076: Apologies
At noon, Bai Junwen had lunch in Jinyuan, and chatted with Xu Li until three o'clock before leaving.
Before leaving, he also told her not to forget to go to the hospital for a check-up next Wednesday.
After sending Bai Junwen away, Xu Li returned to the house, picked up her mobile phone, and sent a WeChat message to Shang Yan, asking him if he would come back for dinner in the evening.
Shang Yan waited for more than ten minutes before replying to her, "Well, go back, but it will be later." β
"Uncle Lin, let's cook a few more dishes that Shang Yan likes to eat at night, and besides, isn't there an empty vase? Go buy a bouquet of yellow roses and plug it in, it's spring, and the house feels too vibrant, too deserted. β
After seeing his news, Xu Li smiled and raised her eyebrows, and instructed Uncle Lin.
Uncle Lin was stunned when he heard this, and then said with a smile, "There are a lot of empty vases at home, do you think you need to buy a few more bouquets?" β
"Okay, you can just look at the other flowers and buy them, that is, the yellow roses in the living room remain unchanged, and then buy a bunch of bellflowers, I want to put them in the bedroom."
"Do you need to put it in your study?"
"Pendulum, just buy an extra bunch of bellflowers."
After seeing that Uncle Lin instructed his subordinates to buy it, Xu Li went to the wine cellar again.
The wine cellar in Jinyuan is very large, which treasures the good wines of various countries, Xu Li has lived in it for more than four years, and has only been to the wine cellar once, or when he was just married, he came to visit.
She is not a person who loves wine, and she doesn't have much research on wine, in the past, she wanted to give gifts or what wine she wanted to drink, she would directly ask Uncle Lin to get it.
The wine on each shelf is clearly marked, where it was produced, when it was made, etc., including taste and characteristics.
Xu Li picked it for a while, and finally picked the 96-year-old reserve of ChΓ’teau Lamondo, which has a rich and wonderful fruity aroma and a long aftertaste, and the taste is fuller and sweeter.
Towards evening, the maids who had purchased also returned, and Xu Li put the two bunches of bellflower in the study and bedroom on the table, and sprayed some water droplets on them.
It adds a bit of elegance to the originally too quiet study.
The bouquet of yellow roses in the restaurant was also pruned and bottled by Xu Li himself.
At around eight o'clock, when Shang Yan came back, what caught his eye was the bouquets of flowers dotted in several corners, and then walked in, the bouquet of two-color roses placed in the middle of the dining table was the most conspicuous, and then the bouquet of two-color tulips in the living room.
"Sir, you're back, and dinner is ready." Uncle Lin walked out of the kitchen and bowed.
"Where's Xu Li?"
"Madame is upstairs."
"These flowers ......"
"It was ordered by Madame in the afternoon, and the flowers in the dining room and your study bedroom were carefully selected by Madame and planted by herself."
Uncle Lin looked at his cold expression, and added, "Dinner today is also your favorite dish that Mrs. asked the kitchen to prepare, you came back a little later than usual today, Madame was hungry at seven o'clock, but she has been waiting for you." β
Shang Yan pursed his lips, his eyes swept over the dazzling yellow roses, and the corners of his lips unconsciously raised, "Let's eat!" β
He went upstairs to the bedroom, and before his hand could touch the doorknob, the door was pulled open first, and a bright and delicate face like a ceramic doll burst into his eyes.
"You're back." Xu Li smiled at him, looking generous and elegant.
Looking at her extremely delicate outfit, Shang Yan's eyes overflowed with shallow softness, "Well, dealing with Qiao Na's matter, it's been a long delay, are you hungry?" β
"I'm hungry, if you don't come back, I won't be able to keep my makeup." She walked up to him with broken steps, "Did you notice anything different?" β
"A lot more flowers." Shang Yan paused for a moment and added, "It's beautiful." β
"Who told you to say that the flowers, I mean me, the flowers can be seen by anyone with long eyes, is it good?"
Shang Yan, "......"
His little peacock's brain circuits are too twisted and twisted, and he sometimes can't keep up.
She wore a long dress of heavy embroidered lace in a foggy blue, which outlined her waist gracefully and perfectly, and wore a pear-shaped diamond necklace at her beautiful collarbone.
And her studs are matching.
It was his New Year's gift to her.
When she saw this necklace and stud earrings at that time, she couldn't put it down and wore it for a few days, and then it was put on hold because of work.
I put it back on today.
"Stud earrings and necklaces are perfect for you." He spoke lightly, a little uncertain in his tone.
Xu Li raised her eyebrows, "Let's go, I'm hungry, let's go down and eat." β
The two sat down at the table, and Uncle Lin poured wine for the two of them, and then silently withdrew from the restaurant.
"What day is it?"
Shang Yan stared at the yellow roses on the table, the dishes with all the colors and flavors, and this bottle of good wine, and carefully counted the days in his heart, not a wedding anniversary, not a birthday, and not a special festival.
But it's certainly not easy for her to get so heavy today.
But I really couldn't figure out anything in my heart, so I had to ask directly.
"It's not a day, it's just ...... I want to occasionally set off the atmosphere and add some fun to my life. Xu Li smiled and raised her wine glass, "Touch a glass?" β
Shang Yan also picked up the wine glass and touched her lightly, seeing that she drank it all in one gulp, he frowned slightly, "You drink less, this wine has a lot of stamina." β
"Okay."
Although it should sound so good, Xu Li drank four or five cups later, and at the end of the meal, her little face was flushed, and her beautiful eyes were full of pitiful autumn wave drunkenness.
When she still wanted to pour wine, she was stopped by Shang Yan, "You are already drunk and can't drink anymore." β
"What's the matter, I don't have a mouth, I can still ...... You can still go around in circles, don't believe it, you see ......."
Xu Li pouted dissatisfiedly, stood up and staggered and began to spin in circles.
But before she could finish the lap, she slammed into her chair and retreated.
Seeing this, Shang Yan hurriedly got up to help her and took her into his arms.
"Am I spinning well?" Xu Li leaned on his arms and asked with a smile like a flower.
Shang Yan was a little helpless, "Hmm." β
"Then I'll transfer it to you." As he spoke, he withdrew from his arms and began to spin in circles.
Shang Yan has always been by his side to protect her at any time, and before she turned to the staircase, when the world was about to fall, he reached out and caught her steadily, picked her up by the waist, and raised his legs to walk upstairs.
"Shang Yan."
"Hmm."
She slowly reached out and stroked his face, Shang Yan was slightly stunned, and looked at her with lowered eyes.
"Yesterday's scandal, I didn't take into account your feelings, I should have explained it to you as soon as possible, you must be very anxious."
Xu Li didn't know what kind of mood he was in when he saw the hot search yesterday, but he just thought about it according to Bai Junwen's empathy, so what she poured into these words was her own emotions.
Grievances, sadness, and depression.
So in the end, I even cried.
Shang Yan raised her eyebrows, and suddenly understood what was the reason why she was arranging flowers today, dressing up so exquisitely, and red wine.
His little peacock is apologizing to him.
It's just that, logically speaking, the wronged person should be him, but on the contrary, she said it pitifully, as if she had suffered some great grievance.
"I'm glad you can do this for me." He hooked the corners of his lips wantonly, and his voice was low and tight.
