Chapter 17 Stay away from me, we are in conflict

The person on the other side said indifferently, “Director Cheng, this is not an issue that should be considered within your scope of authority."

"Sorry, Mr. Yan, I made a mistake."

After Cheng Yijin apologized, she realized that the person on the other end had already hung up the phone.

Perhaps because of being deducted one after another, Wang Manna finally rested for the whole afternoon.

It was rare for Yu Li to get off work on time.

However, Yu Li was dumbfounded when she returned home, because just when she was about to take the key to open the door, she found that the door lock of her house had disappeared.

Yu Li was shocked by the rampant burglaries.

Just as she took her mobile phone out of her bag and prepared to call the police, a tall figure walked out of the house and took the mobile phone from her hand.

"My cell phone, Fang Yu, are you at home?"

Yu Li subconsciously reached for his phone, but when he saw Yan Shiheng's clothes, he slowly stopped.

She frowned and said, "Hurry up and return the phone to me. I'm going to call the police! Stop standing here and go into the house to see if there are any valuables lost?"

With that said, Yu Li turned around and walked towards the house.

Yan Shiheng narrowed his eyes and stared at Yu Li's back for a while.

His eyes dimmed slightly, and Yan Shiheng recalled Fang Yu's voice carefully.

"Yu Li."

Yan Shiheng used Fang Yu's voice and called Yu Li in a gentle and gentle tone.

The latter looked back at Yan Shiheng blankly, then turned his head to look at the stairs.

Yan Shiheng asked her what was wrong without changing his expression.

Yu Li frowned, "I seem to have heard Mr. Yan's voice..."

Looking at the empty corridor, Yu Li tilted his head and said to himself, "Did I hear wrongly?"

Yan Shiheng silently observed Yu Li's reaction, and the doubts in his heart were answered.

Yu Li didn't lie, she did have prosopagnosia.

Otherwise, she should question her true identity at this point.

Suspicion eliminated, Yan Shiheng threw the mobile phone in Yu Li's arms,

"No need to call the police, I didn't lose anything, and neither did you."

"ah?"

Yu Li was stunned for a moment, pointed to the empty door lock and asked, "What's going on with the door? Where's the lock on my door?"

Yan Shiheng pursed his lips and looked away.

"When I went out, I accidentally forgot my key at home. When you didn't come back, I asked someone to pick the door lock."

"ha?"

Yu Li was a little in disbelief, "No. If you don't have a key to open the door, can't you send a message asking when I will get home?"

"There is no contact information. I need to get in for urgent matters. Moreover, the door lock is old and can be easily picked. There is no security at all."

Seeing that Yan Shiheng spoke so righteously, Yu Li was a little angry.

"Hey! Do you know that this door lock belongs to the landlord? What serious consequences will there be if we pick the lock or change the lock without permission?! Do you know that these actions violate the terms of the rental contract? , according to the regulations, we have to compensate the landlord!"

Looking at Yu Li with angry expressions on his face, Yan Shiheng couldn't understand why she was angry.

"If you pay, you pay. No matter how much compensation the landlord proposes, I will bear it alone. Is this okay?"

The light-colored lips opened and closed and uttered light words.

Yu Li's eyebrows drew together tighter and tighter.

"Is this a question of compensation? If I can't continue to rent a house here because of your behavior, how can you compensate me? It's money again, right? Since you are so rich, why do you have to rent in my house?"

After yelling the last sentence, Yu Li turned around and left downstairs without looking at Yan Shiheng again.

Yan Shiheng subconsciously turned his gaze to Yu Li's back.

To be honest, he wasn't quite sure why Yu Li was angry.

His intuition told him that Yu Li was angry not only because he picked the lock privately.

But he didn't understand this woman, and he didn't want to explore the reason for her anger. After all, they just met by chance.

"Hey, young man, was that your girlfriend who walked down the stairs just now?"

Yan Shiheng's thinking was interrupted by a hearty voice.

He looked at the other party as if reflexively.

It was the locksmith he found through a small advertisement on the wall.

Yan Shiheng wanted to explain that the relationship between him and Yu Li was not the couple he thought.

But the unlocking master persuaded him, “Brother, I have been here too. In today's society, it is not easy to have a girlfriend, not to mention, your girlfriend is so beautiful. Conflicts are inevitable between lovers. You can communicate well!"

As he spoke, the master raised his hand and patted his shoulder, asking Yan Shiheng if he wanted a cigarette.

The latter declined the master's kindness and asked, "How much does it cost to repair the previous lock and put it back together?"

The locksmith was confused, "Huh? Didn't you say you wanted to change the smart lock?"

Thinking of Yu Li's sad and angry expression, Yan Shiheng said calmly, "I will pay you another hard fee. Please put the previous lock back."

Yu Li wandered outside for two hours.

She first went to the hospital to see her grandma, and then had a hearty meal out.

However, Yu Li felt angry when he thought of the man's pretentious attitude of "what can't be solved with money?"

She returned home holding her breath, only to find that the door lock was still the same as before, except that the outer layer was repainted and looked much brighter than before.

Yu Li took out the key and unlocked the door.

The room was dark, and Yan Shiheng was not at home.

Yu Li muttered in a low voice, “It's best to leave. I don't know where that guy put my bankbook..."

"Anyway, I definitely won't be like someone who just puts the bankbook somewhere where I can easily look through it."

A sudden sound from behind startled Yu Li, who was changing shoes in the entrance hall.

She lost her balance and fell directly to the ground, but unfortunately she hit the big toe of her left foot.

The old injury was not healed and he was hit hard again. Yu Li couldn't hold back and howled out.

"Hey...what's going on? It hurts...my big toe!"

"Fang Yu! Are you deliberately taking revenge on me?!"

Yu Li gritted his teeth with tears in his eyes and stared at Yan Shiheng, who lowered his eyelids and whispered "I'm sorry."

Faced with the man's honest apology, Yu Li could no longer find fault.

"I'm really... You're quarreling with me, right?"

She angrily slashed Yan Shiheng's face and stood up stubbornly, supporting the wall.

Worried that she would fall down and get injured again, Yan Shiheng offered to help her, but Yu Li severely refused.

"You, stay away from me! Keep your distance, we don't get along!"

After saying that, Yu Li jumped on one leg and sat on the sofa.

She reluctantly took off her socks and saw her terrible big toe.

Just the slightest touch to his bruised and purple toenails made Yu Li tremble in pain.

Yan Shiheng thought of what the locksmith said.

He stood a little far away from Yu Li and looked at the woman with reddish eyes.

"I'm sorry for hurting you."

Yu Li didn't want to talk to him, he just lowered his head to observe the severity of his foot injury.

Seeing that Yu Li refused to "reconcile" with him, Yan Shiheng said again, “I can bear your medicine..."

Before the man finished speaking the word "fee", Yu Li suddenly said, "Fang Yu, I am indeed short of money, I need money very much, and I really love money. However, this does not mean that here, Money solves everything."

Yu Li raised his face and his tone was extremely calm.

Yan Shiheng felt that Yu Li might have misunderstood something.

Normally, Yan Shiheng wouldn't even bother to explain.

But considering that he and Yu Li still need to live in peace for some time.

"Miss Yu, you misunderstood. I want to pay your medical expenses just because I think your injury was caused by me. As for the door lock, I didn't think carefully and I made my own decision."
