Chapter 47 Undercover Meeting
After hearing this gossip, Xia Lili became even more disgusted with Shangguan Xu.
He was also more wary of his agent Shangguan Xu.
Shangguan Xu may be a legal expert, but her agent is not much better.
Xia Lili held Mi Wei'er's hand worriedly: "You must protect yourself."
"I will!"
Mi Wei'er patted the back of Xia Lili's hand to reassure her: "Your own safety is the most important, fame is secondary."
"Let's not talk about such heavy topics anymore, let's eat!"
"Don't I have to pick out clothes for you to wear to the concert later?"
After dinner.
After picking out clothes, Xia Lili and Mi Weiler returned home and made a video call with their parents.
She was busy worrying about her brother's affairs yesterday, so she only had time today to tell her parents the good news.
When the call was connected, Xia Lili's mother answered with a smile on her face and a kind look: "Oh, I feel like my daughter has become more beautiful."
"Lili, why did you call me suddenly?"
Xia Lili has now developed a habit. When she sees someone, she looks at them for seven or eight seconds before speaking.
"Mom, I passed the civil service exam!"
Xia Lili looked into her mother's gentle and loving eyes for a long time, and nothing happened.
She breathed a sigh of relief and said cheerfully, "The company has allocated housing for family members. When you and Dad are free, I'll call a car to pick you up in Yuan County."
Xia Lili's parents both help people grow fruit in Yuan County, and they provide food and accommodation.
Xia Lili's mother, Chang Yue, smiled in surprise when she heard what Xia Lili said: "Really?"
It is the wish of almost every ordinary parent that their children have a stable job.
"Our little treasure is awesome!"
When Xia Lili heard her mother's words, she smiled from the bottom of her heart.
Although her family is not wealthy, her parents have tried their best to provide her with the best growth environment, encouraging education, and full emotional value.
Seeing that her father was not next to her mother, Xia Lili couldn't help but worry: "Mom, where is my dad?"
"Your dad is washing clothes and quilt covers!"
Chang Yue turned around and yelled outside, his voice changing from kind to irritable: "Lili's dad, your daughter called and wants to see you!"
Father Xia on the other end of the phone responded immediately: "Hey, here I come!"
Father Xia came over quickly and stood in front of the camera. "Lili, do you not need to wear glasses anymore?"
He remembered that Xia Lili had severe myopia and still had to wear glasses even if the distance was close.
"No need." Xia Lili shook her head and said with a smile, "My company reimbursed me for my nearsightedness surgery."
Father Xia was surprised: "Wow, what unit is so good?"
Xia Lili said seriously, "It's a confidential unit, so I can't reveal too much right now."
"You two should bring your ID cards and household registration books with you, and come to the city to complete the check-in procedures with me, and you'll find out."
Xia Lili and her father looked at each other and found nothing unusual, and she finally put her mind at ease.
On the other end of the phone, Mom and Dad discussed it and said to Xia Lili:
"Lili, your father and I are helping people grow fruit here. We provide food and accommodation, and we also get a salary, which is enough for us to live on."
"Why don't you ask if you can get family housing in exchange for salary subsidies?"
"It's not easy for you to live in the city. Save some money and buy yourself some good food."
Xia Lili felt sad when she heard the decision her parents made after discussing it.
She choked up and said, "Don't worry, my salary is high and my bonus is also high."
"You come to the city and complete the paperwork. Your employer will also pay for your pension and medical care, and there will also be subsidies for your family."
"Also, you can go to Huajin Hospital for free medical treatment and physical examinations."
"If you don't come, this place will be wasted. What a shame."
“The subsidies are gone.”
Xia Lili shook her head regretfully, feigning worry: "Besides, I have to worry about your safety, so I can't concentrate on my work."
——"Ah, I see."
"Your job is so well paid!"
Xia Lili's parents' reaction was exactly the same as her brother's: "Lili, with such good job benefits, will the work be very hard?"
"You don't have to worry about your parents. They have already saved enough money for their retirement."
Xia Lili felt a pang in her heart and shook her head: "No."
"As long as you move in and cooperate with my work, I'll feel much more at ease."
When Xia Lili's parents heard that this would affect Xia Lili's work, they looked at each other and started discussing it.
"Lili, then mom and dad will take some leave and come to the city to handle the paperwork."
Xia Lili beamed: "Okay, if you've made your decision, tell me. The sooner you come, the sooner you can apply, and the sooner it'll be done!"
After discussing it with her parents, Xia Lili felt relieved.
After their daughter reported the good news, mom and dad started to worry about their eldest daughter again: "How is your brother doing recently? He hasn't contacted us recently."
Xia Lili's eyes flashed, and she smiled and said, "Brother is fine now, don't worry!"
"I'll catch him and call you guys later!"
End the call with my parents.
Xia Lili's eyes fell on the safe containing the recorder.
This time, with her around, her brother will definitely be fine.

The next day at 3:30 p.m.
Xia Lili spent a huge amount of money to go to a beauty salon to wash and blow-dry her hair, and changed into the dress she and Mi Weiler picked out yesterday.
A simple white satin skirt, simple yet elegant.
The stand-up collar makes her neck look longer and slender, and the hollow design at the back of her neck is faintly visible.
The hem of her skirt swayed lightly with her steps, and the darkly embroidered camellia pattern appeared and disappeared in the light.
The stylist tucked her loose hair behind her ears and pinned a fresh camellia bud.
She was already pretty, and this dress made her look as clear as the first snow.
After getting dressed, Xia Lili walked into the garage when a black Mercedes-Benz stopped in front of her.
The car window rolled down, revealing Li Qihan's cold and stern profile.
He was wearing a neat black suit, a white shirt and a dark blue tie, and he looked like a sharp sword drawn from its sheath.
His slender fingers rested on the documents, and his expensive watch flashed with a cold light.
"Get in the car," he said without looking up.
Xia Lili opened the car door and smelled a faint scent of cedar perfume: "Captain Li, do you even have a driver?"
"Bus." He answered briefly and adjusted his cuffs which were not wrinkled at all.
The driver in the driver's seat also rolled down the window at this time. It was Xiao Luo from the police force.
Xiao Luo smiled awkwardly and said, "Boss Xia, I made some mistakes when I was taking the statement. I'm here to apologize to you as your driver."
When he saw Xia Lili's outfit, his eyes flashed with amazement: "Mr. Xia, you look so beautiful today!"
"I say you should burn your usual oversized T-shirt and jeans!"
Xia Lili smiled awkwardly. Isn't that how you dress for work? Just deal with it casually.
Upon hearing this, Li Qihan looked up, looked at Xia Lili, and then frowned.
Xia Lili felt uneasy when Li Qihan looked at her. "Captain Li, is there something wrong with my outfit?"
She felt a little aggrieved. She had spent two hundred dollars on a haircut and a blow-dryer!
"I have dressed formally as you instructed."
——"It's too eye-catching."
Li Qi said coldly.
