The daughter of a general is so cool in the novel about a wealthy family

The wind blew, raindrops fell, and the ground gradually became wet. Li Ran came to his senses, and after he figured it out, he was no longer so conflicted.

She stood up and sat on the sofa next to Li Ci, taking a sip of the second cup of tea, the fragrance of the tea slid down her throat into her stomach.

There are constant push notifications on my phone, which are comment notifications on hot topics.

Li Ran looked at Li Ci, who remained calm, and said, "Uncle, do you think Yuan Shu did this on purpose? The Shi family wants to put the blame on us."

Li Ci asked, "Chu Mei didn't say anything."

"But the comments are still about our family. If this topic continues to get heated, it will be bad. Originally everyone's attention was on Shi Xiao, but now it's all focused on us. Don't you think it's weird?"

Li Ci poured out the tea and said, "Strange? Can you prove that this was done by the Shi family? Maybe someone deliberately made us suspect the Shi family."

Li Ran was a little puzzled. The reason why her uncle had a good relationship with Shi Xiao was because Shi Xiao had helped her when her uncle needed her the most. The two became friends because of their similar values. In addition to business cooperation, they also had a lot of interactions in private.

After Shi Xiao disappeared, Li Ci went to Africa to look for him, but he did not pay much attention to the Shi family. He only had a few exchanges with Shi's secretary Zhao Mian because the two were business partners.

Li Ran knew his uncle's character very well. He was always cold-blooded and would rather kill someone innocently than let him go. There were many business tycoons who wanted to get close to the Li family. If it weren't for Shi Xiao, there would be no need to have anything to do with the Shi family. If it had nothing to do with him, he would just watch the show from afar.

Moreover, this matter is full of doubts. Under normal circumstances, Li Ci would not speak for the Shi family.

Li Ran thought about this and asked, "Why did my uncle suddenly help the Shi family? Even if the Shi family didn't do this, it's related to the Shi family."

Li Ci disagreed. "If the Shi family has a new owner, there is really no need to cooperate with them. But Yuan Shu is not a fool. She will not do anything behind the scenes."

Li Ran was a little surprised. Her proud uncle rarely praised others, especially a woman. The last time she heard him praise someone like this was when he was praising Shi Xiao.

At that time, Shi Xiao was not married yet, and Li Ci joked that he hoped Li Ran would marry Shi Xiao, but Li Ran made a big fuss about it.

After hearing what Li Ci said, Li Ran teased, "I don't know whether Yuan Shu is broad-minded or not, but this woman is indeed amazing. You have only met her twice and she has already received your praise. She must be an amazing person."

Li Ci ignored her teasing and just savored the tea.

The phone rang, Li Ci picked it up and pressed the hands-free button. The voice on the other end of the phone had the charm of a young girl, the tone was gentle but a little solemn.

Hearing this voice, Li Ci's first reaction was that he had actually forgotten that Yuan Shu was just a young woman in her early twenties, but she was very calm and humble in her dealings with others.

Yuan Shu said, "Mr. Li, I don't know if you are free now. I want to talk to you in person."

Li Ci smiled politely, "You invited me, so I have time. Tell me where to meet, and we'll see you in half an hour."

"Okay." Yuan Shu chose a cafe she was familiar with, the place she and Liu Fangyu had been to before. After telling Li Ci the location, she hung up the phone and went to the cafe.

Li Ran's eyes were full of sarcasm. He finally found an opportunity to tease his uncle. "It turns out that no man can resist the charm of a beautiful woman. No matter who it is, the honey trap is a good method."

However, Li Ci did not mind her ridicule. Instead, he smiled and reminded her, "I think you should find a lawyer now and discuss the divorce with Gao Shan. Don't let others take advantage of you and put you at a disadvantage."

Li Ran glared at Li Ci fiercely. "Got it!"

The two arrived at the same time, smiled at each other after getting off the car, and walked into the cafe together.

The purpose of this meeting was very clear, and without saying much, Yuan Shu spoke directly.

"Mr. Li, although this matter was not done by our family, it is more or less related to us. What do you plan to do? The Shi family will definitely cooperate with us fully."

Li Ci picked up the coffee in front of him. The deeply roasted coffee beans exuded a rich aroma.

He looks gentle and elegant, with a naturally upturned mouth corner, and even his facial features are very soft. He seems easy to get along with, but the pair of gold-framed glasses on his nose give people a gentle feeling.

At this moment, the corners of his mouth were slightly raised, and it was unclear whether he was really smiling or his lips were just like that.

He said, "Nothing."

"Oh, really?"

After the coffee went down his throat, the aroma of fruit floated in his mouth. Li Ci explained, "The more you suppress it, the more anxious people will be. If you ignore it, they will no longer care about it, and new topics will appear immediately to suppress this hot topic."

Yuan Shu imitated Li Ci and smelled the coffee, but still did not drink it. Instead, he put it down.

She forgot that in this era, the information people received was too complicated and they had no energy to pay attention to a single piece of news. As long as something happened to divert their attention, Chu Mei's matter would eventually come to nothing.

It seems that a developed intelligence network has both advantages and disadvantages. Although it collects information faster than spies, the amount of information is too large and the authenticity of the content also needs to be verified. Yuan Shu learned a lesson again.

She reminded herself in her heart that when doing other things in the future, she should abandon her old ideas and think about problems with modern thinking.

She stopped nagging about this topic and smiled generously, "Mr. Li, I have something else to talk to you about this time. I want to talk to you openly and honestly."

"Really?" Li Ci pushed the edge of his gold-rimmed glasses with his middle finger, looked up at Yuan Shu and said, "Madam, please speak."

"Mr. Li, you are a smart man. You must have seen that today's farce is to sow discord. What I want to tell you is that I hope that before my husband comes back, our two families can trust each other and continue to cooperate like when my husband was in the Shi family."

Li Ci did not agree immediately, but asked Yuan Shu a few questions.

"Mrs. Shi, do you know what kind of cooperation Shi Xiao and I have had?"

"I do not know."

"Let me ask again, did you know that there is a profit-sharing method when we cooperate?"

"I do not know."

"Okay, let me change the question. How much do you know about the Shi Group?"

“I know very little about it.”

Li Ci was amused by the woman in front of him. He thought she had done her homework and knew everything from Zhao Mian before coming to him. He didn't expect her to be so ignorant. He overestimated her.

"Mrs. Shi, how can I cooperate with the Shi family if you don't know anything?"

Yuan Shu smiled and faced the other party's question without showing any panic.

"How you cooperate with the Shi family and how the Shi family operates has nothing to do with me. It will be the same in the future as how the Li family cooperated with the Shi family in the past. I believe that with Secretary Zhao's ability, it can be handled without my intervention. Don't you think that the fewer people who know about the affairs of the two families, the better?"

Yuan Shu adjusted his sitting posture and straightened his back.
