Old Master Li said, âI see. Why donât you just make an appointment?â
Li Yu, this kid, actually rejected his âgirlfriendâ at the door. He was really impartial! If it were a certain other girl, he probably wouldnât be like this.
Old Master Liâs indifference made Zhang Nuannuan feel very awkward.
Trying to please him, she said, âOld Master Li, I came all the way here, so I canât come here for nothing. Can you help me talk to him? Iâm afraid that he is avoiding me on purpose.â
âArenât you Li Yuâs girlfriend?â Old Master Li pretended to be confused. âWhy is he deliberately avoiding you?â
âWeâve had a little conflict recently. He is a little unhappy,â said Zhang Nuannuan, feeling wronged.
âOh, I see.â Old Master Li said with a look of realization. âTo be honest, if Li Yu doesnât want to meet you, even if youâre the king, itâs useless. Even I donât dare to go against that brick wall.â
She asked in disbelief, âLi Yu dares to disobey you?â
âHe might listen to my advice at work,â said Old Master Li. âBut I wonât lay my hand in his personal business.â
Zhang Nuannuan smiled awkwardly.
Old Master Li did not want to make things difficult for this girl. After all, she was the child of Deputy Chief Zhangâs family.
He said, âMiss Zhang, if youâre wasting time here, why donât you follow Li Yuâs procedure? Go to the company and make an appointment. When the time comes, you both can meet and have a good chat. Donât even think about using the back door because he hates that kind of thing.â
Zhang Nuannuan instantly understood and said, âThank you for your guidance, Old Master Li. Iâll be leaving now. Iâll visit you again when Iâm free.â
He saw that the little girl had retreated in the face of difficulties and was tactful.
He said, âAlright, thatâs very thoughtful of you. Hurry up and go now. There are many people who make appointments every day.â
Zhang Nuannuan nodded and stood up to leave. When she was about to reach the door, she suddenly turned around and took out a business card, placing it in front of him.
She asked in a pleading tone, âOld Master Li, could you tell me in advance if Li Yu comes?â
Old Master Li gestured for the butler to take it.
The butler took the card.
Zhang Nuannuan was a little upset. Although he had asked the butler to take the business card, he did not agree immediately.
She asked hesitantly, âOld Master Li, wonât you help me?â
The butler replied, âMiss Zhang, the old master has advised you not to use the back door. Little Master hates people who use the back door. If you really like Little Master, donât think of any shortcuts. Be more grounded.â
After a pause, he continued, âYou know that, yet youâre asking the old master to inform you if Little Master is around. Isnât this destroying the relationship between the two of them? Do you understand?â
Zhang Nuannuan replied, âI understand. I didnât think things through,â
She was furious. A lousy butler dared to speak like this. He was really asking for trouble.
However, this was the Li familyâs territory, and she couldnât do anything about it.
âItâs good that you understand, Miss Zhang,â said the butler with a smile.
âThen Iâll take my leave now,â she replied with a gloomy face.
Watching her leave, Old Master Li said, âTake a guess. How much of her words are true?â
âShe probably wants to get close to Little Master, but Iâm not sure about the rest,â the butler said seriously.
Old Master Li replied with a smile, âYou, youâre getting more and more cunning as you get older,â
The butler coughed lightly and said, âIâm just telling the truth. Iâm afraid Miss Zhang isnât that easy to deal with.â
Old Master Li nodded in agreement.
âHowever, Miss Zhang must have been with Little Master before,â the butler continued. âOtherwise, she wouldnât have dared to say that sheâs his girlfriend and came here to find him.â
âThatâs right,â Old Master Li gloated. âThat little bastard Li Yu actually had a girlfriend. Iâm really surprised. I wonder if the Jiang girl will kick him away if she finds out.â
The corners of the butlerâs mouth twitched. No wonder Little Master was unwilling to come and stay here. With his own father aiming to see him embarrass himself every day, nobody would be able to stand it.
Old Master Li stood up and said, âThis girl from the Zhang family is obviously spoiled and has a bad temper. She canât stand being wronged. Sheâs not suitable to be our familyâs daughter-in-law.â
The butler frowned, âBut isnât it a trend now for the current woman to lose once the former one cries?â
âOld man,â Old Master Li said mockingly, âYouâre quite trendy. The key is, is there a genuine problem between the current and the former women?â
After a pause, he continued. âThis question depends on how the man thinks. If thereâs no love, even if the ex cries herself to death, the current one wouldnât lose..â
