Chapter 59 Why did he start talking back?
Even though I didn't scold them or speak harshly, just in a calm and steady tone, the two girls were both quite dejected.
Li Ying kept poking at Jing Ge.
Jingge remained silent.
You're afraid of your uncle, but I'm not?
One of them had to take responsibility, so Jingge had no choice but to muster his courage and say, "Wasn't it you who taught me to flip the table?"
“Very good,” Li Mushi looked at her, “I’ll teach you how to flip the table over yourself?”
Jing Ge's voice softened: "What exactly do you want?"
Li Mushi: "Analyze it yourself."
Jing Ge subtly bristled: "No."
Li Ying shuddered violently.
Why are you talking back?
“I don’t think we did anything wrong,” Jing Ge said stubbornly. “They deliberately blocked our way and deliberately picked a fight. Should we let Yingying get beaten up for nothing? Why should I apologize to them? If we’re going to say we were wrong, should we not have gone out? If that’s the case, then our parents shouldn’t have given birth to us, and our grandparents shouldn’t have given birth to our parents… Who knew Officer Liu would contact you?”
Li Mushi's eyes were sharp, and a sense of oppression washed over him: "Should we assess the opponent's strength before choosing a counterattack method?"
Jing Ge suddenly became furious: "No!"
"..." Li Mushi choked, "Speak properly, don't let your emotions get in the way."
Jing Ge was disheartened: "Uncle shouldn't scold the children before meals."
Li Mushi: "I don't have time after dinner."
Jing Ge pleaded, "Let's eat first. When you have time, just send me a message to scold me, and I'll scold Yingying for you."
Li Ying nodded quickly.
Li Mushi replied indifferently, "She has her parents to discipline her."
Li Ying panicked: "No, Uncle!!! The police officer scolded them, you scolded them, and now my parents are going to scold them too??"
Li Mushi: "Who caused this trouble?"
Jingge interjected, "Those four."
"..." Li Mushi had a headache. "Help her again..."
Jingge's old habit of wanting to cry as soon as she saw him almost flared up again: "Uncle, you haven't seen me for so long, don't you have anything else to say?"
Li Mushi: "."
After a moment, he seemed to relent, with a hint of helplessness: "Let's eat."
Jing Ge breathed a sigh of relief; he had finally escaped unscathed.
Li Ying was a little dumbfounded. It just passed like that? It was even more effective than her parents pleading for her.
When the pizza was served, Jing Ge and Li Ying put on disposable gloves and happily ate, completely forgetting about what had happened that day.
The two girls didn't learn their lesson at all. Li Mushi's temples throbbed with pain, and his indifferent nature, for some inexplicable reason, finally led him to say, "Don't fight with the other party when there are men around."
The pizza that Jingge was about to put in his mouth suddenly lost its flavor.
"You should complete the training in one go."
If someone suddenly says something like that, who would have an appetite?
Li Mushi asked seriously, "Then have you remembered?"
Jing Ge remained silent.
Li Mushi's nerves throbbed with pain: "You can give me your phone number."
What a joke! Preferring to go to jail, showing no regard for the consequences!
Jingge remained silent.
Whoever calls him, we should keep our distance.
After a few seconds of silence, the girl neither spoke nor ate, looking like a wilted eggplant. Li Mushi felt a sense of helplessness, not knowing where to begin: "Eat, eat."
Jingge didn't believe him: "Are you really done training?"
Li Mushi angrily took a sip of water.
Jingge glanced at him and stammered, "I forgot to order one. Could I add another order of black truffle cheese fries?"
Li Ying immediately followed up, "Can I order a violin service?"
"Fries, please," Li Mushi said calmly. "What kind of service is this violin? Is it for cutting steaks with the strings, or for playing children with the strings?"
"..." Li Ying wanted to explode, "Uncle, you're being unfair!"
Li Mushi was displeased: "Indulging in extravagance and debauchery."
Li Ying: "?"
Jingge coaxed her, "It means children can't drink alcohol."
Li Ying: "??"
"Order something to eat," Jingge thought, adding a juice. "Uncle will definitely agree."
Purely for pleasure, and at such a young age, how could Li Mushi, with his dogmatic and rigid nature, possibly tolerate it?
Li Ying pouted, adding food to her plate while muttering, "Uncle, you earn so much money, how can you possibly eat it all? Do you have any fun besides working...?"
Jingge kicked her.
If you cause trouble again, she won't help you.
Li Ying silently shut her mouth, but after a moment, she couldn't help but add, "Is it all for Auntie to spend? If you say that, my sister and I will be jealous."
Jing Ge immediately said, "I'm not jealous!"
Don't mess with it.
Don't pull her.
Li Mushi's fingertips paused slightly, almost imperceptibly.
Li Ying ordered a lava cake for herself, but it was added to the menu one second and removed the next.
Li Ying was dazed: "I definitely added it, how come it's gone?"
The man opposite remained expressionless: "I deleted it."
"...Why?"
"I want to delete it."
"Uncle!" Li Ying kicked her legs anxiously, "How could you do this? You're biased, you're so biased! You won't even let me eat the cake!"
Jing Ge was even more confused; how did these two start arguing?
Li Mushi: "Go home and eat at your parents' house. I can only provide you with enough to eat; it's not my responsibility to make sure you eat well."
Li Ying's cheeks puffed out high.
So, it's his responsibility to make sure his sister eats well?
He wouldn't even acknowledge that he was biased!
Jingge had pleaded for her many times, and she didn't dare say anything more about a piece of cake.
He coaxed her softly, "I'll share half of the fries with you."
“Sister,” Li Ying said pitifully, “Uncle is like this. Once he finds a wife, he probably won’t even buy us fries anymore.”
Jing Ge pursed her lips: "Yeah, it's okay, I'll buy it for you."
The waiter came over to serve the food.
Amidst the wisps of steam rising into the air and the sizzling sound of steak, the atmosphere subtly cooled down amidst the seemingly lively scene.
During the meal, Li Mushi's phone rang several times, but he didn't answer. He has always been a serious person; when he's working, he's working, and when he's eating, he's eating.
They should not be confused.
Jingge wanted to pay the bill; she remembered that the last time she left the official residence, she had promised to treat him.
But Li Mushi glanced at her and made Jing Ge stop what he was doing; he paid the money.
As they were leaving, Li Mushi took the coat from the waiter, but Jing Ge didn't take it anymore: "There's a shopping mall here, Uncle, you take Yingying back first. I'll buy some clothes and take a taxi back to the company."
Li Ying was unwilling: "I want to follow you."
Jing Ge patiently said, "Then I'll have to take a taxi to send you off, and then take another taxi back to the company, which will cost an extra hundred yuan in fare."
"......"
Li Mushi didn't say anything and left with Li Ying.
As the car drove out of the parking lot, Jing Ge stood by the roadside to see them off.
In the rearview mirror, the girl's thin and frail body stood alone and forlorn in the cold wind.
Li Mushi glanced at it, then suddenly looked away and pulled the car over to the side of the road.
“The password is six sixes,” Li Mushi handed a card to Li Ying in the back row and said calmly, “Let’s go shopping.”
Li Ying: "?"
Li Mushi: "Call me when you're done shopping, and I'll have the driver pick you up."
Li Ying asked in disbelief, "Can I spend money however I want?"
Li Mushi said calmly, "Your older sister has been taking care of you for half a day. Don't just think about yourself, remember to invite her back."
