Translator: 549690339
“Do you still remember how old you are this year?”
Li Jingjing didn’t know what to do with the old man’s question. Was he going to urge her to get married again?
A few years ago, the elders had urged Li Jingjing to get married and have children as soon as possible, but Li Jingjing had no choice. They just wanted to have a grandson, and it was easy to have one.
Before she had found a suitable partner, Li Jingjing had her own son, little Chenchen, through high-tech medical means.
The entire Li family was overjoyed. After that, the old man didn’t urge li Qianqian to get married.
Now that her father was seriously asking about her age again, Li Jingjing hesitated for a moment before saying,”
“Dad, look at what you’re saying. Didn’t you just celebrate your 30th birthday?”
“You’re already in your teens. Other than being in charge of the company, you should at least not bring shame to the family!”
His father raised his voice and his expression became more serious.
Li Jingjing hadn’t seen her father so angry in many years. She was a little puzzled and didn’t know what her father was referring to.
To bring glory to the family, but not to bring shame to the family?
His words were a little harsh. Li Jingjing thought about it and realized that everything had been normal recently. The company’s business had been developing normally, and there was nothing wrong with her personal life.
Li Jingjing’s mood was also affected. She had been obedient and made a special trip to come back to talk about things. Why did she always sound like she was lecturing someone?
“Dad, if you have something to say, just say it. There’s no need to beat around the bush.”
Old master Li’s eyes were filled with dissatisfaction and resentment. He asked directly,”
“What’s going on between you and that woman?”
A woman? Was he referring to Chi Luoxi?
Li Jingjing knew that the old man would still pay attention to the young people’s Affairs. What industry, status, and family status were all very complicated.
“You don’t have to worry about us. There aren’t so many rules in the new era.”
Li Jingjing didn’t want her father to interfere in her relationship with Chi Yuexi.
Young people valued relationships more and had different requirements from the older generation. They did not care much about the status and economic conditions of the two sides, whether they were a match for each other.
They would be young people living together in the future. They would only know if they were suitable for each other for the rest of their lives.
Li Jingjing didn’t expect her father to be even angrier after hearing what she said. He shouted,”
“What do you mean by not that particular? As the president of the Li family, how could he be toyed with by such a woman? what else could it be if not a great humiliation? Not just you, but the entire Li family’s face!”
Li Jingjing was also anxious. Who was slandering Chi Yuexi again?
“Dad, it’s fine if other people spread rumors, but why are you also blindly involved? I brought her home for my birthday so that you two could get to know each other. You’ve met Chi Luoxi before, she’s not that kind of woman!”
Old master Li didn’t listen to Li Jingjing’s advice. He glared at her and said in a louder voice,”
“A woman who acts two-faced on the surface and two-faced behind the scenes. She can only coax a single-minded man like you who doesn’t have a good memory!”
There was no common topic with such an old man. He was old and old-fashioned. He always used his old ways to measure others.
Li Jingjing didn’t bother to explain to her father. But seeing that his father was in a fit of anger, he couldn’t just walk away.
At this time, her stepmother, aunt Fang, came down from upstairs. Li Jingjing thought that her Savior had arrived and quickly stood up to greet her.
At the very least, he thought that aunt Fang was younger and not so old-fashioned. She probably wouldn’t be like his father, who would judge Chi Luoxi and her acting career with prejudice.
“Aunt Fang,”
“Yingluo, what happened? why is your dad so angry? Don’t make your dad angry! A few days ago, he went to the central Hospital for a physical examination and found out that your Father’s heart wasn’t in good condition. The doctor asked him to try to calm down. ”
When Li Jingjing heard this, she was in no mood to explain herself. Forget it, she’d better remain silent to avoid trouble.
Seeing Li Jingjing’s silence, Fang Ling walked up to old master Li and whispered,”
“What can’t be said properly? Don’t get angry. The doctor has reminded you many times to be calm and optimistic. Don’t get angry. ”
Fang Ling tugged at old master Li’s arm as she spoke.
The old man started scolding li Qianqian again.”
“Who wants to bother with his stupid things! But now, the commotion was so big that the Li family’s face was completely lost! Do you think we should get involved in this?”
Only then did Fang Ling continue the previous topic. She pretended to be kind and advised,”
“Yueyue, I’ve heard about this from your father and saw it on the internet. It’s indeed too much. You say that young people are fun, but you can’t play with them like this. That woman with the surname Chi is with you and she’s still up to no good. Isn’t this damaging to your reputation and the Li family’s reputation?”
Li Jingjing didn’t expect the news to spread so widely in her hometown. He couldn’t explain it again.
“Don’t look at the rumors on the internet. They’re all deliberately spread by people who want to cause trouble.”
Fang Ling didn’t agree with Li Jingjing’s explanation.”
“I heard from my acquaintances and saw it with my own eyes. Your father makes sense. That woman with the surname Chi may be good-looking, but she doesn’t have a good reputation in that line of work. Qianqian, I advise you to forget about having fun and break up early. It’s good for you and our Li family.”
Hearing this, Li Jingjing wasn’t willing. This was what the old couple had discussed to oppose her.
It had been less than a month since he brought Chi luexi back for his birthday, but the old man’s attitude had changed so much.
Back then, when they returned, Chi Luoxi treated them sincerely and brought different gifts for each of them.
Her grandfather was all smiles. One could tell that he was very satisfied with Chi Luoxi.
Li Jingjing remembered that the old man and aunt Fang didn’t express any opinions. They didn’t say yes or no.
Li Jingjing thought that they had tacitly agreed to it and didn’t care about young people’s love and marriage.
He didn’t expect that in less than a month, their attitude would change significantly and they would strongly oppose it.
Li Jingjing tried her best to calm herself down. Even if she wanted to get angry, she had to look at the situation and the people around her. This was in front of the old man, and he was still a person who understood etiquette and was filial to the old man.
“Father, aunt Fang, I’ll handle these things. You don’t have to worry about it. Don’t worry, Chi Luoxi is a good woman. Without all these messy things, I won’t tarnish the Li family’s reputation.”
Aunt Fang frowned helplessly when she heard Li Jingjing’s words. If they didn’t listen to her advice, they would do things their own way in the future and wouldn’t let them talk too much.
When old master Li heard Li Jingjing’s words, he immediately stood up from the sofa.
