Jiujiu replied, "Women are all very petty. Don't you know that, President He?"
She didn't even hold a grudge against her for scolding her today. Did she really think that she was a meek person?
He glanced sideways at Jiujiu. "Why? Do you need me to apologize to you?"
Jiujiu stopped in her tracks and looked at He. "I think you really need to apologize to me for this."
"I apologize to you for what you did. I think I need to make things clear to you, Miss Wang. Although I did ask for your help, don't forget that you were the one who begged me first."
"I didn't forget." Jiujiu placed her hand on He's arm again. As she followed He into the house, she said, "I think I need to make things clear. Firstly, I wasn't in charge of this document. I was the one who helped you pass it. I did it out of kindness. The woman who asked me to pass the document has a crush on you, President He. She was the one who schemed against me.
I think this is all because of you, President He. I was completely unjustly implicated. "
"That's new." He said, "Firstly, you were the one who volunteered to pass the document, so you deserved to be schemed against. Secondly, her liking me has nothing to do with me.
At the end of the day, you were the one who got schemed against because you weren't careful. Now you're pushing the blame to me. Miss Wang, you're in the wrong. "
Jiujiu wanted to refute, but because they were at the door, she could only smile sweetly and say, "President He, let's wait and see."
He looked at Jiujiu affectionately. "Let's wait and see."
Clearly, the two of them looked like a couple in love, but the words they said were at odds with each other.
He pushed the door open and walked straight to the middle-aged couple sitting on the sofa.
He introduced them to Jiujiu gently. "This is my father and mother. You can call them uncle and auntie."
Before Jiujiu could open her mouth, He Zhenguo, He Zhenguo, scolded her coldly, "How could you bring any Tom, Dick, or Harry home?"
He Zhenguo did not mention any names, but everyone present knew that the 'Tom, Dick, and Harry' he was referring to was none other than Jiujiu.
Upon hearing her husband's words, He Zhenguo's mother, Cheng Qinghua, tugged at He Zhenguo's arm. She looked at Jiujiu with a face full of remorse and said softly, "Zhenguo."
After Cheng Qinghua finished speaking, she raised her head and smiled gently at Jiujiu. "I'm sorry for making a fool of myself in front of you. You must be Jiujiu. You often tell us about you in front of us."
But in fact, He had only said it once, and what he said was something they didn't like to hear.
They had already found He He a fiancée of equal social status, Mo Chan.
Mo Chan, the eldest daughter of the Mo family, had been a top student in the circle since she was young. After graduating from high school, she studied abroad and was about to graduate and return to China.
Cheng Qinghua had a good relationship with Mo Chan's mother, so she decided to marry Mo Chan to He Zhenguo. Who knew that He Zhenguo would be such a jerk and find a random girl to be his girlfriend? Now, he even brought this girl home.
If it weren't for her years of self-restraint, Cheng Qinghua really wanted to throw Jiujiu out.
However, He Zhenguo was already at odds with He Jiujiu. If she, as a mother, continued to treat Jiujiu like this, with He Jiujiu's temper, she would definitely not return home in the future.
She and He Zhenguo only had one son. It was not worthwhile to push her son out for a stranger like Jiujiu.
What she could do now was to try her best to stabilize He Zhenguo, and then slowly think of a way to separate He Zhenguo from Jiujiu.
Cheng Qinghua's gaze swept across Jiujiu for a moment, then she looked away. She stood up and smiled at Jiujiu. "Jiujiu, can I call you that?"
Cheng Qinghua said, "Jiujiu, can you come to the kitchen with me to wash some fruits?"
Jiujiu turned to look at He Zhenguo.
He Zhenguo raised his hand and patted Jiujiu on the back of Jiujiu's hand, indicating for her to follow Cheng Qinghua.
He Zhenguo knew Cheng Qinghua very well. Although Cheng Qinghua didn't like Jiujiu as much as He Zhenguo, she was afraid that He Zhenguo would be unhappy. She definitely wouldn't do something like teach Jiujiu a lesson at home.
Jiujiu followed Cheng Qinghua to the kitchen.
Cheng Qinghua took out some seasonal fruits from the fridge and washed them in the sink. As she washed them, she asked Jiujiu casually, "Jiujiu, how long have you known my family?"
Jiujiu lowered her head and said the answer that she had discussed with He Zhenguo. "We've known each other for half a year."
"You've known each other for half a year. How long have you been together?"
"We've been together for more than three months." Jiujiu put the washed apricots into the fruit basket. She looked at Cheng Qinghua and said, "Auntie, I know what you want to say, but I really like him. I'm not with him for money. I won't leave him."
Cheng Qinghua didn't even have time to say the lines she had prepared before Jiujiu reprimanded her.
Cheng Qinghua's expression was a little unnatural. She pursed her dry lips and said, "Jiujiu, you're still young. There are some things that you don't understand. It's not that we don't want you to be with him, but the gap between the two of you is too big. There's no way you can be together. Do you understand?"
Jiujiu raised her head and put on an innocent look. "But the gap can be closed by people. Auntie, I know that there's a big gap between us, but I'll work hard and try to close the gap between us."
"Some gaps can be closed by hard work, but some gaps can't be closed by hard work." Cheng Qinghua put the last peach into the fruit basket and said earnestly, "Jiujiu, Auntie knows that you're a good girl, but as your mother, there are some things that I have to say."
Jiujiu's face was a little pale. She looked like a little girl who was frightened by Cheng Qinghua. She said hesitantly, "Go ahead, Auntie."
Cheng Qinghua felt a little satisfied when she felt that Jiujiu was frightened by her. However, she still pretended to be gentle and said, "Auntie doesn't mean anything else. I just think that the gap between the two of you is too big. And you've seen Father's attitude. He won't agree to marry you.
Although the two of you like each other now, a marriage without the blessing of your parents won't be happy. Even if he likes you, he can't completely ignore my and his father's feelings. You two will definitely argue over this matter in the future. Instead of waiting for the relationship to end, it's better to break it off when the relationship is still shallow. What do you think? "
Jiujiu pursed her lips. She lowered her head and said nothing.
