Li Xuewu sent Gu Ning to the door of the villa and told Gu Ning when he got off the car: "Let's go to the godmother's house tonight and I will prepare the gifts."
Gu Ning stood by the car door, looked at Li Xuewu, and asked hesitantly: "That...are you holding the ID, or..."
"Take it."
Li Xuewu smiled and said: "I will move here sooner or later, and it will save me trouble."
Gu Ning knew that Li Xuewu was teasing her on purpose, but this time she did not hide. Instead, she smiled at Li Xuewu and said, "Sister Zhou, do you want to get some of the pak choi with plastic buckles for your godmother?"
"That's better"
Li Xuewu nodded and said with certainty: "It seems that you will be the one to praise me from now on, hey~"
Seeing Li Xuewu pretending to sigh, Gu Ning looked at Li Xuewu funny, then turned around and entered the courtyard while carrying her bag.
Li Xuewu looked at the closed door and smiled, then started the car and went to the unit.
Li Xuewu naturally noticed the change in Gu Ning's attitude. In his opinion, this was caused by the change in identity.
The two became husband and wife from today on, in a legal sense, so when Li Xuewu looked at Gu Ning, and Gu Ning looked at Li Xuewu, he felt that many things had changed.
This is why Ji Yuxiu wanted to ask when she met Li Xuewu and the others at the door.
This feeling must be wonderful, as you can see from the smiles on the faces of Gu Ning and Li Xuewu.
"What's the happy news? Director Li"
Lao Zhang from the maintenance workshop saw Li Xuewu driving in the Willis again, and couldn't help but ask a question when he saw the smile on Li Xuewu's face.
"Can't you laugh without a happy event?"
Li Xuewu threw a box of cigarettes to Lao Zhang and said with a smile: "Are you happy to see you?"
"Haha, I'm very happy to see you."
Lao Zhang waved the cigarette in his hand, and then threw it to the apprentices and workers watching behind him.
The crowd became excited again, fighting and grabbing the box at the front door.
Lao Zhang walked to Li Xuewu's car, looked at it, and asked, "Is there something wrong with the car?"
"No, check it for me"
Li Xuewu took out his cigarette case again, gave one to Lao Zhang, and lit it for him.
After he lit one himself, he smoked a cigarette, knocked on the lid of the machine, and said, "It's been half a year, and I'm afraid it will suddenly die and be thrown on the road again."
"If we all use the car like you, there won't be so many serious problems."
While Lao Zhang opened the front machine cover, he smiled at Li Xuewu and said, "Come on, go ahead and do your work. I have new parts for modification here, and I will replace any ones that don't work for you."
Li Xuewu smiled and nodded at Lao Zhang and warned: "Old rules."
"clear"
Lao Zhang knew that Li Xuewu was talking about the cost of labor and parts. Li Xuewu would not take advantage of the factory every time he repaired a car. This was an old rule.
After Li Xuewu left the workshop, the apprentices who had been grabbing cigarettes gathered around him again.
A young man squeezed in front of the master. Seeing the master inspecting the vehicle, he couldn't help but ask: "Master, what is Deputy Director Li's background? Why does he have a car?"
Lao Zhang raised his head, looked at his apprentice, and pointed to the screwdriver on the ground.
The young man immediately knelt down and picked up the screwdriver and handed it to the master.
But when the master waved his hand, the screwdriver turned over in the master's hand, and the blade was held in the master's hand, and then he felt that his head had been "cracked".
"Hiss~"
The young man was hit by Lao Zhang and hissed. It wasn't painful, but it was sudden.
Before the young apprentice could ask, Lao Zhang used the end of the wooden handle to knock on the car plate and the number printed on the inside of the car cover.
When the apprentices who were watching saw it clearly, they all fell silent.
Lao Zhang didn't explain anything to his apprentices. They are no longer children. What can and cannot be said? There is no need for a master to teach them, right?
This car has an ordinary brand, but there is a special logo on the inside. What else could it be?
Lao Zhang discovered it when he helped Li Xuewu pack up the car for the first time. The difference was that the car brand had not been changed at that time.
Therefore, Lao Zhang was very polite to Li Xuewu and especially admired Li Xuewu's low-key character.
In the steel rolling mill, some people just can't tell the difference between high and low, so you should be cautious in your words and deeds.
I think some people can't tell the difference between high and low, and Yang Yuansong, but this time it's in a derogatory sense.
I looked at the study notices issued by Li Huaide in the logistics, dispatching and security departments, and then looked at the study notices issued by the committee, and compared the two to see the learning feedback from these three departments.
Yang Yuansong just wants to grab Li Huaide by the collar and ask him what he wants to do. Is it because he didn't become the executive deputy and wants to pry him into becoming secretary in one step?
However, he has also figured out Li Huaide's purpose in the past few days, which is to force him to express his stance.
Either support him, Li Huaide, to rise to power, or allow him, Li Huaide, to do things, achieve results, and rise to power in a roundabout way.
Otherwise, Li Huaide will make small moves for Yang Yuansong in the work of the committee and make trouble for him.
Yang Yuansong was not interested in Li Huaide's evil methods. He was not afraid of what Li Huaide could do. He was afraid that Li Huaide would use the wind outside to blow up the steel rolling mill.
When it starts to vibrate, he will be unable to control it, which will be a big trouble.
The struggle between Li Huaide and Yang Fengshan was something Yang Yuansong was happy to see, and he was the one who separated it.
Of course, he was not optimistic that Li Huaide could defeat Yang Fengshan. This was a division of strength and weakness created by himself.
But now he couldn't sit back and watch Li Huaide continue to mess around, otherwise if the city knew about it, the higher-ups might doubt his control.
Although he is not optimistic about Li Huaide, now he has to express his support for Li Huaide, and the balance cannot be tilted too much.
As long as the struggle between two people is benign and within his control.
After figuring it out, Yang Yuansong picked up the phone and called Gu Weijie.
Deng Zhiwang and Jing Yunong were newcomers, but because Yang Fengshan entrusted them with two major projects, they naturally gained their support.
Coupled with Nie Chenglin, who was originally related to the factory director, Yang Fengshan definitely won when Xue Zhifu did not quit and Xiong Benzheng pretended to be dead.
After receiving the feedback from the Publicity Department, Li Huaide squinted his eyes and knocked on the table, wanting to call Li Xuewu, but he still held back.
The security department was not needed for this operation for the time being, so Yang Yuansong was afraid of Li Xuewu's involvement.
So Li Huaide thought about it and picked up the phone and called Zhang Guoqi, the person who made the reservation.
Zhang Guoqi, the director of the Logistics Department, is a veteran. He has been a department-level cadre for many years. He is also the department in charge of the largest logistics system and has a strong say.
After hearing the leader's instructions, I felt like swallowing a fly.
Just like a leader, there is always someone who has to step forward and someone who has to make contributions, but Zhang Guoqi is not a person who makes selfless contributions. He prefers to sit back and enjoy the results.
But now that the leaders have named him, how can he escape?
Looking at the security building again, he really wanted to exchange the trust of the leader with Li Xuewu.
What an honor!
Li Xuewu was busy in the office before lunch time when he heard a big news.
"Director"
Sha Qizhi walked through the door and came to Li Xuewu's side and said softly: "I just heard that Director Zhang and Deputy Director Jing had a quarrel."
"Yeah"
Li Xuewu raised his eyebrows and raised his head to look at Sha Qizhi, while he sat back on the chair and waited for Sha Qizhi to continue.
Sha Qizhi bowed his body slightly and said softly: "Because of the preparations for the establishment of the joint enterprise, Deputy Director Jing is planning to dismantle the labor insurance factory and tool factory in the logistics department to establish a cooperative factory."
Li Xuewu nodded, it's nothing. Those two factories are auxiliary factories under the steel rolling mill, and they exist as a support force.
Sha Qizhi raised his eyebrows and continued to explain: "Because the two factories will be moved away after the dismantling, Deputy Director Jing reduced the financial budget of the logistics department as a whole, and it seems that some personnel will be left behind."
Li Xuewu narrowed his eyes. This kind of inter-departmental adjustment work was the most troublesome. When the Armed Forces Ministry was merged, Li Xuewu was also cautious and cautious. It was not until Gu Weijie compromised that he recognized this department.
Financial, human resources, etc., no matter how hard you look, you will find trouble. It seems that Zhang Guoqi is going to be the vanguard.
"Director Zhang said that the financial debt owed to the border office has not been paid, and now the budget and personnel have to be cut, and the logistics office cannot support it."
"Deputy Factory Director Jing said that this is a matter of compliance with regulations. The two factories should proceed lightly, optimize their structures, and not set a bad example for cooperating enterprises."
Sha Qizhi said with some humor: "The two of them had different opinions, and they had a huge quarrel on the third floor. In the end, Director Zhang said that the joint enterprise was a chicken that couldn't lay eggs in the hands of Deputy Director Jing, and he also said to come over and pull it.
The project in charge of the biased Deputy Director Deng is called Pixiu. He only sees money but no progress in the project."
“It’s so lively”
Li Xuewu squinted his eyes, without any smile on his face. He paused and asked, "The leader didn't show up?"
"Where can I show up?"
Sha Qizhi curled his lips and said: "The other leaders seemed unable to hear. It was Director Xu who saw Director Zhang slamming the table and persuaded him to leave."
Li Xuewu nodded. Sure enough, it was Lao Xu who came out to be the peacemaker. Director Yang must have heard it.
You really know how to find a good time. Tomorrow, the leaders from above will come to inspect. Today, the logistics department took this opportunity to cause trouble.
If the secretary doesn't care and the factory director doesn't come forward, if the leaders of these two projects can't give a reasonable explanation, then Zhang Guoqi may really become a murderous pawn.
Even if an explanation is given, Zhang Guoqi is probably fine. After all, what they are arguing about is work-related matters, and he is a veteran, so his doubts are justifiable.
Hehe, Li Huaide is really cruel. If you don't let me be proud, I will smash the big plate.
Li Xuewu rubbed his chin and squinted his eyes, thinking, these days, he has been saying that Li Huaide is not an honest and timid person.
Sure enough, he gave Director Yang a blow at the critical moment.
He could also imagine why Zhang Guoqi was chosen as the pawn across the river. He had qualifications, ability, and the right department.
The other reason is that Bi Yuding has been pretending to be dead and useless with Li Huaide. The former Ma Zai Wang Jingzhang has not shown his face to Li Huaide since he changed his family.
Lao Wang is now very proud. With the support of Jing Yunong, he has obtained the capital budget and is vigorously carrying out health and service reforms in the factory.
Li Xuewu can indeed see the results. The environment is cleaner and there are more fake smiles in service positions.
But this is just a gust of wind. If it lasts for a month, Wang Jingzhang is considered to have urinary properties.
But now Wang Jingzhang will not play with Li Huaide, let alone serve as Li Huaide's back stabber Jing Yunong.
Apart from these few, the only ones who can take action are Li Xuewu and Zhang Guoqi.
In addition to Zhang Guoqi being a counterpart to Li Xuewu and other reasons, it may be that Li Huaide was afraid that Li Xuewu would go too far and would use a knife or a gun if he couldn't stand it.
So Li Xuewu thought that he should be the first to be eliminated, and then he was placed behind Zhang Guoqi as a candidate.
"Hiss~"
Thinking of this, Li Xuewu raised his eyebrows, looked at the work that was already done on his hands, pointed at Sha Qizhi, and said: "Well, Qizhi, did the branch let me go to the textile factory to have a look?
What’s the security situation?”
Sha Qizhi looked at Li Xuewu and instantly understood what the leader meant. He nodded and said, "I'll call Jiankun right now to prepare a car."
"Well, go ahead"
Li Xuewu nodded, twisted the pen in his hand and began to pack the documents on the table.
After Sha Qizhi informed Han Jiankun, he walked into the room again and asked, "It's time for dinner now. Let's go to the brigade and then go to the textile factory in the afternoon?"
"No"
Li Xuewu shook the pen in his hand, smiled at Sha Qizhi and said, "Let's go to the textile factory to eat. The food there is better than the one in the brigade."
Sha Qizhi smiled. At the last establishment ceremony of the security brigade, the director and the security director of the textile factory got along very well.
He still remembered that the stooge who first bid for a car was the security director of the textile factory.
However, the director called him a donkey puller, which is another name for a nanny.
The two joked for a while and left the rolling mill before getting off work at noon.
Yu Decai naturally saw Li Xuewu leaving with the sandbox, but this was normal. If something happened at the branch, Li Xuewu would not eat in the cafeteria.
He actually remembered what Sha Qizhi had just said to him, and couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.
In the afternoon, Yu Decai had just eaten and returned to the office to take a rest. Unexpectedly, he received a call from the logistics director Zhang.
Zhang Guoqi asked on the phone why Li Xuewu was not there. When Yu Decai said that Li Xuewu had gone out, he asked for the phone number of the security brigade.
Of course Yu Decai would give it to him, it was a serious matter, but he was sure that Zhang Guoqi would not be able to find Li Xuewu today.
If he really wanted to hide, Zhang Guoqi didn't have the ability to find Li Xuewu.
Throughout the afternoon, Zhang Guoqi made two calls to the General Office, Secretary Yang once and Deputy Secretary Gu once, but none of them found Li Xuewu until after get off work.
Even the jeep that Li Xuewu kept in the maintenance workshop was sent to Li Xuewu's home by Yu Decai's arrangement.
Li Xuewu also got off work from the inspection patrol of the security brigade at the right time.
"Director, what are our arrangements for tomorrow?"
Sha Qizhi knew that Li Xuewu was deliberately avoiding those troubles, and he was going to Steel City on Thursday, so he confirmed the itinerary with Li Xuewu before getting off the bus.
Li Xuewu held the car door and thought for a while, then said: "In the morning, I will go to the Public Security Brigade, and then to the No. 1 Prison. In the afternoon, the leaders should have seen it. Let's go back to the factory for a meeting in the afternoon."
Sha Qizhi smiled and nodded, and then said goodbye to Li Xuewu.
Li Xuewu entered the courtyard with a smile. When he saw Master Dou coming out of the courtyard, he stopped and chatted for a few words.
When he entered the front yard, he was called over by his mother who was lighting a fire for cooking.
"Bring it"
"What?"
Li Xuewu looked at his mother's outstretched hand and smiled, then put his handbag on it.
Liu Yin slapped Li Xuewu's handbag angrily, and then asked: "Are you pretending to be confused with me? Where is your marriage certificate?"
"Oh, it's at Gu Ning's place"
Li Xuewu saw that his mother was about to stare, so he quickly smiled and said: "What's new about that thing? It's the same as my elder brother's, except that the photo is of me and Gu Ning."
"That's different too"
Liu Yin felt relieved when she saw what Li Xuewu had said. Finally, nothing unexpected happened.
She didn't necessarily want to see the piece of paper, she wanted to make sure whether Li Xuewu had received the certificate.
Now since Li Xuewu said it, he must have received it. Even if Li Xuewu is skinny, he will not lie randomly.
There is still a difference between Banggeng and the naughty child in the backyard. Banggeng is not as naughty as Li Xuewu was when he was a child, nor is he as naughty as Li Xuewu was when he was a child. At least after being beaten, Banggeng doesn't cry at his age.
Liu Yin's ears were still ringing with the sound of the child's cries and howls. It was a lingering sound that lasted for three days.
Li Xuewu told his mother that he was going to see Director Wang in the evening, and asked if he would pick up Gu Ning later and asked Gu Ning to bring her the marriage certificate and show it to her.
Liu Yin frightened Li Xuewu and slapped him in the face, and sent him to the backyard to wash his face.
The laughter between mother and son made Li Shu, who was playing in the yard with his wife, watch the fun. Now she saw her father being beaten and giggled.
Li Xuewu came over and gave his daughter a slap in the face, causing Li Shu to chase Li Xuewu's footsteps and run into the backyard a few times.
After she could no longer stand still and could only squat down, she pointed to the old lady's father who had entered the third door and babbling a few words.
The old lady looked at Li Shu who complained in a funny way, and said to Liu Yin: "This little devil knows how to complain."
Seeing that his wife ignored him, Li Shu tried to stand up and ran back again.
Now she doesn't have to walk if she can run, so she has calculated the distance to her wife and will not run outside the radius she can bear.
Liu Yin stood at the door and smiled at the old lady: "We are still at home. If he really lives with his father, let's see who he can complain to."
After hearing this, the old lady took Li Shu into her arms and kissed her.
After Li Shu was brought back by Li Xuewu, the old lady has been taking care of her, even though she agreed to let Li Xuewu live with his parents.
But the sweetheart suddenly wanted to leave, and the old lady couldn't bear it.
As people get older, they seem to become bastards. They are always inseparable from their grandchildren, no matter how rare they seem to be.
Liu Yin looked at the old lady's attitude and suggested: "Why don't you tell Xuewu and wait until Li Shu is older before carrying her over?"
"No matter how reluctant I am to let go of her, how long can I keep her?"
The old lady was teasing Li Shu, but she was telling Liu Yin that if she was young, she could go with Xiao Ning, but if she was older, she would stop kissing Xiao Ning.
Liu Yin naturally understood this truth, but she could also see the reluctance in the old lady's eyes.
Although this little guy is naughty, he is the pistachio of the old lady. He laughs and laughs every day and brings a lot of vitality to the old lady.
"Then you can take care of me during the day, and let them take you back after get off work at night."
Liu Yin turned around and filled some firewood into the stove pit with a fire stick. After cleaning up, she turned around and looked at the silent old lady and continued: "Anyway, they have to go to work during the day and no one takes care of their children."
The old lady hugged Li Shu, helped the little guy straighten his clothes, and asked hesitantly: "Is it convenient to go back and forth?"
“What’s the inconvenience?”
Liu Yin knew that the old lady was moved, so she followed the old lady's wishes and continued: "Xuewu has a car to go to and from get off work every day, and there are cars on the left and right. Just go through here, pick up the child, and send it over in the morning."
.
“Forget it”
The old lady thought for a while, then shook her head and said: "The child is too troubled and can't help it. Let him find someone to take care of him."
"Why don't you follow me in the evening? I'll have breakfast with you in the morning and come back if you want."
Liu Yin grabbed a piece from the steamed bun, walked over and stuffed it into her eldest granddaughter's hand.
Seeing how happy she was eating, Li Shu hugged her grandma and took a bite.
Now the big devil has learned how to clap his hands and ask for food, and he can even use this as a condition for coquettishness and complaint.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! "This little clever"
Liu Yin actually liked this child very much, but the child had to live with his parents after all. If it was Gu Ning's child, forget it, no matter how he raised it, it would still be his biological child.
The key is Li Shu's life experience. We can only let the child have more contact with Gu Ning, otherwise we will be irresponsible to the child.
If the old lady came to take care of the children, Li Xuewu would naturally be happy to do so. He had already asked the old lady if he would like to live in the villa.
It was the old lady who refused because she was afraid that she would influence the young couple.
Another thing is that the old lady is used to living in a bungalow, so she is not used to living in a building all of a sudden.
But looking at the little man in front of her, she was really reluctant to let go. After hearing what Liu Yin said, she felt a little moved.
Liu Yin squatted in front of her granddaughter to support her, and let Li Shu hold the steamed bun in her hand and eat it with her mouth.
"It's only for a year and a half. When the eldest daughter-in-law gives birth, you still have to come back."
"Let's talk about it"
The old lady was obviously moved by her daughter-in-law, but she was smiling but still not sure.
Liu Yin has lived with the old lady for half her life, and she doesn't understand what the old lady means.
Li Xuewu had just gotten married, and everyone in his family was a little worried. Liu Yin also thought of letting the old lady live with him for a while just for this reason.
Sometimes newlyweds are prone to quarrels, but if there are elders around, they can just make peace with each other.
I'm afraid that if the two of them quarreled, there would be no elders to suppress them, and they would break up to save face.
While the two were talking, Li Xuewu had already washed up and walked over from the backyard.
Liu Yin stood up, helped her son adjust his collar, and warned: "Tell your godmother to come and sit down when you have time. The two of them don't go out to hang out on Sundays, so they just stay at home."
"knew"
Li Xuewu knelt down, looked at his daughter, and asked, "What are you eating? Give Dad a bite."
Li Shu looked at the bad father who had just beaten her, put the little hand holding the bun behind her buttocks, then looked at the bad father with a blank expression and shook her head.
"Hey! You little heartless one!"
Li Xuewu made a grimace and threatened his daughter to grab it, which made Li Shu move around behind the old lady with her little legs.
"Stop teasing her, or she will choke again."
Liu Yin stopped her son for a moment, and then told him to leave quickly before it's too late.
Li Xuewu and his daughter hiding behind the old lady were chattering, making Li Shu laugh. Then she got up and left amidst her mother's urging.
Li Xuewu also thought about the child. If this trip to Steel City fails to solve all the problems, then Zhou Yamei and her son will have to live here for a while, and the child will be temporarily taken care of by Zhou Yamei.
If the problem in Steel City is solved this time, when Zhou Yamei and his son return to Steel City, he will have to arrange for someone to go to the villa to help him take care of the children.
But there was still time, so he was not in a hurry. He only talked to Gu Ning about his family situation on the way, but not about his children.
Gu Ning's performance on the child issue was beyond Li Xuewu's expectations, so he was not prepared to put too much pressure on Gu Ning.
Do whatever you can do first. It is your own decision to raise your child, and your parents have already helped him enough.
Furthermore, the eldest brother is about to have a child, and the old lady will not be able to take care of two children at that time, and she will not be tired.
While he was talking to Gu Ning and thinking about things, the car had already arrived at the small courtyard of his godmother's house.
"This is Xiao Ning, right?"
Hearing the movement of the car, Wang Shuhua had already come out of the kitchen to greet them. When she saw Li Xuewu and the others entering the courtyard, she greeted them with a smile.
Li Xuewu carried a piece of meat placed on the back seat and a bag of cabbage prepared by Gu Ning. He followed Gu Ning into the courtyard and introduced them to the two of them.
"Godmother, this is Gu Ning"
"Hehe, okay, okay"
Wang Shuhua also liked Gu Ning very much. She had a three-dimensional bone structure and wore a milky white shirt, which made her look more gentle and dignified.
No makeup was applied on her face, which was as warm as jade, but it looked very white, as white as jade.
I had heard Li Xuewu talk about Gu Ning's appearance a long time ago, but when I saw Gu Ning today, I knew that I really wanted my godson to marry a beautiful woman.
She has even the most picky beauty tips, and you can see a different temperament from every angle.
Wang Shuhua knew some about facial features, but she didn't say it openly.
Looking at Gu Ning's decent hairstyle, clear jawline, dignified and elegant beauty with melancholy temperament, which is very characteristic of the times and the beauty of the new era, it is no wonder that she can be fascinated by the bad boy Li Xuewu.
With flawless white skin, a pair of bright big eyes, and the wet look in his eyes like a deer, who could not be moved after seeing it?
From this point of view, when I met Liu Yin last time, I heard her praise this second daughter-in-law, but I knew that she had not chosen her.
"Dad, have some drinks tonight"
Li Xuewu saw Zheng Shusen coming out of the house and raised his hand to indicate the wine bottle, meat and vegetables in his hand.
Zheng Shusen smiled and greeted the two of them. After listening to Li Xuewu's introduction, he looked at Gu Ning and nodded with a smile.
Wang Shuhua took Gu Ning's hand and talked intimately, leading her into the house, while Li Xuewu sent the things in his hands to the kitchen.
When he returned to the house, he saw his godmother looking for dried fruits and candies for Gu Ning. He couldn't help but smile and said, "Mom, it's time to eat soon."
Wang Shuhua also smiled and nodded, brought a handful of peanuts and melon seeds, and placed them on the coffee table in front of Gu Ning.
"Sit down for a while. It's my first time at my godmother's house, but don't be formal."
"yes"
Gu Ning was a little overwhelmed by Wang Shuhua's enthusiasm and looked at Li Xuewu frequently, but the bad guy just sat on the other side of the sofa.
Li Xuewu took the initiative to make tea with the tea set on the coffee table and started chatting with Zheng Shusen.
Wang Shuhua held down Gu Ning, who was about to get up to help, and then went out to work in the kitchen. She had already received a call from Li Xuewu and made an appointment to come over today.
Moreover, she also knew that today was the day when Li Xuewu and the two received their certificates, so she had to prepare a table of good food to entertain them.
Gu Ning saw Li Xuewu chatting with Uncle Zheng and looked at the environment in the room with some restraint.
Xu Zheng Shusen and his wife lived there. The furnishings in the house looked very clean and tidy, and the furniture looked like ordinary cadres' homes.
Only the cabinet of books made the room feel very cultural.
While Li Xuewu was chatting with his godfather, he placed a cup of tea in front of Gu Ning and then ignored her.
There will be more situations like this in the future, so she must be exposed to people and things.
Furthermore, Li Xuewu did not point to Gu Ning's versatility. How much she could adapt to it all depended on her own wishes and growth.
Zheng Shusen did not talk about work with Li Xuewu, but only asked about Li Xuewu's recent life and preparations for marriage.
Li Xuewu naturally trusted Zheng Shusen and took the initiative to exchange some interesting things about his life and work.
Gu Ning was very envious when she saw Li Xuewu talking eloquently. He naturally had the ability to talk to anyone, but she seemed a bit silent around him.
Holding the tea cup in hand and taking a sip, I felt that I felt more secure with such a considerate person beside me.
People always want to pursue perfection, but who is perfect?
Wang Shuhua had been busy since she got off work. When Li Xuewu and the others arrived, they had not finished their work yet and had prepared six dishes for Li Xuewu and the others.
Li Xuewu also opened a bottle of Xifeng, his godmother and Gu Ning drank a little, and Li Xuewu and Zheng Shusen drank the rest.
In fact, it wasn't much. The two of them were chatting and drinking.
Because of her godmother's frequent inquiries, Gu Ning never felt left out, and she smiled and chatted with her godmother.
Zheng Shusen didn't like to drink for a long time, and he didn't like to sit at the table and drink slowly, so the two of them got down from the table after they could drink.
Gu Ning took the initiative to help clean up Wang Shuhua this time and did not refuse. During this period, she also praised Gu Ning again and again.
It wasn't until Li Xuewu and Zheng Shusen had another cup of tea that they were allowed to leave.
“Don’t you really like this?”
Li Xuewu looked at Gu Ning beside him, he seemed a little tired.
"No"
Gu Ning sat back on the seat, looked forward, thought for a while, and then said, "I'm not used to it."
"What about before?"
Li Xuewu no longer looked at Gu Ning, but concentrated on driving while asking about Gu Ning's past.
"Before...there were very few relatives coming to my home."
Gu Ning's voice was a little slow and lazy, and the wind blowing in from both sides of the car blew into Li Xuewu's ears.
"My parents rarely go out to socialize, and even if they do, I rarely go."
"Don't you feel lonely?"
Li Xuewu held a cigarette in his mouth, but did not light it. Instead, he continued to ask: "I mean, people have to live in a group after all, and they have to socialize and have a life."
"Maybe"
Gu Ning was also confused, as if the life in front of her was not her own. She looked at the night flashing outside the car and said softly: "Maybe I enjoy loneliness."
"Haha, is it a kind of spiritual practice?"
Li Xuewu chuckled and turned to look at Gu Ning. This was the first time he saw Gu Ning in this state. Could it be because he was drunk?
"I don't believe in Buddhism, nor do I believe in Taoism"
Gu Ning looked at Li Xuewu and emphasized: "Where did you get the practice from?"
“Practice does not depend on belief”
The cigarette in Li Xuewu's mouth was never lit. He was just having fun. Holding the cigarette in his hand, he explained to Gu Ning: "Some people compare life to a kind of spiritual practice, and loneliness is one of them."
Gu Ning was very curious about this statement and looked at Li Xuewu, waiting for him to continue.
Li Xuewu also saw the meaning in Gu Ning's eyes, smiled, and continued to explain: "Life has never left loneliness and existed independently. Whether it is birth, growth, love, or even success and failure, it is just like a shadow."
.
"No one can escape loneliness"
Li Xuewu raised the cigarette in his hand and said emphatically: "If you are afraid of being alone, you will rush into the excitement and lose yourself. If you get used to following what others say, you will lose your own thoughts and wrong yourself. You will join the group, but you will also lose it."
The true self”.
"so"
Gu Ning looked at Li Xuewu and asked, "Is this considered an advantage?"
"Raise a glass to the bright moon and make three people in front of each other?"
Li Xuewu raised his eyebrows with a smile, and then said semi-seriously: "Actually, the loneliest time for a person is not when she is walking alone, but when she is standing in the crowd without seeing a smiling face.
Without any care, I don’t know where to go.”
Gu Ning looked at Li Xuewu blankly, as if Li Xuewu had explained everything clearly, but everything seemed to be blurry.
The hesitation and confusion of these years suddenly became vain and simple in Li Xuewu's words.
"That……"
"Actually, you are already changing."
Li Xuewu replied directly without Gu Ning's words: "When you are no longer afraid of loneliness, when you can see the smiling faces of people around you, when you can feel my warmth."
Gu Ning looked down at the big hand holding her hand, which was gentle, strong and warm.
This...is this love?
Li Xuewu used his left hand to hold the direction, and used his right hand to hold Gu Ning's hand who was no longer dodging him.
The two of them didn't say anything else along the way, but Gu Ning, who was sitting in the passenger seat, felt that Li Xuewu said everything.
The lights of the jeep are not very bright, but they can illuminate the way forward. Gu Ning has never been so eager to experience life as now.
The anxiety and confusion before receiving the certificate, as well as the myriad of thoughts on the day of receiving the certificate, were all sublimated at this moment. Gu Ning even wanted to turn this moment into eternity.
Li Xuewu squeezed Gu Ning's hand gently, indicating that he felt her emotions, and Gu Ning couldn't help but look at Li Xuewu and smile.
They didn't drink much wine tonight, but the drunken love made both of them a little intoxicated.

"Just came back?"
"Well, it's not too late, right?"
Li Xuewu turned sideways slightly and looked down at his watch by the light in the concierge. It was only eight o'clock.
Yuyu looked at Li Xuewu and said hesitantly: "I've been waiting for you to come."
"Yeah"
Li Xuewu nodded. Seeing that Yuyu seemed to have something to say, he gestured to the backyard and said, "Have a cup of tea?"
After saying that, without waiting for the rain to reply, he twisted his neck and walked towards the hanging flower door.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Yuyu looked at Li Xuewu's back and followed him.
This is really not the place to talk at the door, and now that it is night, it is even more tempting to gossip in the courtyard.
The boy on duty at the concierge recruited a few young people to play cards. It was bustling at the moment, and when they saw Li Xuewu entering the courtyard, they didn't pay attention.
Even though Rainwater followed him into the courtyard, no one thought it was strange. They all knew the relationship between Li Xuewu and Shazhu, and Rainwater had a good relationship with the reverse house.
Because of this, Yuyu followed Li Xuewu all the way to the backyard, saying hello to the neighbors who came out on the way.
Li Xuewu seemed very casual, only Yu Yu was a little silent.
He has a cheerful personality, but he looks a bit different like this.
Li Xuewu changed into his slippers and entered the house. He first took off the pistol from his waist, walked to the tea cabinet and put it away casually, picked up two teacups and made tea.
When he turned around and saw Yu Yu still standing, he smiled and asked, "What's wrong? Are you pretending not to be familiar with me?"
Yuyu twisted his mouth, glanced at Li Xuewu, took the tea and sat on the sofa.
"I'm here to apologize to you, I'm sorry..."
"Yeah"
Li Xuewu seemed to have heard a common sentence, nodded, and said nonchalantly: "I accept it."
Yu Yu looked at Li Xuewu sitting on the sofa holding a tea cup, as if he had punched the cotton with all his strength.
She thought about it for a long time yesterday, and today she heard the news about Li Xuewu getting the certificate. She knew that if she wanted to apologize, it was best to come over today to say sorry.
"how?"
Li Xuewu looked at the stunned rain and asked funnyly: "It's too ceremonial? Do you want to hand me a letter of apology?"
Yu Yu knew that Li Xuewu was joking with her, but she still looked at Li Xuewu guiltily and said, "I'm sorry, I have no intention of helping her do anything to hurt you."
"Know"
Li Xuewu nodded and said: "So I don't care, so there is no need for any psychological burden."
Yu Yu thought that she would feel better if she formally apologized to Li Xuewu, but for some reason, Li Xuewu forgave herself so easily, which made her feel less relaxed.
Looking at the heavy rain, Li Xuewu took a sip of tea and said, "Are my things confusing you? Or maybe there are some things that make you feel burdened."
"without……"
Yu Yu was eager to deny it, but when he raised his head, he saw Li Xuewu leaning on the sofa with a teacup in his hand, without looking at him.
"Contradictory people do contradictory things and get contradictory results. People who see them will naturally feel confused."
Li Xuewu's voice was a little hollow, but his words were also somewhat real. From Yu Yu's point of view, this was Li Xuewu explaining his own emotional life.
"So, those of yours..."
Yuyu didn't know how to bring it up, but now they were the only two in the room, and she also wanted to know why Li Xuewu would do this.
"Will you sort out your love life? Including...them?"
"Who?"
Li Xuewu sat up with a smile, put the tea cup in his hand on the coffee table, shook his head slightly when Yu Yu looked at him with wide eyes, and said: "In my emotional world..."
