Su Li felt that with Feng Huaijin there, everything went incredibly smoothly. Just a glance from him would scare people into trembling, truly worthy of the devil from Yanjing.
Su Li really wished she could drag Feng Huaijin to every business negotiation—his mere presence was enough to terrify everyone!
After that, everything went very smoothly. Su Li watched as Tian Zhuang signed the contract with a look of anguish, yet still forced a smile to invite him to stay for a meal.
Tian Zhuang didn’t say a word, claimed he was not feeling well, and left.
Su Li clicked her tongue twice, looking at the full table of dishes, and sighed, "So much food and Mr. Tian didn’t eat a bite; it’s all going into our stomachs."
With the task completed, even Su Li found the meal delicious.
"Want to keep eating?" Feng Huaijin looked up and asked.
Su Li gazed at the shrimp and immediately nodded joyfully.
Born in Linjiang, Su Li loved seafood, and shrimp was her absolute favorite.
Feng Huaijin frowned slightly and said, "My hands hurt from peeling."
With that, Feng Huaijin extended his hand towards her, his gaze intense in the dim light.
Upon hearing this, Su Li immediately complained, "Seventh Master Feng, are you regressing? This is a five-star restaurant with staff specifically to peel shrimp. I’ll call them in."
The veins on Feng Huaijin’s forehead twitched: "...No need."
He had hoped she might blow on them like they do in TV dramas.
As expected, TV dramas are full of lies.
Feng Huaijin lowered his eyes, his expression darkened as he grumbled, "Finished eating? If so, let’s go."
Su Li was slurping noodles, seeing Feng Huaijin’s sullen face ready to leave, she shouted from behind, "Not yet, why are you in such a rush?"
This man is really... peculiar.
Su Li quickly ate some more, threw down her chopsticks, wiped her mouth, and followed him out.
The restaurant was thoughtful enough to give Su Li a small bag of candy, hoping they would visit again.
Su Li caught up with Feng Huaijin, grabbing the hem of his clothes with one hand, her voice gentle as a spring breeze, soothingly saying, "Alright, alright, I know I’m being a bully, have some candy."
Before Feng Huaijin could speak, a creamy candy was pushed between his lips, the sweet milky flavor bursting in his mouth. ɪꜰ ʏᴏᴜ ᴡᴀɴᴛ ᴛᴏ ʀᴇᴀᴅ ᴍᴏʀᴇ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs, ᴘʟᴇᴀsᴇ ᴠɪsɪᴛ novel⸺fire.net
Feng Huaijin nodded, his voice slightly muffled, "Mm, very sweet."
Su Li was in a very good mood today, walking off the meal with Feng Huaijin by the riverbank, saying as they strolled, "Who would’ve thought the great heir from Yanjing would enjoy sweets."
Feng Huaijin’s gaze swept across the endless riverside, his tone as calm as the night: "Because I’ve had too much bitterness, I prefer sweet things more."
Su Li paused at his words, quietly observing Feng Huaijin’s handsome profile.
He probably didn’t have it easy in the Feng Family either...
Suddenly, Su Li thought of Tuanzi, wondering if Tuanzi would end up like Feng Huaijin if he returned to the Feng Family.
Thinking of Tuanzi, Su Li couldn’t resist taking out her phone.
Su Li hadn’t chatted with Tuanzi in recent days because Tuanzi had mentioned he was preparing for exams.
She wondered if the results were out yet.
As she thought about it, she noticed Tuanzi had sent a message on WeChat ten minutes ago.
[Tuanzi loves Mommy the most: Wow wow, Mommy spent money? Tuanzi can send you pictures now!]
Su Li was a bit surprised to see that—can send pictures now?
Spending money really is enjoyable!
[Tuanzi loves Mommy the most: Tuanzi’s exams are over, and the results came out today. Tuanzi came in first place.]

The picture turned out to be Tuanzi’s test paper, with a score of 120 boldly marked in red ink.
