Evening Rose

Li Hongfei's words made me feel like ten thousand mud horses flew across my heart. It's fine to say that he didn't trust my ability, but what he said now is clearly looking down on me from the bottom of his heart.

Although I was already used to this kind of situation, I didn't know who or who the manager in front of me was. His current attitude made me feel particularly uncomfortable.

I looked at him and said word by word, "If that's the case, then please open your eyes in the coming days and see clearly how well I'll take care of the winery."

He probably didn't expect me to say such words so confidently. Li Hongfei was stunned for a moment. However, after reacting to the situation, his expression was still full of ridicule. With a cold snort, he said, "Fine, I hope you won't disappoint me then, Miss Hua Yun."

After saying this, Li Hongfei didn't even bother to look at him as he angrily left.

I looked at his back and felt really angry in my heart. I scratched my head as I felt a sense of irritation rise up within me. I forced myself to drink for a long time before I was able to calm down.

After that, the days I worked at the winery began, and Li Hongfei really did act as a bystander. No matter what I asked, the answer he gave me was that he didn't know three words, and his perfunctory attitude made me really angry.

In my heart, I knew that there was nothing I could do to stop this. The only thing I could do was to be self-reliant.

Thus, after seeking help from Li Hongfei a few times without any results, I did not try to get advice from him. Instead, after I returned to the Li Family, I borrowed Li Gangyi's computer to search for information.

I didn't have a choice. I only worked here for less than a month and I've already created so many problems. I might not even be able to see my salary for a while, so there's no need to even mention buying a phone to buy a computer.

Actually, as long as I tell Li Tianyi about this, then with his personality, he would definitely buy one for me. It's just that he doesn't want to accept any benefits, and since I don't want to owe Li Tianyi anything, I simply chose not to say no.

He didn't want to be reduced to a commodity that could be sold.

Today, he pretended to be rushing back to the Li Family residence. Just as he was thinking about whether he should go upstairs with Mimi and not see Li Hui Xiu.

I had no choice. Ever since the Purple Division started moving in with the Li family, every time I returned home from work, I would always suffer a few difficulties from Li Hui Xiu. As time passed, I got used to it. However, after being busy at the winery for the whole day and also having a battle of wits with that man Li Hongfei, I truly felt tired, so I didn't want to face Li Hui Xiu at all.

It was just that I had absolutely not expected that on this day, I would not be able to avoid the calamity that was about to befall Li Hui Xiu, and similarly, I had not been able to escape the difficulties that was about to befall the Xu Family's parents.

As for this, just as I was about to enter the living room and directly go around Li Hui Xiu upstairs to rest, I was surprised to find that Li Hui Xiu had a serious expression on his face as he sat on the sofa beside me with an awkward smile.

Sitting next to her was Xu Anya, whom I hadn't seen for a few days. At this moment, her face no longer had the usual smile, but was gloomy and looked extremely wronged. It was unknown just who bullied her.

Opposite Li Huixiu sat a middle-aged man and woman who looked like a couple. The man's eyebrows were a bit similar to Xu Anya's. If one looked carefully at the woman, she seemed to look very similar to Xu Anya.

Having observed this point, just as I was guessing whether this couple was Xu Anya's parents, that man opened her mouth, "My dear mother, we're not making things difficult for the Li Family, nor are we making things difficult for Yi. This shitty marriage was set by you excitedly running over to our house to announce it.

The man's words caused me to be slightly stunned. I recalled the words Li Tianyi said in Xu Anya's office that morning. I thought to myself, "Did Li Tianyi break the window so quickly?"

However, the situation in front of him seemed to be very tricky. If Li Tianyi really wanted to break off the engagement, it would be difficult for him to do so in a short period of time. Even though he had never agreed to this engagement from the beginning to the end.

When I thought of this, I couldn't help but feel sad for Li Tianyi. I really didn't know what happiness he would have if he didn't even have control over his own happiness.

"Xiao Ya's father, why don't you say that? Your invitation card was sent out, so wasn't my home the same as yours? Furthermore, I feel heartache for Xiao Ya, how could it be possible for my family to bully Xiao Ya!"

Faced with Mr Xu's overbearing questioning, although Li Hui Xiu's expression was awkward, he was still able to arrange his posture and answer them one by one in an orderly manner.

Thus, for a good while, Mr Xu did not reply, merely letting out a cold snort. Clearly, he also did not wish to completely sever the relationship between the two families.

Li Hui Xiu immediately seized this opportunity and continued, "This matter is my fault for not discussing it with Yi, which is why he played with a child's temper. Don't worry, everything will be settled as usual with regards to the engagement banquet."

I really don't know why she forced her own son to marry a woman he doesn't like into the family. Was it really just for the clan's marriage, to let the Li family rise to a whole new level?

If that's the case, then I feel more and more sorrowful for Li Tianyi.

"I hope so!"

Mr Xu seemed to still be angry, but compared to earlier, he was finally less overbearing.

"My dear mother, it's not that our Xu Family is making things difficult for you, just that you were the one who said it about the engagement. You also know that my family's Xiaoyi has been fond of her since she was young."

Mother Xu, who was seated beside Mr Xu, put down the teacup in her hands, gracefully sparring with Li Hui Xiu, though her eyes were a little sharper. From my point of view, her profile was really quite similar to Xu Anya's.

This protective stance did not lose out in the slightest to Xu Tingsheng's father.

"Mom, I already said it's not like that!"

Unexpectedly, Xu Anya, whose face had always been gloomy, immediately jumped out at this moment just as her mother finished speaking. She opened her mouth to speak for Li Tianyi. It seemed like she really couldn't tolerate others saying anything bad about Li Tianyi.

Mother Xu was disappointed by Xu Anya's state and immediately glared at her. But afterwards, she still dotingly sighed, saying in front of everyone, "You really are a woman that can't be kept!"
