After the divorce, I became a rich girl

When Jing Qiu heard what Li Ronghua said, his tense mood instantly relaxed. The corners of his mouth couldn't help but rise, and he burst out laughing.

She raised her hand to wipe away the remaining tears on her face and said with feigned anger: "You are so old, and you still say sweet words to coax me. Aren't you afraid of being laughed at?" But the smile between her eyebrows clearly showed her joy that could not be concealed.

Li Ronghua saw his wife's mood improve, and he also smiled, and said with a smug look on his face: "Of course, if I hadn't used some tricks and said something sweet, how could I have married a talented and beautiful woman like you?"

As he spoke, he stood up gently, held Jing Qiu's arms with both hands, gently pulled her up from the bed, and coaxed her: "Get up quickly, have some breakfast, and replenish your energy. After eating, I will accompany you to get a massage, relax, and have a good sleep to drive away the fatigue of the past two days."

On the other hand, on the night of He Zhizhou and Li Xuanbao's marriage proposal, the two of them simply packed up and went to Li Yan's house together.

When Zhong Xinlan saw He Zhizhou and Li Xuanbao coming together, her face was instantly filled with a warm smile. She hurried forward and said with a smile: "Oh, congratulations to the two lovers for finally getting married!" Her tone was full of sincere blessings.

In fact, Zhong Xinlan has a complicated feeling towards Li Xuanbao. In order to stay in the Li family, Li Xuanbao chose to deliberately conceal some things, which made Zhong Xinlan look down on her.

However, after leaving the Li family, Li Xuanbao was able to carve out a career for herself through her own efforts, which made Zhong Xinlan admire her from the bottom of her heart.

Moreover, at home, Li Yan often praised Li Xuanbao in front of Zhong Xinlan for her unique vision and talent in investment.

Seeing that Li Xuanbao is now successful in her career and has a happy love life with He Zhizhou, Zhong Xinlan is envious of her.

Li Yan's enthusiasm was completely different from his wife's. He sat quietly on the sofa, looking coldly at He Zhizhou and Li Xuanbao who came in. There was no smile on his face, and he was tense and didn't say a word. The atmosphere seemed a little awkward.

When Li Xuanbao saw Li Yan's appearance, her originally uneasy heart relaxed.

She gently let go of He Zhizhou's hand, with a smile on her face, and walked briskly to sit beside Li Yan. Then, she naturally took Li Yan's arm, gently rested her head on his shoulder, and asked in a gentle and coquettish tone: "Hey, are you angry?"

Li Yan raised the corner of his mouth slightly, and sneered, saying unhappily: "Angry? What can I be angry about?"

As soon as he finished speaking, he turned his gaze to He Zhizhou, with a bit of dissatisfaction and reproach in his eyes, and said unhappily: "One is my good brother for many years, and the other is my beloved sister. For such an important event, you two didn't even invite me. Am I not qualified to participate?"

Li Xuanbao raised her eyes slightly and glanced at He Zhizhou quietly, with a hint of expectation in her eyes, signaling him to quickly comfort Li Yan who was angry.

He Zhizhou understood what he meant, walked to the single sofa next to him and sat down, saying, "Li Yan, Xuanbao and I rushed here right after the dinner at home. We were afraid that you would think too much and feel unhappy."

Li Yan frowned slightly, turned his gaze away from He Zhizhou, and looked at Li Xuanbao, and asked seriously: "Xuanbao, I want to hear your thoughts. Have you discussed such an important matter with your family? Who did you tell?"

After hearing what Li Yan said, Li Xuanbao showed a bitter smile on her face. She shook her head gently and said self-deprecatingly: "How could I have the qualifications!" There was a hint of helplessness and loneliness in her voice.

Li Yan frowned when he heard what Li Xuanbao said, and said, "What do you mean by whether you are qualified or not? Are all the kindness your family has shown you over the years fake? Or do you really intend to cut off contact with your family and never have any contact with them again?"

As Li Xuanbao listened to Li Yan's questioning, the grievances in her heart suddenly surged up like a tide. She turned her head away angrily, unwilling to look Li Yan in the eye.

Her eyes instantly turned red, tears welled up in them, and her voice was choked with sobs: "It was obviously you who distanced yourself from me first. You have been indifferent to me all these years, and now you blame me!"

Li Yan looked at Li Xuanbao's aggrieved look, and his heart softened. He sighed helplessly, and his tone softened. He said, "Don't mention the past anymore, it's all over. I have always treated you as my own sister, and it has never changed.

But if you really don’t want to acknowledge me as your big brother, then… then there’s nothing I can do.”

Li Xuanbao quickly turned her head and stared at Li Yan with an angry look on her face. She said, "I didn't say I didn't recognize you. It's you who, ever since you had a biological sister, you have forgotten about me, your fake sister. How can you still have a place for me in your heart?" There was a hint of resentment in her eyes.

Li Yan looked at Li Xuanbao's stubborn and aggrieved look, and couldn't help but burst out laughing. Then, he reached out his hand, gently pinched Li Xuanbao's face, and said in a friendly tone: "How can I not recognize you?"

"It's you!" Li Xuanbao felt pain and showed some pain on her face. She quickly reached out and patted the back of Li Yan's hand, asking him to let go: "Let go! You have pinched my face since I was a child. You have pinched my face so much that it has become big."

Zhong Xinlan came over with the brewed flower tea and said, "I made some flower tea, come and try it."

After hearing what Zhong Xinlan said, Li Yan let go of Li Xuanbao's hand, turned his head to look at He Zhizhou, deliberately put on a stern face, and said half-jokingly: "Zhizhou, you have to take good care of Xuanbao. She hits people at every turn and has a bad temper."

Li Xuanbao was immediately unhappy when she heard this and retorted: "It was you who pinched me first. If you hadn't pinched me, would I have hit you? You are just putting the blame on someone else!"

Looking at Li Yan and Li Xuanbao being so close to each other, it seemed as if the emotional barrier between them was repaired little by little in the back and forth playfulness.

Li Yan thought of something, looked at Li Xuanbao, and asked seriously, "Then how are you going to tell your parents about your marriage to the prefect?"

Li Xuanbao put down the teacup in her hand: "The governor and I are going to go abroad and talk to my parents in person. Some things are better explained in person."

After hearing what Li Xuanbao said, Li Yan smiled and said, "You are lucky that you have a conscience. You know that you have to tell your parents about this kind of important matter in person. If you don't even tell them about this kind of important matter, they will be really heartbroken."

Li Jiawei stood outside the door carrying two boxes of cakes and listened to the laughter inside.
