No one seemed to want to talk, and the car was so quiet that you could hear a pin drop.

The air conditioner was on in the car, but Li Yanxiu felt very hot.

He lowered the car window halfway and let the cold wind blow in, and he felt a little better.

After arriving home, Li Yanxiu took his clothes and went straight into the bathroom.

Lin Qian leaned on the sofa to rest. She was tired after a long day and felt drowsy.

Just when she was beginning to become fuzzy, the cell phone on the bedside table rang.

She glanced at the caller ID and saw that it was Shen Zhan calling.

Whenever she saw Shen Zhan's name, she would remember the scene where Li Yanxiu punished her in the office yesterday. She still felt a little nervous when she thought about it.

She understands a man's bottom line, and she doesn't have the courage to challenge a man's bottom line again and again.

After all, it's not a rubber band that you can just pull at for no reason.

Even if it's a rubber band, there will always be a day when it breaks, and you might even break yourself.

If the man found out that there was still contact between them, it would not be good for Shen Zhan or her.

Of course she had to learn her lesson and keep her distance from Shen Zhan at all times.

She glanced in the direction of the bathroom and heard the sound of running water before she dared to pick up the phone.

Lin Qian answered the phone, "Hello, Master Shen?"

"Qianqian, you should have heard today that the company has assigned me to follow up on a project and I will be going to the construction site tomorrow. I called to let you know."

"Master Shen, you are free to go wherever you want. As a friend, you don't need to call me to report. Besides, even if it's for my own good, I hope we won't have any contact in the future."

Shen Zhan could be considered the benefactor who saved him when she was in danger. She said such cruel words because she didn't want him to be implicated by her.

Shen Zhan was silent for a few seconds.

"Qianqian, I'm going to follow up on the project this time. If it's short, it may be a year. If it's long... After I'm gone, you may have to take care of the little white dog for a while. Tomorrow, can you come and pick it up? And I also want to say goodbye to you in person."

"I'm afraid tomorrow..."

This stumped Lin Qian because she had to report to Li Group tomorrow.

"It won't take you too long. Come and pick it up. Otherwise, I won't feel comfortable leaving it to someone else. If you don't take it, I'm afraid it will become a stray dog ​​again in a year or so."

Lin Qian hesitated for a moment.

Thinking of the cute little white dog wearing a little bib, and comparing it with how it looked when I first saw it, I felt a little bit sorry.

After finally having a home, I am faced with being homeless again.

She probably couldn't take the puppy because she had no place to keep it.

However, she can take it and send it to the pet hospital for a while, and she can go over to check on it when she is free.

Thinking of this, Lin Qian gritted her teeth and agreed, "Okay, then I'll go pick it up tomorrow. What time?"

"10 o'clock in the morning, at Shen's."

In that case, she can only report to Li Group later.

Lin Qian stood by the window with her back to the bathroom, and she was thinking about how to deal with the puppy. She didn't even notice that the man had already walked out of the bathroom.

After she made the decision, she subconsciously looked back.

Unexpectedly, the moment she turned around, she saw the man walking out of the bathroom, staring at her with his deep and gloomy eyes.

Lin Qian's heart skipped a beat and she felt inexplicably weak.

She quickly hung up the phone, her tone anxious, "I have something to do here, I'm hanging up first."

Li Yanxiu frowned as he watched the woman anxiously hang up the phone. It looked like she was hiding something from him.

Lin Qian put away her phone and ran into the bathroom without giving the man a chance to speak.

She closed the bathroom door and let out a long sigh. She was almost caught by the man.

She had already made up her mind that she would never have anything to do with Shen Zhan again. After all, her relationship with Li Yanxiu had not ended yet, and she really shouldn't cause trouble.

But she couldn't just sit there and watch the little white dog. She swore in her heart that this would be the last time they would see each other.

She stayed in the bathroom for a long time before returning to the bedroom.

Li Yanxiu had already laid down. After a whole day of quarreling, the two of them finally calmed down.

There was no more intimacy before going to bed as usual, and the two of them slept on each side with their backs to each other.

When the man woke up in the morning, the seat next to him was empty.

Li Yanxiu sat on the bed alone, and his heart suddenly felt empty.

He went downstairs with a glimmer of hope, but found that there was no woman downstairs, and his mood became even heavier.

Fortunately, Aunt Li came out of the kitchen and said to him, "Miss Lin specially made porridge for you this morning and asked me to watch you drink it after you get up."

Li Yanxiu's expression softened a little, "Did she really say that?"

"Correct."

Although the latter sentence was added by Aunt Li herself...

Li Yanxiu snorted.

Guess she still has some conscience.

Only then did Li Yanxiu feel a little better.

He went to sit at the dining table, and Aunt Li served a bowl of porridge and placed it in front of him.

Green vegetable and shredded pork porridge, which she had packed for her when she was in the hospital. He had stomachache last night and didn't eat, so it was just right for him to have some porridge in the morning to warm his stomach.

He picked up the spoon, scooped a little and put it in his mouth, savoring it carefully with a serious face.

After one spoonful or two, he suddenly felt that this plain porridge had a unique flavor, and he drank two large bowls.

At this time, the sound of a door opening was heard.

He was happy for a moment, looked up, and it was indeed Zhou He.

The man's face darkened again, "How did you get in?"

Zhou He waits at the gate on time every day, and he will not enter the villa unless there are special circumstances.

Zhou He said softly, "I came in to see if you are okay. Do you want to..."

"No need, wait for me at the door, I'll be out soon." Li Yanxiu interrupted Zhou He.

Zhou He said helplessly, "You were so seriously ill yesterday, why don't you just rest at home for a day today."

Today is Lin Qian’s first day at work. After thinking about it, he insisted on going to the company.

Zhou He couldn't persuade him, so he went out and waited.

Lin Qian went out early and rushed to Shen Group. Shen Zhan had been waiting at the entrance of Shen’s building for a long time.

"Qianqian, this way." Shen Zhan opened the car door and waved at Lin Qian.

Lin Qian quickly ran up to him, picked up the puppy on the ground, and rubbed its head.

"Master Shen, don't worry. I will take good care of it. When you come back and see it next time, it will definitely be fatter than it is now."

Shen Zhan also patted the puppy's head and said with a smile, "I'm very happy that you can come to see me off. I believe you can take good care of it, but I don't know when I can finish my work and come back. I'm afraid this dog will have to stay with you for a long time."
