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

"..."

If Shen Xingchen hadn't asked this question, Shen Li would not have cared about what happened last night.

When Shen Xingchen asked this, Shen Li turned to look at her and wanted to slap her.

Is that what I taught her? Pants on the ground don't recognize people?

Looking at Shen Xingchen with disdain, Shen Li wanted to teach her a lesson, but since he was the one who raised her and educated her, Shen Li was too lazy to criticize her.

As he applied facial cream to his face, he said nonchalantly, "I have a fever."

Shen Xingchen didn't remember what happened last night, and Shen Li didn't want to remind him.

However, his attitude towards Shen Xingchen has indeed changed a lot.

This change was not intentional on his part, it just happened suddenly, he suddenly developed a different kind of feeling for her and treated her as a peer and an adult.

Listening to Shen Li's words, Shen Xingchen said seriously: "Then uncle, you have to eat more fruits and more heat-clearing foods."

"Yeah." Shen Li responded nonchalantly, without lingering on Shen Xingchen for too long.

He was afraid that if he stared at her for too long, he would lose control and become impulsive.

After all, for the two of them, Shen Li couldn't take too much initiative.

Shen Li acted as if nothing had happened, and Shen Xingchen couldn't help but smile foolishly when seeing her smile. When she smiled, Shen Li couldn't help but burst out laughing.

After laughing, he turned to look at Shen Xingchen and said, "Go back to your room and wash up."

Shen Xingchen took two steps forward, raised his hand and touched Shen Li's Adam's apple: "Uncle, I think your Adam's apple is also very beautiful."

Shen Xingchen praised him like a flatterer, and Shen Li just found it funny.

He turned away and smiled secretly, and when he looked at her again, Shen Li remembered a lot of things about her childhood, when she was also a flatterer like this.

"Uncle is the best. Uncle is the best."

"The apples my uncle peels are so delicious."

"The boiled eggs my uncle makes are really delicious."

I remember that time, he deliberately teased her by asking, "Does the water that uncle poured for you taste good?"

As a result, the little girl held the cup in both hands and replied to him seriously: "The water my uncle poured is sweet, the best water in the world."

Now that I've grown up, I've learned how to flirt with him and how to flatter him.

Shen Li was amused, and Shen Xingchen's smile grew bigger and bigger, and he couldn't help but put his arms around Shen Li's neck.

Although nothing was said, although there was no promise and no status, Shen Xingchen dared to make a fuss with Shen Li now, and was not as reserved and awkward as he had been in the past few days.

At this time, Shen Li's hands gently fell on her waist, stroked it up and down and said, "Go back to your room and wash up, otherwise you will be late."

Shen Xingchen did not let go of Shen Li immediately, but looked into his eyes and asked: "Uncle, can I hug you for a while?"

Shen Li had no way to refuse Shen Xingchen's clear eyes.

So, after looking at her for a while, he said, "Just hug."

Although Shen Li's psychological defenses were somewhat broken, it was a bit unrealistic to expect him to completely accept Shen Xingchen all of a sudden and achieve any rapid progress.

After all, if they really want to be together, they still have to face many practical problems.

It was just that last night was too ambiguous, and the atmosphere this morning was better, so both of them were a little obsessed with it.

Shen Li did not reject her as he did in the past, but agreed to let her hug him. Shen Xingchen stood on tiptoe and hugged him, resting her chin on his shoulder.

Shen Li's heart softened when he embraced Shen Xingchen, and he subconsciously put his arms around her waist.

"Uncle, thank you, thank you for taking care of me for so many years."

"Thank you for your tolerance and acceptance of me."

She didn't know how she had disturbed him last night, but Shen Xingchen was very grateful that he didn't distance himself from her and didn't push her away like he did four years ago.

Shen Xingchen thanked him, and Shen Li said, "You're welcome."

Shen Li said rudely, and Shen Xingchen rubbed his face against his neck and put his lips on his jaw.

Shen Li did not blame her, nor did he push her away. It was only when she hugged him for a long time and clung to him and refused to let go that he reminded her, "Doctor Shen, it's already eight o'clock."

"Ah? So late?" Hearing that it was already eight o'clock, Shen Xingchen hurriedly let go of Shen Li, and hurried back to his room to pack up.

After a while, when she packed up and went downstairs, she took Shen Li away without even having breakfast.

Shen Li had foreseen this and went out with a packed breakfast, and gave it to her as soon as she got in the car.

Looking at the breakfast that Shen Li handed to him, Shen Xingchen turned around and said, "Uncle is still the best. He loves me the most."

Shen Li didn't respond to her and continued driving seriously.

It was not until Shen Xingchen had almost finished eating that he looked at her and said, "Don't drink outside in the future."

Shen Li was quite scared by Shen Xingchen's mischief last night. This happened at home, and he was just making trouble for him.

What if it's outside?

Shen Li didn't even dare to imagine it.

Drinking milk, Shen Xingchen nodded: "I understand, I will only drink with you in the future, not with others."

Shen Li: "You are really good at making promises."

"To be honest, I'm not just talking nonsense."

The two chatted intermittently. When the car arrived at the hospital, Shen Xingchen greeted Shen Li and then trotted into the hospital.

Shen Li couldn't help but smile at Shen Xingchen's energetic back.

The little girl was very contagious and made him go crazy too.

If it was because it was too late last night and he was out of control, but from his attitude this morning, Shen Li clearly felt that he was not rational and sober enough, and he was sinking a little bit.

In the following days, Shen Li did not let Lao Li take Shen Xingchen to the hospital, but went there himself.

Since the two of them couldn't get together in the evening, Lao Li went to pick her up.

On this weekend morning, Mrs. Shen finally came back after having fun outside for a few days. Shen Li also had a rare day off, and Shen Xingchen also had a day off today.

At this moment, Shen Li had gone downstairs to have breakfast, while Shen Xingchen was still sleeping upstairs.

At the dining table, Mrs. Shen brought out breakfast from the kitchen, looked at Shen Li nonchalantly and said, "Didn't Xingchen say she had driving lessons today? Didn't I tell you to call her in the morning? After you finish your meal, go call Xingchen."

He added: "If she can travel by herself, it will be more convenient for her to go anywhere."

"Ah."

"Why don't you go and yell now? Otherwise, after you finish eating, she will definitely go to practice driving without even eating."

"She is tired from studying, let her sleep a little longer."

Compared to eating, Shen Li thinks sleeping is more important.

Therefore, after having breakfast, it was half past nine before Shen Li slowly went upstairs.

In the past, Shen Li would not go to Shen Xingchen's room alone to call her, after all, she was already an adult.

But after what happened a few days ago, Shen Li was no longer bound by so many rules and regulations. He relaxed a lot and didn't care as much.

……

moment.

When he opened the door to Shen Xingchen's room and entered, he saw Shen Xingchen still sleeping soundly on the bed, with her professional books all over the desk.
