Li Han was also stunned, but soon pulled himself together. He slowly unbuckled his belt and said,
"What are you doing? Why are you in such a panic?"
Shu Tian blushed and looked away from him. She coughed softly. "Well, when did you employ a
servant to help me?"
"Not long ago." The man replied with an indifferent tone. Then she heard him zip his pants.
Shu Tian's ears turned red, and she didn't dare to move her eyes. She stared at the carpet under her
feet. "You've said that you don't like strangers at home. Why did you hire her?"
"It's true, but I can't leave you handling all of these chores. You need some help." She cooked for him a
few times and took the meals to the hospital. Although she didn't mention the small wound on her
fingers, he still saw it. He was concerned about her, so he looked for a servant as her assistant before
leaving hospital.
Shu Tian was absolutely willing to have an assistant. However, at the thought of what happened to him
when he was a child and his disgust and resistance towards servants and strangers, she didn't want
him to do something against his will. "Don't worry about me. I'm now a bit busier as you're in hospital
but I can handle all things with ease at ordinary times.
"But my heart will ache." Li Han said as he walked up to her. His belt had been unbuckled and
removed. His pants were hanging loosely around his waist, and the upper part of his underwear could
be seen.
Shu Tian took a step back, but he stepped forward. He kept approaching her and she was forced into a
corner.
Her body was pressed against the hard wall. She subconsciously swallowed. She raised her arms
between their close bodies, saying, "What do you want to say? You don't have to act so indecently."
Li Han placed one of his hands next to her head. "What indecent things did I do?"
Shu Tian was speechless. "I don't think you need to ask. You know what's on your mind right now!"
"Oh..." He elongated this word. Suddenly, he seemed to recall something. "I did have a lot of happy
memories here before."
He deliberately emphasized these words, giving her hints.
Some indescribable images flashed through her mind. Her face was flushed and she glared at him
angrily. "We're talking about something serious!"
"The servant has been hired. I won't fire her. It's nice to have someone at home to help you. That's all."
"But..."
"No buts." He interrupted her, "It's true I don't like it, but I can give in for you."
Hearing what he said, Shu Tian swallowed her words. She had subtle feelings. She was thinking for
him wholeheartedly, and so was he. It turned out that they had disagreements just because they were
too considerate towards each other.
It was a little ridiculous, but also heartwarming.
Shu Tian softened her voice. "I was afraid that it would be inconvenient for you..."
"I know." Li Han lowered his head and gave a light kiss on her pink lips. The sound of the kiss made
her blush. He lowered his voice and whispered in her ear with a sexy and hoarse voice, "Except
making love with you, nothing is inconvenient."
Shu Tian stared at him in surprise and stuttered. "What are you, you, you, what are you talking about?"
She pushed the man in front of her away forcefully, but Li Han did not stop her. He took a step back
cooperatively and watched her run away with a red face and neck, like a cute elk.
The fragrance of the woman's body seemed to still linger in his nose. Li Han looked down at his
erecting lower part, and helplessly held his forehead. Was it...too sensitive?

Shu Tian trotted downstairs. Coincidentally, Nanny Li took out the meals. She specially cooked the
brown rice instead of the white rice, which was good for health.
Shu Tian was about to help her to get chopsticks and spoons from the kitchen, but Nanny Li quickly
stopped her. "I'll do it by myself. Miss Shu, you don't have to help me."
"It's okay. Your hands are full. It's nothing."
"No...This is what I should do. How can I make you do it?" Nanny Li took the cutlery from her hand and
placed them on the table in order. "Mr. Li will not be pleased if he sees you do it."
Shu Tian could understand Nanny Li's teasing gaze and awkwardly raised her hand to tidy her hair. "It's
okay. I used to do all the housework at home. Nanny Li, you don't have to be too nervous here. I don't
care about who is the employer or who is the employee here. It is fate that links us together and draws
you to work here."
Li Han came downstairs and just hear her words. He was not surprised at all. Shu Tian was always
kind so she would never make things difficult for others.
It was because of her kindness that he was deeply attracted to her.
Li Han changed into comfortable leisurewear, and Nanny Li pulled out a chair for him, "Mr. Li, dinner is
ready. You can eat before it gets cold."
Compared to Shu Tian, Li Han was not so approachable. He nodded slightly to hear her.
The two of them sat down. Li Han did not have the habit of eating too much, and Shu Tian almost
gobbled it up. Apart from the sound of the spoon touching the bowl, almost no one spoke during the
meal.
Perhaps it was because the dining room was so quiet that Li Han was not used to it. He looked
sideways at the woman who was eating and his eyes were full of tenderness. "Do you like it?"
"Amazing! It tastes better than my mom's cooking." Although Ye Lihua's cooking was delicious, it still
was inferior when being compared to Nanny Li's cooking.
Li Han curled his lips. "As long as you like it."
Shu Tian caught a glimpse of the soup bowl in his hand that was empty. She reached out and scooped
up the crucian carp soup for him. "Drink some. It's good for your health."
As she spoke, she took off the drumstick and put it into his bowl. "One for you."
Li Han looked at the steaming drumstick on the plate and recalled the scene where someone picked up
a drumstick for him when he was still six or seven years old. At that time, he was the only child in the
family and his parent's marriage had not completely broken down. During the holidays, families would
always leave the drumstick to him. Unfortunately, everything changed later on. He was never treated in
this way again.
Shu Tian noticed that he was staring at the drumstick in a daze. She was about to say something, but Contentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDrâ/ma.O(r)g!
she sensitively understood the trace of sadness behind his gaze. She felt a little miserable for a
moment. So she deliberately livened up the atmosphere and teased him."Are you moved by it? I will
keep the drumstick to myself but you are an exception as you're a patient."
Li Han came to his senses and put the drumstick into his mouth with chopsticks. The whole chicken
was well stewed. The meat in his mouth was soft and sweet, tasteful but not greasy. "Not bad."
It was rare for him to praise the others. Shu Tian said to Nanny Li, "You are the first one who can win
his compliment."
"Really? Then I'm so honored!" Nanny Li felt a strong sense of accomplishment when hearing what she
had said.
It was such a pleasant dinner that Shu Tian didn't stop eating. She ate almost half of the four dishes
and drank a bowl of soup. She was so full that she even couldn't walk and lie on the sofa.
Li Han took a cup of warm water from the kitchen and gave it to her. She quickly waved her hand. "No,
thanks. I can't drink another mouthful."
"Come on. It's good for digestion. I have something to do later." He kept asking her to drink some and
handed her the glass.
Shu Tian thought that it was impossible for her to refuse, so she took a sip perfunctorily. She felt so full
that the food seemed to be piled up and stuff her throat. "What're you going to do later?"
It was almost eight o'clock. Was he going out?
Li Han's eyes met her blank gaze. Her deep black eyes seemed to be filled with countless stars,
shining brightly. He stared at Shu Tian but did not say anything. The emotions in his eyes became more
and more intense.
Shu Tian suddenly felt the cup she was holding a little hot. She seemed to understand what he meant
from his eyes.
