Chapter 1524 A Big Shot
âMrs. Li.â
Li Muen waited for five minutes before she found an opportunity to interrupt. She said with a smile, âIâve known Senior Xiaohao for a long time. He usually helps me a lot at school. Iâve brought a gift for our first meeting. I hope you like it.â
After that, Li Muen took out the bracelet.
Hearing this, Li Xiaohaoâs mother smiled and said, âOh, youâre too courteous. Thank you, Muen. This bracelet? Itâs really nice. Well, itâs too valuable.â
She couldnât figure out what it was made of, but she could tell that it was a valuable bracelet.
She was slightly shocked. âShe is indeed Li Kaiâs daughter. She is so generous.â
âXiaohao, why didnât you tell me about her visit in advance? I didnât prepare any gifts. How about this? Muen, Iâll make it up to you tomorrow,â Li Xiaohaoâs mother said.
âThereâs no need for that, Mrs. Li. Itâs okay. Weâre just here for a simple visit.â Li Muen waved her hand repeatedly.
Seeing this, Li Xiaohaoâs mother didnât say anything about it. Instead, she talked about something else. After observing for a while, she felt that Li Muen was really nice and found her more and more pleasing to the eye.
At first, when she saw Mengmeng, she was actually amazed.
She had thought that Li Xiaohao was pursuing Mengmeng, but now it seemed that although Mengmeng was beautiful, she might not be suitable. Li Muen was good-looking, virtuous, gentle, and generous. This was Li Xiaohaoâs motherâs impression of Li Muen, which was absolutely high.
She was good at observing people. The point was that Li Muen was really excellent.
Li Muen and Mengmeng lived in different environments. Since they were young, they had been playing with each other. Maybe the ones who hung out with Mengmeng didnât have the mind of rivalry.
At first, they might compete with her, but later they found that the gap between them was too big. Gradually, they found that it was meaningless to compete with her.
It was like Zhang Han treated Mengmengâs addiction to the Internet.
He didnât directly defeat her in the games, but he taught her a lot and made her the top gamer. After that, she found playing online games quite boring since no one could be a match for her.
The whole process of visiting the Li Family was very pleasant.
After dinner, Mengmeng and the other two said goodbye and prepared to go back to the hotel.
In the end, Li Xiaohaoâs mother did not insist on having them stay and repeatedly told Li Xiaohao to take good care of them.
After Li Xiaohao left, his mother strolled to the head of the family, and her husband and a few other people were talking about something.
âWhy are you here?â Li Xiaohaoâs father asked. There was a trace of displeasure on his face.
He usually couldnât participate in such discussions or small meetings. This meeting happened to include his companyâs cooperation, and that was why he got to have a seat there.
Everyone present was from the core loop, especially the head of the Li Family, who didnât like to be disturbed when he was talking about business.
Although he didnât say anything about Li Xiaohaoâs mother coming over, it would not be great if he was displeased.
However, since Li Xiaohaoâs mother was already there, her husband had no choice but to criticize her.
In fact, he blinked his eyes, indicating that he would play along.
âWhatâs the matter?â
Li Xiaohaoâs mother was not worried at all. She said with a smile, âOur son is in a relationship recently.â
âWhat?â Li Xiaohaoâs father was stunned.
There were few males in the Li Family, and generally speaking, the family elders would be the ones to arrange the youngstersâ marriage. This was also an unwritten rule in the family.
He had never expected that she was here to talk about such a thing.
âIt doesnât matter if heâs in a relationship. He can date someone secretly. Why is she talking about this here?â
Li Xiaohaoâs father sighed in his heart.
The other members of the Li Family, including the family head, also looked a bit displeased. The family head picked up his tea and drank it.
Li Xiaohaoâs mother didnât keep them guessing and said directly, âXiaohao is dating Li Kaiâs daughter from Xiangjiang.â
âLi Kai from Xiangjiang?â Li Xiaohaoâs father was stunned and then said happily, âReally?â
The others were also shocked. Li Kai from Xiangjiang was quite a powerful figure in the loop.
âItâs true.â Li Xiaohaoâs mother nodded. âHow could I joke about this kind of thing? They just came to visit.â
âThis boyâŠâ Li Xiaohaoâs father laughed and looked at the family head and the others. âXiaohao is a junior now. Heâs supposed to be dating.â
âHmm, not bad. Li Kai is a big shot in Xiangjiang.â The family head showed approval. âBut our Li Family in Shang Jing is also an aristocratic family with a history of 100 years. In this respect, Li Xiaohao should know what he is doing. He needs to keep in mind that he is a member of the Li Family and should take the initiative.â
âYes, Iâll go back and remind him.â Li Xiaohaoâs father smiled and asked, âWhy didnât you bring the girl here?â
âThey went back to the hotel. Not only Xiaohaoâs girlfriend but also her two best friends came over,â Li Xiaohaoâs mother said.
Li Xiaohaoâs father was a little happy. Seeing that the family head and the others didnât want to continue the conversation, he asked casually, âWhatâs her name?â
âHer name is Li Muen. Sheâs very pretty. The more I look at her, the more I feel that she looks nice. Sheâs a good girl. Itâs the first time she came to our house, and she gave me a bracelet.â
Li Xiaohaoâs mother raised her wrist.
Everyone looked over and found nothing special about it.
âItâs quite comfortable to wear it.â Li Xiaohaoâs mother intended to leave after saying a few words. âBy the way, Li Muenâs two best friends are also very beautiful and lovely. Since they can become her best friends, their families should not be ordinary. One is called Yue Xiaonao, and the other is Zhang Yumeng.â
âOh, okay, I see. If thereâs nothing else, you can go back first.â Li Xiaohaoâs father waved his hand.
Just as Li Xiaohaoâs mother was about to leave, the family head drank the tea with a puzzled look in his eyes. He was pondering.
Poof!
The next second, the family head spat out all the tea in his mouth.
âChief, why did you choke on your tea?â a man asked.
Another one asked, âWhatâs wrong?â
Under these peopleâs gazes, the family headâs eyes widened. He was choked badly. He staggered to stand up and stretched out his right hand like a zombie.
He said to Li Xiaohaoâs mother, âTake, take me to visit them now.â
âTo visit who?â Li Xiaohaoâs mother was stunned.
âChief, calm down. Whatâs going on?â
âCould it be that heâs having a seizure?â a middle-aged man exclaimed.
âPiss off.â
The head of the Li Family was so angry that his face turned red, but he was more excited. He looked at Li Xiaohaoâs mother and said, âLet me ask you, is Zhang Yumeng very beautiful and comes from Xiangjiang?â
âYes, yes.â For some reason, Li Xiaohaoâs mother was a little confused at this time.
Smack!
The family head clapped his hands very hard.
âYes, yes, it must be her!â
Li Xiaohaoâs father stood up and asked, âChief, what exactly is going on?â
The others were also at a loss.
âYou donât understand.â The family head sighed deeply. âIâve heard that Zhang Yumeng has a shocking background.â
He still remembered that when he participated in an extremely high-class event, where he didnât even dare to breathe heavily, some people at the table had mentioned Zhang Yumeng.
âThe martial arts world is much more peaceful now. Thatâs good. We only need to watch out for Mount New Moon.â
âZhang Yumeng, the princess of Mount New Moon, has grown up. She certainly canât stay idle and needs to go through some training occasionally. As the old saying goes, itâs better to offend Zhang Hanyang than provoke his dearest ones, especially his daughter. She is someone you canât afford to offend.â
âI heard that Zhang Yumeng is extremely beautiful, but Iâve never seen her.â
âDonât you know who her mother is? How can Zhang Hanyangâs woman be ordinary? Zhang Yumeng is super powerful, and so is Mount New Moon. Isnât the ancient martial arts world arrogant some time ago? But what happened now?â
ââŠâ
Thinking of this, the head family trembled with excitement. He thought that it would be great if his family was related to Zhang Yumeng.
He said, âDonât woo Li Muen. Go after Zhang Yumeng!â
If people in the martial arts world heard about this, they would probably gasp.
They would think that he had gone crazy.
âWell, Chief, I donât think itâs a good idea. Li Muen is a very good girl. Besides, Zhang Yumeng is too beautiful. Sheâs a little ethereal. Xiaohao may not be able to win her heart. And once he woos her, heâll have no chance to be with Li Muen,â Li Xiaohaoâs mother said.
She liked Li Muen more because she felt that Li Muen was a suitable match for her son, who was down-to-earth.
But Mengmeng gave her a completely different feeling.
Mengmeng was so amazing that it made her have no confidence in her son at all. She had never dared to think that she would feel this way.
âYouâre right. We need to be careful. I was impulsive.â The family head sat down and took a few sips of tea. âTell me the details.â
After Li Xiaohaoâs mother finished speaking, he laughed happily.
âItâs also great that sheâs a best friend of Xiaohaoâs girlfriend. Your family has really made a great contribution to the Li Family.â
His words made Li Xiaohaoâs father very happy. It seemed that the burden on his shoulders had become much heavier.
On the other side.
Mengmeng and the others returned to the hotel.
âAhhh! Mengmeng, I was so nervous when we first went there.â
Li Muen lay on the bed and said, âI met his mother so soon. Oh, Iâm so at a loss.â
âWhy should you be at a loss?â Mengmeng rolled her eyes grumpily.
âLook, youâve become like this just because you have a boyfriend. Look at your expression. You look like a little slut,â Yue Xiaonao joked.
âOf course not.â
Li Muen said, âItâs not normal to be single in college. Weâre all adults.â
Then, Li Muen sat up and said, âMengmeng, Xiaonao, havenât you ever thought about dating someone?â
âUh, no.â Mengmeng hesitated for a moment and said truthfully, âI canât think of any boy who is suitable for me. The point is that no one can defeat my dad. Thatâs it. Iâm definitely not in a hurry to be in a relationship. Iâm still young.â
âAfter New Year, weâll be 20 years old,â Li Muen said. âIt is the prime of our lives when we are 20 to 30 years old.â
It was not the same for cultivators.
Yue Xiaonaoâs lips moved, but she didnât say anything in the end.
She thought for a moment and said, âWe donât care if you have a boyfriend or not. It seems that Li Xiaohao is not bad anyway. You can stay together with him now. When you want to join our loop, we will take you to cultivate.â
âYouâre so nice to me, Sister Nao,â Li Muen said with a smile.
âWeâve been besties for so many years.â Yue Xiaonao raised her eyebrows.
Mengmeng said, âEven if youâre in love, donât rush it. We can observe Li Xiaohao for a while longer. What if he fakes his feelings and is actually a jerk?â
âHe definitely isnât. I can feel it,â Li Muen said confidently.
Mengmeng and Yue Xiaonao exchanged a look.
Sure enough, a girl in love would become stupid.
