188 Li Xiwu Will Go to the Li Mansion
Qiao Qiao asked carefully, “Are you very angry?”
Li Xiwu asked, “Why do you think so?”
Qiao Qiao recalled. “You said you wouldn’t expose it, but I dug out everything about you.”
Li Xiwu’s voice was laced with amusement. “But it’s out in the open now.”
!!
Qiao Qiao lowered her voice. “I’m sorry, Bae. I posted those contents without consulting you.”
With that, Li Xiwu smiled gently and said, “Qiao’er, thank you.”
Qiao Qiao was stunned. “Huh?”
Li Xiwu repeated firmly, “Thank you.”
Qiao Qiao was a little confused by Li Xiwu’s thanks. “Thank you? Bae, aren’t you angry?”
Li Xiwu: “Why should I be angry? On the contrary, I’m very happy. You were the one who stayed up late to make a complete clarification on Weibo to counter those public opinions.” As soon as she finished speaking, she paused and reminded her, “But it’s not right to stay up late in the middle of the night.”
Qiao Qiao remembered that she had only slept for half the night last night. It had taken more than two hours to complete the clarification and careful words she had sent. Knowing that Li Xiwu was not angry, Qiao Qiao chuckled. “Okay, I won’t stay up late anymore.”
Just as she finished speaking, Qiao Jingmo’s voice came from behind. “Qiao Guigui!”
Qiao Qiao was shocked. She quickly covered her phone and said to Li Xiwu, “Bae, I’m hanging up. Send me a WeChat message if there’s something on.”
Then, she immediately hung up.
Li Xiwu: “…”
If she hadn’t heard wrongly, the voice on the other end of the line should be Qiao Jingmo. She knew Qiao Qiao’s nickname. Could it be that Qiao Jingmo usually called Qiao Qiao by this nickname?

After resting for three days.
Mother-in-Law Joy would welcome the fourth episode.
Everyone had already received the director’s message in the group chat. This time, they did not have to gather in Fu Town. Every group of mother-in-law and daughter-in-law would go out alone. However, it was not as simple as going out alone. There was also a mission card.
In order to ensure that tomorrow’s live broadcast went smoothly, the director announced tomorrow’s mission in the group.
After Li Xiwu finished reading the contents of the mission, in summary, each group of mother-in-law and daughter-in-law checked four very memorable places in the capital.
There was a special notification below.
The so-called memorial significance was not referring to places like parks, amusement parks, and seas of flowers. Instead, it was referring to some places where celebrities, heroic deeds, and political deeds were considered memorial.
Every time they clock in, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law will take a photo together. It was not until they had clocked in four places that they completed the mission successfully.
There was also an important rule. Where other guests had finished clocking in, the other group of guests could not clock in a second time. For example, the first group was about to go to a place halfway, but when they received the notice that they had been successfully clocked in by the second group, the first group would have to turn around and change to another place.
Otherwise, if the places were overlapped, the mission would be completed easily. There was no challenge at all.
At this moment, the director sent a message in the group chat—
Gao Yueban: [Everyone, you can start searching for the place you’re going to clock in tomorrow. I suggest you search for a few more. In case you’re clocked in by other guests midway, you have to change your destination in time. That way, you can complete the mission as soon as possible.]
Soon, Yu Jing posted another message: [The main purpose of this episode is still positive energy. Because every time we go to a memorable place, the audience will gain more positive values.]
Gao Yueban: [Some places require an appointment to enter. The production team will communicate immediately. If you still can’t enter, you can only change places.]
People were already replying in the group chat: [Got it.]
Li Xiwu also typed a reply: [Got it.]
Taking advantage of the time in the afternoon, Li Xiwu planned to visit Ji Weiling on set.
Buzz.
Buzz.
Just as she was about to put away her phone, she received another notification on WeChat. It was a WeChat message from Han Qianye.
Han Qianye: [You don’t have to worry. I can search more than twenty places. I guarantee that we’ll complete the mission smoothly tomorrow.]
Li Xiwu replied: [Okay.]
It showed that the other party was typing. Li Xiwu was in no hurry to put away her phone and waited for a moment. Soon, Han Qianye sent a voice message: [Are your injuries better? Does your head still hurt? Tonight… Yes, tonight… Do you have time to come back to the Pei residence for dinner?]
There was a long pause between these words. Han Qianye was probably very nervous. Afraid that Li Xiwu would refuse, she hesitated for a long time before asking.
Li Xiwu typed a reply. Before she could send it, Han Qianye sent another WeChat message: [If you don’t have time, you can wait until the recording of the variety show is over. I was just asking.]
Li Xiwu suppressed the smile on her lips and deleted the two words she had just typed. Then, she sent a voice message: [If I have time tonight, I’ll return to the Pei residence before five-thirty.]
Meanwhile, after hearing this voice message, Han Qianye was so happy that she spun around.
Pei Jiao, who passed by the living room, said casually, “Mom, people at this age will more or less have osteoporosis. Stay calm.”
Han Qianye: “…”
At this age?
Osteoporosis?
Calm?
Very good!
Han Qianye said, “I’ll deduct your allowance for next month.”
Pei Jiao stopped in her tracks and turned around in disbelief. “Mom? I was just reminding you out of kindness. Why did you deduct my pocket money again?”
Could it be that her mother knew that she had just gotten five million yuan from the God of Fortune? So she kept talking about deducting her pocket money!
That won’t do!
...
She had to get the five million yuan!
Her pocket money could not be deducted either!
Pei Jiao immediately put on a fawning smile and walked to Han Qianye. “My beautiful, elegant, and gentle mother~”
Han Qianye said, “Say more if you know.”
Hence, Pei Jiao began to praise her mother crazily. As she praised her, she cursed her foul mouth. She clearly felt that there was nothing wrong with what she said every time, but every time she said it, her mother would be angry.
In the end, Pei Jiao praised her until her mouth was dry. Only then did Han Qianye take back her words about deducting next month’s pocket money.
She pulled Pei Jiao to sit down. “There’s a new mission for tomorrow’s recording. I have to clock in four places that are very memorable. Celebrities, heroes, political history, and so on. Help me plan dozens of them.”
Pei Jiao said, “This is another price.”
“Did you fall into a money pit!”
As soon as she finished speaking, Han Qianye’s phone vibrated. She opened it and saw that it was a WeChat message from Director Gao.
Gao Yueban said, “Mrs. Pei, this is a selection of 16 places. It meets our program mission this time and is also a place rarely visited. Take a look first.”
...
After reading the WeChat message from Gao Yueban, Han Qianye immediately understood that Director Gao was pulling strings for her.
As much as she wanted to say it was unethical to go through the back door, if she was the one who’s going through it, she’d pretend she hadn’t said anything.
Han Qianye quickly copied it. As she copied, she looked only at the front and back, ignoring the middle.
There was a place in the middle that she had ignored called Qiang Yue Garden’s Li Mansion.
