Chapter 917 What would Li Sinian do if he found out? (3)

Xiao Man said herself, "I can’t tell you the reason right now."

Qianxun didn’t know how to respond when someone knocked on the door.

"I’ll get the door!"

The person knocking was Gu Liancheng. Seeing him, Qianxun appeared very happy.

"Hubby, how come you’re here?"

"Here to pick you up," Gu Liancheng said, pulling Qianxun into an embrace and patting her head, "You must be tired."

"Not really."

"I heard you did well at the press conference. I haven’t seen it yet, but I’ll check it out later."

"Just telling it like it is."

Ever since the two got their marriage certificate, something felt different, becoming even sweeter. Whenever they talked, they would just gaze into each other’s eyes, annoyingly lovey-dovey.

As a bystander, Xiao Man felt it was a bit much, tapping the nearby makeup table with slight annoyance, "Hey, you two, could you tone it down a little? You’re public figures, you’re making a show of yourselves."

Gu Liancheng pulled Qianxun into his arms, looking at Xiao Man, "Then I won’t disturb you moping here alone, I’m taking Qianxun with me."

Qianxun was surprised, "Really? But we have a TV interview later—"

"Little Qianxun," Xiao Man said with a smile, "You two just got married, don’t just focus on work. I can handle the drama; don’t underestimate your sister here, just go do your thing."

Before Qianxun could say more, Gu Liancheng, holding her by the shoulders, said, "In that case, I’m taking Qianxun with me, thank you for your hard work."

The last three words, he said to Xiao Man.

Xiao Man smiled, not at all obstructive.

It’s good to be happy...

Everyone being happy is good.

Not long after Gu Liancheng and Qianxun left, Xiao Man leaned on a recliner, closing her eyes to rest.

This was a private rest room prepared by the event organizers, which no one else could enter without her permission.

A familiar knock on the door prompted her to open her eyes.

Li Sinian let himself in.

Xiao Man knew him, so she didn’t specifically get up to open the door.

Li Sinian walked up to her, took her hand, and helped her up.

Xiao Man was very light, her body as thin and fragile as a sheet of paper.

"Have you been taking sleeping pills to sleep recently?"

Xiao Man blinked, "Did you find out?"

She smiled, seemingly not flustered by being caught.

She knew Li Sinian wouldn’t scold her.

He never scolded her; their relationship was so special that even she couldn’t fully grasp it.

"Why?" Li Sinian simply asked.

"Can’t sleep." She answered.

Xiao Man didn’t elaborate, as he must have already known, surely having seen her medical records.

Li Sinian’s capabilities needed no mention.

"Mental stress." He said.

"Perhaps, the doctor said most modern people suffer from mental stress."

"Come to Mexico with me."

"I’m afraid it’s not possible currently, the TV drama just wrapped, and there are many promotional events to attend, I can’t leave Xicheng."

"Cancel them."

Xiao Man moved closer to him, hugging him and nestling into his chest, her voice gentle, "But Mr. Li, didn’t you say you wouldn’t meddle in my career? That you wouldn’t force anything on me if I didn’t want you to, you promised."

"I didn’t say I couldn’t change my mind."

Xiao Man lifted her head to look at him, her beautiful slender fingers touching his face, smiling, "Mr. Li isn’t someone who goes back on his word."
