Rebirth: CEO's Sweetheart Reaches the Life Pinnacle!-Chapter 212 - 194: Every Family Has Its Own Set of Difficulties_2

Nanny Liu had a great first impression of Li Si. Her daughter, who stayed in the dorms, would share a bit about her school life whenever she returned, and she hadn’t been getting along well with the girls in her dormitory—this, Nanny Liu was aware of. Now seeing the new classmate take an interest in Xiao Le, she was genuinely happy from the bottom of her heart.

"Auntie, hello! I really like Xiao Le’s personality! Please don’t trouble yourself!" Li Si quickly grabbed Nanny Liu, who was enthusiastically preparing to show off her culinary skills. "We’ve already eaten, let’s save it for another time when we can enjoy it properly! Now that I know where your family lives, do you think I won’t be coming back often?"

Nanny Liu glanced at her daughter but ultimately followed her daughter’s lead.

Looking at the table, Liu Xiaole saw that the two of them had already eaten quite a lot. Judging by the plentiful portions her mother planned to serve, they likely wouldn’t have the appetite to enjoy it properly.

"That works! From now on, just treat this place like your own family’s restaurant. Whatever you want to eat, my mom and dad will make it for you! Sisi, you absolutely don’t have to hold back!"

"Don’t worry, I’m not that kind of person! Auntie, just go about your business! We’ll chat with Xiao Le for a bit!" Li Si said quickly upon noticing a customer going to the bar to settle their bill.

"Alright then! You two have a good chat, Auntie will go handle things first! Anytime you have the time, come over and treat this place like your own home! You’re always welcome!" Nanny Liu responded warmly before turning to leave.

Li Si whispered to Liu Xiaole near her ear, "Your mom is so amazing! I’m envious of you!" ƒreeωebnovel.ƈom

"I’m envious of you too! What a little rascal!" Liu Xiaole muttered while keeping her eyes fixed on admiring the handsome men around—this kind of treat was definitely not an everyday occurrence.

The two gossiped away, leaving Leng Mochen completely ignored. He helplessly curled his lips into a slight smile. People often joked about prioritizing love over friendship, but in her case, it was evident that she valued friendship more than romance.

The customers in the shop gradually settled their bills and left, leaving only Li Si’s table and a nearby young couple. Nanny Liu returned from the kitchen with a plate of freshly cut fruit, and Mr. Liu emerged, dressed in his chef’s uniform, to greet them.

Li Si noticed that Mr. Liu had a very honest and straightforward appearance, always wearing a kind smile on his face. This family of three—even without saying anything—radiated a sense of love that could be felt deeply.

Suddenly, the door opened, and a middle-aged woman walked in. The previously cheerful expressions of the Liu family immediately darkened.

Curious, Li Si looked toward the woman, thinking she must be someone familiar to the Liu family. The woman was impeccably dressed in flashy jewelry, with a styled hairdo featuring a deliberately high fringe held firmly in place by what must have been copious amounts of hairspray. She exuded an air of superiority—as if even strong winds wouldn’t mess up her hairstyle.

Her complexion was pale with a bluish tint, her eyes looked murky, and her lips were painted a glaring red, giving her an overall stingy and hostile vibe.

The woman scanned the room with a touch of mockery in her gaze. "Oh, everyone’s here! Don’t you have somewhere to be? It’s already so late!"

Li Si and Leng Mochen exchanged a glance, both wondering who this woman was and why she was being so unreasonable.

Liu Xiaole stood up in irritation. "What’s it to you? This isn’t your restaurant! What are you even doing here?"

Nanny Liu nudged her daughter’s back subtly, signaling her to calm down. Her tone grew cold as she said, "What kind of wind brought you here, Sister-in-law? Is there something you need?"

"Of course there’s something—something big! My daughter is getting married on May 1st, and as her uncle and aunt, you have to be informed, don’t you? If not for this, I wouldn’t bother coming here!" The woman’s gaze landed on Nanny Liu with condescending disdain.

She smirked and continued, "At the wedding, we’ll have Xiao Le be the bridesmaid, alright? We’ve sorted everything out—the outfit is ready, and there’s even a generous red envelope waiting for her. I hope she can act sensibly and not make any embarrassing mistakes. Let’s be clear: my daughter is marrying into a proper wealthy family. The venue is at China Grand—a prestigious place, so make sure you arrive early!"

"I won’t be anyone’s bridesmaid! Why should I go?" Liu Xiaole argued furiously. Had her mother not held her back earlier, she would’ve already shouted at the woman.

"Oh? Why should you? Are you still confused about your place? You’re the only suitable option from the maternal family. If not you, then who? You should understand, there are plenty of people among my daughter’s friends who want to be her bridesmaid, but your uncle insisted it had to be you!"

"Why? Isn’t it so you can mingle with young men from rich families and maybe find a suitable match? If you manage to marry rich, then your parents can live out their lives enjoying luxury too!" The woman said, her attitude dripping with condescension and disdain.

Liu Xiaole was utterly enraged. "Keep your disgusting motives to yourself! Let me tell you this—our family doesn’t need charity. Whoever wants to be a bridesmaid can go, but it won’t be me! You want me to go? Over my dead body! Do you understand?"

Nanny Liu was so infuriated that her hands clenched tightly, her lips trembling as she tried to respond, but no words seemed to come to her.
