Chapter 351: Chapter 351: accompany him for a few days
He was so sensible that it made one’s heart ache.
“Housekeeper Zhou, can you please do us a favor and let us out?”For Xu Yanzhi’s sake, Xu Wanwan’s tone was almost pleading.
“Miss Xu, I’m also working for director Li. I hope you won’t make things difficult for me.”Housekeeper Zhou shook his head with a troubled look on his face. “If I secretly leave with Peace of mind, I definitely won’t be able to keep this job.”
“You won’t. Li Jingran has always valued friendship and loyalty. You’ve worked for the Li family for so many years. He Won’t forget the past,”Xu Wanwan said, she quickly took out a bank card from her bag. “Take this money. Consider it my reward.”
“Miss Xu, I can’t accept this money. I Won’t betray director Li.”
Xu Wanwan sighed. “If you think this is too little, I can give it to you after I get out.”
“Miss Xu.”
Housekeeper Zhou couldn’t stand it anymore. “You know that director Li is a man of honor. Why do you have to leave him?”
“Forgive me for saying so much. After you left, director Li’s life hasn’t been easy. He’s been waiting for you for the past three years. Now That You’re finally back, you want to leave. Have you thought about how much this will hurt director Li?”
Xu Wanwan stood rooted to the ground, her emotions mixed.
“In the year that you left, director Li was drunk all day and had no intention to run the company. At one point, he broke up with old Madam Li...”
The housekeeper knew that Xu Wanwan was a soft-hearted person, so she told Li Jingran about the past three years.
After listening to Li Jingran’s past experiences, tears welled up in Xu Wanwan’s eyes.
......
Her heart felt like it was weighed down by a thousand pounds of stone, and she was so depressed that she couldn’t breathe.
The Butler sighed. “Miss Xu, director Li has been through a lot these past few years. He will definitely be happy if you and Yan Zhi can return to his side.”
“If you must leave, wait for some time. At the very least, you have to give director Li a chance to make up for you and Yan Zhi. Even if it’s for the sake of the child, you have to stay in peace.”
Xu Wanwan stared at the ground with a heavy heart. She could not hear what the Butler said after that.
She only knew that Li Jingran had been living a miserable life these years.
Xu Yanzhi was his child after all. If he did not meet with Yanzhi, it would not make sense.
Upstairs.
“Director Li, Miss Xu has already wavered. I don’t think she will leave with a fuss.”
Li Jingran stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window and calmly flicked the ashes beside his hand. “Old Zhou, you did well in this matter. The bonus this month will be doubled.”
“Yes, thank you, director Li!”
Housekeeper Zhou walked out of the study happily. In his opinion, this task was the easiest one he had ever done.
Anyone with a discerning eye could see that director Li and Miss Xu were on good terms. They had been forced to part back then. Since they had met again, they had to make up eventually.
It didn’t matter if they didn’t agree now. After spending some time together, they would gradually recall what had happened in the past. They would definitely soften their hearts and turn back.
“Yanzhi, can I discuss something with you?”Xu Wanwan returned to Xu Yanzhi’s side and asked gently.
“What is it, Mommy?”
“That uncle Li is in a bad mood right now. Can We stay here and accompany him for a few days?”Xu Wanwan squatted down and stroked Xu Yanzhi’s head as she said patiently, “He’s not the bad uncle you think he is. As long as you behave yourself, he won’t hurt you.”
“Mommy, how do you know he’s a good person?”Little Tuan Zi blinked his big eyes and asked in confusion.
“Because...”
Xu Wanwan took a deep breath. “Mommy was once in a desperate situation. It was uncle Li who took me in.”
Although Xu Yanzhi was a child, he could still see the faint tears in Xu Wanwan’s eyes.
He hugged her. “Mommy, I’ll listen to you! I won’t quarrel with Uncle Li anymore. Don’t be sad, okay?”
“Okay.”Xu Wanwan smiled faintly and pulled Xu Yanzhi’s hand to stand up. “Watch TV on the sofa for a while. I’ll make you a small cake.”
“Mommy, you can make a cake too?”
It was the first time Xu Yanzhi heard that Xu Wanwan could cook. His eyes were full of surprise.
Xu Wanwan smiled. “I was busy with work, so I didn’t have time to take care of you. That’s why I didn’t make you any good food.”
“Then Mommy, go quickly. I’ll wait for you here obediently!”
Xu Yanzhi sat on the sofa obediently, his calves dangling on the sofa as he watched the anime characters on television seriously.
When the Li family’s servants saw such a delicate little ball, their hearts melted. From time to time, they would send him good food and fun.
Xu Yanzhi was very cold. Other than his mommy, he had a cold expression on his face. “Thank you for bringing me these, but Mommy said that you can’t accept things from strangers.”
At this moment, Butler Zhou was calling a group of people behind him to carry large and small boxes of things into the living room.
“These are all young master’s things. Be careful.”
After Butler Zhou finished his instructions, he looked kindly at Xu Yanzhi. “Young master, come and take a look. Director Li bought you all the toys in the mall.”
Xu Yanzhi’s eyes slowly widened. He looked at the dozens of big boxes behind him and felt a little excited.
However, he stood still and turned his head away. “I have a lot of toys. I don’t need them.”
“What, the things I gave you can’t compare to that man?”Li Jingran walked down the stairs slowly. He was not angry when he saw the little ball with a proud face.
Xu Yanzhi stood still stubbornly. Although he did not like Li Jingran in his heart, his mommy had said that he was a good person.
“Thank you for your kindness, uncle Li, but Daddy taught me from a young age that I can’t take things from strangers.”Xu Yanzhi was like a different person, rejecting him politely and distantly.
Li Jingran chuckled.
He had improved a lot today, and now he knew how to call him Uncle.
He bent down and took out a limited edition transformer from the box. He walked slowly to the little guy and asked, “Are you sure you don’t want it?”
Xu Yanzhi had been calling out Transformers when he slept at night. How could he not want it.
“But if I take it, mommy will scold me.”Xu Yanzhi pursed his lips. He only dared to reach out and touch the transformer lightly before quickly withdrawing his hand.
Li Jingran said patiently, “I’m your father. It’s only right for me to give you something.”
“You’re not my father,”Xu Yanzhi immediately corrected him. “You’re Uncle Li. You’re such an adult. Why Can’t you even distinguish such a simple relationship?”
Li Jingran laughed in anger. He casually threw the transformer onto the sofa. “Butler Zhou, then throw these things out.”
Xu Yanzhi widened his eyes in disbelief. Then, he saw a group of servants carrying limited edition toys out of the box.
“Uncle Li!”
The little guy finally couldn’t take it anymore. He hugged the Transformers on the sofa and said, “Mommy said not to waste them. Give these toys to me.”
