After a long time, Chen Yu slowly let go of Li Shu, gently tucked the hair on her face behind her ears, then stood up and walked towards the kitchen.
Li Shu curled up in the sofa, her raven-black eyelashes slightly closed. She raised her hand to touch her slightly hot cheek, and didn't care what he suddenly stood up to do.
When Shen Yu returned to the living room again, he had something in his hand.
"Let's go. I'll take you back."
Hearing this, Li Shu raised her eyes and looked at him, "Ah, okay."
She stood up and looked down, her eyes falling on the transparent box in Shen Yu's hand, which contained an eight-inch cake.
Li Shu's eyes flickered slightly, "Is this the cake you asked me to get?"
Shen Yu hummed, walked forward, took her hand naturally, and interlocked their fingers, "Don't you like blueberry cake?"
Li Shu curled her fingers and whispered, "That's thoughtful, Instructor Shen."
Chen Yu held her hand tightly, lifted his foot and led her towards the door, "It's not enough."
Li Shu curled the corners of her lips, her brows softened, and her voice was filled with laughter, "Then keep working hard."
Shen Yu nodded slightly, a faint smile appearing in his eyes, "Okay."
Soon, the two of them arrived in front of the Ji family villa.
Chen Yu released his grip and handed the cake in his other hand to Li Shu, "Come in."
Li Shu took it, nodded obediently, said hello to Shen Yu, and walked towards the villa.
Shen Yu didn't turn around and leave until the girl disappeared from his sight.
After Li Shu walked into the villa, she went straight to the kitchen. She opened the refrigerator, put the cake she was holding in it, then turned and left the kitchen.
......
Ji Qianya was in a bad mood, so she didn't go downstairs to eat in the evening.
But the main reason was that she didn't want to meet Ji Jingchen, fearing that he would suddenly ask her to move out after seeing her.
At this moment, she felt hungry, but the servants who cooked had already gone to rest. After thinking about it, she went downstairs to the kitchen to see if there was anything to eat in the refrigerator.
She opened the refrigerator and the first thing she saw was the unopened cake on the top shelf.
Ji Qianya's eyes flashed with surprise when she saw this. She remembered that when she opened the refrigerator to get a drink in the afternoon, she didn't see any cake.
Could it be that Ji Jingchen bought it?
But she also remembered that Ji Jingchen and Li Shu were not holding the cake when they came back.
And no one has birthdays during this time.
Could it be that Ji Si ordered the cake for her in advance when he comes back tomorrow, wanting her to find it herself and give her a surprise?
Thinking of this, Ji Qianya raised her hand and took the cake out of the refrigerator, "As long as it's not Li Shu's, it's fine."
She undid the ribbon, opened the cake box, took a plate and knife from the sideboard, and cut a large piece directly onto the plate.
Ji Qianya hummed a little tune, walked to the small dining table beside her with the plate in her hand, pulled out a chair and sat down, and started eating the blueberry cake on the plate.
She took a bite and put it in her mouth. Her eyes lit up and she was a little surprised. She didn't expect the cake to be so delicious.
It just so happened that she was very hungry, so she quickly finished the large piece of cake on the plate.
As if she wasn't full yet, she took the plate and cut another piece.
After finishing eating again, Ji Qianya wiped her mouth with a tissue, stood up, put the remaining cake back into the box, and then put it back in the refrigerator.
Ji Qianya picked up her phone, opened WeChat, and sent a message to Ji Si.
【Third brother, I like cake very much! 】
Ji Si was probably busy, so he didn't reply immediately.
Ji Qianya was not in a hurry. She turned off her phone and left the kitchen.
When she went upstairs to her room and took a shower, the cell phone she left on the bed suddenly rang.
Ji Qianya walked to the bed, bent down and picked up the phone. It was a reply message from Ji Si.
What cake?
Ji Qianya thought Ji Si was playing dumb to tease her.
"Third brother, stop pretending. I ate two pieces. They're really delicious."
Ji Si was quite confused when he saw the message sent by Ji Qianya.
【Qianya, what are you talking about? What am I pretending for?】
Ji Qianya's face froze, and she realized that she might have misunderstood.
I found a cake in my refrigerator at home. I thought it was something you bought for me... I even opened it and ate it...
Ji Si: [What's the big deal? Just eat it. Since it's in the refrigerator at home, you can just eat it as you like.]
When Ji Qianya heard him say this, her expression eased a little. After all, Ji Si was right. The things in the refrigerator were meant to be eaten.
"Well, Third Brother, it's getting late. You should get some rest early and don't work too hard."
Ji Si: [Okay, you should go to bed early too.]
Ji Qianya sent a good night emoticon back, then slowly sat down on the edge of the bed, and couldn't help but wonder who bought the cake in the refrigerator.
Now that Ji Si is ruled out, the only one left is Ji Yanli.
But she remembered that Ji Yanli didn't really like sweets, so could it be...that he bought it for Li Shu?!
Ji Qianya's face instantly turned ugly, and there was some panic in her eyes. If it was really bought by Ji Yanli, and now she had opened it and eaten it, wouldn't she be doomed when he came back tomorrow and found out?
She took a deep breath, pinched her fingertips into her palms, and forced herself to calm down. Everything was still uncertain, and it was not necessarily bought by Ji Yanli. She was just scaring herself.
Besides, it’s just a cake, just eat it. At worst, I can just buy him a new one to compensate him.
Thinking of this, Ji Qianya was not so panicked anymore. She stood up, walked to the dressing table, sat down, and started applying makeup on her face.
......
The next day, Li Shu slept until she woke up naturally.
She yawned, and her beautiful eyes were filled with mist, hazy and moist.
Li Shu turned over, reached out to pick up the phone that was charging on the bedside, and looked at the time. It was almost ten o'clock.
After she replied to the message on WeChat, she threw back the quilt and got out of bed.
After washing up, I heard my phone vibrate.
She walked to the bed, bent down to pick up her phone, opened WeChat, and saw a message from Ji Yanli.
[Xiaoshu, my second brother will be home in ten minutes. Are you awake?]
Li Shu smoothed her hair, walked to the table, pulled out a chair and sat down. [Just woke up a while ago.]
Ji Yanli: [Okay, by the way, your third brother is coming back today too.]
Li Shu's beautiful eyebrows slightly raised, her slender fingers tapped the phone screen lightly, and asked: "Second brother, did you ask him to come back?"
Ji Yanli: [Well, it just so happens that Big Brother is here too, let's call him back to get together.]
Li Shu leaned back in her chair, a casual expression on her face. [Like this.]
Ji Yanli: [See you later.]
Li Shu replied "Yeah" and turned off her phone, then stood up and left the room.
