Shen Lu looked surprised and asked, "You mean the house in Triumph City? The lawsuit with Ning Xiulan hasn't been settled yet. How did you get so much money to buy the house?"

Li Man narrowed his eyes slightly, looked at Shen Lu, and asked instead, "How did you know that I bought a house in Triumph City?"

It was normal for Shen Lu to be concerned about the case before the lawsuit was settled, but it was impossible to know about her house purchase unless Shen Lu investigated.

Shen Lu realized that he had let something slip, but as Shen Muting's most capable assistant, he still maintained a calm expression and said calmly: "The boss learned that you rented across from me, considering that you should be the second I was worried about renting a house for the first time and worried that you would be in trouble, so I asked me to check your current situation, so I found out that the old lady had a property in her name.

As a subordinate, I should not interfere in the boss's personal emotional affairs. However, Miss Li, there is something I still want to say. In fact, the boss is very interested in you. I have been with him for several years and I have never seen him treat you badly. What woman has ever cared so much about it? "

Li Man believed what he said and looked away, "He is your boss, of course you should say good things for him."

Seeing that Li Man was not suspicious, Shen Lu breathed a sigh of relief.

Just then, there was a "ding" and the elevator arrived.

Li Man walked in first, and Shen Lu followed suit, continuing the topic, "I'm not saying good things for the boss. The boss is really worried about you. You don't know that he has been very angry in the company these days. Obviously I am in a bad mood, because I care about you, so I am emotionally affected."

Li Man listened quietly and didn't say much.

"Does Shen Muting know about my buying a house?" Li Man asked.

"I haven't told him yet," Shen Lu said truthfully, "Now that you are back together, the boss may not ask."

Li Man looked at Shen Lu, "Assistant Shen, can I ask you a favor?"

Shen Lu said respectfully: "You say it."

"If Shen Muting doesn't ask, can you not take the initiative to tell him about my buying a house?"

The elevator will be here soon.

Shen Lu nodded, "Okay, for the sake of letting me eat."

Li Man chuckled, "Is this a threat?"

Shen Lu's voice was gentle: "I think it's more like 'we are all so familiar, we can be considered friends', which is a behavior between friends."

"Understood, thank you."

Li Man frowned and opened the door to go home.

Grandma had already gone to bed, and there was only one wall lamp in the entrance hall turned on in the living room.

Li Man was so tired and sleepy that he didn't bother to take a shower. He returned to his room and fell into a deep sleep.

It's Friday in a blink of an eye.

Today is Shen Muyan's birthday, and Li Man is going to Wangjiang Pavilion for dinner in the evening.

Shen Muting was sitting in his office, looking out of the floor-to-ceiling window at the most prosperous financial center in Jiangzhou. From this angle, the ships transporting goods on the broad river not far away looked only as big as a palm.

"You went back to cook and accompany grandma the past few days. Today is my sister's birthday, and I will go to Wangjiang Pavilion for dinner with you? It's just a matter of adding a pair of chopsticks and a bowl." Shen Muting's voice was low.

Li Man stood at the end of the company's corridor, holding back her laughter and lowering her voice: "No, today it's me, Tang Xin and my sister. We are three women, no men."

Shen Muting didn't force it, "You don't have a good drinking tolerance, so don't drink. I'll pick you up after dinner."

Li Man said hurriedly: "No, Tang Xin will drive there. I will definitely ask a driver to take her car back when the time comes."

Shen Muting frowned, looked away from the window irritably, and asked her, "When are you going to tell them that we are back together?"

He really wanted to restore the relationship between husband and wife that he had in the Xishan Villa.

If he does not recover for a day, he will not be at ease.

Li Man thought for a while, "I haven't figured out how to tell grandma yet. If you wait, it won't be less than two days anyway."

"Okay, let me know when you decide." Shen Muting's frown deepened, but his tone did not change at all. He was still low and magnetic, but he could still feel a faint sense of intimidation and oppression from the radio waves.

"Um……"

The two chatted for a while before hanging up the phone.

After hanging up the phone, Li Man realized that Shen Muting was talking more. Like many couples talking on the phone, they talked about non-nutritious things like what you had for lunch, but he just felt happy listening to the other person's voice like this.

Shen Muting's temper also improved and he became more patient.

Li Man put away his phone and returned to the office with a smile.

Fang Xuewei saw her smiling face and radiant face, and whispered: "Envy, you and your husband have such a good relationship."

"Huh?" Li Man was startled.

Fang Xuewei pointed to her mobile phone on her desk, "Aren't you calling your husband?"

"Oh, yes, we had something to do at home, so we chatted for a while." Li Man knew that it was not good to answer personal calls during working hours, so he made up an excuse and paid special attention to propriety.

Fortunately, Fang Xuewei did not continue this topic. The two of them talked about a very popular niche women's clothing brand recently. This brand mainly uses denim fabrics and creates creations on denim fabrics.

Denim fabric is a professional term in their circle.

Denim is a foreign word, transliterated from denim, which is actually denim.

It is very common in life, jeans, denim jackets, etc.

This designer added silky satin, tulle, leather and other materials to the denim fabric. For example, ripped jeans are covered with tulle, making them looming and sexy.

Fang Xuewei was envious and admired, and then asked Li Man, "Li Man, you are so talented in design, what is your ideal?"

Li Man said without hesitation: "Create your own brand and become a world-renowned designer. What about you?"

Fang Xuewei's eyes sparkled when she looked at her, and she said with envy: "I'm not as talented as you, and I'm not as confident as you. What do I pursue? I just want to be a designer in a good company, and get a good job with my own abilities." Income, support for the family.”

"Your design is very spiritual and will definitely make a difference in the future." Li Man said sincerely.

Fang Xuewei's eyes were bright, and she felt the joy of being recognized.

It was almost time to get off work, and Li Man's cell phone suddenly rang.

It was an unfamiliar number, and Li Man pressed the answer button.

"Hello, are you Miss Li? There is a bouquet of flowers here for you. Please come out and sign for it."

"flower?"

Li Man signed for it with a surprised look on his face. He looked around but didn't see the card.

Colleagues looked envious.

"Your husband gave it to you? Wow, how romantic!"

"Such a large bouquet of flowers costs a lot of money."

"This is Hermès among roses, the Freud rose. You casually shuttle through my dreams, turning my heart into a fragrant garden." A knowledgeable colleague said, "This is also Lancôme's royal rose. In this way The big bunch can be described as quite luxurious.”

Li Man doesn't understand flowers, but she has received this kind of rose before.

She immediately knew who sent the flowers.
