Chapter 40 I simply don't want them to take advantage of you.



Seeing Lu Shiyan calmly put away his phone, Jiang Li couldn't help but ask the question that had been bothering her.

"Ayan, why are all those people asking if your account was hacked?"

"Because I changed my profile picture." Lu Shiyan didn't hide anything and told the truth.

Jiang Li: "???"

Can simply changing a profile picture really cause such a huge stir?

Goodness, all she could say was goodness!

“Jiang Jiang…” Seeing Jiang Li’s puzzled expression, Lu Shiyan sighed and said, “You know, I didn’t have any profile pictures that I liked before, so I just used a random one. Because that picture was so simple, it became a symbol of mystery, aloofness, and unapproachability in other people’s eyes…”

"So... you changed to such a cute profile picture, and those people realized that you are completely different from the person they know, so they think that your account might have been changed?" Following Lu Shiyan's guidance, Jiang Li understood those people's thoughts.

The style of these two pictures does indeed change quite a bit.

"Yes."

"Aren't you going to reply to them?" Jiang Li asked again.

“No need.” Lu Shiyan shook his head, then his eyes flickered slightly as he added, “I can just post it on my WeChat Moments, and that will solve the problem once and for all.”

So Lu Shiyan went to his WeChat Moments and posted a message.

Y: My account wasn't hacked, so I won't reply to everyone individually. There's no need for everyone to send their greetings. I've just recently started to like these cute and adorable pictures. [Images][Images]

At the end, Lu Shiyan also attached two pictures.

One is her own new profile picture, and the other is Jiang Li's profile picture.

Jiang Li saw Lu Shiyan's post on WeChat Moments and then saw her own profile picture.

She glanced at Lu Shiyan. "Why did you post my profile picture along with it?"

"I just felt that one profile picture was too lonely," Lu Shiyan replied without changing his expression. "Besides, I changed my profile picture because of yours. Putting these two pictures together is just right, isn't it?"

Jiang Li: "..."

That makes some sense.

But it doesn't seem to make any sense.

Never mind, it's not a big deal, no need to worry about it so much.

Having shifted her attention, Jiang Li didn't notice the comments under Lu Shiyan's message.

Eight out of ten people were asking if something was wrong with Lu Shiyan.

Of course, no one received a reply.

Half an hour passed quickly, and Jiang Li took out the water.

She made a surprising discovery...

The water looks the same when it's put in as it looks when it's taken out.

This means that...

Placing food in the ring's space will freeze the food.

That's really...

Very good!

"When I have time, I'll prepare more food for you, so you can eat what's in stock when I'm away on business or don't have time to cook." When Lu Shiyan learned about this function of the ring's space, his first reaction was...

Very good, very practical.

After all, they had already witnessed that mysterious power.

This is nothing.

"That's too much trouble for you, Ayan," Jiang Li said, her eyes sparkling, though she remained polite. "It's already embarrassing enough to freeload, and to ask you to prepare food supplies for me on top of that is just..."

"Given our relationship, this is nothing. Jiang Jiang, you don't need to take it to heart."

Jiang Li: "???"

What is our relationship?

Is it the sugar daddy and his little Taoist master?

Just as Jiang Li was about to say something, Lu Shiyan walked towards the kitchen, saying as he went, "The lotus seed, red date, and white fungus soup is almost done. I'll go and ladle it out for you to cool down. If you put it in now, it will be too hot for you to drink later. Let it cool to a suitable temperature before putting it away."

Jiang Li, the little foodie, immediately followed after them eagerly.

I must say, this lotus seed, red date, and white fungus soup is exceptionally well-cooked; it looks very appetizing.

Jiang Li, who was already full, felt she could have another bowl.

Seeing through Jiang Li's thoughts, Lu Shiyan raised his hand and tapped Jiang Li's nose, "Little glutton, you're not allowed to eat anymore!"

"I'll just taste it." Jiang Li winked at Lu Shiyan and cutely held up one finger. "Just one sip."

“No.” Lu Shiyan resolutely refused her. “Be good, listen to me, drink it before bed.”

"Alright then." Jiang Li glanced at it longingly again, and finally comforted herself, "Although I can't drink it now, it's all mine anyway, so I'm not in a hurry."

"It's good that you think that way." Lu Shiyan raised his hand and gently flicked Jiang Li's nose. "Besides, you just finished eating. If you eat again now, it will put more strain on your stomach and won't be good for your health."

"Okay, okay." Jiang Li touched the tip of her nose that had been scratched, her face turning even redder. "You're so nagging!"

Lu Shiyan: "..."

Once the lotus seed, red date, and white fungus soup had cooled down considerably, Jiang Li put it away before leaving Lu Shiyan's house.

Lu Shiyan insisted on taking her back.

Jiang Li's expression turned resentful. "Last time you took me home, Mr. Jiang ran into us. He told me not to hang out with shady people."

Lu Shiyan was taken aback. "Who? Who is this shady character?"

Jiang Li stared at Lu Shiyan without saying a word.

Lu Shiyan sighed, "It seems I need to find some time to pay a visit."

"You absolutely mustn't!" Jiang Li's expression immediately became agitated. "If Mr. Jiang finds out that I'm acquainted with you, that would be a real problem."

"Could it be that in Jiang Jiang's eyes, I am someone who can't be seen by others?"

“I’m afraid the Jiang family will use this as an excuse to ask you for favors.” Jiang Li looked displeased and pouted, “Don’t you know who you are? If they find out I’m involved with you, won’t they cling to me like glue? That won’t do!”

"Then should I thank Jiang Jiang for considering my needs?" Lu Shiyan asked with a smile in his eyes.

Jiang Li looked away and snorted, "Tch, I just don't want them to take advantage of you."

Lu Shiyan: "..."

The Jiang family is doing quite well, so if the two sides really cooperate, it wouldn't be considered that the Jiang family would gain an advantage.

However, Jiang's family was indeed somewhat above their station.

"Alright, let's not talk about this anymore. I'm going back now, you should go back too." Jiang Li urged Lu Shiyan to leave.

Lu Shiyan left, looking back every few steps, clearly reluctant to leave.

After seeing Lu Shiyan turn and leave, Jiang Li tiptoed around to the wall next to her window, and swiftly climbed over the wall and jumped back into her room through the window.

Lu Shiyan, who witnessed all of this: "..."

That's a bit too practiced of him to climb over the wall and get back to his room.

What kind of life does Jiang Jiang lead every day in the Jiang family?

I really want to take my future wife away from the Jiang family as soon as possible.

However, Lu Shiyan quickly suppressed his thoughts.

His wife went down the mountain to sever ties with the Jiang family, given his current situation...

It would be better if his wife stayed at the Jiang family's house for a while longer.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have succeeded in catching up with her, and she would have finished what she needed to do...

Then she can just pack up and leave without a care in the world, right?

No, absolutely not!
