The man leaned his head on the back of the chair, raised his chin slightly, and the shadow of his tall nose fell to one side.
Holding her hand, he gently drew it back.
Ye Nanyi leaned forward, put one hand on the back of his chair, and looked down at him.
Seeing him looking so pitiful that he couldn't eat, Ye Nanyi pursed her lips and smiled like a little fox.
"Then which way do you want? Why don't you lie down and I'll press it for you?" She innocently blinked her innocent little deer eyes, which were clear and untainted by dust.
It is a sin for others to covet you.
Li Beihan's Adam's apple rolled up and down. How did the little thing do it, say the most ambiguous words and make the most innocent expressions?
You know you can't do anything now, but you still let him lie down?
He held the back of the girl's neck with his palm, and traced her delicate cheek with his thumb pads, staring at her with his narrow phoenix eyes.
The two of them moved up and down, their breath lingering between each other...
A cell phone rang, interrupting their gaze.
Ye Nanyi took out her mobile phone, and a series of unfamiliar numbers were displayed on it.
She just picked up the phone, and before she could say the first word, her lips were kissed by the man.
"Hey...um..."
She quickly moved the phone away, and even though she only let out a small hum at the tip of her nose, it was heard by the person opposite.
Li Beihan put his arms around her waist and raised a smirk on his lips.
Ye Nanyi could only block the man in front of her with one hand, leaning her whole body back forty-five degrees, "Hello, who are you?"
There was a brief silence on the other end of the phone for two seconds, "Yiyi, it's me."
Ling Feier's very recognizable voice came, sounding a little weak.
"Is something wrong?" Ye Nanyi stood up straight, no longer resisting Li Beihan, and allowed the man in front of him to do whatever he wanted.
From time to time, a faint gasp came from the tip of the nose.
"Yiyi, I will be discharged from the hospital soon. My house in the imperial capital has not been renovated yet, and I have no friends, so it is inconvenient. I will pick you up at your place for two days..."
"inconvenient."
It's really inconvenient, Si Rui is still in Tangyuan! It's not like her family is a stopover, anyone can pick it up.
Besides, what is this woman’s intention? She doesn’t know?
After saying these three words, Ye Nanyi felt a little unkind, "I can book a hotel for you, do you need it?"
"Then I'll trouble you, Yiyi."
It's really not polite at all.
Ye Nanyi patiently said, "When will you be discharged from the hospital, I will have someone pick you up."
"tomorrow morning."
"good."
After hanging up the phone, Li Beihan looked at her suspiciously, "Are you so free?"
He heard the entire conversation just now.
Ye Nanyi smiled half-heartedly, "She likes acting, so just keep acting with her! It's boring to expose her, let's see what she wants to do."
"Stay away from her. She is not as simple as you seem. She took that shot voluntarily. There is no need to feel guilty about her." Li Beihan straightened the person in his arms, touched her head, and looked down. There was a scar on her forehead, and her eyes became cold and dark.
"Do you look like me?"
"like what?"
"Do I look like a good person?" Ye Nanyi raised an eyebrow, "Li Canghai was able to kidnap me so smoothly, and Ling Fei'er had a lot to do with it. I know it. Don't worry, I will be careful."
She walked around to the marble dining table, opened the lunch box, and placed the meals on the table one by one.
The two sat down facing each other. Ye Nanyi took the initiative to serve the man in front of him, and his enthusiasm was a bit unusual.
"If you have anything to say, just say it." Li Beihan looked at her with half-squinted eyes.
Not to mention, he felt uneasy even while eating.
Ye Nanyi pursed her lips and said, "If I say this, it would be too purposeful."
"Say." Li Beihan didn't move his chopsticks, his sharp phoenix eyes seemed to be able to see through everything.
There really is nothing you can hide from him.
"Actually, I have a question to ask you about...real estate development."
"Why are you suddenly interested in this aspect?" His eyes were scrutinizing.
Ye Nanyi avoided his gaze, looked at her favorite stir-fried pork, took a bite and put it in her mouth, holding her chopsticks in her mouth, and said casually: "Because, I want to develop the slums."
She spoke quickly and in a low voice, sounding like she had no confidence.
In fact, once she said it, the decision was unshakable.
She was very determined and had already figured out that she would face opposition from many people.
But after finally being reborn, she wanted to do something she couldn't even think of doing in her previous life.
Surprise flashed across Li Beihan's eyes, and his cold eyebrows narrowed slightly, "Do you know what you are talking about?"
"I know." Her tone was like a angry child, but her eyes were very stubborn.
"Then you should also know about the disaster in the slums?"
"Are you talking about the reclamation plan? That's why I wanted to ask you what procedures are needed to develop there."
"Even if you move the head of China here, you won't be able to develop it, so give up."
Li Beihan picked up his chopsticks and ate the food in front of him with graceful movements. The ordinary home-cooked food tasted like a Michelin restaurant.
Seeing that the little thing in front of him didn't move his chopsticks, he sighed helplessly and wiped his mouth with a tissue.
"You know too little. It is impossible for China to allow anyone to develop there. So you should save your efforts. If you have this time, why not spend more time with me."
The little thing wants to do a lot, can't you just stay by his side?
Ye Nanyi stuck out her tongue. Does she seem like an obedient person?
She knows too little, so what if she knows more?
Li Beihan could tell from her eyes that she would not give up so easily.
"Whether you like to design cheongsams or run an entertainment company, I won't stop you. But don't think about developing slums, and don't do it. It's meaningless and it will only be a waste of time."
Li Beihan's words made her heart sink to the bottom.
But it was only for a moment.
What is meaningful and what is meaningless?
Everyone has a different definition of the word 'meaningful'.
…
After leaving Li's consortium, Ye Nanyi returned to the studio.
I still owe two cheongsam design drafts.
Before drawing, she searched the Internet. As soon as she entered the five words "Imperial Capital Slums", the following entry appeared:
Low class people in the slums of the imperial capital
Crime rate in imperial slums
Various infectious diseases are rampant in the slums of the imperial capital, and the sources of infection in urban areas
A refuge for crime, prostitution, and marginal activities in the slums of the Imperial City
The Imperial City slums are a place that has nothing to do with integrity and health.
The slums of the imperial capital...
Looking at these words, it seems that people in the slums have long been equated with these words.
But there is just a corner that has been abandoned by the city. It clearly belongs to this city, but it cannot integrate into it, and it has to endure all the injustice and discrimination brought by this city.
Who can I talk to to reason with you?
"Mr. Ye, the store called and said that an old man is looking for you. Can you bring her over?"
Ye Nanyi put away her thoughts, who would come to find her?
"Bring it here."
The store is not far from the studio. You can take the elevator directly from the TOD shopping mall to the TOD building behind it.
