Section 214

To prevent these people from associating it with the truth, he explained the reason casually.

As for the protagonist knowing the truth?

What use was it even if he knew?

Father Li and Mother Li came to a sudden realization.

No wonder.

No wonder Xu Hao cared so much about their daughter.

So he valued their daughter's ability.

Being valued by the boss meant their daughter could soon become a high-level executive of the Xu Group; that was incredible.

Suppressing her excitement, Mother Li invited him.

"President Xu, thank you for your regard for Yunshu. I will definitely urge her to work hard."

"Right, President Xu, you haven't eaten yet, have you? Since you're here, come inside and sit for a while. Yunshu and I will cook right away…"

Father Li and Mother Li looked at Xu Hao expectantly.

Xu Hao had helped their family a lot, and they wanted to do their humble best to show their gratitude.

"This… then I'll be intruding…"

Xu Hao feigned hesitation and agreed after a moment.

Li Xiao froze on the spot, feeling his brain was a mess of paste.

Then his gaze turned firm.

"I don't know what you're up to, but if you want to hurt My sister, I'll fight you to the death…"

[Ding… Li Xiao gritted his teeth, Emotion Points +852…]

There were vegetables at home, and before long, a table of delicious food was ready.

Father Li took out the Nü'er Hong wine he had treasured for many years.

He originally intended to save it to drink on the day his daughter got married.

Since Xu Hao had arrived today and they really had nothing else to entertain him with, they simply took it out to drink in advance.

"President Xu, this was made by Yunshu herself. Her culinary skills are even better than mine. Please give it a try…"

Mother Li was very enthusiastic towards Xu Hao.

She gave her daughter a wink, signaling her to pick food for Xu Hao.

Li Yunshu felt a little embarrassed.

Hesitating for a moment, and thinking of how well Xu Hao had treated her, she gritted her teeth, picked up her chopsticks, and served food to Xu Hao.

"President Xu, how does it taste?"

Seeing Xu Hao eat the fish, Li Yunshu asked with anxiety.

"Yunshu's cooking skills are quite good."

Xu Hao expressed his appreciation for her culinary skills.

"Re… really?"

Li Yunshu rejoiced.

She finally felt that all her years of cooking had been worth it.

"Then Uncle Xu, eat more."

Li Yunshu continued to pick food for Xu Hao.

Li Xiao sat aside in depression.

Watching his family fawn over Xu Hao, he felt so distressed in his heart that he wanted to spit blood.

His sister, Li Yunshu, served food to Xu Hao without any avoidance.

Li Xiao's pupils suddenly shrank.

He had to stop this as soon as possible.

Otherwise, given Xu Hao's methods of wooing the female lead who was a beautiful landlady, My sister would sink deeper and deeper and be unable to extricate herself.

[Ding… Li Xiao burned with rage, Emotion Points +987…]

The meal came to an end.

Father Li was already drunk.

Both Xu Hao and Li Xiao possessed strength and had a resistance to alcohol, so nothing happened to them.

"Thank you for your hospitality. It's getting late, and I should head back too."

Xu Hao glanced at the sky and said goodbye to the Li family.

"Alright… Given the state of our family, we won't try to keep President Xu anymore. Yunshu, see President Xu off…"

Mother Li did not urge him to stay.

If it were anyone else, she could have let them stay to rest at home.

But given Xu Hao's status, coupled with their family's poverty-stricken appearance, she really felt too embarrassed.

"Mom, I'll go. I had some friction with President Xu earlier, and I'd like to take this opportunity to apologize to President Xu…"

Li Xiao immediately spoke up.

How could he watch My sister stay alone with Xu Hao?

What if Xu Hao made some excessive demands, and My sister found it hard to refuse because of his help, half-heartedly giving in?

Then he would be the one crying.

"That's fine too. President Xu is a good person; stop being suspicious all the time and properly apologize to President Xu…"

Father Li could tell there was friction between the two of them.

But he didn't know the specific situation, nor did he know how to resolve it.

Not expecting his good-for-nothing son to have such awareness, he immediately instructed him.

Li Yunshu pulled a long face, seeming unhappy because she wasn't allowed to see Xu Hao off…

Tonight the night was very beautiful.

The bright moon hung high, and the stars were brilliant.

Xu Hao walked outside, and Li Xiao followed closely behind step by step.

Unwittingly, the two had arrived in front of a car, where Bai Ling inside was coldly gazing at him.

"Wait a minute."

Seeing that Xu Hao was about to get into the car, Li Xiao called out to stop him.

"Here it comes."

Xu Hao muttered inwardly, a smile hooking the corner of his mouth as he turned around calmly.

"Little Brother Li, is there something you need?"

"Xu Hao, there's no need to be hypocritical in front of me. Let's speak our minds directly."

Li Xiao took a deep breath and said.

"What on earth do you want in order to let My sister go?"

"What do you mean? Why don't I quite understand?"

Xu Hao feigned confusion.

"Is this interesting? I already said there's no one else here. Aren't you tired of keeping up the act?"

"You meticulously plotted against My sister and engineered a 'hero saves the beauty' trick again today—isn't it all for My sister?"

Finishing his sentence, Li Xiao stared straight at Xu Hao, wanting to see something in his eyes.

But he was disappointed.

Xu Hao's expression remained calm and unruffled throughout.

That's right, he suspected that this demolition was also self-directed and acted out by Xu Hao.

Although when he read the novel, he was just a minor character with almost no scenes.

But judging from how he attentively followed the Chu family father and son, his family probably hadn't encountered any trouble before.

But now, the Li family was having conflicts with people over the demolition, to the point of being forced.

Similar situations happening.

He figured his previous self wouldn't just sit by and do nothing.

Of course, it was also possible that it was resolved by him, but it just wasn't written down.

Therefore, he wanted to see a change in Xu Hao's eyes.
