When Lin Weiwei and Xiao Se arrived at the Independent Commission Against Corruption (ICAC), they saw a woman surnamed Li supporting a man dressed in a white shirt and suit pants. The man had messy hair, a stubble white beard, and an oily face, and he was limping out.
"Dad, why are you lame?! Was it done by the Independent Commission Against Corruption (ICAC)?"
When he went in, he was wearing the finest custom-made clothes, even his tie was a limited edition French style, each costing over 100,000 yuan for members, and his perfume exuded an aristocratic air. Now, his pants have a torn button, his tie is nowhere to be found, he walks unsteadily with bloodshot eyes.
"Nonsense! Shouting and yelling at the main gate—your current status doesn't allow you to be so insolent!"
This rebuke brought him back to his senses. He had indeed lost his temper, and if the paparazzi had discovered it, they would probably use it to make a story. Bad news travels fast, so the truth didn't matter; he only cared about whether it had commercial value or was something to sell.
Xiao Aotian originally thought that his son taking this position would bring about some changes, but his reckless behavior just now has brought him back to his old ways.
Lin Weiwei, who was standing next to them, nodded without saying a word. The two men remained silent throughout the journey in the car, as the tension from earlier had not yet eased.
That annoying old man Xiao, I was just worried about you and lost my temper for a moment. How could you be so disrespectful to my wife? I was just asking, what's wrong with that?
Xiao Se looked out the window, unwilling to turn his head back.
Xiao Aotian looked at the ring on Lin Weiwei's hand and nodded in satisfaction. This was the most correct thing he had ever done. When he returned to the Xiao Group and tore off the seal, the feeling of coming home was really good. He pulled up his shirt sleeve, revealing that his arm was covered with pipe marks.
"Xiao Se, I'm handing over the business to you now. You don't need to go to school anymore; marry Lin Weiwei."
"I won't!"
"Can't"
Lin Weiwei and Xiao Se both refused in unison.
Having just taken up his position on the school board, his position is not yet stable and he could be replaced at any time. Also, half of the success in this campaign was due to the bald guy's help, and neither of them forgot their promise.
She glanced at Xiao Se, took his hand, and said, "Uncle Xiao, Xiao Se and I have our own ideas. We want to revitalize the campus. Mangxing University is our school, with teachers and students. If we take over your business, we're afraid we won't be able to handle it."
Moreover, Han Han suddenly appeared out of nowhere today. Fortunately, neither of them had seen the news yet. If they had, their father-son relationship would probably have returned to square one.
"Dad, I want to do well, so don't stop me! I'll marry Lin Weiwei even if you don't tell me."
Seeing that the two young men gave the same answer and were very resolute, Xiao Aotian wanted to say something more but stopped himself. His health was deteriorating, and after a month of investigation by the Independent Commission Against Corruption, he had become so old and gray-haired. He just wanted to retire honorably. Now the family was in the car, preparing to go out to a restaurant to celebrate.
In the car
Looking at Li Shi beside her, she nodded to herself and sighed, "You can't beat your uncle. You have to be very careful in your work as the student council chairman, especially pay attention to those shareholders. They all seem easy to get along with, but they are all cunning and shrewd. Pay special attention to the wording of the contracts, you have to understand it very well."
There's no way to interfere with a child's choice, since Xiao Se is about to start a new family. However, I'm genuinely worried that the shareholders will make things difficult for me.
Without the position of school board member, how did you get out? Actually, Old Man Xiao did a really good job. If you can do it, why can't I?
"I know, I just want to ask Ms. Li, when are you and Dad getting a divorce?"
Lin Weiwei glared at him with her big, dark eyes, and stomped on his foot. "You're so smug, you're interfering in your father's life. It's very inappropriate to say this now."
"Don't kick me, wife! Li Yao is your brother. He killed my grandfather and my birth mother. How dare you sit here? You even came out again when my father came out and the situation improved!"
With a bang, the car door slammed shut, and Li got out of the car without saying a word.
"Nonsense! It's a good thing we were waiting at a traffic light. You come back and immediately start arguing, don't you? Have you grown too big for your britches? Evidence! Everything needs evidence. Your words are insulting to the Li family."
Xiao Aotian sighed and got out of the car to chase after them. The atmosphere had dropped to freezing point. There were only him, Lin Weiwei, and a driver/butler in the car. The car seats hadn't even warmed up before they were all left cold.
He felt nothing but hatred for Li Yao.
No one knows the feeling he had when he saw Li Yao in the audience, his voice trembling with rage. Without this uncle, the Xiao family wouldn't be where they are today, but it was also because of him that he was able to sit in the seat that Li Yao most wanted to sit in.
Evidence! Li Yao's speech today is the best evidence, showing that helium is also highly toxic. Long-term use by ordinary people will cause necrosis of one organ, followed by the gradual decline of other organs, eventually leading to death.
“Xiao Se, I envy you for having such a loving father and a stepmother who treats you like her own child. You shouldn’t have gotten so angry and embarrassed your father in the middle.”
After all, Li had also approached her before, and the ring on her hand was brought by this woman.
"Even you're protecting Li Shi? She doesn't treat me like her own daughter, that's only natural! I was furious the moment I saw Li Shi."
"childish!"
Lin Weiwei shook her head, unbuckled her seatbelt, and jumped out of the car as it was moving slowly, accidentally leaving the test results inside.
never mind!
She didn't want to go back to the car. He was just taking his frustrations out on her. She wanted him to be alone in the car and have some peace and quiet so he could think things through.
On Mercury, once an abandoned baby survives to the age of three in an orphanage and is not selected by the special forces, some are immediately executed. This is because abandoned babies there may be artificially created to resemble humans, failing the tests and always having the same heartbeat. Those children are pitiful.
Having grown up and developed human emotions, why do Earthlings take their current lives so lightly?
After circling around, Xiao Se turned back to find Lin Weiwei. Along the way, he watched the people coming and going. Damn woman, she walked so fast. Could it be that she wants to call off the engagement?
Lin Weiwei, I, Xiao Se, have said I would marry you, and I must marry you. How can you just leave whenever you want, or not marry me whenever you want?
"Lin Weiwei, come out here! We agreed to go home and have dinner together. I was wrong! Hey, Mrs. President, I'll go find my father and come back with us, okay?"
He was completely at a loss with his wife. What if Li Yao picked her up? Or had she already met Li Yao? He was filled with anxious and restless thoughts in the car.
Little did they know, Lin Weiwei was already having a lively conversation with Li Shi and Xiao Aotian while eating fried rice by the roadside.
