If Mrs. Xi raised her own child, facing the Li family who felt guilty for retiring the engagement, of course they would take advantage of this shareholder wind to benefit from them.

If there is really no demand, then it is good to keep this favor temporarily.It's just that over time, favors will inevitably depreciate.

It happened to be Xi An.

Thinking of this third son who grew up in the outer city, Mrs. Xi's eyelids began to twitch.She has to admit that she does have the idea that "after more than 20 years of living outside the city, my eyelids are hopelessly shallow".

Even getting Xi An back was accidental. She heard from her little daughter that she had found her brother playing with some inappropriate things.

Mrs. Xi immediately began to tremble with fear.It's not that she's afraid of things. With the status of the Xi family, as long as Xi An doesn't do anything too much to Li Fu, she doesn't care what new moves the third son has.However, the fear is just in case.

With Xi An's vulgar, stupid, out-of-towner character who doesn't know how to assess the situation at all... Mrs. Xi restrained her expression and tone, and asked lightly, "Why haven't you come home for so many days?" After a pause, "It's fine if you don't go home , and didn’t send a message back.”

She was mentally prepared that Xi An would speak again with red eyes, asking her to lobby the Li family.He even thought about it, if Xi An really did this, he wouldn't have to leave the house for a while.

The Xi family didn't need such a worthless son, and Mrs. Xi regretted it even more.If I had known that Xi An was like this, I might as well have kept Xi Xuan.Although he doesn't have the identity of an Omega, he can't consolidate the power of the Xi family through the marriage between A and O, but at least he won't cause trouble for the Xi family.

Under Madam Xi's gaze, Rong Li showed a very subtle expression.

"Oh." He replied vaguely, "Isn't this back?"

Mrs. Xi heard it in her ears, and raised her brows, almost thinking that the situation was developing in the direction she least expected.But looking at the expression of "Xian", it seems that this is not the case.

She decided to ask a little more detail and said, "What are you doing these days."

"Xian" frowned, looking reluctant, but still said: "It's the same as before. Shopping, playing games, what else can I do?"

has a problem.An alarm bell sounded in Mrs. Xi's mind, but this time, the sound of the alarm bell made her relax a little.

She thought uncertainly, she seemed to see the look of an Omega who had just fallen in love from the face of her third son.

Is this true, or am I overthinking it? ... If it is true, who did the third child meet in the past period of time?

At other times, Mrs. Xi would definitely be dissatisfied with the fact that the third son left his family aside, talked to himself and got along with other people, and even developed a deeper relationship.But now it's different, she only wants to solve the "trouble" of Xi'an, and her tolerance for Omega's son's free love has increased significantly.If there is such a person, put Xi An in a good circle, even if it is a C-level, or even a D-level Alpha.

Even if it is Beta, as long as the family background is better, Mrs. Xi will recognize it.

After dinner, Mrs. Xi confirmed her thoughts even more.

"Xian" often smiled quietly when his eyes fell on a certain point.It will also appear absent-minded, holding the terminal and looking over and over again.Someone sent him a new message, and he was immediately pleasantly surprised.After a while, he put on a straight face again, making a calm expression that didn't care about the other party at all.

Madam Xi narrowed her eyes slightly.All right, here, she no longer hesitated.The only question is, should I confront Xi An now and express my support, or let him get along with the person on the other end first and deepen the relationship?

Seeing that the third son had a stern face, but still recalled the news, the middle-aged woman Omega quickly raised the corners of her lips, then pressed down, and said compromised: "There are still many excellent Alphas in the inner city. Li Fu is one of them." , but without him, we, An'an, can find an Alpha that is just as good, or even better."

"Xi An" listened, and the hand on the table slightly closed, turning into a hollow fist.

Mrs. Xi said gently again: "An'an, what mom wants most is that you can find happiness."

These words seemed to have pierced the disguise of indifference on "Xian".He suddenly looked up at Mrs. Xi, his lips trembling slightly.

"Did you think mom was too unreasonable before?" Mrs. Xi simply continued, "Obviously you like Li Fu, why should I agree to the Li family's divorce?

"Li Fu's thoughts are not on you at all. It's not that you are not good, but he has guilt towards that Beta, and that Beta has done a lot of things with this guilt. You really married Li Fu, this is a A thorn between you. Over time, my An'an will suffer more injuries.

"What I'm most afraid of is that at that time, you are not even willing to come to your family for help. In contrast, it is better to be sad for a while now than to be sad for a lifetime in the future."

She is really like a loving mother, expressing her considerations to her son with concern.

If the person sitting in front of him was the real Xi An, he might have started to be moved by now, and wondered whether Li Fu was worth it or not.

It's a pity that Rong Li didn't have these thoughts, he only felt that Mrs. Xi's attitude had changed too much before and after.He was still picky before, how come he is gentle and loving now?

"Thank you mom." Rong Li played to the end, whispering, "You think so much about me, it's because I was ignorant before."

Don't look at the recognition on the mouth, but the expression is still awkward.

Mrs. Xi is already very satisfied.She accepts it as soon as she sees it, and mentions: "Next month, your Grandpa Ye will have a full birthday..."

A day later, these key words appeared in the conversation between Rong Li and Qi Wang.

"It is said to be next month, but in fact it is only about twenty days." Rong Li said, "What is certain is that Director Ye will attend."

He originally thought it was too coincidental, how could the watcher come here whenever he thinks?The smell of conspiracy appeared for a moment, and Rong Li quickly figured it out again.Based on the intertwined and complicated kinship relationships among the five major families in the inner city, it would be an exaggeration to say that there are people related to Director Ye celebrating birthdays every day, but two to three times a month is definitely not an overestimate.

Among them there are a few special people, it is not surprising that even the Xi family has to show a serious attitude.

"If you miss this opportunity," Rong Li said, "you can only wait...uh, 35 days later, Director Ye's little grandson celebrates his birthday."

Qi Wang was puzzled: "With so many activities, don't they find it troublesome?"

"I don't think so," Rong Li said, "I heard from the housekeeper—the live housekeeper—that the Xi family had activities yesterday and the night before. This kind of parties and dinners are part of their lives. There is no work to be done. Do something else."

Qi Wang murmured, "Unbelievable."

Rong Li has no interface, but deep down in his heart, he has the same thoughts as Qi Huang.

In the outer city, some people entered the mining area in their teens, and they couldn't get out of it for the rest of their lives. Instead, they stayed with the blue mine and the dark underground environment day after day.

There is no security in their lives, disabled by the most common accident.Like Daffodil, there are very few people who have been working until they are old, and although they don't save much, they can support her in her later years without illness or worry.

Many more were disabled in the process, never to be seen again.When Rong Li was at the management bureau, he had seen a project to provide pensions to these miners. The one-time payment was equivalent to the daily turnover of Chaosheng Hotel.Participated once, can not participate in the second time for life.

A drop in the bucket.

Rong Li cheered up and said, "If you really meet Director Ye, what are you going to do?"

Qi Wang said: "If you ask him directly, what will he say?"

Rong Li thought: "I don't know. But I asked Ms. Yin this question during dinner yesterday." That is Mrs. Xi, when facing her, Rong Li could call "Mom" with a normal face.When the person is gone, the intimate address will be a little hard to say.Rong Li chose a word that was polite enough but unfamiliar enough to refer to it, and continued casually, "She said, 'Who knows, it's just been there all the time'."

Qi Wang: "Xuan also said the same."

"This is the view shared by the vast majority of people in the inner city." Rong Li judged, "There are two perspectives. Either the authorities really don't know anything, or they know something but actively conceal it."

Qi Wang: "For the former, no matter how much you ask, you won't get an answer. For the latter, if you ask in person, he won't answer."

Rong Li: "Looks like we have the answer."

Qi Wang: "Just need to make some preparations."

"Get ready..." Rong Li smiled.Just at the end of lunch, the home robot brought fruit after the meal.The fruit looks ruddy, plump and juicy.

He took one.One sip, the mouth is instantly filled with sweet taste.

Enjoying sugar is one of human instincts.But now, Rong Li made some resistance to this instinct.

He didn't linger on the taste of this fruit, but continued: "I asked, the place where I celebrate my birthday is not his house, but a restaurant—"

He looked at Qi Huang with a smile.

"Before you treated me to a meal, now it's my turn to treat you."

Qi Huang blinked his eyes and looked very polite: "Okay, then I'd rather be respectful than obedient."

The author has something to say:

I suddenly realized early in the morning that there was a set of peripherals that I had been debating for a long time whether to buy or not, and the pre-orders ended yesterday.
