"Just kidding." Jiang Li noticed that both of them were staring at her, then gave a blank and innocent look. "Did I guess right?"
“Miss Jiang is right, several companies have indeed extended offers to me.” Song Gui sighed, then continued, “However, this is not the reason I rejected Lu’s Group. The main reason is related to my family affairs, so…”
Jiang Li nodded, indicating that she understood. "Is it your father who doesn't want you to go out to work and wants you to follow in his footsteps?"
A hint of melancholy crept onto Song Gui's pale face. "That's roughly the idea."
"If you had to decide for yourself, would you rather inherit the family business or do what you love?" Jiang Li thought for a moment and then asked.
“Sometimes it’s no use what I think.” Song Gui’s expression became even more distressed. “My father’s decisions are far greater than my wishes.”
Jiang Li stared intently at Song Gui for a few moments, then suddenly laughed, "How about we make a bet?"
"What?"
"Let's bet on whether I can get your father to relent and agree to stop interfering with what you want to do. Shall we bet?"
"It's no use, my father won't agree."
"I'm just asking you, are you willing to bet?" Jiang Li's tone was very serious. "If I lose, I won't charge you a single penny after I wake your father up. But if I win, I hope you can join the Lu family."
Since this is the kind of talent that Ayan needs, she naturally has to help.
It's something that can be done simply by talking.
It's very simple.
Song Gui stared intently at Jiang Li, a glint of light flashing in his eyes, "Are you serious?"
This bet did him no harm whatsoever.
Jiang Li nodded. "So, are you in or not?"
"Okay, I'll bet!"
Song Gui led Jiang Li to see her father.
Master Song was lying on the bed at this moment, looking very peaceful.
Others couldn't see anything, but Jiang Li could see the black aura surrounding him.
"Have you moved anything in the room?" Jiang Li asked, looking around the room.
Song Gui nodded, "Because I don't know why my father suddenly fell into a coma, I don't allow anyone to touch anything in the room. The room is exactly as it was when my father was in a coma."
Jiang Li walked around the room.
There was nothing else unusual, except for that pinch of incense ash, which she found very offensive.
Jiang Li picked up some incense ash and smelled it; her guess had come true.
“Your father’s problem isn’t serious; he’s just trapped in a dream because of the incense he made.” Jiang Li said speechlessly, “Actually, if you hadn’t asked me to come over, he would have woken up after seven days.”
Of course, if we bring her here, we can use some simple and direct methods to wake him up sooner.
Song Gui: "..."
For a moment, I didn't know how to respond.
"I beg Miss Jiang to lend a helping hand and help my father wake up quickly," Song Gui pleaded after thinking for a moment.
Putting everything else aside, just sleeping there for seven days without eating or drinking would be too much for the body to handle.
This is the fourth day already; we can't delay any longer.
“Okay,” Jiang Li replied. “Bring me the materials your father bought for making incense.”
"good."
Once she had the goods, Jiang Li began making incense.
They used the same ingredients, but the incense they made was completely different.
Even someone like Song Gui, who doesn't know anything about this, could smell something different.
The incense made by Jiang Li, when lit, has a delicate and elegant fragrance that gives people a sense of peace and tranquility.
The initial feelings of irritability and anxiety gradually dissipated in the fragrance.
"I'm going out for a walk. Call me when you've finished burning these incense sticks." Jiang Li stretched and went out.
The fragrance made her feel drowsy.
Jiang Li walked forward without noticing the steps, and accidentally stepped into one, falling down.
Just when Jiang Li thought she was about to fall flat on her face, she stumbled into a warm embrace.
It smells so familiar, so comforting.
Then……
Jiang Li closed her eyes in the other person's arms.
Lu Shiyan: "..."
This little girl is really carefree.
Without even looking at the person, they just fell asleep peacefully. Aren't they afraid that he might be a bad person?
Lu Shiyan scooped Jiang Li up in his arms and carried her out of the Song family's courtyard amidst the horrified gazes of the others.
When Lu Shiyan learned from his secretary that Jiang Li was here, he tidied up and drove over.
When he got off the bus, he happened to run into one of the people he had met that day.
The other party naturally invited Lu Shiyan in with utmost respect.
They dared not neglect the young master's people.
Jiang Li only slept for five minutes before waking up.
When she opened her eyes, she found herself still in Lu Shiyan's arms.
"Ayan?" Jiang Li sat up immediately, rubbing her eyes, still somewhat incredulous. "Am I dreaming? What are you doing here?"
"Of course I'm not dreaming! I heard you were here, and you even made a bet with someone for me. It's only right and proper for me to come, isn't it?" Lu Shiyan looked at Jiang Li with a smile, his eyes filled with unyielding affection.
Jiang Li felt her face flush under Lu Shiyan's gaze. She snorted and looked away, "I just did it on a whim, it's nothing serious, you didn't need to come."
“But I wanted to come over,” Lu Shiyan replied, then took out a few lunchboxes from the side and changed the subject, “You must be hungry after being so busy for so long, right?”
Jiang Li nodded.
I'm hungry.
As Lu Shiyan opened the lunchbox, he said with dissatisfaction, "The Song family really doesn't know how to do things properly. It's already past one o'clock, and they haven't even prepared lunch for you. It's really too much!"
He arrived before eleven o'clock.
Seeing Jiang Li diligently making incense while the others carefully accompanied her, completely forgetting about lunch, Lu Shiyan went to a nearby restaurant, paid for his own lunch, and brought it over.
Jiang Li ate the lunch prepared by Lu Shiyan, revealing a satisfied expression.
After eating and drinking to their hearts' content, Jiang Li looked at Lu Shiyan earnestly and said, "Ayan, you are so kind."
Lu Shiyan instantly felt as if the distance between him and Jiang Li had shortened. While thanking the Song family for their incompetence, he said insincerely, "It's only fair to reciprocate. You're good to me, so of course I should be good to you too."
Jiang Li chuckled and yawned, muttering, "I'm going to sleep for a bit. If anyone needs me, just wake me up."
“Okay.” Lu Shiyan packed up his lunchbox and sat down next to Jiang Li. “You’re not comfortable sleeping like this. You can lean on my shoulder.”
As he spoke, Lu Shiyan gently lifted Jiang Li's head and placed it against his shoulder so she could sleep more comfortably.
Jiang Li didn't refuse and fell asleep peacefully.
Lu Shiyan received a message from his secretary and called for Jiang Li just after three o'clock.
"Hmm..." Jiang Li was still a little sleepy and unconsciously whined to Lu Shiyan, "I'm so sleepy, I don't want to get up..."
"If you don't want to get up, then sleep a little longer." Lu Shiyan's voice was gentle and pleasant, making Jiang Li shake her head involuntarily.
Jiang Li suddenly opened her eyes and stared straight at Lu Shiyan, "Say a few more words to me."
"Huh? What did you say?"
"Say whatever you want."
"Hmm..." Lu Shiyan pondered for a moment, staring into Jiang Li's eyes, and said, "Jiang Jiang's eyes are big and round. When she's not fully awake, she looks like a harmless cat, so cute that it makes you want to..."
"What are you thinking about?" Jiang Li couldn't help but ask, seeing that Lu Shiyan didn't continue.
“Darling.” Lu Shiyan’s lips curved into a smile.
Jiang Li's brain went blank for a moment.
relative?
What kissing?
He...he...he...
What did he mean by that?
