Chapter 102 Li Zhinan was ignored by Cheng Qian, and he was unhappy
A black Bentley stopped in front of a distinctive small building. The door opened and a tall and handsome figure stepped out.
Ji Yichen, who was about to go downstairs, had his black eyes flashing.
He ran into Li Zhinan who was walking up the stairs with one hand in his pocket.
"Zhi Nan, why are you here?" Ji Yichen asked him with a smile.
Li Zhinan also smiled: "I bought some food and came to see Cheng Qian."
As he was speaking, Li Zhinan's assistant Chen Rui came over with an exquisitely packaged box from the trunk.
Ji Yichen looked at the box, which was from a famous chocolate brand.
"Xiao Qian said last time that she doesn't like sweets." Ji Yichen blurted out something as if something in his head had clicked.
Li Zhinan was startled, a small storm flashing across his dark eyes: "Yichen, you seem to care about Cheng Qian a lot. When did you become so familiar with each other?"
Ji Yichen looked down at the stairs and smiled: "Although we have just met not long ago, I have an inexplicable sense of familiarity with her. Maybe it is because we met when we were children."
"I remember that you seemed to have only seen her photo." Li Zhinan raised his eyebrows.
"Yes, photos can also make people remember them vividly." Ji Yichen said this and looked at Li Zhinan again: "By the way, have you seen what she looked like as a child?"
Li Zhinan was stunned. Before he could think of what to say, Ji Yichen suddenly smiled and said, "If you want to see her childhood photos, I can send them to you. She had twin ponytails and was so cute and well-behaved."
Li Zhinan's face darkened, and he forced a smile: "No need, I don't really want to see it."
Li Zhinan lost this round.
He pursed his lips, lowered his head and walked up to Ji Yichen.
Chen Rui hurriedly followed and did not forget to say hello to Ji Yichen.
Ji Yichen was still standing there, the smile on his face slowly disappearing.
He turned around, glanced at the unruly figure, and a hint of sarcasm appeared on his thin lips.
Belated affection...is it worse than a dog's?
Li Zhinan was in a good mood originally, and when he passed by the chocolate shop, he didn't forget to buy one.
Now, after being criticized by Ji Yichen, I felt very upset.
As a result, his face looked unhappy. He knew where Cheng Qian's office was, so he went straight there.
When he came over, everyone present was amazed.
Some of the little girls had shining eyes and secretly blushed.
Li Zhinan went straight into Cheng Qian's office and saw a lot of research books and materials inside, which was like a knowledge reserve.
Since Cheng Qian had not returned yet, Li Zhinan was not in a hurry. He reached out and took a book, opened it and took a look.
On it was a note made by a woman with a fountain pen. Her handwriting was beautiful, just like her. It didn't look very impressive at first glance, but upon closer inspection, it was actually very intriguing.
Cheng Qian was outside the door, talking to someone. When she saw Chen Rui standing at the door, she was startled.
"Assistant Chen, why are you here?" Cheng Qian walked over and asked.
Chen Rui immediately laughed: "Madam, the husband is here too and is waiting for you inside."
When Cheng Qian heard Li Zhinan coming, her expression paled and she pushed open the office door.
Sunlight shone in through the curtains. A slender man sat on her sofa, holding a book in his hand. When she opened the door, he didn't even look up from the book. He just said calmly, "I heard there was a theft in the lab. I hope nothing important was stolen."
Cheng Qian frowned and said calmly, "No, thank you for your concern."
Li Zhinan turned another page of the book, but his eyes were blank and he couldn't see the words clearly. He just didn't know how to face this cold wife.
"Is she going to steal your parents' notebook?" Li Zhinan closed the book and turned to look at Cheng Qian.
Cheng Qian was wearing a white coat, with her long hair tied gently behind her head. There were a few playful strands of hair on the sides of her ears, outlining her pretty oval face.
Her eyes were very clear and bright. Although she lived in this mortal world, she seemed to have never been contaminated by the vulgarity of this world.
Between the first time Li Zhinan met her and now, her temperament and eyes haven't changed much.
Of course, when she is emotional, or when she is suppressed by him and feels powerless, she is still charming and full of charm, which is completely different.
When Li Zhinan looked at her, some indescribable images unconsciously flashed through his mind.
This stimulation caused him to feel a little hot inexplicably.
"Do you have anything else to say? If not, please leave. I still have to work." Cheng Qian had nothing to talk about with him, so his presence was a bit of an eyesore.
Li Zhinan changed to a more lazy sitting position: "Cheng Qian, why didn't you tell me immediately when such an important thing happened?"
Cheng Qian's expression didn't even change as she said calmly, "Is it useful to tell you?"
Li Zhinan's face was like being mercilessly whipped. He looked unhappy: "It is because of your attitude that the distance between us is getting farther and farther. If you don't try it, how will you know if it works?"
"I know it without trying." Cheng Qian sneered.
Ice is not formed in a day, and Cheng Qian's state of mind is not cultivated in a day.
That is the result of accumulation over the years.
How could Li Zhinan understand that sorrow is worse than a dead heart?
"Okay, let's not talk about the past. I admit that I didn't care much about you before, but... didn't you say that for the sake of the children, you wouldn't divorce for the time being? Since we're not getting divorced, why don't we try to mend things..."
"There's no need for that." Cheng Qian's face was cold, and the deep affection in her eyes was no longer there. There was only the calmness as if she was looking at a stranger.
Li Zhinan opened his mouth to speak, but had nothing to say.
He frowned, his voice filled with dissatisfaction: "Do you have to be so cold?"
"Mr. Li, are you so free today? Then remember to pick up the kids early this afternoon." After saying that, Cheng Qian turned around and sat at her desk, turning on the computer to look at the data.
Li Zhinan felt a sense of being ignored. He was unwilling to accept it. He leaned his palms on her desk and said with an unhappy look on his face, "Cheng Qian, are you jealous? Cheng Yan and I are just friends. There's nothing messy about us like you think."
Cheng Qian looked up at him. He finally dared to talk about Cheng Yan in front of her.
"You don't need to tell me what your relationship with her is. I've told you that you are the god of freedom and I won't restrict your freedom to make friends." Cheng Qian's voice was cold, yet revealed a hint of indifference.
Li Zhinan's face became even uglier, but for a moment, he was unable to refute her words. He could only stand up and call Chen Rui in.
"Put your things down and let's leave." This was the first time that Li Zhinan came to see Cheng Qian with gifts. Unexpectedly, she was so cold.
"Take the things away." Cheng Qian stared at the computer screen and asked seriously.
Chen Rui had just put it down when he heard these words. He looked up at Li Zhinan. For a moment, he didn't know whether to take it or not.
"Cheng Qian, does it have to be like this? I'm not your enemy, I'm your husband. Do you have to make our relationship so awkward?" Li Zhinan was immediately furious.
"Take it away." Cheng Qian's voice was still firm.
I don't even want his cheap concern, let alone gifts.
This made Chen Rui very miserable, as his bent back could never be straightened.
Li Zhinan's expression turned cold, and he said directly: "Grab your things and let's go."
Chen Rui immediately wanted to say something nice, so he said, "Madam, this is something my husband picked out especially for you. Would you like to open it and take a look?"
"No need. Please, Assistant Chen, take it away." Cheng Qian was polite, courteous, and ruthless.
Chen Rui sighed. Why did his wife suddenly become so cold towards Mr. Li?
I remember that a year ago, they were still interacting like a couple.
Will love really disappear?
Chen Rui took the gift and hurriedly caught up with Li Zhinan who had already walked away.
Cheng Qian put all her energy back into work.
But Li Zhinan's action just now was like a stone falling into the calm lake of his heart, causing a small wave.
As soon as Li Zhinan got into the car, he received a call from Cheng.
Li Zhinan rushed to Cheng's to hold a meeting. After the meeting, Cheng Yan had to go somewhere and begged Li Zhinan to give her a ride.
Li Zhinan did not refuse.
In the car, Cheng Yan suddenly saw the exquisitely packaged box next to her. She immediately picked it up and took a look. She couldn't help but exclaimed in surprise: "Isn't this the 'not greasy' chocolate? I used to buy it often."
"Do you like it?" Li Zhinan was worried about not being able to find a trash can to throw it away, but he didn't expect that Cheng Yan would like to eat it.
"Of course, I believe all women will like it. It tastes sweet but not greasy and is very delicious." Cheng Yan said happily.
Li Zhinan looked at the receding scenery outside the window and sneered, "That may not be the case."
When Cheng Yan heard this, she immediately became more thoughtful. Her beautiful eyes flickered: "Zhi Nan, are you going to give this to someone else?"
Li Zhinan shook his head: "No, if you like it, I'll give it to you."
"Thank you, Zhinan. I really like to eat it, but if this chocolate has someone else..."
"No." Li Zhinan interrupted her: "You can take it."
"Okay!" Cheng Yan immediately held it in her arms, then carefully opened the package and took out one of them: "Zhi Nan, do you want to try it too? It's really delicious."
Li Zhinan shook his head: "I don't eat sweets, you eat it."
Cheng Yan immediately opened a white chocolate, took a bite gracefully, and sighed softly: "Hmm, this is the taste, sweet and delicious."
Li Zhinan turned his head to look at her and asked, "Is it really delicious?"
Cheng Yan nodded: "Yes, you men may not like sweets, but women can't live without sweets."
Li Zhinan lowered his eyes, not knowing what he was thinking.
A hint of jealousy shrewdly flashed in Cheng Yan's eyes. Although she pretended to love sweets, in fact, she had already guessed in her heart that this was something Li Zhinan wanted to give to Cheng Qian.
But for some reason, Cheng Qian didn't want it, so Li Zhinan thought of giving it to her.
Cheng Yan secretly clenched her fists. This feeling was really uncomfortable.
I feel like a trash can that collects other people's unwanted stuff.
