Less than a few minutes after Jun Li lay down, Cheng Qi's eyes drifted over. Compared to Jun Li's short few minutes, Cheng Qi's eyes stayed on Jun Li for more than ten minutes. His eyes flickered, and no one knew what he was thinking.
Jun Li slept without any stress. When she woke up, Cheng Qi was already doing the finishing work. She was considerate enough not to disturb him, but instead turned her gaze to the floor-to-ceiling window next to her.
It was already dusk, the sun was setting in the west, and the afterglow of the setting sun sprinkled on the building opposite, a golden patch that was a little dazzling, but it brought more brilliance and magnificence. Such a scene, in Jun Li's eyes, also became a scenery. She covered the glass with her hands and stood on tiptoe to look down.
She had enjoyed it this way during her first mission, but she could only enjoy it for less than half an hour before she was on the road to becoming cannon fodder. This time was different from before, as she finally didn't have to be bound anymore. This feeling was really good.
Cheng Qi didn't know when he turned off the computer. He walked to Jun Li's side. Jun Li's profile was stained with light, making her look like a fairy who was ignorant of the world. Seeing her so happy, Cheng Qi couldn't help but feel some empathy.
"What do you want to eat?"
She looked back and smiled: "I like everything my uncle likes."
In the eyes of people who don't like her, this sentence is just perfunctory, but in the eyes of people who like her, this sentence naturally becomes a love talk. So, Jun Li's perfunctory words are the most perfect in Cheng Qi's eyes. Feeling that she depends on him, Cheng Qi is naturally very happy.
During the meal, Jun Li briefly mentioned her engagement with Qin Yu. She simply recounted to Cheng Qi what she had said to Qin Yu that afternoon. Cheng Qi put down his knife and fork, picked up the napkin in front of him, wiped the corner of his mouth, and then said calmly, "How do you want to deal with this?"
Jun Li hesitated for a moment. "He doesn't like me, and I don't want to force it. I've said everything I need to this afternoon, but these are just unilateral notifications from us. I think I should still talk to my parents and Uncle Qin and Aunt Qin, but I don't want things to get so awkward. After all, our two families are friends..."
Cheng Qi nodded. He thought he understood what Jun Li meant.
"When the time comes, you can call them over to get together and have a meal."
Jun Li was delighted. It seemed that Cheng Qi's IQ was still online. He understood things immediately. She was afraid that she was too tactful and Cheng Qi couldn't keep up with her thinking. Then she would have to find a roundabout way to save the country. Now she didn't have to worry too much, which was really the best thing.
"But, isn't it a bad idea to let Uncle Qin and Aunt Qin come to my house? What if they are unhappy and an argument occurs? I'm afraid it will end badly."
While Jun Li was talking, the waiter had already brought the steak. Cheng Qi silently brought Jun Li's portion to himself, then carefully cut the large steak into small pieces, each piece looking very even. After cutting, he pushed the plate in front of Jun Li and said, "If you are worried, just invite them to my house. I think there should be no accidents in my house. If you are at ease, you can leave this matter to me."
Jun Li was waiting for this sentence from him. What was Cheng Qi's status? Even if someone was dissatisfied at that time, would they dare to act rashly on his territory?
