Mrs. Lu, Mr. Lu will come back and spend the night tonight.

Seeing this, Shen Li turned his eyes away and said gently, "No." He then said, "Uncle Beicheng and Aunt Nanyan will pick you up for dinner tomorrow night to welcome you."

"Okay, I'll go there myself tomorrow."

"By the way, Xingchen, you've returned to City A and will soon be going to the hospital for internship. Auntie will take you to choose a car tomorrow. What kind of car do you like?"

"The car that Mrs. Zhang used to buy groceries was pretty good. I can drive that one." Shen Xingchen passed the driving test the year he graduated from high school.

When Mrs. Shen heard that she wanted to drive an old car, how could she agree? She said, "No, that car is several years old. Mrs. Zhang doesn't drive it anymore, so how can I let you drive it?"

In fact, it’s not a very bad car, but it costs more than 300,000 yuan.

Then he added: "When the time comes, ask your uncle to take you on the road for a couple of runs, and then you will be able to drive."

Mrs. Shen was firm in her stance and insisted on buying her a new car, so Shen Xingchen had no choice but to say, "Then I'll follow your aunt's arrangements. But aunt, I'm only going to the hospital for an internship, so I have to keep a low profile."

"Don't worry, I won't buy you those cars that are too eye-catching. Remember that you like big cars, so I will buy you a big car."

So later, she ordered a Mercedes-Benz G-Class for Shen Xingchen, which made Shen Xingchen laugh and cry.

Opposite Shen Xingchen, Shen Li watched his mother and Shen Xingchen chatting and felt completely marginalized and ignored.

At this moment, Shen Xingchen gladly accepted Mrs. Shen's kindness to him, because he knew in his heart that he had long been a member of the Shen family and one of their own.

If she was too polite, it would be considered as being distant with them and would make Madam Shen sad.

Shen Li withdrew his gaze lightly, thinking that Shen Xingchen would be in City A in the future, studying and working here, and he felt inexplicably at ease.

After dinner, Shen Xingchen chatted with Mrs. Shen downstairs for a while, and then went upstairs to continue studying.

Just as she entered the room, Jiang Yi called her again to verify some data with her.

Shen Xingchen's door was not closed tightly, and when she answered the phone, Shen Li happened to pass by the door.

She called him Xiao Jiang all the time, and Shen Li didn't think the blind date his mother introduced to him would be anything special. Instead, he felt that this Xiao Jiang was very attached to Shen Xingchen.

She's only been back for one day and he's already called her three times.

Strictly speaking, there were more than three calls, because Shen Xingchen did not receive some calls while he was sleeping in the afternoon.

Shen Li left Shen Xingchen's room slowly, feeling inexplicably unhappy.

Inside the room, after Shen Xingchen hung up the phone, he continued to sit at the desk and continue writing the report without thinking deeply about it at all.

By the time she finished the report at hand and stretched herself up from her chair, it was almost one in the morning.

Feeling a little hungry, Shen Xingchen moved her neck, opened the door and went outside to find something to eat. She saw Shen Li passing by her door holding a cup.

The moment he saw Shen Li, Shen Xingchen shouted in surprise: "Uncle."

I thought I was late, but it turned out that someone else was also late.

Shen Li's eyebrows tightened when Shen Xingchen called him uncle: "It's so late, why haven't you slept yet?"

Shen Xingchen scratched his hair: "I just finished writing the report, I didn't pay attention to the time."

After that, he put his right hand on his stomach and said, "I'm a little hungry. I want to go downstairs and find something to eat."

"..." Shen Li.

After staring at Shen Xingchen for a while, Shen Li turned around and walked towards the stairwell again.

Shen Xingchen saw Shen Li turning around and going downstairs again, so she hurried out of the room and asked, "Uncle, where are you going?"

Shen Li turned around and said, "Aren't you hungry? I'll get you something to eat."

Shen Xingchen listened to Shen Li's words and followed him downstairs.

When they got to the kitchen, Shen Li opened the refrigerator and turned to look at her and asked, "Do you want noodles or dumplings?"

"dumpling."

As soon as Shen Xingchen finished speaking, Shen Li took the dumplings out of the refrigerator and poured hot water into the pot.

Seeing this, Shen Xingchen just leaned on the door and watched Shen Li cook dumplings for her.

I originally wanted to come down and find something to eat, but I didn't expect to meet Shen Li and bother him.

After a while, the hot dumplings were cooked, and Shen Li also cut a small stack of braised beef for Shen Xingchen.

"Thank you, uncle." Looking at the dumplings and braised beef with soy sauce that Shen Li brought to her, for a moment, Shen Xingchen seemed to have returned to many years ago when she was still a child.

She remembered when she first came to the Shen family, she had not let go of the death of her parents and often couldn't eat at regular meal times. Later, she was too hungry and secretly went downstairs to find something to eat, and as a result, she met Shen Li.

At that time, he did the same as he does now, without disturbing the servants at home, but went to the kitchen to cook for her himself.

So she has always been particularly attached to Shen Li.

Later, I didn’t dare to stick to him because I was afraid that he would dislike me and cause him trouble.

Later, after four years of independence in college, she understood that she could live well on her own and she didn't have to rely completely on one person.

Time will heal everything, and time will also teach people to grow.

"Uncle, do you want to eat?"

"I don't want to eat." Shen Li: "Shen Xingchen, your work and rest habits are not good, you have to adjust."

He also said: "I haven't graduated yet, and I haven't officially started working yet. If I start to endure it now, what will I do in the future?"

In comparison, no matter whether it is Shen Xingchen's future career or Shen Xingchen's studies, Shen Li feels that it is not as important as her health.

Moreover, when she chose to study medicine, he originally disagreed because he thought it was too hard.

But the situation was special at that time, so he did not interfere with her decision.

Stuffing a dumpling into her mouth, she said, "I'll get used to it."

Shen Li: "Anyway, you always agree with your mouth when I tell you. I hope you can carry it out."

Shen Xingchen stuck out her tongue at Shen Li mischievously while he was scolding her, then put another dumpling into her mouth.

At the side, Shen Li saw soup at the corner of her mouth, so he took a tissue and wiped it for her, as if she was still Shen Xingchen who had not grown up many years ago.

When Shen Li wiped her mouth, Shen Xingchen paused and just looked at him.

When Shen Xingchen looked at him, Shen Li realized that Shen Xingchen was already 22 years old, and not the Xingchen who was seven or eight years old and said he was hungry and asked him for food.

His eyes moved, and Shen Li stuffed the tissue into Shen Xingchen's hand: "You are so old, but you still can't pick up chopsticks properly like before."

Shen Xingchen took the tissue and wiped his mouth and said, "I never learned how to use chopsticks properly when I was a kid, and now it's become a habit."

Shen Xingchen acted as if nothing had happened. Shen Li remembered that she still had to go on a blind date, so he asked, "Don't you say you have to take the postgraduate entrance examination? Do you still have time to go on a blind date?"

Shen Xingchen said while eating dumplings: "It's just a meal, others may not be able to compare with me."

"Besides, this matchmaking is definitely going to happen, and this marriage is definitely going to happen. The sooner I get married, the more my aunt and grandmother will feel at ease, and I'll have to listen to less nagging."
