“Yuxin! Why did you decide to come to Dad's company today? Didn't you say you were going to hang out with Mucheng?”
Su Wanli was secretly delighted. His daughter was finally growing up and learning to share the burden, proving herself to be his proudest little comforter.
“Father, can I ask you for a favor?”
“Anything within my capabilities, you know that.”
Su Wanli patted his chest, showing off his fatherly image at the right moment.
“I want to meet someone.”
“Who?”
“A tutor.”
“A tutor? That’s easy! Just tell your mom, and she’ll arrange for the tutor you want to meet to come over.”
“I’m not talking about my tutor! I mean...”
Su Yuxin clenched her little fists. In her eyes, it was this so-called tutor who had caused her to fall out with Li Mucheng. If she could just get rid of this tutor, maybe Li Mucheng would reconcile with her.
“I mean Mucheng’s tutor.”
“What!”
Su Wanli was stunned. He didn’t understand why Su Yuxin suddenly wanted to meet Li Mucheng’s tutor, but he guessed it might have been Li Mucheng who told her about him.
“Well...”
Su Wanli was hesitant. After all, the young man Li Jing mentioned was Li Mucheng’s private tutor, and his role also involved security. However, since his daughter just wanted to meet him, it shouldn’t be a big deal.
“Yuxin, can you tell Dad why you want to meet that tutor? Is there something different about the teaching methods of the tutor I hired for you?”
“I’m afraid I can’t tell you that.”
Su Yuxin crossed her arms firmly in front of her chest. It was rare for Su Wanli to see his usually obedient daughter act so stubborn. When she got like this, even eight horses couldn’t pull her back.
“Alright... but I’ll have to discuss this with your Uncle Li Jing first.”
“Okay! I’ll wait for your news, Father.”
Su Yuxin nodded and found a vacant chair to sit down.
It seemed she was forcing him to act now.
Su Wanli smiled wryly, took out the phone locked in the safe, opened the contacts list to the only entry, and pressed call. This was his private contact method with Li Jing.
“Hello?”
“Old Li.”
“What's wrong, Lao Su? Your tone sounds like you have something to discuss with me.”
“Hey, you were right. I do have something to discuss with you.”
Su Wanli suddenly felt his daughter looking at him with a hopeful gaze as he spoke. In the end, he reluctantly expressed his request.
“Weren't you the one who told me about that kid from Mu Cheng's family at the banquet? I would like to ask you to help me meet that kid.”
“What? Old Su, what are you going on about? What do you want with that kid? This has nothing to do with you at all.”
I know that kid has nothing to do with me, but my daughter’s stick hit me.
The voice of Li Jing on the other end of the phone fell silent for a moment, and one could faintly hear him take a deep breath.
You mean... that kid Yuxin?
“Isn't that so? Somehow I heard about Mu Cheng hiring a tutor, and today she insisted that I personally meet that young man. You know, as a dad, it's not easy for me to refuse.”
“Do you mean you want me to be the bad guy?”
“Where can I do that? I'm just here to discuss it with you.”
“Come on, don't think I don't know what you're thinking. Yuxin just wants to meet that guy, right? No problem, I can just give him a heads-up. Just tell me the location, and I'll ask him to come over tomorrow.”
“Hi, this is so troublesome. It's all because of Old Li. Talking to you makes me feel clear in my heart!”
“Alright, alright, no more nonsense. I have things to take care of here. I'll send you that guy's contact information later. Remember, don't try to steal him away from me, I'm currently working with him.”
“Don't worry, old Li. The thing I hate the most in my life is people who undermine others! Yu Xin is just curious and wants to meet her; there won't be any misunderstandings.”
“That's best. Alright, let's leave it at that; I have to get back to work for the company.”
“Alright, then Old Li, you go ahead with your work, I won't disturb you.”
After the conversation ended, Su Wanli hung up the phone.
“Father, have you and Uncle Li discussed it?”
“Don’t worry, Yuxin, we’ve already discussed it. That kid should come over tomorrow if nothing unexpected happens.”
“Great! Ah... I mean, I can finally meet this teacher who is so important to Mu Cheng.”
“......”
Suwanli looked at his daughter's somewhat smiling yet ambiguous expression, unsure of what to say. In the end, he just gently patted Su Yuxin's golden hair and spoke softly.
“Yuxin, if there's anything, make sure to talk to me and your mom, okay?”
“Don’t worry, Father, I understand all of this.”
Suwenxin, seeing that the plan had succeeded, returned to her obedient girl persona, while secretly starting to devise daily methods to deal with Li Mucheng's tutor.
Mu Cheng, we will make up, we definitely will!
......
Hello, could you help me pick out some clothes?
After buying one or two pieces of his own clothing, Ye Feng arrived at a women's clothing store. The sales clerk was slightly taken aback when she saw that the customer who entered was Ye Feng.
Hello guest... How may I assist you?
“Ah, I see. My girlfriend is on a business trip out of town, but I want to buy a few nice clothes for her as a surprise.”
Looking at the handsome Ye Feng, the salesperson was momentarily stunned. After regaining composure, they quickly beckoned Ye Feng to come into the store.
“It seems that you really love your girlfriend, dear guest. She is truly fortunate to have such a wonderful boyfriend!”
“Haha, she often buys me clothes too.”
“What style of clothes does your girlfriend like to wear, guest? Is it the elegant-looking long dress or the sexy short skirt?”
Listening to the salesperson's introduction and seeing the styles of the clothes, Ye Feng couldn't help but imagine Xie Yuyan wearing these outfits. Suddenly, his face turned red, and he took the opportunity to calm himself down while the salesperson was not paying attention to him.
After some understanding, Ye Feng had a rough idea in his mind, so he pointed to two sets of clothes in front of the salesperson. One was a deep blue long dress with a white ribbon tied around the waist. The monochromatic combination seemed rather plain, but it would look quite different when worn by Xie Yuyan.
Another option is relatively more conservative, featuring a pure white long-sleeve shirt inside, while the exterior leans towards a sports jacket style. It possesses strong elasticity and stretch, and the material feels smooth and resistant to pilling.
“Could you please give me a set of each of these two items? As for height, they should be about half a head shorter than me, and for the size... a slightly larger size would be better.”
The salesperson understood and secretly chuckled while covering her mouth. Ye Feng's blushing appearance made her heart flutter even more, but unfortunately, he already had a girlfriend.
“Okay, please have the guest wait a moment, I will go select the appropriate size now.”
