Chapter 422 I dug him out of bed



"Why are you back again?" Jiang Li's lips twitched involuntarily when she saw Lu Shiyan appear beside her. "Didn't I tell you not to take me home?"

Lu Shiyan rummaged through his pockets and said innocently, "Jiang Jiang, I forgot to take my car keys."

Jiang Li: "..."

"And I didn't bring my briefcase either."

Jiang Li: "..."

Okay...

I was so focused on eating that I didn't even consider such an important issue.

The two went upstairs together. Lu Shiyan took his things, asked Jiang Li for a goodbye kiss, and then left happily.

After Lu Shiyan left, Jiang Li continued to study the talisman.

For her, this is the most urgent matter.

Lu Shiyan went to the company, where he worked while also drafting a guest list.

certainly……

The guest list wasn't something he could decide on his own; it required the collective efforts of his family's various connections. He first compiled his own list, then had others draft theirs, and together they created a complete guest list.

Having done all that, Lu Shiyan began to research the dishes for the wedding banquet.

It needs to look good, taste good, and have a good meaning.

He can refer to dishes that others have used before and then improve upon them.

It must be said that having cooking skills can play a significant role in planning the menu.

after all……

Those who don't understand might make a mistake.

But he understood that once the plan was set, it could be tested or improved to create a dish that would satisfy him and his wife, which was quite simple.

Once all these steps are planned, the chef will be responsible for preparing the food. After you've tried the chef's cooking, there shouldn't be any problems.

Three days...

Lu Shiyan had already prepared the menu.

On the very night the menu was finalized, Lu Shiyan pre-ordered a large amount of ingredients.

The ingredients arrived the next morning.

Jiang Li was taken aback by Lu Shiyan's display of wealth. Looking at all the ingredients, she turned to Lu Shiyan and asked, "Ayan, why did you buy so many ingredients?"

There were so many that she felt she couldn't even count them all.

“It’s the weekend, no work today, and I’ve already decided on the menu for the wedding banquet, so…” Lu Shiyan smiled slightly at Jiang Li, “Today is our tasting session, Jiang Jiang, are you looking forward to it?”

Upon hearing about food, Jiang Li's eyes lit up instantly. She nodded repeatedly, "Looking forward to it, of course I'm looking forward to it, but... is it just the two of us tasting the dishes?"

Doesn't this make you feel a little lonely?

"Jiang Jiang, don't you want to spend some time alone with me?" Lu Shiyan looked at Jiang Li with a slightly aggrieved expression.

Jiang Li rolled her eyes. "Haven't we had enough time alone together already?"

Lu Shiyan: "..."

“It’s the weekend today, and Lu Jiming is off work, so I’ll call him and Fu Ying up to help me with the food tasting.” Jiang Li made the decision directly. “You’re busy in the kitchen, so it would be a bit boring if I didn’t do something. Fu Ying and Lu Jiming are both picky eaters, so they can offer their opinions.”

Before Lu Shiyan could speak, Jiang Li sent messages to the two of them.

However, it was still a bit early, and Lu Jiming, who rarely gets to spend the weekend, was probably still sleeping in, so he didn't reply to the message.

Fu Ying replied quite quickly, saying she would come up in a little while.

Jiang Li looked at Fu Ying's message, thought for a moment, and then sent another message to her third senior brother.

She asked if Gong Yu was in the capital.

Do you have anything to do today?

After receiving a questioning reply from Gong Yu, Jiang Li then mentioned the food tasting, and subtly hinted at it...

He wasn't the only one who came to try the food.

Gong Yu naturally understood the implication. He was indeed in the capital today, but it was a bit far away, and it would take him some time to get there.

Jiang Li said she wasn't in a hurry, after all...

They have a whole day.

Having settled this, Jiang Li happily awaited Lu Shiyan's feeding.

Fu Ying was very quick; she arrived in twenty minutes.

Of course, she was also dragging along Lu Jiming, who looked sleepy.

"I figured you wouldn't just ask me to do the food tasting, especially since this guy doesn't have anything to do today, so I dragged him out of bed." Fu Ying pointed to Lu Jiming, who was still half-asleep beside her, and explained to Jiang Li.

Jiang Li nodded and smiled, "I did send him a message, but he didn't reply. Judging from his expression, he must have stayed up very late last night."

Fu Ying shook her head. "I don't know. I used to be able to see him alive, but after a long time, I don't know when he went back or when he left. Even though we lived together, I felt like I was living alone."

Thinking about it carefully, it seems like she hasn't seen Lu Jiming for many days, except for today.

The young master of the Lu family was perfectly capable of living a comfortable and carefree life, but he almost died from the path he chose.

However, everyone has their own ambitions, and this cannot be forced.

Sometimes, seeing Lu Jiming's happy expression because of the progress in his research, Fu Ying was also very happy for him.

Lu Jiming didn't hear the conversation between the two people at all. He walked to the sofa next to him, slumped down on it, and quickly fell asleep again.

Jiang Li: "..."

That must have been really tough.

Fu Ying pouted, "Look how tired he is, he'll probably be back around four or five o'clock again."

"He goes home so late every day?" Jiang Li asked, somewhat surprised.

“Normally he doesn’t, but when he’s working on a research project, he usually comes back very late, sometimes as early as one or two in the morning, sometimes as late as four or five. Of course, sometimes he just doesn’t go back at all, probably because it’s too late, and he just sleeps in the lab.” Fu Ying explained simply, “At first, I would be woken up by the noise of him coming back, but after I found out his schedule… I was completely unaffected…”

Rest as you should, and ignore the noise outside as you should.

Knowing that it was Lu Jiming who had returned and not a thief, she felt very relieved.

Jiang Li glanced at the sleeping Lu Jiming again, as if she had thought of something. Suddenly, she smiled and mobilized the energy in the air, drawing it into Lu Jiming's body.

Visible to the naked eye...

Lu Jiming's somewhat pale complexion looked much better, even a bit rosy.

Fu Ying gave Jiang Li a thumbs up, "You're amazing! How did you do that? Can you teach me?"

Jiang Li wasn't sure if a Hou could learn it, so she said, "I can teach you, but I can't guarantee you'll learn it. If you can't learn it, don't blame me."

"Don't worry, don't worry, if I can't learn it, it's because I'm not talented enough, how can I blame you?" Fu Ying was very self-aware, so she waited eagerly for Jiang Li's instruction.

And you know what...

Even though she's a mythical beast, she still has some talent in this area.

That's not...

She drew a tiny bit of spiritual energy into Lu Jiming's body.

Although……

It looks like...

It's no different from not having it at all.
