Li Su looked at the list of books recommended by Lisa and wondered, “Are they really useful?”
“I have over twenty years of experience. I can promise you that the ten I found for you are definitely the best of the best. They were all found according to your requirements. They are all about hating your wife for a while, then having to chase the wife after! Don’t worry!” Lisa said, patting her chest.
Li Su rolled her eyes. “Okay, I’ll read it first, then I’ll talk about it later.”
“Didn’t you say you don’t read romance? Why do you suddenly want to read it? Could it be that you are in a situation? Oh who are you interested in? Tell me, my sisters will help you!” Lisa said suddenly.
Li Su glared at her. “Don’t talk such nonsense. A-Yuan and I are in love and I will protect him like jade in this life. This is for my son.”
“Your son?” Lisa was surprised that Li Su was talking about Lin Jihao. “Lin Jihao… That’s true. He should read more books on this subject. His emotional intelligence is too low.”
“You think so too? Alas, it’s my fault. I used to think that the world was just A-Yuan and I, and ignored Jihao. Before I knew it, this child had grown into this temperament. I’m worried about him. Will he be able to find a wife in the future? Well, A-Yuan has only one son, and I also hope that he will get married and have children as soon as possible so that he can continue the family!” Li Su said.
Lisa rolled her eyes. “Look at you. You really think of yourself as Lin Jihao’s biological mother! No matter how nice you are to him, he is not your biological son, so he will still be on guard against you.”
“He can think what he likes. I will think how I want. I’m not doing this for him. This is for A-Yuan.” Li Su found one of the articles on her cell phone and read it.
Seeing her like this, Lisa knew that she didn’t want to say any more. She shook her head helplessly. Forget it.
When Lin Siyuan was alive, he didn’t see how Su Su loved him. Why was it that when Lin Siyuan was gone, Su Su was so affectionate and righteous? Was this really a matter of one regretting it when the other is gone? Lisa can only explain it this way when she thought about Li Su’s recent behaviour.
Alas, one should cherish the moment. Lisa felt that she should treat her husband better in the future, so that she wouldn’t regret it in the future.
Lin Jihao looked at the book list sent by his stepmother on his cell phone, and felt a little bit of a headache coming. Just by looking at the names of these books, he knew what they were. Has his stepmother forgotten how old he was this year? Weren’t parents generally not supportive of puppy love? How come it was the other way around for his stepmother?
Lin Jihao was still confused. Li Su sent a message and Lin Jihao opened it. “I’ve read all these books, they are really good. Although the names are a bit cheesy, the content is really good. You should take a look. It will be very helpful in improving your emotional intelligence and to get along with girls in the future. You must read them. It will be better if you write down your thoughts after reading it.”
Lin Jihao’s face darkened. He couldn’t help but reflect on whether he had indulged his stepmother too much recently. Otherwise, how could she come up with such a funny idea? He was supposed to write some of his thoughts afterwards?
Lin Jihao had a dark expression and threw the phone in the drawer. When he thought about it, he got angry.
But in the quiet of the night when he was about to rest, Lin Jihao thought about it again. He turned on his phone, glanced at the book list, and then randomly selected one and read it.
However, it took Lin Jihao about 40 minutes to read the 200,000 characters. How should he put it? Although the plot was a bit old-fashioned, the author’s writing was good. It was lively and interesting. But, was there really such a stupid male protagonist in this world? When he liked someone, he didn’t know it and didn’t understand. It was only after the heroine left him did he understand his true feelings. Then he embarked on a long road to chase his wife?
If it was him, he wouldn’t be so stupid! Definitely not! This was the only thought Lin Jihao had before he fell asleep.
The next morning during breakfast, Li Su appeared at the dining table. She stared at Lin Jihao’s dark circles with great interest. “What did you do last night? You look pretty bad.”
Lin Jihao had a dark expression and didn’t say anything.
Li Su didn’t take his expression seriously and sat down opposite him. “By the way, have you read what I sent you? What do you think?”
Lin Jihao’s face turned even darker when he heard the words! Last night he had a dream, just like that series. In the dream, a girl whom he couldn’t see clearly appeared beside him. The girl was very smart and helped him a lot. While they got to know each other, the girl fell in love with him and confessed to him despite her shyness. He accepted her confession. But when the two were together, he suspected the girl had some ulterior motives, so he was on guard against her all the time. He even humiliated her. In the end, the girl couldn’t stand his cold violence and proposed breaking up and resigning at the same time.
After the girl left, he realised that he really liked that girl. So he began to look for her. When he found the girl, he discovered that there was already someone beside the girl.
In the dream, he was extremely jealous and crazily targetted the man. He even framed that man, but unfortunately, no matter what he did, the girl always stood by that man’s side and would not even spare him a glance.
Then, he woke up!
Lin Jihao felt that had such an absurd dream because he read that webnovel before he went to bed! How could he be so stupid? If he had a woman he liked, he would definitely keep her by his side. How could he be so stupid?!
Thinking of this, Lin Jihao raised his head and glared at Li Su, if it wasn’t for her, how could he have such a stupid dream.
The initiator of all this was unaware and calmly ate breakfast. Lin Jihao looked angry and put down his spoon. “I’m full. I’m going to the company.”
Li Su snorted. When Lin Jihao changed his shoes, she suddenly said, “Remember to read what I recommended.”
Lin Jihao swayed and almost fell.
Lin Jihao was sitting in the car. Secretary Wang was reporting his itinerary today. Lin Jihao suddenly opened his eyes. “Help me buy some books that can improve EQ. Or, if there are tutorials online, help me download them.”
Secretary Wang was stunned. What? Did he hear right? Was his boss taking the wrong medicine? Or, was there something he didn’t know about?
However, Lin Jihao stopped talking.
Secretary Wang had no choice but to nodded stiffly. “Yes.”
Lin Jihao looked at the scenery through the window. He wouldn’t do such a stupid thing. He definitely wouldn’t!
Lin Jihao was sitting in the office when the phone rang. He glanced at Secretary Wang, who quickly put down the documents and went out first.
“Speak.”
After the person on the other end of the phone said a few words, Lin Jihao smiled with satisfaction. “Try to get the building at a price 30% lower than the market price. After you get it, transfer it to my stepmother!” This was a reward for her freely transferring the shares to him!
An hour later, Lin Jihao received a call again. He smiled proudly. In the end, he won this game. His good second uncle… Don’t worry. This was only the beginning.
Li Su didn’t even know that she had an additional building under her name, or that the building belonged to Lin Siheng before. At this time, she was embarking on another charity trip with her best friends.
Lin Siheng finally found out who bought the property he sold after inquiring from various sources. He thought it was Lin Jihao. He didn’t expect that it was Li Su!
His hatred was at an all-time high. Lin Siheng’s eyes flashed with a hint of cruelty. He took out his cell phone and called someone out.
“Why are you calling me?” Chen Zhijie glared at Lin Siheng. If it hadn’t been for Lin Siheng, Chen Zhijie wouldn’t be where he was today. How could Lin Siheng have the face to ask him to meet?
For the past six months, Chen Zhijie has been like a mouse crossing the street. He didn’t look like the charming third young master of the Chen family of the past. There was a serious crisis in his family’s company, and the family attributed the responsibility to him. Grandpa exiled him to Japan, and he was not allowed to come back.
This time, he was able to return to China for his grandmother’s birthday.
“Don’t look at me like that. If it wasn’t for you, how could we have fallen to this point? The third young master of the Chen family can’t even handle a woman.” Lin Siheng snorted coldly.
“If you have just come to me to ridicule me, then I’m leaving!” Chen Zhijie stood up.
“Don’t worry. Let’s sit down and have a good talk. You and I are in this situation today. Isn’t it all that bitch, Li Su’s, fault?! Don’t you hate her? Or, are you willing to just let her go?” Lin Siheng gritted his teeth.
Chen Zhijie’s eyes darkened. Did he hate her? Of course! How could he not hate her?!
Chen Zhijie took advantage of Li Su in the beginning. After all, he was young, promising, and handsome. How could he like an old woman seven or eight years older than him? But after he got with her for a while, Chen Zhijie found that this old woman was not so bad. She was rich, beautiful, and most importantly, charming. She was much better than those ignorant girls.
Chen Zhijie gradually had some real feelings towards Li Su. The sweet words he and Li Su said at the beginning were not entirely false. He really planned that, when Li Su sold the shares she had, they would emigrate to a foreign country and live as a couple happily.
As for how long they would be together for… It probably depended on when Chen Zhijie got bored!
But, Chen Zhijie never thought that… He still had those sweet words in his mind, but Li Su suddenly changed her attitude.
Overnight, Chen Zhijie fell from heaven to hell. And what made him unwilling the most was that, from the beginning to the end, he did not have any substantial development with Li Su! That made it especially unbearable for Chen Zhijie! He was played like a fool!
“What do you want to do?” Chen Zhijie asked.
Lin Siheng handed Chen Zhijie a document. “It contains what you want. I have arranged the car and the people for you. We are happy to cooperate!”
Chen Zhijie slowly reached out and finally held the document firmly in his hand. “Okay!”
