    Shu Li listened to his words and put the red wine back into the gift bag and put it away, waiting to return it to Zhou Songran next week.

    Seeing him standing idly in the dining room, he asked, "Why did you come out after only a few minutes of sleep? Don't you want to take a rest?"

    Shu Li thought to himself, he still has a lot of work.

    Being a doctor is really busy, no wonder his mother was often away from home when he was young.

    After she finished eating the fruit, she took the plate into the kitchen, washed it and put it away.

    Zhao Jingchuan leaned against the dining table and asked for no reason: "Do you have anything else to do?"

    Shu Li didn't notice anything wrong, shook his head and said, "No."

    While talking, she covered her mouth and yawned, and walked to the bedroom, "I have nothing to do all afternoon, now I'm going to lie down and sleep for a while, I wake up too early in the morning, and I'm a little bit listless right now."

    Unexpectedly, just as she walked into the bedroom with her front foot, she tried to close the door lightly with her backhand, and Zhao Jingchuan followed her in with her back foot.

    Doubt flashed in Shu Li's clean pupils, "Are you going to sleep too?"

    "Um."

    He didn't say anything, walked to the position where he just lay down, lifted the quilt and lay down again, as if he just came out to drink a sip of water.

    Although Shu Li didn't understand why he did this, he thought to himself not to ask.

    Because she also wanted to take a quiet nap with Zhao Jingchuan and enjoy a leisurely weekend.

    Seeing that he was already lying on the bed and ready to fall asleep again, Shu Li also went to change into his pajamas, washed his face, and went to bed immediately.

    She was so tired that her eyes were sore and groggy. She didn't need to prepare at all. She closed her eyes and fell asleep within half a minute.

    Long and even breathing sounded in the quiet bedroom.

    Before Zhao Jingchuan fell asleep, he found that the person next to him had fallen asleep, and the next second he couldn't help but raise his eyes to look over.

    The girl's eyes were closed tightly, her eyelashes were drooping, thick and slender, and she could not hide her fatigue.

    But her skin is too white, when the light falls on her face, even the tiny fluff can be seen clearly, she is quiet, motionless, and looks very demure and well-behaved.

    Before going to bed, the alarm clock was not set, and the mobile phone was even in the state of silent do not disturb, so it was placed on the table next to the bed.

    Shu Li slept soundly, and didn't know that she had been called more than a dozen times.

    It was close to six o'clock in the evening, when the sun was setting in the city, Shu Li had enough sleep, rubbed his eyes and woke up from the bed in a daze, and half-opened his eyes to observe his surroundings.

    There was no one in the bedroom except her. The curtains were drawn tightly, and the door was closed tightly, so that no light could penetrate. She had no idea what time it was or how long she had slept.

    Shu Li stretched out his hand to find the phone with difficulty, only to realize that Qin Sangsang had called her more than a dozen times three hours ago.

    She didn't get a single call, it was all missed calls.

    At this time, the door was pushed open a small crack.

    The dazzling light came in from the outside, and she covered her eyes uncomfortably, unable to see who it was.

    Seeing her move, the person who pushed the door simply opened the door completely, walked in and pressed the switch, turned on the chandelier on the top, and then ran over enthusiastically and shouted: "Shu Li, you finally woke up! YouDo you know how long I have been waiting for you?"

    Shu Li had just adjusted to the light, when she saw a girl in tight jeans and a short coat approaching her and yelling at her, no different from the appearance she remembered seven years ago.

    She stared at Qin Sangsang who suddenly appeared, and said in surprise: "Why are you here? I have been sleeping and didn't receive your call. How did you come here? You don't even call me when you come!"

    Qin Sangsang's eyes had turned into a pair of crooked smiling eyes, and he complained with grievance: "You still have the nerve to say, do you know how many times I called you? You didn't answer..."

    "...I just found out now." Shu Li reluctantly held up the phone to show her, it happened to be an interface showing more than a dozen missed calls.

    She snorted: "I thought you were busy with something, and wondered if I would come to see you tomorrow. Fortunately, I found my little uncle again. He said that you were sleeping in the room, and he almost pissed me off, you know!"

    Shu Li was also very wronged: "I turned on Do Not Disturb in class in the morning, but I forgot to turn it off, so I don't know. How long have you been here?"

    "I've been here for more than an hour, and I've been watching TV in the living room. It's very boring." Qin Sangsang sighed and said, "I wanted to call you out to accompany me, but now you have a husband.Now, this husband is still someone I dare not mess with. He forbids me to call you, and I have no choice but to wait for you to wake up. Are you a pig? After sleeping for so long..."

    "You are the pig! It's not too late to wake up, I will accompany you to relieve boredom." After speaking, Shu Li really lifted the quilt and got out of bed.

    But before she got up and took two steps, Qin Sangsang caught a glimpse of a light bruise on the inner side of her knee, half-covered under the hem of her nightgown, which was very ambiguous.

    Shu Li's skin is fair, which makes it even more obvious.

    It's hard not to notice.

    Qin Sangsang often went in and out of various bars, and she could understand at a glance. Staring at the bruise on her knee, she frowned and clicked several times: "You...you..."

    Shu Li met her ambiguous gaze and asked incomprehensibly, "What's wrong? Is there any problem?"

    She accidentally touched it in the living room in the morning. The height of her knees and the corners of the coffee table is the same. Sometimes the sofa and the coffee table are too close to each other, and it is easy to touch them when they get up.

    She didn't understand why Qin Sangsang had such an expression, as if she had done something shady.

    Qin Sangsang was about to say that Zhao Jingchuan didn't care much when he did that kind of thing, at least find something to cushion it.

    Shu Li thought she was just caring about her, and explained to her: "There is no way, I have been prone to physical fitness since I was a child, and bruises will appear if I touch it lightly. Sometimes it will happen if I don't pay attention, it's okay, after a few daysI'll be fine." As she said that, she reached out and pressed the bruised area, and found some slight pain.

    Qin Sangsang raised her eyes, only to realize that it didn't seem to be the case, her thoughts were too dirty: "We don't seem to be talking about the same thing?"

    "Then what are you talking about?" Shu Li asked sincerely.

    Qin Sangsang was stunned. She didn't expect Shu Li to be so pure that she didn't even understand the meaning of her words. People couldn't bear to defile her, and they were afraid that Zhao Jingchuan would scold her for teaching her badly.

    She had no choice but to say, "You can experience it yourself. Or, ask your husband, he must know."

    Shu Li squinted at her: "Huh?"

    Fine.

    Shu Li went to the bathroom and washed his face by the way. When he walked out of the bedroom slowly, Zhao Jingchuan just came back from the outside.

    He was carrying a bag of things in his hand, which looked like cold dishes packed back, changed his shoes at the entrance, came over and asked Qin Sangsang, "Is it hot?"

    "It's hot." Qin Sangsang raised her eyebrows, motioning him to look at the dining table, "Here."

    Shu Li also looked over and saw that the table was covered with all kinds of cooked food, such as roast chicken and goose. He walked over and asked casually, "Who bought it? Buy so much?"

    Qin Sangsang raised her hand to invite credit: "Me. Come to my little uncle's house as a guest, and take a look at my good sister by the way, shouldn't I bring something?"

    Zhao Jingchuan put the freshly bought cold dishes on the table, then took out a bottle of red wine from somewhere, and easily pried open the cork with a tool.

    It's not the bottle that Zhou Songran sent in the morning, the one in his hand seems to be more expensive.

    From this posture, it seems that the three of them are going to have a big meal at home together.

    Shu Li, who just woke up, was a little dazed, and immediately thought of going to the kitchen to get a wine glass, but Qin Sangsang grabbed it first.

    She had no choice but to do nothing, just sit on the chair and wait for the meal obediently.

    Qin Sangsang put the clean and washed wine glasses on the table, Zhao Jingchuan poured some into them one by one, he and Qin Sangsang poured more glasses, Shu Li's was half of theirs.

    Before eating, Qin Sangsang took a sip greedily and sighed: "This wine is really good. It doesn't look cheap. Where did you get it?"

    Zhao Jingchuan glanced at her, and also glanced at Shu Li, who was taking a sip, and said with lowered eyes, "I asked a friend to bring back the Cabernet Sauvignon from California a long time ago."

    "Oh my god!" Qin Sangsang opened her mouth wide in surprise, "You are so willing, you are so good! My little uncle, you are worthy of being you, and you will welcome me with your treasure worth a house as soon as I come!"

    Shu Li didn't know what Cabernet Sauvignon was, but when she heard the word "a suite", her hand holding the wine glass trembled, and suddenly she didn't dare to drink.

    I also remembered the sentence he said at noon, "There are a lot of this kind of red wine at home, so you can take it if you want to drink it", and now I finally understand how strong the confidence behind this sentence is.

    Facing Qin Sangsang's excited appearance, Zhao Jingchuan retorted abruptly: "Be less narcissistic, it has nothing to do with you."

    After Qin Sangsang got excited, she recognized the reality, and snorted: "All right, all right, because I know who, I know, don't show your affection in front of me! I don't care, if you rub it, you'll make it, and if you make it, I can't do it."happy?"

    Shu Li looked up at the two of them, very self-aware that this should not have much to do with her.

    She has lived with him for so long, and he hasn't brought it out. How could it have anything to do with her.

    Probably Zhao Jingchuan was just too embarrassed to admit it.

    Or, just perform a show of affection with Qin Sangsang in front of her.

    Qin Sangsang, who had been stuffed with dog food, ate angrily, making Shu Li strangely embarrassed.

    They ate and chatted, and it was Shu Li and Qin Sangsang who were talking more. Qin Sangsang kept asking her and telling her what had happened in the years when they hadn't seen each other.

    The two chatted endlessly for a long time, briefly recounting the past few years of losing contact with each other in words.

    On the way, Qin Sangsang leaned close to her ear, deliberately not letting Zhao Jingchuan hear, and asked in a low voice, "How will my little uncle treat you after he gets married?"

    Shu Li curled his lips into a smile, and cleverly didn't understand what he said: "What do you think? You've been here for a few hours, so you can feel it yourself."

    Good or bad, in fact, it is not clear in one sentence.

    Qin Sangsang couldn't say anything bad, growing up with Zhao Jingchuan, she knew her little uncle was a man, and he was very reliable as a husband, but she still felt that the relationship between them was not that strong.

    People who really like each other and are still in the period of passionate love seem to have a magnetic field of attraction, and they can't wait to stick to each other all the time. They don't feel this way at all.

    Qin Sangsang could only say: "Okay, as long as you are happy. But if you have any grievances, you must tell me immediately, and I will support you."

    "Got it." Shu Li laughed at her, "What can you support?"

    The night was getting dark, because it was too late, Shu Li asked Zhao Jingchuan to send Qin Sangsang back, but she didn't come out with her.

    Suddenly, only their uncle and nephew were left to get along again.

    Zhao Jingchuan couldn't drive her himself after drinking, so he called a car for her. While waiting for the car, Qin Sangsang stared at his feet and asked worriedly, "Uncle, do you really like Shu Li?"

    For Zhao Jingchuan, neither "like" nor "love" are words that can be spoken casually.

    He never told any woman except his family.

    When asked this question, I thought he would be quite repulsive to respond, but when he didn't want to say it, the tone was so natural that even he was surprised.

    He looked directly at the road, and responded: "I don't like it, why should I marry her?"

    Qin Sangsang expressed her inner thoughts: "I think your marriage is too hasty and child's play, and I can't feel how passionate you are in love. The relationship is so strong that you want to get married quickly. Now it looks like nothing, I was afraidAfter a few years, you regret it. At that time, one will be my uncle and the other will be my good friend, so I will be very embarrassed, okay?"

    Zhao Jingchuan didn't tell her the truth, and said rationally, "Everyone's way of getting along is different, and what you see may not be everything."

    "Okay." Qin Sangsang compromised, "But you have to be nice to Shu Li, don't be like other stinky men, or I will definitely settle accounts with you."

    It was difficult to call a car at this time, and it took a long time before someone arrived to take the order, and it was a female driver.

    Zhao Jingchuan relievedly helped her open the car door and let her go in, and said indifferently: "Go, say hello to your mother for me. It's not your business to worry about me and Shu Li."

    After Qin Sangsang left, Zhao Jingchuan turned back and went upstairs.

    It was just after ten o'clock when he got home, Shu Li had already taken a shower, and was sitting on the bed with his ipad, watching the drama leisurely.

    He asked with concern: "Are you so free tonight?"

    "Yeah." She didn't look at him, she was still focused on her TV series, and asked in a low voice, "Is your little niece sent back safely?"

    Zhao Jingchuan took a sip of water and didn't speak. After a while, he took his clothes and prepared to go into the bathroom to take a shower. Before going in, he said, "Can I still lose her?"

    Shu Li Mie glanced at his back, and said in a low voice, "I'll just ask casually."

    Zhao Jingchuan took a bath neither fast nor slow, and he came out of it in less than fifteen minutes.

    Now that the weather is getting colder and colder, in order to make sleeping more comfortable, the indoor heating was turned on, and he still walked out with no shirt on and wet hair as before, his abdominal muscles were exposed to the air, which was very eye-catching.

    Shu Li looked at him, he was used to it, and he didn't feel ashamed.

    She put down her ipad and abandoned this boring new drama. Thinking of a conversation with Qin Sangsang when she got up in the evening, she rolled her eyes, bent her knees, pointed at the bruise on it, and asked Zhao Jingchuan a question:"Why was Qin Sangsang so surprised when he saw the bruise on my leg, and also showed a strange expression?"

    Shu Li didn't know how to describe her expression at that time.

    I only know that it is very ambiguous.

    "Bruises?" Zhao Jingchuan lowered his head and looked at where her finger was pointing at. He was obviously stunned for a moment, and his voice hesitated for a moment, "You... really don't know?"

    "I don't know." Do you need to ask him if you know?

    Shu Li said again, "She said you know."

    There was a trace of helplessness in Zhao Jingchuan's eyes, and he asked again cautiously: "Do you really want to know?"

    Shu Li looked puzzled, raised his eyes and cast a look at him, as if saying: What is it that I can't know?

    It made her even more curious!

    "Say it!"

    The bedroom suddenly fell silent.

    Neither of them spoke, and there was an unreasonable silence for a while.

    Zhao Jingchuan exchanged glances with her, and after a silence, he called her slowly: "Okay, come here, I'll tell you."
