"It's not an impact, but it's definitely a bit of a trouble." Shang Yan's voice was cold, but his attitude seemed a bit careless and light, "It's just that you and my wife had a dispute. Please apologize to me."

What is the use?"

As soon as these words came out, the atmosphere in the private room changed. Lin Jiao's heart thumped hard a few times. She didn't like this feeling of being suppressed and inferior to others.

She had no experience of enduring grievances, so she just said what came to her mind, "I've already apologized to Xu Li. It's because she didn't want to accept it. It's none of my business. She's not a good person, and I don't know what you like."

she……"

"Jiaojiao!"

When he saw Shang Yan's downcast expression, Director Lin quickly shouted angrily. In addition to a bit of suppressed anger, there was also a sense of powerlessness in his eyes that hated iron for not being able to become steel.

His daughter seems to be really spoiled.

Unable to bear any criticism or frustration, after Shang Yan said this, he completely forgot his previous instructions.

Lin Jiao was startled by Director Lin's scolding, and her shoulders shook. When she saw the warning and disappointment in his eyes, Lin Jiao's heart thumped.

I always feel like I might lose something soon.

Suddenly, I felt a little panicked, and subconsciously wanted to save something, so I blurted out, "Yes, what Mr. Shang said is that I will come to Ms. Xu again to apologize. I am really sorry... I was too arrogant and rude.

I hope Mr. Shang will forgive me."

The following words were squeezed out from between her teeth by grinding her teeth after realizing it.

Although she was very reluctant, these words could somehow calm the rising uneasiness in her heart.

"Ahem, Mr. Shang, don't be as familiar with this girl Jiao Jiao. She has such a temper. I heard Lao Lin talk about the incident before. It is indeed her fault. Let her have a good relationship with your wife later.

Apologize and admit your mistake."

Upon seeing this, Pang Junhong hurriedly stepped forward to mediate, fearing that Lin Jiao, an impolite little girl, would ruin his business.

"Yes, yes, Jiaojiao has been spoiled by us since she was a child. It's because of our lax discipline. Mr. Shang, please don't be as knowledgeable as her." Director Lin immediately agreed.

The project that his company restarted this year, after all, wanted to establish a relationship with Shang, so as to maximize the benefits.

Because of what happened last time, Lin suffered a lot of serious injuries, and was severely bitten off a piece of flesh by her opponent, which also caused pain for a long time.

Lin Jiao frowned, always feeling as if she was being abandoned by the whole world at this time.

Even her father is like this.

The discomfort in my heart suddenly arose again, but I couldn't let it out.

This feeling is really oppressive.

"There's no need to come to apologize." Shang Yan sneered, "My wife can't bear Ling Qianjin's temper. She can't stand the heat lately."

The atmosphere in the private room has cooled down a bit.

Shang Yan's words were like a silent slap on Director Lin's face, burning.

Although he was also dissatisfied, he now wanted something from someone. Of course he didn't dare to offend him, but he also didn't want to agree to what he said.

Shang Yan ignored Lin Jiao and took a seat on the main seat. Chen Mo, who had been following behind him silently, took the seat below him.

The rest of the people also took their seats, and after waiting for the food to be served, the atmosphere at the dinner table was still very solemn.

Pang Junhong stood up and poured wine for Shang Yan, "Mr. Shang, don't get me wrong, Lao Lin came today with sincerity. The main reason is that this matter was caused by Jiao Jiao, and Lin was implicated for no reason. Of course, this is also Lao Lin's fault."

I don’t know how to teach my daughter, and I usually indulge her too much.”

"Yes, I am punishing myself with a drink here to make amends to Mr. Shang." Director Lin took the words and raised the wine glass in his hand, drinking it down in one gulp. "I hope Mr. Shang will forgive me."

Director Lin has already said this. As a man, naturally he cannot hold on to this matter any longer.

But his disgust for Lin Jiao still hasn't diminished even a little bit.

His expression deliberately relaxed a bit, which made Pang Junhong and Director Lin see the clues, and immediately raised their glasses to toast him and Chen Mo.

Shang Yan also walked down the stairs. After two glasses of wine, he formally chatted about work matters.

At this time, Lin Jiao became a dispensable background, and even the food she ate seemed boring.

In the middle of the conversation, Shang Yan had already drank three glasses of wine. When Pang Junhong was about to continue pouring wine for him, he reached out his hand to block the mouth of the glass in time, "My wife doesn't like the taste of wine, just enjoy it, you two are free."

Pang Junhong and Director Lin were stunned. They knew that Shang Yan doted on Xu Li, but they didn't expect that he had doted on Xu Li to such an extent that he would take Xu Li's thoughts into consideration even when they had a drink.

The label of 'harsh wife control' was instantly slapped on his forehead by both of them.

I can't take it off anymore.

Under this situation, Pang Junhong and Director Lin couldn't let Shang Yan continue to drink. Naturally, the target turned to Chen Mo.

Chen Mo didn't drink all the time. He stopped after drinking about the seventh cup and seriously talked about Jiang Jiu'an's planning requirements.

After the dinner, the driver first took Shang Yan back to Jinyuan, and then took Chen Mo back to Jiangjiuge, a high-end villa community where he lived.

As soon as the door to the room opened, Xu Li, who was sitting on the bed reading a book, looked up and put down the book in her hand, "Well, you're back."

"Well, have you eaten?"

"Of course I did. What time is it?" Xu Li replied matter-of-factly, "Do you think you're gone and I can't think about food but tea?"

"No way?" Shang Yan asked with raised eyebrows while unbuttoning his suit.

"You are very important, but... now food is also very important to me, because the baby will be hungry too..."

As soon as she finished speaking, Xu Li smelled the smell of alcohol when she walked in front of him. She instinctively frowned, even wrinkled her nose, took a step back, raised her hand to fan, and said disgustedly, "Well, you

Have you been drinking?”

As she spoke, she suddenly felt an urge to feel sick to her stomach.

Seeing this, Shang Yan raised his arm and smelled it. Although he didn't drink much, he did have a lot of alcohol smell on his body.

"I didn't drink much." He pursed his lips, "I'm going to take a shower first."

Shang Yan came out after taking a shower. It was already past ten o'clock. Xu Li was still lying on the bed leisurely watching a slow life variety show. There were quite a lot of funny plots in it, which could just relieve her impetuous and irritable mood during pregnancy.

.

Xu Li paused the variety show on the tablet, put it aside, stood up and moved to the edge of the bed, "Come here, let me smell it, is there still a smell of alcohol?"

Shang Yan walked over obediently and let her stretch her head and smell him again and again.

His eyes were slightly lowered, and what was reflected in his eyes was a piece of snow-white skin, and a faint scent of cherry blossom bath fragrance enveloped the tip of his nose and lingered for a long time.

His Adam's apple rolled slightly, he moved his lips, raised his hand to grab her shoulders, and said hoarsely, "It should be gone."

Xu Li raised her eyes and caught the turbidity in his eyes before she could hide them. She raised her eyebrows and hooked her arms around his neck very naturally and ambiguously. Her tone was soft and somewhat clingy, "Shang Yan

, I’m hungry, please go down and get me something to eat.”

Shang Yan narrowed his eyes and hugged her waist, "On purpose?"

"What's intentional?" Xu Li looked innocent, but her eyes were full of cunning and charming.

Shang Yan was a little dumbfounded. He felt that this little peacock had learned bad things. If she hadn't been pregnant now, he would have let her taste the consequences of flirting.

But for now, this bitter pill can only be swallowed by oneself.

Seeing the helplessness in his eyes, Xu Li raised her eyebrows proudly, pecked his thin lips twice as compensation, and then said coquettishly, "Are you going to cook it for me? I'm really hungry."

."

Shang Yan's eyes slowly sank, and the hand around her waist tightened slightly. He lowered his head and sucked her soft and pink lips, sometimes lightly and sometimes hard. At the end, he seemed to punish her for what he had just done.

It seemed like he was teasing her on purpose, and he even bit her on purpose.

The force wasn't too heavy, but it still made Xu Li feel a slight pain.

"Hey...what are you doing?" Xu Li took a breath, gave him an angry look, and punched his chest with her fist in anger.

But it was much stronger than when he bit her.

The smile in Shang Yan's eyes gradually dimmed, he pecked the corner of her lips again, and asked in a low voice, "What do you want to eat?"

Xu Li thought about it seriously, "Let's make noodles. The black pepper beef fillet noodles you made last time are quite delicious."

Speaking of this, the light in her eyes was shining, and she was particularly spiritual.

Shang Yan curled his lips and couldn't help but pinch her cheek gently, "Then just wait, I'll go down and do it for you."

From the second month of pregnancy, Xu Li became lethargic and addicted to food. Although she had severe morning sickness and would vomit whatever she ate, it did not stop her from being greedy at all.

Especially after ten o'clock in the evening, I feel hungry very easily, and I often wake up from hunger at three or four o'clock in the middle of the night.

Whenever she is hungry, her temper becomes bad.

So with the lessons learned from the first two times, Shang Yan usually prepares food for her at night.

Even when I was free at home some time ago, I learned how to cook with Uncle Lin for a few days. In fact, I only made noodles, and I also learned to make a spicy and sour beef soup that Xu Li loves.

Not to mention that I have learned 10% of Uncle Lin’s essence, but I still have 70% or 80%.

The first time Xu Li ate something he cooked, she was a little surprised and thought he was a good cook.

At least better than her.

When I was studying abroad in Country M, I tried cooking several times, but they all ended in failure.
