Sweet Wife in a Warm Pet Contract

"To be honest, how are you doing at the Li family?" Shen Menghan expressed her concern to avoid her nagging about not coming back to keep her company.

"What can I do? I'll have to train first. Sister Xu Yun said she'll let me go for the trial once I'm out of seclusion." Qin Fengjiao's voice was much lower. It's hard to rise to the top in one step. Once you're in someone else's house, you have to follow their arrangements.

Without organization and discipline, how can one be popular? Trying to be unique and innovative is a thing of the future.

"Well, if you're unhappy with what you're doing and want to give up on your dreams, you can come to the wedding dress company, and we can work together." She thought that if Linglong came, maybe the two sisters could work together and revive the company more quickly.

"No, never give up until the very end. You're a leader now, so do a good job. Otherwise, if Mr. Li stops caring about you one day, where will you go to cry?" Qin Fengjiao quickly returned to her joking self, feeling very relaxed with Xiaohan.

"Xiaohan, what exactly happened between you and Mr. Li?"

"Just like I told you before, let's continue like this. You have to keep my mom's situation a secret. I told her it's just a work relationship. Also, we're planning to take a set of wedding photos to promote the company, just to save it."

She deliberately clarified to avoid any misunderstanding from her best friend, but little did she know that the clever Qin Fengjiao, who had known her for so long, could see right through her thoughts with just a glance.

"You two are really having an affair, right? If you're not prepared to protect yourself, please don't get pregnant."

"Where did you get off topic?"

"Anyway, be careful, or you'll be in big trouble later."

Her face fell. It wasn't a good time to talk about this during dinner, and it would remind her of those particularly tragic memories.

"Linglong, have you ever had this kind of experience? Are you hiding a lot of things from me?" Shen Menghan wasn't stupid; she quickly realized what was going on and stared intently at her.

"Yes, don't mention it, I won't say anything."

"Oh."

Shen Menghan didn't force her. If she was willing to talk, she would definitely tell her; if she wasn't, even if she held a knife to her throat, she wouldn't tell.

Linglong has a very strong personality, and no one can control her.

Li Zhicheng asked for the phone again, and Qin Fengjiao quickly said, "He called an hour ago, and I told him you were sleeping."

"Hello," Shen Menghan said mechanically, not wanting to talk to him.

"Xiaohan, open the door."

"What?" She thought she had misheard!

Then, the doorbell rang.

Qin Fengjiao was also startled, but she obediently went to open the door.

Li Zhicheng was carrying a cardboard bag, and the delicious aroma could be smelled even through the bag.

She stared wide-eyed at the incredibly handsome man in front of her, completely bewildered.

"I'm looking for Xiaohan," he said casually, walking past her and ignoring her infatuated expression.

Qin Fengjiao hurriedly chased after her and slammed the door shut with a bang.

Shen Menghan was still holding her phone, watching him walk inside while keeping an eye on her.

"I was worried you hadn't eaten, so I packed it up." All the dishes were pre-ordered, and they were delivered just as we were getting close to her building.

Shen Menghan pursed her lips and said indifferently, "We have food here."

“This isn’t enough. Mr. Li’s packed food must be delicious. Let me unpack it.” Qin Fengjiao was extremely attentive. She stepped forward, took the bag, opened it, and took out the food inside.

Seeing her friend so anxious, Shen Menghan was speechless. But after smelling the aroma, she couldn't help but swallow. She had been having a big appetite lately and couldn't resist eating.

"Mr. Li, please sit here. I'll get you a bowl." Qin Fengjiao couldn't afford to offend the big boss; without him, her future would be uncertain.

Seeing her displeasure, Li Zhicheng didn't rush to explain, telling her to eat first.

When he left, his grandmother reminded them to go home early.

Grandma can't feel at ease unless she sees her these days; I really don't know what's going on in her mind.

"Xiaohan, let's go home together after dinner. If you want to go shopping, I'll go with you."

A man who is willing to go shopping with a woman is definitely a good man. Qin Fengjiao was very envious. A high-ranking person like Li Zhicheng is not only handsome but also rich. Other women all want to throw themselves at him, including her. If he weren't Xiaohan's boyfriend, she wouldn't be polite either.

"I'll stay here tonight," Shen Menghan said without looking up.

"Xiaohan, there's only one bed. Are you asking me to sleep on the floor?" Qin Fengjiao feigned pitifulness, her aim being to bring the two of them together. She felt it was a great pity that Xiaohan didn't want this good man.

Shen Menghan glared at her. This was her home, yet she wanted to kick her out?

"Xiaohan, just live well with Mr. Li. There's no problem that a married couple can't resolve. Go back and have a good talk." Qin Fengjiao advised her like an elder, as if she were an immature child.

Shen Menghan didn't say anything, so she took it as a tacit agreement.

After the meal, Li Zhicheng left her home with her.

Qin Fengjiao sent her a message: We have plenty of time. If you two miss each other, I'm afraid you won't be able to make up for it later. Don't let yourself regret it.

What did she regret? Her relationship with Li Zhicheng wasn't what she thought!

"Xiaohan, if you don't like Cuicui, I'll make her leave." Li Zhicheng apologized and tried to please her in every way, just to win a smile from her.

"I just want some peace and quiet, can you let me have some peace and quiet?" she growled almost in a low voice, and the car instantly became suffocating.

Li Zhicheng parked the car on the side of the road, approached her, and stared at her intently. Seeing that her eyes were red, he couldn't help but reach out and touch her cheek.

She turned her face away, but tears still streamed down her face uncontrollably.

"Xiaohan, who bullied you?" Li Zhicheng had only one thought: his woman had been wronged.

Her tears flowed even more fiercely; it was him!

"Xiaohan, is that Qin Fengjiao?"

"It wasn't her." Her voice choked with emotion, not wanting him to misunderstand.

"Who is that?"

He looked at her, insisting that she say it: those who bully him are the ones who bully him.

"You, it's you! I'd be happy if you didn't show up." Shen Menghan suddenly turned around, staring at him with resentment. The confusion this man had caused her was still lingering in her mind.

Li Zhicheng breathed a sigh of relief. Luckily it was him; he would have gone crazy if it were anyone else.

"What do you want to do with me?" He should actually be thankful that Xiaohan was crying for him and that she had feelings for him.

"I...I want to leave you," she said stubbornly, as if leaving him would solve all her problems.

"Xiaohan, stop."

He pulled her into his arms in an instant, and her struggles were futile.

How could he let her leave? Even if it cost him his life, he couldn't let her go easily.

Shen Menghan's tears soaked his clothes, but he ignored it. He figured he would talk to her properly after she had cried enough, since she must have been wronged by someone else.
