Chapter 181 Qi Yihan Said, “I Told Father You Slept Late Last Night
Because Tang Li slept too late last night, when she woke up the next morning, it was already past eight o’clock. When she came out of the bedroom, she happened to bump into Qi Yihan, who was coming up from downstairs. Qi Yihan went up to the study room to get some documents. The moment he saw her, his dark eyes started to size her up. Tang Li stopped and glared at him. “What are you looking at?”
She was no longer shy. However, her hands were still a little numb now. She was angry at him for asking her to use her hand for so long.
If she did it a few more times, her hand would be crippled.
Qi Yihan laughed at her angry reaction. As his lips curled, Tang Li was instantly infatuated by his handsome face.
Qi Yihan walked up to her and tapped her neck with his finger. He said very matter-of-factly, “There is still a mark here.”
Tang Li’s face turned all red again. Because she slept in this morning, she didn’t have time to check herself in the mirror. She had no idea that there was a kiss mark he left on her neck.
Tang Li touched it with her finger and, as a golden light flashed, the mark disappeared.
Qi Yihan looked disappointed, regretful for telling her about it.
After Tang Li got rid of the mark, she raised her eyebrows at him proudly. “Not anymore.”
Qi Yihan nodded and raised his hand to touch her head.
Tang Li was now a little sensitive to his hand. It was this hand that had been pressing on hers the entire night.
So when his hand reached over, her body flashed to the side. While dodging him, she quickly walked towards the corridor and said as she walked, “I’m hungry. I’m going to eat breakfast.”
Qi Yihan retracted his hand after a long while. He turned around and looked at the departing figure that quickly disappeared from the staircase, his smile widening. He suddenly found her irresistibly cute.
It seemed like he had to make her do what she did last night a few more times so that she could get used to it and wouldn’t be shy when that day really came.
Tang Li did not know what Qi Yihan was thinking. The moment she got downstairs, a few pairs of eyes looked at her.
Other than Secretary Si, the other managers looked surprised.
Madam was actually living with the CEO. Most importantly, Madam woke up so late!
Didn’t the CEO loathe Madam?
However, the managers were all calm people. They quickly stood up and greeted Tang Li, “Morning, Madam.”
Tang Li did not expect so many people to come today. As she continued down the stairs, she nodded at them.
At that moment, Butler Zhang, who heard Tang Li, dashed in and said, “Madam, good morning. I’ll bring you breakfast immediately.”
With that, he left.
Tang Li walked down and sat down at the dining table. Though on the surface, the managers looked calm, focusing on their work, but deep down, they were thrilled, going crazy in the group chat.. Manager A: “Madam lives with the CEO!” Manager B: “Doesn’t the CEO loathe Madam?”
Manager C: “Maybe they don’t live in the same room.”
Manager D: “Still very surprised!”
Secretary Si: “Let me give you guys a piece of advice. It’s best not to talk about the president and his wife in private.”
Manager, ABCD, looked at the calm Secretary Si at the same time and closed the chat window to continue working.
At this moment, Secretary Si raised his eyes and glanced at Tang Li, who was spaced out with her chin resting on one of her hands, wondering if he should talk to her.
Last night, he got into a small car accident when he returned home. Although he was fine, his beloved car had already been scrapped. It pained him and made him believe what Tang Li told him.
At that moment, Tang Li suddenly looked at him.
Tang Li looked at Secretary Si with a smile that seemed to be saying, “I know what exactly is going inside that little head of yours.”
Secretary Si was struck dumb.
At that moment, Tang Li asked in the tone of a boss who was concerned about her employee, “Secretary Si, have you found a girlfriend yet?”
Before Secretary Si could react, the rest of the people reacted strongly, turning to Tang Li at the same time.
What did Madam mean by this? Was she actually concerned about Secretary Si’s personal matters?
Secretary Si pushed his glasses up the bridge of his nose and replied expressionlessly, “Not
yet.”
At that moment, Qi Yihan came down with a document. Hearing the question from Tang Li, he glanced at Secretary Si as well.
Then, he turned his gaze to Tang Li.
Tang Li knew that he had come down and deliberately did not look at him.
Qi Yihan’s lips curled up. He went downstairs and walked straight to her.
The few managers looked at their president in a daze.
Under Tang Li’s vigilant eyes, Qi Yihan walked up to her and suddenly leaned toward her. After tucking a strand of hair behind her ear, he stood up and said to her, “Father asked about you this morning.”
Tang Li was goggling at him, wondering what he said to his father.
Qi Yihan looked at her and his lips curled up. “I told Father that you slept late last night.”
With that, he left. Tang Li glared at his back and, for some reason, was scared to see her father-in-law now.
At this moment, Butler Zhang brought in the breakfast.
During the breakfast, Tang Li was distracted by what Qi Yihan could’ve told his father.
The managers who were working there were also a little distracted.
They had no clue whatsoever as to why their CEO and his wife were so loving in private, because it was rumored that they loathed each other.
Secretary Si threw a look at the managers and suddenly felt superior as he knew what they didn’t
After Tang Li finished her breakfast, she went to see his father-in-law.
When the old man saw Tang Li, there was a smile in his eyes. He nodded and said, “Good, great, terrific.”
Tang Li didn’t know what to say to that.
So what did Qi Yihan say to him?
Tang Li quickly changed the subject and told him about Augustine.
The old man obviously knew what happened. He said, “So be it. I believe in Li more than anyone else.”
Tang Li nodded. “Yes. Once all the herbs are collected, I’ll start the treatment immediately, and very likely by the middle of next month, we’ll be able to go back home.”
“Good, good, good.”
After chichatting with her father-in-law for a while, Tang Li went to discuss the treatment plan with Doctor Xiang and Mr. Yun.
At around 10 am, Qi Yihan suddenly came to look for Tang Li.
Qi Yihan said to her, “President Zhang called
you.”
President Zhang wanted to call Tang Li directly, but he could not get through to her, so he called Qi Yihan instead.
Only then did Tang Li follow Qi Yihan out.
Qi Yihan knew that Tang Li went out to see Madam Zhang yesterday, so he was not surprised when President Zhang called. He only asked Tang Li, “Do you need me to go with
you?”
“No. I’ll be back soon.”
Thinking of the money that was about to be in her pocket, she smiled and said to Qi Yihan, “When I get my money, I’ll treat you to a meal.”
Qi Yihan smiled. “Deal.”
