Chapter 61 Is there a man hiding in the house?

What if you suddenly said to any of these people, "How about I give you a suite?"

To a large extent, the other party might think there's some kind of conspiracy.

Shen Zhaoyi felt she needed to think about it again.

At 11 p.m., Su Ye's schedule ended, and Mu Mu's schedule would be a little later.

She left her tablet charging in the living room and took her silent phone back to her bedroom.

Not long after, Su Ye made a video call.

Shen Zhaoyi hesitated for a moment, then finally decided to leave the live stream and connect to the video call.

In front of the camera, Su Ye's eyes were gentle, like a pool of water that could drown a person.

He asked, "What delicious food did you go out for tonight?"

"A local specialty restaurant, and the food is pretty good." Shen Zhaoyi lay lazily on her pillow.

Nowadays, videos no longer reflect the initial concern for one's image.

As they chatted, she suddenly sensed something was off. Su Ye seemed to be subtly trying to find out who she had eaten with.

He had developed a craving for himself.

He attempted to intrude into her life.

Shen Zhaoyi was all too familiar with this kind of tendency, because she had seen it in several other people as well.

If the topic is changed at this point, given Su Ye's sensitivity, she will definitely overthink it, so it's better to be open and honest.

"A friend came from Qing City and said he's going to participate in a competition next month. I was planning to invest some money in him, but we've already finished eating and he still hasn't said whether it's feasible or not." With a slightly complaining tone, he inadvertently revealed the answer he wanted to know.

Su Ye's expression visibly relaxed, naturally assuming that this was a business dinner.

After all, in his eyes, someone who can give millions in tips in one go must have a lot of business at home.

Shen Zhaoyi suddenly asked him, "What are your dreams?" (Wang Duoyu from Illusion)
"Or, how about opening a shop or something? I can invest."

These words were practically a direct invitation for me to pay, but Su Ye shook his head and refused.

"I don't have such lofty ambitions, nor do I have the extra energy. I just want to stick to this job for the rest of my life and do it well until I retire." He paused, then asked, "Don't you think that's a bit unambitious?"

"No." Shen Zhaoyi shook her head.

In her view, everyone has their own way of living, as long as they are comfortable.

If it weren't for the system being a variable, I might have worked a regular job my whole life.

It seems that simply trying to support entrepreneurship is not a viable option.

Then let's buy a house.

Su Ye is so gentle, she definitely won't refuse my kindness, right?
Moreover, in the previous video, the surrounding environment on his way home was that of an old-style residential area.

As the man I've set my sights on, his living conditions must be improved!

Just as I was about to ask him about his preference for room types, another video request popped up—

It's Mumu.

Su Ye, who had been watching her, noticed the subtle change in her expression and asked with concern, "What's wrong?"

"It's nothing, just a phone call."

"Then you answer it first."

After saying that, he hung up the video call without any hesitation.

Ah!
So sensible!
Shen Zhaoyi couldn't help but shout in her heart.

She suddenly understood why ancient emperors would be so pleased after sitting in a concubine's palace for a while, and bestow generous rewards upon her.

This is her mindset when facing Su Ye at this moment.

I couldn't help but want to give him something as a reward.

buy!
This house is a must-buy!
After keeping this in mind, Shen Zhaoyi swiped her finger to turn off the camera and then connected to Mu Mu's video call.

The moment the connection was established, that resentful, handsome face loomed in front of the camera, his fox-like eyes staring intently at her: "What's wrong, sister? Why did it take you so long to answer the phone? Could it be that you're hiding a man in the house?"

Shen Zhaoyi retorted with a smile, "Not yet, but I'll definitely tell you when I've hidden it."

Mumu clutched her chest, feigning heartbreak.

"My sister is so heartless, she can't even tell me a lie..."

"What's the point of being hypocritical?" Shen Zhaoyi softened her tone and asked, "Why are you calling so late?" Mu Mu pouted and said matter-of-factly, "I saw you left the live stream early, so I came here specifically to confront you."

"Oh?" Shen Zhaoyi was amused. "How will you interrogate me?"

"You're being punished to look at my new baby!"

Mu Mu's voice was filled with excitement, and she had just turned the camera around when Shen Zhaoyi stopped her.

You can tell what his stuff is without him even showing it to you.

It was indeed a punishment.

But it's the middle of the night, so it's not a good time.

Moreover, Su Ye is still waiting.

"Goodbye, whatever it is, we'll deal with it tomorrow. I have something to do, so I'll hang up now. Bye!"

Before Mu Mu could react, Shen Zhaoyi hung up and then breathed a sigh of relief.

If he gets on my mind, I'm sure I won't get a good night's sleep tonight.

After calming down, I made a voice call to Su Ye, and the first thing I said was to coax him to sleep.

Su Ye responded softly, adjusted the direction of the headphones, and gestured for her to go to bed and close her eyes.

On my phone, a message lay quietly in the notification bar.

Sister, I knew you were hiding a man!

The next morning, because Pei Yan was coming over that day, Shen Zhaoyi's brain started working early, and she woke up around eight o'clock.

Su Ye had just arrived at work when she saw her good morning reply.

So early today?

"Yes, we need to discuss what happened last night again."

【come on. 】

After a brief conversation, Shen Zhaoyi ignored Mu Mu's accusation and sent a message to Han Ziyang to ask about the progress of the competition.

As for Pei Yan, he probably hasn't woken up yet.

Xu Meng had already arrived outside and was tidying up the cage for the wealthy man.

When she saw Shen Zhaoyi come out, she glanced at the clock hanging on the living room wall with surprise.

"Zhaoyi, why are you up so early today?"

Everyone said the same thing, which made Shen Zhaoyi realize that her daily routine seemed a bit lazy.

She stretched and caught the little guy flying towards her steadily. While teasing him, she answered Xu Meng's question: "We're having guests coming later, so I'm getting up to tidy up."

To tidy up is to dress up.

Pei Yan did not agree to yesterday's proposal, and he will leave tomorrow.

I have to get him to agree today, no matter what.

Offering help in times of need repeatedly only makes the favor harder to repay.

Then we'll see what he has left to pull.

In front of the makeup mirror, Shen Zhaoyi carefully tidied herself up, and finally looked at herself in the mirror—

I'm so beautiful!

She smiled with satisfaction, casually letting her long hair fall down her back, the ends curling into a lazy arc.

Back in the living room, Xu Meng looked at her boss's attire and became even more certain that the man who had come must have a very close relationship with her.

At ten o'clock, my phone rang, and a message from Pei Yan popped up:

[I'm heading that way right away; it'll take about half an hour.]

Shen Zhaoyi replied: 【Okay, let me know when you arrive.】

Time passed by minute by minute.

She figured it was about time, so she got up, just as Pei Yan called.

"I've arrived. Where should I park the car for you?"

"Wait a moment, I'll be right out."
