The school had no choice but to give her a nominal position, only asking her privately to help the research institute with some seed care and cultivation issues.
As for Xiaoli's marriage, Yu Yanzhi and his wife did not dare to force their daughter to go on blind dates. They tried their best to introduce her to promising young men, but unfortunately, no one could win her heart.
It wasn't all for naught. Huang Wenhua, the youngest son of the Huang family, caught Xiaoli's eye, but their relationship was limited to having a meal together. They didn't even watch a movie together, let alone hold hands.
The Huang family is also a military and political family. Huang Wenhua was born late in life. His eldest brother is already a colonel in the army, and two of his nephews have also joined the army and are already at the battalion commander level.
Not to mention, there's an old man with the rank of general in the family, whose status in the military is even higher than that of the Fu family.
The Huang family not only holds a prominent position in the military, but also has a place in the business world. Huang Wenhua's second elder brother is a business prodigy who has taken charge of the company at a young age.
It is far ahead in the field of biology, has successfully developed several effective drugs, and has cooperated with the country to become an industry leader.
Huang Wenhua's third sister is also a genius in biotechnology. She is dedicated to vaccine research and has already entered a national specialized research institute.
Huang Wenhua was an oddball, a typical spoiled brat. His family doted on him and couldn't bear to see him suffer, so he didn't join the army.
Every quarter, the company's dividends are deposited into my account, so I don't need to earn money myself; I can just enjoy life.
Moreover, he knows how to enjoy life, has a keen eye and good judgment, and it's very comfortable to be with him. Xiaoli really enjoys playing with him.
Huang Wenhua fell in love with Yu Xiaoli at first sight. She was exactly his type. He showered her with all the beautiful things in the world, hoping to win a smile from his goddess.
Fortunately, the goddess didn't dislike him; he could sense that.

Fu Mingqing got the position he wanted, but he hasn't moved an inch in the past five years. Liu Yilin has stopped helping him, and their relationship is not as good as it was before marriage.
It's as if she changed completely after getting married. She used to be very clingy to him before marriage, but now she ignores him and they've become just polite guests to each other.
The house was lifeless; he could only feel a little warmth when he saw his daughter, Fu Ranran.
"Dad, where did Mom go?"
"She went to your maternal grandfather's house, right? She'll be back soon. Let's go to your paternal grandmother's house together tonight, and I'll ask Aunt Zhang to make your favorite braised prawns, okay?"
"Okay, I love eating shrimp the most. I'll peel shrimp for Dad."
Little Ranran already knows who treats her well, and she sticks to that person.
Fu Mingqing felt bitter. He knew Liu Yilin loved to play around, but even Ranran didn't care if it was going too far.
Originally, Yuechi was quite satisfied with this daughter-in-law. She came from a good family, was beautiful, and he had been very respectful to her before the marriage.
She wanted to put on airs with her mother-in-law, but she never expected that after the marriage, the mother-in-law had no intention of moving into the Fu family home.
The Liu family had a villa as part of the dowry, so the young couple moved directly to the villa area by the river and rarely came back even once a month.
When they return, they won't be busy with anything; it's more like a leader's visit, just going through the motions.
"She's back and hiding in her room, not even coming out to help out. What a pampered young lady! She's married but doesn't act like a wife at all. What a disgrace to the family."
Yue Chi, who had once enjoyed the benefits brought by her mother-in-law, was extremely dissatisfied. However, the domineering Liu Yilin was not someone she could control. She couldn't help but complain about Fu Mingqing, wishing she had married Yu Xiaoli instead.
"Alright, that's enough. It's not like we don't have servants. It's good that you're back."
Fu Jiahao was also dissatisfied with Liu Yilin's attitude, but Commander Liu was his superior and he still had to rely on her.
"Grandpa, Grandma, let's eat some fruit together! These grapes are so sweet, Grandma, have some!"
Fu Ranran, at such a young age, already knows how to help her mother out of a predicament.
Yue Chi couldn't be angry anymore; she still loved her granddaughter.
"Okay, our Ranran is such a good girl~"

At Rongcheng Airport, Tong Xiaoxiao got off the plane with a four-year-old boy. Looking at the familiar place she hadn't seen in a long time, she felt particularly unsettled.
These past few years have been incredibly tough. If it weren't for that 500,000 yuan, she definitely wouldn't have made it through.
Fu Mingqing, I'm back!
Looking at her son Tong Nianzhi's strikingly similar face to Fu Mingqing's, she felt a surge of emotion. Would Qing be waiting for her? Or had he already found someone else?
"Are you Miss Tong? I'm Jing Cheng, sent by Heng Hui Biotechnology to pick you up." A young man walked over.
Tong Xiaoxiao nodded, "Yes, that's me, hello!"
Jing Cheng took the luggage from her hands and led the group toward the car by the roadside.
After settling in, Tong Xiaoxiao finally had time to inquire about what had happened in the past few years.
Upon learning that Xiao Li was doing very well, she felt a deep sense of resentment. If Xiao Li hadn't taken away her space, she wouldn't have suffered so much. She was determined to find a way to take the space back.
Fu Mingqing was already married, not to Yu Xiaoli, and had a daughter who was almost four years old, only three months younger than Nianzhi. This made her feel even more bitter.
But thinking of Zhou Tianyu, she felt a sweet warmth in her heart. She had always ignored Fu Mingqing's advances, but now she decided to accept Zhou Tianyu and no longer betray his love.

"Master, Tong Xiaoxiao is back."
123's dedicated reminder.
Xiao Li had just woken up from a nap when she heard Tongzi's voice.
"It's finally about to begin."
As the distinctive chords began to play, Xiao Li picked up her phone; it was a call from Huang Wenhua.
"Hey, Xiaoli, let's have afternoon tea together. I'll come pick you up."
Huang Wenhua knew Xiaoli's habits; she must have just woken up from her afternoon nap.
"good."
"See you later."
Huang Wenhua grinned and drove his Land Rover to the Yu family's house.
As soon as Xiaoli entered the coffee shop, she saw a familiar face: Liu Yilin and a man were drinking coffee and feeding each other small cakes, looking very intimate.
"Did they really scumbag Fu Mingqing? This is truly outrageous!"
Xiao Li sighed. She had worried that Liu Yilin would be let down by Fu Mingqing, but now it seemed that it was not necessarily who was the scumbag.
Upon entering the private room, Xiaoli looked at the cake on the table with delight; it was covered in fruit—strawberries, blueberries, cherries…
"The new dessert is called Fragrant Strawberry Delight, you should try it." Huang Wenhua really knew her well, and her mouth was full of sweetness.
After finishing the cake, Xiao Li let out a satisfied burp. Huang Wenhua pulled out a tissue and handed it to her. Xiao Li glanced at the man in front of her.
With round cat eyes that look quite cute, a high nose bridge, rosy lips, and a neat buzz cut, he looks like a well-behaved child.
He may appear gentle, but he is actually quite aloof. However, once you gain his approval, he will shower you with all his tenderness.
