Jiang Ruoli almost fell into Xu Mengan's verbal trap, but fortunately he shut up in time.

"Nothing. I'm hungry. Why hasn't anyone brought me food yet?"

Shen Zhiyan poured Jiang Ruoli a cup of tea and soothed him softly, "It should be ready soon. I ordered some food from Manyun Restaurant. Are you hungry, Lili? Have some snacks first."

As soon as he finished speaking, someone rang the doorbell outside the yard.

"It must be the food delivery guy coming. I'll go get it."

Jiang Ruoli also stood up and said, "I'll go with you."

When he opened the door, the person who appeared was not the restaurant's delivery man, but a young man in a suit and tie.

The other party respectfully raised the lunch box in his hand and smiled politely: "Ms. Shen, this is the meal you ordered."

Shen Zhiyan seemed a little surprised, with a look of astonishment in her eyes, "Zhou Zhu, why are you..."

"Mr. Li asked me to do this. He said Miss Shen wants to invite her friends to her home today."

Although she had a vague guess when she met Zhou Zhu, Shen Zhiyan felt a strange feeling in her heart when she heard him explain it so bluntly.

She held out her hand, ready to take it, "Give it to me."

Zhou Zhu hurriedly pulled the bag in his hand back. Even if he had eight hundred guts, he wouldn't dare let the person in front of him do it himself.

After being with Mr. Li for so many years, Miss Shen was the first woman to enter Mr. Li Garden and stay overnight, even in the guest room.

Although I don’t know the specific relationship between the two, it is definitely different from others.

"Please lead the way, Miss Shen. If I let the two ladies do it, Mr. Li will probably scold me for not being gentleman enough."

Zhou Zhu is from Hong Kong. He mixes a few words of English into his speech from time to time, and even his Mandarin has a slight accent.

Jiang Ruoli watched the show for a long time and finally understood it.

This man is the assistant of Mr. Li, and the meal in his hand was specially delivered by Mr. Li.

As for the legendary Mr. Li, he should know her Yanyan and they have a close relationship.

"Okay, okay, I'll trouble you to help us get it in. Thank you."

She playfully imitated Zhou Zhu's way of speaking, took Shen Zhiyan's arm and turned into the yard.

"Let's go. Don't let the assistant get scolded. It's not easy for them to be assistants. Take our assistant Mo for example. I think it's hard for him to follow Pei Zigui, the big devil, every day."

Before leaving, Zhou Zhu took out the food boxes one by one and put them back on the exquisite tableware. He also picked up the garbage and threw it into the trash can.

"Miss Shen, if there is nothing else, I will leave first."

"Okay, thank you Zhou Zhu."

"Miss Shen, you are too polite. It is my job."

Jiang Ruoli looked at the neatly arranged dishes on the table and asked seriously, "Yanyan, is he really just an assistant to the president?"

If you don’t know, you might think he studied in the kitchen of some restaurant. I don’t know if Pei Zigui’s assistant Mo is also so versatile.

Shen Zhiyan nodded, "Zhou Zhu is very good, he graduated from UCLA."

Jiang Ruoli and Xu Mengan exclaimed at the same time: "You know all this?"

Shen Zhiyan bit her red lips and said, "Mr. Li said so."

That day, she jokingly asked Zhou Zhu to help pick up Zhou Zhou who was taking a bath at the pet shop.

The man adjusted his gold-rimmed glasses, looked at her with a half-smile, and said, "Ms. Shen, are you sure you want to let an outstanding graduate of UCLA do this kind of thing?"

But then the Rolls-Royce turned and drove towards the pet store.

"I wanted to ask just now, who is this Mr. Li you are talking about?"

Shen Zhiyan withdrew her thoughts, her clear and lively eyes flashed, and she whispered three words in a gentle voice:

"Li Yanzhou."

As the chopsticks dropped onto the plate, Xu Mengan widened his eyes and repeated uncertainly:

"Li Yanzhou? Li Yanzhou, the big boss of the Li family in Gangcheng?"

Shen Zhiyan nodded and handed over another pair of chopsticks.

Jiang Ruoli had also heard of the Li family in Gangcheng. After all, his grandfather had once joked that an alliance with the Li family would not be a bad idea. When Grandpa Pei found out about this, he was furious and shouted that their Pei family was no worse than the Li family.

However, Gangcheng is not as good as Jiangcheng, and Jiang Ruoli cannot understand Gangcheng dialect. If she really wants to arrange a marriage, she might as well choose the Pei family.

At least Pei Zigui's appearance is still good, but who knows what the head of the Li family looks like.

Besides, she heard that the situation within the Li family was extremely complicated and chaotic, so she didn't want to get involved in this mess.

"Yanyan, how did you get involved with Li Yanzhou?"

Shen Zhiyan paused while peeling shrimp, raised her eyes, and whispered, "Do you still remember Aunt Wanhua from Qingshan Temple?"

Both of them nodded.

Shen Zhiyan's grandmother had been practicing Buddhism in Qingshan Temple since she was very young, so Shen Zhiyan would go to Qingshan Temple since she was very young, staying there for a while from time to time. She can be said to have grown up in the temple.

There were many kind-looking grandmothers in the temple, and Aunt Wanhua was one of the ones who moved in later. Shen Zhiyan remembered that Aunt Wanhua had very beautiful long hair.

But she asked the abbot to shave her head on the first day she arrived.

She secretly hid behind the lotus column and watched. She still can't forget the look in Aunt Wanhua's eyes at that moment.

"By chance, Aunt Wanhua introduced me to work at Li Garden, so now I am the perfumer of Mr. Li's family."

Jiang Ruoli asked the most direct question, "So this Aunt Wanhua is Li Yanzhou's..."

"She is Mr. Li's mother."

Jiang Ruoli peeled a shrimp and put it in Shen Zhiyan's bowl, shaking his head and sighing:

"Tsk tsk tsk, this Li Yanzhou is an old man with a story. His biological father died unexpectedly, and his biological mother became a nun to practice Buddhism. For a man to stand firm in a place like the Li family where people are eaten without leaving any bones, he could be filmed for several seasons on TVB."

Hearing this, Shen Zhiyan lowered her head, not knowing what she was thinking.

Xu Mengan frowned in confusion: "Old man? Doesn't the information show that he is only 29 years old?"

Jiang Ruoli said confidently, "Pei Zigui is four years older than me, and he is one year older than Pei Zigui, so how can he not be considered old?"

Xu Mengan was impressed by the eldest lady's logical thinking and drank several sips of water in silence.

"Then Yanyan and I are one year older than you. According to this logic, we are also considered old women?"

Jiang Ruoli raised her little mouth, her cherry-like lips opened and closed, and her crescent-like eyes showed a smile.

"No, we will always be beauties, and beauty is never defined by age, unlike those stinky men."

Otherwise, he is a little fox who can make people happy with just a casual word.

Xu Mengan smiled foolishly as he served the young lady a bowl of shredded chicken soup. "Hey, you're right. Try this. This is the signature dish of Manyun Restaurant."

When Shen Zhiyan heard the word "signature", her eyes fell on another dish.

I seemed to hear a man's cold voice.

"People outside say that this shredded chicken soup is the signature dish, but in fact, Manyun's real signature dish is this flower egg roll. Although it looks simple, it really tests the chef's skills. Try it."

Seeing Shen Zhiyan in a daze, Jiang Ruoli touched her arm, "Yanyan, do you want to try this signature dish?"

Shen Zhiyan came back to her senses and smiled, "Okay, it's better to obey than to be respectful."

In the afternoon, Jiang Ruoli took two good sisters to the beauty salon she invested in, but unexpectedly she met an uninvited guest.
