Chronicles of the Modern Empress Dowager

Chapter 589: Not happy

Views:

Although Li Wei worked hard to help organize the meeting, Li Jianbo still did not show up that day.

She followed the Tang family to the hot spring resort. Tang Ze remembered that Li Wei knew history and had a lot of research on various antiques, so he pulled Li Wei to talk about this aspect.

After arriving, Li Wei stayed by Tang's father's side, while Tang Shiyun met with several work partners for her father, helping him take care of work matters so that his father could rest as much as possible.

Tang Ze understood his daughter's efforts and discussed with her afterwards: "I think you are pretty good and can handle things independently. Otherwise, how about resigning from the TV station and going home to inherit the family business?"

Unexpectedly, Tang Shiyun said without hesitation: "I don't want it."

Tang Ze was not angry after hearing this. He smiled and pointed at his daughter and Li Wei and said, "Shiyun said you should be filial to me. This is how you should be filial."

Li Wei tried to smooth things over and said, "Uncle, please don't force yourself to make things difficult for others."

Tang Zedao: "Shiyun has been very obedient since she was a child, but this obedience only lasted until she entered high school. In her senior year of high school, she refused to fill out the application form I asked her to apply for. She had to apply for some art exam."

Tang Shiyun said: "I don't want to be arranged by you all my life. There is nothing wrong with living my own life."

Faced with such a daughter, Tang Ze lost his temper. Seeing the interaction between father and daughter, Li Wei missed Li Minghua a little. Although Li Minghua didn't have much ability, he was still a good father. It's a pity that the relationship between father and daughter is a little shallow.

Back when Li Wei was chatting with Tang Shiyun, Li Wei said intentionally or unintentionally: "Shiyun, you and my second brother are the same person."

"How do you say this?"

"The second brother also had the opportunity to inherit the family business, but unfortunately he gave it up and concentrated on being a doctor. This is the career he has always longed for. He has never given up and has been working hard for so many years."

"Oh? I really didn't expect it. But when someone really likes a profession, they will devote themselves more deliberately and really achieve results. It's no wonder that Dr. Li has a successful career at such a young age."

"Yes, my second brother is my lifelong role model." No matter who she mentioned her second brother to, Li Wei always looked proud.

This time it was unsuccessful, but it did not prevent Li Wei from creating a second chance. This time she invited the two of them to have dinner together, and the location was a high-end restaurant with an elegant environment. The two of them didn't doubt his presence and rushed to the restaurant respectively. They both arrived on time, so they met at the door of the restaurant.

"Anchor Tang?!" Li Jianbo looked surprised.

Tang Shiyun was also very confused: "Doctor Li!"

"Let's go in and talk..." Li Jianbo invited Tang Shiyun inside.

When they entered the restaurant, a waiter came to greet them. Li Jianbo announced Li Wei's name, and the waiter immediately invited them to sit down in a private room on the second floor. However, there was no one in the private room.

Li Jianbo asked the waiter in surprise: "Where is the woman who made the reservation from you? Why didn't she come?"

At this time, the mobile phone in Tang Shiyun's bag rang. It was Li Wei calling. Li Wei on the other end of the phone hurriedly said to Tang Shiyun: "Shiyun, are you and your second brother here?"

"We're all here and waiting for you."

"But what should I do, Shiyun? Something happened to me at work, and I can't leave now. Our leader stayed here to work overtime, so I might not be able to come. I've already ordered the food, but I don't know if they can prepare it in the kitchen. I have to ask you and my second brother to eat together, sorry, sorry!"

"You let me tell you what you are good at. In that case, just keep busy. You don't have to worry about things here."

"Oh, I'm really sorry. Please explain it to me and my second brother later. Please." Li Wei hurriedly hung up the phone after saying this. At this time, she was lying leisurely on her sofa. She picked up a magazine and flipped through it slowly. The huge, beautiful pictures in the magazine failed to attract her attention. All she could think about was the two people in the restaurant. She kept giving assists, but if the person involved didn't accept the move, it seemed that the matter was hopeless. She could only use this trick once, and at the same time, she hoped that everything would go according to her plan.

Li Wei couldn't say anything at the moment, and Li Jianbo immediately knew that all this was his sister's trick. At that time, he wanted to turn around and leave, but instead Tang Shiyun said, "Dr. Li, you're here, why don't you just eat. I heard Li Wei said that he has already ordered the food."

The waiter over there hurriedly said: "Two guests, please wait a moment and serve the food as soon as possible."

Li Jianbo saw Tang Shiyun sitting down as if nothing had happened. His words about leaving now seemed a bit unkind.

In order not to be too embarrassed, it was Tang Shiyun who broke the silence. Of course, the only topic they could talk about was Tang's father's illness.

Tang Shiyun told Li Jianbo with some distress: "Dad, he seems to have remembered a lot of things recently. In this case, the lost memories can be recovered soon, right?"

Li Jianbo replied: "Probably. It means that the impact on the brain is only temporary, which is a good thing."

"But sooner or later, he will find out about my mother. When he thinks about it, he will definitely blame us for deceiving him."

"There is nothing we can do about it. The old man will have to face it eventually, unless he never remembers it, but you can't really hide it from him forever. The old man's body will accept new tests, and you must be prepared."

This is what Tang Shiyun is most worried about at this stage.

The dinner ended in a hurry without lasting too long. After the meal, Li Jianbo said that he would send Tang Shiyun home. Tang Shiyun smiled and said: "Thank you Dr. Li for your kindness, but I have to go to another place, so please go back first."

Li Jianbo gave up and drove for a while. After passing a street intersection, he suddenly went to another road. He also has to go to another place first.

Li Wei was watching TV leisurely at home, when suddenly the doorbell rang. She went over and opened the door and saw Li Jianbo standing outside. Li Wei secretly thought, no good, the army is here to investigate.

Li Jianbo entered the room and did not sit down on the sofa. After Li Wei closed the door, he was still standing at the door without even taking off his shoes.

"Li Wei, what on earth do you want to do?"

"I... don't do anything." Li Wei looked innocent.

"I'm telling you, don't make your own decisions on some things. You know I hate being interfered with. If you still care about our brother-sister relationship, then don't meddle in other people's business."

"Oh, it's me who is meddling in other people's business." Li Wei bit his lip, and then said: "But second brother, I really hope you can be happy."

"Whether I am happy or not has nothing to do with you."

"Why doesn't it matter... Second brother, this is the only way I can help you and Shiyun. I will assist you and create opportunities for you. I really hope you can be together well..."

"Okay, stop meddling in my business. Who I am with and whether I am together or not is none of your business. Just be your Mrs. Zhao."

Li Jianbo dropped these words and slammed the door and left.
