Lin Man was stunned for a moment, then shook her head blankly.

She stood up with the help of the wall, her ankle aching slightly. Si Lianghua stepped forward to support her. There was a dark emotion in his eyes, which disappeared in an instant before returning to his usual gentleness.

"Sprained foot?"

Lin Man staggered back a step, widening the distance between the two of them!

He smiled at Si Lianghua and said, "I'm fine. I came here specially to see you!"

"Find me?"

“Yeah.” Lin Man nodded like a little hamster, making people want to rub her head. She lowered her head and smiled embarrassedly.

"I wanted to treat you to a meal. Even though you said you didn't need to thank me for what happened before, I still remember it in my heart. If it weren't for you, I'm afraid I would have to pay a huge amount of liquidated damages by now. This favor is huge, so I still have to thank you in person."

Si Lianghua smiled and said, "Okay, let's do it tomorrow. Send me the location and I'll pick you up."

As Lin Man was speaking, her phone dinged, notifying her that Si Lianghua had accepted her friend request.

Lin Man smiled a little embarrassedly, "It's a meal to thank you, how can I trouble you to be my driver? I'll send you the location tomorrow and we can go directly there. See you tomorrow!"

Lin Man smiled and waved her hand, then turned and ran out. She felt that if she didn't leave, the eyes behind her would poke holes in her!

After Lin Man left, Si Lianghua's assistant stepped forward and looked at her from behind and asked, "Boss Si, you don't have any plans tonight, why don't you just ask someone out?"

Si Lianghua wiped her hands with a handkerchief and said, "Girls always like to dress up before going out."

The director said that Si Lianghua lived in Italy since he was a child, so Lin Man chose an Italian restaurant to cater to his tastes this time!

After booking the restaurant, she sent the location to Si Lianghua and walked towards the intersection, trying to stop a car!

roadside

A white Porsche honked its horn gently, and the convertible slowly opened, revealing Si Lianghua's gentle smile.

Lin Man ran over and said with a smile: "You are here after all."

Si Lianghua smiled and said, "It's hard to get a taxi here."

Lin Man laughed heartily. She didn't expect that Si Lianghua, such a serious person, could have such a sense of humor.

She pushed the menu in front of Si Lianghua and said, "Take a look. Is there anything you would like to eat?"

Si Lianghua glanced at the menu and ordered a few dishes without hesitation. Lin Man added some more.

This restaurant is very expensive, but fortunately the film remuneration for the past few months has already been paid, and Lin Man feels very happy to use her own earnings to treat her friends to a meal.

The candlelight flickered, and the warm spring-like light shone on Lin Man's fair and tender face. Her moist lips were crystal clear, making her look even more charming and beautiful.

Lin Man is not a sociable person. After ordering the dishes, she looked around and occasionally shook the water glass on the table, like a cute and playful kitten.

Si Lianghua looked at Lin Man like this and a smile appeared on the corner of his lips.

After all the dishes were served, Lin Man lowered her eyes and drank the soup in her bowl. After feeling the gaze of the person in front of her, she subconsciously touched her face.

"Is there something on my face?"

Si Lianghua smiled gently and said, "No, I was rude. I just felt that there was something different about you."

Lin Man held the water cup in front of her with both hands and said with a smile: "What's the difference?" They both have one nose and two eyes.

Si Lianghua picked up the red wine beside him, took a sip and put it down again. Everything was different.

After learning of his identity and wealth, other women became stiff and rigid in their every move, every frown and every smile, for fear that they might do something that would displease him. When they were with him, they tried hard to find topics to talk about for fear of making the conversation dull, and even tried to dress to suit his preferences.

A hint of sarcasm appeared at the corner of Si Lianghua's lips.

His gaze returned to Lin Man. She was also dressed differently from the others.

A black blouse with gold-thread sleeves and a pair of black suit trousers.

There is no deliberate exposure, no ingenious and exaggerated design, but it is simple, generous and decent everywhere.

Her long and slender legs and perfect body proportions attracted many men to look at her.

This made Si Lianghua feel very uncomfortable. It seemed that he would have to book the whole place next time he ate with her.

After the meal, Lin Man politely declined Si Lianghua's offer to see her off and waved goodbye to him.

Only Si Lianghua sat on the chair, without moving for a long time. It seemed that he had not had such a relaxing and comfortable dinner for a long time. When he was with her, time seemed to slow down.

Pei Yan frowned in thought as he watched the slender figure leaving the door, then looked away.

Si Lianghua was chatting with Ji Ze and Zheng Xu. When he saw Pei Yan looking over, he stood up and said, "Brother."

Pei Yan patted his shoulder and said, "There's a family dinner tomorrow, don't go back too late today."

Si Lianghua agreed with a smile and glanced at the woman next to Pei Yan. Gan Tian's face didn't look good. She lowered her head and looked very uncomfortable.

"I…I want to go home."

She turned and left without even looking at the man behind her. Zheng Xu was so scared that his breathing stopped for a moment.

But Pei Yan had no intention of blaming him. He patted Si Lianghua on the shoulder and said in a deep voice, "I'm back."

....

After Lin Man got home, she changed into a thin lace nightgown, her white beautiful legs were faintly visible. She made a cup of hot milk and was about to drink it before going to sleep.

There was a sound of an engine, and Pei Yan pushed open the door and walked in. His face was a little red, and the scent of mint tobacco was mixed with the smell of red wine.

Lin Man looked at Pei Yan in confusion, "Why did you come back?"

Couldn't he live somewhere else?

Pei Yan sat on the sofa with his arms hanging behind his back. He tugged at the tie on his chest with a look of impatience between his brows.

He spoke in a deep voice, as if he was feeling uncomfortable after drinking.

"Tomorrow is the old man's birthday."

Of course she knew that tomorrow was the old man's birthday, and every year when she went there she would be ridiculed, but what puzzled her was why Pei Yan came back!

Forget it! What was she saying to a drunkard? Lin Man took a sip of milk and looked at Pei Yan's drunken appearance. She lost interest in speaking.

He drank the milk in one gulp, put the cup down and went upstairs.

Suddenly, a big hand appeared on her waist and pulled her over!

Lin Man was startled! She subconsciously threw her hand at Pei Yan! But Pei Yan grabbed her wrist and she couldn't move!

"Pei Yan! Are you crazy? Let me go!"

Pei Yan frowned and said in a somewhat unclear manner: "Let's go together tomorrow."
