Chapter 317: Currying favor with the powerful
When Lin Shutang and Li Yansheng arrived at the Li family's house, the dining table was already full of people.
She looked around and found that everyone was present, more than in the previous times, and there were people from several branch families as well.
Those who are born with a silver spoon in their mouth are actually the best at currying favor with the powerful.
In the past, Li Yansheng also sat in this position, but few of these people took him seriously. Now, it has completely changed. They are more and more eager to come to him to eat and show their faces.
Just because the nature of the situation has changed, the heir Li Yansheng has gone from being a tool who could be kicked out at any time to the unshakable top leader and the real person in power.
Lin Shutang looked around again, but he didn't see the Sheng family that Li Yansheng had mentioned before. They might come after lunch.
When Li Yansheng took Lin Shutang to sit down, everyone at the table looked over.
"Yansheng is becoming more and more outstanding now, and we old guys can rest assured."
The man was about sixty years old, and his compliments were obvious, but Li Yansheng had no intention of responding, and didn't even look at him.
The man was embarrassed and his facial muscles twitched slightly, but he didn't say anything.
The other woman next to her rolled her eyes and said, "This is a talented couple, a beautiful woman. They look pleasing to the eye."
Lin Shutang didn't expect that someone would mention him. He looked over and saw the man's face clearly, then sneered silently.
This person had framed her before, yet now he could say such things. Lin Shutang didn't think she was sincere, but was just driven by interests and played along.
Lin Shutang truly thought these people were remarkable. They had just had a disagreement, yet when they sat together for their own benefit, they were able to pretend nothing had happened. She feared she would never be able to master this skill in her lifetime.
The woman's eyes were always on Li Yansheng and Lin Shutang, so even though Lin Shutang's smile didn't make any sound, she noticed it.
Thinking back to what she had said to Lin Shutang not long ago, she opened her mouth to explain, but she didn't know where to begin. It was too awkward, so in the end, she said nothing.
Most people at the table were preoccupied with their own thoughts, but Lin Shutang and Li Yansheng remained unfazed and continued to eat. After Li Yansheng finished, he didn't leave the table, his eyes fixed on Lin Shutang.
Only after seeing her put down her chopsticks did he hand her the tissue and then lead her out the door.
The people at the table watched the two holding hands after leaving the table, and their feelings were somewhat complicated. To be honest, before, not only outsiders, but even they thought that Li Yansheng was just playing around with Lin Shutang and had been waiting for the two to break up.
It was not until this time, when I saw him fighting with the Sheng family for this little girl, that I truly believed that Li Yansheng was serious about this relationship.
Lin Shutang walked in the Li family garden for more than ten minutes, then lazily leaned against Li Yansheng and said, "Let's go back. I want to sleep."
Li Yansheng tilted his head and looked at her with half-closed eyes: "Walk a little longer?"
"No, I need to sleep."
Hearing her tone that didn't allow for negotiation, Li Yansheng chuckled and said, "Okay."
The short syllables of the single word are full of doting mixed with helplessness.
The little girl's temper had gotten worse since she became pregnant. She wasn't being unreasonable, but she was a bit lazier than before. She simply didn't want to do anything she didn't like. The most obvious thing was that she didn't want to get any sun.
However, it is good for pregnant women to get some sun exposure, so in order to coax her to get some sun exposure, Li Yansheng would accompany her for a short walk outside whenever he had time.
After sending Lin Shutang into the bedroom, someone came to call Li Yansheng downstairs, saying that Li Guangsong was waiting for him in the living room.
Li Yansheng glanced down at the time on his watch, guessing that the Sheng family must have arrived, and nodded, "Okay."
Sure enough, after going downstairs, I saw the Sheng family of three in the living room.
