Chapter 84 Treat her like my wife and respect her.

Qin Xuan was starting to admire Li Mai.

Zhou Songyan dared to pursue her; he's got guts.

However, at that time, Lao Zhou concealed his identity, and Li Mai did not know that he was the heir of the Beijing circle.

If I knew, haha...

That should have been the end of it.

Zhou Songyan looked embarrassed: "I wouldn't say that. I was also interested in her, which is why she was able to pursue me."

Peng Zixu smiled and said, "We have feelings for each other, so it was a natural progression."

Qin Xuan loved gossiping about Zhou Songyan, so he boldly leaned closer and put his arm around her shoulder: "Tell us, how did Li Mai pursue you?"

Zhou Songyan pushed him away: "Why should I tell you about our affairs?"

Qin Xuan pouted: "Fine, don't tell me then. I'll teach you a few tricks for pursuing someone."

Zhou Songyan remained silent.

Qin Xuan: "Let me tell you, women all love romance. Send me flowers every day, right to her office, so everyone will envy her."

"Go pick her up from get off work, in your coolest car."

"Go shopping with her, buy her lots of things. Women love pretty clothes and bags, so take her shopping."

"If she's having dinner with friends, you pay the bill and give them a bottle of expensive wine as a gift."

...

Qin Xuan rattled off a whole bunch of ideas on how to woo girls.

"Old Zhou, did you learn something?"

Zhou Songyan rolled her eyes at him: "What's so special about your ideas? They're everywhere online."

"Alright, you guys can go now, I need to work."

Qin Xuan: "..."

Peng Zixu smiled and pulled Qin Xuan away.

After they came out, the two ran into Sun Yuanjie.

Peng Zixu asked, "Secretary Sun, who posted about Li Mai online?"

"Guan Qing."

"What? It's her?"

Qin Xuan called out.

"I used to think highly of her, but this woman is quite scheming."

Sun Yuanjie: "She has been dismissed by Rongzheng Group."

"Good job resigning. This kind of scourge cannot be allowed to stay."

Peng Zixu nudged him: "Now you know how bad your taste is, right?"

"Also, please go and clean your eyes. Stop dating those shady women and find a reliable girlfriend."

Qin Xuan raised an eyebrow: "You don't understand. By the way, what's the deal with you and Li Mai's friend, You Huan?"

I won't tell you.

Qin Xuan: "..."

Zhou Songyan called Sun Yuanjie in: "Have someone transfer my house on Qingshui Road to Li Mai's name, and also have someone clean it up and add what needs to be added."

"The master bedroom should be decorated to be cozy, and we should also set up a children's room, the kind that boys like."

Sun Yuanjie nodded in agreement.

No need to ask, this is prepared for Miss Li.

Mr. Zhou is so devoted; he knows the other party has a son, yet he still treats her so well.

What a devoted lover!

Love-struck!

"Go and get it done quickly. Also, make sure Li Mai moves in."

Sun Yuanjie acknowledged and left.

...

After taking Chengcheng out for a big meal, Grandma Zhou took him out to play for a while before finally sending him home.

Li Mai helped Grandma Zhou sit down on the sofa: "Grandma, you must be exhausted."

Taking care of children is no easy task.

Grandma Zhou rubbed her legs: "It's alright, Chengcheng is very well-behaved and even takes care of me."

Her great-grandson was well cared for by Li Mai; unlike boys his age, he didn't run around wildly and was impossible to catch.

Chengcheng stayed by her side the whole time, and would even help her up the steps.

Li Mai placed her hand on Grandma Zhou's leg: "Let me do it."

Li Mai gently massaged Grandma Zhou's legs.

Grandma Zhou was so moved she almost cried.

Grandma Zhou stayed in the Heyun residential area until after dinner before going home.

They were reluctant to leave.

"Granddaughter-in-law, Chengcheng, see you tomorrow."

Li Mai was worried, so she escorted her downstairs and watched her get into the car.

...

When Old Mrs. Zhou returned to the Zhou family's old house, everyone except Zhou Jingwen was back.

Zhou Jingtian went over and helped her into the house: "Mom, why are you only coming back now? We were so worried about you."

Grandma Zhou remained unfazed: "If it weren't inappropriate, I would have liked to live directly at my granddaughter-in-law's house and stay with my great-grandson."

"Mom, you only care about yourself and don't care whether I live or die."

Zhou Jingtian harbored some resentment.

He was so anxious all day that he couldn't concentrate on his work.

Grandma Zhou sat down on the sofa.

Zhou Qianlian hurriedly asked, "Mom, is that child really Songyan's? Have you figured it out? Has a paternity test been done?"

Grandma Zhou's face darkened: "She looks so much like Songyan, and she still needs to do it!"

"Just in case, these days many girls will do anything to marry into a wealthy family, so we have to be careful."

Grandma Zhou: "That child is of course from our Zhou family. You may not be clear-headed, but I am very clear-headed. You are not allowed to doubt my great-grandson's identity from now on!"

Zhou Qianlian was about to say something when Zhang Boxiong tugged at her arm.

Zhou Qianlian: "Okay, let's not talk about the child for now. Mom, are you planning to let Songyan marry that woman?"

Grandma Zhou: "I think Li Mai didn't want to marry Song Yan at all."

"Impossible? She's faking it, isn't she? Did she make demands on Songyan? I've seen plenty of people like that. Just because she gave birth to a son, she wants to make exorbitant demands and ask for a huge sum of money. Mom, do you think she wants money, a house, or shares in Rongzheng Group?"

Grandma Zhou was furious, glaring at Zhou Qianlian: "How could I have raised such a materialistic daughter like you? Money, money, money! Do you think other people are like you, only caring about money? Li Mai didn't even mention any conditions!"

"I'd love for her to bring it up. Whatever her conditions are, I'll agree to them."

Zhou Qianlian: "Look, look, Mom, you've been completely taken in by Li Mai. She's just waiting for you to rush over and give her things."

Grandma Zhou clutched her chest: "I don't want to talk to you, you're going to drive me crazy."

Zhang Junzheng pulled his mother back: "Mom, please say less. I've met Li Mai, she's a nice girl, not like what you're saying."

Zhang Jingran: "That's right, Mom. Li Mai even saved Grandma's life. You've never even met her, so don't say that."

Zhou Qianlian said with a dark face, "I'm doing this for your cousin's own good."

“Aunt, I don’t want to hear anything bad about Li Mai from you.”

Zhou Songyan stepped in, her face icy cold.

Zhang Boxiong grabbed his wife: "I told you to shut up."

Zhou Qianlian: "My considerations are understandable. After all, the Zhou family is large and powerful, so Songyan's wife must be a good match and outstanding enough."

“If someone from a humble background like Li Mai suddenly has a child, anyone would think too much.”

Zhou Songyan glanced at everyone: "Although Li Mai has not agreed to reunite with me, I hope you will treat her with the respect due to my wife."

"I don't want to hear those kinds of things again, or don't blame me for turning hostile."

Zhang Junzheng, ever the quick-witted one, asked with a grin, "Cousin, when are you bringing your wife home for dinner?"

Zhang Jingran was also very perceptive: "Cousin, give my WeChat to your wife, I'll ask her to go shopping another day."

Zhou Songyan's complexion improved slightly as she looked at Zhang Junzheng.

"I will bring her back, in the next few days."

He then looked at Zhang Jingran and said, "You can add her yourself later."

Zhang Jingran: "Okay!"

Zhou Qianlian glared at her two children.

Zhou Jingtian, who had been silent, finally spoke up and asked, "Songyan, you and Li Mai have known each other for a long time?"
