After the divorce, I became a rich girl

He Zhizhou just smiled after hearing Li Yan's complaints, and stopped talking, but continued to drink in a dull manner. Li Yan looked at him and finally asked the question that had puzzled him for a long time: "Zhizhou, in fact, I have always wanted to ask you over the years, since you love Xuanbao so much, why did you break up in the first place?"

He Zhizhou was stunned for a moment, then put down the beer can in his hand, took a deep breath, and slowly said: "In fact, the reason why we broke up was very simple and complicated. At that time, I suddenly realized that I didn't seem to know her anymore, and I didn't know what she wanted. There began to be differences in our concepts, and they became bigger and bigger, to the point where they could not be reconciled. You know, differences in concepts are the most difficult gap to cross in a relationship."

Hearing this, Li Yan couldn't help but sigh: "I always thought you would be together until the end, after all, you loved each other so much. When Xuanbao went abroad to study, you even gave up the top university in China and chose to go with her. At that time, I really recognized you as my brother-in-law. But I didn't expect that you would still separate in the end. Later, after Xuanbao came back from studying abroad, she suddenly married Yang Shihui."

The two fell silent again. In the audio-visual room, the only sounds were the gentle clinking of beer cans and the occasional sound of wind coming in from the window.

He Zhizhou looked up at the ceiling, as if trying to release the depression in his heart. After a long time, he sighed heavily, stretched out the beer can in his hand and gently touched it with Li Yan's: "It can only be said that things in the world are unpredictable. Until the end, no one knows what the result will be."

Seeing this, Li Yan patted He Zhizhou's shoulder comfortingly: "Zhizhou, since your concepts are irreconcilable, try to let it go. You should not only think about yourself, but also think about your mother. She is so old, and she had a heart bypass surgery some time ago, and her health is not as good as before. She is so eager to hold her grandchildren, and every time she sees my Xuanyi, she can't let go. As her son, you should let her enjoy her old age instead of worrying about you all the time."

He Zhizhou smiled when he heard this, and looked at Li Yan with a teasing look in his eyes: "I like Xuan Yi very much too. He is so smart and cute, how about you let Xuan Yi come to my house more often every week?"

Li Yan couldn't help but sneer after hearing this. After drinking half a can of beer, he said, "You're dreaming! Xuan Yi is my son, and you go there a few more times a week? Why don't you let him live in your house? If you want a son, go give birth to one yourself!"

When Li Jiawei returned home, Xiao Yi was lying casually on the sofa, holding the script tightly in his hands, his eyes focused and deep.

Seeing her come back, Xiao Yi's face immediately blossomed with a warm smile. He quickly sat up, strode towards her, naturally put his arm around her waist, and asked with concern: "Why did you come back so soon?"

Li Jiawei said softly, "Well, nothing serious, I just came back. What did you eat for lunch? Did you take good care of yourself?"

Xiao Yi said: "I heated up the leftovers from last night and steamed a bowl of rice for lunch." They both lived in poverty. Although they are rich now, they have developed a frugal lifestyle and know that wasting food is shameful.

After hearing this, Li Jiawei hugged Xiao Yi's arm, as if to convey all her love to him. "On my way back, I went to the supermarket and bought some fresh ingredients. We're having hot pot tonight."

Xiao Yi's eyes lit up when he heard this, and a doting smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. He gently rubbed the top of Li Jiawei's head, as if silently thanking her for her attentiveness and thoughtfulness: "Okay"

It was almost dinner time, and the two began to clean up. Since they were the only ones eating, they didn't prepare much food. A box of fresh beef rolls, a box of crystal clear fish fillets, a box of fish balls and sausages. For vegetables, Li Jiawei made a vegetable platter with baby cabbage, enoki mushrooms, and potato chips.

Li Jiawei did not buy hot pot base, but made fish head soup as the base herself. The rich flavor spread in the kitchen, making people drool. Xiao Yi was responsible for preparing the dipping sauce.

Xiao Yi looked at Li Jiawei's busy figure. At this moment, he deeply realized the meaning of home more than ever before. His heart, which had been wandering for a long time, finally found a home.

He couldn't help but pick up his phone and took a photo of the fish soup pot and various dishes on the table to record this warm feeling. He then sent the photo to Xue Tao with a text message: "Weekends and hot pot, a perfect match!"

At this moment, Xue Tao was sitting in the bar drinking. Looking at the photos sent by Xiao Yi, the corners of his mouth rose unconsciously: "You are showing off in front of me again, be careful or I will assign you a job now."

Xiao Yi received Xue Tao's reply and responded with a smile: "Just satisfy my desire to show off, or I will post it on the social platform."

Xue Tao replied quickly, with a hint of joking: "You dare!"

Then he understood Xiao Yi's personality very well. He was a cool and aloof man on weekdays, but he could not suppress his childishness sometimes. He said helplessly: "If you want to show off something, just send it to me. Let me bear the blow alone. It's so late, don't bother those reporters and fans."

When Li Jiawei came out of the kitchen with two plates in her hand, she saw Xiao Yi typing jokingly and said with a smile, "It's time to eat!"

The fish soup is very delicious. Now, Li Jiawei has learned cooking skills from Mrs. Liu, and her skills have improved greatly. The dishes she makes are not inferior to those in ordinary restaurants.

Li Jiawei saw Xiao Yi taste the fish soup and asked, "How does it taste?"

Xiao Yi praised: "It tastes good!"

It is always a pleasant thing to be appreciated by diners for one's cooking skills. Li Jiawei picked up a piece of fish, dipped it in the fish pot, and placed it on the plate in front of Xiao Yi: "Try this, is it more delicious?"

No matter what dish Li Jiawei gave Xiao Yi, he would praise it. After the meal, Li Jiawei felt like she had become a five-star chef.

After eating hot pot, Xiao Yi took charge of washing the dishes and cleaning.

After cleaning up, since both of them had eaten a lot, Li Jiawei suggested, "How about we take a walk in the community to help digest the food?"

Xiao Yi quickly said, "Okay." However, in order to avoid being seen, he still put on a mask and went downstairs holding Li Jiawei's hand.

The community has an elegant environment, like a park, and there are residents taking a leisurely walk downstairs. However, the community is large in scale and has lush greenery, creating a winding and quiet path. If you don't want to meet other people, you won't meet them.

The two walked side by side on the path, with carefully transplanted bamboo forests on both sides. Li Jiawei said softly: "Xiao Yi, my father wants to see you."

Hearing this, Xiao Yi asked nervously, "Does Uncle already know that we are dating?"

Li Jiawei nodded and replied, "Well, when my father came to see me yesterday, he saw your name registered at the gate and didn't go upstairs to disturb me. He asked me today, and I told him the truth."

Xiao Yi held Li Jiawei's hand tightly and asked, "When will uncle see me?"

Li Jiawei smiled and replied: "Let me take you back for dinner tomorrow night."
