On the surface, Zhuang Yayan was very calm and composed.

Only she could feel it herself, a cold sweat was emerging from her back and her heart was beating wildly.

She knew that Ye Jiayan had probably discovered something about this kind of question, but she still wanted to take a gamble.

What if Ye Jiayan didn’t find out that those bentoes were made by Jiang Lili?

What if she can move Ye Jiayan?

When Ye Jiayan heard the answer, his expression changed subtly, and this change gave birth to a cold and ironic smile on the corner of his lips.

"Yayan," his voice was chilling, "think about it before answering."

Zhuang Yayan immediately didn't dare to take any luck anymore and asked directly: "Mr. Ye, do you know anything?"

To be more precise, Ye Jiayan accidentally discovered something.

In the morning, he saw Jiang Lili’s bento in the insulation box. A sense of familiarity occupied his brain. At that moment, he developed a strong intuition-

Before he and Jiang Lili went to Maldives, the bentoes he ate at the company were from Jiang Lili's hands.

In order to confirm this conjecture, he asked directly: "Why don't Lili want me to know that those bentoes were made by her? What did she tell you that you would lie to cover her?"

“…”

Zhuang Yayan felt her whole scalp numb.

Fortunately, when she was placing a bet, she had already figured out how to end if she lost the bet.

"Mr. Ye, I'm sorry." Zhuang Yayan not only did not feel nervous but showed a relieved expression, "I promised Li Li that I must help her keep this secret anyway. I was forced to do it just now.

"But, since you discovered it, my confidentiality is meaningless. The truth is that those bentoes are indeed made by Lili."

Ye Jiayan's face did not improve, and his voice was still cold: "Answer my question just now. Also, how did you and her cooperate?"

Zhuang Yayan explained clearly:

"Let me start from the beginning - it wasn't long before you and Lili got married, and Lili and I also met. One day, I accidentally told her that I didn't know which restaurant to order lunch for you at noon. She told me that she could prepare it at home and deliver it to me.

"I didn't expect that the things she sent were very similar to takeaway bento. She told me that the things were made according to your taste, but she didn't want you to be psychologically burdened. Please tell me that I ordered them in a restaurant - this is the whole story.

"As for why Lili doesn't want you to know, I can't answer."

In fact, Zhuang Yayan is just as hard to understand - why did Jiang Lili hide it from Ye Jiayan?

This is obviously a great opportunity to touch Ye Jiayan!

She asked Jiang Lili, but she just smiled, without explanation, and said sorry that she was embarrassed and asked her to lie for her.

Ye Jiayan didn't make much of this issue because there was another thing that made him feel very strange-

"If I remember correctly, after returning from the Maldives, she didn't send the bento again?"

"Yes." Before Ye Jiayan asked, Zhuang Yayan took the initiative to explain, "I asked her, but at first, she didn't explain. Later, I met her by chance in the mall. She told me that she was going to be busy with her own affairs and had no time to make lunch boxes to deliver them. She also told me that if you ask, I will tell you that the store is closed."

Ye Jiayan frowned, "That's it?" Isn't this too hasty, too perfunctory?

Zhuang Yayan nodded, "That's it."

"I understand." Ye Jiayan signaled Zhuang Yayan to go out.

"Actually, I can understand Lili-" Zhuang Yayan did not leave immediately, but said, "After returning from the Maldives, she decided to go to work, and she really didn't have time. And she might be tired of it."

"Hot?"

Ye Jiayan's focus seems to be on these two words, and Zhuang Yayan's eyes are more popular than before.

"I can't hold on anymore - it might be more appropriate to say this." Zhuang Yayan smiled and shrugged, "It is difficult to stick to something alone."

“…”

Ye Jiayan didn't say anything, Zhuang Yayan said tactfully: "Mr. Ye, then I'll go out first."

Ye Jiayan said "yes", and after the office door was closed, he got up and walked to the floor-to-ceiling window.

The noon sunlight poured in through the glass windows, making the office spacious and bright.

The material of window glass is very special. The sunlight pouring into the office is not only not dazzling, but also very warm and soft.

silently--

Ye Jiayan has been thinking about these two words.

This is what he couldn't understand the most.

Jiang Lili could clearly tell him openly that she made the bentoes and she could even send them directly to the company.

Why did she do such a thing silently through Zhuang Yayan, and why did she hide it from him?

What puzzled him even more was how could she stop just by saying that?

She no longer continues to do such stupid things, really just because she is going to work?

No, not right.

After returning from the Maldives, her change was not just that she stopped giving him lunch boxes.

Can drowning once can make a person's temperament change greatly?

Ye Jiayan thought, turned around and took the phone next to the mouse. The screen showed that he had received several new WeChat messages, one of which was sent by Jiang Lili, saying that she and her colleagues had already gone to the island.

He entered a line of words, deleted, entered again, deleted, and finally sent a hard sentence:

"Remember to keep your phone in communication."

He put his phone on the high-legged table by the window, and Jiang Lili did not reply until the screen dimmed.

In the past, no matter what he posted, Jiang Lili would reply to him as soon as possible.

Since she went to work, she has rarely responded to his news.

Before going to work, he was sure that Jiang Lili was in his eyes and heart. It was the best proof that she did so many things for him in different ways.

What about now?

Ye Jiayan thought, picked up his phone again, and the screen illuminated automatically, but no new message was received.

He frowned and sent another message to Jiang Lili-

“??”

At this time, Jiang Lili and He Yingqin were eating by the beach.

As soon as they got on the island, they kept running and busy, and now they had time to stop and take a breath. Jiang Lili suggested that it would be better to have lunch, take a break and continue working in the afternoon.

He Yingqin took Jiang Lili to the beach and saw Jiang Lili taking out food from his bag. After opening it, it was still hot and exuding a tempting fragrance.

"Wow!" He Yingqin exclaimed, "Did you do it?"

"Yes." Jiang Lili asked, "Do you want to eat or eat sushi?"

"I..." He Yingqin swallowed, "What should I do if I want to eat?"

"You can have a meal." Jiang Lili handed the rice to He Yingqin, "This is a little more weight and it is more full."

He Yingqin took a bite and gave Jiang Lili a thumbs up, "The fairy cooking skills. Alas, our Tang Lu's cooking skills are also very good."

"Tang Lu can still cook?" Jiang Lili took a packet of sushi soy sauce and tore it open, her eyes unable to hide her surprise.

"Yes, and it's very delicious, as delicious as you do!" He Yingqin said, "It's because he has been getting busier and busier in the past two years, and Tang Lu rarely cooks by himself."

"If there are too many things, I really can't cook by myself."

Jiang Lili deeply understands this.

As she said that, she suddenly remembered something, looked at her phone casually, and saw Ye Jiayan's reply, she subconsciously turned her hand and prevented He Yingqin from seeing her phone screen.

She replied to Ye Jiayan that the signal on the island is very good and the communication is no problem. She and her colleagues did not see any news while having dinner.

She thought that Ye Jiayan would probably reply to a monosyllable word like "Yeah", and then their conversation ended here.

However, this time, Ye Jiayan did not play according to the rules.

"What you eat now is what you cook in the morning?"

Alas, how could he be interested in such a thing?

Jiang Lili replied with a certain "Yes" in confusion.

Ye Jiayan asked again:

"What colleague was you going to the island with?"

"Tang Lu's assistant." Jiang Lili thought about it more and more confused, "Why are you asking so much?"

"It's okay, just ask."

Ye Jiayan was so perfunctory that he didn't even want to hide the perfunctory in his answer. Jiang Lili was too lazy to pay attention to him and said, "I won't tell you anymore, we still have to work after we finish eating."

This time, Ye Jiayan really only replied with one "Yeah", ending this brief chat.

He threw his cell phone back to his desk, and his brows frowned deeply at some point.

He couldn't even eat the bento made by Jiang Lili, but could Tang Yu's assistant enjoy it?
