Chapter 537: Startling Steps
It’s the neighbor, Miss Li!
While living here, Sister Li gave Shen Yumo a lot of help.
Shen Yumo's heart was filled with gratitude towards Sister Li.
But now, the appearance of Sister Li made Shen Yumo's heart suddenly rise to his throat.
Shouldn't Sister Li go to work at this time?
Why is she here? "Sister, you didn't go to work today?" Shen Yumo is not the kind of person who forgets what he should do when he panics.
On the contrary, she is the calmest when the situation becomes more critical.
Knowing that she couldn't hesitate at this time, she gave Sister Li a head start and thus took control of the topic.
When Sister Li heard Shen Yumo's question, she immediately said, "I've already arrived at the office, but I forgot to take something, so I went home."
At this point, Sister Li continued, "Yumo, you are so comfortable now. You are a full-time writer and don't have to work in the office!"
Hearing Sister Li's envious words, Shen Yumo hurriedly said, "Sister, we full-time writers look very enviable."
“In fact, we have our own difficulties.”
“You don’t know, it’s really frustrating when you have no inspiration to write.”
At this point, Shen Yumo continued, "My dad and my sister are coming to Donghai. I'll take them around. You go ahead and do your work."
This sentence actually means to end the conversation with Sister Li.
As long as my father and Sister Li don't have contact, the clouds of the day will disperse.
Shen Yumo was very clear that he had too many flaws now.
After all, how could such a big doll be completely covered?
When Sister Li heard that Shen Yumo's father had arrived, she smiled and said, "Yumo, you go ahead and do your work. Tell me if you need anything."
As he was talking, he was about to go back to his home.
When Shen Yumo saw this situation, Xin Zhonghua secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
The main thing is that Sister Li returned to her home, and for her, everything was settled.
But what Shen Yumo didn't expect was that just when Sister Li was about to go home, Shen Yunliang came over.
He smiled and said to Sister Li: "Hello, comrade. I am Shen Yumo's father. Thank you very much for taking care of our Yumo."
Sister Li looked at the elegant Shen Yunliang and smiled even more.
"Hello, Uncle Shen. Yu Mo is not only good-looking, but also has a good temper. We are neighbors, and we help each other. Yu Mo has also helped me a lot."
"It's all your credit that I was able to raise such an outstanding daughter!"
When Shen Yunliang heard what Sister Li said, a hint of light suddenly appeared on his face.
He smiled and said, "You are too flattering. Yumo is young and sometimes a little stubborn."
"Her mother and I are in Yanjing again, and we will still need you neighbors to take care of us in the future!"
Sister Li didn't think about anywhere else. Although Shen Yumo had moved, she still came here occasionally.
After all, the place where she is registered to live now is still here.
As for the villa that Cheng Xuyuan bought, she basically didn't tell anyone except some close friends.
"Uncle Shen, you are too polite. We and Yu Mo help each other."
"Uncle Shen, it's not easy for you to come to the East China Sea. Why don't you have lunch at my house today? The food I cook is pretty good."
Shen Yumo felt nervous about Sister Li's invitation.
If he had a meal at Sister Li's house, Shen Yumo was sure that everything he wanted to hide would be exposed.
So at this moment, she looked at her father a little nervously, fearing that Shen Yunliang would agree.
Shen Yunliang was not a person who liked to trouble others. He also knew that Sister Li was mainly being polite, so he smiled and then said gratefully: "Thank you for your kindness, but I have an appointment with a few friends at noon."
"We'll talk again later when we have a chance."
When Sister Li heard Shen Yunliang's refusal, she said regretfully, "Then let's talk about it later."
As she spoke, her eyes fell on Li Yufei, and she said with emotion: "Uncle Shen, I really envy you for having two such good daughters. Does your youngest daughter have a partner?"
Li Yufei had lived in Donghai before, so she had met the eldest sister.
It’s just that Li Yufei has a rather cold personality and doesn’t have much contact with Sister Li.
When asked about his little daughter's situation, Shen Yunliang didn't take it to heart. He smiled and said, "Yu Fei is still in school. If you..."
Hearing this, Shen Yumo's heart tightened.
She had already guessed what her father was going to say, and once this was said, her relationship with Cheng Xuyuan would probably arouse Sister Li's suspicion.
And Sister Li just said, "Isn't Yu Mo's partner a researcher? I met him during the Chinese New Year."
As long as Sister Li said this, we would be in big trouble.
But how to stop it? Just then, Li Yufei said in an impatient tone: "Dad, I've already said that I can find my own partner."
"Don't worry about it!"
Li Yufei's words directly interrupted Shen Yunliang's next words.
Sister Li looked at the angry Li Yufei and thought that although this girl was as pretty as her sister, her temper was not as good as her sister's.
This is normal. The younger the daughter, the more spoiled she is.
She smiled but didn't say anything.
Shen Yunliang glared at his little daughter and said, "I'm not talking about your business, don't worry."
Li Yufei snorted and said, "I take care of my own business."
This interruption was enough to confuse the subject.
Although Sister Li loves to talk, Li Yufei's interruption makes her feel a little embarrassed.
So I smiled and said, "Uncle Shen, please take a rest first. I have something to do at home. We can talk later."
As she spoke, Sister Li turned and walked towards her home.
Looking at Sister Li leaving, Shen Yumo breathed a sigh of relief.
If it weren't for Li Yufei's quick response, this time it would have been troublesome.
But even so, she was sweating a lot.
In Shen Yumo's opinion, the situation at that time was really too dangerous.
Shen Yunliang didn't know that he was extremely close to the truth. Just one sentence could lead him to a big discovery.
"This Sister Li is a warm-hearted person." Shen Yunliang said, "In the future, if you encounter any difficulties and need help from your neighbors, just ask."
"At worst, we can turn around and give it back."
"After all, people don't live in a vacuum. You never know when you might need help from others."
Shen Yumo was no longer surprised by his father's remarks.
Hearing Shen Yunliang say this, she hurriedly said, "Dad, I understand."
Shen Yunliang nodded and said, "Let's go. I should go back to the hotel. I have an appointment with Lao Fang and the others at noon.
This time, Cheng Xuyuan's work seminar was attended by many big names. Shen Yunliang also had some old friends he hadn't seen for many years and needed to catch up with them.
Shen Yumo nodded and said, "Dad, I'll go back with you."
"Let's find a place and have a good meal at noon."
Shen Yunliang nodded and said, "Okay, whatever you want to eat, I'll treat you."
Li Yufei said, "I heard that there are a lot of delicious food in Yu Garden. Let's go and have a look later."
Shen Yunliang naturally would not refuse his youngest daughter's request.
Walking out of the family compound, the journey was uneventful.
Although some neighbors greeted Shen Yumo, most of them were just nodding acquaintances and there was no other conversation.
After leaving the family compound, Shen Yumo breathed a sigh of relief. She felt that the crisis brought by her father should have disappeared by now.
There shouldn't be any problem with Cheng Xuyuan.
After all, all he had to do was to coax Fang Yuqing, and the possibility of him being exposed was very small.
Cheng Xuyuan and Fang Yuqing were shopping. Although he was the protagonist of this work seminar, in fact, with the arrival of important guests one after another, he became one of the most idle people.
After all, all the editors who have gained something have to do is wait for the meeting.
Meng Dezhi knew that Fang Yuqing and Cheng Xuyuan had not seen each other for many days, and the young people did not want to have a third wheel like him during their date.
Therefore, he doesn't interfere in the affairs of young people.
The two of them strolled along the Bund, took a ferry on the Huangpu River, and went to the Friendship Store for a shopping spree.
For Cheng Xuyuan, shopping does not bring any pressure to him.
Not only did he have money, but he also had foreign exchange coupons, so he could basically buy whatever he wanted.
Fang Yuqing didn't buy anything during the shopping trip, but she bought two sets of clothes for Cheng Xuyuan.
Although Cheng Xuyuan said he had enough clothes, Fang Yuqing still insisted on buying them for her.
According to her, this work seminar is very important to Cheng Xuyuan, and he cannot be careless about his attire.
Passing by an old house, Fang Yuqing's eyes flashed with great interest. Cheng Xuyuan smiled and said, "If you like it, let's buy one."
"I heard that many people want to sell this kind of house during this period."
Shen Yumo glared at Cheng Xuyuan and said, "Why buy it? We're not going to live here."
"Now that you've graduated, do you still want to come to Donghai to work?"
Cheng Xuyuan thought he couldn't say that he wanted to come to Donghai, so he smiled and said, "Don't I like you?"
"Besides, we are not short of money."
Cheng Xuyuan is not short of money, he is very rich now.
Apart from anything else, as his books became best-sellers in Hong Kong, the royalties he received from Ming Pao in recent times have reached millions.
However, Cheng Xuyuan has always kept this money in Hong Kong, and now he has invested part of it in the Hong Kong stock market.
Fang Yuqing rolled her eyes at Cheng Xuyuan and said, "There are so many things I like, and I can have them all."
At this point, she seemed to say deliberately: "Although I like Donghai very much, I will come here less often in the future."
At this point, she glanced at Cheng Xuyuan and said, "You should come to Donghai less often."
These words startled Cheng Xuyuan. He thought to himself, could it be that Fang Yuqing discovered something, so she said this?
