Seeing the slight change in Jiang Ying's expression, Shen Ye Ling consoled him in a low voice, "Mom, Second Brother's condition has improved quite a bit. It's mostly thanks to Miss Qiao that I often bring him around."

"In any case, he's got too much on his mind for other women."

"Perhaps second brother has his own thoughts."

However, Jiang Ying refused to believe it. She recalled that the day of the blind date, when Shen Yeyan and Qiao Xi made contact, it was not a big deal. However, contact with her could cause illness, causing her heart to be restless.

Jiang Ying's thoughts were in a mess. He rubbed his forehead and frowned. Shen Ye Ling helped her into the room, "Mom, lie down if you don't feel well."

"Mm, let me calm down for a moment."

Just when Shen Ye Ling laid her down, Lu Yu came in from outside and took care of her.

His pitch-black eyes swept across Lu Yu who was about the same age as him, and he spoke a few more words before leaving.

Jiang Ying's mind was in a mess. Seeing Lu Yu in front of him, he sent him off with a few words and then left him alone in his room.

Shen Ye Ling was standing outside the room and hadn't walked far. When Lu Yu came out, he walked towards him from the side and the smile on his face widened.

Lu Yu nervously followed behind him as the two of them walked out of the old residence one after the other.

Shen Ye Ling turned his head to look at Lu Li's nervous face and comforted him, "Mr Lu, there's no need to be nervous."

Lu Yu's hand behind his back loosened and his pursed lips slightly loosened as well.

"Thank you for taking care of my mother during this period of time, Mr. Lu. She's in a good mood."

The Shen family had two sons, and the one holding the power was their second son, Shen Ye An. Their eldest son, however, was excluded from the core of the family. This was a fact that he had become acquainted with Jiang Ying.

"Mister Shen need not thank me. This is something that I should do."

"My mother has been in a bad mood lately. Please enlighten her."

"Of course."

Shen Ye Ling was polite at first, but quickly changed the topic, "How long has Mister Lu been by my mother's side?"

Lu Yu's heart tightened: "There will be a few days."

"You should also know more about what my mother does."

He nodded. "Mrs. Shen trusts me most of the time."

"Yes, to be honest, you're the one with my mother the longest, you can see how fond my mother is of Mr. Lu."

Lu Yu was nervous in his heart: "If Mister Shen has something to say, feel free to say it."

Shen Ye Ling laughed and did not continue to beat around the bush, "My brother is extremely disgusted with Mister Lu's existence, if I were to offend him then I would immediately leave, but I can let Mister Lu continue to stay in his original position."

"What are the conditions?"

Shen Ye Ling didn't say anything and just handed him a name card. Lu Yu looked at the number on it and became even more worried.

"I won't make things difficult for Mr Lu. We have time to contact each other."

He left while smiling, but Lu Yu didn't leave. He stuffed the business card into his pocket and pondered for a moment in the garden. The Shen family was so deep in water, he only wanted to ask for some wealth to hug Jiang Ying's thigh.

"..."

The Imperial City was nearing the end of summer, and the weather was still hot. The dry, hot weather had not decreased in the slightest.

When Qiao Xi went downstairs in the morning, Shen Yeyan had already ran back home in the morning. He was covered in sweat as he walked past. His white t-shirt was stuck to his body, and his handsome face was flushed red.

Qiao Xi went downstairs to see Li Ran, who had arrived early. "Assistant Li, are you working overtime today?"

Li Ran nodded. He loosened his tie and replied, "Mister Shen went abroad on a business trip today."

"Mm, then I can rest."

Just as she finished speaking, Shen Yeyan's anxious voice came from upstairs, "Qiao Xi, come up right now. Immediately."

Frowning, she stuck out her tongue and had to hurry up.

Once he entered the room, Shen Yeyan impatiently grabbed the cat on his clothes. His face distorted in anger as he said, "Qiao Xi, take a look at what he has done."

Qiao Xi didn't think that Cat would piss on his clothes either. He immediately snatched the cat. "Sorry, let me help you wash."

"I can wear it after washing up?"

Shen Ye An's face darkened and was about to grab the cat in her arms when Qiao Xi suddenly took a step back. "Shen Ye An, I'll get it to apologize to you."

"No, give me the cat."

"It's illegal to hit a cat."

Qiao Xi carried the cat and was about to leave when Shen Yeyan abruptly closed the door. He forcefully pressed her against the door with lust in his eyes. It scared her and made her want to run away immediately.

She looked at the cat aggressively. She thought that she would kill the cat, but in the end, she only snatched the cat out of her arms fiercely and patted its butt a few times. He wasn't strong enough, so the kitten mewled into his embrace.

"Don't bother with him if he doesn't know what's good for him. I'll get you a pair of pants."

While saying that, Qiao Xi dove into the cloakroom. Seeing her fleeing in panic, Shen Yeyan smiled and brought the cat into the bathroom.

There were a lot of clothes in Shen Yeyan's cloakroom. She casually took out a pair of black pants and left with a person and a cat. She put the clothes on the bed and immediately took the dirty clothes.

When Shen Yeyan came out of the room, she was no longer in the room. There was only the black pants she had chosen on the bed.

Just as Qiao Xi was about to sit down, he came down with the cat and said: "Come with me to the airport."

"Me too?"

"No, take me to the airport."

"…"

This was the first time Shen Yeyan had made a request. Qiao Xi twitched his mouth unwillingly. With a slightly lonely tone, he said, "This time, I'm going for ten days. Don't run around in the Imperial City."

Qiao Xi nodded. They wouldn't be able to meet for a while.

Li Ran stood at the side and reminded him to leave. Qiao Xi followed him to the car. On the way from the villa to the airport, Shen Ye An first looked at the documents and then suddenly closed it in annoyance.

Qiao Xi leaned against the window as he looked outside. His hand, which was placed on the chair, was slightly itchy. When he turned his head, he saw that Qiao Xi had used his fingernail to scratch it.

Qiao Xi hurriedly retracted her hand, but was held tightly by him again, not giving her the chance to pull out.

She shouted in a low voice, "Shen Yeyan, you're throwing the hooligan away again."

He turned a deaf ear and used his index finger to rub the back of his hand. His eyes were pitch-black as he said, "Be good and wait for me at the villa."

As if he were an ignorant child, Qiao Xi curled his lips. "Don't worry, I don't have wings to fly anymore."
