Seeing Su Qing's hands full of things, Yan Dongjun hurried forward and said, "Where are you going? I can take you there."

"No need." Su Qing smiled and said, "These things may look a lot, but they are not heavy. I can go back by myself."

"Let me take you there. I'll be passing by your hotel today, so it's just on my way." Yan Dongjun said with a smile, "We are all friends, so there's no need to be so formal."

Su Qing smiled and said, "Okay, I'll trouble Brother Yan then."

"Too polite."

Yan Dongjun took the things from Su Qing's hand with a smile, and the two of them walked towards the jeep not far away.

Not far away, an old lady was looking at Su Qing in a daze, with some surprise in her eyes.

"Mom, what's wrong?" Seeing the old lady in a daze, Shang Yuqi asked.

"Nothing, just..." It was as if I saw myself when I was younger.

The person who spoke was Shang Yuqi's mother-in-law, Li Huan's grandmother, Old Lady Li. Shang Yuqi was taking a day off today, and Old Lady Li happened to want to go out for a walk, so the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law came to the department store.

"Ah?" Shang Yuqi was a little confused when she heard that.

"Nothing, let's go in." Old Mrs. Li turned her head and looked in the direction of Su Qing. At this time, Su Qing had already got on the jeep. She didn't see Su Qing again. She just thought that she might be old and her eyesight was blurry, so she put the matter aside. Then, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law entered the department store.

When they entered the department store, Li Yuan just came out of the office and ran into Old Lady Li and Shang Yuqi. Li Yuan hurriedly smiled and said, "Mom, you came to the department store today."

After saying that, he smiled and greeted Shang Yuqi.

When Mrs. Li saw Li Yuan, her expression turned calm: "I am just here to hang out with your sister-in-law. Don't worry about me. Just go and do your own thing."

"Let me accompany you." Li Yuan said with a smile.

"No, it's your working hours, it's not a good time to do personal things." Mrs. Li shook her head and said, "Go and do your thing."

"Mom..." Li Yuan felt a little aggrieved. In front of so many subordinates, she felt that Old Madam Li really didn't give her face. She felt that her face was simply pressed to the ground and stepped on by Old Madam Li. What mother would be so disrespectful to her daughter in public?

Old Mrs. Li frowned.

Shang Yuqi on the side hurriedly said: "Xiaoyuan, you should take care of your things first. Mom doesn't want to delay your work."

"Well, Mom, sister-in-law, you two can take your time shopping." Shang Yuqi gave Li Yuan a way out, and Li Yuan quickly took advantage of the situation and said, "Then I'll go and do my own thing first."

Old Mrs. Li nodded lightly.

Li Yuan pursed her lips, smiled awkwardly, nodded to Shang Yuqi, and hurried back to her office.

Seeing Li Yuan leave, Shang Yuqi whispered to Old Lady Li: "Mom, Xiaoyuan also has good intentions."

Shang Yuqi didn't understand why. Her mother-in-law treated her two daughters-in-law better than her own daughter. This was the opposite of what other families did. Moreover, not only was Mrs. Li always indifferent to Li Yuan, she was also indifferent to Li Yuan's children.

It's not right to say that Mrs. Li has no feelings for her grandchildren. The old lady loves her own children and her second uncle's children, especially her daughter Li Huan, very much.

"During working hours, you should work and not do personal things." Mrs. Li said lightly.

Shang Yuqi sighed inwardly when she heard this, and said nothing more. She followed Old Lady Li and slowly walked around the department store.

When Li Yuan returned to the office, she felt more and more suffocated the more she thought about it. After thinking for a while, she closed the office door and then made a phone call.

"Xiaoyuan." It was Li Aiguo on the other end of the phone.

Li Yuan said angrily in a low voice: "Brother, you told me during the Chinese New Year that you would deal with that matter. It's been almost two months. What's going on over there?"

Whenever Li Yuan thought of Su Qing's existence, she felt uncomfortable. She was even more afraid that if Su Qing really met the Li family one day and the Li family found out something, it would be troublesome.

"I want it to be quick." Li Aiguo was also depressed. He had already thought of a safe way to deal with this matter, but it required him to go to the Northeast in person. As luck would have it, he broke his leg during the Chinese New Year. As the saying goes, it takes a hundred days to heal a broken bone. His leg hasn't healed yet, so naturally he can't go to the Northeast: "You know, my leg hasn't healed yet."

Li Yuan frowned and said, "Not well yet?"

"You know I fell pretty badly." After hearing what Li Yuan said, Li Aiguo was a little angry and felt that Li Yuan was too disrespectful to him. However, thinking that he still had to get benefits from Li Yuan, he hurriedly said, "Xiaoyuan, don't worry. When my leg is healed in a few days, I will go to the Northeast to take care of this matter. Don't worry, I promise it won't affect you."

"Okay then, take good care of your legs first." Li Yuan pursed her lips and said, "Remember, don't leave any more trouble this time."

"Don't worry, I promise I won't leave any."

After hanging up the phone, Li Yuan leaned back in her chair, took a deep breath in an irritable mood, picked up the cup of water on the table and took a big sip of water. As a result, she accidentally choked. She was so angry that she slammed the cup on the table with a loud noise. The water in the cup spilled out and splashed all over her hand.

"How annoying!" Li Yuan muttered irritably, and quickly took out a handkerchief to wipe her hands, then threw the handkerchief on the table feeling unsatisfied.

Outside the department store, Su Qing got into a jeep and found that there was a man sitting in the car.

The man looked to be about the same age as Yan Dongjun. After seeing Su Qing, he first nodded to Su Qing in a friendly manner, and then glanced at Yan Dongjun with a secret smile.

Yan Dongjun understood what his friend meant in a second. He smiled and punched his friend on the shoulder, then said to Su Qing, "Let me introduce you. This is my good friend Song Jifei."

After that, he introduced Su Qing to Song Jifei: "This is Su Qing, a good friend of Bei Ze's sister. She came to Beijing to do something. We had dinner together yesterday."

Song Jifei looked at Su Qing with a smile: "Nice to meet you, Comrade Su."

Su Qing also responded with a smile.

Yan Dongjun thought of something, and said to Su Qing: "By the way, Su Qing, I'm not in the city these days. If you need my help with anything these days, you can call this number."

As he spoke, Yan Dongjun handed Su Qing a note with a phone number on it.

Su Qing didn't need Yan Dongjun's help, but she appreciated his kindness. After taking the note with the phone number, she asked casually, "Are you going out?"
