1658 Subtle Interactions (1/2)
Ye Qianqian's reaction was so drastic that it made everyone look at her.
Ye Youyou's eyes carried a hint of suspicion. Li Jinnan glanced at them meaningfully.
Everything was still in a blur for Shen Zhilie. He looked at Ye Qianqian, clearly not understanding the reason for her outburst.
Ye Qianqian laughed sheepishly as she met the gaze of the three individuals. She was feeling so awkward.
Her face began to heat up for no reason. Ye Qianqian laughed dryly as she tried to backtrack. ”Is that not the case?” she asked as she looked to Shen Zhilie.
Shen Zhilie was still in a confused state. So what if they were living together? It wasn't as if they were sleeping in the same room and sharing a bed!
Looking at Ye Qianqian's expression, Shen Zhilie decided to change his tune and replied, ”Yes, indeed.”
With one look at them, Ye Youyou knew there was something fishy going on between them. No matter how hard she thought, she couldn't imagine what it is.
It was said that a single pregnancy could dim a woman's mind for three years. Her pregnancy had barely begun, yet her mind was already slowing down.
Ye Qianqian looked down and didn't utter another word. Her eyes kept moving as she flipped through the menu.
Li Jinnan picked up the teacup and took a sip. He looked at Shen Zhilie and asked, ”Has it been busy for you lately? You've had to shuttle between the Capital and Kingstown. On one side is your family, and on the other…”
At that juncture, Li Jinnan deliberately paused. No one could tell from his tone whether it had been intentional or not.
The small pause got Ye Qianqian all flustered again.
”On the other side is work.”
As Li Jinnan completed his sentence, Shen Zhilie clasped his hands together with his fingers entwining each other and replied, ”It's manageable. I applied for leave recently since the hospital isn't exactly busy right now. The shuttling to and from is indeed quite tiring. So, when you two intending to get married?”
The change in topic was a little abrupt, but Ye Qianqian heaved a sigh of relief.
