As Wu Xiu spoke, tears began to flow unconsciously. “We said that we would make her the happiest little princess in the world. How can you do this now?”
Tan Pei walked forward quickly with a look of heartache, wanting to hold her in his arms.
But unexpectedly, Wu Xiu actually pushed him away.
”Tan Pei, do you no longer love us, mother and daughter?”
A beauty’s tears are like pear blossoms in the rain, making her even more beautiful.
Tan Pei’s heart had been in a knot since he heard Wu Xiu calling him by his full name. Now, seeing her sobbing, he felt as if his heart was being held tightly in someone’s hands.
”How could it be!” He held Wu Xiu in his arms gently and firmly, not allowing her to refuse, “Xiu Xiu, how could I not love you?”
”Even if I don’t love myself, I will never forget to love you.”
Tan Li looked at the two people in front of her, hugging each other tightly as if no one was around—
【Eehee~】
She really tried to hold it back, but she couldn’t.
【The sour smell of love.】
Wu Xiu’s face suddenly felt hot. She tried to push Tan Pei in front of her, but unfortunately failed.
Tan Pei’s mind was completely on Wu Xiu, and he didn’t even glance at Tan Li.
Seeing that Wu Xiu wanted to get out of his arms, he tightened his arms even more.
”Let me go.” Wu Xiu whispered, “The children are still watching.”
Tan Pei refused domineeringly, “If you don’t let me go, don’t expect me to let you go in this life.”
Tan Li was watching with great interest when she felt someone approaching from behind…
She didn’t even turn her head until the person behind her hesitated for a long time and then carefully poked the back of her hand. Only then did Tan Li turn her head to look at the other person.
To be honest, given the complexity of Tan Xinman’s current expressions, Tan Li felt that she could publish a textbook on “How to use the five senses to express a variety of emotions.”
Mixed with embarrassment, the joy of finally finding someone who was persecuted by their parents’ love like her, the guilt towards Tan Li, and the self-blame that she didn’t deserve to be so happy…
Tan Li: It’s amazing. Over there, it’s the heartbreaking love, and over here, it’s the complicated inner world of human nature.
What kind of Feng Shui treasure land is this Tan family?
Wonderful! Elegant!
Tan Xinman, who had been hiding in the corner like an invisible person since Tan Li appeared, finally mustered up the courage to approach Tan Li.
She pointed silently outward, as if to say to give space to Tan Pei and Wu Xiu.
Tan Li: Does this mean that you want her to stop being a light bulb here?
[No, this drama about a domineering CEO falling in love with me is good, I love it and want to watch more. ]
Not only did she not leave, but she looked at Tan Pei and Wu Xiu with great interest, “You continue, pretend we don’t exist.”
”Pfft——” Tan Xinman suddenly lowered her head and suppressed her muffled laughter.
Not only was Wu Xiu’s face flushed, but even her ears were red. Tan Pei, who had just been oblivious to the people around him, now felt a little uncomfortable and relaxed his arms a little bit.
”Ahem,” Tan Pei cleared his throat, “Dali…”
”How about we hold a party to tell everyone that you’re back?” Wu Xiu pinched Tan Pei’s arm and took the lead.
After saying that, she turned around and said, “You are not allowed to object!”
Tan Pei smiled helplessly and dotingly, “Okay, I’ll listen to you, okay?”
”No need for that.” To everyone’s surprise, it was Tan Li who raised the objection.
Tan Li: The thought of hosting a banquet makes me feel tired.
She is a retired elderly person who cannot stand this kind of hardship.
”I think it’s good like this now.” Tan Li said honestly, “Like my father said, it would be inappropriate if the company’s stock price was affected after the announcement.”
What if her dividends are also affected? It’s not worth it for that little bit of fame.
Tan Pei looked at Tan Li in surprise.
”Hiss——” Just when he was halfway through his thought, someone pinched his lower back hard.
Wu Xiu ignored Tan Pei’s grievances and said, “No!”
”Da Li, you don’t have to think about this!” Wu Xiu imagined a short essay written by Tan Li in secret, and was worried that Tan Li would have reservations because of Tan Pei’s words. “Your father will naturally solve those problems. You just need to be your parents’ daughter peacefully.”
”If mom and dad don’t have the ability to make you happy for the rest of your life, then mom and dad are incompetent!”
As she spoke, Wu Xiu increased the strength of her hands, “Aren’t I right?”
”Yes! Honey, you are right!” Tan Pei endured the pain of his waist being pinched by someone’s hand, “Dali, don’t worry about these, Daddy will take care of it.”
”Just do what your mother wants.”
Tan Li: …Look at that useless little look. Tan Pei doesn’t care about her thoughts at all. He only cares about Wu Xiu’s feelings.
[A love-brained boss, the old man’s character is quite fashionable. 】
Tan Pei was stunned for a moment. For the first time, he felt that Tan Li was quite sensible: It is natural for a man to love his wife.
Seeing that Tan Li was still lazy and uninterested, Wu Xiu thought for a moment and said, “Don’t worry, Dali. Mom will prepare everything for the banquet. You just need to show up and eat and drink.”
“It’s very simple and easy.”
Tan Li: “…Okay.”
Since the crybaby said so, she could only agree reluctantly.
After getting Tan Li’s approval, not only Wu Xiu jumped up happily, but even Tan Xinman beside her smiled and breathed a sigh of relief.
Tan Li pulled the corner of her mouth——
[It’s not easy to make these two women happy. 】
Wu Xiu: …
Tan Xinman: …
Tan Pei raised his eyes to look at Tan Li and nodded silently.
**
Tan Li, who found it extremely difficult to coax people, rewarded herself by having someone put up her own parasol in the garden the next day and then she dived into the soft embrace of a lounge chair.
Tan Li: She is so tired from slacking off at work and participating in family activities. She needs to lie down for a day to relax.
Today, no one can separate her from the recliner!
Fortunately, Wu Xiu was busy preparing the guest list for the banquet, and Tan Pei was with her.
Tan Xinman, on the other hand, felt that Tan Li probably didn’t like seeing her hanging around her. Not only was she elusive at home during normal times, but she also went out early on weekend mornings.
Tan Li enjoyed the large lawn in the garden alone, with the sound of wind in her ears——
”Why are you here again?” Tan Li even forgot about love and peace and rolled her eyes to the sky.
Ah Heng approached slowly in a wheelchair, feeling as if he were treating someone else’s garden as his own.
After he arrived, he threw a file bag directly into Tan Li’s arms, “Zhang Yuanhe’s information.”
Tan Li reflexively caught the unknown object flying towards her: ???
”Who?” She was a little confused and threw the file bag back to Ah Heng, “Don’t throw things at me next time.”
To avoid someone accidentally losing some limbs.
Even if his legs were broken, she would still fight to the death. If the injuries got worse, she was afraid that she would just slit his throat with a knife.
Ah Heng had a cold face when he came, but when he saw that Tan Li didn’t remember who Zhang Yuanhe was, the coldness in his face melted a little.
”Got it.” He put the file bag away, trying not to see it.
After saying that, there was nothing else to say, just stayed there quietly.
Tan Li: “…What on earth are you doing here?”
”Let you watch.” Ah Heng said calmly, “So that you can stop me from seeking death.”
…
For a moment, Tan Li even felt a little regretful. Why did she meddle in other people’s business and rescue such a thing from the rooftop?
Tan Li: “Are you free?”
”Yeah.” Ah Heng smiled sinisterly, “What kind of work can a disabled person like me do?”
Tan Li glanced at his legs and fell back into the recliner, “Your legs are hopeless.”
”…” Ah Heng’s eyes suddenly darkened, and the corners of his mouth curved up, “I know.”
”I know better than anyone that my legs are totally broken.”
There was an indescribable weirdness in his smile, “You are quite direct.”
”Most people would tell me not to give up and that there is always hope, and that kind of nonsense.”
Ah Heng looked like he was in a good mood to talk about this, but Tan Li picked up her phone.
Cheerful music was heard.
Tan Li logged in on time, collected the limited-time physical strength reward at noon in the game interface, and prepared to buy Letong a new set of clothes.
Seeing that she was only concentrating on her phone and ignoring him, Ah Heng’s strange smile slowly disappeared and returned to an expressionless look.
”For some people, the word ‘hope’ is more painful than despair.” Tan Li didn’t raise her head, but her voice came calmly, “Don’t be trapped by hope.”
Ah Heng was stunned.
”Hey,” Tan Li suddenly came over with her phone, “help me see which dress looks good.”
Ah Heng’s whole body froze, but when he saw the content on Tan Li’s mobile phone screen, he couldn’t help laughing.
”I didn’t know you were playing such a girly game.” Ah Heng started complaining whenever he got the chance.
Tan Li glared at him and said, “What do you know? This is a great masterpiece!”
”Forget it, forget it. Instead of relying on your judgment, I might as well rely on myself.”
As soon as he finished speaking, Ah Heng pointed his finger at a piece of clothing, “This one.”
It was still the same hand with amazing bone structure, but it was paler and thinner than when I first saw it. Now, after a period of recuperation, it was as white as jade and as smooth as bamboo.
There was almost no hesitation or pause. In just a few seconds, Ah Heng had matched an outfit for Letong and even added matching makeup.
Ah Heng: “When you choose clothes, you can’t just look at the complexity, you also have to see if it suits the person.”
”Look at her appearance, does it match a dress studded with diamonds?” Ah Heng said in a normal tone, but his words showed his disdain for Tan Li’s initial matching style for Letong. “If she must wear a dress, she would be more suitable for a temperamental or pretty type.”
Tan Li was amazed at how Le Tong looked like a completely different person after being matched with Ah Heng’s clothes, and her eyes trembled slightly.
”You can’t assume that everyone else is the same as you just because you are suitable for such a gorgeous and complicated dress…!” Ah Heng had only said half of his words when his hand, along with the cell phone, was held in Tan Li’s palm.
Tan Li: “Ah Heng, can you be Le Tong’s image designer?”
”I’ll give you a million every month, no! Ten million!”
Ah Heng was so angry that he laughed, “I don’t need that little money.”
”Then how much do you want?” Tan Li added without hesitation, “Name a price, and I’ll find a way to get it for you!”
Ah Heng originally thought that Tan Li was joking, but now seeing that she looked more serious than ever, he gradually calmed down.
He took a serious look at the game character on Tan Li’s phone, only to find that he had just accidentally overlooked a problem –
This game character is so much like a real person.
It’s not the kind of face-sculpting that resembles a celebrity but not the spirit, but it’s the same person, from skin to bones and blood, who is so vivid that he seems like someone who really exists in this world.
Tan Li’s attitude was also different from usual, she wasn’t lazy on the surface, but inside…
”No need.” Ah Heng didn’t realize that his voice had softened.
He pulled out his phone and said, “Add me your contact information for a free consultation.”
Tan Li:!
”Ah Heng! You are such a good boy!” Tan Li looked relieved.
Ah Heng’s face darkened instantly, “Forget it, I’m still too young and don’t have enough experience.”
Having said that, he was about to take back the phone.
”Hey, stop it!” Tan Li quickly held his hand down, “I won’t call you anymore, I won’t call you kid anymore!”
”Also, don’t call me young man, little brother, or child, etc.” Ah Heng took the opportunity to make his demands.
Tan Li was stumped, “…then what else can I call you?”
”Just Ah Heng.”
The two looked at each other for a moment, and finally, under Ah Heng’s firm gaze, Tan Li was defeated.
Okay, kids don’t like being called kids. For Letong, it’s understandable.
”Then I will call you Ah Heng from now on.” Tan Li seemed a little confused, but was extremely serious about the agreement.
Ah Heng nodded with satisfaction.
While adding Tan Li’s contact information, he kindly reminded her, “But your game probably won’t be running for much longer.”
