Suddenly, Si Ming smiled.
A bit sad.
Why did I feel that it was Jiang Li who made the appointment just now?
She doesn't need to make an appointment to see me. I can respond to her every request with just one phone call.
Work will definitely not be delayed, the management of Diyuan Group is not useless.
The people he hired with high salaries were no ordinary people.
He raised his hand to loosen his tie, put Jiang Li aside for the time being, and began to concentrate on his work.
The night was cool, Si Ming looked at his phone. Since the day Jiang Li left, he had not received any messages or calls from her.
I sent a message myself, but got no reply.
"You can leave work when you reach your destination."
He said something to the driver and then closed his eyes to rest.
Around eleven o'clock, after finishing his dinner with his partners, he called Jiang Li.
"Is there something wrong?" The voice on the other end still sounded energetic.
Si Ming said: "Are you still asleep?"
"I'm ready." Jiang Li had just finished taking a shower. "I saw your message. I haven't been able to reply these days because of something else."
An explanation that was so ordinary, even perfunctory, suddenly and strangely calmed Si Ming's mood, which had been anxious for three days.
This is a big improvement, it's good that you can explain it proactively.
"Are you sleepy? If not, I'll bring some food over. Have something to drink?"
After a brief silence, they agreed.
When I arrived at Jiang's house with the purchased ingredients, it was almost midnight.
Jiang Li was waiting for him in the Xueyue Pavilion.
Seeing the girl he had been thinking about day and night, Si Ming took out the ingredients, put them in a row, and pulled a chair to sit down.
"Drink it first. I prepared it. It's all pickled in advance."
Jiang Li had her long hair loose and wore a newly modified cheongsam-style dress with a shawl draped over her shoulders. She looked gentle and elegant.
"Aren't you busy?" Jiang Li opened the package of ready-to-eat meals and took out bowls and plates from the eight-treasure cabinet next to him to put them on.
"So much?"
Jiang Li took out the disposable lunch box from the ** bag, which was heavy.
It contained spicy and sour boneless chicken feet, which was exactly what she liked.
On the grill next to it, there are pig's feet and various seafood being prepared for grilling.
She likes to eat seafood and meat. She doesn't dislike vegetables, but she can't live without meat.
It’s thanks to her high level of exercise every day, otherwise she wouldn’t be able to maintain her current weight.
Next to Si Ming's legs, there was a blue and white box filled with seafood.
The seafood he buys must be fresh.
"You met my cousin a few days ago."
Si Ming looked at the gradually spreading charcoal and said, "She is my aunt's daughter."
Jiang Li hummed, "What's wrong?"
"Their family..." Si Ming pondered for a moment and continued, "You can probably imagine that their garage and house were all bought by me for them, including their work."
"Everyone in the Imperial City knows that I'm pursuing the Jiang Family's Young Master. Given your status, it's no surprise that I'll be the one to marry into the family. So it's no surprise that they're unbalanced."
Jiang Li was not surprised by this.
Indeed, Si Ming was single before, and of course he is single now.
At least towards his aunt, his attitude has definitely changed.
The status of a single nephew is different from that of a nephew who has someone he likes and may even get married and have children.
The former, at least, will not feel "unfamiliar" when receiving benefits.
But once Si Ming gets married, his property, at least in the eyes of outsiders, will be shared by the couple.
For the Qian family, this is equivalent to being taken advantage of by "outsiders".
"I warned them, but you know, money can easily deceive people."
Si Ming looked up at Jiang Li beside him and said, "If they find you, just call me and I will handle the follow-up. Don't make trouble with me."
Jiang Li: “…”
She couldn't help but curl her lips, "Can I bully them?"
"Yeah!" Si Ming nodded.
Yes, but you can't ignore him.
Is it vicious?
In fact, the choice lies with the Qian family.
As long as they don't come to Jiang Li to show their presence, Jiang Li can't humiliate them.
What's more, Jiang Li would at most give her a verbal scolding, but if he resorted to violence... she would not tolerate such a thing.
Unless the other party is really blind.
"This is nice, where did you buy it?"
A bite of the hot and sour cucumber made Jiang Li's eyes light up.
The sour, sweet and spicy taste instantly whetted her taste buds, or at least she thought it tasted amazing.
Si Ming looked up and smiled, "I made it myself. Just like what you like, tell me when you're done and I'll make it for you again."
Jiang Li nodded without any pretense.
A bite of chicken feet, a bite of cucumber, and occasionally a few sips of beer, accompanied by the cool night breeze after the autumn, suddenly I feel that life has become more interesting.
"Give."
The grilled seafood was taken out and the meat was placed in front of her.
"I also make the chicken feet. You can eat the seafood directly with the sauce."
"Okay." Jiang Li picked up a piece of oyster with chopsticks, soaked it in the hot and sour sauce, and put it in his mouth.
"The taste is not very good. It's not very tasty when it's hot. If it's chilled, it will probably be more flavorful, but it's good like this."
School has started.
Jiang Peiran had already fallen asleep at this time, so his elder brother and sister-in-law naturally wouldn't come to visit.
The two of them were under the pavilion in Jiang Li's courtyard, surrounded by the chirping of night insects and the soft colors of the floor lamps, which made the courtyard full of artistic conception.
Si Ming took note of it.
"I'll prepare some for you tomorrow." He came over with the baked ingredients, "Sort it out."
