After Stax walked down the last step, he came to Su Ruixue's side.

Su Ruixue's face showed a perfect, elegant and calm smile, and she looked at the man in front of her with a pair of affectionate eyes, like a deeply affectionate lover.

"What were you looking at just now?" Stace's hand naturally fell on Su Ruixue's waist and asked her softly.

"I saw something interesting, but it's women's gossip, and Mr. Stacey is not interested in it." Su Ruixue said softly.

Hearing her say this, Stacey didn't ask any more questions.

But he suddenly thought of something, and a sinister light flashed across his deep blue eyes, which was so fast that it was almost invisible.

"My dear Xue, perhaps you are right. The giant snake entwined in this city cannot be easily teased."

"Really? Mr. Stace is in trouble?" Su Ruixue asked inconspicuously.

"It's not a problem. I'm just thinking about how to pry the giant snake out of its tiny home."

"I'm afraid this is not easy!" Su Ruixue said meaningfully.

In fact, they all know what the implicit meaning of what they said is?

It’s not easy to just target the Li Group.

A lion is a lion after all, and it has opened its eyes. Doesn’t Su Ruixue think that an outsider can shake the local power?

——

Xia Yunxi didn't know the twists and turns involved. After Li Hanting let her go, she gasped heavily.

It's like a drowning person who is finally rescued and gets a moment to breathe.

She rested her forehead on the man's chest, listening quietly to the steady and strong heartbeat coming from his chest.

A man's low laugh came from above my head: "Didn't you say you wanted to make me happy?"

Xia Yunxi raised her head and looked at him seriously: "Are you happy now?"

Li Hanting held her with one arm. Xia Yunxi was actually quite tall and had a big frame, but she looked frail when leaning in Li Hanting's arms. He held her in his arms with plenty of space left.

The man lowered his head, placed a kiss on her eyelid, and whispered, "I want you."

Express your meaning directly and clearly.

Xia Yunxi's cheeks suddenly turned red with embarrassment. The hand that was grabbing the front of his shirt exerted a little force, and she didn't know how to react for a moment.

"What? Are you shy?" The man laughed softly.

Xia Yunxi looked up and glared at him unhappily, feeling that her kindness would be taken advantage of.

It was obvious that she was trying to comfort him because she saw that he was unhappy. After all, Xia Yunxi still had the awareness of being a couple.

But that doesn't mean that this person can get more than he deserves, right?

She immediately let go of Li Hanting's clothes and stepped back from his arms.

Putting some distance between them, Xia Yunxi casually adjusted her hair and ignored Li Hanting.

"Okay, I'm just kidding. If you don't want to, I won't force you." Li Hanting said as he held her hand with his big palm.

Wrapping her hand in his palm, it was like a soft heart that wrapped everything.

Feeling the dependence of the woman beside him, Li Hanting's depressed heart was indeed much better. Some things, even if you have never experienced them, can still arouse different feelings when you touch them.

For example, in the outside world, when others mention him, they will not be terrified, but they will always be a little afraid of him.

Li Hanting really achieved this by making others act according to his mood.

He seems to be invincible, but if you are really in his position, would you have no worries?

Not necessarily. Being prepared for danger in times of peace does not mean waking up on your own, but keeping it in mind at all times.

But after being in that state for a long time, Li Hanting couldn't remember when he had truly relaxed?

It seems not!

Except for the woman next to him, who gave him a different feeling and made him want to try it.

Then his life became just about conquering.

Over time, to be honest, it really becomes boring.

Li Hanting suddenly laughed, and Xia Yunxi turned to look at him: "What are you laughing at?"

"nothing?"

"We're just standing here, what are we supposed to do?"

Li Hanting: “…”

The driver was late because he got hungry while waiting, so he went to buy something to eat.

When the driver came back and saw Mr. Li and Ms. Xia standing in the cold wind waiting, he broke out in a cold sweat.

The driver hurriedly drove the car over, thinking that his career might be over.

Unexpectedly, Li Hanting didn't say anything on the way back from the hotel.

When we returned to the Imperial Palace, the two little guys had already fallen asleep.

In the empty villa, only a gray-yellow light was left, emitting light quietly.

Xia Yunxi first went back to her room to change her clothes and take a shower, then went downstairs to cook for herself and Li Hanting.

Opening the refrigerator, Aunt Lin had prepared plenty of food.

Ever since she discovered that Xia Yunxi would come home late from get off work and might cook for herself, Aunt Lin would prepare everything for her in advance.

Then when she cooks in the evening, she doesn’t have to wash vegetables and prepare ingredients.

There was still rice for the afternoon meal, so Xia Yunxi simply fried two dishes and made a bowl of soup.

When the food was served on the table, Li Hanting came down wearing a bathrobe.

There were still water droplets on his hair, which showed that he had just taken a shower and walked down without wiping it off.

"Are you starving?" Xia Yunxi put the dishes and chopsticks on the table. "It's getting late, so I'll excuse you for a moment and just eat something."

In Xia Yunxi's eyes, Li Hanting probably wouldn't be able to eat such a homely meal.

After all, given his status, every meal should be filled with delicacies from land and sea.

Aunt Lin and the chef prepared a very sumptuous meal, and it is no exaggeration to say that it was made by five-star chefs.

So in Li Hanting's eyes, Xia Yunxi's cooking skills were probably not even worthy of being served on the table.

However, unexpectedly, the man did not despise him. He sat down in the main seat, picked up the bowl, and was elegant and calm.

"These are already very good." Li Hanting commented.

"I was worried that I might wrong you." Xia Yunxi joked.

"You know that the servants in the Imperial Palace have rules and regulations. They are not on duty at night." Li Hanting explained the situation in the Imperial Palace in one sentence.

In fact, after living here for so long, Xia Yunxi also noticed it.

However, she was very curious: "What about Jinchen when he was a child?"

Li Hanting looked up at her.

"I mean, Jinchen was still a baby when he was young. Someone left work early, so who would take care of the child at night?" It couldn't be Li Hanting, it didn't look like him.

"Monthly nanny!"

Li Hanting opened his thin lips and uttered two words.

Xia Yunxi's heart suddenly ached, thinking about such a young child who didn't understand anything and had no parents by his side.

Although the Li family is wealthy and powerful, it is impossible for them to let their children suffer. But how can outsiders compare to biological parents?

She is so young that even if others take care of her, it is only for the money.

Although we may try our best, it cannot be compared with blood relatives.
