Old Master Li said, “I see. Why don’t you just make an appointment?”
Li Yu, this kid, actually rejected his ‘girlfriend’ at the door. He was really impartial! If it were a certain other girl, he probably wouldn’t be like this.
Old Master Li’s indifference made Zhang Nuannuan feel very awkward.
Trying to please him, she said, “Old Master Li, I came all the way here, so I can’t come here for nothing. Can you help me talk to him? I’m afraid that he is avoiding me on purpose.”
“Aren’t you Li Yu’s girlfriend?” Old Master Li pretended to be confused. “Why is he deliberately avoiding you?”
“We’ve had a little conflict recently. He is a little unhappy,” said Zhang Nuannuan, feeling wronged.
“Oh, I see.” Old Master Li said with a look of realization. “To be honest, if Li Yu doesn’t want to meet you, even if you’re the king, it’s useless. Even I don’t dare to go against that brick wall.”
She asked in disbelief, “Li Yu dares to disobey you?”
“He might listen to my advice at work,” said Old Master Li. “But I won’t lay my hand in his personal business.”
Zhang Nuannuan smiled awkwardly.
Old Master Li did not want to make things difficult for this girl. After all, she was the child of Deputy Chief Zhang’s family.
He said, “Miss Zhang, if you’re wasting time here, why don’t you follow Li Yu’s procedure? Go to the company and make an appointment. When the time comes, you both can meet and have a good chat. Don’t even think about using the back door because he hates that kind of thing.”
Zhang Nuannuan instantly understood and said, “Thank you for your guidance, Old Master Li. I’ll be leaving now. I’ll visit you again when I’m free.”
He saw that the little girl had retreated in the face of difficulties and was tactful.
He said, “Alright, that’s very thoughtful of you. Hurry up and go now. There are many people who make appointments every day.”
Zhang Nuannuan nodded and stood up to leave. When she was about to reach the door, she suddenly turned around and took out a business card, placing it in front of him.
She asked in a pleading tone, “Old Master Li, could you tell me in advance if Li Yu comes?”
Old Master Li gestured for the butler to take it.
The butler took the card.
Zhang Nuannuan was a little upset. Although he had asked the butler to take the business card, he did not agree immediately.
She asked hesitantly, “Old Master Li, won’t you help me?”
The butler replied, “Miss Zhang, the old master has advised you not to use the back door. Little Master hates people who use the back door. If you really like Little Master, don’t think of any shortcuts. Be more grounded.”
After a pause, he continued, “You know that, yet you’re asking the old master to inform you if Little Master is around. Isn’t this destroying the relationship between the two of them? Do you understand?”
Zhang Nuannuan replied, “I understand. I didn’t think things through,”
She was furious. A lousy butler dared to speak like this. He was really asking for trouble.
However, this was the Li family’s territory, and she couldn’t do anything about it.
“It’s good that you understand, Miss Zhang,” said the butler with a smile.
“Then I’ll take my leave now,” she replied with a gloomy face.
Watching her leave, Old Master Li said, “Take a guess. How much of her words are true?”
“She probably wants to get close to Little Master, but I’m not sure about the rest,” the butler said seriously.
Old Master Li replied with a smile, “You, you’re getting more and more cunning as you get older,”
The butler coughed lightly and said, “I’m just telling the truth. I’m afraid Miss Zhang isn’t that easy to deal with.”
Old Master Li nodded in agreement.
“However, Miss Zhang must have been with Little Master before,” the butler continued. “Otherwise, she wouldn’t have dared to say that she’s his girlfriend and came here to find him.”
“That’s right,” Old Master Li gloated. “That little bastard Li Yu actually had a girlfriend. I’m really surprised. I wonder if the Jiang girl will kick him away if she finds out.”
The corners of the butler’s mouth twitched. No wonder Little Master was unwilling to come and stay here. With his own father aiming to see him embarrass himself every day, nobody would be able to stand it.
Old Master Li stood up and said, “This girl from the Zhang family is obviously spoiled and has a bad temper. She can’t stand being wronged. She’s not suitable to be our family’s daughter-in-law.”
The butler frowned, “But isn’t it a trend now for the current woman to lose once the former one cries?”
“Old man,” Old Master Li said mockingly, “You’re quite trendy. The key is, is there a genuine problem between the current and the former women?”
After a pause, he continued. “This question depends on how the man thinks. If there’s no love, even if the ex cries herself to death, the current one wouldn’t lose..”
