Although keypad phones are low-end in Lin Xiaoman's eyes, it has to be admitted that before touch screens became popular, the quality of keypad phones was excellent, and it was definitely not a legend that they could remain unbroken even if dropped a hundred times.
So, even through a trouser pocket, Li's mother still heard the conversation between the two.
"Xingxing, what's going on?"
Mother Li, who had vaguely guessed the situation, was so angry!
"Um, Mom...no, nothing..." Lin Xiaoman hesitated, looking very embarrassed.
"Nothing! I heard everything," Li's mother said angrily. "That rascal Nian Jiarui was hanging out with your friend Chen Tong, right? You're trying to piss me off to death. You're hiding it even after being bullied like this! Tell me, what's going on?"
"Mom, don't make such a fuss~~~" Lin Xiaoman dragged out her tone and acted coquettishly. Then her tone changed and became very calm. "To put it simply, Nian Jiarui and I are not interested in each other."
"My daughter has such good conditions, but he doesn't like her. He is absolutely blind!" One's own children are the best. Upon hearing this, Li's mother immediately became unhappy.
"She's not blind, her aesthetic standards are perfectly normal." If you put aside family background, any normal man would choose Chen Tong. Lin Xiaoman is very self-aware. After all, under the same circumstances, she would also choose a handsome man.
"Hmph, superficial man! Can good looks be used to make a living?" Mother Li, who had seen Shen Tong, snorted coldly.
"Yes! A pretty boy can live off his wife." Lin Xiaoman replied smoothly.
"Pfft..." Mother Li was immediately amused. "Okay, stop joking. Tell me, what do you think?"
"Mom, what else can I think about this? It's not like I can't get married. Am I still clinging to their family?"
"Indeed, my daughter is naturally the best. Don't worry, Xingxing. Mom will definitely help you find a guy who is better than that brat in every way."
"Yes, I'll trouble you, mother, to worry about my lifelong affairs."
"I'm your mom, a worrier. But..." Changing the subject, Mother Li said in an unhappy tone, "Chen Yanhua is so dishonest. The day before yesterday, when we were getting beauty treatments together, she was still promoting her son in front of me, saying how much that jerk likes you and that you two are a perfect match. Humph, that feeling is just one-sided! That little bastard Nian Jiarui is also going too far. Since he's pursuing someone else, he didn't even explain it to his parents."
"Mom, you don't know Aunt Chen yet. If he says so, will she agree? Oh, by the way, Mom, if Aunt Chen continues to promote it, just find a reason to refuse, but don't mention Chen Tong. If Aunt Chen listens to you and tries to break up the couple, Nian Jiarui might blame us. We don't interfere in other people's affairs. They are mother and son, and we are outsiders."
"Do you think I'm stupid? Would your mother do something like gossiping? I'm just so angry. It's obvious that Nian Jiarui likes someone else, but Chen Yanhua is still thinking about you, her daughter. It's simply... eating the bowl and thinking about the pot!"
"That's right, they're eating what's in the bowl and thinking about what's in the pot. How shameless! But, Mom, you're wrong. Aunt Chen isn't thinking about me, she's thinking about my family. Maybe she's planning to wipe out the whole family!"
"Eating up the entire family? They're dreaming! What era is this? Men and women are equal. Little Xingxing, you better show up for me. Our Li family is counting on you. Become a strong woman and surpass those brats from the Nian family in the future. Make your parents proud!"
"Yeah, who am I, your daughter? A high-level talent! I must do great things in the future." Lin Xiaoman promised.
In Lin Xiaoman's opinion, there are two reasons why Li Xinxing lost so badly. The first is that the Li family trusted the scumbag Nian Jiarui too much. The second is that she gave up being a poplar and became a dodder.
Of course, the main reason for Li Xinxing's becoming useless is that the scumbag was too insidious. He put the inexperienced her in a high position at the beginning, and then dug a pit for her to jump into. She fell so badly that she could never recover.
"That's right, your father is so capable, and a good father will have a good daughter. My dear daughter, school will start in two days, so you must study hard in school..."
…
After talking on the phone for more than an hour, Lin Xiaoman hung up and let out a long sigh.
In the original plot, the reason why Li Xinxing accepted Nian Jiarui was largely due to the influence of his parents.
Li's parents were very satisfied with Nian Jiarui, whom they knew inside and out. As for his affair with Shen Tong, they were not aware of it. They just heard Li Xinxing mention it casually that "Nian Jiarui likes someone else". They had no idea about the specific situation. With Nian Jiarui's "turnover" and Shen Yanhua's daily encouragement, this small black spot was easily covered up.
Now that Li's mother heard the conversation between the two, her impression of Nian Jiarui obviously changed 180 degrees.
Moreover, she mentioned the term "eating up the entire family" today. Lin Xiaoman believed that Li's mother would be aware of this. Even if Nian Jiarui changed his attitude and pursued her as described in the plot, Li's mother would still be suspicious.
Obviously, what Li Xinxing cares about most is her parents. She obviously doesn't want to see herself having an unpleasant quarrel with her parents because of a scumbag. Therefore, she must pull the two of them into her camp and resist the scumbag together!
After successfully taking the first step, Lin Xiaoman felt that the road ahead would be much easier.
Shenghua Group, with a current market value of 22.3 billion, was jointly founded by her grandfather and old man Nian decades ago. Currently, their Li family holds a 29% stake, the Nian family holds 56%, and the remaining 15% is distributed among other small shareholders and retail investors.
