Li Huzhu was busy for a long time. After lunch, she hurried back to the small building to rest.
The drawings for the back garden have been shown to my father, but the details still need to be worked on. For example, how to use the land between the second mansion and the tennis court?
Should we build a corridor or plant trees?
She was sitting in the small living room, revising the drawings at hand; and in the afternoon she had an account for project funds that she had to check with the manager.
Li Huzhu called the maid: "Make me a cup of coffee."
The maid said yes.
The coffee was brought to her. After drinking it, she still felt a little bit tired and rubbed her brows.
The maid advised her: "Miss, you should sleep for a while. If you work so hard, you will develop tuberculosis."
Tuberculosis was the most serious disease in the past, with a high fatality rate and it was easy to contract.
When advising people to take care of themselves, they use this matter as their excuse.
Li Huzhu smiled: "I'm too lazy to go to bed, so I'll just sit here and relax for a while."
The maid took out a blanket from the bottom of the cabinet next to her and covered Li Huzhu.
Sure enough, she leaned on the sofa and took a nap.
On the afternoon of early February, the sun shone in through the window, filling the room with warmth, and the thin blanket was enough to resist the coolness in the room.
She fell asleep after a while.
A cup of coffee was not enough to ward off her drowsiness. She was really tired.
She was so busy these days that she didn't get much sleep. Fatigue and sleepiness hit her together.
Li Jing slept from morning to afternoon. After getting up, she went downstairs and asked the maid: "Where has the lady gone?"
The maid told him: "Still in the small living room upstairs.
She said she should take a nap, and she had already slept for an hour."
Li Jing quickly turned back upstairs.
The maid came in again later, closed the curtains for Li Huzhu, and added a thick blanket to her body.
Li Huzhu was lying on the sofa, sleeping soundly.
Her red lips were slightly open, her breathing was light and even, and she was sleeping unconsciously.
Li Jing's eyes lingered on her face as if on fire.
She has slender eyebrows, closed eyes, and full lips.
The blanket covers her chest, her snowy neck, and her curves contain an intoxicating charm.
His eyes gradually darkened, and there was suppressed heat in his dark pupils, and his hands trembled inexplicably.
He couldn't help but squat down in front of the sofa next to her, and gently stroked her hair with his fingers.
Then her forehead, down, the bridge of her nose, her lips...
Li Jing leaned over and placed a kiss on her forehead, pious and sincere. When she was about to stand up, she felt like she was being pulled back by something, and kissed her on the cheek.
She seemed to feel something, and moved slightly, her breath coming to the side of Li Jing's face.
There was a misty mist in Li Jing's eyes, covering up all reason, and he moved closer to her lips.
At the same time, there was a crisp sound behind him.
He turned back suddenly.
Mrs. Li stood at the door, looking shocked, and looked at Li Jing with her eyes wide open.
His heart skipped a beat, but he felt as happy as breaking a jar.
In the eyes of a madman, secrets only cause him pain, and he is not afraid of any criticism.
Mrs. Li: "...Ah Jing, it's you! I thought I was robbed!"
She was in shock.
Li Jing: "..."
It turned out that I didn't see him clearly.
He felt inexplicably disappointed.
Mrs. Li turned on the light and called the maid to come over and clean up the broken porcelain.
Li Huzhu slept very comfortably. First, she was disturbed by the sound of throwing bowls, and then suddenly the lights turned on, and she woke up.
Rubbing her sleepy eyes, she looked at the people in the room in confusion: "What happened?"
Why are your brother and mother here?
Mrs. Li smiled and said: "I made bird's nests over there. I heard that you have been working very hard these days, and your father also praised you for your hard work, so I wanted to give you some supplements."
At this time, it’s time to have afternoon tea.
"It's a pity that they were all smashed."
Li Huzhu laughed.
Mrs. Li: "I still have some at my place, why don't I bring some more...forget it, wash your face and go to my place to eat.
