Sweet Wife in a Warm Pet Contract

Chapter 100 Entanglement

"Sign it." Li Zhicheng had no objections after reviewing it.

Shen Menghan didn't say anything in particular. She thought he was unfriendly to Li Meili, but he accepted the money for the individual photos without saying a word. Presumably, the two of them had been together for so long and still had some feelings for each other.

Thinking of this, she felt depressed. She realized something particularly distressing: she seemed to be becoming demanding of Li Zhicheng, wanting his attention but unwilling to give anything in return.

Is it right for him to be nice to Li Meili?

After get off work, she didn't go back to the Li family home, but went straight to her own small home.

Qin Fengjiao was startled when she saw her appear.

"If you're coming back for dinner, at least let me know. I didn't even prepare any food for you."

"Then let's go buy some more. The supermarket isn't far." Shen Menghan glanced at her. Linglong was a culinary whiz, and her cooking was quite delicious. That's why she came back.

Besides, when I rented this small apartment, it was precisely because it was convenient, thinking that my grandmother would move in someday and it wouldn't be far to buy groceries.

"Come in, I'll just make some noodles." Qin Fengjiao pouted.

"Okay, then we'll make do."

After entering the room, Shen Menghan appeared listless. She had only one thought in mind: to lie back on her familiar little bed.

Qin Fengjiao was busy, and she fell asleep in no time. It was definitely more comfortable to stay in her own territory.

Qin Fengjiao called from the kitchen, "Xiaohan, what are you doing?" After a while without hearing a reply, she dried her hands and went to the room. Seeing Xiaohan asleep on the bed, she couldn't help but sigh, "She can't sleep at the Li family's house?"

Let's prepare the food first, and we'll cook the noodles later when she wakes up.

Li Zhicheng waited in vain for Shen Menghan to return, so he called her.

Qin Fengjiao happened to be nearby, so she helped her take it.

"Hello Mr. Li, Xiaohan is at home."

As soon as she spoke, Li Zhicheng knew where she was.

Where is she?

"She's probably too tired and fell asleep. I'll have her call you back when she wakes up." She didn't dare to be negligent towards Li Zhicheng and always spoke to him with utmost respect.

Li Zhicheng hung up the phone without saying anything.

He got off work a little late, so he thought he would ask the driver to pick her up first. But the driver called to say that he couldn't see her and there was no one in the office either, so he guessed that she had gone home.

Why didn't she tell him before going back? Was it because of Cui Cui? The house can't function without a housekeeper; she doesn't like asking older people for gossip.

Runqiong and Li Lei came over together, and when they didn't see Shen Menghan, they asked her where she was.

"Grandma, she went out with her friends, we'll eat by ourselves."

"She made plans with a friend, aren't you going with her? Is it a male or female friend?" Runqiong asked nervously, as if she was worried that Shen Menghan would run away.

"Mom, you're being so nosy." Li Lei reminded his mother that if she wasn't careful, she might use the same tactics on Shen Menghan, and if she couldn't stand it and ran away, her son would blame her to death.

"I'm worried. Xiaohan is a good girl. If you lose her, Zhicheng, you can forget about continuing to live at home." She clearly sided with Shen Menghan.

“Grandma, she’s just going on a date, it’s fine. If we don’t give her some private space, I’m worried she’ll go crazy from being constantly influenced by the atmosphere at home.” Li Zhicheng spoke calmly, completely lacking the sharp aura he had in the office.

"Hmm, Cui Cui, tell me who's in your family and why you're doing this job?" Runqiong was worried about the new nanny. Although the young girl was dressed simply, she seemed cheerful. If she were to try to take advantage of her grandson and drive away the granddaughter-in-law she had been looking forward to, she wouldn't let her off the hook.

Cui Cui stood in front of them, first bowing to Runqiong, and then said softly, "Hello, ma'am, my name is Cui Cui. I live in Shili Village, Shili Town. I have parents, three younger sisters, a younger brother, and elderly grandparents. Because my family is poor, they can't afford to send me to university, so I started working as a nanny this year. But I have received professional training and will try my best to do my best."

After Cui Cui finished speaking, she lowered her head, not daring to look at the old man's probing gaze.

Seeing her like this, Li Lei couldn't help but say to his mother, "She's just a nanny, don't treat her like a criminal."

"If I don't figure out her background, what if she poisons my grandson and the others in the future?" Runqiong said seriously.

"Mom, what era are we living in? Stop watching those melodramatic TV dramas and you're corrupting your thinking." Li Lei shrugged helplessly; the old lady's ideas were truly bizarre.

"Get out of my way. What's with staring at Cui Cui like that?"

If Runqiong hadn't reminded him, Li Zhicheng wouldn't have noticed that his father's gaze had been fixed on Cuicui.

"I,"

"You stand aside," Runqiong interrupted him.

Li Lei was extremely annoyed. What was wrong with just glancing at it? He felt like he was being constantly guarded against. Had he done something wrong?

"Cui Cui, when you work in our family, you must remember one thing: say what you should say and don't say what you shouldn't say, listen to what you should listen to and don't listen to what you shouldn't listen to."

Runqiong started lecturing people, fearing that she was too young to speak without thinking.

"Yes, Cui Cui will definitely remember the old lady's teachings." Cui Cui looked very well-behaved, and hopefully she would be a good child.

Lu Fen and Li Meili whispered to each other in the dark: "Cui Cui's arrival has really solved our problem. Aunt, how about we make Cui Cui the female lead?"

Li Meili thought it better to find something outside than to use what was available locally!

“Cui Cui’s family is poor. If we give her a little something sweet and promise her a position, she might actually take the bait.”

Lu Fen was considering why she should leave him any room to maneuver since he was determined to abandon her.

She has lived a widowed-like marriage for so many years, and she can't swallow this anger without taking revenge.

"Okay, I'll talk to her tomorrow and test her a bit. If she's not aware of this, I'll lead her into the trap!"

Li Meili had already made up her mind; all that was needed was Lu Fen's approval.

"it is good!"

The two women then whispered to each other about how to lure Cui Cui into their trap.

When Shen Menghan woke up, it was already dark outside.

"If you don't wake up soon, I'm not going to let you eat on your own. You must have been too active last night, because you fell asleep as soon as you walked in the door. I really admire you."

Qin Fengjiao teased her, saying that after taking a nap, she looked much better than before.

"What nonsense are you talking about? I'll just wash my face and then eat." She stretched her limbs, feeling that she had slept very soundly.

There were two green vegetable dishes, one meat dish, and a large bowl of noodles on the table.

It's still steaming hot; it was just cooked by Qin Fengjiao. It's only satisfying to eat it piping hot.

Seeing that she had served him a full bowl, Shen Menghan put on an exaggerated expression and said, "Oh, to be served by the great host Qin personally, I am so incredibly touched!"

"Damn it, I haven't even officially made it yet!" Qin Fengjiao spat at her.
