He sat in his seat in a daze, eating and watching the three women drinking with each other.
He could actually drink a little, but he said he couldn't.
Because she had told him very clearly that her brother liked to drink, liked to smoke, and was not a person who liked to smoke and drink.
"Isn't this a double standard?" He was a little angry at that time. He didn't smoke, but he couldn't even drink a little, right?
"What's wrong with the double standard?"
He immediately became listless.
After dinner, he sat on the sofa and looked at a black spot on the opposite wall. It was the only flaw in the house.
Four and He Fang sat next to him, standing at the door from time to time and looking at the main road.
He Fang smiled and said, "Your brother won't be back before five o 'clock. He's busy now."
"Oh." Lao Si was a little disappointed. The longer he waited, the more nervous he became. If he stretched his head out, he would be stabbed. If he shrank his head, he would be stabbed again. He hoped that he would die early so that he wouldn't have to suffer like he was now. "I remember that he rarely went to the office."
How could she not know her brother?
Something?
What business could it be?
"After the New Year, he has been busy working with a mobile phone company in Finland to make GSM mobile phone communications." He Fang waved the phone on the table at Lao Si. "He said that mobile phones will become smaller and smaller in the future. They won't be as bulky as a mobile phone."
"Nokia?" Four took out a small phone from his pocket.
"Can it be used in the South?" He Fang said, "That's a custom-made phone. It can only be used if there's a mobile signal."
"It can be used at the end of last year. I specially went to the business office to get it done." Four turned his phone around and looked at it as if it was his first time using it. "I didn't know it was my brother."
He Fang said, "Don't tell me you didn't know. If I hadn't seen the proposal at home, I wouldn't have known it was him either."
There was an indescribable pride in her words.
Bi Xiangdong was dumbfounded. He would never have guessed that the mobile communications industry, which was inseparable from his daily life, was the property of the Li family!
When the two kids were out of school, Li Lan was unusually happy to see his aunt. He kept circling around her. Only Li Yi had no memory of her aunt.
"You really don't remember Auntie?" Four coaxed with a piece of chocolate in his hand. "Think about it?"
"Auntie, you are so beautiful." Li Yi really couldn't bear to part with the chocolate, so she had to go along with her aunt. Unless there were guests, she would never have the chance to eat chocolate.
"You're such a sweet talker." Four patted his head and handed the chocolate to her.
The sound of a car came from outside. Without guessing, she knew it was Li He.
Four ran out in a panic.
"Why didn't you greet me when you came back?" When Li He saw Four, he was also shocked. In the past, when she wanted to come back, she would always call in advance. He would either pick her up himself or arrange for someone to pick her up.
"Brother," Four looked at Li He, then at Bi Xiangdong who was standing at the door. "Let me introduce you to someone."
"I'm not blind." Li He didn't expect Four to be so bold as to bring Bi Xiangdong home.
"Hello, I …" Bi Xiangdong extended his hand to Li He.
"Hello." Li He didn't shake his hand. He just waved and said, "Come in, don't be so formal."
"Mm." Bi Xiangdong's hand was in the air. He was a little flustered. He only put down his hand awkwardly when Li He walked past him.
"Are you discouraged already? Hurry up and go in. Don't just stand there. "Four poked Bi Xiangdong who was still in a daze.
He Fang passed the teapot to Li He who was sitting on the sofa. She whispered into his ear, "Whether you like it or not, you have to keep up appearances. Otherwise, Four will be in a difficult position."
"Send the child to the study to do his homework." Li He took a sip of tea and put down the teapot. "I know what I'm doing."
His rebirth had affected and changed too many people!
He might still be the person he remembered from his past life, but he didn't know what kind of heart that person had.
If Bi Xiangdong turned out to be the slightest bit different from what he expected, he would not agree to this marriage, even if his Fourth Sister hated him for it.
He Fang smiled and said, "Have a seat. Dinner is about to start. Xiangdong, you should have some too. Don't stand on ceremony."
"No, no, sister-in-law, I don't drink. I don't drink much." Bi Xiangdong glanced at Li He and rejected him decisively.
Li He frowned when he heard this.
Don't drink?
This wasn't the Bi Xiangdong he remembered.
Bi Xiangdong didn't smoke, but he did drink. His addiction to alcohol was stronger than Mo Yichen's.
"Let's eat." Four knew her brother the best. This frown made her panic.
Bi Xiangdong insisted on not drinking. Li He's eyebrows were knitted together.
This meal made him and Lao Si feel dull. Other than the two children making a few noises at the dining table, no one said a word from beginning to end.
It was so quiet that it was a little depressing.
After dinner, Li He took the Dogo for a walk as usual.
Four pinched Bi Xiangdong's waist and scolded him in a low voice, "Why are you still in a daze?"
She even pushed him out of the room.
"What?" Bi Xiangdong was puzzled.
"Are you an idiot?" Four covered her forehead angrily and pointed at Li He's back. "Hurry up and catch up."
There wouldn't be another chance for her brother to get to know Bi Xiangdong.
"Oh, oh." Bi Xiangdong reacted and hurried to catch up with Li He.
He followed them but didn't dare to get too close.
Dong Hao leaned close to Li He and whispered something. Li He turned around and stopped in his tracks.
Bi Xiangdong trembled and walked nervously to Li He.
The two of them walked side by side.
"You're from Wanbei?"
Li He finally spoke.
"Yes." Bi Xiangdong seemed to have nowhere to put his hands. At first, he crossed them in front of his chest, then put them in his trouser pocket. After a few comparisons, he put his hands behind his back. "My parents are farmers. I'm the eldest in the family. I have a younger brother and sister. They're already married."
"That's good." Li He was noncommittal. "How did you guys meet?"
This was the thing he was most curious about.
Bi Xiangdong scratched his head and said, "After I graduated, I was at the affiliated hospital in the provincial capital. I always felt excluded in my work unit. One day, I saw a recruitment advertisement from the petrochemical hospital. They said that those who graduated with a doctorate could get a monthly salary of 10,000 yuan. Then, I impulsively resigned and went to Yuedong."
"Oh." Li He was surprised for a moment.
'That works?'
