Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
All the servants present were stunned. Director Li, who had always been cold and aloof, had actually made a girl from the countryside become the eldest daughter of the Li Family!
In the entire city, everyone knew of Li Jingran’s social status. At such a young age, he was already in possession of hundreds of millions of assets. He had monopolized political and business power by himself and had the ability to ‘call the wind and summon the rain.’
Over the years, there had been countless women who wanted to get close to him. Among them were the daughters of wealthy businessmen and socialites from wealthy families. However, he had never gotten close to women and did not have any women by his side.
The servants in the house, including the old housekeeper who had stayed in the Li family for decades, carefully examined Xu Wanwan.
This young girl had only been in the Xu family for a few days. What exactly did she do to Li Jingran? How did she suddenly become the eldest miss of the Li family?
Xu Wanwan’s heart could not help but beat heavily.
Li Jingran actually said that she was the eldest daughter of the Li family.
For someone who had been living under someone else’s roof since she was young and could read people’s expressions, this was something that she didn’t even dare to think about.
Did this mean that she would no longer have to read people’s expressions and be wronged by others?
Her heart felt sour and soft, and she looked at Li Jingran with gratitude. “Thank you.”
Li Jingran looked at the girl in front of him. Her eyes were bright and clear, different from those of the other women who had approached him.
Xu Wanwan was happy in her heart, and she wanted to do something to repay Li Jingran.
She immediately stood up, scooped up a bowl of porridge, and carefully placed it in front of Li Jingran. She smiled and said, “Brother, eat it while it’s hot.”
Li Jingran looked at the girl’s fawning expression and could not help but frown slightly. “Don’t call me Brother in the future, and you don’t have to serve me.”
Xu Wan was stunned, and her eyes curved. “Okay.”
After she sat down, she picked up a small piece of bread and took small bites.
If she didn’t call him Brother, then what should she call him?
Director Li? Boss Li? Li Jingran?
Xu Wanwan bit her lips and felt that these names were not appropriate.
“Why aren’t you eating?”
The man’s magnetic voice instantly pulled her back to her thoughts. Xu Wanwan looked up and subconsciously said, “Brother… No, Mister Li.”
Li Jingran nodded in satisfaction. “Hm?”
“I’m full.” Xu Wanwan swallowed the last piece of bread and smiled at the man. “Are you satisfied with today’s breakfast? I’ll make you anything you want to eat next time.”
Li Jingran recalled the aftertaste of the hot porridge, and the corners of his lips unconsciously curled up. “I’m satisfied.”
Xu Wanwan tucked her loose hair behind her ears, and the corners of her mouth curled up even more. “As long as you’re satisfied.”
Li Jingran laughed lightly.
Why did he feel that this girl was like an easily satisfied little cook?
The housekeeper looked at the time on the wall and could not help but walk forward to remind him, “Director Li, it’s already time for you to go to work.”
Li Jingran raised his wrist to look at her, then stood up. “I’m going to work.”
Xu Wanwan did not stay idle either. She stood up with the man and walked him to the door. She smiled and waved her hand. “I’ll wait for you at home!”
Li Jingran stood at the side of the car and looked at the girl waving at the door. His thin lips curved slightly.
The driver at the side could not help but widen his eyes when he saw this scene.
Was he seeing things? Director Li actually smiled?
The housekeeper gave the driver a meaningful look and looked at Xu Wanwan with a kind face.
It seemed that this girl was not simple. She could actually make Director Li, who did not smile, smile.
Seeing that Li Jingran got into the car and left, Xu Wanwan heaved a sigh of relief. She turned around and went back to her room.
She had nothing better to do. Just as she was about to go to the kitchen to clean up, the two servants who had previously made things difficult for her stopped her.
“Eldest Miss, it’s all our fault for not recognizing Mount Tai. Please don’t take what we said this morning to heart.”
“Yes, we will definitely correct ourselves in the future. Can you forgive us?”
Xu Wanwan was not used to being suddenly supported by others, so she smiled kindly and said, “It’s alright. I didn’t take these things to heart.”
The two servants observed Xu Wanwan’s expression. Seeing that she did not seem angry, they finally heaved a sigh of relief.
If they had known that this young lady from the countryside was so powerful, they would not have dared to speak such nonsense.
Xu Wanwan rolled up her sleeves and took the plates from the servants. “Let me help you.”
The two servants panicked and tried to stop her.
“No, no, no. Leave this matter to us servants. Go and rest.”
Xu Wanwan pursed her lips. Seeing that the two of them were unwilling to let go, she had no choice but to give up.
Feeling bored, she returned to her room and took out an old-fashioned phone from her bag.
The raised white keys on the cellphone strongly bore its age. Xu Wanwan found a charger, connected the plug, and pressed the power button.
After a while, the phone’s boot-up ringtone rang heavily.
Xu Wanwan held the phone and laid on the bed, ready to play a song.
“Ding-dong!”
A message from an unknown number popped up on the phone screen.
“I’m Zhao Zixuan. I’d like to have a good talk with you.”
When she saw Zhao Zixuan’s name, Xu Wanwan could not help but frown. She replied coldly, “I don’t know you.”
Who knew that the person on the other side did not have any intention of backing down. He sent a long string of messages, one after another.
“Xu Wanwan, have you forgotten my identity? I’m your fiancé! I can talk to you personally and that’s because I’m giving Yueyue some face. I advise you not to be ungrateful!”
Xu Wanwan put down her phone. She did not want to see this annoying message again.
The ding-dong-ding-dong continued to sound off from her phone. It was so noisy that no one could be at peace.
Xu Wanwan thought that if she ignored Zhao Zixuan, he would stop harassing her very soon.
Ten minutes had passed, but he had no intention of stopping.
Xu Wanwan could not take it anymore. She opened her phone, clicked into the dialog box, and typed a long string of “greetings” on it.
Before she could send it out, another string of unpleasant messages came from the other side.
“Yueyue is right. You’re a person who hates the poor and loves the rich. You’ve been so smug since you hooked up with the rich! Don’t forget that you’re still my fiancée. I have plenty of ways to torture you. Tell me, if the man you hooked up with knew that you already had a fiancé, would he still help you?”
Xu Wanwan deleted a long string of words and directly sent a message, “What do you want to do?”
On the other end of the phone, Zhao Zixuan was flustered and exasperated. Looking at Xu Wanwan’s disdainful reply, his heart felt even more unbalanced.
“Heh, are you afraid? You better not reject me, or else I’ll expose the news of you betraying me to the public. When that time comes, everyone will know that you’re a promiscuous person.”
Xu Wanwan’s expression was calm as she replied with a smile.
This man really took himself seriously.
If she had not been cursed in her previous life, she would not even have looked at him.
Fortunately, she came to her senses in this life and could stay as far away from him as possible.
She lay on the bed to calm herself down for a while. Suddenly, she thought of Zhao Zixuan’s threat to break off the engagement, and her heart began to worry again.
Although she does not care about Zhao Zixuan breaking off the marriage, this will implicate Li Jingran.
