"There are vegetables and eggs in the refrigerator. I'm going to cook two bowls of noodles."

As Li Man spoke, he took a handful of vegetables and two eggs from the refrigerator and went to the kitchen.

Shen Muting said to her: "I only eat soft eggs. I don't eat spicy food. I don't eat onions, garlic and coriander. I don't eat offal. I don't like carrots and celery either."

Li Man made a mental note and asked, "Then is there anything you particularly like?"

"No."

"Okay, I understand." After Li Man finished speaking, he whispered, "Why is a grown man still so picky about food?"

Shen Muting didn't hear what she muttered clearly, and said in a deep voice, "What did you say?"

"nothing!"

Li Man stuck out his tongue secretly, turned on the range hood and gas stove, and started boiling water to cook noodles.

Two bowls of noodles were cooked quickly.

After putting it on the table, Li Man took out a bottle of Lao Ganma and took a spoonful into his own noodles. She saw Shen Muting looking at her and handed it to him: "Do you want it? This one is not spicy."

"I don't eat these things."

Shen Muting refused.

"Try it, it tastes pretty good. It's mainly for cooking. When I was in prison..." Li Man suddenly realized that these words seemed inappropriate. She smiled awkwardly, "I'm sorry, I talked too much. The noodles are getting lumpy, so eat quickly."

"Ah."

Shen Muting didn't ask any further questions.

He had already asked someone to find out her situation. As for the details, he was not interested.

Shen Muting looked at the noodles in front of him with disgust and took a bite. The taste was better than he expected.

He couldn't help but raise his eyes and glance at Li Man.

"What's wrong? It's not to your liking?"

Sensing his gaze, Li Man raised her eyes and looked at him.

"No, it tastes pretty good." Shen Muting wiped the corners of his mouth and said calmly, "I see you bought a lot of things for your home, why don't you use the money I gave you?"

"These are small things that I can still afford."

"If a woman doesn't spend her husband's money, who's money should she spend?" Shen Muting raised an eyebrow, "It's good to be financially independent, but after marriage you still have to spend your husband's money."

Li Man listened and chuckled: "Many men are wary of their wives and are reluctant to spend money on their wives. It's better for you, as if you are afraid that I won't spend your money."

Shen Muting raised his eyebrows: "How can I compare to them?"

The man frowned, even the shadow cast by the light looked arrogant.

Li Man heard that he was unhappy and said hurriedly: "I understand. I will never compare you with other men in the future. From now on, I will spend my card money on what should be spent at home."

Shen Muting hummed and said nothing more.

The two of them ate noodles without saying a word.

Li Man ate slowly, and Shen Muting finished first. After she finished, she got up and put away the dishes and went to the kitchen to wash the dishes.

They agreed to share the housework, but this man was conscious of it.

Li Man got up and left the dining table, sitting on the sofa with his cell phone.

After Shen Muting finished washing the dishes, he saw Li Man sitting on the sofa, looking worried and frowning.

Shen Muting quickly looked away.

If she didn't take the initiative to ask, he wouldn't take the initiative to ask. He didn't want to meddle in other people's business. Maybe she just deliberately attracted his attention.

"It's getting late, I'm going to bed first, you should go to bed early."

"OK, good night."

Li Man responded and continued to worry about his phone.

Seeing that she didn't do anything, Shen Muting took two steps and finally stopped and asked, "What's the matter? Are you worried?"

This matter had been held in Li Man's mind for too long. After some hesitation, she told him everything about her going to Li's house and the police station to report the crime.

Finally, he added: "I was raised by my grandma, and I have been dependent on her since I was a child. Grandma is now my only relative. I really hope to find grandma, but Jiangzhou City is so big, with a population of tens of millions. It’s just as difficult for a person to find a needle in a haystack.”

Li Man's nose was sore, but she resisted the urge to shed tears, and even forced out a smile that was uglier than crying.

"Thank you for listening to my sorrows. It's nice to have someone to talk to. I feel much better after saying it."

Finding a backer for herself and her grandma was one of the reasons why she tried to contact Shen Muting on the day she was released from prison.

Who knows, God will play tricks on people.

She actually got married to an ordinary person.

Now that you are married, you will live a good life with him.

She knew very well that her husband was just an ordinary person. Although he was Shen Muting's driver, he was just a driver. He couldn't help her, and he probably didn't want to interfere with her family's affairs. This was normal.

Shen Muting saw that she was obviously sad to death, but she was holding back in front of him, and she couldn't help feeling a little strange in her heart.

He didn't know how to comfort people, so he said expressionlessly: "And me, we are married now, and I will also be your relative in the future."

As he said that, feeling that it wasn't enough, he reached out and patted Li Man's shoulder, the force so light that he could hardly feel it.

Li Man was amused by his comforting behavior: "Thank you, I was really comforted."

Shen Muting stared at Li Man: "Why are you laughing?"

"Nothing, thank you Mr. Shen. I'm going to bed. You should also go to bed early."

After saying that, Li Man prepared his room.

Shen Muting was confused.

This woman wants to cry at one moment and laugh at the next. What does she mean?

"Wait a minute." Shen Muting suddenly called out to her.

Li Man turned around: "What's wrong?"

Shen Muting said expressionlessly: "I will find an opportunity to mention your grandmother's matter to Mr. Shen and see if I can trouble him for a favor."

Li Man was delighted: "Really? Is it okay?"

"Well, give it a try, but don't expect too much."

"Okay, thank you! Good night, it's getting late, go to bed early!"

Li Man returned to his room happily.

No matter what, she was very grateful that he was willing to open his mouth and have such a heart.

Although he doesn't like to smile and seems cold to others, he is actually quite nice despite being cold on the outside and hot on the inside.

Li Man gradually adapted to her new home and slept until she woke up naturally, but she did not get up immediately.

It was still early and she wanted to sleep in.

But no matter how hard she tried to make herself comfortable, she just couldn't fall asleep again.

Li Man was very angry, angry with himself.

She got up from the bed angrily, and reflexively began to fold the quilt.

The next second, there was a pause in folding the quilt.

Li Man suddenly realized that this was her home, not a prison, and she was already out of prison.

Although I remind myself eight hundred times every day, some habits cannot be changed overnight.

Li Man became even more angry. She took out the quilt to vent her anger. Not only did she not fold the quilt, she also deliberately made a mess on the bed, and then came out of the room angrily.

Looking up, he bumped into Shen Muting who had just gotten up and came out of the room opposite.

The man wears a white shirt and black trousers. His clothes are straight and tall. His shirt is buttoned to the top. He is aloof and abstinent. He is bending his left hand to fiddle with cufflinks with a focused and serious expression.

"morning."

Li Man greeted him with a somewhat unpleasant tone.

Shen Muting heard that her tone was bad, frowned, and raised his eyes to look at her.

The two people's bedrooms were opposite the door. He saw Li Man's messy bed at a glance. His eyebrows suddenly knitted deeper and he said in a cold voice, "Why is your room so messy?"

It's just like a doghouse!
