Chapter 529 Celestial Powder

Zeng Li put down her phone, her face beaming with joy, but as soon as she turned around, she was startled by her younger sister. Oh no... that brat must have heard her!

"Xiaoyu, why didn't you knock? When did you come in?"

Zeng Yu sat down next to her older sister with a grin.

"I followed you in as soon as you came in. You were so engrossed in your phone call that you didn't even hear me. Oh dear, bye-bye. Tsk, sis, you didn't even tell me you have a boyfriend. Really."

Zeng Li rolled her eyes: "Why would I tell you about my boyfriend? You little brat, are you the older sister or am I the older sister?"

"If that's what you're saying, Mom!!!"

Zeng Li quickly covered Zeng Yu's mouth, but Zeng's mother had already walked in. Looking at her two daughters, she asked, "What's wrong? What are you doing?"

"Ugh, ugh, ugh..." Zeng Yu forcefully pried Zeng Li's hands open.

"Mom, my sister's dating!!!"

Upon hearing this, Zeng Ma's face lit up with surprise and delight.

"Are you dating? What's your name? Where are you from? What do you do? What do you look like? Do you have a picture? How long have you been dating, Pear? When are you going to bring her home to meet Mom? Are you planning to get married soon???"

Zeng Li.......

"Mom, you have so many questions, which one should I answer first?"

Then he glared at Zeng Yu fiercely: "You little gossip, I've spoiled you for nothing."

Zeng Yu looked at her mother with a wronged expression: "Mom, my sister said I'm a gossip."

Zeng's mother completely ignored Zeng Yu and paid her no attention; she was only concerned about her eldest daughter's boyfriend.

“Say them one by one.”

Zeng Li took a deep breath; it was bound to happen sooner or later anyway.

“He’s my boss. He’ll be 20 this year after the New Year. He’s successful in his career and very handsome. We’ve been dating for a few months.”

That's all?

Zeng Li nodded: "No, that's all."

Zeng's mother was speechless: "What are you talking about? Your boss? 20 years old??? You're 5 years older than him??? Very handsome? Didn't you say you don't like handsome men, but prefer talented ones?"

"So what if he's 5 years older? It's popular for older women to date younger men these days. They're all young and energetic, and in great shape."

Mother Zeng? What are you talking about?

Zeng Yu does know a bit; even if she hasn't eaten pork, she's seen pigs run.

Zeng's mother was speechless: "Daughter, you're five years older than me, at your age..."

"So what? Your daughter is so beautiful. So what if I'm 5 years older? Anyway, I'm determined to marry him."

"You said he's your boss, the one from Longteng Media?"

Zeng Li nodded: "Yes."

Zeng's mother must have been very concerned about her daughter's career, and she had done a lot of research on Longteng Media. She had also read many reports in the newspapers and knew that Longteng Media was a large and powerful company, and that Zhang Yimou was signed with it, so the man's financial strength was definitely not an issue.

Don't even mention that Zeng's mother was mercenary; what mother doesn't want her daughter to marry well?

But Zeng's mother was afraid her daughter would be scammed, so she became a boss...

“Daughter, he…”

Zeng Li held her mother's hand and said, "Oh, we get along very well. He loves me and cherishes me."

"Daughter, men's words are deceitful. They won't cherish what they have. Don't get too involved. I'm just afraid of such a big boss, and he's in the entertainment industry. There must be a lot of girls..."

Zeng Li was secretly heartbroken... Mom, you guessed right!

But my daughter, I already consider him my knee, I've given him my heart, I love him no matter what.

"Mom, no, he loves me very much. There are indeed a lot of bad things in this circle, but you have to trust your daughter. By the way, he also said he was planning to come and see you."

Upon hearing this, Zeng's mother nodded, feeling slightly relieved. Since they were willing to come and see her, they must at least value their daughter.

"Wow, sister, did you marry into a wealthy family?"

Zeng Li rolled her eyes at Zeng Yu: "What nonsense are you talking about?"

"That's what they say on TV and in the newspapers: beautiful female celebrities marrying into wealthy families. Isn't that a common occurrence?"

"By the way, sis, you've become really popular lately. A lot of my classmates are your fans. My classmate is coming over to visit later, so change your clothes and dress up nicely. Don't embarrass me, okay?"

Zeng Li?

Upon hearing this, Zeng's mother clapped her hands.

"Yes, yes, our Da Mei is a big star now. Your uncle, aunt, and your great-uncle will all be coming to see you, the big star. Daughter, hurry up and change your clothes."

Zeng Li...

"Mom, I'm doing just fine."

"Hey sis, look at what you're wearing, pajamas and pajama pants. You're not even wearing makeup. I know you're naturally beautiful, but I finally have a celebrity sister, so please give me some face, please!" Zeng Yu hugged Zeng Li's arm, widened her eyes, and pleaded in a cute and coquettish manner.

"I won't wear it."

"Please, please, my dear sister, you don't want your little sister to lose face at school, do you?"

"Whether you have face or not is none of my business," Zeng Li said, glancing sideways. "Let you be a gossip."

"Sister, sister, my dear sister!" Zeng Yu started throwing a tantrum, rolling around on the ground like a maggot.

Zeng Li was completely defeated.

"Okay, okay, honestly, this is annoying."

As soon as Zeng Yu saw that his sister had agreed, he immediately fawned over her, like a little eunuch, and took Zeng Li's hand.

"Your Majesty, please allow me to remarry."

Zeng Li giggled and laughed heartily as she watched her silly sister.

"I learned it from there."

"The TV series you acted in, Ming Dynasty, by the way, I really like Zhu Gaochi, do you know him?"
