“You’re asking me how long I have to take care of her? Until the day I die.”
Li Tingshen’s face darkened.
Two seconds later, Lian Lili smiled slowly.
“It’s fine as long as you’re like before. Let nature take its course. I’m just reminding you casually. If I didn’t remind you, would you leave Xu’er alone? With the Ye family around, you shouldn’t have much use.”
“Besides, your focus is on your studies and company management. I know that.”
!!
“Don’t feel pressured. I didn’t force you to do anything.”
Lian Lili’s attitude had suddenly changed and her emotions were erratic. Li Tingshen seemed to be used to it. He pulled the chair away and went upstairs.
The smile on Lian Lili’s face faded and her lips tightened.
The servant at the side hesitated. “Madam, you know that Young Master has always valued your health. It’s better not to say those unlucky words in the future…”
Lian Lili’s eyes curved and the corners of her lips relaxed. “I can only rely on this to control him.”
With that, she turned and left.
She was glad that he still cared about her. He cared a lot, and it might even be a bottom line that could not be touched.
Otherwise…
Besides her, who else could control him?
Did he look like someone who was restrained by someone?
The servant shook her head silently.
…
The next day, Li Tingshen sent Lian Lili to the airport personally.
Liang Xuer was there too.
She had received a call from Lian Lili last night, telling her that she had left this morning.
She arrived at the Li residence early in the morning.
Lian Lili held Liang Xuer’s hand and chatted for a long time at the airport. She gave her many reminders and teased her.
From the beginning to the end, Li Tingshen remained silent.
It was not until it was about time that Lian Lili began to queue for the customs.
As she waved goodbye, she adjusted the shawl in her hand and smiled at Li Tingshen. “Help me take good care of Xu’er.”
It was as if the stalemate between the mother and son yesterday had never happened.
Li Tingshen looked at Lian Lili expressionlessly and grunted.
Lian Lili looked satisfied and didn’t say anything else.
On the way back, Liang Xuer sat in the passenger seat. Her gaze landed on Li Tingshen, who was driving.
The two of them didn’t speak until they were about to reach home. She said nervously, “Yesterday… how do you feel? I… I mean, is it difficult to manage the company?”
Li Tingshen drove for a while before saying calmly, “Anyone can be the boss.”
Liang Xuer bit her lip.
She clasped her hands together and blushed.
She could tell that Li Tingshen was mocking her for being too stupid.
“I plan to study business management. I can help you in the future…”
“No need.” Li Tingshen’s voice sounded like it was covered in a layer of ice.
The silence was oppressive.
“You can have thousands of reasons to do what you want, but don’t use me as a reason. Life is your own, and I don’t have the energy to be responsible for it.”
Liang Xuer’s face turned pale. “I… didn’t…”
Li Tingshen suddenly laughed.
They stopped at a red light.
He turned to look at her. His long and narrow eyes were dark, as if he was smiling, but it was more like ice.
“Yes, you didn’t do anything, but you’re the most annoying person to me.”
Liang Xuer’s face drained of all color.
Liang Xuer gripped her bag tightly and lowered her head, her lips trembling uncontrollably.
“Why?” She raised her head to look at Li Tingshen, but she only saw his cold profile. He held the steering wheel with one hand and the car rushed out as if he didn’t hear her.
Liang Xuer’s head buzzed. There were too many grievances and unwillingness in her heart.
After a long while, he said,
“Ever since I returned to the Ye family, what have I done for you to hate me so much?”
“Compared to Ye Qingqiu, I’m not competitive or unreasonable. I’m not like a sticky plaster that sticks to you, nor will I shamelessly cling to you. The chances of us meeting can be counted on one hand. In the end, in your heart, is Ye Qingqiu more likable than me? Why? Or do you actually like her?”
Li Tingshen’s face was filled with impatience. His unconcealed expression seemed to be intentional.
“Can you not keep talking about her?”
“Then why do you hate me?!”
The docile Liang Xuer, who had always remembered that she was the daughter of the Ye family, seemed to have lost control.
After a low growl, there was dead silence in the car.
The contrast was too obvious.
She realized that she had lost her composure, but she knew that she couldn’t take it back. She bit her lips and waited for an answer.
The car drove towards the Ye residence.
