He Meiwei felt angry at her own body for letting her down.
She also regretted why she had made such a decision back then.
Otherwise, she wouldn’t have to stand by and watch him being affectionate with another woman now.
"I’ve really learned something new," Long Yubei praised his little wife, "Baby, you’re truly amazing."
Gu Lili raised her chin slightly, "Of course, what others can do, I may not, but what I can do, others definitely cannot. You’re not at a loss for marrying me."
His lips curled up, his smile brimming with hidden meaning, "It seems, I have quite the eye for talent."
"Honey, I have something I want to discuss with you."
"I want to learn computer technology knowledge. My master didn’t teach me this area, could you find someone to teach me?"
Gu Lili had her own little scheme; having many skills would not be a burden.
"Of course, it’s great that you want to learn, and it would only be a concern if you didn’t. Tomorrow, I’ll get Qing Li to find a computer expert to teach you specifically. Besides this, is there anything else you want to learn?"
"There’s a lot, but let’s take it one thing at a time, let’s master this first."
He looked at her sparkling beautiful eyes, and couldn’t help but kiss her several times on the spot.
In her heart, Gu Lili felt as sweet as honey, yet she still said, "Honey, we are outside, could you pay a bit more attention to appearances?"
"What’s an appearance? Can you eat it?" He wrapped his arms around her slender waist, a domineering air to his voice as he uttered two words, "Let’s go home."

The next day at noon.
The sunshine was brilliant, and the entire Gu Family seemed to be coated in a layer of gold.
Mr. Gu had just finished his lunch when his wife, who he had recently married, hurried over to sit beside him and whispered, "Husband, Min Lai has graduated from college too. He told me today that he wants to work at the company, would you consider arranging a position for him?"
"Let him start from the bottom," Mr. Gu said casually, "He needs to be trained."
Gu Li’s mother was somewhat dissatisfied. She weathered many years of hardship and only recently married him, so wasn’t it all for the sake of her child?
"Xichen started off directly as a General Manager back then, why does Min Lai need to start from the very bottom? As a father, you ought to treat all children equally."
"Let me ask you," Mr. Gu looked at her, "Xichen had interned at the company before even graduating from college, starting from the bottom and achieved outstanding results. Have you forgotten all this? After his graduation, naturally, he was assigned the position of General Manager. If Min Lai wants the role of General Manager, I need to see his capabilities. It is not because he is my son that he can ascend to the heavens in one step."
Thinking of the bigger picture, Gu Li’s mother held back her temper, "I heard that Xichen and his girlfriend broke up, and he’s at that age now. Shall I arrange some blind dates for him?"
Mr. Gu replied, "I called him. When he comes back, ask for his opinion first."
When Gu Xichen returned home, Mr. Gu asked, "Did you ask her about the matter?"
"Why did you not ask?"
Gu Xichen replied, "She will not agree."
Mr. Gu was puzzled, "You didn’t even ask, how do you know she will not agree?"
"Dad," Gu Xichen explained, "Lili’s temperament is very similar to my mother’s. Although she is not my mother’s biological daughter, she was raised by my mother’s own hands. Lili is well aware of the attitude my mother had towards you, so how could she agree to become your goddaughter and acknowledge ties with you? I don’t think there is even a one percent chance of that happening, so I won’t ask her."
Mr. Gu, of course, understood this, "She married Long Yubei and didn’t even have a substantial maternal family. If she had the support of our Gu Family, imagine how much better she would look. Your mother is already dead; a dead person shouldn’t have the power to influence a living person’s decisions, no matter how impossible it may seem, we must always try."
