Ding Shanshan left in a hurry. Lu Li held the soup the entire way and did not spill a drop. Ding Shanshan had only taken a few steps when soup slowly seeped out of the bag.

Lu Li watched anxiously from behind, but there was nothing she could do. She sighed. “Seriously, why isn’t this person attentive at all!”

Lu Li was not stupid. From the moment Ding Shanshan looked for her and said a few words, she knew what Ding Shanshan was thinking. However, she still agreed in the end.

After all, she knew that Xuan Sheng hated her, but she could not bear to let Xuan Sheng ruin his body like this.

Until now, Lu Li still did not understand what she liked about Xuan Sheng. However, the only thing she could be sure of was that her heart ached for Xuan Sheng and she hoped that Xuan Sheng would treat himself well.

Ding Shanshan had suggested asking her to be a chef with the excuse of eating it herself, but Lu Li knew very well that these things would eventually be sent to Xuan Sheng.

She pointed out Ding Shanshan’s lie. Just as she was about to fly into a rage out of humiliation, Lu Li agreed again.

As long as the food was eaten by Xuan Sheng in the end, it did not matter if she made it or not.

In Glory World Corporation, Xiao Wang had just arranged for a meeting to be prepared. The moment he left the meeting room, he saw Ding Shanshan walking over with her things.

Xiao Wang frowned tightly. His girlfriend’s best friend had wanted to ask about CEO Xuan many times, but he had stopped her in the end.

Xiao Wang walked forward. “Miss Ding, do you have an appointment? This is the floor where our CEO Xuan’s office is located. Unauthorized people are not allowed to enter.”

Ding Shanshan, who had always been rejected by Xiao Wang, now had some pride. She looked at Xiao Wang disdainfully. “Xiao Wang, who talks to me like this? Am I called an outsider? Does your CEO Xuan admit this?”

Xiao Wang’s eyes widened slightly. “What do you mean?”

At that moment, the meeting room door behind him opened and Xuan Sheng walked out.

Ding Shanshan walked forward in surprise. “Ah Sheng, is your meeting over?”

Xuan Sheng glanced at the surprised assistant and shifted his gaze to Ding Shanshan. He nodded. “Mm, follow me into the office.”

“Okay!” Ding Shanshan turned her head and looked at Xiao Wang smugly. Then, she picked up the bag that was already seeping water. “I made delicious food for you.”

Xiao Wang’s gaze landed on the familiar bag and his eyes widened.?

However, no one could answer his doubts. While he was stunned, Xuan Sheng had already brought Ding Shanshan into the office.

The moment he entered the office, Xuan Sheng pulled his arm out of Ding Shanshan’s palm. He took out a box of cigarettes from his pocket, lit one, and leaned back on the sofa.

Even in the office, Xuan Sheng did not wear a formal tie and suit. He unbuttoned two buttons of a white shirt, revealing his seductive collarbone.

Ding Shanshan was dazzled by his devilish and handsome appearance. She walked to his side with the box. “It’s so late. I made you some supper.”

Xuan Sheng looked down at the bag with the small lace printed on it. The corners of his lips curled up into a faint smile. “Really? Didn’t you hurt your hand?”

Ding Shanshan subconsciously retracted her right hand.

Back then, Ding Shanshan was afraid that Xuan Sheng would ask her to continue cooking for him, so she went to the hospital and wrote a fake certificate. Now that she had found someone to replace her in cooking, there was no need to continue pretending.

Ding Shanshan moved her right hand slightly. “Yes, I was injured, but my heart ached for you. I thought that you must be very hungry after such a long meeting at night, so I made you some food. Don’t worry, it doesn’t hurt.”

As Ding Shanshan spoke, she took out the things in the lunch box.

There were stir-fried cucumbers, stewed chicken, stewed prawns, and snow-white crab meat with the shell removed.

Just looking at it made one’s appetite increase.

Xuan Sheng took a puff of his cigarette. “It’s really hard on you. Your hand is injured and you made so many things.”

Ding Shanshan smiled awkwardly. “It’s nothing. It doesn’t hurt.”

In her heart, Ding Shanshan was about to scold Lu Li to death.?

“I asked the auntie at home to help me.” Ding Shanshan tried to explain.

However, Xuan Sheng did not look like he wanted to hear her speak. He stubbed out his cigarette, picked up a piece of prawn with his chopsticks, and spat it out. “It tastes bad.”

“Huh?” Ding Shanshan looked panicked.?

She continued to observe Xuan Sheng’s expression in surprise and bewilderment, only to see Xuan Sheng continuously throwing food out, with every pick of his chopstick. It was only when he drank the soup that his expression improved a little. “This soup is not bad.”

Ding Shanshan finally calmed down.

Xuan Sheng slowly drank the soup. Ding Shanshan wanted to sit beside him.

“Stand.” Xuan Sheng’s gaze was on the meat in the soup, but his words were directed at Ding Shanshan.

Ding Shanshan forced a smile. “Ah Sheng, what’s wrong?”

“Don’t you know that I have a strange temper?” Xuan Sheng smiled and glanced at Ding Shanshan.

Ding Shanshan felt her heart turn cold from his gaze. She laughed dryly. “How is that possible? That’s all nonsense from outsiders. Ah Sheng, your temper is clearly very good.”

“Oh? Really? Didn’t anyone tell you that I’m a clean freak?” Xuan Sheng began to drink the soup spoonful by spoonful.

Ding Shanshan stood in front of Xuan Sheng, not knowing what to do.

Half an hour passed, but Xuan Sheng still ignored Ding Shanshan.

Ding Shanshan was angry and anxious. She could not figure out what Xuan Sheng meant. Just as she had reached the point of anger, Xuan Sheng finally finished his soup and seemed to have noticed Ding Shanshan. “Why are you still standing? My heart will ache if you stand.”

“Then…” Ding Shanshan was a little afraid of Xuan Sheng now. She hesitated. “Didn’t you say that you’re a clean freak?”

Xuan Sheng nodded. “Yes, so you can sit on the sofa over there.”

Anger flashed across Ding Shanshan’s eyes. She felt that Xuan Sheng might be humiliating her.

However, just as this thought appeared, Xuan Sheng suddenly took out a box from the side.

“By the way, this is for you. It looks beautiful, so I bought it for you.”

As soon as he finished speaking, the box in Xuan Sheng’s hand was opened.

A colorful necklace was lying on the purple velvet cloth, making it look even more noble and elegant.

“So beautiful. Is this for me?!” The shining necklace immediately stole Ding Shanshan’s attention. She looked at the necklace in front of her excitedly. “This looks very expensive.”

“It’s the same value as you.” A smile flashed across Xuan Sheng’s eyes. He handed the box to Ding Shanshan, who hurriedly and carefully took it.

Xuan Sheng’s generosity made Ding Shanshan feel that she had suspected Xuan Sheng just now because she was too petty. She wanted to say something more to Xuan Sheng, but he had already stood up.

“Alright, it’s late. I’ll get someone to send you back.”

“Ah Sheng, it’s too late in our apartment building. The guard won’t open the door anymore.” Ding Shanshan looked at the necklace in her hand and hinted at Xuan Sheng.

Xuan Sheng did not seem to understand. “Just get the chauffeur to wake the guard up. If you really can’t, get the chauffeur to book a hotel for you. Let’s go.”

With that, Xuan Sheng took Ding Shanshan away without allowing her to retort.

When Ding Shanshan left Glory World Corporation, it was already around ten in the evening.

At this moment, the pedestrians and cars on the street had already begun to slowly decrease. Xuan Sheng drove slowly along the street.

Two stops away from Glory World Corporation, he saw Lu Li leisurely riding an electric scooter.

She looked quite happy. Her eyes were lively like a butterfly.

Although Ding Shanshan was a little arrogant, Lu Li was still quite happy that she could help her send the food to Xuan Sheng.

She hummed as she rushed home.

The early spring air had a sweet fragrance of plants and flowers. It easily reminded Lu Li of the times when she and her friends chased fireflies and looked at the stars in the night sky.

Lu Li’s thoughts were in a mess. Unknowingly, she arrived at her building.

The street lamp in front of the building had been shattered by naughty children in the past two days. Now, it looked dark and a little scary.

Lu Li rummaged through her bag, wanting to find the flashlight.

Not far away, headlights suddenly lit up, illuminating the place.

Lu Li turned around and saw a black SUV. She guessed that it was a kind owner.

Hence, Lu Li waved her hand to express her gratitude. Then, she carried her bag and walked into the building.

It was only when the lights on the eighth floor where Lu Li lived lit up that the black SUV downstairs extinguished its headlights and left the neighborhood.

In Glory World Corporation, Xuan Li looked at the document his assistant had brought in with a mocking expression.

“Doesn’t he have deep feelings for Xia Wanyuan? What’s wrong with him recently? Why does he like such a person?”

The assistant placed Xuan Sheng’s past information in front of Xuan Li. “Xuan Sheng used to be a person who lived in the flowers. Now, he’s just bringing up old matters. Which of his things can be on the table?”

Xuan Li sneered. “He’s quite good at playing. Get someone to interact with his girlfriend No matter what, she’s my sister-in-law. I should visit her.”

“Okay.”

After the assistant left, Xuan Li looked at Ding Shanshan’s photo again. He found a photo of Xia Wanyuan online for comparison.

Even though Xia Wanyuan only had a side profile, it still made Xuan Li’s heart sway.

Xuan Li turned his neck, feeling a little suspicious.

According to his understanding of Xuan Sheng, Xuan Sheng’s taste was not so bad. Suddenly, he went from loving the spring snow to liking the bottom people. No matter how he looked at it, this matter was strange.

The night deepened, pulling all the haze into the darkness.

——

China had already fallen into darkness. At this moment, in the leisurely afternoon in France,

In the tall ancient castle, well-dressed servants and maids were carrying afternoon tea and pastries to the garden.

England had always been rainy and cold. Today was a rare sunny day. The warm sunlight shone on one’s body, making them feel warm.

“Young Master An Luo, the piano teacher is already here. Are you going to the piano room?” The well-dressed butler stood respectfully at the side.

An Luo opened his eyes. His blue eyes were as gentle as the blue waves under the sunlight. “Where’s Brother?”

“Young Master is busy with his own matters.” The butler looked at An Luo lovingly. “He instructed you to drink less coffee. He’ll check when he comes back later.”

An Luo puffed up his cheeks, his golden hair shining beautifully in the sunlight. “He doesn’t even accompany me.”

“You know that Young Master is very busy.” The butler persuaded An Luo helplessly.

“I don’t care. I want to look for him,” An Luo said as he stood up and ran into the distance. The butler wanted to stop him, but he could not.

In this castle, other than An Lin, there was no one else who could control An Luo.

An Luo ran straight to An Lin’s study.

There seemed to be someone in the study, and they could vaguely hear voices.

Words like “secret” and “erase” seeped out from the marble wall from time to time.

An Luo wanted to lean closer to listen, but before his ear could touch the door, it was opened.

“An Luo, what are you doing?” An Lin’s expression was very serious. In his impression, An Luo had never seen An Lin have such a terrifying expression.

It was as if he had caused a huge disaster.

An Luo pursed his lips. “You’re not accompanying me. You promised to ride with me when the sun is shining.”

Behind An Lin, An Luo saw someone walking. He stomped his feet and wanted to look over An Lin’s shoulder to see who was inside, but An Lin stopped him. “Go back and practice the piano. Don’t make me angry.”

“Brother?” An Luo felt a little wronged.?

The corners of An Lin’s lips sank, and he looked extremely serious. An Luo glared at him angrily and turned to leave.

After An Luo left, An Lin turned around and looked at the person sitting at the desk.

“Continue. That was my younger brother just now. He’s insensible. Don’t worry, he didn’t hear anything.”

“Okay.” The person who spoke had a very young voice. The slang was not very standard, and it was obvious that he was not local.

When the setting sun gradually hid under the horizon,

The office door that had been closed for the entire afternoon was finally opened. Two men in suits walked out together.

An Lin watched the guest leave, his deep eyes inexplicably deep.

After a while, he turned around and walked towards the garden.

When the butler saw An Lin, it was as if he had seen his savior. “Young Master, quickly go and see Young Master An Luo. He’s very sad.”

“Got it.” An Lin nodded and followed the butler to the piano room.

In the piano room, the teacher had long been chased away by An Luo.

In the middle of the huge piano room was a beautiful transparent piano. On the piano was a family photo.

Between the handsome man and beautiful woman were two exquisitely carved babies.

An Luo was in a daze as he looked at the photo. The afterglow of the setting sun landed on his golden hair, inexplicably painting it with a layer of sad dark gold.

Hearing footsteps, An Luo looked up at An Lin, pursed his lips, and turned around with his back facing An Lin.

An Lin’s usually serious eyes were filled with a smile. He walked forward and stroked An Luo’s soft hair. “Are you angry?”

It was fine when An Lin did not come, but when An Lin came, An Luo felt even more wronged. He held back his tears. “You promised me that you would ride with me, yet you’re still fierce to me. You’re not good to me at all.”

An Lin took out the handkerchief on his chest and gently wiped the tears off An Luo’s face. “Silly brother, I know I skipped the appointment. I’m sorry. The next time there’s sunlight, I’ll definitely accompany you, okay?”

]”I don’t believe you, liar.” An Luo turned around and did not let An Lin wipe his tears.

An Lin patted An Luo’s shoulder and sat on a chair. “All along, I’ve wanted you to grow up without any worries, so I never wanted you to get involved in the family dispute.”

An Lin’s tone suddenly became very strange. An Luo secretly turned his head and looked at An Lin. He happened to meet An Lin’s blue eyes. An Luo hurriedly turned around.

An Lin smiled. “But, Brother, you have to grow up eventually. I want to accompany you every day, but reality doesn’t allow it. I want you to drink afternoon tea happily in the garden, so I can’t relax at all.”

An Luo looked at An Lin again. He leaned over in embarrassment. “Brother, I’m not really angry with you.”

He was just habitually throwing a tantrum because he thought that his brother would definitely coax him.

An Luo’s intelligence far exceeded that of his peers. How could he not understand what An Lin had said?

It was just that with his brother supporting him, he naturally wanted to be a child.

“I know.” An Lin reached out, and An Luo consciously rubbed his head against him.

“Brother, have you been especially busy recently?” In An Luo’s impression, An Lin had not been so busy in a long time. He was so busy that it was very difficult for An Luo to see him, which was why he was so calculative about whether An Lin could ride with him.

An Lin sighed. “A little, so you have to be obedient and practice the piano properly. You’re not allowed to be lazy.”

“Mm.” An Luo nodded, his blue eyes filled with dependence on An Lin. “Then when you’re not busy, you must accompany me well.”

“Okay.” An Lin reached out and hugged An Luo. “Why have you lost weight recently? Eat properly.”

“Mm.” An Luo nodded obediently.

After coaxing An Luo, An Lin stood up and walked out. When he reached the door, An Lin turned around.

An Luo was like an untainted angel, sitting quietly by the piano and waving at him with a smile.

The corners of An Lin’s lips curled up into a smile, but his heart was heavy.

He returned to his bedroom. The doctor was already waiting at the door. “Young Master.”

“Where’s the medicine?” An Lin frowned slightly and held his chest tightly.

“Here.” The doctor hurriedly stepped forward and handed the medicine to An Lin. “Young Master, you have to undergo the surgery as soon as possible. Otherwise…”

The doctor did not dare to continue, but everyone present knew.

“Wait until after An Luo’s birthday.” An Lin swallowed
