Chapter 228 I Miss You

Li Mo guessed it from Liu Hongmei's tone.

Liu Hongmei nodded. "That man is much older than her. Tingting said he has two sons and a daughter."

Su Li frowned slightly. She had never thought that Shao Tingting would take such a path. She was hypocritical and could not endure hardship. After the incident at home, she took away the little money she had.

She doesn't even care about her mother. Such a woman is destined to have no good ending.

"We choose our own path. We just need to walk our own path and not worry about others."

Li Mo nodded and agreed, "Liu Hongmei, I now feel that you are not that annoying. Don't worry, I will recommend my colleagues to buy clothes and patronize your store in the future."

Liu Hongmei smiled and said, "Just thank your old classmate. I'll give the biggest discount to everyone you bring."

Xu Mingzhe listened to the conversation of the three women but couldn't get a word in. He sat aside and looked at Li Mo from time to time.

Liu Hongmei suddenly spoke up, "Doctor Xu, thank you. I was so grateful for your care during my time in the hospital."

"Don't say that. I didn't do anything."

"Your equal treatment has prevented me from being scolded or beaten. You haven't even looked down on me because of my relationship with Su Li. On the contrary, you've even intentionally stopped Su Li, fearing she'd cause me trouble. I know all of this. Thank you, you're a good doctor."

Xu Mingzhe felt a little embarrassed by the sudden long list of thanks. He looked at Li Mo and smiled, "If you hadn't told me, I wouldn't have known how kind I was."

Li Mo glanced at him and sneered, "Show off!"

…

On the other side, Fu Jinzhou had just submitted a report to his unit and had a long talk with his leader before coming out.

As he reached the door, Lin Aijun called him.

"Jinzhou, are you free tonight? Let's have dinner together?"

When Lin Aijun heard Lin Wanyi say that he was back, he hurried over.

Fu Jinzhou knew what Lin Aijun wanted to ask.

"good."

Fu Jinzhou did not refuse.

The two of them arrived at the private room of the hotel. Lin Aijun looked at Fu Jinzhou with a complicated look in his eyes.

"Jinzhou, Wanyi is acting crazy. I've already told her off when I got back. Don't mind it."

Fu Jinzhou pursed his lips and said calmly, "Uncle Lin, I promised you that I would not hurt her or tell anyone about her life story. But please also try to persuade her. You can't force things in your relationship."

"I know. Don't worry, I will persuade her. That Su Li..."

Lin Aijun considered his words carefully, not knowing how to start.

Fu Jinzhou did not hide it and nodded.

"Uncle Lin has never been the one to influence the relationship between Wanyi and me. On the contrary, it has always been Wanyi who has influenced us. I have liked Su Li for many years, and even though she was married, I still can't accept someone else."

"You misunderstood, Jinzhou."

Lin Aijun interrupted Fu Jinzhou.

"I don't mean to interfere in your affairs with Su Li, I just..."

Lin Aijun sighed, his eyes becoming a little blurry.

"I just felt that Su Li's features resembled those of my deceased sister. I thought about it for a long time, so I wanted to ask you about her situation."

Fu Jinzhou was stunned, then he understood what Lin Aijun meant.

Is he suspecting that Su Li is his biological daughter?

"Uncle Lin, this is impossible."

Fu Jinzhou said firmly.

"Su Li is the Su family's treasure. From childhood to adulthood, the Su family has doted on her. She can't be an adopted child."

Lin Aijun looked at Fu Jinzhou, a hint of disappointment flashing in his eyes.

But he didn't give up.

"Jinzhou, can you ask for me, what if?"

Fu Jinzhou was silent. How could Su Li be picked up by the Su family? Their family valued Su Li more than Su Mingde.

There is no such possibility!

"Uncle Lin, don't overthink it. Su Li can't be your daughter."

Fu Jinzhou emphasized again.

"I've already assigned someone to investigate in Pingjiang. It'll take time, so don't worry."

Lin Aijun didn't say anything else, but just silently picked up the wine glass and took a sip.

Fu Jinzhou looked at him with mixed feelings.

Finally, the two talked about work.

"Jinzhou, you want to revitalize the cement factory, but you can't rely on the provincial party committee. If you insist on doing this, I can tell you clearly that you need to set up your own sales team."

“Sales team?”

Fu Jinzhou was a little excited. "Uncle Lin, I've been thinking about this these days. Could you please tell me in detail?"

Lin Aijun took a sip of his wine. "This is also the experience I summarized from my recent overseas investigation. The factory's sales department is too single-minded and too traditional. You need to open up your thinking and plan your sales. Tomorrow I can introduce you to a friend who is a Hong Kong businessman. You can learn about his company's management and operation model."

Lin Aijun's words made Fu Jinzhou suddenly realize that if he wanted to sell his products nationwide, he had to plan a nationwide sales plan, or at least let people know about the Qixian Cement brand.

Fu Jinzhou didn't eat much during the meal and just listened to Lin Aijun's analysis.

In the end, Fu Jinzhou felt like there was a fire in his heart, which was the openness after confusion.

It was already late when I said goodbye to Lin Aijun. I asked Kang Ping to drive to Li Mo's place, but he saw that the lights were off. He stood downstairs for a long time before leaving.

The next day, Su Li still did not go out and stayed at home to revise the manuscript.

She knew that Fu Jinzhou was under a lot of pressure, and on the way back, Fu Jinzhou also told her that there would be a lot of things to do.

So after yesterday's intense anticipation, she was much calmer today.

The manuscript has been delayed for so long, and it's easy to explain to Editor-in-Chief Zhou, but she feels guilty about Professor Qi's earnest hope.

She must revise the manuscript as soon as possible, so that she might have more time to visit him in Qi County.

Throughout the day, Su Li did not leave the room except for eating.

Li Mo was quite confused when she saw her suddenly revising the manuscript so calmly.

"Why don't you miss your Mr. Fu?"

Facing Li Mo's teasing, Su Li smiled and said, "I do, but missing him can be turned into motivation. I have to finish this revision as soon as possible, and then give him all my remaining vacation time."

Li Mo got goosebumps when she heard this, "Su Li, you are hopeless."

Su Li curved her lips and smiled without saying a word.

It was not until the evening that Kang Ping came up and knocked on the door.

Li Mo saw Kang Ping with sweat on his forehead and laughed, "Are you robbing me this late at night? Why are you knocking so hard?"

"Sister Mo, excuse me, I'm looking for Sister Su."

Li Mo heard Kang Ping's voice coming out of the room, "What happened?"

"Sister Su, go check on Brother Fu. He's drunk and insists on seeing you."

Li Mo shook her head after hearing this. "I used to think Fu Jinzhou was different, a bit otherworldly, but I never thought he'd become so vulgar one day."

Su Li went back to her room to change her clothes, told Li Mo not to wait for him, and followed Kang Ping downstairs.

Fu Jinzhou sat motionless in the car, his expression still as cold and serious as usual.

"Kangping, this is fine, why did you lie to me?"

Kang Ping felt wronged and quickly explained, "Sister Su, how dare I lie to you. Brother Fu is different when he's drunk. He doesn't understand or make a fuss when he's drunk. He's just like usual when he doesn't talk. If you don't believe me, just say a few words to him."

Su Li was half-believing and half-doubting, and slowly approached him. Seeing that the man was sitting there still, she turned her head and looked at Kang Ping.

Kang Ping nodded helplessly.

"Fu Jinzhou, what are you doing?"

"I missed you!"
