Chapter 54 Lips are slightly cool and unexpectedly soft
Lian Li was sick and fell asleep easily. She leaned her head on the back of the chair and fell asleep soon after.
The car sped along, driving smoothly, with the bustling and dazzling city center behind it. The private road was vast and vast, with few vehicles coming and going.
He opened his eyes nervously, and what he saw was the quiet and deep pine forest outside the car window.
She blinked slowly, her black and white eyes turning, and her vision gradually changed from blurry to clear.
The water and soil in the United States are abundant and fertile, seemingly inexhaustible, nourishing tall and indulgent woods.
Surrounded by dark green bushes and blue lakes inlaid with snow-white water, the environment is extremely quiet and deep. In front of it stands a magnificent European-style building that looks like a private castle... Are they at the manor?
Cullinan walked through the lush garden and slowly stopped in front of the villa. Lian Li stared blankly at Jin Shiyue beside him.
The man's dark shirt hangs on his body, and the simple lines outline his tall and strong figure. The light and shadow intersect on the bridge of his nose, reflecting the three-dimensional outline of his bones.
The main building is tall in the middle of the manor villa, and the annex buildings are slightly shorter on both sides. Lian Li got off the car without looking too much and quietly followed Jin Shiyue.
Although he was unpredictable, she felt that he could still be trusted in this extremely strange place.
The middle-aged housekeeper came over with a blond-haired middle-aged woman and respectfully greeted Jin Shiyue. Then the middle-aged woman came over and asked Lian Li to follow her.
Lian Li looked at Jin Shiyue.
Jin Shiyue looked at her with dark eyes: "What, you want me to serve you personally?"
"...No."
Lian Li was unwell, and he, a grown man, could take care of her, but the difference between men and women was ultimately inconvenient, and she was not used to being alone with him.
With other people of the same sex around, Lian Li felt much more relaxed. She and the middle-aged woman went to the room in the main building, with the maid carrying her suitcase behind.
The middle-aged woman's name was Ruth, and she was a couple with the housekeeper. She was kind and kind. When she entered the door, she asked Lian Li to lie down and rest, and then asked her carefully about her eating habits and precautions.
Lian Li told her everything she could think of.
After Ruth left, Lian Li took out her mobile phone from her bag and found that there were two missed calls from Jin Yanting on her mobile phone.
She was in a state of confusion last night and didn't send him a message.
Lian Li felt bad and quickly opened WeChat to edit a message to report that he was safe.
He might be busy at this time and it's inconvenient to make a phone call... or he might be with Duan Shiqing.
Surprisingly, as soon as she finished sending the message, Jin Yanting's call came.
"Xiao Li." His voice was a little hoarse, and he wondered if he was also sick.
Lian Li coughed twice, cleared her throat and said, "Brother, I forgot to tell you when I went to bed last night. Everything is safe here, nothing happened."
The background on Jin Yanting's side was slightly noisy, but his voice still came out clearly from the receiver: "As long as it's safe."
"Are you feeling..." Uncomfortable.
Lian Li had just finished speaking when Duan Shiqing's worried voice came from the other end of the phone: "Yanting, take your cold medicine first. If you really feel unwell, the international summit..."
She didn't even hear what was behind her, so she pursed her lips and said, "Brother, I'll hang up first."
The people around Jin Yanting have a close relationship with him, and they are more suitable and have more status to care about him than she is.
Lian Li hung up the phone, calmed down her mood, and opened WeChat to reply to the message.
Xue Shufan: "It's a good thing you didn't come to ride a horse. I was so angry that I met that dog named Zhao!"
Xue Shufan: "The gang he led also said openly and secretly that I was too barbaric. If I hadn't taken care of others, I would have rushed up to fight with them!"
Xue Shufan: "It's like a toad pretending to be a frog, an ugly flower."
That bitch named Zhao refers to Zhao Lizheng.
Lian Li: "It's a pity that I'm not here, otherwise I would definitely hand you the knife."
Lian Li: "If they don't like it, what does it have to do with us? It seems that being liked by them can sublimate life. Don't be angry or not, if you have the time, why not do more experiments."
Just after the delivery was successful, Ruth came in with a family doctor.
Lian Li obediently asked her to check herself. Her fever was basically gone, but her body temperature was still a little high. She would be fine after a day or two of rest.
So, Lian Li spent the next two days very pleasantly. Seeing that she was sick, Jin Shi stopped entertaining her and became less venomous. After lunch, Lian Li took a walk in the garden and basked in the sun. She walked on the curved bridge and looked at the two luxury yachts on the lake. Then she lowered her head and looked at the lake with ice floes floating in front of her, like a broken mirror.
The quiet manor, the clear lake water, the sound of wind floating in the ears mixed with the chirping of deer...
In the main building of the villa not far away, Jin Shiyue stood on the balcony, his eyes passing by the croaking deer and falling on the thin figure on the large platform at the end of the bridge.
Lian Li was sitting at the end of the bridge, her legs dangling in the air, swaying slightly. She raised her face, and the fragments of sunlight shone on her face, which was particularly bright and dazzling.
Ruth pushed a bicycle out of the house, smiled and said to Lian Li: "This classic bicycle has not been ridden for a long time. William has checked that there is no problem. You can give it a try."
Lian Li twisted the handle and tested whether the brake and chain were malfunctioning.
“Very responsive.”
She rode her bicycle with a bright smile: "I'll take a walk around the manor, you go and do your work."
Ruth smiled.
Lian Li rides a bicycle,
The wheels spun rapidly and buzzed.

The car drove her through the forest, and the breeze blew her long hair, rising and falling again.
The manor is very large, including an entire lush pine forest. Lian Li has just recovered from his illness. In the open forest, breathing the fresh air, he feels very comfortable.
While driving on a steep slope, she suddenly became playful, let go of the handlebars, spread her arms like a bird spreading its wings, and swooped down.
The cold wind in the forest blew on my face, giving rise to a painful and pleasant feeling.
Lian Li couldn't help shouting, and her clear and bright voice was picked up by the wind and floated to the sky.
The nightingale fell in love with the king, forgot that she was a little bird, flew to his window and sang human love songs all night long. However, one day it will remember that it is a little bird and return to the forests and fields.
This is a journey worth remembering. Lian Li slowly rode her bicycle back to the villa, thinking silently in her heart.
Even though there were many difficulties and frustrations, she solved the knot in her heart.
As for Jin Shiyue, he seemed different from what she had learned before and what others had described.
Lian Li handed the bicycle to the servant and walked to the villa.
Ruth saw her and came over to ask her if she had a pleasant ride and if she encountered anything interesting, and she shared it with her concisely and clearly.
Finally, Ruth said: "Mr. Jin is upstairs in the study. It's dinner time. Can you help call him down?"
Lian Li got along well with Ruth. In the past two days, she occasionally called Jin Shiyue for her, so she agreed: "No problem."
According to Lian Li's observation, Ruth was probably afraid of Jin Shiyue, especially Jin Shiyue who was impatient because he hadn't slept well.
Lian Li walked up the stairs. The study door was open. She stood at the door and knocked lightly. There was no sound for a long time.
The study room is huge, and the lights are not fully turned on, making it a bit dark and gloomy. Lian Li searched for a while before she saw the man lying on the sofa with his eyes covered with the back of his hands.
The sofa was not too small, but Jin Shiyue was of extremely superior stature and could not fit his long legs, which were casually folded on the armrests of the sofa.
The God of Wealth was lying on the carpet next to the sofa, his ears drooped, lazily. Not like a ferocious Tibetan mastiff, like a sleepy lion.
Lian Li walked over cautiously. She also called Jin Shiyue yesterday, so she continued as usual today, stretching out an index finger to gently poke the back of his hand.
"Knowing more..."
Before she could even say the word 'brother', Jin Shiyue suddenly grabbed her right wrist with his backhand, as if on conditioned reflex.
Lian Li was caught off guard, her center of gravity suddenly lost balance, and she was driven by his strength and threw herself into his arms.
The situation was urgent, so she pressed her left hand on the edge of the sofa to support herself as much as possible, but Lian Li still clearly felt something unusual touching her lips.
The tip of the man's nose brushed against hers, and the intertwined breaths were hot and moist.
His lips were slightly cool and unexpectedly soft.
