"Li Ke already has a job at Fengchen Villa but still wants to start his own business. He's quite ambitious."

Yang Xi hummed, "I think Qingqing's love affair with Yue Lao has come back again."

"You can't say she's addicted to being a matchmaker. It's Jun Li's actions that make people think the wrong thing. He and Li Ke had no previous connection, and he didn't even know her, but he easily brought Li Ke back to Fengchen Villa. Anyone would think the wrong thing."

Fengchen Villa is not a vegetable market, you can stroll around it anytime and anywhere.

Whenever the men of the Jun family bring a young woman home, they are basically targeting that woman.

It depends on whether they admit it or not.

Yang Xi smiled and said, "That's true. Qingqing's life is very lively, unlike me who is so bored. Your brothers and sisters are also unmarried, but as the eldest sister-in-law, I can't help them get married."

"Don't worry about them. As long as our family of three lives happily, that's all that matters. Matchmaking also carries risks. If someone's relationship isn't going well, or if they're bullied or cheated, they'll blame you for it. Mu Qing isn't deliberately matching people, she's just adding fuel to the fire."

Yang Xi thought about it and agreed. As for her, it would be better for her to just take a look.

"Let's have dinner at my mother's house before going back."

"You have the final say. You can eat wherever you want. The only thing is, we didn't bring our son. When we walked in, your mother asked where her grandson was. We said we didn't, and her face immediately became long. She asked why we came without our child."

Yang Xi: “…”

Grandparents are close to each other.

Her parents and grandfather are all like this. Since she gave birth to a son, every time she goes back to her parents' home, if she doesn't bring her son with her, she will be scolded and asked why she goes back without her child.

The couple was left in a state of confusion.

"I've already had lunch at my mom's house. She's already scolded me. She won't scold you again."

Ouyang Yu breathed a sigh of relief.

Her son loves to cry, and sometimes Yang Xi gets annoyed by his crying, so she will leave him to be taken care of by his parents and a nanny, and she will hide back in her parents' home to get some peace and quiet. As a result, she is scolded by her parents' family for not bringing the child back to her parents' home.

After the young couple left, Li Ke walked into the coffee shop.

"Madam, I'm sorry to have kept you waiting."

Li Ke walked to Mu Qing and said apologetically.

Mu Qing said gently: "It's okay, why are you back so soon?"

She asked Li Ke to sit down.

Li Ke sat down opposite her and said in a low voice, "We were followed. To be more precise, it was me, Brother Qiang, who was being followed."

Mu Qing nodded. "That's normal. They only promised not to harass you in person anymore. They'll definitely keep watching you, unless your father pays off all his debts. But judging by his current situation, it will probably take him a few years to pay it off."

Unless Li Yongtai wins millions every time he buys lottery tickets, he can pay off his debts quickly.

The debt owed by the Li family is about 60 to 70 million. It would have been difficult for the previous Li family to pay it back, let alone the current Li family.

"They didn't show up?"

"Not really."

"Even if they keep their word, you don't have to worry about them. Just do whatever you want."

Li Ke felt relieved. She was afraid that Mu Qing and others would be implicated because of her own affairs.

She nodded gratefully.

In the following days, Li Ke completed his work in the morning and went out to inspect the market in the afternoon, looking for suitable stores. He was busy every day.

In the blink of an eye, it was the day to accompany Jun Li to the Lu family to attend the engagement banquet of the fourth young master Lu. If Jun Li had not called her at noon and asked her to be ready at six in the evening and take her to the Lu family after he got home, Li Ke would have forgotten about it.

After finishing the call with Jun Li, Li Ke hurriedly borrowed a car from Aunt Wan and went out to rent an evening dress.

Jun Li asked her to rent an evening dress in advance and let him take a look. He was busy, so he didn't return to the villa after saying that. Li Ke was also busy with her own things and ignored it. At this moment, she went to rent an evening dress at the last minute.

As for matching jewelry, she could just wear her pearl necklace.

Li Ke rented a dress at a bridal shop. When she came out of the shop with the rented dress, she heard a familiar shouting voice.

"Li Ke, Miss Li, are you here to look at wedding gowns, or to rent a dress?"

A woman of about the same age as Li Ke was wearing a long silver skirt, the hem of which swayed as she walked, looking extremely elegant.

She was covered in jewels, looking very dignified. She was holding a man's arm and walking towards Li Ke while shouting sarcasm.

The other vehicle was parked on the opposite street. It was a sports car with a red body.

There are no high-end shops nearby. The other party came over probably because he saw Li Ke and did it on purpose.

Li Ke wanted to ignore the other party and get into the car directly.

The other person rushed forward a few steps to block Li Ke's movement to get into the car, and said unhappily: "Li Ke, what's your attitude? Given your family's current situation, I was willing to call you out in the street. I was already giving you face, but you actually ignored me."

"Show me what's in your bag."

The woman reached out to grab Li Ke's bag. Li Ke slapped her hand away, which made her even angrier. She rushed over, hugged Li Ke, and said to the man, "Jiang Yang, help me grab her bag."

The man named Jiang Yang frowned, looked at Li Ke twice, and helped his girlfriend snatch the bag from Li Ke's hand.

"Ellie, let me go!"

Li Ke pushed his former friend away with force.

Ellie used to be her best friend, and their family backgrounds were similar. She used to trust Ellie very much and would tell her everything. She thought that their friendship would be like that of Mu Qing and Yang Xi, which would remain unchanged through all the ups and downs.

Who knew that after her Li family went bankrupt, Ellie immediately cut off all ties with her.

Just break off the relationship. She is no longer the eldest daughter of the Li family and has left Ellie's circle. It would be fine if they didn't have any contact. But after Ellie broke off the relationship with her, she also snatched away Jiang Yang, who had just confirmed her relationship.

This was a big blow to Li Ke.

It’s not that she loves Jiang Yang so much, but what Ai Li did makes her sad.

She and Jiang Yang had just confirmed their relationship, and before they even held hands, Ai Li snatched Jiang Yang away.

Li Ke knew that Jiang Yang would be snatched away by Ali so easily. Firstly, as Ali said, she and Jiang Yang had already fallen in love with each other. Secondly, Jiang Yang knew that her family was bankrupt and was afraid of being dragged down. So, Ali just beckoned her finger and Jiang Yang pounced on her.

Afterwards, Li Ke blocked all contact information of Ai Li and Jiang Yang, planning to never have any contact with them again in his life, but he didn't expect to meet them on the street.

Ai Li let go of Li Ke, snatched the bag from Jiang Yang, and took out the dress Li Ke had rented. After taking a look, she sarcastically said to Li Ke, "Dress? Miss Li, do you still have a chance to wear a dress? Oh, I see. You want to rent a dress to trick some rich second-generation guy, let them support you, and then help your family pay off their debts, right?"

"However, this dress is not suitable for Miss Li. It is too dirty."

As she said this, she threw the dress to the ground and stomped on it.
