After finishing all this, Shen Yanming put the watermelon rinds and seeds into a trash bag and placed it by the door, thinking he would throw it away when he got back.
Then he washed his hands and the spoon before returning to the bedroom and waking up the sleeping Bi Qiaoan.
Bi Qiaoan opened her eyes groggily and found that the light in the bedroom was dim, so she knew it was getting late.
She leaned against the headboard to try and clear her head. Once she was a little more awake, she went to the bathroom to wash her face with Shen Yanming's help.
After that, she changed out of her nightgown, put on her underwear and maternity dress again, and went downstairs with her husband to get the car.
When Shen Yanming was at the door, he picked up the black plastic bag. He paused on the first floor, went out to throw away the trash, and then took the elevator down to the underground parking garage with Bi Qiaoan.
The underground parking garage was dimly lit at this time, and the residents who had come here to cool off and escape the high temperature had already gone home.
Shen Yanming opened the car door, let his wife sit down, and then sat in the driver's seat, started the car, and headed towards the escort team.
It seemed like the shift had changed for the night, because when Comrade Shen went out, no one from the security office came out to stop his car, which made him feel a little empty inside.
Bi Qiaoan smiled when she saw his constipated expression. She asked, "What's wrong with you?"
Shen Yanming glanced at her before saying, "No one said goodbye when I came out. It's really not used to that."
After saying that, he laughed, "That Chen Shunwei guy makes me subconsciously slow down every time I go through the access control, afraid that he'll rush out to greet me. But this time he didn't, and I felt like I was caught off guard."
It seems I've been overestimating myself.
"Maybe he's not here. Besides, he has limited energy; he can't be watching our car every day. If that were the case, I doubt you'd be happy."
Shen Yanming nodded. "Yes, I still value my privacy. But honey, didn't you realize I was just making a self-deprecating joke?"
Bi Qiaoan nodded, "Honey, didn't you realize that I was joking with a straight face?"
The two were silent for a moment, then burst into laughter.
----------
In Suzhou, Li Sikai's request to Qin Yuncheng to find Tao Jianian's "ex-wife" made progress on Wednesday.
It is said that after a lot of communication, Tao Jianian's "ex-wife" Zuo Yiling finally agreed to continue taking care of him as her "ex-husband".
And so, led by the guards, they came to take Tao Jianian "home".
When Zuo Yiling was found by the guards, she was completely stunned. She never expected that Tao Jianian would ask her to go back and take care of him.
When he wanted to leave, she absolutely refused.
Tao Jianian said that the other party was a spatial ability user, and he was only pretending for their future. Once he got information about the spatial ability or obtained the spatial ability, he would come back to pick her up.
Enticed by such a beautiful yet illusory promise, Zuo Yiling became greedy. She let Tao Jianian leave, becoming a "discarded wife" in the eyes of others.
But she always remembered that her husband would come back. So she just smiled and ignored the sarcastic remarks from others, never taking them to heart.
Until that aftershock, she felt a sudden panic. In her panic, she tripped over a stone and fell to the ground, cutting her forehead and drawing blood.
Already preoccupied with something on her mind, Zuo Yiling panicked upon seeing the blood flowing from her forehead and fainted.
When she woke up, she was in a tent in the South City medical ward. Before she could ask the nurses who had brought her there, she heard several people whispering among themselves.
She wanted to interrupt, but stopped when she heard Tao Jianian's name.
Then, she heard the devastating news that Tao Jianian had suffered comminuted fractures in both legs, and her tears flowed uncontrollably.
Unexpectedly, the panic I felt that afternoon foreshadowed my lover's impending doom.
What saddened her most was that after Tao Jianian's surgery, he went to see Yuan Ruoxi in a grand manner, without mentioning her, his first wife, at all.
She didn't know what he was thinking. Could it be that years of feelings couldn't compare to a few days of passion?
At that moment, she was truly heartbroken, and the following days were like living hell.
After all, gossip about a big star and a superhuman spreads like wildfire. Even hiding in her tent every day, she could hear people talking about what happened next.
Hearing that the guards had insisted on taking care of Tao Jianian, she smiled bitterly and decided to completely forget the person in her heart.
What Zuo Yiling didn't know was that Tao Jianian didn't not want to find her; rather, he felt guilty and angry at the same time.
That's why he relied on Yuan Ruoxi and refused to add any more burden to this "innocent" woman.
It wasn't until he witnessed the absurd affair between Yuan Ruoxi, Tong Xianbao, and Lu Nanfang that he no longer wanted to get involved with them. He hoped to seek compensation through the guard team and then find a quiet place to end his remaining days.
After making this decision, when the guards asked him who he wanted to take care of, the only name that came to mind was Zuo Yiling.
And so, Zuo Yiling was found by the guard team.
They asked, "Are you still willing to take care of Tao Jianian?"
Zuo Yiling looked up in confusion, not understanding why they had asked that question.
The guard explained, "He's seriously injured and might not be able to take care of himself in the future. We need to find someone who can take care of him for the rest of his life, and your name is the first person he thinks of."
Seeing that she looked unwell and fearing she might misunderstand, the guard quickly finished speaking: "This is not to force you to accept him. Rather, we considered that you were previously married and have a deep emotional foundation, so we asked you first."
In truth, if it weren't for the third party's involvement, none of the subsequent accidents would have happened. But since it has already occurred, we must find a way to resolve it.
Regarding Tao Jianian's accident, the guard team ruled that he and Yuan Ruoxi were each responsible for half of the incident.
Yuan Ruoxi will provide 3,000 jin of grain as compensation for this incident. Tao Jianian can collect it in installments from the guard team over the next twenty years.
Furthermore, since Yuan Ruoxi was an unofficial member of the guard team, this incident was somewhat related to the guard team. Therefore, the city of Suzhou will provide a job for the person who took care of Tao Jianian as a form of indirect compensation to him.
Of course, if the caregiver fails to fulfill her obligations, we will also disqualify her from working.
As you know, in this day and age, having a stable job in the guard team is a rare and precious thing.
Moreover, because they need to take care of people with mobility issues, the positions assigned to the guards are not very demanding.
The guard laid out his conditions, trying his best to entice the other party. Seeing that they were unmoved, he had no choice but to try appealing to their emotions.
"Although it was Tao Jianian's idea to come to you, he also instructed us not to force you."
