After placing the dishes and noodles on the dining table, Xia Yunxi glanced towards the living room but did not see the man.

She was wondering if she should go upstairs to look for him, when she heard a noise coming from the stairs.

It was the man coming down with the cell phone.

The dim light reflected a faint glow on his face, which matched his cold and hard expression, making him look extremely stern.

Noticing her gaze, Li Hanting fixed her with a calm gaze and opened his thin lips slightly: "Are you done?"

"Yes." Xia Yunxi responded.

"You eat first."

Xia Yunxi frowned.

Perhaps he felt his tone was too cold, so the man explained in a rare good-tempered way: "I have something else to do. I need to go out."

After saying that, he walked towards the entrance without even looking at Xia Yunxi.

I heard the sound of keys colliding, and then the door was closed.

Xia Yunxi stood there, feeling unspeakable in her heart.

Should I ask him to stay? Should I tell him I worked so hard to prepare this, and then he would eat it?

But in what capacity did she ask for questioning?

Xia Yunxi thought her thoughts were funny. After a while, she heard the flickering shadow of a car's high beams outside.

Xia Yunxi just glanced at him lightly, turned around and went to the restaurant by herself.

Just eat it yourself, although if you make too much, it may be a bit wasteful.

But the owner doesn't care, does he?

——

Ever since that night, I have had an indescribable feeling.

For the next few days, Xia Yunxi never saw Li Hanting again.

I was worried that living in the imperial palace would mean I would see that man every day, which would be very embarrassing.

Unexpectedly, such a thing never happened.

Xia Yunxi's life was almost stable, and Li Hanting filled her schedule every day with her two children.

Even when Xia Yunxi wanted to see the two children, she could only take a quick look when she woke up in the morning and then take a quick look when she returned home in the evening.

And that was only when the child was asleep.

It can be said that she saw the two children, but to the two children, it was as if they had never seen her once.

For this reason, Xia Yuan and Li Jinchen were very disappointed.

However, I heard from Grandma Lin that every time Mommy came back, she would come to their room to see them.

Even the clothes they want to wear are prepared and placed by their mother in advance, waiting for them to get up and wear.

Thinking of this, Xia Yuan and Li Jinchen stopped making a fuss and became happy.

They happily go to the cheap dad’s customized courses for them.

——

Because the company was short of staff and Xia Yunxi was good-looking, Mr. Shao chose her to follow him and handle business.

In fact, when they say they are doing business, they are just treating people to a meal and promoting their own company at the same time.

But there are also some requirements for accompanying personnel.

Shao Qi did not bring Nancy, his personal bodyguard and driver, but instead called on Xia Yunxi, the operations staff, to take his place.

He said frankly that he would give her a raise next month, so he just wanted her to be a good vase.

Finding an ordinary company that is regulated by others and has no right to choose at all.

What's more, Mr. Shao is a pretty good person.

Although he asked Xia Yunxi to accompany him, he would still help Xia Yunxi when he encountered some unreasonable people in the workplace who liked to take advantage of others.

With such efforts, there are results.

After successfully winning three major projects and two companies' small designs, Mr. Shao finally showed his kindness and invited all the employees of the company to dinner.

So after get off work in the evening, everyone drove together to the hotel that had been booked first.

After getting out of the car and waiting for the elevator, An Lan approached Xia Yunxi and asked, "I heard you're married. Is that true?"

"Ah?" Xia Yunxi looked at her in confusion, not understanding what she meant.

An Lan exclaimed, "Why did you hide this from me? Mr. Shao already said you're a mother of two. I didn't realize, Yun Xi, you're so young, how come you're already married?"

It turned out to be Mr. Shao, the loudmouth. But why would he tell such a thing to his own employees?

Xia Yunxi thought about when she first came to the company, there were only Mr. Shao and An Lan here, and she felt relieved. Maybe they were very good friends.

However, Xia Yunxi didn't know how to explain this question?

Are you saying you are not married?

Then she was pregnant before marriage. Since ancient times, women have been viewed with prejudice and tinted glasses when looking at such things.

Although most people are now very open-minded.

Xia Yunxi smiled and said nothing, letting her think so.

"You are so mean. You didn't tell us when you got married. I always thought you were single." An Lan felt hurt. After all, compared to Xia Yunxi, he was still a single dog.

"Actually, you're not bad either." Xia Yunxi said in a low voice.

Just at this moment, the elevator arrived. Several people got in together and pressed the floor button. Just as the elevator door was about to close, a voice came from outside.

"Wait a moment."

Mr. Shao's hands were quick and he helped to block it.

The elevator door opened, and Xia Yunxi was stunned when she saw the person standing outside. Looking through the person, she saw Li Hanting, who was wearing a neat suit and looked proud and casual.

Her gaze was perhaps too direct, and the man felt it at just one glance.

Listening to the words of the person next to him, his eyes raised slightly, and then their eyes met.

Xia Yunxi clearly felt her heart skip a beat. The people in the elevator moved inside, and Xia Yunxi followed.

So, she and An Lan were blocked at the innermost part.

An Lan didn't know all this yet. After the people outside came in and the elevator door closed again, she continued to whisper to Xia Yunxi.

"You don't know, the guy our company just hired, the one who's really handsome... is still secretly asking about you..." When he said this, An Lan winked and made faces, as if he was afraid that others didn't know.

Xia Yunxi was at a loss whether to laugh or cry. Although An Lan spoke in a low voice, she still felt that everyone around her could hear it.

You Qi raised her head and looked at the man standing in front of her with a cold back and a cold demeanor.

"Hey, why are you getting married? Hey, how old are your two babies? Bring them to the company later and influence me. I also want to get married." An Lan was still talking to himself.

Xia Yunxi turned her head and looked at her: "Are you serious?"

"Of course, my mother won't let me go home now." An Lan said sadly.

"Pfft." Xia Yunxi laughed softly. Perhaps because she had no parental protection since childhood, she could not understand the feeling of being urged to get married.

But when she looked up, her face was clearly reflected through the gap because of the reflection of the elevator.
