Mr. CEO Wants to Renew Our Contract-Chapter 1085: With You Always (230)
"Qing Li, send your young master’s parents back to the old mansion, and have someone watch them; they’re not to take a single step out."
"Yes."
Father Long and Dragon Mother were extremely unwilling to leave, but they couldn’t resist the enforcement and were eventually taken away.
The living room was quiet again. 𝚏𝕣𝐞𝗲𝐰𝕖𝐛𝐧𝕠𝕧𝚎𝚕.𝐜𝚘𝗺
Gu Lili looked at Old Madam Long and the old man, "Grandpa, Grandma, I don’t know what you all think, but I want to say that I’ve always considered you family."
Old Madam Long took her hand, "We know what kind of person you are, and we’ve always considered you family too. Don’t let Beibei’s parents’ words weigh on you."
"That’s right, sister-in-law. You know how my mom talks," Long Tianjiao chimed in, "Now that my brother’s life is uncertain, you’re more worried than any of us, and we all understand that."
"Sister-in-law, don’t worry about the company. As long as I’m here, everything will be fine. We don’t understand much about the Five Realms, but surely there’s a lot going on that requires your attention. My brother is already in trouble, you are the pillar of our family, you can’t let anything happen to you, or we really won’t know what to do." Long Fengxi sincerely looked at her, "Take good care of yourself."
"With you managing the company, I’m assured." Gu Lili took the boiled egg Gu Xichen handed and rolled it on her face, "As for everything else, let’s just go with the flow."
...
Liang He and Shen Congmo didn’t turn a word throughout. On the way from Qin Garden to the old mansion, they were in the same car, with Old Madam and the old man in the front vehicle.
At this moment, Liang He spoke, "Your mother-in-law is quite something, Tianjiao, you should talk to her when you see her."
"Do I even need to say anything? Just wait and see, when we get home, Grandma alone will be enough to criticize her to death."
Long Tianjiao was right. When they reached home, Old Madam Long began to scold Dragon Mother as soon as she stepped through the door.
"Your act at Qin Garden was really dreadful, so much that I didn’t even want to speak to you in front of outsiders."
"I did nothing wrong, I also said nothing wrong. She deserved a beating."
"She deserved a beating?" Old Madam Long gave a cold laugh, "I think it’s you who deserves a beating. Lili simply doesn’t want to stoop to your level, are you actually thinking she’s afraid of you? You really take a mile when given an inch, don’t you?!"
"You people are so opportunistic," Dragon Mother replied indignantly, "Looking at her status as the Divine Mother of the Heavenly World, you don’t even dare accuse her a single word when Beibei’s in trouble!"
"Opportunistic?" Old Madam Long truly couldn’t listen anymore, "What reason is there to accuse her?"
"She’s the sister of the Heavenly King, so why was she showing off alone in front of so many Demon World People?" Dragon Mother got angrier, "Sending herself to die and dragging my son along too, causing trouble to Beibei."
"Why didn’t she call for support then?" Old Madam Long questioned, "Didn’t she know that no matter how strong one is, mishaps are inevitable? Why didn’t she do that, to show off? In my opinion, Lili isn’t such a brainless person. Ignoring our mortal world, would the Demon World, Immortal Realm, and Netherworld allow the Heavenly World to wage war on the Demon World? No matter how much the Netherworld King is Beibei’s father, he is still the leader of a realm and responsible for his people. Do you think this is something you can dictate without limits? Otherwise, why aren’t you the Divine Mother of the Heavenly World, and can’t place your brother in the Heavenly King’s position?"
"Well, it’s just reincarnation isn’t fair."
"Reincarnation isn’t fair?" Old Madam Long continued, "Lili is the sister of the Heavenly King, the Divine Mother of the Heavenly World. Would she care about mortal realm company assets?"
