Four years later, in Jiang City.
It was another rainy season. Even though the dryer was turned on, the room was still terrifyingly wet.
In the afternoon, Li Jingzhi had finished cleaning the rooms on the last floor. When she returned to the lounge, she saw that Li Yi had fallen asleep while lying down on a chair.
Feeling a bit sour in her heart, she walked over to him quietly and picked him up before placing him on a small bed to the side.
Gao Xiaofei, a colleague, carried a box of food as she walked in, only to see Li Jingzhi meticulously applying an ointment to the eczema on Li Yi's face. She couldn't help but frown. "This child is really from the north. How many times has he had eczema this month …"
Li Jingzhi was also a little helpless, she could only blame Li Yi for being too similar to that person, even her physique was similar, the more wet she was, the more uncomfortable she would feel.
The rice was already cold and felt like sand in his mouth. After taking two bites, her stomach hurt so much that she could not eat anymore.
Gao Xiaofei saw that her face did not look good, so she asked with concern, "Are you alright?"
Li Jingzhi waved her hand: "It's fine, just take a moment."
Being a waiter in an entertainment club, they were more or less people who were short on money, Li Jingzhi was even more so.
She got up and poured a cup of hot water for her. She said, "Let's have a drink first. We'll start at seven in the evening. We still have some work to do. Nurturing a child is tiring."
Li Jingzhi thanked her, and turned to see that Li Yi was sleeping soundly, every day there were only children, but seeing that he looked more and more like that person, Li Jingzhi was afraid.
The scene from that year was still fresh in her mind. If not for Old Master Si's interference in secretly saving her, she and this child probably wouldn't have been able to protect her.
Even though it had been hard on his all these years, Li Yi was still happy to have his by his side. As long as he didn't meet anyone with Si Family in his life, it would be good if he could continue living like this.
After she ate and rested for a while, someone called for her to bring some wine over to the private room. She looked at the soundly sleeping Li Yi and was a little reluctant to part with him, but luckily the child was sensible and wouldn't cause trouble even if he didn't see her when he woke up.
Having worked in Meng Yu Entertainment City for more than a year, she had always been cautious and quick-witted. The manager of the building had always been at ease with her, but when she thought about the person on the 16th floor, after thinking about it, she only dared to let Li Jingzhi go.
Seeing the manager's repeated warnings, Li Jingzhi knew that 309's customer was not a simple person. She knocked on the door while carrying a plate of fruits and a glass of red wine, not daring to raise her head.
The room's lights weren't lit, and the aroma of alcohol mixed with the woman's perfume was especially charming.
She lowered her head and squatted in front of the marble coffee table, opening the glass of red wine, looking straight ahead. Suddenly, a hand reached out and pulled away the goblet in her hand, but before she could react, some of the red wine had already spilled out.
She jumped in fright and hurriedly wiped the table, apologetically saying, "I'm sorry, I'll go change a new bottle for you right now …"
"It's clumsy, get lost …" Li Jingzhi was the one who started this, she kicked him away, then looked at the man seated on the sofa and laughed: President Si rarely comes to Jiang City, drinking red wine is too boring, I have to drink Maotai, that's the right taste!
"Sure." That person seemed to be smiling. His eyes fell on the woman who was holding her stomach, and a strange light flashed in his eyes.
"Hello, waiter, quickly go and change some bottles of Maotai!"
Li Jingzhi's stomach was already aching, but after being kicked, her vision turned black, and only heard someone call her to go change wine, she forced herself to stand up and walk out.
However, just as he turned around, he heard a low voice sounding from behind him.
"Wait."
She was stunned, her fingers tightened around the red wine. She stood there, afraid to move.
After a moment, the man got up from the sofa, approached her step by step, and stopped a step away from her.
He frowned slightly and said coldly, "Turn around!"
