"Then you can tell me if the injury on your face was caused by Li Maohua? And why did he beat you?" Zhou Hao asked again.
"Yes, I've made him unhappy, and he's been under a lot of pressure recently, but he just did it in a fit of anger, isn't it strange?"
"Then did you tell him what you think?"
"what idea?"
"Didn't you say you want to break up with him and start a new life?"
Zhou Hao looked at Xu Jingqiu, but what he didn't expect was that Xu Jingqiu suddenly smiled and said: "When did I say that I would break up with him, oh, I remembered it was when we were drinking together that day. Zhou Hao you Even believe what I say after drinking, do you think I will leave him? If I leave him, who do I ask for money? Looking for you? You can’t afford me, well, your appearance makes me sleep tonight I have no interest in playing here anymore, I warn you not to let me meet you again in the future!"
After Xu Jingqiu finished speaking coldly, she turned around and picked up her bag and went outside the bar.Zhou Hao watched her leave, and stood there for a while, not knowing what to do.
Is it Li Maohua?
This became the most troubled question in Zhou Hao's mind.
What if it is really him?Li Maohua is the true overlord of Haishi, he is just a commoner, if Li Maohua wants to deal with him, how should he deal with it?It seems that there is no way to resist!
Huh... I'd better not get confused, maybe Li Maohua is still ambiguous.He is a majestic mayor, and he will even be a secretary in the future. How could someone as high as him really want to attack me in such a way.Just adapt to the circumstances and see if there are other things in the future.
Zhou Hao was very passive, but he had no choice but to bear the passivity.Seeing that Xu Jingqiu had already walked out of the bar, when the Beetle car that followed Xu Jingqiu had disappeared, Zhou Hao suddenly felt a sense of loss in his heart.
Xu Jingqiu is right, it is the best choice for us not to meet in the future.She has her life, I have mine, even friends don't do it.She is not an ordinary woman, when she becomes a Li Maohua woman, she can't be friends with anyone, especially the opposite sex, can't she?
Zhou Hao suddenly understood in his heart, but the unshakable sense of loss in his heart made him very unhappy.
After driving back home, Zhou Hao was lying on the bed bored but not sleepy.Taking out his mobile phone and seeing that there were no missed calls, Zhou Hao still called Li Man after thinking about it.
Maybe she is just waiting for my call!
The phone rang, and Li Man answered it soon, and asked with a smile on the phone: "Husband, why haven't you rested since it's so late, you have to go to work tomorrow?"
"I can't sleep for a while, didn't your parents say anything when you went back today?" Zhou Hao asked.
"No... what can they say, but they just asked why I went back suddenly. I told them that I asked them so I didn't ask, hehe." Li Man replied very easily.
Only then did Zhou Hao feel relieved. He knew that his father-in-law and mother-in-law were difficult to deal with, but fortunately nothing seemed to happen.
"That's fine. I'll pick you up at your house in a few days. I had a bad fight with your dad last time. He's an old man after all. I should go and make amends with him."
Father-in-law is not an ordinary relative, although Zhou Hao really doesn't want to go, but sometimes he has to take care of some people who are sophisticated.
It's just that Li Man hastily said: "No need, husband, my father has no problem at all. Well, it's getting late, you should go to rest."
"Why don't you want me to go?" Zhou Hao asked with a frown.
"Of course not, but you have to know my dad's temper. He told him about the last time you called him and scolded people. If you come here now, he will probably scold you again out of face-saving. I don't want to let You're just angry. Well, go to sleep!"
"Well, then I'll call you and you'll be back."
Zhou Hao said lightly and moved the phone away from his ear, but when he held it, he found that the phone hadn't been hung up for a long time. After waiting for more than ten seconds, Zhou Hao put it back to his ear and asked, "What else is there?" ?"
"Ah? I'm waiting for you to hang up the phone." Li Man said.
"Hehe, why are you still doing this when you're too old? Just hang up." Zhou Hao couldn't help laughing. He was about to hang up when Li Man's voice came from the phone:
"Honey, no matter what happened in the past, from now on I will stick to our marriage. No one can stop me. I love you!"
After saying this, Li Man hung up the phone in a hurry, and Zhou Hao got up with the phone stuck to his ear, feeling a little confused.
Chapter 353 Helpless Compromise
The room became quiet, and her husband's gentle voice was no longer echoing in her ears. Li Man sat on the bedside holding her mobile phone and couldn't help sighing.
Thinking of what his father said in the study just now, Li Man's heart sank to the bottom.
Husband, no matter what I promise you, I will definitely do it.You can still accept me when I do such a thing. I always thought that there is no need to be grateful in marriage.But now I really appreciate you, I told you that I was forced, but do you think I really don't know that you are still doubting in your heart?You are just forcing yourself to forget so that our marriage can continue.You put all the pressure on yourself, but you always let me relax. I have been selfish for so long, and this time I will bear the pressure from my parents!
Li Man kept all his worries in his heart, put the mobile phone on the bedside table, and then lay down on the bed and closed his eyes.
Unknowingly, Li Man fell into sleep, and when he woke up, it was already the next morning.But she didn't wake up by herself, but her mother knocked on the door.
"Xiaoman, get up and have breakfast soon." Mother Wu Yuerong knocked on the door outside and shouted.
Li Man woke up and quickly replied, got up, changed clothes, and went downstairs to wash up.
When sitting at the dinner table, both parents ate in silence with their bowls in their hands. Li Man knew the family rules and did not say a word.
But what she didn't expect was that the father who set the rule of not talking about food would take the initiative to say: "Xiaoman, come to the company with me after dinner."
Li Man's expression froze, and he asked in puzzlement, "Dad, is the company busy recently?"
"It's not really busy, but starting today you're going to the company to get familiar with the company's affairs. I'll be 60 years old in two years. Why do you still want me to be 78?" Li Zhonghe said lightly.
Li Man's eyes widened upon hearing this, her father asked her to familiarize herself with the company's affairs?Wouldn't that be tantamount to indirectly letting her start to take over the business at home?In that case, she still has a chance to go home?
"Dad, I really don't have time to stay in the provincial capital right now. Zhou Hao's company is short of people recently. I have to go back and help him first!" Li Man didn't say it forcefully. She was afraid of offending her father, so Said to go back and help Zhou Hao first.
But unexpectedly, Li Zhonghe smashed the chopsticks in his hand on the table, and said with a cold face: "I said you are going to the company with me today, why, do you want me to kneel down and beg you if I ask you to do something now?" ?!"
"Dad is not like this, it's just..."
"It's nothing but a butt. You have to agree if you don't agree. The company was built by me, Li Zhonghe, through a lifetime of hard work. Why do you want me to hand it over to someone else? I'm just a daughter like you. If you don't come to take over? Who will take over? ?!" Li Zhong and Shen Sheng said.
Li Man couldn't speak for a while, she couldn't agree to her father now, even if she wanted to take over the family's business, she would have to wait until she returned to Haishi.After thinking about it, Li Man came up with a compromise and said, "Dad, I know you misunderstood me and Zhou Hao, but can you let me go back and talk to Zhou Hao first? Otherwise, let Man and Zhou Hao How about becoming a branch of Jincheng? At that time, Zhou Hao and I will come back to the provincial capital to manage Jincheng, and Manhe will hire another person to manage it."
"Bastard! Do I need Zhou Haolai to nod my order? And what qualifications does he have to manage Jin Cheng as a soft-boiled person? Well, it's decided like this. From today onwards, you will go to the company to familiarize yourself with the affairs, and commute to and from get off work every day. Did I hear it together?!" Li Zhonghe said with widened eyes.
Li Man bit her lips tightly and wanted to say something, but Wu Yuerong immediately winked at her, and said to her: "Xiaoman, why are you so disobedient, your father is angry, so hurry up and finish eating I'll go to the company with your dad later. Don't be self-willed in the future, whatever decisions your parents make is for your own good!"
At this moment, Li Man only felt that there were thousands of words in her heart but she couldn't say anything, and she knew her father's personality too well.The thing he decided was that even ten cows could not be brought back. Now that his father was on fire, he must not annoy him. He could only wait for the opportunity to go back to Haishi by himself!
"I see." Li Man lowered his head and said something, but he didn't want to eat any more, so he walked to the side under the pretext of being full.
After his father had finished his breakfast, Li Man reluctantly got into the car under his father's cold eyes, and went together to Jincheng Company, which his father had devoted his whole life to.
After arriving at the company, although Li Man seldom came back, some old people in the company could recognize her. After greeting each of them, Li Zhonghe said:
"From today onwards, you are Song Xiang's assistant. Song Xiang has been with me for many years, and he knows almost everything I know in the company. Be humble, it is good for you to learn from him."
Li Zhonghe only said a word, and he pulled her to stand at the door of Song Xiang's office. As soon as he opened the door and went in, Song Xiang saw Li Zhonghe and Li Man coming, and quickly got up to greet him with a smile: "Mr. Li, Xiaoman!"
"Well, Song Xiang Xiaoman, I'll leave it to you to take care of her. You spend some time teaching her."
"Okay, Mr. Li, don't worry." Song Xiang smiled, and Li Zhonghe left and went back to his office.
Li Man looked at Song Xiang, and finally squeezed out a sentence: "Brother Song, did you already know yesterday that my dad will force me to come to the company?"
