The barrage on the screen exploded at that moment, and the audience, being sensible, couldn't help but feel disgusted seeing Cao Li and Li Xinghai's reactions, even if it concerned Li Yanqian's family affairs.
"What's going on? Li Yanqian's attitude towards this mother and son is completely wrong. She is not..."
Liang Mengjia couldn't sit still as the bullet screens were filled with questions about Cao Li and Li Xinghai, and the audience was curious about how Li Yanqian ended up owning a food company. It was completely different from what she had expected.
"Oh, Xiao Liang, take your time. Where is this?" Wang Weilin watched with great interest. For him, the audience could scold anyone as long as the ratings were high enough.
Liang Mengjia had to be patient and frowned as she continued to watch.
In order to arrange the meeting of the three, Ji Cheng went to great lengths to book a star-rated restaurant in Nancheng. After Li Yanqian realized that her phone had been left on, she realized that she had forgotten to hang up during the previous call...
At that moment, the car stopped outside the restaurant, and the waiter at the door opened the car door for them.
"Brother Jicheng, this must have cost you. I'm so embarrassed," Li Xinghai said with a flushed face as he straightened his collar. He followed the waiter with satisfaction into a spacious private room. He used to pass by this place and envy it, but he didn't expect to be able to come here today. Just thinking about it, he could come and go to such places every day. He had truly risen in status.
"Guys, the table here even rotates automatically," Cao Li bent over to take a look and then reached out to touch the table. The wrinkles on her face bloomed into a smile.
"Yanqian, do you have any specific dishes you want to eat? They have quite a few specialties here," Ji Cheng asked warmly.
"I'm fine with anything," Li Yanqian replied, sitting between Cao Li and Li Xinghai. Cao Li seemed to have a lot of questions.
"Yeah, Mom made mistakes in the past. Do you still hate Mom?" Cao Li asked tentatively, her words filled with anxiety.
"Mom, let's forget about the past. It's difficult for you to come here, right? Do you have a place to stay tonight?" Li Yanqian asked with concern.
"Sister, we don't have a place to stay yet, but I think this is a good place. Mom, why don't we stay here tonight?" Li Xinghai, who was ordering, looked up from the extensive menu and suggested.
"You kid, we can just find a place to stay. It'll be expensive to stay here," Cao Li didn't think there was anything wrong with calling Li Xinghai a kid, even though he seemed to be almost 30 years old.
"Auntie, it's rare for you to come here. We used to live in the neighborhood. Let's stay here tonight. I'll make the arrangements later," Ji Cheng said.
"Brother Jicheng, my mother and brother have come all the way to Nancheng. I haven't had a chance to thank you yet. How can I let you spend money? This meal tonight is on me," Li Yanxian said with a smile.
Although Li Yanqian always spoke with a smile, Ji Cheng still felt that her words of thanks were a little strange. Could she be blaming herself? However, considering that Li Yanqian had previously maintained a polite and distant attitude towards him, Ji Cheng didn't dwell on it.
"Yanqian, you're doing so well now. Mom never expected this. But you're still in school. If things get too busy at the company, you can ask your brother for help. We're always here for each other." Cao Li said earnestly, and Li Xinghai couldn't help but nod in agreement.
