“I already have plenty of scarves, so I don’t need this one. Thank you, Dr. Xiao.”

Xiao Yu was rejected and looked somewhat embarrassed as she reached out her hand.

Su Li still didn't accept it, and lowered her head to eat fruit.

With someone watching, would she dare to accept the offer?

Meng Sangsang coughed lightly and reached out to take it. "It's nothing, it's nothing. A-Li doesn't need one, but I do. I'm missing a silk scarf in my wardrobe. Thank you, Dr. Xiao."

Qin Xuan looked at her and said coldly, "You don't look like someone who'd wear a silk scarf. Are you sure you'll wear it?"

"None of your business!"

Meng Sangsang, under the table, raised her high heel and kicked him.

Seeing that Su Li didn't want Xiao Yu's things, Quan Ye looked away.

Su Li breathed a sigh of relief; this feeling of being at the mercy of others was truly unpleasant.

Just then, I felt a slight tug on my skirt.

Looking down, she saw a little guy wearing denim overalls standing next to her.

At around three years old, she was exquisitely beautiful, with a pair of clear, bright eyes staring straight at her.

Looking at such an adorable person, Su Li's heart was melting.

She couldn't help but reach out and gently stroke the child's head. "What an adorable baby! Whose child is this?"

Ye Shi got up and came over, saying, "I just had the nanny feed him next door, why did he suddenly come here?"

Upon closer inspection, the child's features are remarkably similar to Fu Zelian's; he's practically a mini-version of him.

I heard that Ye Shi and Fu Zelian had a son after they got married, and the child in front of me is that child.

Ye Shi sat down and took the child into her arms, squeezing the child's little hand. "Xiao Zhe, this is Aunt Su Li. Introduce her to Auntie?"

Xiao Zhe blushed and shyly hid in Ye Shi's arms.

What an adorable little guy!

Su Li looked at him with great affection and reached out her hand, saying, "Can I hug him?"

"Of course you can."

Su Li held the child in her arms, radiating maternal love, gently squeezing the child's little hands and feet, her affection for the child welling up spontaneously.

Xiao Zhe was also very curious about her, staring intently at her face.

Meng Sangsang walked over and said, "This little guy really knows how to recognize people. When he came over just now, I tried to tease him for a long time, but he didn't respond to me. He wouldn't even let me hug him. But now he's willing to let you hug him."

Qin Xuan interjected, "That must be because the child thinks you're too fierce and is afraid to let you hold him."

"Go to hell, eat your food."

Ye Shi had her bodyguard bring over the child's dinner, while Su Li held the child and fed him bite by bite.

Ye Shi said in surprise, "Our Xiao Zhe is shy and usually doesn't let strangers touch him, but now he seems to like you quite a bit."

"Really? I think the little guy is very fun."

Seeing how patient and meticulous Su Li was with the child, Quan Ye, sitting opposite her, had a slightly deeper look in his eyes. He gently turned the teacup on the table with one hand, lost in thought.

Fu Zelian raised his glass and clinked it against his, saying, whether intentionally or unintentionally, "If you also like children, you can have one."

Quan Ye didn't speak, but picked up his wine glass and took a small sip.

Fu Zelian curled his lips, "What, you think the people I chose for the past weren't good enough? Were they not pretty enough or gentle enough?"

"Tacky."

"So that means none of them are as good as Su Li?"

Quan Ye glanced at him coldly, "You really like meddling in other people's business, don't you?"

No, let's stick to the facts.

"Don't send me any more women in the future, I'm not interested."

Halfway through the meal, the restaurant manager arranged for a dance troupe to come in and sing and dance.

These dancers, dressed in revealing Tang Dynasty costumes, each with a slender waist and graceful movements, were like celestial beings descended to earth.

Beautiful music filled the private room, and with fine wine and beautiful women by one's side, it was a truly joyous occasion.

The men present were all extraordinary individuals, and the dancers tried to get as close to them as possible while dancing, throwing flirtatious glances, striking seductive poses, and making all sorts of small gestures.

Some even boldly approached Quan Ye, touching the back of his chair and swaying their hips...

Who could resist such blatant seduction?

Meng Sangsang scoffed, "Why should only beautiful women be allowed to dance? We want to see handsome men show off their abs!"
