Chapter 372: Initiative

“Lin Miao.”

Li Jingjing’s face was so handsome that people couldn’t take their eyes off her. Lin Miao kept staring at him while he was talking.

“You know how I feel about you. We grew up together. I treat you like a brother. I hope you can understand.”

Li Jingjing told him the truth. He didn’t want to lie to Lin Miao and give her hope, in case the misunderstanding got deeper and it would be difficult to explain.

Lin Miao felt a little helpless and wronged. She slowly approached Li Jingjing and continued to ask carefully,”

“Brother Yingluo, is that all? Then I’ll call you Li Jingjing from now on and not brother, okay?”

Lin Miao’s appearance, when she wasn’t fierce and didn’t make a scene, and when she spoke softly in grievance, it made her look even more lovely and pitiful.

Li Jingjing also took the initiative to step forward and gently patted Lin Miao’s shoulder, saying,”

“You know that’s not the reason. Lin Miao, let’s go back. The old man will be worried if we stay here for too long. I don’t know what he will think.”

Lin Miao lowered her head. At this time, she was really sad. Her eyes were red, but she held it in, not wanting Li Jingjing to see her fragile appearance.

Although Li Jingjing had always refused Lin Miao’s approach, he could feel Lin Miao’s sacrifice for him. He also understood Lin Miao’s sadness and disappointment at this time.

AI! She was still a little girl next door who had not grown up.

Li Jingjing couldn’t explain why, but a feeling of pity welled up in her heart. He took the initiative to walk up to Lin Miao and hug her.

Lin Miao only lowered her head and didn’t interact with him.

She could feel that Li Jingjing’s hug wasn’t out of love or fondness. It was probably just guilt. He felt guilty.

Lin Miao was still motionless, and he couldn’t guess what she was thinking.

More than ten minutes had passed. Li Jingjing didn’t want the two old people in the private room to think too much, so she took Lin Miao’s hand and walked back.

As he walked, he reminded Lin Miao in a serious voice,”

“Let’s go back for dinner! We’re just having a meal tonight, so don’t say anything. I really have something urgent to do later, so I won’t be staying for long. I’ll tell you the truth later. ”

After saying this, they were almost at the door. Lin ran didn’t even have the time or opportunity to ask questions before Li Jingjing pulled her into the private room.

The two old men were still chatting happily about their past. When they saw li Miaomiao and Lin Miao coming back together, they smiled and asked casually,”

“You’re back. Why did you take so long?”

“It’s fine. I just saw a vegetable garden outside with Lin Miao. I grew some vegetables myself. Ask the waiter to add more vegetables,” said Wang Yao.

Li Jingjing beckoned for the waiter to come in.”

“Here, add one more dish of stir-fried beef with beans.”

The waiter registered and went out to report.

This trick was indeed effective. It successfully diverted the old man’s attention, and everyone began to eat.

The waiter brought four white wine glasses and a pot of tonic wine made from medicinal herbs.

“Everyone, pour it. Men and women are equal. Let’s drink together!” Old master Li asked the waiter to pour him some wine.

“Come, come, come, everyone, let’s have a toast! Everything went smoothly!”

Old master Li took the lead and everyone clinked their glasses together, drinking three glasses of wine in a row.

After drinking, old master Li gave his son, li Qianqian, a look.

Of course, Li Jingjing understood. Her father had asked her to give a toast to old master Lin. It was nothing. It was only right.

Li Jingjing took the initiative to fill old master Lin’s glass. She stood up and said politely,”

“Uncle Lin, I’ll toast this to you. I wish you good health and happiness every day!”

“Good! Here’s a toast!”

Old master Lin was very forthright, and with a bright smile on his face, he downed the glass in one go.

In order to finish the toast as soon as possible, Li Jingjing poured another glass for her old man.

“Dad, I’ll also give you a toast. I wish you good health and good luck in everything!”

Old master Li smiled and said,”

“Good, this kid, I rarely drink with you. Let’s have a toast. Dad also wishes you to get married soon and let us old people stop thinking about you young people!”

Old master Li had a profound meaning. He looked at Lin Miao, who was sitting next to Li Jingjing, and the more he looked at her, the more he liked her. She looked more and more like his daughter-in-law.

When this topic was brought up, old master Lin’s face was full of smiles. He had watched Li Jingjing grow up and was very satisfied with her ability and character.

The Li family and the Lin family had also mentioned Li Jingjing and Lin Miao’s marriage.

In their hearts, this was very simple. It was something that would happen naturally.

Now that the child had grown up, it was time for him to have a family. All that was left was for the two parties to bring it up face to face and spend some time on the formalities.

Li Jingjing knew that this would be brought up at dinner. Before they could explain it clearly, he quickly stood up and wanted to toast the two old men again.

Li Jingjing looked at Lin Miao, who was sitting beside her, thinking about something. She turned and said,”

“Lin Miao, let’s toast to the two old people.”

Lin Jing was stunned for a moment, then obediently stood up with li Qianqian. She didn’t know what game he was playing, but he had already made his position clear to her in the garden.

Tonight’s mission was not to offend the old man, neither did he admit nor deny it. He even said that he had an urgent matter to deal with, which meant that he should cooperate with him and not cause trouble.

In his heart, the more Lin Miao cared about Li Jingjing, the more she didn’t dare to go against his will.

It wasn’t easy to control a relationship. If she didn’t cooperate with him according to Li Jingjing’s words, she would probably have no room to speak in the future.

Alright, wasn’t it just acting in front of the old man? it wasn’t that complicated.

Lin kui didn’t say much, but politely smiled and said,”

“I also want to toast uncle li and dad. I wish you a long and healthy life!”

“Good, good. Lin Miao has grown up. She’s becoming more and more sensible. She’s a lady from a wealthy family. Not bad. Uncle li will be waiting for your good news.”

After old master Li finished speaking, he downed a glass of wine.

The two old men looked at each other and laughed.

Old master Lin also looked at Li Jingjing and took the opportunity to smile.”

“It seems that things are going smoothly. Will you become family soon?”

It wasn’t good for Li Jingjing to object in front of her father. He was worried that it would be disadvantageous to Chi luexi, who was still recuperating in the hospital.

Seeing that Lin Miao was still silent, Li Jingjing gently touched Lin Miao’s foot under the table.

Lin Miao suddenly understood. If she didn’t want to make Li Jingjing too embarrassed tonight, giving him face was still giving her face.

Moreover, Lin Miao could feel that Li Jingjing wasn’t cold-blooded and didn’t care about him at all. He had even taken the initiative to hug her just now.

But she controlled herself and didn’t lie on his body and cry pitifully.

Lin Miao knew that the restraint and control she had at that time was so that when they met again in the future, she would still have something to say and would still be able to take the initiative.
