Chapter 322 - Finding a soulmate
After Shen's mother got into the car with Li Zixin and Liu Qianqian, Shen's mother squeezed Li Zixin's hand and said to her, "Zixin, I am really thanks to you today, thinking that I have been rolling in this circle for so many years, who of them dares to look down on me, they all know that my Shen family is a rich and powerful family, and none of them want to compare me, although there are some jokes today, but you can come out and help me talk and let them all shut up for me, I really want to thank you." ”
Li Zixin knows what kind of consequences the things she did before will have on Shen's mother, and she knows even more clearly how she will change herself if she comes out to help Shen's mother speak like this, it seems that she guessed correctly, what she got will be a reward proportional to this effort.
Lin Xiaoxiao was burned in the morning, so she stayed in the house and didn't go out until Shen Juntuo came back to find out that it was already late.
Shen Juntuo pushed the door and went in and saw her when she was nested in bed, he walked over and asked, "Wife, why isn't Mom at home?" ”
Shen Juntuo seemed to have forgotten that Shen's mother said that she was going to a banquet yesterday, and he had too many things to deal with when he came back to the company, so he didn't think about that.
Lin Xiaoxiao replied casually, "Didn't she go to the banquet with Li Zixin and Liu Qianqian?" Yesterday I said you forgot! ”
"yes, why didn't I forget, why didn't you go with it?" Shen Juntuo walked over and sat on the edge of the bed and hugged Lin Xiaoxiao.
"I'm not interested in playing with them, and besides, you don't know that I'm injured today!" Lin Xiaoxiao stretched out her scalded leg with a pout.
Shen Juntuo was distressed when he opened the thin skirt and saw the red and swollen patch, "How can it be so serious, doesn't it mean that it's okay?" ”
Lin Xiaoxiao replied with some grievances, "I didn't think it was anything at the time, but later I learned that being burned hurt in the back, so I kept burning on the bed and didn't go anywhere, and besides, even if I went out, no one would give me a good face, so I might as well not go out." ”
"I'll take you to the hospital now, I think it's really distressing to death." Lin Xiaoxiao leaned into Shen Juntuo's arms, feeling that she was already very comforted at this time, at least Shen Juntuo was still by her side.
"I think it's better to forget it, if your mother knew, she would say I was making a fuss! You haven't eaten, go eat. I want to sleep. Lin Xiaoxiao said and fell down on the bed.
Shen Juntuo looked at her with a smile, did she still feel tired after lying in bed for a day?
After pulling the quilt and covering Lin Xiaoxiao, she carefully walked out of the bedroom, and Lin Xiaoxiao also closed her eyes and fell asleep.
When Shen Juntuo came out, he happened to see Shen's mother, Li Zixin and Liu Qianqian walking in from the outside, and Shen's mother's expression was that satisfied at first glance.
Shen Juntuo stepped forward and called Shen's mother, who came in, "Mom, I'm very happy to see you go out today, did you encounter something happy?" ”
When Shen's mother goes to these banquets and so on, she will always have more or less ridicule of those noble ladies or be dissatisfied with them, and those women also have some excess jealousy towards Shen's mother.
"Of course, I met a happy thing, you talk about you, you brought back such a famous designer and didn't tell me, almost made me ugly at today's auction, and I also made those women who used to be jealous and envious of me even more envious today." Mother Shen pulled Li Zixin to sit on the sofa with a proud look.
Li Zixin also followed the micro-pen, although she didn't say a word at this time, but in Shen Juntuo's eyes, she also understood what she had done, Liu Qianqian didn't think anything about it, along the way, Shen's mother didn't know how many times she praised Li Zixin, and her ears were about to become calloused.
"You talk, I'll go back to the room to take a shower first, it's really boring today!" Liu Qianqian went upstairs directly after saying it without any politeness, and she didn't even say goodbye to Shen's mother and Shen Juntuo.
Mother Shen frowned, "Qianqian is really getting more and more disagreeable, and she almost made me ugly today." ”
Shen Juntuo knew that Shen's mother was the most important face issue in front of outsiders, how unhappy she would be if Liu Qianqian lost her face, and today it must be Li Zixin who helped save face.
"Haven't you gotten used to her child!" Shen Juntuo smiled, thinking that it was not superfluous for Shen's mother to say this? She knows best how Liu Qianqian is, most of the time she is used to it, and it seems a bit too much to say that she is embarrassed now.
"It's only now that I feel that she is becoming more and more disagreeable, I don't know how to be well-behaved in front of those women, I only know how to make trouble for me, if it weren't for Zixin today, I think I would have become everyone's laughing stock today, and in the future, where do you see where I still have the face to go to that kind of party."
Shen's mother said that she was even more angry, if Liu Qianqian could be as generous and decent as Li Zixin, it would be great.
"She is so virtuous, how do you let her change, you have to be unaccustomed to changing it!" Shen Juntuo reminded, but Shen's mother didn't seem to feel that she was used to Liu Qianqian, she looked at Li Zixin and then smiled at her.
Tightly held Li Zixin's hand, "Zixin, you are really a good girl, you are beautiful and cultivated, and you can compare those women to you." If you don't have anything to do, stay here for a while longer, stay with me! ”
Li Zixin was right in her arms when she heard it, she just wanted Shen's mother to make this decision to reveal her identity on that occasion, but she didn't expect to win.
"Aunt Shen, look at what you said, I really can't wait to stay here longer, and I want to accompany you more." Li Zixin smiled and shook Shen's mother's hand, the tacit understanding between the two is really incomparable to ordinary people.
Shen Juntuo saw that the two were so familiar, and he had an uneasy illusion, feeling that Shen's mother and Li Zixin being together would only bring more trouble to Lin Xiaoxiao and put Lin Xiaoxiao in trouble.
"Let's talk, I'll go to dinner." Shen Juntuo got up and left after speaking, he became more and more worried about Lin Xiaoxiao's status in this family and whether she would be bullied by them.
Shen's mother didn't greet Shen Juntuo either, and chatted with Li Zixin in the living room until late before going to bed, as if the two old people hadn't seen each other for a long time.
The next morning, Liu Qianqian followed Shen Juntuo to the company without even eating breakfast, she had already decided to take Shen Juntuo down in the company, and Lin Xiaoxiao continued to be a housewife at home, although her leg was injured, but she still had to do those things that could move her hands, Li Zixin and Shen's mother were basking in the sun and drinking tea in the garden all morning, and they were very happy.
Lin Xiaoxiao also did everything she had to do without complaint, she just felt that if she was born in an ordinary family, she would have to do these things, and she would have to take care of her mother-in-law, now fortunately, her mother-in-law is healthy and can take care of herself, she just does some housework, she is still competent, but a heart to fight for her career has been buried.
Liu Qianqian was appointed as Shen Juntuo's special assistant in the company, Liu Dan only managed the affairs of the work, and Liu Qianqian was in charge of some trivial things in life.
She pestered Shen Juntuo in the company, making Shen Juntuo feel like he was being tortured even in a meeting, he knew that Liu Qianqian wanted to cultivate a relationship with him in the company, but that relationship also had to be able to be cultivated, and he was entangled in whether to transfer Liu Qianqian away.
And every day Liu Qianqian just followed Shen Juntuo to commute to work, and now she followed him even when he went to meetings and participated in some necessary business banquets.
And that night, Shen Juntuo originally wanted Lin Xiaoxiao to accompany him to a commercial banquet, but Shen's mother deliberately asked Lin Xiaoxiao to stay at home to make dinner, saying that she was unwell and wanted to eat the red bean porridge made by Lin Xiaoxiao, you must know that you have to stay in the kitchen to cook the red bean porridge, and you can't leave for a moment, so Lin Xiaoxiao's opportunity to go out this time was snatched away by Liu Qianqian, and Li Zixin said something with Shen's mother at home, which made Shen's mother feel that Lin Xiaoxiao was not worthy of being the hostess of this house, so she made it difficult for her everywhere.
Lin Xiaoxiao is a daughter-in-law who has endured for a long time, if she was more anxious, she would not let Shen's mother be so embarrassed, let alone make outsiders so happy.
Standing in the kitchen, she could only watch Shen Juntuo and Liu Qianqian get into the car and leave the Shen Mansion together.
After Liu Qianqian got into the car, she became even more proud, sat in the passenger seat and happily made up some makeup for herself, and after arriving at the hotel, Liu Qianqian got out of the car directly and grabbed Shen Juntuo's arm, and then walked in with him very generously.
As soon as Shen Juntuo entered, he saw a lot of business partners, and most of those people saw Shen Juntuo's wife Lin Xiaoxiao at the last banquet, and knew her appearance better, but everyone was a little surprised when it was Liu Qianqian who was brought out this time.
It's just that Liu Qianqian herself also has some friendship with them, and she usually has a lot of differences with Shen Juntuo, and in everyone's eyes, she is already the identity of Shen Juntuo's secretary, which is well known.
This banquet was held by the CEO of a company who came back from abroad, so he would not know Liu Qianqian, and when he saw Shen Juntuo and Liu Qianqian coming, he hurriedly sent the wine up and raised a glass to prepare to Shen Juntuo, Liu Qianqian was very obedient on the side, watching Shen Juntuo chatting with him, and at this time, the boss's wife came over and saw the beautiful Liu Qianqian and opened her mouth.
"This is Mr. Shen's wife, she is really young and beautiful, she must be a good hand of Mr. Shen in the company!" The boss's wife had never seen Lin Xiaoxiao, and when Liu Qianqian was Shen Juntuo's wife, Shen Juntuo suddenly felt that something was wrong, but Liu Qianqian stepped forward and grabbed the boss's wife before Shen Juntuo could correct it.
