Manwen raised his eyes, suppressed all the sour sleepiness, and patted him, "Come, take a shower."
"..."
Li Juexi didn't move or make a sound, and fell motionless in her arms.
Manwen lowered his head and saw that he had closed his eyes and had fallen asleep, with a somewhat silly smile on his lips...
In fact, it's not bad to be drunk all the time, at least he will have a smile.
Finally understood why when she first met him, his smile was always cold and never reached the depths of his eyes...
He hides too many worries.
"Li Juexi, even if the whole world treats you badly, I will treat you wholeheartedly." Pressing a kiss on his forehead, Manwen murmured, saying her promise, even though he couldn't hear it.
*************************
The next morning, the sun slowly fell into the window, and Manwen's hand reached to the side, only to find a blank space.
When she opened her eyes, she saw Li Juexi standing in front of the full-length mirror, adjusting his tie. He had a tall figure, straight legs, and no expression on his face. He was staring at the full-length mirror, fiddling with his tie.
Even though his prosthetic limbs have been improved, they still look a little stiff.
Manwen sat up from the bed and wanted to help him. Li Juexi had already tied his tie and turned to look at her with a hint of warmth in his eyes, "Are you awake?"
"Yeah." Manwen responded, "Are you going to the consortium so early?"
"There is a meeting this morning." Li Juexi said, reaching for the suit hanging aside, paused, and asked, "I was drunk again last night. Did it bother you that you didn't sleep well?"
"No. As usual, you sleep when you are drunk." It seemed that he had forgotten everything about last night.
"You can catch up on your sleep, I'm going out."
Li Juexi didn't say anything more, put on his suit and walked out.
Manwen quickly got out of bed and wanted to chase him out to ask him to stop drinking. Suddenly, his phone rang, and the English letters of "Sara" danced on the screen.
"Hello." Manwen had no choice but to answer the phone.
"Sister Man, I want to see you, I'm so scared..." Sara's worried voice came from the mobile phone.
"..."
Manwen was silent for a moment and then said, "Okay."
She reported a list of addresses, and she and Sara met there. It was the Seven Roads of Myton that Li Juexi had bought for their daughter.
…
Since being warned by Mr. Li in the hospital last time, Manwen and Sara have not seen each other again and only occasionally talked on the phone.
Sara is not an annoying girl, something must have happened to her being so uneasy now.
In order to avoid being followed by people sent by Mr. Li, Manwen specially asked Amy to go around again and again before arriving at the Seventh Path of Meton.
In front of the bright window, two women were sitting at an English-style round table. One was calm and calm, while the other was drinking water uneasily.
Manwen said nothing and pushed a plate of cake in front of her.
Sara took a few mouthfuls before putting it down. Her face looked a little pale. After a long time, she raised her head and looked helplessly at Manwen, "Sister Man, he decided to elope with me."
"What?"
Manwen was surprised.
The word "elope" has never appeared in her dictionary, which is really shocking.
"Old Li is really a terrible person. I don't understand why there are such terrible old people in this world..." Sara said excitedly, her eyes so red that she was about to cry, "I even compromised with Old Li last time. I said
I don’t want to enter Li’s house. I just want to be Richard’s woman. I just ask him to stop torturing me...” I was very drunk...
Manwen raised his eyes, suppressed all the sour sleepiness, and patted him, "Come, take a shower."
