When Sister Zhang saw Shen Manting in a daze, she said, “Come on, eat something. You can keep working after you are full. In two days, you will be the most beautiful bride.”
Shen Manting smiled, picked up the spoon, and lowered her eyes.
…
On the 22nd of the 12th lunar month, Yu Lili had started her holiday. Her departure ticket was for 4 a.m. on the 23rd.
She had been painting in her room all day. She did not expect Su Qianci would actually call her.
Usually, Su Qianci’s work was very busy. She had to look after the children and work. She also had to make time for Li Sicheng, so Yu Lili didn’t talk speak with her too often.
It had been more than two weeks since they two last spoke. Thus, seeing Su Qianci’s number surprised Yu Lili.
Holding the pen and picking up the phone, Yu Lili quickly answered, “Hello?”
“Lili, are you free this evening?” Su Qianci asked. A child’s voice could be heard in the background. It sounded like they were chasing and playing. The little girl’s voice was cute and sweet.
Yu Lili said, “Yes, what happened?”
“Let’s have dinner together this evening. We haven’t got together for a long time,” Su Qianci said. “I will bring the kids. They haven’t seen you for a long time.”
“Tonight?” Yu Lili glanced at her digital screen. “OK. Well, where are we going?”
“Let’s go to our usual place,” Su Qianci said. “I don’t know anywhere else. Is that OK?”
The place they often went was Palace One under the Ou Group. Ou Ming also often went there.
Yu Lili was hesitant. She was thinking of somewhere else they could go.
Suddenly, there was a cry from the child on the other side, “Mom!”
Hearing the child’s cry, Yu Lili’s heart softened.
Su Qianci said, “Then, let’s have dinner together at 7 p.m. Bye bye.”
She hung up the phone without waiting for an answer.
Yu Lili’s mind began to race. She tried to ignore her thoughts and keep painting. Never mind. Just go there. What are the chances we will run into him?
When it was almost 5 p.m., Yu Lili began to dress up and get ready. It would take 30 minutes by taxi to get to Palace One. By the time she arrived, it would be almost 7 p.m.
Palace One integrated entertainment, catering, and leisure. Its location was beautiful, and the decorations were gorgeous.
“1, 2, 3… 10!” Li Sicheng was counting beside the wall. When he counted to 10, he straightened up and looked around. “I am starting to look for you!”
“OK!” Li Jianyue was hiding behind the curtains. Her small figure could clearly be seen.
When Li Sicheng saw her hiding spot, he couldn’t help but smile. He deliberately looked around pretending to be worried. “Where are you my baby?”
After hearing her father’s words, Li Jianyue moved back and forth. The curtains flattened down. The little girl’s sweet voice rang out, “Dad, you can’t find me! I’m hiding!”
Li Sicheng laughed out loud and said, “Really? Where are you hiding?”
“I won’t tell you! You have to find me by yourself!” Li Jianyue shouted. She sounded quite proud of herself
Li Sicheng intentionally turned around and said, “Where is my daughter? Where is she? Where could she be?”
