Xia Li said her boyfriend wasn't any better than the young man who made the cake before.
Note: Boyfriend ≤ young man.
He also said that she was no worse than him.
Therefore, boyfriend is greater than or equal to young man.
Therefore, boyfriend = young man.
Xia's mother suddenly realized something, as if struck by a thunderbolt.
But this...this...this...this...this...
Wicked girl!
You're really putting your mother in a difficult position! This is such a serious matter! How could you not tell her?!
Lu Yibei also suddenly understood.
No wonder Aunt Xia was still uneasy and anxious after meeting Chairman Li.
They had met before, but had no idea that Xia Li's boyfriend was this young man!
Li Si also suddenly realized the truth.
His nervousness mainly stemmed from his speculation that "Xia Li's mother has already met me, but she still wants Bei Ge to accompany me. Is she dissatisfied with me?"
—So Xia Li didn't mention this to her mother at all!
—That's good now.
Xia Li touched her neck and chuckled.
The little girl startled everyone, and they were feeling quite pleased with themselves.
Completely unaware of the murderous aura emanating from all directions.
Xia's mother wanted to scold this unfilial child.
However, given Li Si's presence, she still needed to maintain her image as a mother and refrain from resorting to violence or abuse.
Li Si naturally shared this idea.
Similarly, since his mother was right in front of him and she hadn't said anything, Li Si didn't feel comfortable speaking up either.
Thus, Xia Tudou escaped unscathed.
—No.
--state!
Lu Yibei punched Xia Li on the head.
"You're still laughing? What are you laughing at?!"
—Great! It's Brother Bei (from the north), we're saved!
So, what kind of control does Lu Yibei have over this and that?
Xia Li immediately clutched her head, complaining angrily:
"I wanted to surprise my mom!"
Upon hearing this, Li Si was taken aback, then a smile appeared on his lips.
It turns out he was a "surprise" level surprise.
Mrs. Xia was also taken aback, then looked at the refined young man in front of her again and nodded with satisfaction.
A pleasant surprise is always better than a fright.
This young man is not just physically fit, he's practically physically fit.
Unexpectedly, the young man she had been longing for actually became Xia Li's boyfriend—Xia's mother secretly pinched the back of her hand.
The pain wasn't from a dream.
His joy was palpable.
Fate is truly wondrous.
"Alright, alright, Brother Bei, Xia Li didn't mean it," Li Si said.
"Yes, yes, what a surprise!" Xia's mother chuckled. "This girl has finally done something good... I don't think it's necessary to scold her."
Lu Yibei: ?
He became the one to stick his neck out.
So you guys ended up on this brat's side, huh?
"Oh my, it's you. This girl didn't even tell me."
Xia's mother's smile was sincere and profound; Li Si could even see the fine lines at the corners of her eyebrows. She looked at Li Si again, growing more and more fond of him: "Really, why didn't you say anything when you came that day?"
Li Si gave a helpless, bitter smile: "I didn't know you were Xia Li's mother that day..."
Xia's mother immediately looked at Lu Yibei:
"Yi Bei, that's where you're wrong!"
Li Si also said, "Yes, Brother Bei, why didn't you say so earlier?"
Xia Li nodded vigorously: "--That's right."
Lu Yibei: ? ?
He looked at the family of three, all pointing their guns at each other.
It's one thing not to give him an award for this, but to have a reason to hold a meeting about it during the debriefing?
Lu Yibei's heart sank to the ground.
He gave a disdainful smile.
This brat is not worth discussing anything with!
My girlfriend is still the best—sweet, soft, and understanding one.
He looked at his girlfriend beside him.
His girlfriend was also looking at him... at the cakes displayed in the counter beside him.
"...Abei, what did you say?"
Lu Yibei: ...
The world is cold and indifferent.
He held up the three burning incense sticks.
I bowed to Xia Li's father's memorial tablet.
Old Xia, you died young.
But at least you don't have to experience the decline of morality and the loss of traditional values in this world.
And—that despicable and treacherous man who wears glasses, is a little taller than me, but I'm not as handsome as him, is your daughter's boyfriend.
When you have time, go find him and have a good chat.
But I'm doing quite well, so you don't need to worry about me.
After Lu Yibei finished bowing, he inserted three incense sticks into the incense burner.
With the incense already burning in the stove, the memorial tablet was filled with swirling smoke.
The photo is shrouded in smoke, and Old Xia in the photo is smiling as brightly as his daughter.
——Okay.
Lu Yibei felt that Lao Xia was saying this to him.
Lu Yibei smiled as well.
On the other side of the living room.
Li Si is putting down what he is carrying.
Xia's mother complained, "You're here, why bring things? You're still in school, no need for all this formality."
"It's just some fruit," Li Si said with a smile. "It's worthless."
He always felt that he couldn't visit someone's home empty-handed on his first visit.
But bringing health supplements or alcohol would be too worldly.
Just as Xia's mother said, he was just a student.
Even if he could afford something expensive, Xia's mother might not accept it.
After careful consideration, Li Si chose the most suitable fruit—a bag of fruit, not a fruit basket.
Bulk fruits offer better value for money and don't feel cheap or overpriced.
Everyone can use it.
It's simply an essential choice for home, travel, and gift-giving.
