After Leng Yan and Ye Zilin returned to the apartment together, Ye Zilin went to the kitchen to fry steak and prepare red wine.
Sitting in front of the long dining table, under the reflection of the crystal lamp, the two of them sat face to face, "Yan, how do you think it tastes okay?"
Ye Zilin watched him take a bite of steak.
"Well, it's tender and juicy, and your steak is still cooked so well."
Leng Yan said with a smile, picked up the goblet on the side and took a sip.
"I'm worried that I won't do it well.
I haven't done it for a long time."
Ye Zilin is actually confident.
In order to make Leng Yan happy, she deliberately learned it.
Her steak frying skills are definitely comparable to those of Five Stars.
A senior chef in a first-class hotel.
"Yan, if you like it, I will cook it for you often, okay?"
As long as he is happy and lets her cook it every day, she is also willing.
Leng Yan put down the wine glass in his hand and shook his head, "You don't have to work so hard.
If you want to eat, we can go to the restaurant to eat."
He looked at the dining table.
They were all the best in terms of color and taste.
However, he had no appetite.
He missed the home-cooked dishes that Jiang Ruoxi would change every time.
It was very warm and felt like home.
"Yan, why don't you eat?"
Ye Zilin asked when she saw that he was just looking at the steak in a daze.
"It's nothing."
Leng Yan opened her thin lips lightly and said with a smile.
Ye Zilin saw that he was absent-minded, but she said nothing and continued to cut the steak for him with a smile.
Leng Yan was sitting in front of the computer.
Suddenly his cell phone rang.
He looked at the number on it and picked it up without hesitation, "Boss, I didn't bother you."
Pang Jie's voice came from the other end of the phone.
"Excuse me, you still called, didn't you?"
Leng Yan frowned slightly, did he have to talk so much every time he called?
"Uh, cough, yes."
Pang Jie cleared his throat, "Boss, I'm here to report to you about my sister-in-law's situation."
"What's going on?
Tell me quickly.
Don't talk nonsense."
Leng Yan said angrily.
It seemed that since he was out of the country during this period, Pang Jie must have been living too casually.
"Boss, you are really a nervous sister-in-law, when do you plan to come back?"
Pang Jie circled around a few times, but still didn't get to the topic.
Leng Yan paused for a moment, yes, it was time for him to go back.
"Boss, boss" Pang Jie called him when he couldn't hear the answer.
"Say."
Leng Yan said lightly.
He had already promised Ye Zilin to stay here for Christmas before going back.

He should wait until then before going back.
"Actually, sister-in-law is the same as usual, nothing special.
She stayed in the apartment except going to school.
Oh, no, I went to the orphanage twice on the weekend."
Pang Jie said slowly .
Leng Yan raised her lips slightly when she went to the orphanage.
No wonder, she promised the children last time that she would visit them again, but she didn't expect to go so soon.
"Have you not been to other places?"
Leng Yan asked again.
Didn't she go back to the Jiang family or the Leng family?
"Yes, she went to Lin's house once."
Pang Jie answered on the other end of the phone and could imagine what Leng Yan's expression would be like.
As soon as Leng Yan heard about the Lin family, anger emerged from the bottom of his heart, "Why did she go to the Lin family?"
It seems that Lin Zhanpeng still wants Jiang Ruoxi to become his granddaughter-in-law.
"Yes, and it was the eldest son of the Lin family who drove her back in person."
Pang Jie said with a smile, "Boss, are you jealous?"
"You are too troublesome."
Leng Yan retracted his thoughts, "If you have nothing else to say, just hang up."
"Boss, do you miss your sister-in-law?
There are photos in your mailbox.
You can look at them as you like."
Pang Jie followed Jiang Ruoxi almost all the time and took a lot of photos.
To be honest, how could the boss not like such a beautiful and lovely woman like my sister-in-law?
Looking at the look of the boss now, he must be nervous about her.
"Okay, hang up."
Leng Yan was about to hang up.
"Boss, one more thing, you don't know when my sister-in-law's birthday is?"
Pang Jie wondered, how could he, the boss, be so careful?
Leng Yan was startled for a moment, "when" is her birthday coming soon?
But what does her birthday have to do with him?
But he still wanted to know.
"December 24th."
Pang Jie chuckled, "It happens to be Christmas Eve."
"I know.
How are things at the company?"
Leng Yan did not hang up the phone, but instead changed the topic to business matters.
"Boss, don't worry.
With me here, nothing will happen," Pang Jie said confidently.
Leng Yan nodded, "Yes, I understand."
"Well, boss, I have reported everything that needs to be reported.
Can I have a day off tomorrow?"
Pang Jie asked a little pitifully.
"Yeah."
Leng Yan had already clicked into the mailbox, saw the unread email, and raised the corners of his lips slightly.
After hanging up the phone, she moved her fingers gently and flipped through a photo.

In each photo, she had a slight smile on her face.
She was playing with the children in the orphanage, on the green grass.
Running around and playing games.
Walking alone on the college road, in the cold wind, rubbing her hands and breathing, she made the smile on his face deepen.
She was obviously very afraid of the cold, but she showed off even if she was in front of him or not.
The Porsche in the garage doesn't drive and he has to walk to school every day.
Jiang Ruoxi really makes him look at him differently.
Ye Zilin walked out with a cup of coffee and saw the smile on Leng Yan's face.
What made him smile like this?
"Yan" Ye Zilin called him softly.
"Why haven't you rested yet?"
Leng Yan closed the mailbox and turned to look at Ye Zilin.
Ye Zilin sat down next to him, "You are still busy, how can I rest?
I made you a cup of coffee."
Leng Yan took the coffee cup and took a sip.
It was the coffee brewed by Ye Zilin, whom she once missed, and Jiang Ruoxi's three-in-one instant coffee, which she once disliked.
"Yan, it's snowing outside again."
Ye Zilin looked out the window, looking at the falling snowflakes, and her mood became bad.
"Well, if you don't like seeing snow, just close the curtains."
Leng Yan knew that Ye Zilin hated snow because she was abandoned in the orphanage on a snowy day.
Ye Zilin walked to the window, glanced at the white outside with some disgust, closed the curtains, and sat down next to Leng Yan again.
Leng Yan just took her into his arms and said nothing.
"I don't know if it snows in China," Ye Zilin said with a slight sigh.
It has snowed several times in the United States, and it must have snowed in China too.
"Do you want to go back?"
Leng Yan just looked at the tightly drawn curtains and asked calmly.
Ye Zilin shook her head, "No, no, let's spend Christmas together here and then go back."
She didn't want to miss this lively atmosphere.
She wanted to spend it with Leng Yan.
Returning to China would only bring back her sad past
