Just as the two were exchanging sharp glances, Song Jianshe approached and said, "Lili, come out here for a moment."
"What's wrong?" Song Lili looked at Song Jianshe, not understanding why he suddenly called her.
Judging from Song Jianshe's expression, it didn't seem like something had happened, so she was even more unsure what else might happen.
"Come out for a moment, I have something to tell you." After saying that, Song Jianshe went out first.
After thinking for a moment, Song Lili handed Zhang Aiai over to Zhang Qinghua and said, "I'm going out for a bit. My older brother is looking for me. I'll be back in a little while."
Zhang Qinghua nodded; he had just seen Song Jianshe come in as well.
Song Lili squeezed her way out and saw Song Jianshe waiting not far away. "Big brother, what's wrong?"
"Lili, Comrade Qian is here. He's in his office. He said he needs to see you and wants you to go over there."
"Brother Qian? What's he doing here?" Song Lili asked in a questioning tone, but she was getting a little anxious.
If Qian Liulin had nothing to do, he wouldn't have come looking for her at all. Could it be something to do with her grandparents?
Song Lili turned her head and glanced at Zhang Qinghua's house, which was surrounded by a large group of people behind her. She hesitated for a moment, but finally gritted her teeth and said, "Let's go and take a look."
Song Lili trusted Zhang Qinghua and believed he could resolve the matter.
Therefore, she chose to go see Qian Liulin, fearing that there might be some bad news.
Song Lili felt uneasy. "Big brother, did Brother Qian say anything? How did he look?"
"He didn't say anything, just that he was looking for you, and his expression was like that. Why are you asking about this?" Song Jianshe asked.
"Nothing." Song Lili rolled her eyes. All she wanted to do was speculate whether it was a good thing or a bad thing. What else could she want to do?
"Lili, you're engaged now, you can't just think about things like that, can you?" Song Jianshe said to Song Lili very seriously.
"Why are you telling me all this?" Song Lili looked at Song Jianshe speechlessly. Was this guy thinking something wrong?
"I just wanted to remind you, in case you forgot to look at it," Song Jianshe said casually, but his eyes flickered, and it was clear that he wasn't telling the truth.
"Hmph," Song Lili snorted coldly. "Big brother, this is an illness that needs treatment, you know? How come you're even more prone to overthinking than a woman?" Song Lili couldn't help but complain.
Is it true that imagination knows no bounds?
Qian Liulin is just the older brother, so where did Song Jianshe see that there was a problem between them? Was it just because of a sentence he just said?
Song Lili was exasperated and wished she could strangle Song Jianshe.
He arrived at the office with a dark expression, only to find Qian Liulin already waiting there, looking perfectly normal.
Seeing Qian Liulin sitting upright, Song Lili breathed a huge sigh of relief; thank goodness nothing bad had happened.
Then, he went over and sat down in front of Qian Liulin. "Brother Qian, is there something you need today? Otherwise, you wouldn't have come here."
Moreover, nine times out of ten it's official business, and they've been sent there.
Qian Liulin nodded. "Lili, do you remember what I told you before, that someone was coming?"
Song Lili nodded, "I remember." It's only been a short time, she's not that forgetful.
"It's good that you remember." Qian Liulin breathed a sigh of relief, afraid that he would have to say it again.
"Why are you asking this? Those people shouldn't have anything to do with me, right?" Song Lili asked, puzzled.
Then, she was completely taken aback. She looked at Qian Liulin in disbelief, "Brother Qian, are you serious? Is this really how you treat me?"
"Why did you target me? Can't you choose someone else?" Song Lili couldn't help but groan as she lay on the table. Every single cell in her body was against it!
Qian Liulin looked at Song Lili and shook his head with a smile, "No, and I believe you."
Song Lili sat up and looked at Qian Liulin very seriously. "Brother Qian, but I don't believe in myself. Can I refuse?"
"There are already several grandpas and grandmas here, isn't that enough? Please don't send any more people over, okay? I don't want to take on such a big responsibility."
Once she made a promise to Qian Liulin, she had to keep it, which was a very difficult thing, and she didn't want to take on too much of it.
Qian Liulin's expression immediately became much more serious. "Lili, I have no other choice but to ask you for help."
“I certainly can’t take care of them myself, so I can only ask you for help. I trust you completely.”
Song Lili couldn't help but roll her eyes; she really didn't want this kind of trust.
The person who could make Qian Liulin ask for a favor must be no ordinary person, otherwise he wouldn't have come.
It's very likely that they'll end up like some of the grandparents, but that would be very risky, wouldn't it?
The person Qian Liulin sent was of high status, so the possibility of him being criticized and denounced was very high, and she was afraid that she couldn't protect him.
“But, Brother Qian, I’m afraid I won’t be able to do it and will ultimately fail you.”
"You know what's been going on lately, I'm also overwhelmed. My energy is limited, I can't worry about everything," Song Lili said earnestly.
This is a reason she had to consider. Reality is cruel; if she took on too much, in the end, the person Qian Liulin entrusted with the task would suffer.
Song Lili did not want it to be this way. Although she was aloof, she was not cruel.
"But I really can't find anyone else who can help me, so I can only turn to you," Qian Liulin said with a hint of bitterness.
He can only act behind the scenes; he can't help openly. Once others find out about their connection, a lot of problems will arise.
The most common approach is to suppress him and keep it from him, at which point he will be powerless.
Song Lili was also in a dilemma, but Qian Liulin had already said so much, and she couldn't refuse anymore.
Finally, he could only let out a heavy sigh, "Fine, since you've said so, I have no choice but to agree."
"But Brother Qian, I hope you understand that I can't help much, but I believe you can figure it out."
Qian Liulin smiled, a genuine smile from the heart. He nodded with a smile, "I understand, and I won't force you."
Song Lili rolled her eyes so hard they almost reached the sky. Not going to force it? What were you doing just now?
"You just need to lend a hand when they are in trouble, and at other times just be like grandparents and let them support themselves."
"They also work alongside everyone else, which makes their lives a little easier."
Song Lili nodded. It was good that Qian Liulin understood, so she could do something about it.
"However, Lili, there are some things I still need to tell you."
"You say it," Song Lili sat up straight and looked at Qian Liulin very seriously.
"No need for that," Qian Liulin said with a smile. "I just wanted to tell you that the people who were sent this time know Grandpa and Grandma."
"So you have to tell your grandparents, so that if they see you on the road later and you give yourself away, they'd better pretend they don't know you."
Song Lili nodded, indicating that she understood.
Qian Liulin's actions were all done in secret; if others found out, there would likely be a lot of trouble.
