Chapter 185 Since Tang Li Likes It, He’s Willing to Try To Like It
Tang Li had already told them in advance when she would arrive, so by the time they entered the living room, the dinner was ready. As usual, Yu Meng was too scared to come down to eat, so Tang Zitong brought a bowl of food up for her to eat.
It was obvious that Yu Meng was no longer guarded against Tang Zitong.
At the dining table, First Master Tang asked Qi Yihan if he wanted to drink.
Qi Yihan replied, “No, while Li is busy later, we can talk about that piece of land in detail.”
The Tang family was elated. Although Tang Li helped them get rid of the mountain on that land, whether or not an airport would be built over there still depended on Qi Yihan. They didn’t plan to force him to help them, but they would definitely be happy if he would help.
Because there were many people tonight, the Tang family was separated into two tables.
The men sat at one table, the women at another.
It was a joyous and harmonious scene.
When Qi Yihan subconsciously turned to look at Tang Li, he happened to see Su Ziqing putting food into Tang Li’s bowl.
From his angle, he could see Su Ziqing looking at Tang Li attentively, saying, “Cousin, you used to like seafood. I thought you wouldn’t like it anymore because you’ve changed so much.”
Tang Li smiled and asked, “My palate didn’t change at all.”
Su Ziqing continued, “When you have time, let’s go to Hai Cheng. There’s a lot of seafood there. We can also go out to the island that we’ve been to before. I’ll treat you to a table of seafood.”
Tang Li nodded casually.
Su Ziqing looked even happier.
At this moment, Tang Zitong added enviously, “You two only met once or twice every year. Why are you so close to each other?”.
Su Ziqing continued after her, “Because a lot of our thoughts and hobbies are the same. Don’t you agree, Cousin?”
Tang Li did not answer this time. She dived herself into the bowl of seafood.
The Host and Su Ziqing had similar hobbies, thoughts, and family backgrounds, so they were kindred spirits. However, Tang Li was different. Other than liking seafood like the Host, the rest of their hobbies were worlds apart.
When Qi Yihan saw their interaction, he suddenly narrowed his eyes solemnly.
He did not like it when Tang Li and Su Ziqing got too close. This made him inexplicably uncomfortable.
At this moment, Su Ziqing suddenly looked over.
The corners of Su Ziqing’s lips curled up before she reminded Tang Li, “Cousin, your husband is looking at you.”
Tang Li tilted her head to look at Qi Yihan and smiled at him. She used her chopsticks to point at the seafood on the table, hinting for him to eat as well.
She then withdrew her gaze.
Qi Yihan also withdrew his gaze and looked at the seafood on the table. He did not like seafood that much, but since Tang Li liked it, he was willing to try to like it.
After dinner, Tang Li went to Yu Meng’s room alone.
There was a clear admiration on her face when Yu Meng saw Tang Li coming in. “Miss Tang, I’m so happy to see you.” Tang Li nodded and asked, “How have you been feeling these past few days?”.
“I feel like my mind is very clear, but… my head hurts for a while every night.” Tang Li walked over and placed her hand on her head. After a while, she said, “Don’t overthink. Some people and things are destined. If you can’t meet the person you want to meet tonight, you’ll meet them one
day.”
Yu Meng was not surprised that Tang Li knew what she was thinking. She bit her lip to suppress the sadness that welled up in her heart and said, “Mom and Dad are gone, and so is Brother Xuanyuan. I’m very sad, especially at night. What happened before keeps flashing through my mind, and I can’t do anything about it.”
As she spoke, tears rolled down her face.
Tang Li nodded and said, “If you can’t stop yourself from missing them, then listen to the music or sing ya song.” “Okay.”
Tang Li asked her to lie on the bed and she started to acupuncture her with silver needles.
In the living room.
The Tang family and Qi Yihan were discussing what to do with that piece of land right now.
The twins went back to their room to study. Since they were about to enter their third year of high school, their schedule was quite tight.
Su Ziqing asked Tang Zitong to walk around the Tang family’s courtyard with her. The two of them listened to the conversation in the living room casually and did not speak. When Tang Zitong heard Qi Yihan say that he would talk to the government about building an airport on that piece of land, she exclaimed in admiration, “I knew it. I knew Fourth Sister-in-law could do something. He is just terrific.”
Su Ziqing looked at Tang Zitong, who had a look of admiration on her face, and suddenly asked, “Zitong, were you very angry about what Cousin did previously?”
“Of course, I was. Actually, I thought Fourth Sister was suffering from some kind of brain damage that made her so stupid as to fall in love with a pretty boy.” Then Tang Zitong added quietly, “But I’m very happy that she realized her mistake. I’ve always wanted her and her husband to love each other. When they have a child, their child will definitely inherit their outstanding looks.”
When Su Ziqing heard that, she lowered her eyes and mumbled, “Actually, the cousin you saw before isn’t who she really is. She’s not that fickle and isn’t that stupid.”
“What?” Tang Zitong was struck dumb for a second.
Su Ziqing did not explain.
Tang Zitong’s curiosity was piqued. “What do you think our fourth sister was like before?”
Su Ziqing smiled. “It doesn’t matter what she was like in the past, as long as everyone thinks she is good now.”
Tang Zitong thought for a while and felt that it made sense, so she didn’t ask further.
At this moment, Su Ziqing asked, “Zitong, where is the bathroom?”
“It’s on the back,” Tang Zitong said. “Let’s go. I’ll bring you there.”
When the two of them reached the bathroom, Su Ziqing said to Tang Zitong, who was waiting for her outside, “The food tonight was too awesome. I couldn’t help but eat a little more. I probably have to stay here for a while. You don’t have to wait for me.”
Hearing that, Tang Zitong was very happy. “Hehe. If you like it, you are more than welcome to drop in on us whenever you want.” “I will.”
Qi Yihan chatted with the Tang family for a while before his phone rang. He took his phone to the courtyard to answer the call.
The call was from Milus. Milus sounded anxious and exasperated. “Qi Yihan, did your family kidnap my sister?”
Qi Yihan replied, “Mr. Milus, I am at the hospital, I don’t know what you are talking about.” “Hmph!” Milus’ tone was anxious. “Let me remind you something, If I find out that your family kidnaps my sister, I swear to God I will wipe out the Tang Family.” “Up to you.” After Qi Yihan said that, Milus hung up the phone.
He held the phone and thought for a while. Then, he punched in a number and ordered in a deep voice, “Find out Lucia’s current whereabouts.”
With that, he hung up the phone and was about to return to the living room when he saw Su Ziqing walking towards him.
