It was Allen calling.

Li Man had a lot to say to him.

She glanced at Shen Muting.

Although Shen Muting didn't like that Allen was dating Li Man too closely, he also knew that he couldn't be jealous. He said quietly, "Tsk, that's good. I've made some progress. I even know how to ask my husband for advice."

Li Man glanced at him and said, "Who asked you for instructions? I just want to tell you that I will answer the phone and you can stay with grandma for a while."

After saying that, Li Man walked out of the ward, pressed the answer button, and put the phone to his ear, "Alan?"

Allen's laughter came from the phone. The man's voice was still gentle and personable, "Well, it's me. Where are you now? I'm calling you at this time. I'm not disturbing you, right?"

"I'm in the hospital now, staying with grandma, don't bother me."

Li Man wanted to ask him if it was okay for him to call her?

The words came to his mouth and swallowed again.

I'm afraid that Ellen will think too much if she says this, and only call her if something happens, but don't call her if nothing happens.

Li Man started talking.

There was silence on the phone for a moment.

It's only been a few days, but it seems like we are already unfamiliar.

Li Man suddenly felt sad and felt very sorry for Allen.

She couldn't repay her life-saving grace, but she couldn't commit herself to him either.

After a few seconds of silence, Allen broke the silence and asked, "Have you found out the truth about the kidnapping?"

Li Man nodded, "Yes, I checked it out."

Allen smiled, "That's good! I've been busy with work these days and haven't cared about your business. Just find out the truth and catch the real culprit. I'm happy for you."

"Thank you."

Li Man's nose felt sore, and a layer of mist could not help but form in his eyes.

The better Allen treated her, the more uncomfortable she felt, like a ball of wet cotton stuffed inside.

She can't give Allen anything, after all, she can only be a friend.

When Shen Muting came out of the ward, he saw Li Man standing by the window making a phone call, with a worried look on his face.

He froze in place and did not step forward.

Li Man continued to call Allen and did not notice Shen Muting.

Allen said, "I bought a ticket for tonight. If you have time tonight, let's have a meal together. If you don't have time, forget it. We will make an appointment next time. Anyway, Paris is not far from Jiangzhou. Now we can take a plane." very convenient."

"You're leaving today?" Li Man looked surprised.

"Well, the matter in Jiangzhou has been taken care of. Why, you are reluctant to let me go back?" Allen raised his eyebrows.

"I have been busy with my own affairs. Now that I think of the past, you have to go back before you have fulfilled your duties as a landlord," Li Man asked hurriedly, "What time is your flight in the evening?"

"Ten forty-five." Allen said warmly.

"Then I'll treat you to dinner!" Li Man said immediately.

"Okay, then I'm welcome."

"Well, I'll go find a place now and let you know when I've made the reservation."

"no problem."

Allen unceremoniously agreed to Li Man's invitation.

She remembered what happened in the past. As Mrs. Shen, she didn't need him to worry about it now.

He was happy for Li Man, but there seemed to be an empty space in his heart.

There seemed to be two villains fighting in my heart.

One encouraged him not to give up and snatched Li Man over.

One of them advised him to be sensible. They were husband and wife and they had feelings for each other. If a third party interfered, they might lose everything and not even be friends.

Allen felt that he would go crazy if he stayed in Jiangzhou any longer.

Before sinking deeper and becoming more greedy, he immediately booked a flight back to Paris.

Time and distance should calm his restless heart, right?

After hanging up the phone, Li Man prepared to book a private room in Wangjiang Pavilion.

I don’t know if I can still order it at this time.

Shen Muting then walked over and said calmly, "Have you finished the phone call?"

Li Man was checking Jiang Ge's contact information and responded without raising his head, "Yes."

Shen Muting heard the content of her call, glanced at the interface of her mobile phone, tugged at the corner of her mouth helplessly, and said warmly, "I asked Shen Lu to book a seat at Wangjiang Pavilion, and we will have a candlelight dinner tonight. Do you want to I’ll let them prepare whatever dishes we want to eat in advance.”

Li Man's eyes lit up and he immediately raised his eyes to look at Shen Muting, "Have you made a reservation at Wangjiang Pavilion?"

"Well, do you like Wangjiang Pavilion's food so much?" Shen Muting pretended to be stupid and didn't know what she was planning to do by inviting Allen to dinner.

"Yes." Li Man was extremely happy and nodded heavily. His moist eyes were smiling and he looked at Shen Muting unblinkingly.

Shen Muting couldn't stand her seductive and unaware look, and his Adam's apple rolled slightly, "Why are you looking at me like that?"

Li Man bit his lip, and then frowned at Shen Muting, "I have a heartfelt request. I want to invite a friend of mine to Wangjiang Pavilion for a meal with you. You are my husband. I can just take this opportunity to formally introduce you to each other. Is that okay?"

Shen Muting also temporarily ordered Shen Lu to find a seat just now, and originally planned to use it for her to treat Allen to dinner.

However, Li Man's words "You are my husband" still pleased him invisibly.

"Little fox, okay, no problem." Shen Muting agreed readily.

Li Man raised his eyebrows, "You agreed so readily and didn't ask me who I wanted to invite to dinner?"

Shen Muting deliberately followed her words and said, "Why, is it someone I don't want to invite to dinner? Then tell me who you want to invite to dinner. If it's someone I don't like, just pretend I didn't say anything."

Li Man said immediately, "No, a gentleman's words are hard to follow. You have already promised me and you cannot go back on your word."

Shen Muting curled his lips and said quietly, "I am not a gentleman, I am a capitalist."

"I don't care, you are my husband anyway, and my friends are your friends. You can't go back on your promise to me."

Shen Muting suppressed the raised corners of his mouth and asked, "So, which friend of yours are you going to invite to dinner?"

"Alan." As if he was afraid of Shen Muting's rejection, Li Man immediately explained, "He and I are really just friends. If I had anything to do with him, I would not go back to Jiangzhou."

Shen Muting looked at her hurried explanation, raised his hand and rubbed her head, "I know."

Li Man observed him and saw that his expression had not changed and he was not jealous. He said in disbelief, "Are you not jealous this time? Because I remembered and found out the truth?"

Shen Muting, "I know you are just friends with him, and he is also your savior, which is a little bit special. As you said, if you really like him, you will be together in the half year you get together. You won’t go back to Jiangzhou, and there will be nothing wrong with me.”

Li Man curled his lips, "Then you were still jealous at that time?"

Shen Muting snorted coldly and said arrogantly, "I just cared about it at the time and was jealous. I couldn't accept the thought of you trusting him so much but not trusting me."

Li Man blinked and said playfully, "Since you are no longer jealous, can I invite Allen to Wangjiang Pavilion to have dinner with us tonight?"
