I didn't sleep for very long, but I slept very well and felt completely refreshed.
Sun Lifang, who was already used to her husband's presence, was awakened by a noise.
"Hmm—" Sun Lifang stretched her neck, rested her head on the cool pillow, and watched the man's back as he quietly got up.
Without turning around, I could tell she was awake just by hearing her voice.
But Zhou Yunshi still asked, "You're awake?"
He just received a call and has to continue cleaning up the mess.
Zhou Yunshi asked a business partner to hire a lawyer he knew to bail out Chen Guiyi.
Now there's a result, and he's going over there.
After briefly informing his wife, Zhou Yunshi prepared to leave.
But the hem of her dress was pulled.
"Don't go." Sun Lifang said casually, pinching the corner of her hand without much effort. "Why don't you stay and have dinner with me?"
I estimated the time; it took most of the day to get from the hotel to the police station.
Zhou Yunshi probably hasn't had lunch yet.
But it's already five o'clock.
Sun Lifang looked at the clock on the wall, hoping that her husband would at least fill his stomach before getting back to work.
Furthermore, Chen Guiyi is not worthy.
He doesn't deserve to let Zhou Yunshi work for him while he's starving.
Of course, she wouldn't say this out loud; if she were to, it would be a long, drawn-out explanation.
Otherwise, Zhou Yunshi would think she was not objective and was judging with subjective emotions.
Sun Lifang didn't want to reveal her emotions.
Playing the role of a perfectly emotionally stable wife will give her a sense of control and security.
Besides, Sun Lifang was really hungry now.
She wanted to find someone to have dinner with.
"Eating together won't cost much—"
Before the words were finished, a voice said, "Okay."
The next second, Zhou Yunshi had already dialed the internal line to order food delivery.
The entire process went smoothly, though there were a few personal phone calls that rang incessantly.
Li Zhi's voice was hoarse from worry, and he sounded very concerned about the "poor" Chen Guiyi, speaking entirely on his behalf.
After talking for a while, they were still asking, "Boss, when are you coming?"
Zhou Yunshi didn't say much, only saying, "Later."
The food has arrived, and the caregiver is taking it out while reminding, "The stew pot is a bit hot, so be careful when you eat it and don't touch the outside with your hands."
The caregiver's voice was quite loud, so Sun Lifang deliberately raised her voice a little in response, "Okay, thank you for bringing over dinner."
She was certain that Li Zhi on the other end of the phone had heard it.
The boss isn't a god; he needs to eat lunch too.
Why should we clean up the mess left by "scumbags"?
Are you the boss, or is he the boss?
Stop with the nonsense. From Li Zhi's perspective, Chen Guiyi was terribly harmed by his ex-wife, and his good brother was extremely pitiful.
Sun Lifang was furious upon hearing this, and she wanted to provoke Li Zhi.
As expected, Li Zhi's voice sounded somewhat broken.
His voice came through the microphone, "Boss, are you eating?"
The question is phrased in a straightforward manner, without any superfluous words.
What kind of meal should you eat from noon to night?
Li Zhi guessed what was going on when the boss said he was going home for lunch.
What kind of meals must I go back to eat?
My brother is currently in dire straits, while the proprietress over there is still telling the boss to "eat slowly."
This is absolutely infuriating!
Of course, Li Zhi dared not speak out against his anger.
The phone wasn't off because Sun Lifang had snatched it away, "forcing" Zhou Yunshi to eat properly.
"No rush, take your time—" Sun Lifang drawled, slowly trying to calm Li Zhi down.
"He's a grown man, completely unharmed. Won't he lose a bit of skin in a while?"
As she spoke slowly and deliberately, she picked up a piece of fish and gave it to Zhou Yunshi.
When Li Zhi heard that the person who answered the phone was the proprietress, he became a little anxious, "Then when will we finish eating?"
"Shall I drive to pick you up?"
He wished he could fly over and take the boss away.
Sun Lifang, of course, wouldn't do as he wished. Her voice was neither warm nor cold as she said, "I don't know~ You should eat your food early too."
She blocked the sound hole with her fingertip, so that only she could hear the sound coming out, and Zhou Yunshi had no idea what Li Zhi had said.
All I heard was his wife showing concern for her subordinate, urging him to eat early.
Little did they know, Li Zhi on the other end was red-faced and furious, jumping up and down in a panic.
Sun Lifang said a couple more ambiguous words of concern before hanging up the phone.
It feels so good to criticize Li Zhi!
She felt like a favored concubine of an ancient emperor, a femme fatale who used her influence to bully ministers.
It's so much fun! It's so much fun!
Hearing Li Zhiqi's angry shouts, Sun Lifang felt a sense of relief.
Men just love to stick together.
What business is it of his if it's someone else's business?
It's like the emperor isn't worried, but the eunuch is; he's practically begging for it.
It's really not worth it for that kind of scumbag.
Zhou Yunshi had no idea what was wrong with his wife.
Why are you so happy about making a phone call?
The corners of his mouth turned up, and there was a hint of a smile in his eyes.
Even though she was incredibly happy, she had to keep her lips tightly pressed together and her cheeks twitching, pretending nothing was wrong.
Like a child who has played a prank and is secretly pleased with himself, his mood is much better than at noon.
"Don't get distracted while eating."
Zhou Yunshi tapped the table, returning to him exactly what the person had just said to him.
Sun Lifang immediately snapped out of her daze, smilingly hiding her phone behind her back so he wouldn't get it.
My mood improved, and my appetite also improved a lot.
Who says revenge has to be serious?
She needed to cheer herself up by casually teasing the other person little by little.
After finishing their meal, Zhou Yunshi stood up and told her, "Get ready, I'll take you back tomorrow."
