This night was destined to be anything but peaceful.
Ah Li also truly felt that making pancakes was a physically demanding job.
Inside the steaming iron cage, Jianlu mixed flour and water together and slowly kneaded it into a soft and elastic dough.
As the rolling pin gently rolls, the dough is given a new shape.
As the oil in the pan dances and sizzles, the tortilla is slowly placed in.
Instantly, an enticing aroma filled the air, a beautiful melody woven from rich fragrance and sweetness.
Jian Lu's control over the heat of the pancakes was like a conductor's baton, guiding the rhythm of this grand event.
Finally, gently flip it over, and the pancake is ready to serve. It's fragrant on the outside and tender on the inside, an irresistible temptation in every way.
Jian Lu was very satisfied with the results of his hard work, and he said he could do it again.
Ah Li glanced at the unspeakable place and pressed her hand down. Jian Lu let out a loud snort and leaned against Ah Li, saying, "You little rascal."
"I can be even worse."
Ah Li laughed and rolled around with Jian Lu again.
In the blink of an eye, another month has passed.
Jian Lu stood at the entrance of the villa, his suitcase beside him. Ali stood in front of him and straightened his collar. "Mr. Jian, remember me when you go back this time."
Jian Lu raised her hand and grasped Ah Li's hand. A flash of light appeared on the rings on their ring fingers.
Jianlu kissed Ah Li's hand and said, "If we hadn't actually gotten our marriage certificate, I would have thought you were trying to kick me out."
"No way, Mr. Jian is exceptionally talented, a rare find. With you, I can't possibly look at anyone else."
Ah Li smiled as she watched Jian Lu kiss the ring on her hand. She added, "You go back first, I'll come find you later. We haven't dealt with that guy yet."
"Then give me a hug."
As Jian Lu spoke, she hugged Ali tightly, saying, "I really can't bear to part with you."
Ahri snuggled against him, "I'll miss you too."
After hugging for an unknown amount of time, Jian Lu reluctantly let go of Ah Li and got into the car that was already waiting on the side and left.
Ah Li pulled her shawl tighter around her shoulders. Miao Fenghuang came out from behind, pushing a suitcase. She asked, puzzled, "Boss, why aren't you going back with the gentleman?"
Ah Li curled her lips into a smile, "We always have to create some surprises, right? Besides, he'll definitely have a lot of things to deal with when he gets back, and we can do other things too."
Miao Fenghuang said, "Recently, news has come that Jian Junye accompanied a woman to see the cherry blossoms, and I heard that the woman is pregnant."
"Really? What a coincidence."
Ahri put her hand on her belly; she was pregnant too.
Miao Fenghuang glanced at Ali's belly. Her boss and husband were always doing this and that; it would be strange if she wasn't pregnant.
Is the private jet ready?
"Okay, I'm ready."
"Let's go then."
Ahri walked towards the manor not far away, where there was a huge helipad.
Jian Lu spends all his time with her and doesn't even bother to walk around the neighborhood. If he were willing to come out and explore, she would tell him that this entire villa area belongs to her.
The original owner was a hidden goddess and a wealthy woman.
Unfortunately, she was tricked into going bankrupt by the male protagonist. No matter how rich she was, she could still go bankrupt easily.
This is the way of Heaven favoring its own sons; apart from the male and female protagonists, everyone else is just an ant.
City A
A private plane slowly landed on the rooftop of a hotel.
Ali and Miao Fenghuang got off the plane together.
Miao Fenghuang was holding a lot of documents in her hand and said, "Sir, your company has recently started a collaboration. Boss, do you want to go there in person?"
“You have someone follow up on this. I’m here just to get my money back.”
Ah Li entered through a small door, went down half a flight of stairs, and someone came over to lead them to a suite.
Miao Fenghuang said, "I just received news that Jian Junye will be at Nightfall Bar tonight."
"Not bringing his girlfriend?"
Ahri took off her high heels and sat on the sofa.
Just then, a waiter brought over drinks. Ahri reached out to stop the waiter from pouring red wine and pointed to the plain water next to her.
"I heard they went without telling that person."
Miao Fenghuang quickly went upstairs and poured Ali a glass of water, and then poured one for herself as well.
"Make some arrangements, I'll go and try to bump into them tonight."
"good."
Someone pushed a food cart in and quickly placed it on the table.
For two people.
Ah Li didn't have much of an appetite, so she ate a little bit and then went to wash up and rest.
When someone lay down on the bed, Ahri subconsciously placed her hand on the other side, but it felt empty, lacking the familiar warmth and touch.
Sigh, I already miss him even though we just broke up.
Ahri took out her phone and glanced at it. He should still be on the plane.
However, Jane did not board the plane; instead, she returned to the villa.
He still wanted to take Ahri with him.
But when he went back, Ahri wasn't there.
Jian Lu grabbed a maid and asked, "Where's your boss?"
"She went out."
Where to?
"have no idea."
"Did they say when they'd be back?"
"No."
Jian Lu let go of his hand and slowly looked at the busy maids and gardeners pruning the flowers in the villa. Everyone was doing their own job.
He didn't know much about her, only that she was the owner of this big villa, a very rich and somewhat powerful person.
In her master bedroom, all their belongings were still there, and the two people's pillows were neatly arranged inside the iron cage.
