Chapter 017



When Li Yu'an went downstairs, Yan Cen was still standing by the car.

The two of them looked at each other from a distance, and for a moment, the sourness that Li Yu'an had just suppressed came back.

He paused, hesitating where he was and not daring to move forward.

The shock brought by those two sentences just now was too great, and he was afraid that it was an illusion that would be shattered at the touch.

Instead, Yan Cen approached without hesitation, with a concerned look on his face, "Why did you come downstairs? Are you cold?"

Li Yu'an was wrapped in a thick long down jacket, from head to toe, and only his cheeks exposed outside the hat showed a hint of warmth.

There was still a hint of moisture in his eyes, and he asked in a muffled voice, "Why... did you come here suddenly?"

It was rare for Yan Cen to be without his glasses, and there was a clear smile on his face, "Wasn't I clear enough on the phone just now?"

Li Yu'an tightened his grip on the scarf and didn't answer.

Yan Cen closed the distance between the two people, and repeated emphatically face to face, "Because I thought of you when I was abroad, and I thought that with your personality, you would definitely spend

the New Year alone, so I couldn't resist the impulse and rushed back." "Happy New Year, Li Yuan."

Yan Cen repeated it again, deliberately bending a little, "And the most important sentence, do you need me to repeat it in person?"

"..."

Li Yuan was suddenly filled with shame, "No, no need."

Yan Cen's voice rang at the same time, without any casualness or frivolity, full of solemnity and tenderness, "Li Yuan, I like you, the kind of love that goes beyond friendship."

"I'm not kidding, and you are not dreaming."

"I know such a sudden leap may make you feel uncomfortable. This is the first time in my life that I have done such an impulsive thing, but I just want to tell you clearly and accurately-"

"I like you."

These confessions, one after another, completely drew the line between "illusion" and "reality".

Li Yu'an's heartbeat and breathing were a mess. He reluctantly handed the scarf over and hurriedly changed the subject, "It's...too cold. Tie it first, don't catch a cold."

Yan Cen took it, as if he could still sense the remaining warmth on the scarf, "Especially for me?"

Li Yu'an raised his eyes to meet his smile, and quickly looked away, "It's late, I..."

"Yu'an, don't feel burdened."

Yan Cen tied the scarf that Li Yu'an took off, and his tone returned to his usual steady and gentle tone, "I was indeed rash and impulsive about what happened tonight. You must need time to consider this matter." "

I also know that after New Year's Day, "End of Fog" will be on the shelves, and you and everyone in the studio will be very busy."

"So I hope you will consider yourself first, and me second. No matter how long the time limit is, I am willing to wait for your answer, okay?"

"..."

Li Yu'an did not respond, but he could not help but be moved.

During this time, too many things happened in the so-called "family affection" that made him overwhelmed, but he waited for the long-awaited rising period in the "gaming career".

To be honest, it would be a lie to say that he was not tired.

He was forcing himself to work every day to fight against the remaining pain brought by his family, and he did not consider personal problems at all.

To put it another way, he had been "secretly in love" with Yan Cen for too long.

Over the years, Li Yu'an has more or less rejected some confessions and ambiguities, and has never developed into a "lover" with anyone. However, Yan Cen's confession tonight came unexpectedly, which he had never imagined.

After the initial shock and surprise, Li Yu'an had to face more realistic problems.

Perhaps because the silence lasted too long, Yan Cen felt a little uneasy in his heart, "Yu'an?"

Li Yu'an's eyelashes trembled slightly, "Yan Cen, I haven't, haven't thought about this."

Yan Cen immediately replied, "I know, but I hope you don't rush to refuse, just give each other more time, okay?"

"When you have time to figure out your answer, no matter when, I will wait for you to tell me in person."

Even if the final answer is a rejection.

Yan Cen still hopes that Li Yu'an is based on his own heart, rather than being influenced by other external factors.

Li Yu'an nodded slowly, not rejecting the request of the man in front of him.

Yan Cen breathed a sigh of relief, knowing when to stop, "It's cold downstairs at night, you should go back quickly, it's easy to catch a cold if you stay for too long."

Li Yu'an glanced at him, "What about you?"

Yan Cen gently held the scarf, "Didn't you give me a scarf? It's very warm when I wear it."

Li Yu'an looked at his coat, unconvinced, "You should go back quickly too, don't catch a cold on the first day of the new year."

"Okay."

Yan Cen cooperated gently, and urged, "You go up first, I'll leave after I see you get into the elevator."

"..."

Li Yu'an looked up at him, feeling an indescribable sense of shame.

He didn't want to waste time on the topic of "who leaves first", so he turned and entered the elevator hall in the corridor.

The elevator was originally parked on the first floor.

Li Yu'an looked at Yan Cen who was still standing outside the apartment door. His superior figure was no different from when they first met in college.

Somehow, he almost instinctively stopped the slowly closing elevator door and called out, "Yan Cen!"

Yan Cen saw his momentary impulse and a surprised smile flashed across his brows, "I'm here."

Li Yu'an collected his turbulent emotions and responded seriously, "Happy New Year."

The obscure secret love was hidden in the years unknown to outsiders, and finally turned into a mutual sentence in this early morning -

Happy New Year.

Wish you, and wish me too.

...

As soon as I entered the house, the warmth enveloped my body again.

Li Yu'an simply took off his thick down jacket, with blush still on his earlobes and neck. He walked to the window secretly and carefully stuck out half of his head -

Yan Cen was still standing upstairs, following his gaze.

"..."

Li Yu'an quickly closed the window like a child who had been caught!

Zizi.

The phone vibrated. It was a WeChat message from Yan Cen.

"Close the windows, don't be blown by the draft, go to bed early, and good night."

"..."

Was there a radar installed?

How could it be discovered?

Li Yuan let out a frustrated "tsk" and forced himself to be calm, "Well, be careful on the road."

A faint sound of a car engine was heard downstairs.

Li Yuan confirmed that Yan Cen had left, and then he breathed a sigh of relief and returned to the room.

He looked at the black screen of the computer that had entered "sleep" mode, and thought of everything he had just experienced. He couldn't bear to watch any more important review work.

Li Yuan unloaded his strength and lay on the bed. When no one was around, he simply "punched and kicked" the air for several seconds, then he blushed and muttered, "How is this possible?"

Why would Yan Cen confess suddenly? Didn't we agree to be friends?

Li Yu'an hugged his pillow, his cold eyes rarely revealed a bit of shyness, and a trace of confusion and lack of confidence, "It's obvious that every time we meet, I feel embarrassed."

How long has it been since the reunion and the real formal contact? Why did the other party like him? He is not good, his appearance, personality, and ability are far from those of others.

"..."

Li Yu'an carefully recalled every detail after meeting Yan Cen again. In the past, he did not dare to let himself think about it, but now he really wants to figure it out -

when did Yan Cen have special cross-border behavior towards him?

Has he ever?

Suddenly, Li Yu'an remembered the night when he accidentally had a fever, remembered Yan Cen's promise of "I won't leave", and remembered the hug and care between the two of them like lovers.

"Did it start from that day? It's only been a few days?"

The moment he murmured, Li Yu'an's thoughts suddenly focused on another thing.

- Pei Huan, from the day you took my competition plan, you were destined to be a despicable thief!

- When I was about to graduate, there was a strong anonymous opponent in the online investment competition organized by the school. At the end of the competition, the school arranged for the top three to meet publicly. Only then did I know that Pei Huan was among them.

- Li Yu'an, no one can replace you, so don't be jealous of anyone. From now on, be yourself and do what you really want to do.

All the previous conversations were pulled together and strung together into an answer that was not a good one.

"..."

Li Yu'an's enthusiasm in his heart was mostly extinguished, and the more he thought about it, the more he was sure.

That's it.

How can there be love without reason?

There is really nothing about him that is worthy of Yan Cen's attention now. Such "love" may be just a temporary emotional transfer, which may disappear at any time.

Li Yu'an couldn't say that he was lost or jealous. He pulled the quilt over his head, but he couldn't sleep all night.

...

Starting from New Year's Day, YWY finally launched its first original game "End of Fog", and the prospects are bright.

The studio and Dawn Games have been completely separated.

Pei Yi is a direct action. In order to avoid possible venue disputes in the future, he quickly found the new address of the studio and moved in before the Spring Festival holiday.

This year's New Year's Day and Spring Festival are very close.

As a shareholder and operator of the studio, Li Yu'an was busy until the Little New Year, and finally "made it" to the last job before the New Year.

The receptionist confirmed Li Yu'an's attendance and nodded politely, "Hello, Mr. Li, please follow me."

This afternoon is GM's year-end summary meeting. As the investee, YWY also requested to send representatives to attend. This matter naturally fell on Li Yu'an.

"Okay."

Li Yu'an followed the receptionist, but his eyes secretly glanced at Yan Cen's office, "Today is the year-end report. Is your Mr. Yan also here?"

The receptionist replied, "Of course, Mr. Li, do you have something to ask Mr. Yan?"

Li Yu'an raised his hand to cover his lips, "No, just asking."

Since the confession in the early morning of New Year's Day, Li Yu'an has fallen into a strange circle of thinking.

He always felt that the "like" Yan Cen said was not real, and it might even be transferred from someone else.

The more he thought about it, the more depressed Li Yu'an felt. His negative emotions kept getting worse, and he couldn't bring himself to meet Yan Cen.

Even when Yan Cen tried to ask him out on WeChat, he always refused on the pretext of being busy with "work."

But no matter how well he could avoid meeting Yan Cen in private life, he couldn't avoid meeting Yan Cen at work.

As Li Yu'an was thinking, his peripheral vision suddenly caught a glimpse of a figure that was nearby, and he bumped into it without even stopping.

Li Yu'an came back to his senses in an instant, but the center of gravity of his body was still shifted due to the resistance, and he was about to fall down. A

slight exclamation came from the reception desk next to him.

The next second, Yan Cen, who was "sitting by the tree and waiting for something to happen", steadied Li Yu'an's body, "What are you thinking about? Be careful."

Li Yu'an's face turned red, "..."

The receptionist hurriedly approached and showed concern, "Mr. Yan, Mr. Li, are you okay?"

Li Yu'an deliberately avoided eye contact with Yan Cen, but said in unison with him, "Nothing."

Yan Cen withdrew his supporting hand in front of outsiders, and added calmly, "You go first, I'll have a word with Mr. Li, I'll take him in later."

The receptionist tasted a hint of subtlety, but turned around and left obediently.

Li Yu'an silently took a half step back, "Mr. Yan."

Yan Cen hadn't heard Li Yu'an's polite address for a long time, and he was not used to it. "There are no outsiders here now."

Li Yu'an continued to be polite, "Someone may pass by at any time, Mr. Yan, it is better for us to keep a distance."

"..."

Yan Cen frowned slightly.

Li Yu'an made another move, "Mr. Yan, your company's year-end meeting is about to begin."

"..."

He called him Mr. Yan all the time.

The discomfort in his tone was gone, but instead, a subtle temper was revealed.

Yan Cen was unsure for once, but still sought agreement in a low voice, "Okay, I'll listen to you. We can talk about our private matters after this, okay?"

"..."

What private matters are there to talk about?

You don't necessarily really like me.

After this meeting, the depression that Li Yu'an had in his heart quickly swelled.

He suppressed his anger silently, ignored him and walked forward.

Yan Cen was "left" there without any defense. He stared at the small tuft on the back of Li Yu'an's head. He was touched by the cuteness but also confused -

why was she angry?

Was she trying to make trouble for him?

"Mr. Li."

Yan Cen quickly caught up and held Li Yu'an's hand firmly.

Li Yu'an looked at the hand being held, stunned.

Yan Cen hooked his palm vaguely, "Wait a minute."

Li Yu'an was so panicked that he shivered, but he couldn't get away, "Yan, Yan Cen, what are you doing?"

He asked in a low but urgent voice, with a hint of panic in his breath.

Yan Cen heard his name as he wished, and teased him, "Mr. Li, I'm going the wrong way, this corner."

"..."

Li Yu'an followed his instructions and saw the five big words "Staircase Conference Room" clearly written on the corner, and then he realized that he had gone the wrong way.

Li Yu'an turned his head and said stubbornly, "I know."

This time, he easily got rid of Yan Cen and walked into the conference room without looking back.

Yan Cen let out a doting chuckle and followed him in.

The annual summary meeting lasted for nearly two hours before it was declared over.

Li Yu'an packed up his project documents and stole a glance at the busy Yan Cen -

as a GM shareholder and executive director, he was surrounded by the various project leaders who were invited to attend the meeting as soon as it was over, and there was no way to get away to talk to him about any "private matters".

Yan Cen stood in the middle of the crowd with his superior height, and his calmness and confidence when he talked and laughed made people unable to take their eyes off him.

Compared with the Bo family behind Bo Yueming, which is in turmoil, openly and secretly fighting, the Yan family where Yan Cen is located has simple relationships and is also a well-known wealthy family in the imperial capital circle.

The family has confidence, and you have strength.

People like Yan Cen will have admirers wherever they go, so he should find a family of equal status to marry in the future.

"..."

Equal status?

Li Yu'an thought of his own conditions and family relationships, and a trace of disappointment flashed in his eyes.

Why do you like him? What kind of answer do you want?

The transferred goodwill may disappear in a few days, and he will be left alone to struggle with his secret love that cannot be seen in the light.

Suddenly, Yan Cen, who was talking, tilted his head slightly, and his eyes under the glasses were accurately and obscurely fixed on Li Yu'an's face through the crowd.

Li Yu'an suddenly exerted force on the hand holding the document, and fled the conference room without thinking.

There were many employees waiting in front of the elevator in the corridor.

Li Yu'an glanced at the elevator floor that was still going down, and recalled the brief glance he had just exchanged with Yan Cen. Somehow, he walked straight to the innermost safety passage.

Creak.

The rusty sound of the security door closing.

Li Yu'an quickly walked down one floor along the stairs, and then stopped.

One second, two seconds, three seconds... There was no movement from upstairs as he had imagined.

Li Yu'an was confused in his heart, and after a long silence, he smiled bitterly and laughed at himself, "What are you thinking? Do you think he wants you so much? Do you think he will catch up with you?"

The time on his mobile phone only showed half past three.

Yesterday, before the studio officially closed for vacation, Li Yu'an received a special "New Year's Eve dinner" invitation from Pei Yi.

If he went there now, it would be too early.

Li Yu'an simply didn't rush to leave. He put down the documents in his hand, confirmed that there were no no-smoking signs around the corridor, and then took out the cigarettes and lighter that had not been touched for a long time from his pocket.

Click.

The flame jumped and lit the cigarette.

Li Yu'an walked back and forth on the stairs while smoking, letting his mind go blank.

Suddenly, Li Yu'an heard the sound of the security door behind him opening very lightly, and the familiar voice came again-

"Sure enough, he is hiding here."

"..."

Li Yu'an's heart was tense, and his right foot suddenly missed the stairs before he could step up the stairs.

"Ah!"

"Be careful!"

Li Yu'an's body lost control and crashed into Yan Cen's arms again, but his right foot that missed the stairs failed to change the angle in time and twisted on the ground, and he felt a piercing pain instantly.

A half-smoked cigarette fell to the ground, and the butts were scattered all over the floor.

Li Yu'an clenched his back teeth so hard that his breathing stagnated for a moment.

He didn't care whether to escape or not for the moment, and kept the posture of falling into Yan Cen's arms, burying his face in Yan Cen's shoulder for a long time without saying anything.

Yan Cen didn't notice his strange behavior for a while, "Are you a rabbit? You want to escape when you are frightened? Either you hide in front of the toilet sink or in the stairwell."

Just now, when he finished perfunctorily dealing with his partners and chased out, Li Yu'an was no longer in the elevator hall.

He knew where the other party was as soon as he asked, so he deliberately took the elevator to the next floor to catch him.

Sure enough, when he opened the door, he met the rabbit pacing back and forth.

"..."

Li Yu'an was in so much pain that his head was dizzy. He took a deep breath and said, "It hurts."

Yan Cenyi realized something was wrong and asked, "It hurts? Where does it hurt?"

He let go of Li Yu'an's support, and his eyes swept from top to bottom, and finally found Li Yu'an's slightly suspended right foot, "Your right foot is twisted, right?"

Yan Cen's smile disappeared completely, "Sit down first, I'll show you!"

Li Yu'an really didn't care whether it was clean or not, and sat down slowly along the stairs, "I, I'm fine, just take it slowly."

Yan Cen saw that he was sweating profusely, and took his ankle.

Li Yu'an's sensitivity shrank, "What are you doing?"

Yan Cen replied bluntly, "Don't move, help you take off your shoes, and see where you are hurt?"

"No, it's dirty..."

Li Yu'an had just refused, and Yan Cen acted faster.

"What's dirty?" Yan Cen looked up at Li Yu'an and asked with an unprecedented helpless tone, "Why do you always care so much in front of me?"

Li Yu'an was speechless.

Why else?

Because I like you so much, so I care so much.

Yan Cen didn't think that Li Yu'an could answer his question. He was only thinking about his foot injury and carefully took off his socks.

At a glance, he saw the redness and swelling on the side of his foot.

Yan Cen felt distressed and worried, "No, I'll take you to the hospital for an X-ray."

Li Yu'an hesitated, "No, no, Pei Yi and the others are waiting for me to have the New Year's Eve dinner."

Yan Cen was afraid that Li Yu'an would be cold, so he carefully put his shoes back on for him, "It's not even four o'clock yet, let's see first, don't wear your shoes, or you'll squeeze the injured area."

After saying that, he picked up the cigarette butt that fell on the ground and threw it into the trash can in the corridor, then turned around and walked back to Li Yu'an, "Here are the shoes." He

was gentle but also serious.

Li Yu'an inexplicably felt like a child who had done something wrong, so he obediently took the right shoe and complained in a very low voice, "But it's not easy to walk on one foot."

Could it be that he really had to hop like a rabbit?

Yan Cen offered a choice, "Either I carry you out in my arms, or I carry you on my back. Choose."

Li Yu'an's cheeks flushed, "I'll go by myself. There's an elevator that takes me down."

Yan Cen refused, "No."

He turned around and made a more comfortable choice for Li Yu'an, "Come on up, I'll carry you."

Li Yu'an climbed onto his back awkwardly, his cheeks flushed from the heat, and he made small talk, "Do you have to go to the hospital? I'm afraid I won't be able to make it to Pei Yi's New Year's Eve dinner."

Yan Cen was concerned about Li Yu'an's injured foot, "How can you not go when it's so swollen? Do you have to have that New Year's Eve dinner?"

"That's all your fault for suddenly barging in." Li Yu'an complained in a very low voice, with some regrets -

"Pei Yi said he wanted to introduce his 'family' to me, so I bought a gift for them yesterday after work."

Yan Cen asked, "Where's the address?"

Li Yu'an told Pei Yi the address of his mother's house, and as soon as he came out of the security passage, he buried his face, fearing that he would be laughed at by the employees passing by.

Yan Cen noticed his shyness and the slight dependence that leaked out, and tilted his head to coax him, "Then I'll take you to the orthopedic hospital on Mingsheng Road, and I'll drop you off there after the examination, okay?"

This little episode suddenly happened, and Li Yu'an could not take care of the relationship problems between the two for the time being.

He unconsciously tightened his hands and tried to make a request, "The gift I bought is in the trunk of the car, can I go get it first before going to the hospital?"

Yan Cen agreed with him, "Okay, I'll listen to your arrangement."

...

When they came out of the hospital, it was already dark.

Li Yu'an looked at his bandaged right foot and sighed, thinking it was bad luck -

although the bone was not injured, the ligament was still sprained

. He finally waited for the Spring Festival holiday to rest a little, but he could only stay at home to recuperate. He felt a little depressed when he thought about it.

The car stopped in front of Li Yu'an.

Yan Cen opened the car door and got out, and walked around him, "Let's go, I'll take you to Pei Yi and the others, you can catch up."

Li Yu'an had no choice, "Okay."

Yan Cen helped him sit in the co-pilot seat, and then walked back, "Give me a navigation for the specific address."

"Oh."

Li Yu'an took out his mobile phone and opened the location sent by Pei Yi last afternoon.

The car drove slowly on the road.

Li Yu'an's eyes were fixed on the mobile phone interface, occasionally stealing a small glance at Yan Cen, his heart was in a mess.

He was not sure whether Yan Cen would ask him for the answer, and he was even more unsure whether Yan Cen would change his mind before he gave the answer.

No matter how he thought about it, Li Yu'an could not bring up this topic calmly, and could only silently hand the initiative back to Yan Cen.

Until the moment when the other party spoke and he could no longer hide.

The car stopped in front of the red light, and Yan Cen, who had already noticed the sight, spoke, "What are you thinking about?"

Li Yu'an answered irrelevantly, "After this traffic light, turn right at the intersection ahead."

How could Yan Cen not see that Li Yu'an was evasive about certain things? But he was in no hurry to force the other party, "Well, who is here today?"

"Pei Yi, Bo Yueming, and his mother, sister and cousin."

Yan Cen's eyes flashed with consideration, "Well, we're almost there."

Pei Yi's biological mother and sister had long since drawn a clear line between themselves and the Pei family, and the mother and daughter lived in an old-fashioned residential area.

Li Yu'an saw the unit stairs through the car window and worried secretly.

Yan Cen, who got off the car earlier, picked up the gift in the spare compartment, walked over and handed it to him, "You hold the things, I'll carry you up."

"They live too high, let's forget it."

Li Yu'an was afraid that Yan Cen would be too tired, and wanted to end the contact between the two as soon as possible to avoid the other party mentioning that matter, "I'll call Pei Yi to come down and help."

"With Pei Yi's physique, do you think he can carry you up? Even if he can, Yue Ming will be willing to let him do the hard work?"

"Or do you want to jump up four or five floors?"

"..."

Li Yu'an stared at his right foot that was wrapped like a rice dumpling, speechless and depressed.

Yan Cen approached the car door and bent slightly, "Yu'an, it's rare that you are willing to have dinner with Pei Yi's family. I won't force you to give any answers at this juncture."

"This floor is indeed too high. It's inconvenient for you to go up alone when you are injured and carrying gifts. Let me carry you up."

Yan Cen retreated to advance, "I will leave after you meet Pei Yi and the others and enter the house, okay?"

Li Yu'an compromised in a low voice, "You will be tired if you carry me up the stairs."

Yan Cen stretched out his hand to hold his collar for him, "Not tired, don't underestimate me, but you have to make sure it is this unit building, otherwise you will be tired after a wasted trip."

Li Yu'an was stunned for two seconds before he realized that Yan Cen was joking with him.

The corners of his mouth curled up and he said, "Pei Yi wrote the address, you can't blame me if you went to the wrong place."

Yan Cen carried him on his back, "Well, you are right anyway."

...

The two went up to the fourth floor and knocked on the door.

Pei Yi, who opened the door, was surprised to see Yu Yancen. He looked around curiously, "Liyuan, where are you?"

Yancen took a breath and continued, "Mr. Li's right foot was injured, and it was quite serious, but he insisted on coming here, so I sent him here on the way."

Pei Yi glanced down, "What's the matter?"

Li Yu'an covered up, "I just didn't stand steadily on the stairs, and twisted it a little."

As soon as the voice fell, a gentle female voice came from the room, "Xiaoyi, is Xiaoli here? Why don't you come in?"

"Mom, sister, let me introduce you--" Pei Yi leaned against the door and introduced briefly, "This is Li Yu'an."

"Hello, auntie, hello, nice to meet you."

It was Li Yu'an's first time visiting a friend, and he had no experience to speak of, so he had to hand over the things in his hand, "This is my little gift."

After work yesterday, he rushed to buy a set of Tremella fuciformis for beauty and skin care, as well as a set of imported watercolor pigments.

Pei Yi's sister liked this cousin in name at first sight, and took it with a smile, "Thank you, Xiao Li, for your trouble. Today, our house is full of gifts from you."

As she said that, she looked at Yan Cen, who looked equally handsome and elegant, "Xiao Yi, who is the other one?"

Pei Yi looked at his friend meaningfully, and said, "People brought by the opera, the opera is better explained by the opera."

"..."

How could Li Yu'an not hear his friend's teasing? He subconsciously turned his eyes to Yan Cen beside him.

Yan Cen received his gaze that seemed to be asking for help but was actually a sign of dependence, and he was in a good mood. "Hello, Auntie, hello, Miss Pei, my name is Yan Cen."

As he spoke, Yan Cen calmly looked around the people in the room -

in addition to Shu Wan and Pei Yuan, the mother and daughter he met for the first time, there were Pei Yi and Bo Yueming, who were lovers.

There was also a tall figure standing in the back, Qin Yishun.

The other party was Pei Yi and Li Yu'an's cousin by blood, and the look he gave him at this moment contained an indescribable scrutiny.

Yan Cen knew what was going on, and with a flick of his eyes, he established a relationship with everyone in the room.

"Yue Ming and I have known each other for many years. I have also met President Qin and Pei Yi on other occasions before. President Li injured his foot today and has difficulty moving, so I gave him a ride."

"Mr. Yan carried Xiao Li up, right?"

Pei Yuanmin noticed some clues, "No wonder he was sweating in the middle of winter."

When Yan Cen heard this, his breathing suddenly became more obvious, "Well, I'm a little tired."

Shu Wan knew that the corridor of her house was not easy to walk on, so she immediately invited Yan Cen, "Since you kids know each other, if Mr. Yan is not in a hurry to leave, why not come in and have a cup of tea and sit down?"

"..."

Li Yu'an was afraid that Yan Cen would feel disturbed when he heard this sudden friendly invitation.

He was thinking about whether to refuse on his behalf, but Yan Cen opened his mouth and said, "Thank you, Auntie. I'm so shameless to bother you."

The speed of his response was so fast that it seemed that he had already planned to mix in this New Year's Eve dinner "called family".


Recommendation
