Compared with Zhao Xianliang, Xie Yun is definitely a model of enlightened parents.
Most Chinese parents are relatively conservative about their children's love and sexual matters, and are not as open-minded as parents in Western countries. However, Xie Yun understands very well that sex is a part of human nature. Although Chinese parents are conservative, young people in this area of China Her sexual concepts are not at all behind those of Western countries, which is not a bad thing in her eyes. A scholar like her, an intellectual who comes from a scholarly family and really studies for the sake of studying, pursues respect for human nature in her thoughts. .
Since the last time she bumped into her daughter and Li Mu, Xie Yun knew in her heart that if she still wanted to stop this kind of thing at this stage, she would be deceiving herself. Even if she really stopped it, the damage to the child would be very serious, so her She had already accepted and acquiesced in the relationship between Zhao Ziqiu and Li Mu. Because of this, she went behind Zhao Xianliang's back and bought a house for Zhao Ziqiu in Yanjing.
Zhao Ziqiu has been home for more than a month on vacation and has never met Li Mu. Now she has finally come to expect Li Mu. They all say that a goodbye is better than a wedding. How can she not understand this? At the same time, she also understood Zhao Xianliang's character. When Li Mu came, he would definitely make Zhao Ziqiu look good. Under such circumstances, if Zhao Ziqiu wanted to stay up all night, that would be a dream. With his character, he would definitely blow up his lungs. .
Although Xie Yun also wanted to twist her husband's mind, it would be too much if her daughter stayed out all night regardless of him.
In this situation, the only way to fulfill his daughter's wish is to leave Li Mu at home.
Zhao Ziqiu also understood what his mother meant, and his face turned red with embarrassment. Thinking about it carefully, he couldn't help but thank his mother for her thoughtfulness. No matter what, this was the best solution.
At this moment, Li Mu, who was in Yanjing, felt a little worried.
When he went to Hangzhou to meet Zhao Ziqiu's parents for the first time, he always wanted to express something. Among other things, he always brought a souvenir to express his feelings, but Li Mu couldn't think of anything to give after much deliberation.
Zhao Ziqiu's family background is extremely good. Speaking of which, he can only be regarded as a nouveau riche. Zhao Ziqiu's family has achieved today's strength after so many years of accumulation, which proves that their consumption concepts, ideas, and food, clothing, and necessities are outstanding. They must be more particular than themselves.
In this case, Li Mu also knew what to give so as not to appear rude and not make Zhao Ziqiu's parents feel too shabby.
There are many luxury goods stores in Yanjing, and Li Mu is willing to spend tens of thousands of yuan to buy a brand bag for Zhao Ziqiu's mother, but he is afraid that what he can buy in Yanjing may not be appreciated by others.
After spending a long time shopping in Wangfujing, a place with more luxury goods in Yanjing, Li Mu couldn't make up his mind about what to give. Finally, after thinking about it, he felt that he still had to ask someone for advice.
Li Mu felt that the first thing to do about this kind of thing was to ask a woman. Secondly, the woman's family background must be good enough, preferably on par with Zhao Ziqiu's family. Only such people can truly understand that people like Zhao Ziqiu's parents, who are truly upper class, What kind of gift do you like
She was a girl and her family was very rich. Li Mu could only think of three people, the two sisters Du Fei and Du Wei, and that Lin Lin.
Li Mu and Lin Lin were not that familiar, so this person passed directly, so only Du Fei and Du Wei were left. Du Wei was too young and probably didn't know much about this, so Du Fei became the best choose.
Li Mu quickly called Du Fei and asked her: "If you give a gift to a couple in their forties, what would be more appropriate?"
Du Fei's first sentence was: "What are the conditions at home?"
It is certain that economic conditions determine the level of living.
Li Mu then said, "The kind that is extremely rich."
"Oh..." Du Fei said as soon as he heard this: "Then give me your heartfelt gift, preferably something exquisite, meaningful and special."
Li Mu said: "Can you give me a direct recommendation?"
Du Fei said: "If you're a man, how about you give me some jasmine tea? Yanjing's jasmine tea is a very famous specialty."
Li Mu said: "That couple lives in Hangzhou."
"Oh..." Du Fei said, "Then stop trying to do whatever you want. The two groups of people in China who are best at drinking tea are one in Hangzhou and the other in Yangcheng."
Li Mu said: "Then give me some ideas."
Du Fei asked again: "What are the temperaments of the two of them?"
Li Mu thought for a while and said, "The man is like a big boss, and the woman...is a bit like a lady."
Du Fei thought about it for a while and said: "Let's do this, you buy a good pen for the man. Montblanc's limited edition usually costs 20,000 to 300,000 yuan. Then buy a diamond brooch for the woman. Buy products from the top brands in Europe and the United States." , the price should be around two to three hundred thousand."
Li Mu was secretly stunned when he heard this. He was not one of those businessmen with primitive accumulation and years of rich life. Hundreds of thousands of pens and hundreds of thousands of brooches sounded a bit scary at first glance.
However, Li Mu quickly adjusted his mentality. Hundreds of thousands is not a big deal. The key is that the gift must be liked by the other party. After careful study, Du Fei's advice is indeed very good. Pens are a very necessary thing for entrepreneurs. , the better the pen, the more it will reflect your status, I believe Zhao Xianliang will definitely be useful; brooches have always been standard accessories for ladies in the West. It is said that the accessory that upper-class women in the West really love is brooches, although they are not big. , but also very meaningful.
So Li Mu asked her: "Where can I buy the two things you mentioned?"
Duffy said: "It's definitely not available in stores. I have a friend who makes these. I'll give you his phone number."
…
Li Mu's plane landed at Hangcheng Airport on time at five o'clock in the afternoon. Among the three people Wang Yuanlang, two were on the same flight as him, and the other one arrived in Hangzhou in advance. Before Li Mu arrived in Hangzhou, he had already The rental car was waiting at the airport.
Li Mu had zero communication with Wang Yuanlang and another bodyguard throughout the whole process, but these two people were always secretly protecting him not far away.
Walking to the exit alone, Li Mu saw Zhao Ziqiu and her mother Xie Yun waiting here.
Li Mu then walked quickly towards the two of them, and was recognized by Zhao Ziqiu before he even got there. Zhao Ziqiu, who was very happy, ran all the way to meet Li Mu, and threw himself into his arms when he arrived.
Li Mu wore a mask and whispered in her ear: "Little girl, do you miss me?"
Zhao Ziqiu kept nodding and said softly: "After waiting for you for so long, you are finally here."
Li Mu patted her back and said softly: "I'm sorry, I've been too busy before."
Zhao Ziqiu smiled slightly: "It's okay, I'm very satisfied if you can come."
Li Mu nodded and said, "I see Auntie is here too. Let's go over and say hello to Auntie."
Zhao Ziqiu took Li Mu's arm, and the two came to Xie Yun. Li Mu took off the ear loop on one side of the mask and said politely: "Hello, aunt."
Xie Yun nodded with a smile on her face: "Hello, you are welcome to come to the voyage." Then, she pointed to Li Mu's mask: "You'd better put it on, you are also a public figure after all."
Li Mu nodded slightly and put on the mask again.
Xie Yun said enthusiastically: "Your Uncle Zhao has already ordered food at the restaurant and is waiting for us. There is a bit of traffic jam entering the city right now. Let's go to the restaurant to eat first and then go home."
"Okay, it's up to you." Li Mu nodded, knowing that he was a guest, so he naturally followed Xie Yun's instructions.
Xie Yun drove Zhao Ziqiu here by herself. She drove her family's Bentley Hongzhang Yazhi. Being able to drive such a car in 2002 was definitely one of the best in China.
Li Mu didn't quite understand the connotation of super luxury cars, whether it was a Rolls-Royce or a Bentley. He was actually not very cold about it, but it was the first time in his two lives that he sat in a Bentley, especially sitting in the back seat of a Bentley. I found that ultra-luxury cars are really comfortable to sit in. They are especially suitable for riding in cars rather than driving.
On the way, Xie Yun asked Li Mu while driving: "Have you been to Hangzhou before?"
Li Mu nodded: "Been here once."
Xie Yun asked: "Where did you go last time?"
Li Mu said: "I just went to the West Lake and didn't go anywhere else."
Xie Yun smiled and said: "There are still many interesting places in Hangzhou. Why not stay in Hangzhou for a few more days this time, and Auntie will take you around."
Li Mu said awkwardly: "Thank you, auntie, but I'm afraid I won't be able to stay too long this time. There are too many things going on in Yanjing, so I decided to take a break from my busy schedule and come here. I should go back the day after tomorrow."
Xie Yun asked: "Are you still so busy now?"
Li Mu nodded and said: "Many projects have entered a critical stage now, and they may be busier than before."
Xie Yun sighed: "Although young people are more fulfilling if they are busy, don't let yourself be too tired."
Li Mu said hurriedly: "That's what Auntie said."
Xie Yunwu shook her head. She knew in her heart that people like Li Mu were born to be workaholics. They should be in the same category as her husband. Trying to slow him down a little would be more serious than killing him.
Zhao Ziqiu sat next to Li Mu and kept holding hands with Li Mu. Although he did not interrupt the conversation between his mother and Li Mu, he kept turning to look at Li Mu with deep love in his eyes. Xie Yun occasionally looked back from the rearview mirror in the car and saw Seeing my daughter's crazy look, I felt helpless and distressed. I thought to myself: The little girl is really discerning and has found such an outstanding young man. However, he is so busy that I am afraid he will have very little time to spend with you in the future. If this goes on for a long time, , can you bear it? Don't be like your mother. After you can't stand it anymore, you have to force yourself to be a strong woman and go through all kinds of twists and turns to accompany your man in his career.
Zhao Xianliang sat alone in the courtyard box of Hangxuanju and felt sulky for a long time, until the waiter opened the door. As soon as the door opened, he saw Li Mu standing next to his wife and daughter, and he felt really unspeakably disgusted.
Li Mu entered the door at Xie Yun's invitation, and said to Zhao Xianliang with a smile on his face and a respectful tone: "Hello, uncle."
Zhao Xianliang nodded slightly without any expression and said nothing.
Xie Yun saw that her husband's behavior was a bit rude and rude, so she couldn't help but glare at him.
Zhao Xianliang felt the strong dissatisfaction in his wife's eyes and hurriedly said, "What is that? Are you here?"
