"Sister Chen, I've already given it some thought. I'm still too young and still lack the qualifications. I better recharge myself properly at this time." "Where's the factory? On one hand, I'm far away from the factory, and also very nervous to study, so I decided to give it to you and Shang Yin. I'm going to leave."
After saying that, Chen Lifen looked as if she had been struck by lightning. "How could that be okay, Xiao Lian, you were the one who started this factory. Although Shang Yin and I are also investing in it, we all know that you have the most sweat and blood here. "If it wasn't for the fact that you designed it and sold it, it would have been impossible for the factory to be set up."
"Sis Chen, I've decided." Cao Xiaoling lowered her head and said, "I also want to go out and have some peace and quiet when this happens."
Looking at her, Chen Lifen felt bad.
It's really an unexpected event. The factory is being run well, who would have thought that such a thing would happen?
Chen Lifen did not say anything, her eyes red from holding in her anger. However, Old Tao opened his mouth and said, "Lifen, I know you don't want to part with Xiao Lian, but you have to respect her opinion."
"Enough!" Chen Lifen sighed and said in a choked voice, "Xiao Lian, I need you to take care of yourself when the time comes." "In any case, this factory will always have half of yours!"
At this point, Cao Xiaolian did not say anything else. She stood up and was about to leave.
On Shang Yin's side, she planned to go back and call him to explain in detail.
When they reached the road, Li YuGeng saw that her eyes were slightly red. He knew she would be reluctant to leave. However, what could he do if he encountered such a situation? If he stayed behind, the impact he would face in the future would be even greater.
Besides, Li YuGeng did not want to suffer from the pain of lovesick anymore. He wished he could see Cao Xiaoling every day. If anything happened, he could show up in front of her at the first possible moment.
The two of them walked on the street silently until they came to a garden. Cao Xiaolian sat down on the flower bed.
"Tell me, am I not a very disobedient daughter?"
It was only after she said this that Li Yugeng realized what she meant. He probably couldn't bear to part with his mother.
"Actually, you can bring Auntie along." "My house has a spare one over there," he suggested. "Even if you don't want to live in my house, you can look for another, and you can take care of it."
Cao Xiaoling shook her head. "My mom said she's old and doesn't want to run with me anymore. I think she still wants to live in this familiar land."
"Xiao Lian." The germaphobic Li Yugeng also sat beside her, hugging her and comforting her, "Actually auntie is right. Here, she has more friends and a larger circle of life, which is beneficial to her old age."
"But I can't stop worrying about her." Cao Xiaolian suddenly covered her face and cried. "You don't understand, you don't understand."
Living a new life, her injustice was to want to accompany her sister and mother, but she was useless and couldn't keep her sister. When their mother finally managed to live a good life, their sister also relied on her hard work to go to school for the winter holidays. Seeing that their family was about to reunite, they encountered such a thing.
Cao Xiaolian was furious. Why did the heavens treat her like this? She only had such a tiny wish, and it was impossible for her to do so.
Li Yugeng sighed. He knew that it would take a while for her to get through this, so he could only stay silent with her.
However, he secretly swore in his heart that he would definitely make her happy. Definitely!
They cried for a long time, afraid that Mother Cao would notice them. The two of them walked around the restaurant and bought some cooked food. Only then did they go back.
After sending it downstairs, Li YuGeng did not go up.
After all, the two of them were currently just couple friends, so it wasn't good for him to stay at her house forever.
"Have a good meal later, do you understand?" Li Yuheng stroked the tattered hair on her temples. "You've lost weight recently."
Cao Xiaolian lowered her head and answered.
"At night." Li Yugeng paused. "Stay away from that kid. I don't like him."
It would be strange if he liked his love rival.
Cao Xiaolian raised her head. His face was full of jealousy.
"Got it." Cao Xiaoling laughed and pinched the bridge of his nose with her lips. "Jealous!"
Li YuGeng raised his eyebrows and asked, "Are you sure?"
This was nothing. His jealousy hadn't fully emerged yet.
If not for his consideration for her emotions, he would not have treated Huang Fang that way outside today.
"Alright, alright, I know how amazing you are." Cao Xiaolian tried to coax him, "Don't worry, I'm just an ordinary classmate. I have no other feelings for him."
"That's for the best."
The proud Li Yugeng stared at Cao Xiaolian but refused to leave. His eyes were staring at her, as if he wanted to swallow her whole.
In the end, Cao Xiaolian let her kiss him on the cheek for a long time. After she was satisfied, she watched her as she went upstairs.
Sigh, the word 'love' has never been known to exist.
As soon as Cao Xiaoling walked in, she found that Mrs Cao had already finished cooking. While she was changing her shoes, she asked, "Mom, I bought some pig ears for you and Grandpa Li to drink."
"Your Grandpa Li went back."
"Ah, why did you go back?" Cao Xiaolian saw her mother holding a cucumber salad and pinched one of them. She scolded her mother, "You don't wash your hands, just eat it. You're still a child."
She raised her head to look behind her and curiously asked, "Where's Little Li?"
"Going back. Why are you always staying at our house?"
When Mother Cao thought about it, it was because she thought that Xiao Li would think too much about seeing a man in the family, which was why she chased Grandpa Li away. She didn't expect her daughter to have the same thought, and couldn't help but smile.
"It's good that you didn't come. Mom just had something she wanted to tell you."
"Mom, go ahead." Cao Xiaolian had already sat down with her chopsticks and began to eat. "I will say anything I know."
She had always planned to be a good child so that Mother Cao would be at ease.
"That Little Li." Mother Cao hesitated for a moment before asking, "Do you know what is done in the family?"
Cao Xiaoling was surprised, "I really don't know about that. We're just dating. We're not married, so how could we be so clear about this?"
Hearing her daughter's words, Mother Cao was so angry that she slapped her once. "You don't seem ashamed at all when you speak of a girl's love affairs. You are just casually saying it."
Only then did Cao Xiaolian recall the conservatism of this era. She grinned and said, "Why don't I ask it tomorrow?"
This was nothing to her as her mother would be more at ease if she knew about it.
"No, no, no." Mother Cao quickly waved her hands, "Don't ask, I'm just asking. If you know, then just let me know. If you don't know, then forget about it. Don't let Little Li know and think that our family is trying to get something out of him."
"Mom, think more."
Mother Cao watched her daughter walk with all her heart before sighing. She was still a child after all. How could she have thought of such a long term plan?
However, he still had to give her an explanation. She was the one who felt sorry for him in case she suffered in the future because of this daughter of his.
"Xiao Lian, listen to mom." Mother Cao picked up a wooden ear and gave it to her daughter. She put down her chopsticks and stared at Cao Xiaolian's blowable face, "I can see that this Xiao Li is not bad at home. You're going to the capital to study. We'll meet in the future. If their family doesn't treat you well, you should reconsider your case. "
"After all, there is still a gap between the two of you. Of course, Mom didn't say that her daughter isn't outstanding, but in her heart, you are the best. But in other people's parents' hearts, their children were also great. "So I'm afraid they might think that we're a small family, so we shouldn't be unworthy of them. Let me show them to my daughter."
Mother Cao tried her best to be tactful, "You know, love is a matter for two people, you are happy that he is sweet, happy that it is fine, simple, not that complicated. But marriage was a struggle between two families. His parents, your parents, will decide whether or not this relationship will be happy, whether or not it can last. "
Cao Xiaolian was still eating the fish when she suddenly coughed.
Mother Cao was in the middle of speaking sorrowfully. Hearing her daughter's words, she thought that she had gotten stuck. She anxiously patted her back to get more water, "What's wrong?" I'll get you some vinegar. "
"No, no, no." Cao Xiaolian pulled on her mother's arm and said, "Mom, I was choked by you."
It seemed that there were some things that he had to say without making things clear.
"Mom, Li YuGeng does like me. Of course, I also have some feelings for him, but no one can say how long this feelings will last."
Cao Xiaoling said honestly, "I am still the best in my studies. Like I told you in the afternoon, what I want to do the most right now is to study hard and to have enough of myself. If there is a chance in the future, I will do my own thing. As for love, that's at the end. "
"And Mom, if Li Yugeng and I can really get married in the future, then I will think about his family. Don't even mention his parents looking down on me, even if it wasn't good for me, I wouldn't choose to marry him. After all, a marriage without the blessing of one's parents is not a marriage in the long run. "
"Of course." Cao Xiaoling added, "That will be in the long run. That is, if we can really get to that point. But at least for now, I don't have any plans for that at all. "
After listening to her daughter's words, Mother Cao's heart was finally at ease.
However, he felt pity for Li YuGeng.
After all, even if he encountered such a tough bone, he would still need a certain amount of willpower!
After the mother and daughter discussion, Mother Cao could finally relax. Cao Xiaolan was also prepared to go to school to bid farewell to her classmates and teachers.
As soon as he went downstairs, he saw a familiar figure.
"You've been standing here all this time?"
Cao Xiaoling was dumbfounded. "It's summer now, feed the mosquitoes."
In fact, how could Li Yugeng leave? The thought of Cao Xiaolian meeting that slutty man in school tonight made him uncomfortable.
It was as if his own delicious cheese was going to be delivered into the mouth of a mouse.
After thinking for a while, he decided that safety was the most important thing. Thus, he stood there and waited for Cao Xiaoling to go to school before sending it back.
"Are you stupid? You don't even know how to go upstairs." Cao Xiaolian looked at his pale face and saw a small red dot. Needless to say, it must have been bitten by a mosquito.
The mosquitoes of today are the big flower mosquitoes, but they are very poisonous.
"It's fine. Xiao Lian, let me send you to school."
The two of them walked the whole way out of the district without saying anything. Li YuGeng took advantage of the fact that they were crossing the street to hold her hand, and they never saw her off again.
With this, they arrived at the school gate.
Huang Fang had been waiting there since early on. Based on his personality, he actually wanted to go downstairs to Cao Xiaolan's house to wait. However, thinking about it, this hateful man would definitely not give him the chance to do so, so he decided to just wait at the entrance.
He didn't expect to see such a dazzling scene as soon as he arrived.
"Xiao Lian." He deliberately shifted his gaze to Cao Xiaolian and said in high spirits, "Here."
Li YuGeng also saw him at a glance.
When their love rivals met, their eyes reddened.
Especially Huang Fang, who was wearing a special flirtatious dress. She was wearing a pair of tight jeans that didn't get too hot. Her sneakers said "Big Adidas", while her top was wearing a cultural shirt that said "Anger".
So what? Li YuGeng held his hand tighter. At least for now, Cao Xiaolan was still holding his hand.
