Although Shen Qingli's operation went smoothly, she still has a long period of rehabilitation training to restore her hand to its original state.

This news was a mixture of joy and sorrow for her. The joy was that there was hope for her recovery, but the sorrow was that she didn't know when she would recover.

Shen Qingli was actually very worried that Zhou Yanchen would always accompany her abroad. What should she do with the affairs of his company?

She didn't need to think to know that for a company as big as Xinyu, there would be many things to do every day.

Zhou Yanchen went out and bought some toiletries.

Shen Qingli looked at him, thought for a moment and said, "Ayan, how about I stay here for rehabilitation training and you go back to Beijing."

Hearing this, Zhou Yanchen put down what he was holding and sat down beside her bed.

"Xiao Li, why are you talking about this suddenly?"

"I'm just worried, what will happen to your company if you stay here?"

"The doctor said that it will take a long time for my hand to recover to its original state."

Zhou Yanchen had a smile on his face, "Don't worry about the company's affairs, I have already arranged it before I came."

"With Changyou and Bai Heng here, nothing will happen."

"Just focus on getting your hand healed, and don't worry about anything else."

"I don't plan to hire a teacher for the children these days. I plan to take them for a walk around the neighborhood first."

Shen Qingli's worries did not completely dissipate. She frowned slightly, "Is your company really okay?"

Zhou Yanchen gently reached out his hand and stroked her cheek, "Don't worry, it's really okay. Don't worry."

Shen Qingli nodded, but the worry on his face did not completely fade away.

Zhou Yanchen seemed to see what she was thinking, and quickly changed the subject, saying with a smile: "By the way, I also have a company here. I founded it when we were married."

"My partners learned that I'm back, so they organized a party for the following evening. Do you want to go?"

Shen Qingli hesitated for a moment, but still shook his head, "I'd better not go. It's not very convenient for me to go in my current condition."

Zhou Yanchen quickly expressed his understanding, "Then I won't go either. I'll stay with you."

Shen Qingli said quickly: "No, you should go. They organized this party especially because you came back. It would be bad if you don't go."

"fine."

"It's getting late, wash up and take a rest. I'll go get some water."

"No, I can go by myself."

Zhou Yanchen took the basin and towel and said, "Just sit here and wait."

He took the water and wrung out the towel. Shen Qingli was about to reach out to take it, but Zhou Yanchen said, "I'll help you wipe your face."

Shen Qingli looked at him in surprise, not knowing how to respond for a moment.

Her eyes met Zhou Yanchen's, and she saw tenderness in his eyes, which she had never seen before.

Shen Qingli felt his movements, and an indescribable feeling surged in his heart.

Zhou Yanchen used to be so arrogant and indifferent, but now he takes care of herself so carefully, which makes Shen Qingli feel a little uncomfortable.

"Zhou Yanchen, you don't have to do this." Shen Qingli finally couldn't help but said, "You don't have to try to please me."

Hearing this, Zhou Yanchen paused for a moment, raised his head, looked directly into Shen Qingli's eyes, and asked, "Do you think everything I do now is to please you?"

Shen Qingli was silent for a moment, then nodded.

A trace of disappointment flashed across Zhou Yanchen's face, but he quickly regained his composure and said seriously: "What I am doing now is not to please you, but because I really want to do it."

"You are my wife, isn't it my duty to do this for you?"

He paused, then continued: "If I had realized my feelings earlier, we wouldn't have missed each other for so long."

"Now I cherish the time we spend together."

"I want to do more for you."

Shen Qingli felt a warm current flowing through her heart as she listened to Zhou Yanchen's words.

She had thought more than once that if she and Zhou Yanchen had known each other and loved each other, then those seven people would have lived a happy life!

"Don't think about it." Zhou Yanchen seemed to notice Shen Qingli's thoughts. He said softly, then stood up and walked into the bathroom again.

After a while, Zhou Yanchen came out with another basin of water. He placed the basin at Shen Qingli's feet and then squatted down.

Shen Qingli looked at him in surprise, not knowing what he was going to do.

Zhou Yanchen stretched out his hand without hesitation and held Shen Qingli's foot.

Shen Qingli's heart suddenly tightened, and his body involuntarily shrank back, trying to pull his feet out of Zhou Yanchen's hands.

"What are you doing?" There was a hint of surprise and uneasiness in her voice.

Zhou Yanchen slowly raised his head and his eyes met Shen Qingli's. His eyes were deep and gentle, as if penetrating her soul.

"Wash your feet." His voice was low and magnetic, and these four simple words made Shen Qingli's heartbeat accelerate instantly.

Shen Qingli was a little at a loss, she quickly said: "No, I can do it myself."

However, Zhou Yanchen didn't seem to intend to listen to her advice.

He held Shen Qingli's feet tightly and gently placed them in the basin of water.

"Wife, I've wanted to do this for a long time." Zhou Yanchen's tone revealed a firmness that made Shen Qingli unable to refuse.

Shen Qingli was deeply shocked.

She had never thought that a man of such a noble status as Zhou Yanchen would be willing to do such an ordinary thing for her.

She watched Zhou Yanchen concentrate on washing her feet, and an indescribable feeling of emotion welled up in her heart.

This man, since they met again, always brought her surprises and warmth inadvertently.

…

Cen Yi hurried to Sheng Chu's place and asked as soon as he entered the door: "Why did you call me over so urgently? What happened?"

Sheng Chu heard the voice, turned around slowly, holding a glass of red wine in his hand, and asked elegantly: "Would you like a drink?"

Cen Yi refused directly: "I drove here, it's not convenient for me to drink."

Sheng Chu smiled, then turned around again, looked up at the night sky outside the window, and after a moment of silence, she finally spoke slowly: "Cen Yi, have you ever liked someone?"

When Cen Yi heard this question, his heart suddenly tightened, as if something was touched in an instant.

He walked to Sheng Chu's side, stood shoulder to shoulder with her, turned his head, looked at her quietly, and then answered in a low voice: "I liked her."

Sheng Chu's eyes were still fixed on the night sky. She didn't seem surprised by Cen Yi's answer. She just continued to ask, "Are you with her then?"

Cen Yi raised the corner of his mouth slightly, revealing a bitter smile, "No, she doesn't know that I like her."
