Li Yang licked his lips: "Isn't this a bit bad?"
As he spoke, he signaled Ji Huaizhi to look at Bai Li with his eyes.
Ji Huaizhi's expression did not change: "Thank you for your hard work."
Li Yang lowered his head resignedly: "Okay, I'll go talk to Sister Qian later."
Maybe the two of them had a conflict.
Her heart was beating up and down, and she was scared to death.
Seeing Li Yang's agreement, Ji Huaizhi said to Bai Li, "Sister Qian is our neighbor and landlord. Her family are all very nice people. There's no need to be restrained."
Ji Huaizhi originally asked Chen Gang to book a hotel for Bai Li, but Bai Li refused, saying that she was afraid to live alone outside.
Ji Huaizhi couldn't force her, so he could only bring her back.
Bai Li knew that if she refused again, she would seem ungrateful, so she nodded and said, "Okay."
Ji Huaizhi is always like this, using the coldest tone and saying the most unquestionable words, but this is also one of the reasons why I am fascinated by him.
She comforted herself that neighbors were neighbors and they were always closer to him.

When Li Yang told Sister Qian about this, Sister Qian readily agreed immediately and brought Bai Li over in a short while.
Before Bai Li left, she looked at Ji Huaizhi several times with resentment in her eyes. Even Li Yang almost couldn't help but pull Ji Huaizhi's thigh and ask him to give her a wink in return.
But Ji Huaizhi seemed to have only Li Yang in his eyes. He moved the things he brought back into the house and gave a lot to Sister Qian. The rest he asked, "Li Yang, where do you want to put this?" "Li Yang, this can be eaten during the Chinese New Year."
Ji Huaizhi's behavior made Li Yang even more certain that he and Bai Li must have had a quarrel.
Otherwise, why would he leave Bai Li, a jasmine flower, and care about her, a dogtail grass?
However, even after Bai Li and Sister Qian went next door, Ji Huaizhi was still packing his things seriously, which seemed a little unusual.
Li Yang sat down beside him and asked him, "Um, you and Miss Bai Li..."
Ji Huaizhi glanced at Li Yang, who seemed to be hesitant to speak, and said, "The daughter of an old friend of Grandpa."
"But..." Li Yang tried to dig deeper, "I heard that you were with her before..."
Ji Huaizhi put down what he was holding, moved closer to her, and raised his eyelids: "What happened between her and me?"
Li Yang naturally couldn't betray Monkey, so she could only make up stories based on what she had heard in her past life: "I heard that you had a close female friend before, and I think her last name was Bai?"
Hearing this, Ji Huaizhi curled the corners of his lips: "I also seem to have heard that you just made a close friend."
Li Yang: “…”
She immediately thought of the rumors circulating in the village about her and Gao Xinchen, and quickly explained, "That's not true. Don't listen to what others say."
"Oh." Ji Huaizhi raised his eyebrows and looked at her, "So there really is such a person."
Li Yang: “…”
So, was she scammed?
Li Yang brushed his hair helplessly, thinking that he should explain things clearly to Ji Huaizhi: "This man is from a family in Hong Kong that runs a jewelry business. I first met him at the Shenzhen Jade Market last time.
Later, he happened to come to Guangzhou, and we gradually became familiar with each other. I now have some business dealings with him.”
After saying that, she lowered her head and waited for Ji Huaizhi's decision.
Even now, if a woman gives up her stable job and doesn't go out to earn money, she will still attract strange looks from everyone. Her marriage to Ji Huaizhi was the focus of the hunting village, so you can imagine what kind of rumors it has spread outside.
Unexpectedly, she did not receive Ji Huaizhi's rebuke.
Suddenly, she felt a warm touch on her left cheek, very lightly and cautiously. She heard him ask, "So, the injury on your face is related to this incident?"
Li Yang raised her head suddenly and met his deep eyes. She felt heartache and self-blame, but no resentment.
Some people say that people with such peach blossom eyes seem to be affectionate to everyone, but in fact they are the most heartless. But because of such eyes, her heart couldn't help but skip a beat.
She turned her head away in panic, trying to avoid such a palpitating atmosphere.
The next second, he gently pinched her chin and turned her around, tilting her head slightly so that she was face to face with him, their eyes meeting.
His slender fingers gently stroked her cheek, as if caressing a precious work of art. He opened his thin lips slightly and asked her, "Does it hurt?"
Li Yang shook his head: "It doesn't hurt anymore."
It’s not that it doesn’t hurt;
With such a wronged and helpless feeling, I hope that when he is by my side, he will tell me that the pain is gone.
Ji Huaizhi's eyes flashed with self-blame. Looking at her stubborn little face, he could only say, "I'm sorry."
He promised her that he would come back early.
But because of Bai Li, the return trip was postponed again and again.
Li Yang smiled and said, "It's okay. You have your own things to do."
She smiled so gently and considerately, like a wife who didn't care about anything.
But she shouldn't be like this.
She should act like she used to and tell him in a coquettish way that she was in pain.
Ji Huaizhi's heart felt like there was a void, and nothing was complete.
He took her hands and said, "I'm sorry, I will never leave you alone at home again."
Li Yang frowned: "Tie me up with your belt?"
No, she is busy making money.
Hearing the little girl's unhappy tone, Ji Huaizhi asked her: "Don't you like it?"
Li Yang shook his head decisively: "I don't like it. I still want to be with Gao Xinchen after the New Year... Yeah!"
Before she could finish her words, Ji Huaiyi pulled her over and held her in his arms: "Don't talk about other men."
Li Yang was stunned by this sudden change.
What's going on? Why did Ji Huaizhi hug her? She wasn't sad or upset!
She tried hard to stick her head out of his arms and wanted to ask for clarification, but she heard a gasp from the door. Li Yang was so scared that she quickly pushed him away.
When they turned around, they saw Bai Li who had returned at some point. She was standing in the middle of the yard, looking at them with a look of shock or sadness on her face.
Li Yang felt quite embarrassed, as if he had been caught in bed with someone else: "That, that's not what you saw..."
"Is there something wrong?" Ji Huaizhi interrupted her and held her back, preventing her from leaving.
Bai Li's gaze fell on their clasped hands, an unknown emotion flashing in her eyes. The corners of her lips curled up as she said, "I wanted to ask you if you have any medicine for my wounds. I can't seem to find mine."
Bai Li had an injury on her hand. After a check-up at the hospital, it was found to be nothing serious, so they prescribed some medicine and discharged her. However, it has only been a few days and the injury has not healed yet.
Ji Huaizhi didn't say much about her words, and nodded: "I happen to have some here, I'll give it to you."
Seeing Ji Huaizhi enter the room, Li Yang stood there, feeling guilty when facing Bai Li's scrutiny.
Bai Li only heard: "Miss Li and Huaizhi seem to have a good relationship?"
