Sweet Wife in a Warm Pet Contract
Chapter 21 Thoughtful and Considerate
Wouldn't that mean she'd be cut off from the family line? Luckily, he brought Xiaohan back. Xiaohan saved the entire Li family for her. How could she not like this gentle and understanding girl?
"Grandma, you're not an expert, how can you be sure? I'll tell you again, I love her." Li Zhicheng made a heart shape with his hand, a bright smile on his face, to reassure his grandmother that he would not let Xiaohan leave his side unless absolutely necessary.
"As long as you truly love her, that's enough. You understand Grandma's worries. Zhicheng, you're the one Grandma doesn't need to worry about the most. Grandma trusts you. Hurry up and get Xiaohan pregnant. Once she's pregnant, she won't have any ulterior motives and want to run away." Runqiong said with a smile, her eyes narrowed. Apart from her son, her grandson was the most worry-free.
Li Zhicheng nodded; he would try his best.
Shen Menghan got off work at 10 p.m.
During this time, Qin Fengjiao called her several times to urge her to meet as soon as possible. Seeing that it was so late, she hesitated whether to go back to the Li family or her own home.
Li Jun left the office with her and, seeing her tired expression, said, "How about I take you home?"
"No need, I can drive myself. You can go first."
"Then you should go back soon. The president has been urging me hundreds of times." Li Jun waved his phone at her. Li Zhicheng had been calling her every few minutes, from evening until now without stopping.
"Oh, okay." Shen Menghan replied verbally, but secretly wondered why he didn't just call her directly.
Just as she was about to get into her car, she received another call from Qin Fengjiao.
"Xiaohan, you absolutely have to be back by midnight, or I'm calling the police!"
"Linglong, I might not be able to go back tonight. Can we meet tomorrow morning?" Shen Menghan was on the verge of tears. She was in a real bind. It was difficult to talk to Li Zhicheng, but Linglong was one of her own, so it was a little better.
"I don't care, if you don't come back, I'll call the police and say you're missing. We haven't seen each other for over a year. How can you keep ignoring me like this?" Qin Fengjiao said pitifully, sounding like a puppy that had been abandoned.
"I really have something to do and can't go back. Let's meet at our usual place at 10 a.m. tomorrow. See you there."
"Come straight home, I want to see you!" Seeing her making excuses, Qin Fengjiao had no choice but to temporarily give in.
"Okay, see you tomorrow. You must be tired, go to bed early."
"I've been sleeping since this afternoon and I'm not sleepy. If you don't come back, I'm going out to have some fun later."
"If you dare go to a bar or nightclub, I'm not going back tomorrow," Shen Menghan said fiercely. She doesn't drink, but she still insists on going to those places to fool around, and every time she gets into trouble. She really didn't want to talk to her.
"Xiaohan, you're too cruel. How could you do this to me?"
"Alright, I'm not talking to you anymore. See you tomorrow."
Shen Menghan hung up the phone. If she continued talking to her, they probably wouldn't finish until dawn.
She returned to the Li family home at around 11 p.m.
Apart from the building where she and Li Zhicheng lived, the lights on both sides were already off, and everyone must have gone to bed long ago.
She parked her car, grabbed her phone and bag, and stepped outside. Suddenly, a figure appeared in front of her, startling her.
"Oh." She let out a muffled groan. Being in an unfamiliar place always makes one feel a sense of crisis.
"Xiaohan, it's me." Li Zhicheng turned on the garage lights, and instantly the garage was brightly lit, revealing dozens of luxury cars.
Shen Menghan retorted directly, "Couldn't you have called me from outside first? Suddenly popping out like this would scare people to death, okay?"
"I followed your car the whole way back, didn't you see me?"
"Who's paying attention to you?"
"You must check your rearview mirror while driving, otherwise you're likely to have an accident."
"If you don't want to lend me your car, just say so. There's no need to beat around the bush." Shen Menghan was getting angrier and angrier. She was already too tired to move, and he was still nagging on and on.
"You can drive any car here as you please. The key is with you. You can drive it if you want, or smash it if you don't. I, Li Zhicheng, am not that petty." He spread his hands, feeling displeased at being looked down upon by her.
"Really? Since you're so generous, can you waive the penalty for breach of contract?" Shen Menghan asked, seizing the opportunity to see his true intentions.
“That won’t do. If you want to breach the contract, you have to follow the agreement. One thing at a time, there’s no room for discussion.” Li Zhicheng was very insistent on this matter, not wanting her to waver.
"Hmph, you're just a stingy person. I can't be bothered with you." Shen Menghan said, and strode forward.
Li Zhicheng turned around and walked alongside her.
The moon hung high in the sky, and the streetlights in the courtyard were on, making it as bright as day.
As Shen Menghan walked, she felt very uncomfortable, her stomach was upset, probably because she had been hungry for too long. She needed to eat quickly or she would feel pain.
Li Zhicheng, ever observant, noticed her furrowed brow and asked anxiously, "Xiaohan, what's wrong?"
Shen Menghan pursed her lips, stubbornly refusing to speak. She was used to taking care of herself, and she dared not ask for the care of others.
"Have you not eaten dinner? Didn't you have any late-night snacks when you came back?" Li Zhicheng said, his anger already burning. How could he do something about her not taking care of her body?
Shen Menghan didn't say anything; her affairs were none of his business.
"I'll go heat up your food, just wait a few minutes."
After Li Zhicheng finished speaking, he strode into the house, leaving her alone.
Shen Menghan bit her lip, and after a long while, she slowly walked in.
Li Meili wanted to come over during the day, but found that all the locks had been changed. She was furious, but her aunt had warned her not to lose her temper, so she had to hold back.
She had just overheard Li Zhicheng and Shen Menghan's conversation from the shadows, and she was seething with hatred.
Her cousin was very friendly with her when they were young, but as he grew older, he became increasingly indifferent to her, which is why she had to work so hard to win him over. The man she cherished was being incredibly attentive to another woman, and she hated it.
Shen Menghan, don't think you can be so smug for long. Once I get my cousin pregnant, that's the day you'll be kicked out! Li Meili gritted her teeth and muttered to herself. She and her aunt had made a new plan. She wanted to get her cousin's child before Shen Menghan. Once she had the child, she could take her cousin down with her, and that old woman would be no problem either.
Shen Menghan felt a very intense gaze upon her, but assuming it was Li Zhicheng, she didn't turn around to look.
Li Zhicheng busied himself in the kitchen, heating soup and putting vegetables in the microwave. This arrogant rich second-generation was humbly working for a stranger like her. This sincere intention touched Shen Menghan's heart and gave her a strange feeling.
She clutched her chest and poured herself a glass of warm water to soothe her stomach before feeling unwell.
"Cousin, are you home?" Li Meili called out gently from outside the door.
