"Really?" Liu Zi felt that what happened to this family could be made into a TV series. She thought she could interview Xiao Mei's mother another day.
"Actually, Xiaomei's father is a leader in his workplace, with a respectable job, but his wife's family is even better. I heard that the bride's family paid for their wedding house in Beijing. If it weren't for that old woman insisting on taking care of her granddaughter, Xiaomei's mother wouldn't have been willing to leave the child behind."
"Sigh! I hope Xiaomei will be happier living with her mother in the future!" Liu Zi sighed.
Liu Zi heard the final ending of Xiao Mei's family story from Ling Zi.
One day during winter break, Suzuko visibly cheered up after making a phone call at home.
Liu Zi asked a question, not understanding why, and then realized that she had just been talking to Lingzi.
"Mom, although I can't see Xiaomei this Chinese New Year, I'm still happy that she doesn't have to see her witch grandma." In the little girl's mind, Xiaomei's grandma is no different from the witch in fairy tales.
"Isn't she coming back for the New Year?" Liu Zi wondered if Xiao Mei's parents had divorced.
"She's not coming back. She and her parents went to her maternal grandparents' house for the Chinese New Year this year. Her mother told her all of that." Lingzi told Liu Zi everything Xiaomei had told her.
Liu Zi then deduced from their conversation that Xiao Mei's father had been transferred to work in Jinshi before the new year, and the three of them were now living together. It seemed that Xiao Mei's grandmother had been abandoned by her son.
I wonder if the other person regrets it now. If only they had known this would happen, why did they do it in the first place?
Liu Zi's clothing store was very popular before the Lunar New Year, and even Pei Shiheng was surprised by the volume of goods shipped from Beijing.
The preliminary selection process for Super Star is basically complete, and we're just waiting for the champion to be chosen next year to participate in the grand final.
Liu Zi asked Pei Shiheng to help prepare suitable clothes in advance, as this was a highly profitable venture. If just a few items became popular, they would have made a fortune.
Pei Shiheng had no choice but to agree and immediately summoned the company's designers to design stage costumes.
As for the Polaris shopping website, it is becoming increasingly sophisticated, with a rapid increase in traffic. After the new year, it will expand its business to other regions.
With everything going smoothly, Liu Zi was in a great mood. Now that she finally had some free time, she came to Chenxing to keep her busy boyfriend company.
Leaning comfortably on the sofa, Liu Zi was engrossed in a novel, occasionally chuckling when she came across an interesting part.
Li Mu helplessly took off his glasses and rubbed his brow bone, wondering for the first time what the purpose of all his businesses was.
"I'd like to visit your home before the New Year!" Li Mu's shocking words stunned Liu Zi.
"What?"
"We've been dating for almost two months now, and I'd like to meet your family, as well as Lingzi and Qiqi!" Li Mu said solemnly.
"But...but..." Liu Zi stammered. She hadn't told anyone about their relationship, and if they met again, wouldn't everything be over?
"What? Am I someone you can't show your face to?" Li Mu asked with a mournful expression.
"No, how could our wise, resourceful, and capable CEO Li be anything he wouldn't want to be seen with? I'm just afraid..."
Liu Ziyu spoke with reservations. Her mother had never given up on introducing her to potential partners, and now that she heard that Liu Ziyu was dating someone, she would immediately urge her to get married.
"What are you afraid of?" Li Mu stood up from behind his desk and walked to Liu Zi.
"Afraid they won't like me?"
"No, you're handsome and come from a good family. I'm just afraid I'm not good enough for you."
Liu Zi expressed her long-standing worry: once their relationship was exposed, she and her two children would be the subject of gossip, and she didn't want them to suffer with her.
"My mother died early, and I didn't have a good relationship with my father. Only my grandfather cared about me. He didn't care about any of these things. When he was desperate, he introduced me to a widow for a blind date. How could he care that you have two children?" Li Mu didn't mind revealing his shameful secrets.
"Huh?" Grandpa Li doesn't seem to have any dietary restrictions!
"He's eager to have his great-grandson, so..." Li Mu said awkwardly.
Liu Zi was surprised by Grandpa Li's reaction and felt a slight sense of relief.
"But you promised me we'd only date, not get married." Liu Zi didn't realize that her tone was no longer as resolute as it had been before.
"We don't have to get married, but that doesn't stop us from meeting each other's families!"
"Liu Zi, you're being unfair. I get the feeling you might just walk away at any moment."
Liu Zi remained silent; she had indeed held that view at the time.
Li Mu looked at her, his face gradually darkening. It turned out he hadn't been wrong; this woman really did have that idea.
"Scumbag woman!"
After leaving those words, Li Mu opened the door and walked out of the office.
Liu Zi froze for a moment, then looked at Li Mu's departing figure in disbelief.
How could this man say that about her? Although she is indeed a bit...scummy.
Liu Zi pouted, feeling wronged, but thinking about how good Li Mu had been to her these past few days, she couldn't help but feel a little guilty.
well!
How do I appease an angry boyfriend?
Waiting for an answer online!
Li Mu didn't leave either. He was just too angry, but he didn't want to argue with Liu Zi, so he had to leave first.
He waved away the secretary who had come out to assess the situation and walked alone into the adjacent conference room.
Liu Zijiu and the others didn't come back either, and they were worried that he had really abandoned them there, so they had to come out to look for him.
The secretary saw Liu Zi and quietly pointed her in a direction.
Liu Zi nodded knowingly, then walked to the door of the conference room next door and went in without saying hello.
The other people in the secretary's office were puzzled. Just now, President Li was clearly angry. Why was Sister Xu helping Miss Liu like this? Wasn't she afraid that President Li would be angry?
This prompted some people to quietly ask gossipy questions.
"How do you know Mr. Li is angry? Maybe he's been waiting for this!"
Secretary Xu has been with Li Mu for almost ten years and knows him very well. If he doesn't want to see certain people, then those people definitely won't be able to see him.
Although Mr. Li was angry, he only went to the conference room next to the office, and didn't even lock the door. It was obvious that he wanted to be coaxed.
Now that Miss Liu, who knows how to coax people, has come, why would she stop people from leaving?
Everyone suddenly realized why Secretary Xu was able to become the chief secretary; she really understood President Li very well.
As soon as Liu Zi entered the room, she saw Li Mu standing desolately in front of the French windows, looking rather pitiful.
She walked over and hugged Li Mu from behind, pressing her pretty face against his back.
"I'm sorry, I did something wrong, please don't be angry."
Li Mu remained unmoved.
Liu Zi pressed her head against Li Mu's back, twisting and wriggling in a coquettish manner, hoping that the man would calm down.
Seeing that the other party was really unhappy, Liu Zi sighed.
"Alright, you can see her if you want!"
"Really?" Li Mu asked proudly.
"Really, but I have a condition!" Liu Zi looked up at him.
