When Ye Li came downstairs after taking a bath, the whole restaurant was filled with the aroma of fresh, spicy, and numbing flavors.
Take a deep breath, and the flavor seems to permeate your entire being.
In an instant, Ye Li felt as if she had come back to life.
On the central island counter, a small pot filled with chili peppers was bubbling away in a hot, spicy red oil.
Around the hot pot, red beef and mutton, black tripe, and green lettuce and vegetables create a vibrant array of colors that are enhanced by the white island countertop, making the food even more delicious.
Thinking about how she wanted to eat hot pot before, Aunt Lan said with a troubled expression that the old housekeeper who interviewed her had specifically instructed that Master Fu had a light palate and did not like the smell of heavy oil and spicy food at home.
Ye Li looked at Fu Yanci again, feeling pleased, "For the sake of the hotpot, Fu Yanci, I forgive you!"
Fu Yanci paused in his action of putting the meat into the pot, his eyes filled with amusement.
I have to say, Ali is sometimes quite easy to coax.
"Eat quickly..."
He handed her the chopsticks and said gently, "I'll take you home after you finish eating."
"That's more like it!"
Ye Li smiled, her eyes crinkling.
Let's take another look at the time.
Ye Li: ...
It's already 11 o'clock. At this time, Mom and Aunt Lan should have been asleep long ago.
They already knew she hadn't gone back. If she rushed back at this hour, she would have to tiptoe upstairs.
Aunt Lan knew the commotion, so she wouldn't come out even if she heard it.
My mom is a light sleeper, so I'm sure I'll wake her up.
What's the difference between this and protesting too much?
But there's a big difference between going back late and not going back at all, right?
Bai Xiaoli and Hei Xiaoli engaged in a heated debate about whether or not they should go back.
Hei Xiaoli's words sealed the victory, instantly defeating Bai Xiaoli.
If you don't go back, are you sure you can get up tomorrow morning?
Once you're full, it's his turn to eat!
Ye Li: !!!
Fu Yanci paused, watching Ye Li gradually speed up her eating.
Anticipating that the girl would hesitate to go back because of Li Xueqing and Aunt Lan, he decided not to go back.
Unexpectedly, my prediction was wrong?
After eating and drinking to their hearts' content and changing clothes, the Maybach drove into the night. Fu Yanci still couldn't figure out where the problem lay.
As the car entered the residential area, Fu Yanci slowed down and then parked it a few dozen meters away from the Ye family villa.
Looking up, the entire Ye family villa was pitch black.
Afraid that even a goodnight kiss might be interpreted as him provoking her, Ye Li quickly unbuckled her seatbelt and got out of the car. Then, she stood in front of the car door and waved sweetly at him, "Fu Yanci, goodnight!"
With a bang, the car door slammed shut. Ye Li shrank her neck and jogged away.
The lamppost in front of the Ye family's house was lit. Looking at the long shadow at her feet, Ye Li felt a little guilty and moved very quietly.
He glanced back and saw that the Maybach was still parked there quietly, and the man seemed to have no intention of leaving.
Regardless of whether he could see her or not, Ye Li waved her hand, pushed open the door, and entered the courtyard.
Climb the steps.
Buzz.
The fingerprint lock opened, and the door silently opened a crack.
Ye Li slipped inside and opened the shoe cabinet.
The soft slippers had just been placed on the floor when the door to the master bedroom on the first floor opened, and a warm, dim beam of light shone out.
"Ah Li?"
Li Xueqing came out.
"mom……"
Ye Li's heart was pounding rapidly. She felt like she'd been caught in the act. "You're still awake? Did I wake you up?"
"Time to sleep."
Li Xueqing looked over gently, paused for a moment, then turned and walked towards the kitchen. "Have you been busy all day? You must be exhausted. Ali, Mom will just have some water and go to sleep. You should go upstairs, wash up, and go to bed."
"good."
With a sigh of relief, Ye Li turned and went upstairs, saying, "Goodnight, Mom."
After closing the bedroom door, Ye Li couldn't help but take out her phone and send a WeChat message to Fu Yanci: "Mom really caught me red-handed, but thankfully, I wasn't exposed!"
Putting her phone aside, Ye Li changed into her pajamas and prepared to go to sleep.
After washing her face, Ye Li looked up and her gaze fell on the bright mirror. She paused for a moment.
boom!
Blood rushed to Ye Li's head, and her face exploded with heat!
