One week.

There was no room for negotiation.

Li Jinnan told her to rest for a week before going to work at the company, so that was what she had to do.

He got quarreled up early in the morning, washed his face, changed his clothes, and put on his makeup.

After packing up, she received the address from Li Jinnan.

Since she wasn't familiar with the route, even if she followed the route, she was still in the wrong place. She had to take many detours to arrive safely.

The delay on the road was too long, and by the time she arrived at the company, it was already a bit late.

When the front desk saw her, a smile surfaced on his face, "You must be Miss Li?"

"Yes!"

"Boss Li has been waiting for you for a long time. You can take the first elevator to the left and go directly to the floor where Boss Li's office is."

"Okay, thanks." Li Shinian was wearing the business attire Li Jinnan had prepared for her. He was even wearing the 7 cm high heels, causing her to feel pain in her feet when she walked.

In the elevator, she leaned against the wall, twisting her ankle slightly.

When the elevator door opened, she looked up and saw Li Quan waiting outside.

"Li Quan?"

"You're here!"

"Why are you here?" This wasn't their Li family's company, why would he come here so early in the morning?

Li Quan pulled her out from the elevator, "I know it's your first day at work, so you definitely won't have time to eat breakfast.

She saw the thermal container and take-out boxes in Li Quan's hands, and said softly, "Thank you."

Li Quan passed the things he was holding onto to her, "Look, I won't follow you in, take them back and eat."

He reached out and pressed the elevator button.

Watching as Li Quan went into the elevator, Li Shinian finally spoke: "Li Quan, are you free tonight?"

"Yes, of course!"

"If you're free, I'd like to ask for your help."

"OK, send me a message an hour early. I'll pick you up from work." Li Quan said with a smile.

She nodded.

She waited until the elevator doors had closed before she turned and left.

Li Jinnan had yet to assign her an office space, so she could only temporarily leave the things at the secretary's place, and then head to the office empty-handed.

Just as he pushed the door open, Li Jinnan asked: "You've seen Li Quan?"

"Mm …"

"He is quite thoughtful. He came here early in the morning to wait for you." Li Jinnan's tone was calm, and it was hard to tell what she was thinking.

"Where is my office area?" Li Shinian ignored his words, and directly asked about his own office.

Hearing that, Li Jinnan raised his hand and pointed.

Following the direction he pointed to, Li Shinian saw a desk that was placed on the side. The corners of his eyes twitched, and he said: "You don't want me to work here, right?"

"That's right."

Li Shinian's face was filled with unhappiness, "Li Jinnan, are you messing with me?"

"You're new here, so you're not familiar with the company, and I don't trust you to stay by yourself. In order to avoid any trouble, the best thing to do now is to stay with me."

Li Shinian frowned, "Is there any difference between doing this and when you were at home?"

"There's no difference. You should also know that your resistance is of no use to me. I advise you to save your leisure and work here honestly." Li Jinnan paused, "You can tell Father, but unfortunately, it will take too long and Dad won't be able to handle it."

Her face was still tense.

Li Jinnan said in a gentle tone, "Xiao Nian, big brother is truly doing this for your own good. You don't know how anxious Dad and I were when you were in trouble, so you should listen to big brother's orders obediently. Big brother will never harm you."

Yes, he would not harm her.

But Li Jinnan's control would make it hard for her to breathe, no matter what she said or did, they would all be under his watch, so she had no privacy to speak of.

She felt that she was just a chess piece in Li Jinnan's hands, a puppet that he could play with however he liked.

She wanted to escape from those days when she had no sense of self, so that she could return home alone.

Who knew that Li Jinnan would also return …

"Li Jinnan, I want to have a good talk with you."

"Alright." He sat casually in the leather office chair as if he really wanted to have a nice chat with her.

Unfortunately, she knew that Li Jinnan wasn't that easy to talk to.

She sighed. "I can work here on the condition that you don't interfere in my private life. I know you send people to keep an eye on me, so I hope you can remove those people."

"This won't do, once we retreat, if you are in danger, I will be in a passive position."

"I won't be in any danger!"

"The world is unpredictable. Xiao Nian, what big brother has done is for your safety."

"Whether it's for my safety or your desire to control me, you should clearly know this yourself, Li Jinnan, don't go too far!"

Her words made contact with Li Jinnan's reverse scale, and her expression instantly became gloomy, "Li Shinian! I'm your brother! Can I kill you? If something had not happened to you then, I wouldn't have become like this. Think about it, if something had happened to you then, how would Dad have to bear it? Dad is so old, he can't bear to be provoked! "

She was speechless at the thought of her father.

She could make a ruckus, but she couldn't ignore her old father. Moreover, his health wasn't that good, and he was still in the recovery period. If he was really provoked, then something big might really happen to him.

Seeing that Li Shinian's attitude had softened, he also lowered his voice, "Xiao Nian, Daddy likes you so much, so I can't bear to have you torment me like this. As your older brother, I'm so strict with you, it's really for your own good.

Since she could not find any words to oppose Li Jinnan, she had to compromise.

Seeing that she had loosened up, Li Jinnan's ashen face relaxed, "Alright, Little Jin will bring you around to familiarize with the operations of the company. You should follow her."

"Oh." Li Shinian's reaction was extremely cold.

When she turned around, Li Jinnan asked again, "Wait, did you take your medicine this morning?"

"Not yet." She came out in such a hurry this morning that she didn't even have time for breakfast.

"Eat some medicine before you go, so that you won't feel uncomfortable later on."

Under Li Jinnan's urging, she took out two medicines from her bag, and only used them after Li Jinnan's secretary had sent warm water in.

After taking each pill, she asked, "Can I go now?"

"Sit for two minutes. If you don't have any reaction, then leave."

Li Shinian could only sit there obediently.

Ever since she woke up, she hadn't stopped taking medicine because the doctor said that her injuries weren't completely healed. Furthermore, there was a clot in her brain, and it was in a very special position, so she couldn't do surgery to remove it.

Yesterday, she had only changed it once, and this was the first time she had taken this medicine.

After sitting for a while, her head felt dizzy. She raised a hand to rub her temple. "My head hurts …"
