Mrs. Ou took a deep breath and said, "Qingheng, Yao Yiyina, do you really have no news at all?"
Ou Qingheng shook his head.
The disappointment in Mrs. Ou's eyes was obvious.
Ou's father said: "Yazhu, give us all some time, I believe An An will come back."
Mrs. Ou just buried her head in eating, feeling very unhappy. This family had changed too much because of An An's departure. She didn't want to make the whole family depressed because of her loss. This was not what she wanted to see. of.
Because of Mrs. Ou's silence, the atmosphere in the main house of the Ou family suddenly condensed.
The three people who returned to Li's house searched and found no Li Haoran. Mrs. Li hurriedly called the servant and said, "Xiao Qian, is the young master back?"
"Go back to Madam, the young master hasn't come back yet." The servant said matter-of-factly.
Mrs. Li wrinkled her pretty nose and waved her hand to indicate that the servant could go down.
She thought for a while, then took out her mobile phone and dialed Li Haoran's phone number, and she finally got through.
"Haoran, where are you? It's been five days since you came back from Beijing. Why don't you go home to see your grandfather and parents?" Mrs. Li said a little dissatisfied.
Li Haoran said on the phone: "Mom, I'm driving home now. I'll be there in a moment."
Mrs. Li's face looked better and she said, "Then drive carefully. By the way, have you eaten? I'll ask the servant to prepare something delicious for you."
"Mom, don't bother. I've already eaten. You and grandpa can eat it. You don't have to wait for me." Li Haoran said.
"Okay, drive carefully."
After hanging up the phone, Mrs. Li said: "Dad, Haoran will be back soon."
Mr. Li had a smile on his face and said, "It'll be good when you come back."
After half an hour, Li Haoran finally drove back to the main house of the Li family. After parking the car, a servant came in and said, "Master, Master, Madam, the young master is back."
Mrs. Li stood up from the sofa and walked quickly to the door of the hall, just as Li Haoran also walked in from the outside.
Mrs. Li held his hand and looked from head to foot. She was really relieved when she saw that he was not injured.
"Haoran, why are you related to the heir of the Ou family? You disappeared for five days and almost scared your mother to death. If your grandfather hadn't been so proud that he went to the Ou family in person to ask for someone, I'm afraid Ou Qing Heng doesn't want to let you go yet." Mrs. Li said a little complaining.
Li Haoran walked up to Mr. Li and called out respectfully: "Grandpa."
Mr. Li obviously liked his grandson Li Haoran very much and said with a smile: "It's good to be back. Don't be so naughty again."
"I understand, grandpa, it's my grandson's fault that you keep worrying." Li Haoran said.
Mr. Li stood up from the sofa, walked to Li Haoran on crutches, and said, "The Ou boy invites you over. Isn't he deliberately trying to embarrass you?"
Li Haoran shook his head and said with a smile: "Grandpa, you always misunderstood. Ou Qingheng and I have known each other for a long time. He just called me over because he wanted to ask me something. He really didn't kidnap me as you thought. No matter how bad I am, It’s impossible to be kidnapped by someone casually. Wouldn’t that be a failure of my grandfather’s hard work of sending famous teachers to teach me since I was a child.”
Mr. Li looked at her carefully, as if he could tell whether he was telling the truth from his eyes.
Li Haoran's expression was magnanimous.
Mr. Li raised his hand and patted his shoulder and said: "It seems that I, an old man, have misunderstood this young man. I have to find time to apologize to the younger man some other time. We are the elders and we cannot arbitrarily accuse others. "
Li Haoran helped the person sit down and said: "Grandpa, I can just go and tell him about this. I came back from Beijing five days ago. Ou Qingheng did send someone to pick me up, but I left after a while. Then a boss I worked with in publishing called and invited me to come and play. I thought that the company had nothing important to do for the time being, so I left. When I got on the yacht and went out to sea, I realized that my phone had run out of battery. I was thinking about you, grandpa. It took ten days and a half for him to call me, so I didn’t even think of calling you to let you know he’s okay.”
Mr. Li did not investigate the authenticity of his words. He just said: "It's understandable that young people like to play this. You have been playing for five days and you are tired. Go up and take a bath and have a good sleep. My health is also good." I'm tired and want to go up and have a rest."
Li Haoran supported Mr. Li and said, "Grandpa, I will take you up."
After sending Mr. Li upstairs and then back down, Mrs. Li said: "Haoran, you go up and take a bath too. Mom will make you a glass of milk to wake up later."
"Thank you, Mom."
Li Haoran went upstairs and took a hot bath. When he got out of the bathroom, there was a knock on the door. He went to open the door. Sure enough, standing outside was Mrs. Li holding milk.
Mrs. Li walked in and handed the milk in her hand to Li Haoran. After Li Haoran finished drinking, she said straight to the point: "Haoran, tell mom honestly, is it because of Yao Ting's incident that Ou Qingheng invited you over?"
Li Haoran's brows wrinkled, but it was quickly smoothed over.
He glanced at Mrs. Li thoughtfully and said, "Mom, you think too much."
"Am I overthinking it? Mom told you before not to offend Ou Qingheng because of Yao Ting, and then harm the Li family. What on earth do you think? You have to pay for the entire Li family. You are the only one who is willing to do so." Mrs. Li wrinkled her straight nose. Even if she was blaming others, her voice was as soft as a warbler, which did not sound harsh to human ears.
Li Haoran looked down at Mrs. Li, who looked very similar to him, and said, "Mom, I will take care of this matter. Don't worry."
Mrs. Li was originally worried that Li Haoran did not have such a big temper, but Li Haoran's attitude was that he did not want her to interfere too much, and her anger gradually increased.
"Haoran, what's your attitude? Don't forget that I am your mother."
"Mom, I always remember, and I respect you and love you from the bottom of my heart. I have never asked for your permission, but I beg you to stop being so aggressive, okay? How can Ou Qingheng find my villa in Beijing so quickly? You and I know whose masterpiece it is."
Mrs. Li was really sad now. She looked at Li Haoran aggrievedly. This son she had raised with great hardships had always been respectful and filial to her. Now he was suspicious of her because of a woman. This kind of How can Mrs. Li not be sad if she forgets her mother's behavior after marrying her daughter-in-law.
"Haoran, now that you have Yao Ting, you dare to contradict your mother because of her, right?"
Li Haoran took a deep breath, knowing that his tone just now was not good: "Mom, I'm sorry, it was my fault just now, but I don't want you to interfere in this matter. I am old enough and can handle emergencies very well. Please be patient As your noble lady, as for those complicated matters, you can let me handle them alone, okay?"
Mrs. Li raised her pretty eyebrows and her attitude became tougher: "What if mom says no?"
Li Haoran raised his hand and rubbed his forehead, and said: "Mom, if you think it's not a big deal for your son to anger Ou Qingheng, then you can go and break the news. The company I worked so hard to maintain will be destroyed." There is nothing to say.”
Mrs. Li was silent.
Li Haoran glanced at him, moved with emotion, and said rationally: "Mom, I really love Tingting, and I am dating her on the premise of getting married. This is not a joke. Please take care of me." Accept her on face terms, you two are the women I care about most, and without either of you, I won't be happy."
There was a hint of emotion on Mrs. Li's face, but that didn't mean she accepted Yao Ting.
"I can allow you to play with her, but the daughter-in-law I recognize must be Jiaqi. Even if you ask your grandfather for help, you will still have the same attitude. Your grandfather seems to be easy to talk to, but he is definitely an old fox who is difficult to conquer. Li's The group is what he worked hard to build, and he will not allow you to marry a woman who is not helpful to the company at all, so you should stop worrying about it."
Li Haoran's face turned a little gloomy, because he knew that what Mrs. Li said was the truth.
"Haoran, you are a smart man. Don't fall for women. People like ours sometimes have to give up some things, such as feelings and marriage. These are all illusory." Mrs. Li looked at Li Haoran and said solemnly Said the matter.
Li Haoran clenched and loosened his fists, feeling slightly uncomfortable.
"Mom, with my ability, I can make the company strong and big. I don't need to marry a wealthy lady to make it better. Moreover, Tingting is also very good. She has become a best-selling author through her own efforts and earns a lot of money. She is an independent and good girl. I don’t think she is any worse than other daughters.” Compared with other daughters who only know how to eat, drink and have fun, he prefers Yao Ting’s independence. Although freelance writing sometimes leaves the crowd, However, her thinking ability is very good and her articulation is also very clever. This may be related to her writing brain circuit which is a bit unrestrained.
"But even though she is a best-selling author, in the final analysis she is still an ordinary girl with no connections. What do you think a girl like this can do for you? Write a few novels for you to publish, or write a few short stories to make you happy at night? "
Li Haoran was silent.
On this matter, he and Mrs. Li had completely different views. They both held their own opinions, and arguing too much was just a waste of words.
"Mom, I don't want to argue with you. You can go out. I want to take a nap." Li Haoran simply issued an eviction order.
Mrs. Li didn't want to push the person too hard, so she said, "Okay, you have a good rest."
When she reached the door, Mrs. Li stopped again and said: "Haoran, I'm very dissatisfied with Yao Ting. I can allow you to date her, but the person you marry must be Jiaqi, otherwise don't blame mom for what she did." No matter what extreme thing happens, you don't want to have your mother get into trouble because of a daughter." After saying that, Mrs. Li walked out.
Li Haoran only felt a dull pain in his head.
After standing there for a long time, he walked to the window and called Yao Ting. He said a few words to her, told her to have a good rest, and then hung up the phone.
Looking at the bright moon outside, Li Haoran fell silent. With the Li family's high threshold, I'm afraid it would not be so easy for him to marry Yao Ting.
But asking him to give up Yao Ting is definitely something he can't do. His love for Yao Ting has penetrated deep into his bones, otherwise he wouldn't have wasted three years on her like boiling a frog in warm water, just for the sake of a beautiful woman. One nodded in agreement.
