Li Rui secretly let out a long sigh of relief. His body was a little numb because he had been curled up for too long. He wanted to move a little, but there was a mop next to him. He stretched out his leg and accidentally knocked the mop to the ground. The stainless steel mop hit the tile floor and made a loud noise.
Li Ruixin was so scared that he stopped jumping. He stared at the mop on the floor and didn't come back to his senses for a long time.
Chen Lihan was also shocked. She looked at the mop on the floor and then looked at him. She didn't know what to say.
While the two of them were at a loss, they suddenly heard a creak. The door opened again, but only halfway. Wu Ziqiang took two steps in and stood at the end of the half-open wooden door. If he took half a step forward, he would be able to see Li Rui hiding in the corner behind the door.
Li Rui couldn't see where Wu Ziqiang was standing, so he didn't know the extent of the crisis at this moment. Chen Lihan, who was sitting on the toilet, could see at a glance what was happening. Seeing this scene, she was already scared silly. Her face turned pale from anger. She opened her mouth to explain something, but no words came out.
Wu Ziqiang glanced at her coldly and then looked at the mop on the floor. He sneered and said, "Throw the mop? Vent your anger? "
Chen Lihan just stared at him and didn't say a word.
Wu Ziqiang said disdainfully, "Let me tell you, Chen Lihan. If you're angry, just vent it on me. Don't f * cking play this game with me. I didn't say anything about you. Why are you so magnanimous? I didn't ask you for a lot of money. It's just two thousand yuan. Our family has twenty million yuan. Two thousand yuan is nothing. It's not that I want to criticize you, but you're so f * cking petty. Your sister is the same. She married the Secretary-General of the Municipal Party Committee. She's just a village woman. " After saying this, he curled his lips and left. The door was also closed, but it wasn't closed completely. It was just ajar.
Although the door was closed, Li Rui was still trembling with fear. It was as if he was walking on thin ice and facing an abyss. He didn't dare to move at all. He just stayed close to the corner of the wall and didn't move. He was so scared that his whole body was covered in cold sweat.
"Bang!" The muffled sound of a violent door closing came from outside. It seemed that Wu Ziqiang had closed the door and left. After that, no more sounds could be heard.
Chen Lihan stared blankly at the door for a long time. Her beautiful eyes moved from the wooden door to Li Rui's face. The two looked at each other and revealed a bitter smile at the same time. Then, they both heaved a sigh of relief.
Li Ruixin secretly rejoiced that he hadn't brought his briefcase with him when he came up. Otherwise, he would've definitely left it on the shoe cabinet or in the living room, and Wu Ziqiang would've discovered it. Also, he was lucky that he suddenly came to the bathroom when he was about to leave, or else he would've bumped into Wu Ziqiang. Most importantly, he was lucky that Chen Lihan was quick-witted and occupied the bathroom first. Otherwise, if Wu Ziqiang barged in first, he would've been in deep trouble … While his thoughts were running wild, his peripheral vision was attracted by a flash of white. He couldn't help but look over, and his gaze fell on Chen Lihan's jade-like skin that couldn't be covered by her clothes.
When Chen Lihan saw him looking at her again, she was extremely embarrassed and said aggressively, "Go away! Why are you still looking?! "
Li Rui smiled awkwardly and turned to face the corner, saying, "I didn't do it on purpose. I didn't see anything. I swear. Hurry up and put on your clothes. "
Chen Lihan ignored him and stood up. After putting on her clothes and tidying up, she said, "Okay, turn around."
Li Rui turned his head and looked at her. Both of them were a little embarrassed and their faces were a little red.
"Haha, why are you still huddling in the corner?"
Chen Lihan suddenly realized that he was still hiding in the corner and couldn't help but laugh out loud.
Li Rui walked out with an embarrassed expression and sighed, "That was close! If it weren't for your quick thinking, he would've come in … it would've been over. " Chen Lihan said angrily, "You're so annoying. I went all out to protect you just now, but you took the opportunity to look at me when I took off my clothes." Li Rui's face was red as he explained, "I didn't do it on purpose. I just subconsciously looked at your movements. Who knew that you would suddenly take off your pants?" Chen Lihan snorted, "That was to protect you. Otherwise, if he came in to see if … if it was inconvenient, he would've been suspicious and might've discovered you." Li Rui said resentfully, "Actually, it would've been better if you didn't come in. You could've openly told your husband that there was someone in there. It was … it was your sister's relative."
Chen Lihan said, "You heard it just now. He doesn't have a good impression of my sister. If you really did say that, he would've been more suspicious of you. He might've even gone to my sister's place to make a fuss. Then, how would we explain that the two of us … the two of us … ran together?" Li Rui felt that what she said made sense. At the same time, he could tell that her attitude towards him was indeed a little ambiguous. He was delighted and asked, "Do you and your husband always quarrel like this?" Chen Lihan sighed and said, "Usually, we can make do with each other. However, if he loses money at cards or gets drunk, he'll make a fuss. At that time, I can't wait to divorce him. If it weren't for the child, I would've divorced him long ago. "
Li Rui was surprised and stared blankly at her. He thought to himself that every family had its own difficulties. A beautiful woman like her actually encountered such a disgusting marriage. It really made him feel sorry for her. Alas, how good would it be if she lived with him? He would definitely cherish her and not let her suffer any grievances.
Chen Lihan seemed to have guessed his inner thoughts. She said half-jokingly, "Do you still remember the night when I was checked for drunk driving? At that time, I was joking with you and said that you could take me back to your house. Actually, sometimes I really want to leave this house. Living with him is really boring."
Li Rui looked at her lovingly and didn't know how to comfort her.
Chen Lihan glanced at him and laughed, "Why are you looking at me like that? Do you really want to take me back to your house? Haha. "Although she was joking, her eyes were a little red. Li Rui gathered his courage and said, "I'm not afraid of you laughing at me. I really want to take you back to my house. At least, I won't let you suffer any grievances … Uh, I didn't mean that when I said take you back to my house. I just want … I want you to live happily."
When Chen Lihan heard this, her eyes became even redder. Her beautiful eyes sparkled as if tears would roll down at any time. She bit her lower lip and forced herself to joke, "Are you trying to kill me? If I really go home with you, in your words, won't Qingman strangle me to death? Haha, I appreciate your good intentions. I know you're good to me. You're really good to me. "
Li Rui saw that her eyes were full of tears. He quickly tore a piece of tissue and came back. He didn't stand on ceremony with her and gently wiped her tears. Chen Lihan didn't move and let him wipe her tears. She looked at him with her beautiful eyes. Her teary eyes looked very pitiful.
Li Rui wiped away her tears. Seeing her looking at him affectionately, his heart warmed. He didn't know where he got the courage, but he took half a step forward and decisively pulled her into his arms. Chen Lihan didn't know if she had feelings for him or she didn't expect him to do this. She didn't resist and snuggled in his arms without moving.
Li Rui regretted hugging her. He questioned himself in his heart. Why did he do this? Was it because he coveted her beauty? Or did he want to love her and take pity on her from the bottom of his heart? But no matter what, this action was too sudden and too rough. After all, the two of them hadn't reached that kind of intimate relationship. Doing this would only be rude to a beauty. Thinking of this, his heart was ashamed and regretful. He hurriedly pushed her away. In order to hide this action, he deliberately patted her back twice and whispered, "Don't cry. If you're unhappy in the future, just tell me. I'll be responsible for making you happy. I can also help you … help you beat your husband to vent your anger."
Chen Lihan looked at him deeply. A faint smile slowly appeared on her beautiful face. She said, "How will you make me happy?" Li Rui saw that she didn't take the sudden action to heart. He was relieved and smiled, "I'll tell you a joke." Chen Lihan smiled and said, "Okay, this is what you said. I'll remember it. If I'm unhappy in the future, I'll really look for you."
The two of them looked at each other and laughed at the same time.
Coming out of the bathroom, Chen Lihan walked to the door and took the red purse from the shoe cabinet. She opened it and saw that it was empty. There were only a few 10 to 20 yuan notes left. She smiled bitterly at Li Rui and said, "You really have to treat me. That bastard took all the cash." Li Rui smiled at her and took the purse. He put it on the shoe cabinet and said, "I'm the one treating. You don't have to take anything." Chen Lihan's expression changed slightly. She hurriedly reached out to grab it and said, "No, no, the vouchers are still inside. Hehe …"
… …
Half an hour later, the two of them were sitting at the bar of Maya's Fancy Barbeque. They were enjoying the freshest and most unique barbeque food. There were professional chefs at the bar in front of the two of them. After the barbeque was done, the chefs would bring the food to them. The two of them didn't have to do anything. They could either watch the chefs perform, chat, or eat and drink. They just enjoyed themselves to the fullest. It was a very bourgeois atmosphere. Of course, it cost a lot to enjoy such a bourgeois atmosphere. The admission ticket for each person cost 230 yuan. In a third or fourth-tier city like Qingyang, where the average wage was around 3,000 yuan, this was an extremely extravagant expense.
"Let's have a toast!"
Chen Lihan raised her wine glass and took the initiative to toast with Li Rui.
