Are you suggesting I inherit three wives' households? I'll marry my eldest brother and bec

Chapter 283 Second Brother, you look so alluring!

Grandma Shen looked at the harmonious family, and the wrinkles at the corners of her eyes smoothed out, filling her heart with sweetness.

Grandpa Yu sat next to Grandma Shen, his eyes fixed on her, constantly putting food into her bowl, saying gently, "This is your favorite, try it."

Grandma Shen nodded obediently, ate in small bites, and softly replied, "Mmm."

Life is really good now.

Right now, there are only six people eating at home, and it's only on weekends that it gets more lively.

After the meal, everyone sat together for a while, drank tea, chatted about everyday things, and then returned to their own courtyards.

As soon as I got back to my room, the phone rang.

Shen Li walked over and answered, "Feed?"

"Lili..." Lan Wei's familiar voice came from the other end of the phone, tinged with worry.

"Weiwei?" Shen Li smiled, her tone light and cheerful. "What's wrong?"

"Why didn't you go to school when the semester started?" Lan Wei's voice was full of anxiety.

"It's nothing, it's nothing," Shen Li quickly reassured her. "I just have some personal matters to take care of. I took over a factory and there's a lot of handover work to do, so I asked the school for a month's leave."

"Oh, I see. It's good that you're alright. I thought something had happened to you. Mr. Shen's business is growing bigger and bigger. What should I do? I haven't graduated yet and can't serve Mr. Shen." Lan Wei breathed a sigh of relief, her tone becoming much lighter.

"It's my fault for not telling you beforehand, I'm sorry for making you worry. Don't worry, I've always kept that position in my legal department for you, it's definitely for you." Shen Li said apologetically, "If you're free this weekend, you can come visit me."

"Okay! I'll go over this weekend!" Lanwei happily agreed.

After hanging up the phone, Shen Li turned around and saw that Lu Cheng had changed into a loose set of home clothes and was sitting on the edge of the bed reading a book.

The warm yellow light shone on him, outlining his tall and straight profile. His dark hair fell down, adding a touch of gentleness.

The key point is that his blanket only covered his waist.

Her bathrobe was open, whether intentionally or unintentionally, it was hard to tell.

Shen Li walked over and gently hugged his neck from behind, rubbing her cheek against his back: "Second brother, you look so alluring."

Lu Cheng put down his book, turned to look at her, and asked with a hint of confusion in his eyes, "What does 'good desire' mean?"

Shen Li pursed her lips, leaned close to his ear, and said in a slightly mischievous tone, "It's just... I really want to sleep with you."

Lu Cheng paused for a moment, then chuckled softly, the vibration of his chest transmitted through their pressed skin: "Then I am truly honored."

Shen Li walked around to stand in front of him, scrutinizing his face with sparkling eyes: "If you wore a pair of elegant half-rimmed glasses, you would be absolutely stunning."

"Oh? What kind?" Lu Cheng raised an eyebrow, intrigued.

"Wait a minute, I'll pick one out for you in my space." After saying that, Shen Li closed her eyes and started selecting from the options in her space.

After searching for a long time, she finally chose a pair of non-prescription half-rimmed glasses. The style was simple and elegant, and it cost more than a thousand yuan, which was considered a good deal in this day and age.

Shen Li opened her eyes, and a pair of glasses was now in her hand.

She gently picked it up, carefully put it on Lu Cheng, and adjusted the position of the frames.

Lu Cheng casually pushed up the middle of his glasses.

This scene.......

Shen Li couldn't help but exclaim in amazement, "My God! It's perfect! If you wear a suit with it, you'll look like a noble young master straight out of a comic book."

Lu Cheng was also curious and stood up, saying, "Let me see."

As he spoke, he reached out and took Shen Li's hand, leading her to the full-length mirror in the dressing room.

The man in the mirror had handsome features, and after putting on glasses, his original aggressiveness was softened, and he gained a more refined and elegant air.

Who would have thought that such a gentle and refined person only has a junior high school education?

Wearing these glasses instantly elevates one's entire aura.

"Does it look good?" Lu Cheng turned to ask her, his eyes filled with anticipation.

Shen Li nodded: "Absolutely brilliant."

Upon hearing Shen Li's answer, he scooped her up in his arms and said in a doting tone, "If Li Li says it looks good, then it must look good."

Shen Li hugged his neck tightly and kissed him on the chin: "It's because you're good-looking that the glasses make you look even better."

"Lili's words are always so sweet." Lu Cheng lowered his head, his nose brushing against hers, his breath hot.

"Would you like to try it, Second Brother, and see how sweet it is?" Shen Li leaned closer and gently brushed her lips against his mouth.

"Of course I'll try it," Lu Cheng replied in a low, husky voice, lowering his head to deepen the kiss.

Shen Li closed her eyes slightly, immersing herself in his tenderness. She preferred Lu Cheng's gentle and gradual approach, which was not a simple release of desire, but a harmony and fusion from the depths of their souls, with every action wrapped in deep love.

The lights in the room were dimmed, and only the moonlight from outside the window shone through the thin curtains, casting dappled shadows on the floor and elongating the silhouettes of the two people embracing.

An ambiguous atmosphere filled the air, with only their rapid and passionate breathing remaining.

After the passion subsided, Lu Cheng carried the limp Shen Li to the bathroom to wash her, his movements as gentle as if he were handling a rare treasure.

Back in bed, Shen Li glanced at the alarm clock on the bedside table, her eyes brightening.

Lu Cheng noticed her subtle movements, reached out and pulled her into his arms, asking softly, "What's wrong?"

"It's nothing," Shen Li shook her head, struggling to get up, "I'll go make another call."

Seeing this, Lu Cheng quickly grabbed the bathrobe next to him and carefully draped it over her shoulders, then adjusted the collar to keep her warm: "I'll wait for you, come back soon."

"Okay, you go to sleep first, I'll be back soon." Shen Li kissed him on the cheek, then turned and walked out of the bedroom.

She insisted on contacting Jerry because she had a plan in mind—she planned to go abroad in the future, and it would be good to have an acquaintance to guide her.

Moreover, she also wanted to acquire some advanced machine tools, which required a reliable intermediary.

When you're out and about, having someone you know to help you is always much better than figuring things out on your own.

Moreover, the situation abroad is much more chaotic than in China these days, so having someone to look out for you would make you feel more at ease.

It's a little past nine o'clock in the evening, which corresponds to seven or eight o'clock in the morning in the United States.

Over the past few days, she has called several times at different times, but no one has answered, so she is inevitably getting anxious.

Shen Li picked up the phone and dialed a number.

In this day and age, making international calls requires a transfer. She waited patiently for a while, and finally heard a busy signal on the other end of the line.

One call, two calls, three calls... Time passed second by second, but no one answered the phone.

Shen Li's heart sank little by little. Could it be that Jerry changed his number after only two years?

Just as she was about to hang up, a harsh, gruff English voice came from the other end: "Calling at this hour, you'd better have something important to say."

Shen Li: "..."

It turns out I disturbed someone's sleep.

She secretly thought to herself, "So it's not just Chinese people who have morning grumpiness; foreign friends do too."
