Miao Tianxiang was overjoyed, her face beaming with smiles. "President Li really knows how to talk, no wonder he can charm this young lady..."
She glanced at the embarrassed Dong Siyue, her smile turning ambiguous, while Li Hongming looked smug. "Madam Miao, you flatter me. And who is this?"
He pointed at Ye Qingqing, his eyes filled with amazement, but he didn't dare to look at her for long. His gaze swept over her quickly. Even if the woman beside Miao Tianxiang was more beautiful than a fairy, she was not someone he could set his sights on.
Miao Tianxiang put her arm around Ye Qingqing and said with a smile, "This is my granddaughter, my darling Qingqing. This is your Uncle Li. Oh dear... I'm sorry, I'm taking advantage of Mr. Li."
"You've made me feel younger, I'd love to. Congratulations, Mrs. Miao."
Li Hongming didn't care at all. So many people were vying to let Miao Tianxiang take advantage of them. He looked at Ye Xunmei and had a general idea in his mind. He guessed that she was probably the granddaughter of Miao Tianxiang's new lover. However, Ye Xunmei's granddaughter was much prettier than Ye Susu from Hong Kong.
He turned to Dong Siyue and said, "Siyue, this is the renowned Madam Miao."
Dong Siyue greeted Ye Qingqing politely, but her eyes darted away from her.
Miao Tianxiang looked at Dong Siyue scrutinizingly, then smiled slightly, "President Li's luck with women is quite good, isn't it? We're going down for dinner, let's not keep you company any longer."
When the elevator arrived, Li Hongming, flattered, let Ye Qingqing and the others go in first, while he and Dong Siyue stayed outside and did not come in.
As the elevator doors closed, Ye Qingqing caught a glimpse of Dong Siyue's face through the gap. She immediately collapsed and panicked, recalling what Miao Tianxiang had just said.
It's obvious that Dong Siyue and Li Hongming are not father and daughter; judging from Miao Tianxiang's tone, it seems more like...
Ye Qingqing was skeptical. Dong Siyue didn't seem like that kind of person. She thought it was quite possible for Sun Yurong to be a mistress, but Dong Siyue...
After Ye Qingqing left, Dong Siyue immediately lost her composure and could barely stand. Li Hongming, oblivious to her loss, asked, "Siyue, do you know that pretty girl from earlier?"
"Um... he's a classmate."
Dong Siyue was flustered and answered casually. She was still thinking about how to face Ye Qingqing tomorrow... no, tonight. She was going back to her dormitory after dinner. Today was not the weekend, and Ye Qingqing would definitely be going back to her dormitory too.
Li Hongming was very happy and instructed, "Then you should get along well with this classmate. Do you know who the woman next to her is? She is the internationally famous Mrs. Miao. If you can win her favor, not only will it benefit you, Siyue, but my business will also benefit greatly."
Dong Siyue laughed self-deprecatingly and said with a mournful tone, "With my status, how could Madam Miao possibly look at me?"
She now wishes she could escape medical school and never go back to her dorm again.
Li Hongming then noticed that something was wrong with Dong Siyue and frowned slightly. He knew what Dong Siyue was worried about. If that pretty girl made a scene at school, Dong Siyue would indeed have a hard time continuing her studies.
"Don't worry, Mrs. Miao was originally the gambling king's concubine, so she won't hold a grudge against you. As for your classmate, I'll talk to Mrs. Miao later and ask her to tell your classmate not to go around talking about it. No one will know."
Li Hongming comforted Dong Siyue, saying that he truly liked this young girl. After all, she had been with him for four years and never made any excessive demands. If possible, he would even like to give Dong Siyue a formal status!
"Is it okay?" Dong Siyue felt a little relieved, but still had some doubts.
Li Hongming patted her shoulder gently and smiled, "When have I ever lied to you?"
Dong Siyue smiled faintly, said nothing, and felt a little relieved.
