"Are you playing dumb? Let me ask you, where are my clothes?"

Xue Lulu was so aggressive that Jiang Li avoided looking at her.

But escaping is not a solution. After a while, Jiang Li could only ask awkwardly and flatteringly: "Clothes...clothes are left at home. Can I...I can compensate you with one?"

"Compensate! Can you afford it?"

Xue Lulu waved to the waiter angrily and asked for a glass of orange juice. Then she turned around and looked at Jiang Li in a sarcastic tone and said, "Compensation? Do you know how expensive that skirt is?!"

Jiang Li nodded obediently: "I know, I know it must be very expensive, I..."

Xue Lulu insisted: "Fortunately, I bought the skirt myself. If I had borrowed it or rented it, do you know how much I would have to pay?"

"I was wrong, I was wrong. I know I was wrong. I really didn't mean it! I'll buy you an identical pair as compensation later, okay?"

Xue Lulu snorted again: "It's too late to pay now!"

"If it weren't for the fact that Li Mubai has already compensated you, I wouldn't be so easy..."

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry...ah?"

Jiang Li opened her mouth in shock: "Li Mubai has already paid for it? He has already paid for it, why are you still shouting so loudly!"

Xue Lulu raised her chin: "Why can't I shout loudly? Why? Just because Li Mubai cleans your ass, you can steal clothes openly? It's one thing for him to pay for you, but it's another thing for you to steal clothes."

"Didn't I tell you? I didn't steal! I was..."

"You obviously stole it!"

"I didn't steal it!"

"You stole it!"

"I didn't steal it!"

"You stole it!"

"I really didn't steal!"

When Wang Jingke changed his clothes and came out, he happened to see Xue Lulu and Jiang Li arguing with each other.

Xue Lulu kept making a fuss, and it was finally settled when Wang Jingke organized a party and invited everyone to have afternoon tea with Michelin.

After afternoon tea, Jiang Li couldn't eat dinner anymore.

I went back and picked up an apple to get rid of it. Just as I threw away the apple core, I heard the phone ring.

Mrs. Sun ran to answer the phone, and soon she said in surprise: "Miss Jiang Li, it's the young master's call."

Jiang Li ran over to answer the phone and asked happily, "Why did you call me?"

Li Mubai laughed: "Why can't I call you?"

Jiang Li explained: "Aren't you worried that international long-distance calls will be expensive?"

Li Mubai really laughed. He had to make a long-distance call no matter how expensive it was. Otherwise, how would he get through the day?

"Are you okay at home?"

"Okay!"

"What did you do today?"

"I went shopping with Coco, and had afternoon tea with Xue Lulu."

"Xue Lulu? When did you become so close to her?"

Jiang Li smiled bitterly and said, "Who is dating her? I accidentally met her while shopping, and she pestered me for clothes."

"clothing?"

Li Mubai reacted: "Is it the skirt I borrowed from her last time? I found someone to compensate her later."

When she was paying for the clothes, Xue Lulu also asked Li Mubai to have dinner with her, but Li Mubai refused. After a few times like this, Xue Lulu rarely showed up in front of him, and she gave up on him because she thought he was just a flash in the pan.

"It's about that skirt. I know you've already compensated for it. But she still won't give in. I can see that she's just trying to make trouble for me on purpose."

She didn't know if Xue Lulu was incompatible with her, but she would go against her every time they met.

"Speaking of skirts, I haven't said thank you yet. Li Mubai, thank you for helping me clean up the mess."

Her image in Xue Lulu's heart was not very good to begin with. If Li Mubai had not compensated her for the skirt, Jiang Li might have become notorious under Xue Lulu's iron tongue.

Li Mubai seemed a little happy, but also a little unhappy. He said in a deep voice: "Lili, do you still need to say thank you to me?"

Jiang Li felt a warm current flowing into her heart, and her whole body became relaxed and soft.

"No matter what, we still have to be polite."

After that, the two had no more words to say, but just listening to each other's soft and shallow breathing was actually enough.

After a while, Jiang Li heard Zhou Qian's urging voice from the microphone, as if urging Li Mubai to change clothes and put on makeup.

It is now past 7 o'clock in the evening in China, and around o'clock in the afternoon in France. In another hour, Li Mubai will leave the hotel to attend the event.

"Well, are you ready to go out? Then get busy. I wish you a smooth event!"

Although Li Mubai was reluctant to hang up the phone, he also didn't want to be late for the event, so he reluctantly said: "Wait for me at home. I will be back tomorrow after the event today."

"Well, I'll wait for you."

Li Mubai, you were waiting for me before, this time, let me wait for you!

The two said goodbye to each other, and Jiang Li still had a smile on her face until she hung up the phone.

Although she didn't say any sweet words, for some reason, after the phone call, Jiang Li became very sweet, and even Mrs. Sun noticed it.

"Miss Jiang, the corners of your mouth are almost stretched to the sky. Is our young master feeding you candy over the phone?"

Jiang Li pouted slightly: "Sister-in-law Sun, you are making fun of me!"

Mrs. Sun laughed and said, "How could I be making fun of you? I'm just happy for you!"

"In the blink of an eye, the young master has grown up. Now that he has grown up, it is time for him to get married and find a wife..."

Mrs. Sun walked towards the kitchen while talking. Even after she entered the house, the words "get married and find a wife" were still echoing in the living room.

marry……

I wonder if that day will ever come between her and Li Mubai?

……

A dreamless night.

Jiang Li woke up the next day and felt the house was empty.

I didn’t notice it when I went out yesterday, but when I got up today I felt that the house was unusually quiet.

It turns out that Li Mubai’s home is not so empty and quiet.

She seemed a little uncomfortable, but fortunately, she had Mrs. Sun with her.

After breakfast, Jiang Li and Sun Sao made dumplings together. Sun Sao was responsible for kneading the dough, while Jiang Li was responsible for chopping the meat and preparing the fillings. The two were very busy. They made more dumplings for lunch and put the rest in the refrigerator. As soon as Li Mubai got home, he would have dumplings to eat.

Jiang Li had just prepared the filling when the phone rang.

Mrs. Sun's hands were covered in flour, so Jiang Li went to answer the phone herself.

As soon as she shouted "Hello", Jiang Li heard Qin Sisi's crying voice: "Lili, have you seen the news? The plane that Li Xingmu and Li Mubai were on crashed!"

"Rangdang!"

Jiang Li lost her balance and fell down, smashing the vase on the table to the ground. When Mrs. Sun ran out after hearing the noise, she saw Jiang Li with a pale face, holding a microphone in her hand, her pupils wide open, as if she was out of focus, and as if she was trying to see through the thick wall.

No way! No way! Li Mubai...

Nothing will happen.
