Chapter 1021: A Man Without a Woman

After Shu Xinyu and Ning Tongtong left, Li Yan held Qiao Mu’s shoulder. ” Get in the car. ”

Qiao Mu raised her head and met Li Yan’s worried gaze. She smiled. ” I’m fine, Uncle. It doesn’t matter anymore. ”

It really didn’t matter anymore. She now knew what was most important to her. She wouldn’t dwell on things that didn’t belong to her.

However, what she did not understand was why Ning Tongtong did not admit what she had done to her. She had already let it go, so there was no need for Ning Tongtong to pretend to be innocent.

Perhaps he was worried that she would cause trouble again, so he refused to admit it?

Qiao Mu shook her head to stop herself from thinking about unpleasant things. She got into the car and let out a long sigh. She felt very accomplished as she drove the pile of things behind the car. ” I finally bought everything. It’s really tiring to celebrate the new year. ”

Li Yan rubbed her head helplessly. ” This job was originally your mother-in-law’s, but you insisted on taking the initiative to do it. It’s fine that you volunteered, but you even dragged me into it to accompany you shopping for two days. ”

In the past, the Li family spent the New Year abroad. A few years ago, the China New Year wasn’t popular in the United States, but the Li family would still celebrate their own Spring Festival. Everything was arranged by Yu Yiduo, so it was equally lively. In recent years, the Chinese New Year was especially important abroad. Yu Yiduo made a big fuss and prepared many things in China.

This year was the first Chinese New Year since she returned to the country, so she naturally couldn’t spend it casually. Yu Yiduo was supposed to be in charge of the overall situation, but Qiao Mu enthusiastically took over, and Yu Yiduo couldn’t wait to be the hands-off manager.

Qiao Mu pouted after hearing his words. ” You’re unwilling to be with me? I’m giving you a chance to be alone with me so that you won’t keep saying that you won’t see me for the whole day.”

Li Yan’s lips curled up. ” It’s not bad to spend more time with each other. However, I prefer to spend more time with each other in bed. ”

Qiao Mu was speechless.

Can we still have a proper chat?

After a while, Qiao Mu tilted her head and looked at Li Yan. ” We’re treating Su Chen and the others to a meal today. Are there any rules? ” “It’s not a rule. It’s just that in the past, our family was overseas and we weren’t together with them during the New Year. Every time before the New Year, they would go to our home overseas for dinner and get together. After a long time, it became a habit.”

Qiao Mu nodded in understanding. She also understood that Li Yan’s relationship with his brothers was not ordinary. They were all brothers who grew up together. Not only were they close, but even their parents from the previous generation were also very close. They were all family friends.

She looked at the man in front of her. Fortunately, he had a few brothers who had been close since they were young. Otherwise, such a difficult man would probably not be able to make many friends.

Therefore, her adaptability was really strong.

Lu Jingzhi and Su Chen were already there when they returned to the Li family’s house. The two of them sat leisurely on the sofa and drank tea.

When he saw Li Yan return, Lu Jingzhi could not help but complain, ” Brother, as the host, you invited us here for a meal, but you’re out there doing whatever you want. Is that right? ”

Li Yan glanced at Lu Jingzhi. ” I told you to come at night. Who told you to come so early? ”

Qiao Mu smiled and continued, ” Because he doesn’t have anyone to keep him company. Baby Guan has returned to Hong Kong, so he’s so bored by himself. He despises her when she’s around, but now that she’s gone, does he know he can’t bear to part with her? ”

Her words exposed Lu Jingzhi’s thoughts. Lu Jingzhi did not argue with the woman and did not respond.

Qiao Mu looked at Su Chen. ” Young Master Su, Young Master Lu doesn’t have anyone to accompany him, but why are you here so early? Where’s Xiaxia? “
