Chapter 105 Too Ashamed to Show My Face
Yu Li, relying on the fact that even if Qi Chenyan was furious, he wouldn't dare to touch her, acted like a dead pig that wasn't afraid of boiling water.
"I'm just telling the truth. In this day and age, can't even a husband and wife tell each other the truth? And it's not that I doubt your ability, I'm just worried that you won't be able to be with me."
Completely unaware that she was repeatedly courting death, Yu Li kept babbling on and on.
Until Qi Chenyan grasped her hand, his hot breath brushing against her ear like a seductive yet deadly hook.
"Whether I can do it or not, Mrs. Qi knows best. But since Mrs. Qi doubts my abilities, then we can only verify it manually."
Yu Li blinked, asking innocently, "Manual verification? You think this is driving, or even a manual transmission car..."
Before she could finish speaking, when Qi Chenyan pulled her hand down, Yu Li's eyes widened in disbelief, followed by a flustered and disorganized reaction.
But with her limited strength, how could she possibly defeat a grown man?
Qi Chenyan not only didn't relax, but instead gave a teasing, low, wicked laugh.
"Lili, it seems you slept too much during the day, which is why you're so energetic at night. Since you can't sleep, let's do something tiring so we can get a good night's sleep, shall we?"
Yu Li: "..."
That night, Yu Li fully understood that boasting comes at a price.
One shouldn't be too arrogant, especially in front of a man with normal needs.
"No, no, this house is too old and the soundproofing is terrible. What if Grandma hears us..."
Qi Chenyan's breath grew closer and hotter: "Don't worry, the old lady doesn't live next door, but downstairs. As long as our bed doesn't shake too much, we won't disturb her."
Yu Li: "Do your colleagues know how vulgar you are?"
Qi Chenyan raised an eyebrow. "Isn't Mrs. Qi worried that she won't have a happy life with me?"
Yu Li choked.
Sure enough, one shouldn't boast about everything, otherwise she won't be able to take back her boast, and will have to pay an even greater price to repay it.
However, as Qi Chenyan said, once a person is too excited, they will only feel tired when doing tiring things.
Although I felt my hands were dirty, it was definitely a unique experience.
Qi Chenyan carried her to the bathroom for another shower. When she finally got back onto the bed, Yu Li was too tired to brag and fell asleep as soon as her head hit the pillow.

The next morning, when Yu Li went downstairs, Qi Xiaoyun and Tan Mo were already having breakfast.
Qi Xiaoyun yawned, looking extremely sleepy, and complained to Tan Mo, "This house is so old, there are even rats making a ruckus late at night."
Tan Mo asked in surprise, "A mouse? In the ceiling?"
"No, it's coming from downstairs. It's creaking and groaning, like the bed legs are unsteady and it's wobbling. So I suspect it's mice gnawing on the bed legs. Should we remind Grandma Zhou to buy some rat poison?"
Yu Li stumbled and almost lost her footing on the steps.
Damn it, how did the noise from last night get carried upstairs?
Perhaps because Qi Xiaoyun's guest room was directly above the room where Yu Li and the others were staying, Qi Xiaoyun heard the bed shaking last night, but Tan Mo, who was staying in another room, did not hear it.
"Good morning, Ms. Yu."
Tan Mo first saw Yu Li and greeted her warmly.
Qi Xiaoyun looked at Yu Li with a somewhat awkward expression, hesitating for a while, unsure whether he should greet her or not.
After all, the person opposite him was his uncle's mistress, and if he acted too enthusiastically, wouldn't that be aiding and abetting his uncle's infidelity?
That's wrong!
As a model youth of the new era, Qi Xiaoyun said he must adhere to his principles.
Fortunately, Yu Li didn't seem to want them to sit together. She just smiled and then disappeared in a flash.
When she went to the banquet with Qi Chenyan, Yu Li poked him with her swollen arm in an annoyed manner.
"It's all your fault! Your nephew heard all the noise we made last night, and we're so embarrassed!"
Qi Chenyan wanted to laugh, but knowing his wife was shy, he held back and made sure his tone was respectful.
“I’ll definitely be more careful next time, but don’t worry, Xiaoyun isn’t very bright. He’ll just think it’s a mouse gnawing on the bed leg and won’t think of anything else.”
Do you want a next time?
Anyway, back in my hometown, there's no chance of a next time!
It would be one thing if Qi Xiaoyun overheard it, since that guy is a bit dim-witted and wouldn't think of that kind of thing.
But Grandma has been through this before, and she knew exactly what was going on as soon as she heard it. Doesn't she have any shame to stay by Grandma's side?
Yu Li gave a haughty snort, indicating that she did not want to forgive Qi Chenyan for the time being, and took the lead.
Qi Chenyan also showed a very good attitude of admitting his mistake, working hard without complaint, following behind his little wife. She walked in front, and he followed behind, stepping on her shadow.
In rural areas, banquets are usually held outdoors under a tent, with tables, chairs, and benches set up.
When Yu Li and Qi Chenyan arrived, there weren't many people there yet, and the kitchen was just an open-air platform with a chef working on the spot.
The chicken, duck, fish and meat are slaughtered on the spot, and their freshness is visible to the naked eye.
Before Yu Li could get close, Qi Chenyan took her hand and led her to the other side.
"The smell in the kitchen is too strong, it'll make you feel nauseous. Let's find a place to sit further away."
Yu Li was also afraid that things would turn out the same as yesterday. After all, she was there to eat at the banquet today. If she vomited on the spot, the host would think that the food was so bad that it made her vomit, which would have a bad impression.
She obediently nodded and found a slightly secluded spot with Qi Chenyan.
The moment they sat down, the two attracted the attention of the people around them.
The main reason is that the young couple is so good-looking that they stand out from the crowd wherever they go, becoming the focus of everyone's attention.
"Xiao Li is back? Girls really do change a lot as they grow up. Xiao Li has become more and more beautiful. She has never been ugly since she was a child."
"That's right, he's a good student and very filial. He's one of the few kids in our village to get into a top university, and now he works at a TV station. That's a respectable job. He's really made your grandma proud!"
"Those big cities are really different. Even the partners they find are as handsome as celebrities. What's the young man's name?"
"Young man, you look familiar. Have you seen him somewhere before?"
An elderly man jokingly chimed in, "You're so old, yet you're still a womanizer like you were when you were young, saying every handsome young man you see looks familiar."
"Then don't get too close when you see Xiaoli's boyfriend. I'm more reserved than you when you see a handsome Xiao Huo and can't walk away."
Before Yu Li could even speak, the two old women started bickering.
Before they could mediate, a middle-aged man holding a kitchen knife came over and pulled Qi Chenyan away.
"Young man, you must be Xiaoli's husband? I heard you just got married. You look very strong. Come on, come help us slaughter the pig."
