Mother Ding asked again, "What kind of business do you do?" Li Rui answered honestly, "Dried fruits and grains." Mother Ding frowned and said, "How much money do you make?" Li Rui saw that she was talking to him so calmly for once, so he smiled and said, "It's okay, the sales have been good." He looked at her carefully and saw that she was in her fifties. Although she took good care of herself, her face was full of wrinkles and he could see Ding Yijing's shadow in her eyes. He guessed that she must have been a beauty when she was young. He thought again, if he hadn't quarreled with Ding Yijing that year and had continued to be with her and married her, wouldn't this woman be his mother-in-law?
Unfortunately, there were no ifs in this world. Fortunately, there were no ifs!
Mother Ding asked again, "Are you married or not?" Li Rui said, "Yes, but I'm divorced, just like Jing Jing." Mother Ding hesitated and said, "Really? Is there such a coincidence? "Li Rui said," If I lie to you, I'll die a horrible death. "Mother Ding said," Then do you plan to marry Jing Jing? " Li Rui was very embarrassed. Without Ding Yijing's help, it was really hard to take this old woman's trick. He braced himself and said, "Do … plan …" Mother Ding scolded, "Bastard, if you plan to, why didn't you say so just now? Are you trying to make me angry? "Li Rui quickly said," But Jing Jing … she doesn't seem to agree. "Mother Ding scolded," Nonsense! If she doesn't plan to marry you, why would she hug you? Do you think my daughter is so cheap? You don't have to worry about her, I'll talk to her. You have to give me a definite answer. "Li Rui smiled and nodded.
Mother Ding said earnestly, "Li Rui, don't blame me for losing my temper with you. You have to know that mothers think too much. If I don't think about my daughter's happiness, who else would I think about? You have to understand me …" Li Rui nodded like a chick eating rice and said, "I understand, I understand, I understand very well. I'm not angry with you, I hope you won't lower yourself to my level." Mother Ding nodded her head in satisfaction and said, "It's late today, so I won't invite you up to sit. You can come over another day. Alright, you can go now. "Li Rui smiled and nodded. After she walked away, he turned around and drove away.
Mrs. Ding watched as he drove out of the neighborhood. She didn't look away until the car was out of sight. She looked up at her house upstairs and sighed. She shook her head and walked to the door with heavy steps.
After Li Rui drove out of Ding Yijing's neighborhood, he didn't go home. Instead, he went straight to Yao Xuefei's house. He had stood her up last night and made an appointment with her tonight. If he didn't go with her tonight, he would feel bad. He was still thinking about what had happened just now. Until now, he still didn't understand why Ding Yijing's mother changed her attitude toward him. In addition, he was also a little worried that she would force him to marry Ding Yijing. In the car, he said to himself, "Jing Jing probably won't agree. She said a long time ago that even if she divorced, she wouldn't marry him. He hoped that her attitude hadn't changed. If not, I'll be in trouble. "
He thought and worried all the way. By the time he arrived at Yao Xuefei's house, it was already ten o 'clock. Yao Xuefei opened the door for him in her pink pajamas. Without saying anything, she covered her mouth and yawned. She said coquettishly, "Honey, I thought you weren't coming." Li Rui smiled and said, "How could I not come? The Municipal Party Committee is holding a plenary meeting today. There's a big dinner party at the Qingyang Hotel tonight. I had to entertain the Song Shuji, so I was delayed … Darling, I'm sorry to have kept you waiting. "As he spoke, he walked up to her and hugged her in his arms. He patted her back to comfort her and to express his apology.
Yao Xuefei said, "It's okay." Then she kissed him on the cheek. She was tall and had long legs. Although she wasn't as tall as Dong Jieyu, she was considered tall among women. If she wanted to kiss him on the cheek, she didn't need to stand on her tiptoes. She only needed to raise her head slightly.
After she kissed Li Rui, she was about to pull him into the living room when her eyes lit up. She found something near the collar of his coat. She raised her hand and gently picked it up. Then she raised her other hand and spread out the thing in her hands.
Li Rui noticed her small movements and looked down. Yao Xuefei saw him looking over and deliberately showed him the long strand of hair between her two hands. Li Rui's head buzzed. His mind was in a mess. He knew that something was wrong, but he couldn't do anything about it. Yao Xuefei didn't get angry. Instead, she stared at him with a smile on her face.
At that moment, Li Rui was extremely embarrassed. He sighed and said, "Okay, I was wrong. I lied … Honey, I went to see Ding Yijing after the banquet. I told you about her. Do you still remember? I went to give her a Christmas present and stayed with her for a while. After that, I rushed over to accompany you. I lied just now because … I was afraid that you would be jealous. Really, I didn't lie to you on purpose. I don't have to lie to you because of her. You know my relationship with her. I was just afraid that you … would be upset if you knew. "
Yao Xuefei smiled and said gently, "You think too much. Even if you told me the truth, I wouldn't be jealous. After all, you came with me tonight and not with her. Am I right?" Li Rui was greatly moved. He held her beautiful face and kissed her hard on her pink lips. "Hubby, I'm sorry." Yao Xuefei said, "You don't have to be sorry. Although you lied to me, you did it for me. I'm only happy." Li Ruiqi said, "You're really not angry at all? Not jealous at all? " Yao Xuefei smiled generously and said, "Leave the job of being jealous to your future wife …" She paused and said, "But this is also a wake-up call for you. You're going to get married soon, right? After you get married, remember to clean your clothes before you go home at night. Remove all the things that shouldn't be left behind. "
Li Rui was very ashamed. He smiled and said, "Actually, just now … just now, Ding Yijing and I didn't do anything. We just hugged." Yao Xuefei acted as if she didn't hear him. She smiled and said, "Go take a shower. I've already boiled the water for you." As she spoke, she took his briefcase and was about to put it on the sofa. Li Rui realized that she didn't want to hear about him and Ding Yijing. Thinking about it, which woman would want to hear about her man being intimate with another woman? He said, "Give me the briefcase first. There's a gift for you inside." Yao Xuefei said in surprise, "Really? There's a gift for me? " Li Rui sighed and said, "Look at what you're saying. Even if there's no one else's gift, there's a gift for my baby, Xuefei. If it weren't for the fact that I didn't have time, I would have sent it to you yesterday. "
He took the briefcase and took out the gift from inside. Yao Xuefei looked at his hand with a smile. She wanted to see what he would take out.
Any woman liked flowers and gifts. Even if it was from someone she didn't like, she would still be happy. If it was from someone she liked, she would be even happier. What did this mean? It meant that women didn't like flowers and gifts, but the feeling of being chased and doted on. It was said that women were emotional creatures. One of the reasons came from this.
Of course, there were also some greedy women who would be bought over by men's gifts. Such women liked the gift itself. At the same time, they liked real money, big houses, and luxury cars. But this was not within the scope of our discussion.
Yao Xuefei was full of expectations for Li Rui's Christmas gift. But Li Rui only took out a set of Estee Lauder's skincare products. She wondered if the gift was too little and if it would disappoint her.
This set of skincare products was worth more than two thousand yuan. For an ordinary holiday like Christmas, it should be a relatively expensive gift. But compared with the jade bracelet he gave to Dong Jieyu and the platinum necklace he gave to Ding Yijing, it was much less valuable. Of course, this didn't mean that Yao Xuefei's position in his heart was inferior to Dong Jieyu and Ding Yijing. What kind of gift to give was decided by many reasons.
He thought that Dong Jieyu was a woman who had a shallow friendship with him. She had a miscarriage and was relatively independent from him financially. Therefore, it was reasonable for him to treat her as well as possible. Therefore, when he chose a gift for her, he bought a jade bracelet worth more than twenty thousand yuan. It not only contained his feelings for her, but also showed his apology to her. As for Ding Yijing, he rarely saw her in a year, but he had a special feeling for her. Therefore, he took the opportunity of Christmas to give her a big gift and let her know that she was always in his heart. Back to Yao Xuefei, this big baby. Both of them were in Qingyang, so they could be together from time to time. Moreover, their bodies and minds were one. She also made a lot of extra money from the TV station. Therefore, there was no need to buy her a big gift on Christmas. It wouldn't be too late to give her a big gift on Valentine's Day or her birthday. If he gave her a big gift on Christmas, what could he give her on a more important holiday? He was afraid that he couldn't afford a gift even if he sold all his money.
