Chapter 368 Well, long time no see
Until the end of the meal, Leng Youran didn't hear a single word from Li Shuai.
On the way back, the Third Prince was already a little drunk and was supported by Li Shuai as he walked in front.
Li Tianze didn't drink much because Leng Youran was pregnant, and the two of them followed behind them.
He noticed that Leng Youran's expression was not right since they started eating, especially the dish that Li Shuai picked for "him". Leng Youran seemed to be eating it with relish.
"Youyou, you've eaten that dish before, right?" Even though I felt a little uncomfortable, I still asked.
Leng Youran nodded in response, "Yes, I have, a long time ago." Although she ate it later, she could no longer tell what it tasted like at that time.
"Li Shuai is also your old friend, right?" Li Tianze knew that the dish was not available here.
She had eaten must have been in what she called modern times.
modern....
Is Li Shuai from there too?
He secretly clenched his fists, indignant in his heart: What on earth is wrong with this world? Why is it like a bottomless pit, with an outsider jumping out from time to time?
And that Li Shuai...
Who is he and why does he know his wife so well?
He had a lot of questions he wanted to ask, but he didn't know how to ask them.
Leng Youran didn't want to tell him, but she herself had no idea.
She still doesn't know whether Li Shuai is her old friend.
"I'm not sure. I don't remember him."
She is now even more confused than Li Tianze.
Who is Li Shuai and why does he know that she likes that dish?
Having someone who understands her well by her side, and not knowing whether he is a friend or an enemy, she feels uneasy no matter how she thinks about it.
"Tianze, I want to go check on Li Shuai tonight."
The two men walked very slowly. They were still in the market, and Li Shuai and the others had disappeared, so Li Shuai would not know about their conversation.
"Okay, I'll go with you then."
Leng Youran wanted to refuse, but when she thought of his outrageous behavior today, she swallowed her refusal hard.
Seeing how petty he was, it was probably useless for her to refuse.
The quiet night was broken by a knock on the door.
"Who?"
Li Shuai's voice came from inside the house
"I, Leng Youran, wonder if Magistrate Li has gone to bed yet. Would it be convenient for us to chat?"
Li Shuai, who had just climbed onto the bed, heard Leng Youran's voice and got up from the bed without thinking.
Just as I was about to open the door, I thought of my clothes and said, "Okay, wait a moment."
She quickly put on her clothes, without even having time to tie up her hair, and opened the door.
When he saw that Leng Youran was not the only one at the door, his expression changed.
Immediately, he put on a smile and said, "Master Li, haven't you rested yet?"
"It's inconvenient for my lady to come alone."
Li Shuai curled the corner of his mouth and thought to himself: It would be inconvenient for you to come over!
But he said, "Mr. Li is right. Please come in." He stepped aside to let the two people in, then quickly walked to the table, picked up a ribbon, and tied his hair up high.
"You two should sit down."
Leng Youran sat down and looked around his room. It was no different from the yard they were in, except that there was a new set of bedding on the bed.
Of course, the bedding in their room was replaced with new ones in the afternoon.
"You two came here so late, I guess you didn't just want to see my house, right?" Li Shuai sat down and poured two cups of tea for them. Seeing that their eyes were fixed on the decoration of his house, he asked.
Leng Youran and Li Tianze withdrew their gazes and looked at each other. Then Leng Youran asked, "Where is the specialty of dry pot duck head?"
Li Shuai said without thinking: "Hebei Shi..." He didn't even finish the last two words before he realized that he had been careless.
It was exposed so quickly.
"Are you really?" Leng Youran stood up excitedly and looked at her in astonishment.
She moved so loudly that even the stool she was sitting on was knocked over to the ground when she stepped back.
Li Shuai held his forehead and said, "Don't be impatient, sit down first."
Li Tianze lifted up her round stool and moved his own stool under her butt.
Li Shuai just watched, with indescribable emotions spreading in his eyes.
"Mr. Li is quite considerate." He didn't even realize that there was a hint of sourness in his words.
Li Tianze seemed not to notice the difference in his tone, and smiled, "It's natural to pamper your own wife."
Li Shuai smiled, but his tone was somewhat provocative, "I hope you can always be like this."
"Of course." Li Tianze's tone became a little firmer.
"Who are you?" Leng Youran didn't have time to care about the secret rivalry between the two people, he just wanted to know the answer to the doubts in his heart.
"Li Shuai." Li Shuai replied.
"But I don't know you, how do you know me..." I like to eat dry pot duck head.
Li Shuai placed his hands on the round table and stretched his head forward. "Take another good look."
Leng Youran half-closed her eyes and looked at his face, but she didn't notice any similarities between Li Shuai and the people she knew.
He shook his head, "I'm sure I don't know you."
Li Shuai didn't say anything, but made a gesture.
Leng Youran's eyes widened and her hands trembled. If Li Tianze hadn't held her down, she would have stood up again in excitement.
"Teach, professor?" Her tone was full of uncertainty.
Li Shuai just made the action of pushing her fingers upwards from the tip of her nose. She was familiar with this action. She would do this every time the professor came to see her.
Of course, he might not have wanted to do it at that time, but he was wearing glasses, and if he didn't push them up, they would fall off.
"Well, Youran, long time no see." Li Shuai stood up and stretched out his hand.
Leng Youran also stood up, but before he could stretch out his hand, Li Tianze's big palm had already been clasped with Li Shuai's.
Li Shuai......
Leng Youran......
"Ahem, well, my husband is just like that, don't mind it, Professor."
Li Shuai smiled awkwardly and said, "Well, I don't mind." He just exerted a little force on his hands, as if he wanted to compete with Li Tianze.
Li Tianze was not willing to be outdone, and he unconsciously began to grip him harder.
Leng Youran felt that the air around her had become a little colder, and she couldn't help but pull her cloak closer.
Li Tianze seemed to have sensed it and was the first to release the force.
Seeing this, Li Shuai withdrew his hand, put it behind his back and clenched it tightly.
Li Tianze didn't care about his numb hands, and nervously took off his cloak and put it on Leng Youran.
"If I had known I would have brought an extra layer, are you cold? Why don't we go back first?"
Leng Youran held his hand, took the cloak off her and put it back on him. "I'm fine, I just felt a bit of a cold wind blowing in just now."
Cold Wind Li Shuai....
Leng Feng Li Tianze......
"Ahem, sorry, I was inconsiderate. I'll have someone prepare a charcoal brazier right away." He didn't like heat, so he was not used to using a charcoal brazier even in the cold winter.
