Chapter 29: Working hard to earn money to support the family



Ever since Song Li had a falling out with the system last time, the system ran away from home in anger and has not returned since.

Song Li didn't bother to care about it. She could feel that the system was more anxious about the task than she was, and it wished that Hua Rongrong would immediately turn into the Virgin Mary of truth, goodness and beauty.

The system is not in a hurry, so why should she be in a hurry?

Song Li, feeling relaxed, enjoyed the simple and boring life of a rich man. The only thing that made him uncomfortable was that he had to deal with Huo Siyuan every day.

Even though we were just having dinner together and chatting casually.

Song Li ate and slept all day long, living a leisurely life, and his chin became rounder.

Uncle Wang was quick-eyed and immediately called the family doctor impatiently. His kind and experienced eyes were full of anticipation as he looked at the family doctor to examine her.

After the examination, the family doctor said, "Madam is in good health and in high spirits."

Uncle Wang glanced at Song Li's slightly bulging belly without giving up and asked: "Madam, are there no young masters or young ladies in your belly?"

Song Li: “…” He subconsciously tightened his abdomen.

Family doctor: "Don't worry, my wife is in good health. Pregnancy is a matter of time."

After the family doctor left, Uncle Wang sighed and looked at Song Li, "Madam, the biggest regret before the master passed away was that he didn't see you and your husband get married, and didn't see the birth of the young master and the young lady."

Song Li: "..." How do you want her to answer this?

Uncle Wang: "Are you still sleeping in a separate room from your husband?"

Song Li: "..." He looked at the ceiling and pretended not to hear.

Uncle Wang slapped his thigh and wiped his eyes. "I'm old and frail. I don't know when I'll have to go down to the underworld to find the master. I only have one small wish. Before I die, I can see and hug the young master and young lady. I will be satisfied in this life..."

Song Li: "..." With your strong and healthy body, you still have at least thirty or forty years to live. You can wait patiently and there is no need to rush.

"Madam, you and your husband should hurry up and have a little boy or girl, so that your relationship can be stable!" Seeing that Song Li didn't respond, Uncle Wang felt a little disappointed.

Uncle Wang spoke a lot in a very earnest manner, nothing more than how couples should live in harmony, love each other and cultivate their feelings.

Song Li listened with one ear and out the other, but on the surface she still looked well-behaved and obedient, and she would say "hmm" from time to time to indicate that she had heard it.

Song Li thought that the matter was over, but it turned out that she still underestimated Uncle Wang.

Song Li and Huo Siyuan now only meet once a day at dinner time, and say good night to each other before going to bed at night. Apart from that, Song Li has never had any dealings with Huo Siyuan.

In the evening, Song Li finished washing up and changed into pajamas. Just as he was about to lie down on the bed and roll around for a while before going to sleep, Uncle Wang knocked on the door holding a large fruit plate.

Song Li: "It's so late, I don't want to eat..." She has really gained a lot of weight and needs to control herself.

Song Li swallowed and glanced at the crystal clear grapes and plump orange segments reluctantly.

"It's not for you." Uncle Wang stuffed the fruit plate to Song Li with an expressionless face.

Song Li subconsciously took the fruit plate and said, "Huh?"

Uncle Wang: "These are the fruits that the gentleman likes to eat. You can take them to the gentleman."

Song Li: “…”

Uncle Wang: "Madam, my husband works so hard every day to earn money to support the family. He's so tired that he's lost a lot of weight. What's wrong with asking you to bring him some fruit?"

Uncle Wang: "You eat, sleep, drink and play at home every day. Have you ever thought about how hard and tiring your husband is running around outside every day?"

Uncle Wang: "Mr. is becoming increasingly thin due to exhaustion..."

Song Li: "I'll go, right now."

Uncle Wang finally closed his mouth with satisfaction.

Under Uncle Wang's earnest gaze, Song Li walked to the door of Huo Siyuan's room with difficulty, holding the fruit plate.

Her room and Huo Siyuan's room were next to each other, not far apart.

Song Li reached out and knocked on the door, his movements were so light that the knock was almost inaudible.

As soon as I knocked, the door opened.

Huo Siyuan's home clothes were the same blue as Song Li's, with similar styles, like couple's pajamas. He could never button the three buttons on his chest properly, always attracting people to look at his chest.

Song Li glanced at his strong and sexy waist with a little jealousy. His abdominal muscles were faintly visible under the tight fabric. Why did his waist feel thinner than hers?

"You're here." Huo Siyuan smiled happily, seeming very happy about Song Li's arrival.

Song Li is now immune to his smile.

"I'll bring you some fruit." Song Li said as he wanted to stuff the fruit plate into his hand and then leave.

Huo Siyuan didn't take it and turned slightly sideways.

Song Li looked up at him.

Song Li doesn't like men who are too tall. Even if the other party doesn't mean it, the oppressive feeling brought by the height difference still makes people feel uncomfortable.

Huo Siyuan was at least a head taller than her.

The original owner was 1.68 meters tall, so Huo Siyuan must be at least 1.9 meters tall.

Song Li took a step back, trying to keep some distance.

Her action caused Huo Siyuan's smiling brows to frown slightly, then they relaxed again, "Ali, come in."

Without waiting for Song Li to react, Huo Siyuan turned around and walked in.

Song Li was stunned for a moment, and could only bite the bullet and follow with the fruit plate.

Huo Siyuan's room was large, consisting of a living room, bedroom, study, and cloakroom. Contrary to his personality, the room was very cozy, with warm colors, warm wooden furniture, and a plush carpet that covered the entire room.

Song Li couldn't help but take a few more looks out of curiosity. He thought Huo Siyuan's room would be in the monotonous and cold black and white colors, giving people a very depressing and indifferent feeling. This is in line with his personality and style.

I didn’t expect that the decoration was like that of a warm man.

"Do you like it?" Huo Siyuan, who was walking beside her, suddenly asked.

Song Li: "What do you like?"

Huo Siyuan stopped and looked into her eyes with a smile: "If you like, you can move in with me."

Song Li laughed dryly: "Haha, you are so humorous."

Huo Siyuan was helpless and couldn't help but reach out and pull the slightly curled hair on Song Li's head.

Song Li took a step back in shock, and the fruit plate even shook.

Huo Siyuan suppressed the slight discomfort in his heart, maintained a gentle smile, withdrew his hand, and walked towards the study.

Song Li had no choice but to follow.

There was a laptop on the desk with a half-processed document on the screen. Huo Siyuan sat down and looked at Song Li who put the fruit plate in front of the desk and wanted to go out.

"etc."

Song Li turned his head and showed a well-behaved and harmless smile: "Anything else you want to say?"

Huo Siyuan looked at the fruit plate on the desk, opened his mouth slightly towards Song Li, and motioned her to feed him.

Song Li understood immediately and glared at him: "Don't you have hands? Do you want me to feed you?"

Huo Siyuan glanced at his hands on the keyboard, then said to Song Li helplessly, "I still have work to do."

"Then eat after you finish your work."

“But I want to eat now.”

Song Li shuddered inexplicably. This tone, was he trying to act coquettishly with her?! It was terrifying.
