for you at the Jiang family's. I need to see you now." Jiang Yi's expression was blank, only his command was clear.
