"If she dares, I'll fight her to the death!" Eldest Uncle's Wife stood up, pointing at Li Jianguo.
"Stop talking nonsense; do you even know who Mr. Song is? If you fight him, he won't need to go to jail to take your life!"
"Co with , just don't worry about this. I'll go apologize myself later."
"You're so unruly, but your son seems sensible!" Li Jianguo had a good impression of Li Fengrao.
"What are you talking about!"
"Just leave, aren't you embarrassed!" Li Fengrao shoved his own mother out the door, then closed it.
"Uncle, Aunt, my mom was wrong, I apologize on her behalf."
Li Jianguo and his wife exchanged a glance, feeling a bit guilty.
"Don't worry, Xiaodong isn't unreasonable like that. He might just be trying to scare you a bit. Once he calms down, invite him for a al and give him an out; everything will be fine then," Li Jianguo said to Li Fengrao.
"Alright, alright, I'm at ease with your words, Uncle. I'll be going now."
"Mm."
Li Fengrao then took Eldest Uncle's Wife away.
"Son, why are you here? You don't need to be; it's my fault, don't worry, I'll definitely get the license back for you," Eldest Uncle's Wife said to Li Fengrao.
"Mom, can you just stop making a fuss!" Li Fengrao snapped, yelling at Eldest Uncle's Wife.
"Don't lose your temper, what's wrong, how am I making a fuss!"
"Could you...think it through before acting?"
"Before it was just Mr. Song Xiaodong angry, now you've annoyed even Li Sijie, you won't have anywhere to plead for rcy!"
"Pleading for what? I'll just go demand it, he has to give it!"
"Mom, haven't you hard
enough!" Li Fengrao finally exploded, his face turning red, eyebrows furrowed tightly, biting his cheeks, staring at his own mother.
"Can you not ss things up, alright? Just go dance in the square at the park, alright? Aren't you tired of ddling in my affairs all the ti!"
It was the first ti Li Fengrao shouted like that at his own mother.
Fengrao's Wife was gentle, usually bullied by Eldest Uncle's Wife, but now, it was her own son shouting at her.
"Your wife must have taught you to say that!"
...
Feng Shuo's Wife also called Li Sijie.
"Sijie, what's wrong with your husband? Who works like this? Transferred our Feng Shuo to the Religious Affairs Office, now stuck at Yiquan Temple listening to sermons, it's smoky and he's said his nose has turned black from the smoke, how can relatives do this..."
Li Sijie hung up halfway through hearing it.
Among all the Li Family relatives, Li Sijie disliked Feng Shuo's Wife the most, just like Feng Shuo, speaking in a bureaucratic tone, sarcastic and cynical, an eccentric little boss.
Song Xiaodong happily returned ho with Xiao Yingying, Sun Yiyi, and Chu Xianling.
"Hahaha, you're really too wicked." Sun Yiyi said to Song Xiaodong with a smile.
"Exactly, they open their business just fine, then soone cos to check fire safety; once that's done, they reopen today, only for you to buy the building and make them move." Chu Xianling added.
"How about it? Did you have fun today?" Song Xiaodong asked while gently touching Xiao Yingying's hair in the passenger seat.
"Fun!"
"By the way, invite the Great Director over later; I need to have a serious talk about filming." Song Xiaodong said to Xiao Yingying.
"Okay! I'll arrange it."
Returning ho, they saw Li Sijie sitting on the sofa with a pout, phone tossed on the coffee table, the screen still lit.
"Hey, Sijie, what's the matter? Why's your little mouth so pouty?" Sun Yiyi hugged Li Sijie.
Li Sijie didn't speak, just gestured towards the coffee table.
Xiao Yingying picked up the phone.
"Hahaha, Sister Sijie's relatives called her again." Xiao Yingying said.
"What's wrong, unhappy again?" Song Xiaodong sat on the other side of Li Sijie.
"Her Eldest Uncle's Wife and sister-in-law just visited her," Miao Qingqing explained on behalf of Li Sijie.
"What did they say?" Song Xiaodong asked Li Sijie.
"Threatened , said if I don't give Fengrao the license there'd be no end to it. Also said I wasn't being a proper relative." Li Sijie got angry again just rembering it.
"Forget them, let them ss around for a couple days, and see if they stay arrogant."
"Alright!"
Qiao Yutong entered the detention center on the first night, went back to work the next day, and first thing in the morning, went to Director Zhao's office to report.
"What were you thinking?" Director Zhao was already in a bad mood early in the morning.
"Director Zhao, don't be angry so early in the morning." Qiao Yutong felt a bit nervous.
"I told you to escort Mr. Song, look what you did," Director Zhao said while putting on glasses, picking up a file to read.
"You got
a case of reckless driving, illegally entering a construction zone, and driving under the influence." Director Zhao glanced up.
"Well, Director Zhao..." Qiao Yutong started to explain, but Director Zhao waved a hand, signaling her not to speak.
"Enough, Secretary Liu already told ."
"I realize, whenever it cos to Song Xiaodong, you ss up royally," Director Zhao looked up at the head-drooped Qiao Yutong.
"Do you have a crush on him?" Director Zhao asked Qiao Yutong.
"No..." Qiao Yutong's voice was barely audible.
"Alright, I'm already sixty, you think I can't see through your little feelings? Mr. Song Xiaodong has abilities and a special situation, lots of wives, you either accept it and stay with them, or distance yourself if you can't; don't end up losing your job without even getting the man." Director Zhao crossed his legs, impatiently shoved so docunts aside on the table.
