Several messages flooded into Li Man's cell phone.

It was all from Shen Muting.

He knew that it was not convenient for Li Man to make phone calls now, so he sent WeChat instead.

"You can just leave him alone in the living room. There is no need to greet him."

"You think that by contacting him, you can get to know him better. If you know yourself and the enemy, you will be victorious. Isn't he testing you?"

While sending the message, Shen Muting strode out of the office without even taking the suit jacket hanging aside.

Shen Lu came over with the documents and saw his boss walking out with a dark face. He quickly said, "Mr. Shen, what happened?"

"Shen Shiyan went to Xishan Villa."

After just one sentence, Shen Muting said nothing else.

Seeing how anxious he was, Shen Lu was worried that it would be unsafe for him to drive, so he hurriedly followed him.

Walking to the elevator, Shen Lu pressed the door button.

Shen Muting planned to drive by himself, but Shen Lu followed him.

"Mr. Shen, let me drive. You are in no mood to drive right now. It's not safe. If anything happens, it will only be more trouble for the young lady."

Shen Lu was afraid that Shen Muting would be angry now. He had always been calm and rarely became so panicked and anxious, so Shen Lu had no choice but to move out of Li Man.

Shen Muting threw the car keys to Shen Lu, "Hurry up."

"Yes."

Shen Lu drove Shen Muting to the Xishan Villa as quickly as possible.

at the same time.

Shen Shiyan was sitting in a wheelchair in the living room of Xishan Villa.

Li Man asked the servant to bring tea.

Shen Shiyan entered the Xishan Villa for the first time and observed the world's most private luxury mansion without leaving a trace.

There is a handbag hanging on Shen Shiyan's wheelchair.

He picked up the bag and handed it to Li Man, "This is a gift for you. I was not in the country when you got married, so it is considered a belated wedding gift."

"Thank you, brother." Li Man reached out and took it, "Can I open it now and read it?"

Li Man knew about his relationship with Shen Muting, and he followed the principle of being cautious in words and deeds, so he didn't know what to say to him.

"of course."

Li Man thought he was giving a small gift, but when he opened it, he realized that the brocade box contained a brooch in the shape of a ginkgo leaf, inlaid with topaz.

Although Li Man didn't know much about gem identification, as a fashion designer, she could tell at a glance that this brooch was not cheap.

She hurriedly said: "This is too expensive. Sorry, we can't accept it."

Li Man hurriedly put the brooch into the brocade box and wanted to return it to Shen Shiyan.

Shen Shiyan said: "This thing may be expensive to ordinary people, but to you, it is just a small gadget. Do you look down on my gift?"

"That was not what I meant."

Li Man held the brocade box as if it was a hot potato.

As expected of Shen Shiyan, it was not appropriate for her to accept it even if she told her in a few words, nor was it appropriate to reject it.

"Keep it. If you want to wear it, wear it. If you don't need it, throw it away."

"If you don't accept it, we will not take any gifts from the Shen family when we get married. It is not appropriate to accept gifts from my eldest brother."

Shen Muting strode over, picked up the brocade box in Li Man's hand, put it into his handbag, and returned it to Shen Shiyan.

After a stalemate for two seconds, Shen Shiyan reached out to take it and said quietly, "We are brothers. I thought we were different from others."

"If you say that, you're right. After all, no one else has ever stepped foot inside the Xishan Villa."

The atmosphere between the brothers was tense and tense. The servant brought a glass of water, and Li Man handed it to Shen Muting, "Drink some water."

Unless he needs to stay up late to work, Shen Muting will not drink tea or coffee at night.

Shen Muting took the water and took a sip, "You go and rest. I'll sit with you."

"Okay." Li Man responded, said hello to Shen Shiyan and went upstairs.

There were only two brothers left in the huge living room.

Shen Shiyan looked first, breaking the silent atmosphere in the living room, and said in a teasing tone, "So nervous sister-in-law? In fact, you don't have to rush back. It's like there's a fire at home. You arranged bodyguards to protect her. The security of Xishan Villa is also top-notch in the world. , even if I wanted to, I wouldn't have a chance. Relax, I'm just here to meet my siblings and see what kind of woman it is that can pull you down from the altar."

"When you've finished reading, you can leave." Shen Muting coldly gave the order to expel the guests, "Uncle Tang, see the guests off."

Tang Xiu stepped forward with a respectful gesture, "Master Banquet, please come."

After all the words were said, Shen Shiyan could not continue to stay in Xishan Villa, and there was indeed nothing to say between him and Shen Muting.

She had almost no contact with him when he was a child. Later, when he learned of Shen Muting's existence, Shen Shiyan felt a sense of crisis.

Children can still fight, but now that they are older, it is long past the time for them to rely on force to solve problems.

Shen Shiyan looked deeply at Shen Muting before controlling the wheelchair and leaving.

Shen Muting strode upstairs.

Li Man is in the bedroom.

Seeing Shen Muting coming, she immediately went up to him and hugged his waist.

Shen Muting said with a straight face, "What is Mrs. Shen doing, acting coquettish and cute in an attempt to get through?"

"Angry?"

Shen Muting looked helpless, "I'm not angry, I'm worried. Do you know the danger? If he goes to extremes, you and the child will be in danger."

Shen Muting was frightened when he thought of this possibility.

"I know, I will definitely pay attention to it in the future and never do it again." Li Man looked up at him, "Don't be angry anymore, okay?"

"I am not angry."

"Then you smile."

Shen Muting couldn't laugh, so he raised his hand helplessly and pinched her cheek, and said with a smile, "You, you."

His tone was doting.

Li Man kissed him on the chin.

Shen Muting put his arm around her waist, clasped it behind her head, and kissed her on the lips.

Like dry wood, a fire burns.

It took a long time for Shen Muting to let go of her, and their breathing was out of rhythm.

Li Man said in a low voice, "Are you having a hard time enduring it? I can help..."

"It's okay, let me take it easy."

Shen Muting's voice was low, and he tried hard to suppress the restlessness in his body. He tightened his hand around Li Man to stop her next move. He waited for a while before speaking again, "You go take a shower first, and I'll make a work call." .”

"it is good."

He came back temporarily and there must be a lot of work waiting for him to handle.

Li Man took her pajamas to the bathroom. After taking a shower, Shen Muting opened the door and came in, probably from the study.

Shen Muting waved to Li Man, "Come here, I'll help you dry your hair."

Li Man walked over with a hair dryer, sat on the bed, and enjoyed his care.

"My hair seems to be a bit long and I want to cut it short. Some mothers also cut their hair short when they give birth to make it easier to manage."

Shen Muting helped her blow dry her hair carefully, very gently.

Hearing Li Man's words, he said slowly and warmly: "If you just cut your hair short because it is inconvenient to take care of and it's troublesome, then don't cut it."

Li Man raised his eyebrows and asked amidst the buzzing sound of the hair dryer, "Why?"
