BXBX NOVEL Chapter 435
Chapter 435: Clearly bullying
“Auntie Fang, do you think we should invite a lot of people to brother Yingluo’s birthday party? You can also keep in touch with your relatives and friends?”
Lin Miao was fiddling with the decorations for the birthday party while politely asking Li Jingjing’s stepmother, Fang Ling, for advice.
Fang Ling understood Li Jingjing’s personality. Although they had never been close, they still maintained a good relationship on the surface.
“I don’t think it’s necessary. It’ll be more chaotic with more people, and it’ll be difficult to achieve your goal. Besides, Yingluo doesn’t like noisy and lively environments.”
“That makes sense. Alright then, let’s decorate the house more heartwarming and let him feel the warm atmosphere. We’ll also invite my parents over so that the two families can have a meal together. ”
Fang Ling nodded in agreement.
The two families were neighbors. They weren’t far from each other, but in recent years, Lin Miao’s parents had lived in the city most of the time, only going back to their hometown occasionally.
It was a good opportunity for the two families to meet and chat.
Lin Miao’s thoughts weren’t that simple. She had already told her parents that they would definitely confirm their relationship at Li Jingjing’s birthday banquet.
As long as it was brought up in a formal setting and both parents agreed first, he would see how Li Jingjing could object.
Could it be that he would throw a tantrum and complain in front of his parents? Moreover, there was an old man in his eighties at the scene.
Lin Miao had already felt a sense of crisis when she saw how ordinary Chi Luoxi and Li Jingjing’s interactions had been recently.
She wanted to use this method to force a confession out of Li Jingjing so that she could quickly confirm her relationship with Li Jingjing, or her future position in the Li family.
......
As for how their relationship would develop in the future, it would depend on his own efforts.
Li Jingjing was still in a meeting when her phone vibrated. It was a call from her father.
Li Jingjing was shocked to see her father’s phone number. Her father rarely called her. Did something happen at home? Is Grandpa alright?
He immediately walked to the door of the conference room and answered the phone. He heard his father’s voice on the other side of the phone.
“Hello, Yingluo, I have something to tell you.”
Li Jingjing said directly,”
“What happened?”
“Oh, it’s fine at home. Don’t worry. I’m talking about next week. I’m telling you in advance. You have to come back for the event.”
Li Jingjing could tell from the phone that her father was getting old, and his voice had become old and weak. He was no longer as concise as before.
“Dad, I’m in a meeting right now. If you have something to say, say it quickly. If it’s not important, I’ll call you later.”
“It’s important, it’s important. Just a few words. Come back to the old house next week to celebrate your 30th birthday!”
After saying this, his father didn’t even say goodbye and hung up the phone.
Li Jingjing didn’t know whether to laugh or cry when she heard this. What kind of important thing was this?
He was a grown man who was neither young nor old. Why would he celebrate his birthday at the old residence? there was no need to make it so Grand and troublesome.
Li Jingjing immediately turned around and returned to the meeting room.
Back in the office, Li Jingjing opened the calendar and checked. It was her birthday next Sunday. She was already 30 years old this year.
Thirty years old was the age to start a family and career, but now he was still single.
Thinking of this, a smile appeared on Li Jingjing’s face.
So be it. This was probably grandpa’s idea. The old people always paid attention to many customs, saying that birthdays on the 10th day were considered big birthdays and that they had to celebrate them well in order to be more successful and prosperous.
He could also take this opportunity to bring Chi Luoxi back to meet her family and let them get to know each other.
Of course, Li Jingjing knew that Chi Luoxi’s status as a big star was not a good thing in the eyes of the elderly. They would only pay attention to the girl’s background, family background, and conditions.
He was just politely bringing Yue Xi back to get to know them. As for what kind of woman he would choose to marry and live with, that was definitely up to him.
Li Jingjing had a strong personality. He didn’t want to listen to the opinions of the elders in the family, nor did he want to put pressure on himself.
He rarely returned to the old house because he did not agree with his family on many things.
However, her grandfather had doted on her since she was young. Li Jingjing felt a little regretful that she couldn’t stay by his side.
According to Chi yaoxi’s character, her grandfather should like her. Li Jingjing believed this.
That night, Lin Miao returned home. As soon as she entered the house, she felt that something was wrong.
When it was time for dinner, the lights were still off in the dark living room. Both his parents were sitting on the sofa with long faces and silent.
Could it be that the two of them had a fight?
Lin Miao turned on the light and asked with concern,”
“What’s wrong with you two? They’re already so old, yet they still bicker with each other over such small things?”
Hearing Lin Miao’s words, her mother couldn’t help but stand up. Her voice wasn’t loud, but she frowned and said to Lin Miao with an extremely unsightly expression,”
“What two people? it has nothing to do with the two of us. It’s something that concerns you!”
Lin Miao was a little puzzled. What embarrassing thing had happened to make her mother’s expression so ugly?
“What about me? Aiya, mom, don’t be anxious. There’s nothing that can’t be solved. Let’s eat while we talk. I’m hungry. ”
“Eat! You only know how to eat! Let’s see how you’re going to eat it after you know!”
Her mother’s expression turned even uglier, and she kept scolding Lin Miao.
It was strange. Lin Miao was also confused by this clueless scolding.
She looked at her father, who had been silent the whole time, with a questioning look.
Old master Lin sighed,”
“AI! Miaomiao, have you seen the news? Your mom has been reading the latest entertainment news and she’s about to die from anger. Go online and take a look. ”
Oh, so it was like this.
Lin Miao heaved a sigh of relief. Although what her mother had said was indeed embarrassing, she knew about it and was trying to find a way to solve it.
Lin Miao understood that her parents couldn’t understand or accept this.
However, since his parents had brought up this topic, he had to face it. Lin Miao also sat down on the sofa.
“Dad, mom, I know about the news you’re talking about.”
“What? You know about it? You know about Li Jingjing’s messy past?”
Lin Miao’s mother had just heard Lin Miao say one sentence, so she immediately got angry and questioned her loudly.
“Isn’t that li guy clearly bullying us? They’re already talking about getting engaged, but they’re still fooling around with other women!”
Lin Miao saw that her mother was anxious, so she quickly tried to persuade her,”
“Mom, don’t be so anxious. Don’t get angry. Lower your voice. The neighbors are going to hear you.”
“So what if they heard it? even if they didn’t hear it, there were so many rumors on the internet, and they saw it for themselves!
I just don’t understand what Li Jingjing is trying to do. What did the Li family mean?
Is this marriage still going to be fixed? Our family’s daughter also grew up in the palm of our hands, when did it become his turn to bully people like this!”
