Li Mengmeng responded, "Mhm."
When everyone heard this, they couldn't help but sigh, "What a pity, spending so much effort on this project was in vain."
Li Mengmeng frowned, feeling that the situation was a little strange. From the moment she found out about the news, it only took a few minutes for the entire company to know about it.
Someone grumbled, "We really did all this for someone else. We worked hard for a few days and nights and didn't say anything. In the end, we didn't get anything and wasted our time."
Li Mengmeng frowned for a bit, and could not help but ask: "How did this news come?"
"Sister Li, how are you so ill-informed? The rumors on the internet had gone crazy. It was posted on Weibo at 1 in the morning. All of the websites have headlines now. "
"You actually dare to take drugs? Even the top five hundred Ling technology in the entire country would not abide by the law. I never would have thought. "
"It's all about money, what can't you do?"
Suddenly hearing such shocking news, Li Mengmeng almost couldn't understand what it was. She ran back to her office quickly and opened her website.
Li Mengmeng held her head against the wall, her thoughts couldn't help but float to Ke Jianhua, the first piece of news was released in the early morning, and he had also left once before, could it be possible …
Then, she overturned this possibility. Since Ke Jianhua had denied it himself, what was the point of his doing so much?
When their colleagues saw Li Mengmeng, who had just returned, they could not help but laugh. "Ah, Sister Li, do you want to come with us?"
"No, I'm just very worried. When our company was working with the Ling family of science and technology, the media had already publicized it. If we cancel the cooperation now, won't it have a bad effect?"
"Don't worry, it's rumored on the internet that the Ling family is involved in poison, and it was reported by our company as soon as it was reported." Moya Screen explained.
Someone was surprised: "Didn't our company make a big contribution?"
After Li Mengmeng finished listening, she went back to her seat to analyze. She felt that it was a little strange, but she couldn't really tell what was strange.
After work, only then did Li Mengmeng remember that the fridge in her house was all empty. She then asked Ke Jianhua to stop in front of the supermarket and get out to purchase ingredients for herself.
Not long after she got off the car, she turned around and saw that Ke Jianhua had also followed him. Li Mengmeng immediately stopped and stared at him in alert: "Why are you following me, I'm fine by myself."
Ke Jianhua's gaze fell on Li Mengmeng's body. After a long while, she finally withdrew his gaze and smiled at Li Mengmeng. Her eyebrows were raised and her eyes were as deep as the sea.
"I want to buy something too."
"Whatever you want to buy, I'll bring it for you." Li Mengmeng rejected him without hesitation. She deeply remembered the first time she went to the supermarket with him. When she paid the bill, there were two boxes of Durex in the shopping basket. The cashier's clear smile made her very embarrassed.
The same thing happened several times in a row. The cashier greeted them all in a very familiar manner. One time, the cashier even asked, "Did you use up the two boxes so quickly?"
At that time, Li Mengmeng was so embarrassed that she wanted to die, but Ke Jianhua merely nodded her head indifferently, as if it was a very normal thing, and tacitly agreed to the cashier's idea.
Curiously, the two boxes he bought each time were not used at all. She didn't understand why he wanted to buy it since she couldn't use it. Don't you think it's a waste of money?
Hearing that Li Mengmeng had rejected his invitation, the corner of her mouth raised, her gaze sweeping across her neck which was slightly flushed, and her smile became profound, "I was afraid that you wouldn't dare to buy it."
Li Mengmeng was stunned for a good five seconds. She finally understood what Ke Jianhua meant.
As for Ke Jianhua, he followed behind leisurely with his hands in his pockets, as though he was relaxed and at ease.
Li Mengmeng walked towards the aquarium and saw the Australian Shrimp that was flapping its large pincers. She turned around and asked Ke Jianhua if he wanted to buy one, but there was no one there. She pursed her lips and realized that a group of girls were whispering in front of the shelves.
Sure enough, a group of energetic little girls surrounded one person, and it was Ke Jianhua. Some people even started to talk to him, "Hello, that drink was placed too high. Can you give it to me?"
Ke Jianhua was wandering in front of the water supply shelf. Hearing the little girl's voice, he extended his hand and gave it to her.
Just like that, seven or eight little girls circled around Ke Jianhua, looking for something to take care of. Only then did Ke Jianhua realize that something wasn't right, and his handsome face that was originally smiling slightly slowly sank, as he did not respond to the requests to take something.
Some of the girls didn't mind at all, but their hearts were still filled with interest as they continued to ask, "Handsome brother, are you single?"
Ke Jianhua revealed a cold expression and left in large strides. He replied without turning his head back: "No."
After walking a few steps, since the little girl had followed him here, Ke Jianhua turned around to look at the large group of surrounding little girls. His eyes narrowed, and just as he was about to berate them, a delicate and pretty voice rang out.
"Hubby, why are you here? I can easily find you." There was a hint of intimacy in her tone, as well as a hint of coquettishness. As soon as she finished speaking, she quickly stepped forward and pulled his arm, greeting his gaze with a smile. Her delicate and beautiful eyes were filled with playfulness.
Ke Jianhua turned his head to look, his resolute face became gentle and soft, his lips carried a faint smile, and he slowly walked to Li Mengmeng's side and affectionately pinched his cheek.
Seeing this scene, the little girl looked at their interaction with disbelief, her face full of disbelief.
Seeing the little girl's expression of disbelief, Li Mengmeng's face was so close to Ke Jianhua's chin, and he acted even more intimate, "Hubby, what are we going to do tonight?"
Ke Jianhua meaningfully looked at the little girl in front of him, hugged her waist, and gently supported her abdomen, "Watch what our baby likes to eat, and don't work too hard."
Disappointment instantly appeared in the eyes of the little girl. A group of little girls who were filled with expectation all fell down to the bottom as they muttered, "They already have babies. They're so young, yet they're still going to school?"
The originally happy mood instantly dropped when she heard the words "going to school", she angrily flung away Ke Jianhua's hand that was holding her, and quickly left.
Ke Jianhua's lips curled into a faint smile, and then, firmly held onto Li Mengmeng's hand, not allowing her to leave. If Li Mengmeng wanted to escape, he couldn't, and he inadvertently glanced at the people around his, and saw that their gazes were fixated on his hands.
When they arrived at the crab-selling area, Li Mengmeng pointed and asked: "Are you going to eat this?"
Ke Jianhua's gaze swept across the half a jin of crabs, then looked at Li Mengmeng and nodded. Li Mengmeng rubbed her head as if she was having a headache, "I've never done it before …"
Before she finished speaking, Li Mengmeng pushed Ke Jianhua's hand away, and his hand was almost caught by the crab. Then, she reminded him with slight dissatisfaction, "I'm really not careful."
Only then did Li Mengmeng come back to her senses, looking at the big sharp pincers of the giant crab, she was slightly shocked.
The crabs swam back and forth freely in the water vat. They weren't tied up with grass ropes, so if they were careless, they would be caught.
Fortunately, he was not caught, so the expression in Ke Jianhua's eyes did not change. Looking at Li Mengmeng's still worried expression, she gently said: "Relax, I can handle this."
Since he did not take the reminder to heart seriously, Li Mengmeng did not want to say anything else. If she had known earlier, he would not have pushed it away.
After buying a few crabs, then buying a few seafood, and after the master of the supermarket had washed and packed everything, Li Mengmeng was prepared to go pay the bill. After pausing for a moment, Li Mengmeng turned around and said to Ke Jianhua: "I'll go pay the bill, go outside and wait for me."
Ke Jianhua glanced at her doubtfully, then nodded and walked out with a leisurely pace.
It was rare for Ke Jianhua to be so obedient, which made Li Mengmeng a little suspicious. He lowered his head and carefully looked at the shopping cart a few times, until he did not find anything wrong, and then walked towards the cashier. The cashier was still the same young lady from before. Seeing Li Mengmeng, she politely smiled and put everything into her shopping bag. She looked at the cart, as if she felt that something was missing.
Then he asked her uncertainly, "Are you not going to buy it today?"
"What?" Li Mengmeng raised her head to ask the cashier, and realized that the cashier was pointing at the boxes on the shelves. She looked at them and only reacted after a while, her face flushed red and she stuttered: "No … "No, it's all here."
The cashier packed all the goods properly, then looked at Li Mengmeng with a sweet and happy smile. She felt very embarrassed when she saw Li Mengmeng, as if something had grown on her face. In the midst of her confusion, the cashier looked at her again, "Are you planning on having a child?"
Li Mengmeng's ears were already red, she wordlessly carried the bag and left. She swore that she would never come back to this supermarket again.
Ke Jianhua took the shopping bags that were filled to the brim and directly sat in the front passenger seat. Li Mengmeng's face was still red, she looked at Ke Jianhua, and then silently took up the driver's seat.
After about a minute or two, they arrived at the apartment not far away.
Li Mengmeng suddenly became happy. She planned to make a sumptuous meal to celebrate her unmarried life, because Ke Jianhua was going to work elsewhere.
When Ke Jianhua told her this, she was secretly happy for a while.
Li Mengmeng was busy working happily in the kitchen, with happy singing coming out from time to time. The pitch black Ke Jianhua could tell what she was happy about just by thinking about it with his toes.
He had not thought about traveling on a business trip during this period because of the special requests from his clients. As a result, ever since she found out about the news, she was all smiles. However, Ke Jianhua wasn't happy at all. His heart was full of depression and wanted to go to the kitchen to see how happy she was.
Ke Jianhua suddenly walked in, causing Li Mengmeng, who was humming, to suddenly stop, she raised his eyelids and looked at the people who were squeezed beside his, slightly unhappy, "Quickly go out, don't come in and cause trouble."
Ke Jianhua's gaze swept across the place indifferently, and then he lifted his hand to push the lid of the pot away, "It's not good to steam it too long."
Li Mengmeng glanced at him, was it true? She then stretched her head out to take a look, but her foot slipped and she almost fell down. Luckily Ke Jianhua reacted quickly and reached out to pull her into her embrace.
Li Mengmeng leaned into Ke Jianhua's embrace, and wanted to stand up. However, his hands couldn't be idle, they were full of seasonings.
Seeing Li Mengmeng staring at him angrily, Ke Jianhua laughed out loud and hugged her slim waist, "What, are you impatient?"
The deep and mellow voice was like the solo of a cello. Its beauty that could overturn all living things shone with a moving charm under the reflection of the glazed lamp at the top. Her dark pupils were filled with her reflection …
Time seemed to stop at this moment, as the two of them stared at each other in such a position. Neither of them noticed that the steam rising from the pot had filled the entire kitchen. Fortunately, Li Mengmeng retracted her gaze and coughed, "Get up, you can eat crab now."
"I …"
Before she finished speaking, Li Mengmeng had already understood. Staring at him, what she meant to say was, "I'm not blaming you for coming in." Then, she placed the crab on a plate and returned it to the table. She didn't care about Ke Jianhua and pushed him out and closed the door firmly.
