After LiShuang changed her clothes and went out with ShenYuci, she happened to meet MaoAnan who came back and took her with her.
In the jewelry store, ShenYuci listened to the clerk's introduction without any perfunctory manner, wanting to help her choose the best ring.
In contrast, LiShuang showed little interest and would occasionally take a sip of the tea she had.
ShenYuci saw that there was no love in her eyes and raised his hand.
"Send some more over."
This was already the fourth batch that LiShuang had seen, and she spoke with some numbness.
"Just pick any one, no need to be so particular."
After all, marrying him was originally an excuse for self-protection, and she would never wear the ring.
ShenYuci didn't blame her for not paying attention, but instead wanted to do it himself, speaking softly.
"I hope you can be the happiest bride in the world."
LiShuang thought of what LiWanwan said last night.
"ShenYuci."
"Xiao Shuang." ShenYuci suddenly called her and gently adjusted his glasses: "You used to call me brother, why don't you do that anymore?"
LiShuang: "…"
She looked at him.
Although he always has a smile that is as warm as spring breeze, he always gives people a creepy feeling.
LiShuang lowered her eyes and ignored the details: "Brother."
The plain word "brother" made ShenYuci's eyes flash with a strange look, a kind of paranoia that wanted to possess her for himself.
His voice was slightly hoarse: "Well, what did you want to tell me just now?"
LiShuang felt that the matter was in a mess and she couldn't find the best entry point, so she asked in a low voice.
"You like me, how are you going to prove it to me?"
ShenYuci reached out and took her hand.
LiShuang's eyes trembled. The coldness of his fingertips seemed to spread through her skin and spread to every part of her body.
She retracted her hand: "Your hands are too cold."
ShenYuci frowned, curled up his fingertips and retracted them: "Sorry, how do you want me to prove it?"
LiShuang bit her lip secretly.
Even at this time, I still want to kill two birds with one stone and help that bastard.
"Gu family." She looked up at him with a determined look.
"GuYiqing hurt me and almost defiled me. I feel disgusted by him."
When LiShuang said this, her body trembled slightly, and a moment of panic inadvertently flashed in her eyes, as if a deep shadow was left in her heart.
ShenYuci raised his hand.
"Come here, let me hug you."
"..." LiShuang clenched her fingertips, hesitated for a moment, and finally stood up and sat in the extra seat next to his chair.
ShenYuci did not make any unnecessary movements. He simply patted her back like a brother coaxing his sister.
"Don't be afraid. I will prove to you that you will never feel threatened by him, okay?"
BaJie was so scared that he turned into an emoticon: [My dear, his love is so suppressed, BaJie is afraid. ]
LiShuang: [I know you are afraid, but don't be afraid, I am afraid too.]
She leaned against his legs, her body was very stiff. Although she had just sat down, she still reached out to take the teacup and escaped without leaving a trace.
"Thank you, brother."
ShenYuci's embrace fell into emptiness and he slowly curled up his fingers.
BaJie hesitated for a second: [ShenJi is here, at the door. ]
LiShuang's back was so stiff that it felt like steel bars were inserted into it.
[I really thank God! How could Jiangcheng be so small! ? ]
ShenYuci also shifted his gaze to look at the figure with a clear goal.
ShenJi chuckled with ill intent and in a few steps he was behind LiShuang.
He didn't take a step closer, not even the fabric of his clothes touched her.
He just teased in her ear: "Are you still so impatient? This is a glass door, people outside can see it, it's not your bed."
LiShuang clenched her fists at her side: [It has nothing to do with you if I poop in public! ]
There was a smile in the corners of Shenji's eyes.
If you dare to pull, I will hand you the paper.
When ShenYuci stood up and moved closer, ShenJi took a step back for the first time, pretending to smile.
"I didn't touch her, but you want to take advantage of me? You are such a mean person."
ShenYuci was about to raise his hand but then he pressed it down.
"Why would my uncle come to a place like this?"
ShenJi glanced around and finally landed on LiShuang's face: "What are you doing here? I'm doing this for you."
ShenYuci took a step forward and used his body to separate him and LiShuang.
"Then I wish my uncle and Miss Li happiness."
LiShuang's heart skipped a beat: [What did I miss? They are getting to the point of getting married? This is more shocking than a sow climbing a tree.]
BaJie: [I don't know. Even your marriage seems confusing to me.]
LiShuang: "…"
Tongzi is really useless.
Listening to her gossip-filled voice without any jealousy, ShenJi's eyes darkened and he glanced at ShenYuci indifferently.
"You've got something to say that's good to you. It's only a matter of time before the eldest lady of the Li family and I meet again."
Accustomed to being addressed as Miss Li Er, LiShuang gritted her teeth.
[Scumbag, bitch, rotten dick, he should be soaked in a septic tank! ]
Finally I heard her swearing, but I didn't care how ugly it was.
The quiet and low-pitched ending voice was tinged with joy: "Miss Li, don't you want to send your blessings?"
LiShuang was named.
She raised her eyes and met his playful smile.
[He is showing off, flaunting, and mocking me on purpose! ]
BaJie was very impressed: [Your IQ is not enough to fight alongside me! ]
LiShuang smiled sweetly and took ShenYuci's arm, her voice was so sweet.
"Then my niece-in-law wishes my uncle a happy wedding, many children, a long and happy marriage, and everlasting happiness."
[It is best to be born in different beds, have many children and grandchildren, die in different graves, and the feng shui will destroy the whole family! ]
"Evil woman." ShenJi couldn't help but touch her thin lips lightly, bringing out a whisper that only he could hear.
ShenYuci's eyes fell on her arms. He particularly enjoyed her dependence on him, and his gentle voice added a bit of pampering.
"There's nothing you like here. Do you want to try another one?"
LiShuang uttered "hmm" heavily.
ShenJi let them leave from his side, his eyes gradually darkened, his casually hanging palms felt numb, as if he wanted to grab something.
"Huh?" The clerk came up with a tray of rings and asked in confusion.
ShenJi glanced casually and waved his hand.
"Bring it here so I can see it."
The clerk came forward politely.
On the black velvet tray, under the display light, the diamond ring in the middle is the most dazzling and eye-catching. It is simple and elegant, not bound by traditional aesthetics, but it does not affect its own brilliance at all.
Under the slightly blue display light, his fingertips lightly tapped on the tray. His fingers were long and slender, with distinct finger bones.
"I want this one."
The clerk smiled and nodded: "What a coincidence! This model is from the store manager's private collection. He was only allowed to take it out some time ago. It took a lot of effort to find it."
ShenJi placed the card on the edge of the tray: "Go and wrap it up."
LiShuang let go of ShenYuci's arm not long after she walked out the door.
ShenYuci: "What's wrong?"
He seemed to be able to accurately capture all her emotions.
LiShuang smiled and walked ahead: "It's okay, let's go check out the others."
Finally, they picked out a larger diamond ring in another store, and ShenYuci followed her to the door.
"I'll take you back. I have some things to deal with."
LiShuang also had something to do and shook her head to refuse.
"You go ahead, An An and I have something else to do."
MaoAnan, who had been ignored, stepped forward and nodded.
"Don't worry, I will protect Miss Li."
ShenYuci smiled and nodded, looking at her reluctantly.
"Then I'm leaving."
LiShuang nodded.
After ShenYuci got in the car, the distance between them became farther and farther through the car window.
Driver: "Is it really not necessary to send someone to keep an eye on Miss Li?"
ShenYuci thought of something, withdrew his gaze, and frowned slightly.
"No, if I watch her too closely, she will find out, and ShenJi will find out, which will alienate me from her."
"She hates me spying on her the most. Just keep an eye on ShenJi and don't lose her again."
The driver nodded: "Yes."
MaoAnan and others walked away and reported the situation in a low voice.
"There were originally separate rooms in the building, and they have been cleaned up and used for living. I have also asked them to keep an eye on the other construction sites you mentioned."
"Very efficient." LiShuang didn't expect her to be so reliable.
BaJie: [After all, he is a martial artist who has practiced martial arts for ten years to perform well for only one minute on stage. ]
LiShuang felt slightly relieved and smiled sweetly.
"Okay then. I'll find a place to rest. You take some people to tie up Boss Jia from yesterday."
BaJie: [...]
Tie, tie it over?
Is this kind of thing so easy for her to say now?
