All in all, Minls is an immature brand, and there are still risks in cooperation, and this risk cannot be predicted in time.

"Do we have to cooperate with others this time?" Li Yue asked helplessly.

Cheng Lan also had to admit: "Mr. Li, currently our proportion in second- and third-tier cities in China is much smaller than Filr..."

Although it is true that it is difficult to choose, Li Yue cannot turn a blind eye to the current hollow market.

"Anyway, this cooperation will last for the next two months. Let's observe and learn from it."

"Okay, Mr. Li."

Li Yue opened the last folder underneath, which contained the financial statements of other branches of the Li Group.

Li's family is like a big tree. Only by managing the veins of its branches well can it ensure its long-lasting prosperity.

So at some point, Li Yue always has to go back to hold a shareholders' meeting.

The above are the things to be done at the next shareholders’ meeting.

Li Yue looked at it carefully, and from time to time he found areas listed above that were not clear enough, so he marked them and sent them to Cheng Lan for improvement.

An hour has passed since we discussed this.

"Sir, Miss doesn't like to be disturbed while working."

Shen Guiyu came out of the study and saw the food on the table, but there was no sign of the woman, so he wanted to remind her. As a result, Aunt Sun stopped her as soon as she took one step.

"Um...Okay." He sat back down in his seat.

Aunt Sun watched him sit on the seat next to the main seat, and she was secretly happy that she finally had someone she liked.

Without Li Yue, only Liang Tong could open up the conversation.

"Brother Shen, did my cousin keep you waiting for a very long time today?"

"...No." Shen Guiyu looked at the rich dishes on the table, lowered his head and said, "It's because I got off work late."

Liang Tong shook the ponytail on his head and said cleverly: "Why do you adults like to go to work so much? Brother Shen and my cousin are so similar!"

Because of Li Yue's instructions, there were a few more dishes on the table than before.

He looked at the beef roll slices on the plate. This dish was particularly delicious. The beef roll slices sprinkled with cumin and unknown spices were more fragrant and flavorful.

He picked up the dinner plate that everyone had, picked up a few pieces with serving chopsticks, and placed them on Li Yue's place.

At first, Aunt Sun thought he thought the beef roll was placed too far away and was inconvenient to hold, so she moved the beef roll in front of him.

Shen Guiyu thanked him, but then turned his chopsticks to put a few slices of green vegetables on the plate.

Only then did Aunt Sun realize that Shen Guiyu was leaving food for Li Yue.

"Mr. Shen, I have left food for Mr. Li." She reminded him.

Only then did Shen Guiyu put down his chopsticks and eat his portion.

Li Yue came out not long after the meal started. Liang Tong's eyes lit up and he said to Li Yue who was still washing his hands before the meal: "Cousin, come and eat quickly. Brother Shen has brought you a lot of dishes."

Li Yue wiped her hands and walked out. Perhaps because she was lying on the bed working just now, her hair was slightly messy.

"I know." She came over and sat on the main seat. Only then did she notice that Shen Guiyu was not sitting in the guest seat as before, but sitting next to the host seat.

Maybe he didn't know the order of these seats, but he still ate with his head down.

His idea was simple, Li Yue always sat here, and he just wanted to be closer to her.

In his peripheral vision, Li Yue whispered thank you to him, and picked up the beef slices he left for her on the plate.

"It's delicious," she said.

Liang Tong licked his lips, "Is it because Aunt Sun's cooking is delicious, or is it because Brother Shen prepared it for you, cousin?"

"It's not because of you anyway." She said indifferently, and then gave her a piece of ginger shreds: "Now, eat some potato shreds."

Liang Tong likes to eat hot and sour shredded potatoes the most. She muttered: "Aunt Sun didn't make potatoes today..."

Until she put it in her mouth without thinking, and spit it out immediately: "Cousin!! This is obviously ginger!!!"

From then on, primary school student Liang Tong began a one-sided cold war, a cold war only with Li Yue.

"My cousin is the worst person I have ever seen. Brother Shen, don't you think so?"

As soon as the child sat in the back seat, he hugged the doll in the car and kneaded it.

Before Li Yue got in the car, Shen Guiyu had to smile and said patiently to Liang Tong: "...Your cousin is joking with you, don't be angry with her. Brother, give you a chocolate."

He took out the chocolates that Li Yue used to comfort him today from his bag. There were only two chocolates left, so he gave one to Liang Tong.

Liang Tong glanced at the chocolate in his hand. It was the only brand of chocolate that his cousin ate. There was only one box imported from Europe every week.

Usually her cousin wouldn't give it to her, and her parents didn't know where to buy it in Europe.

She took it almost immediately: "Thank you, Brother Shen."

After Shen Guiyu helped Li Yue coax the child, he looked at Li Yue outside the car, taking a few gift bags brought by Uncle Wu's car and opening the door.

"Liang Tong, take it."

Liang Tong ate the chocolate in his mouth and said vaguely: "Cousin, are you finally here to coax me?"

Li Yue didn't know where she got the misunderstanding, he just asked her to help hold the bags first.

"This isn't for you."

Liang Tong's face fell instantly, and he reluctantly took the three yellow gift bags.

"Is this my cousin's chocolate?" Liang Tong picked up one of the bags and carefully looked at the conjoined English printed on it by the light in the car.

Although she couldn't understand it, she knew that it contained the chocolate that Shen Guiyu gave her just now. And there are not many in this bag, only ten pieces, but the price is ten times more expensive than ordinary chocolate.

"Cousin, who are these gifts for? Are they for Shen -" Her eyes drifted back and forth to the two people sitting in the front seat, and the next second Li Yue reached out and blocked her mouth.

"I'll give you a box next time, don't be sour." Li Yue said as he started the car and let go.

Shen Guiyu looked at her but said nothing.

It wasn't until Li Yue stuffed Liang Tong back home that Li Yue asked about Liang Tong's study status as usual.

According to Li Yue's knowledge, Liang Tong's parents should have made up their minds to divorce.

Many times, deception in the name of love does not bring much positive impact.

It is said that it is difficult for an upright official to handle household affairs. Li Yue and other family members saw this in their eyes, but they could not say anything to her aunt.

Li Yue also talked with Liang Tong in private and confirmed that the child really did not want to be a stumbling block for his parents, so he went to give his aunt a message.

My aunt replied quickly, but it was obvious that she was not in a good mood.

A few hours later, my aunt sent a message thanking her.

Since it's not suitable, it would be best for both of us if we break it off.

After hearing her plain summary, Shen Guiyu felt a little sorry for Liang Tong in his heart, but he also knew that Liang Tong would rather see his parents return to their respective lives and continue to love each other than continue to pretend to be affectionate in front of her. she.

Maybe this seemingly regretful ending can also be another kind of happiness.

While Shen Guiyu was thinking, he unconsciously clenched his bag.

"Do you think she can get into that Yuying Middle School?"

The answer is almost obvious. It's not that Liang Tong really doesn't know that knowledge, it's just that it's not solid.

Shen Guiyu nodded, and Li Yue realized that this man could talk a lot, but he always needed to turn on his chat switch correctly before he could speak happily.

The atmosphere was immersed for a while, and there were many vehicles on the road. Not only because today is a Friday holiday, but also because tomorrow is Children's Day, one intersection after another was blocked.

"I still have the recording of Jane Wei talking to me. If he does anything bad to you again, you can ask me for the recording and call the police at any time."

Shen Guiyu nodded and said, "Well, thank you very much today."

The speed of the car slowed down a lot. She turned her head and saw that he was still in low spirits and lowered his head, not knowing what he was thinking.

If he had always looked at the world with a kind heart, it would indeed be difficult to recover from his experience this afternoon.

It was hard for her to even imagine how Shen Guiyu held up his emotions to teach Liang Tong during the two hours of tutoring.

The car drove to C University, turned around, and stopped there. Even the security guard on duty was already familiar with this black business car.

"For you." She picked up the two boxes of chocolates on the seat behind and handed them to him: "If you are unhappy, just eat one chocolate."

Shen Guiyu looked at the three boxes of chocolates, and the tip of his nose suddenly turned red.

He was just annoyed that he had eaten too much of the chocolates she gave him in a moment of gluttony this afternoon. In the end, he only had two chocolates left, and now he only has one left.

If I hadn't eaten so much this afternoon, maybe there would be a few more left by now.

I was stroking my cloth bag repeatedly just now, carefully holding the last chocolate through the two layers of cloth.

As a result, Li Yue took out three more boxes like a magic trick for him, and they were all his only.

That's why whether it's the sweetness his taste buds can taste or the warmth he feels in his heart, it's her who is giving it to him.

In the past so many years, all the charity that the world was unwilling to give to him came with her.

Li Yue felt a little uneasy when she saw that he had not accepted the boxes of chocolates.

She had grown up eating this brand, so was it just not to his liking?

"Hmm...is it because it's too sweet and you don't like it?"

Shen Guiyu raised his soft eyes with a hint of autumn and stared straight into her eyes.

No, he was staring at her lips.

"No." She saw him grit his teeth and turned his head, as if the sparks in his eyes just now were just her imagination.

He took the three boxes of chocolates into his hands, making a slightly unsteady sound in his throat.

"As you said, you should fight back when you are bullied..."

Li Yue thought for a moment and confirmed: "Yes, I did."

"You also said that if I am unhappy, I feel wronged, want to cry, and want to be comforted, it is normal."

Li Yue couldn't help but feel relieved to see that he had truly listened to her words as good advice this time.

"Yes, indeed, that's what I said."

His eyelashes flickered slightly in the lowered darkness, and for the first time he felt a rebellious heart.

"Then...then I...still feel aggrieved now——"

From outside the car, horns and voices on the road could be heard from time to time.

You see, no matter how well-insulated a vehicle is, it cannot guarantee that it will not be disturbed by noise in today's busy traffic outside.

Although he has long been disappointed with the world and closed himself off, he cannot stop at it after being treated kindly.

Happiness could never feed him.

He is very greedy.

So, for the first time, he gathered all his courage and said, "Can you hug me again, okay?"

In an instant, the air in the car was stagnant.

No one can see the situation inside the car from the outside, and no one can know what Shen Guiyu's desolate heart has become in pieces over the years.

"..." He saw her unbuckle her seat belt, saw her slightly parted red lips and said, "Are you sure?"

Shen Guiyu sniffed, but said firmly: "Yeah."

"But if you don't unbuckle...I'm not sure if you want a kiss or just a hug."

Every time she said those words that made him blush with embarrassment, she said them with a smile.

This time is indeed no exception.

Li Yue adhered to the principle of attacking first to gain advantage and then suffering disaster, and unbuckled his seat belt.

But he became nervous and at a loss, as if the seat belt he had just unfastened was the clothes on his body, which made him feel ashamed and embarrassed.

"Come here yourself."

Li Yue did not take the initiative to hug him.

Whoever asked for it just now should be the one who took the initiative. This is something he always has to learn even though he is clumsy.

Shen Guiyu took a deep breath, straightened his waist and leaned over in confusion.

Smelling the familiar scent of cedar on her body and leaning against her soft hair, he rubbed his head against her neck like a dog that had finally found a home.

Subconscious actions are the easiest to reveal a person's state of mind.

The body and mind that had just relaxed suddenly became tense again.

He felt a hand with slender fingers covering the back of his waist. He couldn't help but tighten his nerves and even breathed a lot faster.

His fingers clenched tightly on the shoulders holding her, and his nails dug into the flesh at this time.

Through the opposite car window, Li Yue reflected a flushed face buried on her shoulder. Her lips, which were originally bloodless, turned red due to the deep bite.

His waist couldn't help but soften, and his slightly exhausted body forced him to lean on her.

It was just a normal hug, I just accidentally lowered my hand, just to comfort him.

Isn't this the hug he wants? He is blushing and closing his eyes tightly, thinking to himself, this is what he wants.

It took a while, until she said softly: "I'm going back."

At night, after he returned to the dormitory and lay down, he put his hand on the spot where Li Yue had held him just now.

It's nothing special and not sensitive.

He took his hand back and accidentally touched a slightly raised place.

He hugged his quilt and kept thinking about what had just happened. Finally, he was defeated by the repeated process of heating up and cooling down on his face and fell asleep.

He didn't realize that what his hand accidentally touched just now was the old scar left by his father.
