"Take it slow, this thing isn’t something that you can learn overnight, talent plays a part as well."
"Everyone knows I’m not patient and don’t stick with things for long. I want to know how long I can actually keep at this. Your voice sounds tired, go to sleep, good night."
After hanging up the phone, he squinted at Shi Xiaotian, who was still standing there. "There’s a reporter staying across to surveil us, go back to your room."
Shi Xiaotian nodded, "Did Long Tianjiao tell you this? How did she know?"
"It’s said that a reporter was taking pictures of her, and she overheard them on the phone."
"It wouldn’t be her sending someone to watch you, would it?"
Liang He wasn’t sure about this, "Shouldn’t be, you go back to sleep first, we have to get up early in the morning."
Shi Xiaotian bit her lip and left.
In her mind, Long Tianjiao was almost certainly having Liang He watched, otherwise, how could she have known as soon as she came in?
In actuality, that wasn’t the case.
The next morning, Liang He checked the hotel’s surveillance and indeed found that two men with a suitcase checked in across from him yesterday.
After reviewing the surveillance, he went to have the buffet breakfast. Google seaʀᴄh N0velFire.ɴet
While eating with Shi Xiaotian, he caught a glimpse of those two men.
And noticed one of them occasionally aiming his phone at him.
He didn’t understand what there was to take pictures of.
Liang He was used to it and paid no mind.
Looks like what Long Tianjiao said was true.
Someone really did start surveilling him from across the street.
But, they were destined to not capture anything.
Liang He gave a faint smile and slowly savored his breakfast.
Dinner was underway at the Long Family Mansion.
"I’ve been feeling so suffocated recently, my mood is a mess, I want to go on a vacation, Lili, come with me."
Gu Lili thought she had heard wrong, "Mom, you’re asking me to go with you?"
"Yes, don’t want to?" Dragon Mother raised her eyes.
"I’m just surprised. You dislike me so much, why would you want me to accompany you?"
"Feng Xi isn’t in the country, Tian Jiao is too busy, Yu Bei has official business every day, your dad is bedridden, and you’re the one in this house with the most free time. If not you, then who else will go with me?"
"But going out is for relaxation and enjoyment. You should bring a bodyguard instead of me since you don’t like me, isn’t it vexing to see me every day?" Gu Lili tactfully declined, "And although I might be quite free, I still do some meaningful things every day, like reading, exercising, or accompanying my husband to the company."
"It’s precisely because our relationship is so-so that I want to take this opportunity to improve it," Dragon Mother unusually voiced these thoughts, "After all, you are my daughter-in-law, and we will have to see each other frequently. I don’t hope to have a distant relationship with you for long."
Old Madam Long put down her chopsticks and spoke approvingly, "This sounds like what a mother-in-law should say. Lili is our family member, no matter when, always remember this: a harmonious family leads to prosperity. If there are problems within a family, outside enemies can invade easily. Lili, you and Beibei should go out and play with your mom for a few days. Beibei has been working so hard managing the company, he should also rest for a while."
Gu Lili saw that her grandmother had spoken, and thus she said no more.
She really felt there was nothing much to talk about with Dragon Mother, even when they came back to the old mansion for meals, there was no common ground, and now to go out on a trip together...
Perhaps it was because she felt no particular fondness for those who did not like her.
