"Shen Li, you really have no conscience. Do you think I would refuse if you asked?"

Shen Li raised his eyes and looked at him: "But I did cause you a lot of trouble, you don't owe me anything..."

"Okay, we've known each other for so long, don't you think it's a little too late for you to say this now?"

Shen Li was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said: "That's right, then will you help with this matter or not?" Up to now, they really couldn't draw a clear line between them. In this case, it would be better not to say hypocritical nonsense.

Qin Yu appreciated her directness: "I can help, but there are conditions."

Shen Li raised his eyebrows and motioned for him to speak.

Qin Yu swallowed his saliva and said, "I...want you to move to the government office."

"Why? I'm staying well in the inn."

"How can an inn be as safe as a government office? What if Xie Liangrui has any grudge against you? Then you will be in danger."

"Not really. We don't have any hatred."

"Not now. If he really cancels the engagement, how do you know he won't feel resentful? And the Xie family, since they agreed to the marriage, and you ruined it, what if they want to retaliate against you?"

Shen Li felt that Xie Liangrui should not have any resentment, after all, he did not like Han Sisi, but it was hard to say for sure about the Xie family. However, she still felt that it was too inconvenient to move to the government office: "But it is not convenient for me to live there. I have brought several people with me and need to do business. It is very inconvenient to go in and out of the government office all the time."

"You can move in by yourself. I have servants to serve you."

Although Shen Li didn't want to go, Qin Yu's offer wasn't too unreasonable, and it seemed unreasonable to keep refusing: "How about this, wait a few days, I'll buy the shop, and then move over, okay?"

Qin Yu naturally didn't mind these few days, as long as he could move. Firstly, it was for her safety, and secondly, if some irrelevant people came to see her, they had to go through him first: "We will go to treat the leg tomorrow."

"No, I still need to think about how to talk to Xie Liangrui. Are you sure you can cure it?"

"Based on what I know, it should be possible, but we have to see the details."

"Then wait for my news. After I have discussed it, we will go together."

"Yeah." Qin Yu stared at Shen Li for a while: "You..." He didn't ask in the end if he missed me. He had been rejected too many times, and now he didn't dare to say such words.

"what happened?"

"It's okay, I'll leave first."

"Wait... wait a minute." Shen Li was a little hesitant, but when he thought of the bracelet on Shen Yanyan's wrist, he felt uncomfortable. At this time, Qin Yu was still waiting for her, so he went to the cabinet without hesitation, took out the bag he brought, and then took out a wooden box from it and handed it to him.

Qin Yu opened the box in confusion, and when he saw the bracelet inside, his expression suddenly changed: "What does it mean?"

"I think you should give it to someone more suitable."

"This is what my mother gave you. It's not mine. You should return it to her."

"I paid it back. Aunt Qin asked me to pay it back to you."

Qin Yu laughed sarcastically: "Since my mother doesn't want it, then you can throw it away."

"Isn't this the Qin family's heirloom?"

"So what? In my eyes, only things that are liked by others are valuable. If no one likes them, it's better to throw them away. Shen Li, do you really think I won't be angry?"

"Angry? Have you forgotten how this bracelet came into my hands? Aunt Qin wanted to give it to me, not you. Since it's not a sincere gift from you, there's no point in keeping it. If I give it back to you, you can have a chance to give it to someone you really want to give it to. After all, this bracelet is much better than that one."

"What are you talking about? Apart from you, who else do I really want to send this to?"

Shen Li looked at him with a half-smile: "Really? Why don't you think about it again?"

Qin Yu stared at her eyes, which were narrowed so that only half of them were visible, like an angry fox. Suddenly he smiled, "Are you talking about Shen Yanyan?"

And he said he didn't have anyone he wanted to send it to, man, huh...

Qin Yu looked at her and when she heard him mention Shen Yanyan, her eyes no longer squinted, but became bright again as she looked at him. Just as he thought, she minded the bracelet Shen Yanyan was wearing.

"That was when we first came to Xia County. We passed by a jewelry stand and she said she loved it so much that she wouldn't take it off. I had no choice but to buy it. It wasn't something I really wanted to give her."

"You can give it to whoever you like, it's none of my business, but you didn't really mean it when you gave it to me, so you should take it back."

Qin Yu smiled gently: "Then I will give it to you again, and this time I am absolutely sincere." As he said that, he handed the box to Shen Li.

Shen Li looked at his smile, which was really alluring. A man who looked like this was really a disaster: "I don't want it, you should keep it for yourself."

"Then I threw it away."

Shen Li didn't move. After all, it was his heirloom, and he didn't believe he would really throw it away.

Seeing that she was indifferent, Qin Yu simply threw the box away.

With a 'bang', the box fell to the ground beside him. Shen Li was shocked: "Are you crazy? That's your heirloom, and you really threw it away." After saying that, he hurriedly walked to the side, picked up the box from the ground, opened it and took a look. He found that the bracelet was not broken, and he breathed a sigh of relief.

"I won't take back anything I give away. If you don't want it, there's no need for me to keep it."

Shen Li knew his temper, but she didn't expect him to treat the heirloom like this. Fortunately, it was not broken, otherwise she didn't know how to tell Qin Yueying. Holding the box, she didn't give it to him again: "Nothing, you can go."

Qin Yu curled his lips and said, "Yeah." Then he left the room.

He felt that Shen Li cared so much about Shen Yanyan's bracelet, he must be jealous. What did this mean? It meant that she cared about him.

Shen Li watched him leave briskly, feeling somewhat puzzled. He then looked at the box in his hand and sighed. In the end, he failed to return it, but he no longer minded the sincerity with which he had given it to him.

Afterwards, Shen Li wrote a letter to Xie Liangrui, the content of which was roughly saying that he knew a doctor who might be able to cure his leg, and if he agreed, he should ask someone to tell her.

She didn't want to go to Xie's house to find him again. If she was turned away again, it would be a disaster for her.

After asking Luo Qi to deliver the letter, no one replied after waiting for two days. Shen Li was really helpless with such a person. Did he think she was lying to him?

On the third day, someone finally showed up, and it was Xie Liangrui himself.

"Is this your way of getting my attention?"

Shen Li knew that Xie Liangrui couldn't say anything good: "How confident are you in yourself? Do all women have to like you?"
