When Li Yang saw Ji Huaizhi's reaction, she suddenly understood. She patted Ji Huaizhi's arm in understanding and said, "Well, I understand."

Men always have needs.

Even though she despised men doing this, if this man was Ji Huaizhi...if he helped her, could she say "no"?

Besides, as a fake daughter-in-law, she had no right to control him.

Ji Huaizhi: "..."

Somehow, Li Yang's understanding not only did not make Ji Huaizhi relax, but instead his expression changed immediately.

He raised his peach blossom eyes and glanced at her coldly: "Then tell me, what do you know?"

Ji Huaizhi's eyes were cold and even his emotions were indifferent, but it was impossible to avoid him.

Li Yang suddenly remembered the scene that night when she had just finished taking a shower and was wearing pajamas when he suddenly came home.

Li Yang felt inexplicably flustered and turned her head away, avoiding his gaze: "Well, I don't understand anything."

But then she heard Ji Huaizhi ask her, "You were so angry when you caught your cousin's husband cheating on you, but you don't care about me?"

"Ah?" Li Yang raised his head and stared at Ji Huaizhi in a daze, finding it difficult to digest his words for a moment.

Ji Huaizhi looked at her confused expression, sighed, and tapped her head lightly, as if helpless: "Forget it, let's go home."

After saying that, he left the dessert shop first without waiting for her to answer.

Li Yang looked at Ji Huaizhi's back in confusion, and was glad that he didn't pursue the matter of her coming here. She didn't dare to stay any longer and followed him out.

When the two returned to Yao Yunxiang's classmate's house, Yao Yunxiang had just finished chatting with her classmates and was still not satisfied.

As soon as she saw Ji Huaizhi beside Li Yang, she smiled and said to Li Yang, "You really managed to catch the adulterer!"

Whenever Li Yang heard the word "catching an adulterer", he couldn't help but hold his forehead.

Facing Ji Huaizhi's half-smile, she stepped forward, covered Yao Yunxiang's mouth, and threatened in a low voice: "I'm warning you, don't say anything nonsense with this mouth anymore."

In front of Ji Huaizhi, Yao Yunxiang did not dare to be too presumptuous, so she nodded to show that she understood, and Li Yang let her go.

Fortunately, Ji Huaizhi did not pursue Yao Yunxiang's words too much and said calmly, "Go back."

Ji Huaizhi sent the two of them onto the bus and turned to leave.

Before the bus started, Li Yang poked his head out of the window and called him, "Ji Huaizhi!"

Ji Huaizhi turned around and looked at her.

As Li Yang shouted, the people sitting next to her in the car also looked at her.

Li Yang suddenly felt a little embarrassed, but continued: "I just want to ask you, are you coming back for dinner tonight?"

Hearing her words, Ji Huaizhi's originally indifferent expression relaxed a little, and he nodded and said, "Yes."

After hearing Ji Huaizhi's answer, Li Yang, who was originally worried that Ji Huaizhi would be angry, suddenly felt relieved and said, "Then I'll go to the market to buy vegetables later. What do you want to eat?"

The two have been married for more than a week, and so far Li Yang has not discovered any of Ji Huaizhi's preferences. He seems to be indifferent to everything.

What Li Yang didn't know was that what she thought was a normal conversation, in the ears of others, became a heartwarming dialogue between wife and husband. Yao Yunxiang was laughing so hard that her eyes were almost blinded, but Li Yang was still waiting there foolishly for Ji Huaizhi's answer.

She really wanted to know Ji Huaizhi's preferences.

This way, if I want to please him in the future, I’ll have a direction, right?

Ji Huaizhi glanced at the people watching the excitement around him, and curled his lips slightly: "As long as it's done by you, I like it."

"Yo!" Before Li Yang could answer, Yao Yunxiang had already taken the lead in cheering. She imitated Ji Huaizhi's tone in a deep voice, "As long as it's made by you, I like it."

As she spoke, she gently pushed Li Yang: "Oh my god, you two are so cheesy!"

The older sister at the side also laughed: "You two just got married, no wonder you're so clingy." She raised her large palm like a palm fan and punched the older brother next to her, "Learn from them. Look at you, you're always so picky."

The eldest brother covered his chest, which was hurt by the eldest sister's beating, and said in a low voice: "How could I be picky? It's obviously your cooking that is unpalatable."

Li Yang: “…”

Wasn't Ji Huaizhi trying to say that he was not picky about what she cooked? Why was it corny?

She was no longer able to cover Yao Yunxiang's mouth, and quickly waved to Ji Huaizhi: "You go ahead and do your work, I'm going back."

After saying that, Li Yang shrank back, sat upright, and was too embarrassed to look at Ji Huaizhi again.

As the sound of the car starting up rang out, only a soft "Okay" came from outside the window. Before she could investigate whether Ji Huaizhi was smiling, it had dissipated in the wind.

*

On the way back, Li Yang got off the bus two stops early.

What she didn't notice was that at the back of the crowded bus, a thin man got off behind her.

There is a vegetable market not far from the entrance of Lie Village, which is specially for villagers living nearby to buy vegetables. There is also a large agricultural and trade market two stops away. There are more options here, and people from Lie Village occasionally come here to buy vegetables.

Li Yang also had another purpose, which was to try her luck at the jade workshop street next to her. If there was no suitable jade carver here, she would go somewhere farther to look for one.

It’s not that she hasn’t considered Boss Wu, but last time she took a few glances at the jade pieces he displayed on the counter at the door. The carvings were quite exquisite, but not to the level she wanted.

How to maximize the value of a piece of jadeite raw stone, in addition to carving it beautifully and vividly, it also requires a sharp-eyed craftsman to use his rich experience to perfectly utilize every inch of the raw stone and avoid wasting even a little bit.

Li Yang first found a street of jade workshops, and observed the jades displayed along the way, trying to find some carvings that would catch his eye.

The so-called street is not very long, about one or two hundred meters in length. Now there are only some small workshops scattered here. In a few years, one-third of Guangzhou's jade processing workshops will be gathered here.

Li Yang patiently visited each store. Seeing her young age, the store owners thought she was just looking for something to see and did not greet her warmly, which made Li Yang happy and at ease.

Just when Li Yang was about to reach the end of the street and thought she would not be able to find a good jade carver, she finally found the jade she was looking for in a shop at the end.

The store is not big, about 20 to 30 square meters. There are several glass cabinets in the middle and on both sides, on which the carved jade pieces are neatly arranged according to categories.

Li Yang's eyes fell on a jade sculpture of a Bodhisattva in the middle of the shop and he couldn't move his eyes away.
