This meal was a great pleasure for both the host and the guests.

Because Chi Yuheng helped Li Siwei several times in succession, and had a clear attitude on the issue of breaking off the engagement with the Zhou family.

So before the dinner was over, he had once again successfully changed the way Li Mengyang addressed him, from "Brother Chi" to "Yuheng".

As he wished, he became an equal of Li Siwei and called Li Mengyang and his wife "Uncle Li" and "Aunt Yue".

When Li Siying heard someone change their words, she was so angry that the chopsticks in her hand almost broke.

When Cheng Bai saw his boss achieve his wish, he secretly complained:

It's really hard for the boss. Apart from the matters related to Miss Li, he has never seen his boss be so scheming.

Tsk tsk tsk! It really is love that makes people lose their way...

After three rounds of drinks, dinner was coming to an end.

After Li Mengyang carefully inquired about Chi Yuheng's itinerary and agreed on a time for a formal banquet, Chi Yuheng also stood up and said goodbye.

Because of her foot injury, Li Siwei had a legitimate reason not to go out to see her off.

After the Li family sent Chi Yuheng and the other person away, Lu Yueci took the medicine they gave her, pushed Li Siying's wheelchair, took the elevator, and returned to Li Siying's room.

With the help of Lu Yueci and Aunt Tong, Li Siying took a quick shower and was then helped by the two to sit on the bed.

Aunt Tong left tactfully, and Lu Yueci slowly spoke while helping her apply ice.

"Wangyao, when did you find out that Zhou Chengfeng had a girlfriend outside?"

"Not long." Since she couldn't talk about her rebirth, Li Siwei could only say it vaguely.

"How long is a short time?" Lu Yueci frowned. "And since you already knew everything, why didn't you tell Mom and Dad? Is it... because we agreed to the marriage with the Zhou family, do you blame us in your heart?"

Her fingers holding the ice pack trembled slightly, and she didn't know if it was because of the cold, or...

Li Siwei tilted her head, seemingly not expecting her mother to think this way. "How could that be?"

"Although this engagement was made between Grandpa and Old Man Zhou before he died, it was the Zhou family who came to force you to fulfill the engagement. In the end, it was me who agreed to be with Zhou Chengfeng. So no matter how you look at it, you and Dad can't be blamed for this."

She smiled and said, "If you really want to blame yourselves for this, then at most you can only blame the excellent reference system you provided me."

"What reference system?" Lu Yueci frowned in confusion, not realizing what she was saying.

"That's Dad, eldest brother, second brother, third brother, and uncle!"

Li Siwei counted on her fingers, "Look at these men around me. They're all tall, handsome, and well-built. Furthermore, their character, knowledge, cultivation, and abilities are all outstanding!"

"Since I was little, I've been surrounded by a group of top-tier boy bands. My taste and appetite have been spoiled. How could such an ordinary guy catch my eye?"

After she finished speaking, she raised her eyebrows proudly and said to Lu Yueci playfully, "Mom, do you think I'm right?"

"You..." Lu Yueci smiled dotingly and shook her head helplessly.

In fact, what Li Siying said was not nonsense. After all, in her previous life, she agreed to marry into the Zhou family and agreed to be with Zhou Chengfeng.

Most likely it was because she had never met a man who could make her eyes light up and her heart beat fast since she was a child.

And now...

Someone's face suddenly popped up in her mind, and her fingers unconsciously touched the bracelet on her wrist again.

Noticing her movements, Lu Yueci's eyes moved slightly.

Concealing her expression, she said casually, "Ahhh, did you buy this bracelet? Why haven't I seen it before?"

"Huh? This..."

Feeling panicky for a moment, Li Siwei quickly looked away and replied subconsciously, "Yes, yes, I bought it recently and I'm wearing it for the first time today..."

As she spoke, her fingertips were still stroking the sunflower adorning the buckle.

"Come, let mommy see."

When Lu Yueci saw this, she immediately had some guesses in her mind.

Li Siying was afraid that someone would find out, so she had no choice but to take off the bracelet and hand it to her mother.

After taking a closer look, Lu Yueci's gaze also stopped on the exquisitely designed and lifelike sunflower.

"It's very well made. Where did you buy it?"

"I had it custom-made at a small shop on the street when I was on a business trip to Country F a while ago. It was just recently shipped back."

Li Siwei didn't dare to look into her mother's eyes at all, so she could only make up stories.

"Then, can I give it to my mother?" Lu Yueci continued to test.

"Ah?" Li Siwei looked up in surprise. "This, this... I've already worn this. If you like it, Mom, I'll order you a new one tomorrow."

While she said this, she was thinking that she had to quickly ask the man where he bought the bracelet.

But suddenly she realized that she, she, she... she didn't have Chi Yuheng's phone number yet!

Just when she was panicking and didn't know how to contact Chi Yuheng, Lu Yueci smiled and handed the bracelet back to her.

"Mom is just teasing you."

"This bracelet looks like something you young people would wear. It's not suitable for a mother her age."

"Since you like it so much, just wear it well and don't lose it."

After carefully helping her put on the bracelet, Lu Yueci picked up the ice pack.

While helping her apply ice, he smiled faintly and asked, "What do you think of Mr. Chi?"

"What do you mean?" Li Siwei was extremely nervous, but she had to pretend to be calm.

"In all aspects, based on the 'reference system' you just mentioned, how would you rate Mr. Chi?" Lu Yueci raised her eyes and smiled gently.

"He, he's an elder." Li Siwei continued to fiddle with the bracelet. "It's so rude to comment on an elder."

"Elder? You've already broken off your engagement with Zhou Chengfeng. What does this Zhou family's in-laws have to do with us?"

Lu Yueci smiled. "Besides, when we were having dinner just now, he himself said that we shouldn't get hung up on this and let's just talk about our own things. Didn't you hear him calling your dad 'Uncle Li'?"

Li Siwei: “…Ah, this…”

She gets angry when this is mentioned.

But if I continue to be hesitant and not speak when facing my mother's questions, I will seem guilty.

So she pretended to think, "If I really have to give it a score... I'd give it a 7."

Not too high, not too low, just passing the passing line.

It doesn't seem intimate, nor does it seem contrived.

"Only 7 points?"

Lu Yueci was surprised. "What about Zhou Chengfeng? How would you rate him?"

"Negative 10 points."

"Before you knew he was cheating?"

Hearing this, Li Siwei thought for a moment, "3 points is already the maximum, it absolutely cannot be more."

She only gave these 3 points because of the Zhou family's background and the good looks Chi Manning gave him.

Lu Yueci smiled and said, "My daughter's standards are indeed high."

"However, considering Mr. Chi's conditions, you only gave him 7 points, which is really stingy."

"I see that he's not only handsome, but also has a good height and figure. His family background and education are also excellent. Plus, he founded HL..."

She smiled and looked at Li Siwei, "Are you sure you don't want to add a few more points?"

Li Siwei: ...What does this mean, Mom?

Could it be that Chi Yuheng has already successfully conquered her? !

Thinking about it, she smiled awkwardly, "Yes, yes, then... let's give it 9 points."

"It really can't be any higher. After all, in my heart, no one can surpass my father, eldest brother, second brother, third brother and uncle."

"That's it."

Having a basic idea in mind, Lu Yueci smiled, "If your father, your brother, and your uncle heard what you said, I guarantee they would be so happy that their tails would be curled up."

"I'm telling the truth~~~" Li Siwei smiled and acted coquettishly.

"Yeah, yeah, it's the truth, the absolute truth."

Lu Yueci also curled her lips, but she changed the subject and asked, "How much do you know about the Jingbei Chi family, Yaoyao?"
