At noon, Shi Mubai returned to the apartment for dinner.

Lin Yuqi put the food on the table and waited obediently for Shi Mubai to come, because he said he would be arriving soon.

"Then let's eat together when he comes," she thought.

Sure enough, not long after, Shi Mubai came back.

After the man washed his hands and sat on the dining chair, Lin Yuqi glanced at him and said, "Huh? Why are your eyes red?"

Shi Mubai panicked, "When we first arrived, the wind was strong and the sand was blinding us."

"I remember there was no wind when I first came back. Did the weather in Jiangcheng change so quickly?" Lin Yuqi thought to herself.

After looking at it a few more times, the more she looked, the more she felt something was wrong, "Why does it look like she was crying, so her eyes turned red."

But it was obvious that Shi Mubai didn't want to say it, so she just pretended not to know.

"What on earth could make him cry so hard that his eyes turn red? Mr. Shi is a strong man." Lin Yuqi couldn't help but think.

Just when the woman was about to lower her head to eat, Shi Mubai suddenly said, "What's wrong with your mouth? And your nose?"

The man saw the marks on her face and said, "Did you just do it today? I don't remember it last night."

Lin Yuqi touched her nose and said, "I don't remember it either. It happened in the morning."

She was quite surprised when she saw it in the morning, but she just went to cook and didn't have time to look carefully.

No one asked at the law firm, so she thought it wasn't that obvious.

Well, most of the people around your workstation know that you fell. They all saw it last night, so of course they won’t ask.

She didn't look like she was lying, but Shi Mubai stared at her lips, and the more he looked at them, the more he felt that they looked like someone had chewed them.

Lin Yuqi noticed that the man's eyes were always on her mouth and licked it unconsciously, "Um, is it obvious? You shouldn't need to apply ointment."

She felt that Shi Mubai was looking at her strangely, but she couldn't tell why.

"Have you a boyfriend?" Shi Mubai couldn't hold back and asked anyway.

Lin Yuqi, who was eating rice, almost choked, "No, no, I didn't. How did you see that?"

She thought it was funny. She had been solo for more than 20 years, but she wanted to have a boyfriend. Didn't she never meet him?

Besides, she is contractually married to him now, so she shouldn't be able to fall in love.

Comrade Lin is still relatively conservative. She thinks it is better to wait until they get divorced and then find a partner by herself. Otherwise, I always feel weird, like, well, like I'm cheating.

"Don't you see that the scar on the corner of your mouth looks like a bite?" Shi Mubai simply said what he was thinking.

"Bited by a human? How could a human bite her (lip)?" Wait, something suddenly occurred to her, and Lin Yuqi's face froze, "He couldn't be talking about..."

Seeing the change in the face of the person opposite, Shi Mubai knew that she understood what he meant.

Seeing that Lin Yuqi didn't speak, he thought she had acquiesced, "So that's it (yes?)"

Before he could finish speaking, the woman denied it, "Of course not, I, it should have been done last night, I, I really can't remember."

Opposite him, Shi Mubai looked like he was going to continue making it up. Lin Yuqi thought carefully about what happened yesterday. Suddenly, a picture flashed in his mind.

"I remembered, last night Chen Yan said that I fell to the ground drunk, and he helped me up. I should have knocked on the ground."

"It's definitely not what you think!" the woman emphasized again.

Shi Mubai thought for a while, "That's right. She seems to have no other thoughts about that lawyer."

"Okay, stop talking and let's eat."

After listening to Lin Yuqi's explanation, he felt no congestion at all. He felt hungry in his stomach, and now he just wanted to eat quickly.

The woman thought to herself, "Isn't this why you don't eat all the time and insist on asking questions?"

"Oh, men just love to pick on those little details." Lin Yuqi sighed in her heart.

"By the way, my grandpa may be coming in a few days. I may have to ask you to cook more food then." Shi Mubai thought about telling her in advance so as not to forget it then.

"Oh, okay, I understand."

After a long time, Lin Yuqi almost finished eating, and he suddenly remembered, "By the way, that, he doesn't know about our contract marriage."

"I'm asking you to help me cover up. Just don't reveal your secret."

Lin Yuqi now gets a headache when she hears these two words, "revealing the secret", she is also afraid of revealing the secret. One or two people asked her to help with "acting", and she didn't major in acting.

"Okay, I'll try my best not to reveal anything." Lin Yuqi looked helpless.

"Oh, life is so difficult." The woman complained in her heart.
