Dong Yizhi stayed in the new city for more than 20 days. When Shi Tingfeng had a little free time, he called to ask and learned that Yizhi had gone back to her hometown because she was in a bad mood.

Shi Tingfeng thought to himself, since Zhizhi is in Lancheng anyway and he doesn't have time to accompany her, he might as well let her go.

I planned to pick her up when I had time, but I ended up being busy for more than half a month and couldn't find the time to come.

Shi Tingfeng has a lot of social engagements these days, and the company has run into some problems. Although it doesn't affect the company, he still needs to deal with them personally. He comes off the dinner table drunk every day, and his attention is no longer on Zhizhi.

Sure enough, Shi Tingfeng got off the table again, looking drunk. His newly hired assistant, who was very perceptive, stepped forward and said, "Mr. Shi, let me help you to your room to rest."

Chen Siying, a recent college graduate, looked at the young CEO Shi with pity in her eyes. She had heard that CEO Shi's wife was just a pretty face who only knew how to eat, drink, and have fun, and didn't care about CEO Shi at all.

As a wife, I have fulfilled my responsibilities to the best of my ability. If I were Mrs. Shi, I would definitely put Mr. Shi first...

Shi Tingfeng spends most of his time at the company or on business trips these days. He simply doesn't have the time or energy to focus on Zhizhi. He can only ask her to visit her parents-in-law on the phone.

As for whether Zhizhi went or not, every time Shi Tingfeng called, his mother-in-law said that she had come a couple of days ago, but then got bored and went to Xincheng to play with her two older brothers.

Ye Xiuzheng was returning home from get off work when Zhizhi was still fast asleep. Ye Xiuzheng carried the groceries he had bought into the kitchen.

He went into the room, glanced at the sleeping beauty, shook his head affectionately, and then went to the kitchen to cook.

This little girl is very picky; if it's not cooked well, she won't eat it.

Fortunately, Ye Xiu is a skilled cook and knows Zhizhi's tastes well. His cooking is very much to Zhizhi's liking, and she always finishes her food completely.

When Ye Xiu finished cooking and went to the bedroom, Zhi Zhi was already awake and doing stretching exercises on the balcony.

Upon seeing him, Zhizhi happily rushed into his arms.

"Smack~ Smack," Zhizhi kissed Ye Xiuzheng twice on the cheek, then cupped his face and examined it carefully.

"You seem to be in a good mood today. Did you find some money?"

"I didn't find any money, but I did find a bargain."

Shi Tingfeng will be busy for a while, so Zhizhi doesn't need to rush back.

Looking at the girl's soft, full face under the sunlight, her pure, unadorned face was delicate and white, glowing with a luminous sheen.

Ye Xiu was completely captivated. The more time he spent with Zhizhi, the more inseparable he became from her, as if he were under a spell.

But this heartless fellow, urged on by Shi Tingfeng, wanted to go home without ever thinking about himself.

"Are you hungry? Let's go eat."

Looking at her beloved shrimp and egg dish, Zhizhi smiled broadly and said to Ye Xiuzheng, "Old Ye, you've worked hard!"

Hearing Zhizhi call him "Old Ye," Ye Xiu felt really uncomfortable. He didn't really care about the age difference, but being called that by the young girl made him feel strange.

However, the little girl said that calling him that was more affectionate, so he had no choice but to let her have her way.

"You little rascal, you're always saying sweet nothings. If you really feel sorry for me, you can cook me a nice meal too."

"Hehe, I can't, otherwise I definitely would have made it for you." Cooking? That's absolutely out of the question!

Besides, cooking is such a hassle; she'd rather eat out than waste time cooking.

"Hmm, you're not in a hurry to go back now, are you?"

"How could I not be in a hurry? Brother Feng called me yesterday, so I can't put it off any longer. Besides, I haven't seen Xiao Shiyun in a long time, and I miss her terribly."

The main reason is that I'm tired of staying here and want to go to Lanzhou to see different scenery. Besides, distance makes the heart grow fonder. When two people are together for a long time, their feelings fade and they start to find fault with each other.

It would be better to separate for a while; maybe after some time she'll remember how good this old man was.

To say that Dong Yizhi has any particularly deep feelings for Ye Xiuzheng wouldn't be accurate. She's a rather sentimental person, and when she's moved, she'd want to give him everything she has.

I want to be with you, hug you, and kiss you all the time.

But once that initial shock wears off, she regains her senses and finds everything unpleasant and displeasing.

She was attracted to Ye Xiuzheng a while ago and found him to be very charming. Now that Dong Yizhi hasn't seen Shi Tingfeng for a long time, she remembers all the good things he did for her.

So when she misses him, she wants to go back and see him right away to ease the pain of longing, but even the most foolish Zhizhi knows she can't say it out loud.

All I can say is that I miss my daughter.

After draining Ye Xiu dry, Zhizhi patted her behind and left. She felt she couldn't stand the old man anymore and decided to go back to see her daughter.

Who knew that after only two days of rest back in Lancheng, Shi Tingfeng saw her return, and because the two hadn't seen each other for almost a month, they were like dry wood meeting a raging fire, and Zhizhi was tormented again.

"That's enough. Don't act like a hungry wolf, as if you're starving for meat."

Shi Tingfeng didn't care; he wanted to make up for the month he had missed.

"Of course you were starving! You heartless little thing, you've been gone for a whole month without thinking about your husband at all. I really owe you something, and you have to make it up to me this time."

The two of them fooled around like that all night.

Fortunately, this time when Zhizhi ran away from home, Shi's mother thought it was because she had been nagging too much and scared her daughter-in-law away.

Since Zhizhi came back this time, she has been sleeping until the sun is high in the sky every day, and Shi's mother has not said a word. She takes Xiaozhi to the park to play every day, out of sight, out of mind.

Zhizhi has become much quieter.

After having a few days of fun with Shi Tingfeng, Zhizhi returned to her normal life.

That day, Zhizhi had just come out of the bank when she bumped into Wu Mingzheng, who was about to enter the bank.

Wu Mingzheng was overjoyed to see Dong Yizhi. Although they lived in the same city, they hadn't run into each other even once in the past few years.

"Zhizhi, are you here to deposit money?"

"Uh..." How was Zhizhi supposed to answer that? This was a private matter.

Although they did come to deposit money, they weren't depositing cash, but gold bars.

Since her daughter was born, Zhizhi has been saving a few sticks every year as a dowry for her daughter.

Although Zhizhi isn't particularly fond of children, she will still consider things for them when necessary, since it's within her capabilities.

Seeing that Zhizhi was a little embarrassed, Wu Mingzheng realized that his question had been a bit abrupt, so he quickly changed the subject.

"We haven't seen each other for years, how about we grab a bite to eat together?"

Wu Mingzheng has been living a pretty comfortable life these past few years. Zhizhi looked him up and down and noticed that his belly was getting quite bulging.

Wu Mingzheng felt quite embarrassed under Zhizhi's gaze, and stood there a little uneasy. "What's wrong with me? Is there anything wrong with what I'm wearing?"

Zhizhi laughed, "Oh, it's nothing, it just feels a bit unfamiliar. I haven't seen you for several years, you've changed so much."

My belly is getting bigger, and my hair is thinning.

Wu Mingzheng thought Zhizhi was praising him. "No, no, I'm still the same. I've just made a little money and bought a house and a car in Lancheng, so the pressure of life isn't so great anymore."

"But you look even more beautiful, mature, and attractive than before."

"Oh, really? Thank you."

Wu Mingzheng looked at Zhizhi and asked again, "How about we find a place to have coffee and catch up on how things are going?"

Dong Yizhi waved her hand, "I really don't have time this time. How about next time? I'll treat you when I'm free."
