Chen Ling walked over to Li Lili and immediately picked up a hairdryer, preparing to dry her hair. "Just wipe it with a towel," Li Lili said to Chen Ling.

“That won’t do,” Chen Ling said domineeringly.

Then he started blow-drying Li Lili's hair. At that moment, Li Lili looked at Chen Ling in the mirror, so carefully blow-drying her hair, and felt a sweet warmth in her heart. Then Li Lili turned to look at Chen Ling. She saw that she had hugged him tightly.

"Hmm? What's wrong?" Chen Ling asked, putting down the hairdryer.

"I love you," Li Lili whispered. Then, she tiptoed and kissed Chen Ling. Faced with Li Lili's teasing, Chen Ling naturally couldn't resist the temptation. He forgot about drying his hair and only wanted to be intimate with Li Lili. So, Chen Ling hugged Li Lili tightly, looked down at her, and strode to the bedside…

After having breakfast, Chen Ling and Li Lili headed to the company in high spirits.

"What are you doing?" Chen Ling asked, looking at Li Lili with a blank expression.

"Oh, it's nothing. I just watched a funny video," Li Lili said cheerfully.

"Is it that funny?" Chen Ling asked curiously.

"Yes, it's hilarious. You're driving, so I won't let you watch it now. You can watch it when you have time." Li Lili stared intently at her phone.

Seeing that Chen Ling was confident, he didn't say anything more and continued to focus on driving. Soon they arrived at the company and began their busy work again.

During work hours, Li Lili saw Liu Yuyang take action.

"Please organize the event documents and send them to me," Liu Yuyang said softly as he walked to Chen Mengyao's side.

"Oh, okay." Chen Mengyao looked at Liu Yuyang, surprised at first, and then began to speak.

"What are you organizing? Are you crazy?" Chen Mengyao muttered to herself after Liu Yuyang left.

However, Li Lili witnessed all of this. She knew that this was Liu Yuyang's first step in trying to save their relationship—to establish some connection between them.

"What are you doing?" Li Lili walked up to Chen Mengyao and asked, pretending not to know anything.

"Liu Yuyang just asked me for an event plan. He wants me to put it together for him," Chen Mengyao said casually.

"Why are so many people insisting that you organize this? Where are the people in the planning department? Shouldn't they be in charge?" Li Lili asked deliberately.

"It's probably because I'm the company secretary. It's nothing, it's not a big deal. I'll just help him tidy up while I'm at it," Chen Mengyao said with a smile.

"Tell me, is something going on between you two?" Li Lili asked in a low voice.

"What could possibly happen? We haven't had any contact since the breakup," Chen Mengyao said with a wry smile.

"Oh, okay then. It seems he still has feelings for you and can't let you go, so he came looking for you again." After saying that, Li Lili laughed again.

"Don't talk nonsense. Even if he has feelings for me, I don't. Now that I think about it, being alone is great. I can do whatever I want and focus on my work," Chen Mengyao said firmly.

After she finished speaking, she nodded and said "Yes".

"Forget it, I won't meddle in your affairs. Just keep your own business in mind," Li Lili said, afraid that saying anything more would give her away.

"Okay." Chen Mengyao smiled at Li Lili. "Let's have lunch together." After saying that, Li Lili left.

"It will be difficult for Liu Yuyang to reconcile." After returning to her desk, Li Lili sent a WeChat message to Chen Ling.

"The more challenging it is, the better. That way he'll know how to cherish it and won't easily break up with me next time," Chen Ling replied.

After seeing this, Li Lili felt that Chen Ling's words made a lot of sense, so she smiled, put down her phone, and started working on her own.

Getting off work is like being free. As soon as it was time, Li Lili ran up to Chen Mengyao and asked, "Where are we going shopping today?"

"The usual place, shall we?" Chen Mengyao said with a smile.

They then left directly. When it comes to shopping, they're anything but lazy.

"I want to buy lipstick, a bag, and clothes. Ah, it's been so long since I've gone shopping," Li Lili said excitedly.

"Shh, keep it low-key," Chen Mengyao whispered.

"What are you afraid of? There are only the two of us in the car," Li Lili said.

"By the way, you're not planning to drive anymore?" Chen Mengyao suddenly thought of something and asked.

"I was just talking to Chen Ling the other day, thinking that when we have time, we'll practice some more. I still need to drive, otherwise it's too inconvenient," Li Lili said seriously.

"Then you can have Chen Ling practice with you on Sunday. Do you still have your driver's license?" Chen Mengyao asked, turning her head.

"Yes, I'm here," Li Lili said casually.

"That's good, as long as you can get over this mental hurdle." Chen Mengyao continued.

The two then chatted all the way.

Once inside the mall, Li Lili immediately let loose. "I'm going to buy lots of things," she said again.

"Hey, I was wondering why you've become so scary after getting married," Chen Mengyao said speechlessly.

However, upon hearing this, Li Lili exclaimed in surprise, "What's wrong with me? Am I acting strangely?"

“Yes, it’s more than abnormal, it’s like you’ve gone crazy. You’re so happy to be out shopping? If shopping makes you feel better, why don’t you come more often?” Chen Mengyao said seriously.

“I’m telling you, I rarely go shopping anymore after my son and I got married. Even when I was learning lightsaber, I didn’t have time. It’s my own stuff,” Li Lili said aggrievedly.

"It seems I made the right decision not to get married. Marriage is such a hassle," Chen Mengyao said thankfully.

"It's alright, I wouldn't call it troublesome. It's just that I didn't expect it before. Although marriage doesn't offer the same freedom as being single, it also has its advantages. At least you'll have someone to share everything with." Li Lili began to speak, worried that if Chen Mengyao became even less willing to get married because of this, she would be in big trouble.

"Come on, judging from your reaction at the mall, I knew you absolutely couldn't get married. Don't try to reason with me; being single and free is just fine," Chen Mengyao quickly stated her opinion. Looking at Li Lili's reaction, she was convinced her thinking was correct, and at the same time, she was very glad she hadn't fallen into the grave of marriage.

After seeing Chen Mengyao's reaction, Li Lili realized she had made a mistake. She thought she shouldn't have accompanied Chen Mengyao shopping today; now, Chen Mengyao's misunderstanding of the marriage had only deepened. What should she do?

"Alright, let's not talk about this anymore. As usual, let's go downstairs and get something to eat first," Li Lili quickly changed the subject.

"Yes, yes, let's go. I'm actually hungry." Upon hearing this, Chen Mengyao hurriedly pulled Li Lili over.

"Matcha Whisper, when did you set up shop here?" Li Lili muttered to herself, looking at the signboard.

"I don't know, but why don't we go and try it?" Chen Mengyao suggested.

"Okay," Li Lili said with a smile. Then the two of them walked in hand in hand.

"Um, um, what else would you like to eat?" "Um, and two more drinks."

"This one, please." The two finished ordering in no time and then started taking selfies with their phones.

At that moment, the two women struck various poses and snapped several photos.

"I'll send you all of them. You can edit whichever one you like and post it on WeChat Moments later," Chen Mengyao said with a smile.

"Okay, remember to give me the original image." Li Lili said quickly after hearing this.

The two then started editing the photos. Soon, the food arrived, mostly cakes and fruit salad.

"I'll take some more pictures of the food and post them all together later," Li Lili said, as she started taking photos with her phone.

"We've finished filming. I'll send it to you," Li Lili said to Chen Mengyao. The two then focused intently on editing the photos, neglecting to eat for a long time.

"Ah, published successfully," Chen Mengyao said happily.

"Me too, we can finally start eating!" Li Lili said with a smile.

Then the two of them finally picked up their chopsticks and prepared to eat.

"The taste is alright."

"Mmm, it's quite delicious."

"However, there aren't many customers in the store."

"I don't know, maybe it's because the new store just opened."

"Plus, there are lots of delicious foods here."

The two chatted back and forth as they slowly ate their meal. Although they were supposed to be out shopping, it felt more like they were out for afternoon tea.

"I feel like something's missing," Li Lili sensed that something was off.

"What's missing? Nothing, right?" Chen Mengyao mumbled in a daze.

“We’ve finished all the food, why are we still sitting here?” Li Lili began.

“Yes, we’re here to go shopping, let’s go.” Chen Mengyao suddenly remembered their purpose for coming and quickly said.

So the two of them immediately stood up and prepared to go out.

"I wasted too much time inside," Li Lili said with a sigh after coming out.

"It's okay, just treat it as a break. After a long day at work, sitting for a while won't hurt. This way, we can go shopping properly," Chen Mengyao comforted her.

“You’re right,” Li Lili said, smiling at Chen Mengyao.

The two then started strolling around the streets from the first floor.

"Mengyao, what do you think of this dress?" Li Lili said, holding up a dress from the store against herself.

"No, no, no, change it." Chen Mengyao shook her head immediately after seeing it.

“This one,” Li Lili said, changing into another outfit.

"That won't work either, let's try another one," Chen Mengyao said, still shaking her head.

"Here, this one." After hearing this, Li Lili picked up another item.

"It's alright, you can try it out first." After seeing this, Chen Mengyao did not immediately sentence him to death.

Then Li Lili took the clothes and excitedly went to the fitting room.

She changed her clothes in no time.

"It doesn't feel quite like what I expected," Li Lili said to herself in the mirror.

"Then let's change her and take another look." Chen Mengyao looked Li Lili up and down, then said calmly.

So Li Lili went back to the fitting room and changed into her own clothes.

The two then passed by a handbag shop.

"Ningxue, hurry up, I want to buy a bigger bag, what do you think of this one?" Chen Mengyao said as soon as she came in.

"It looks great, try it on," Li Lili said with a smile.

"It looks good," Chen Mengyao said after putting it on.

“It really is beautiful,” Li Lili, who was standing next to her, also chimed in.
