The past few days had been filled with those rare sunny days. The sun was strong, and it was warm when it shined on the body.
Shen Xi passed by the munity gate and bought several sticks of candied fruits. Madam Yun and Old Shen did not like to eat sour food, so she got them strawberries.
She liked to eat sour food, like two sticks of haws. Brother suffered from indigestion, so she only got him a stick of yam beans. She also got a stick of mandarin oranges for Kun Lun.
Kun Lun had walked back and forth countless times. When he saw Shen Xi had e back with some candied fruits, he hurriedly reported, “Boss, Miss Shen is back.”
Li Yuan nodded, and instructed in a deep tone, “Get everything up here.”
Right after getting home, Shen Xi kept the two sticks of candied strawberries, before climbing up the staircases excitedly. What she first saw was a man sitting at the dinner table.
The man was wearing a handsome long black trench coat. By just sitting there silently, he could vividly express what it meant to have class.
“Brother.” Shen Xi raised the candied fruit in her hand. “A stick of candied fruit doesn’t make a dinner.”
When Li Yuan saw the young lady sticking out her head full of fluffy hair from the corner, his eyes filled with laughter as his smile deepened. “I would like to invite you for a meal.”
“It’s only Thursday, why would you treat me to a meal?” Shen Xi muttered, and threw the candied fruit accurately on the plate in front of him. She clapped happily like a baby. “Bullseye!!”
“I’ll be out for a few days on a business trip. So, I would like to celebrate in advance.” Li Yuan picked up the candied fruit with his slender fingers, and opened the wrapping paper. It was a bunch of yam beans.
This little girl liked to buy all kinds of snacks, like roasted sweet potatoes, and candied chestnuts. Her favourite one was candied haws, but she only gave him a stick of yam beans every time.
He also wanted to know what the red hawthorn in her hand tasted like!
“What if the TV ratings aren’t good enough?” Shen Xi muttered while eating her candied haws.
“It’ll definitely be a blast.” Li Yuan also ate a yam bean, and the sweet taste spread between his lips and teeth, as sweet as a little girl’s smile.
“Brother, if you say it’s a hit then it’ll be a hit.” Shen Xi smiled and nodded. She stretched out the candied haws towards him. “Cheers.”
Li Yuan picked up the yam bean and toasted her candied haws.
Shen Xi felt effervescent looking at the shadows on the wall touching each other perfectly. He must have had practice to be able to toast her at once.
“Is today’s schedule going well?” Li Yuan asked her.
“Yeah.” Shen Xi nodded and said with a smile, “Brother, if you attend any important large-scale event in the future, tell me. I will give you a styling for free.”
“Okay.” Li Yuan’s voice was cheerful. “He didn’t embarrass you, did he?”
Fu Qingye is gentle to others, but he could be rigorous and harsh due to his pursuit of perfection.
“No, Mr. Fu is very nice.” Shen Xi mentioned him, and a sense of regret quickly flashed through her heart.
“That’s good.” Li Yuan raised his head slightly, and he could see this little girl’s face flushed red by the setting sun.
Like a miniature sun, she was warm, as if sunshine was gently emanating from her. His heart felt warm with it whenever he saw her.
Shen Xi wanted to endure, but in the end, she could not hold back and asked him, “Brother, do you know Mr. Fu?”
“Yeah.” Li Yuan smiled. “I’ve met him a few times.”
He and the Fu family met each other accidentally during the process of tracing people.
The Fu family was looking for their younger sister, while he was searching for his little girl.
Nevertheless, he was lucky to have found his little girl.
However, according to Fu Yu, there was still no sign of Fu’s sister.
