Chapter 1026: Opportunities Rely on Yourself
Zhao Ziqiu was taken aback by his mother's words.
She naturally understood the content of her mother's words. She was not surprised that her mother would interfere in her and Li Mu's affairs, but she never thought that her mother would single-handedly manipulate Su Yingxue to go abroad as an exchange student.
Zhao Ziqiu suddenly became nervous, and hurriedly asked, "Mom, did you find Su Yingxue??"
Zhao Ziqiu was afraid that her mother would go to Su Yingxue behind her back for her and Li Mu's affairs. She had seen too many bloody dramas like this in romance dramas, whether it was her mother going to Su Yingxue, telling her about herself and Li Mu, or forcing her to leave Li Mu. , or if her mother wrote a huge check to Su Yingxue to induce her to leave Li Mu, she couldn't accept it.
For Zhao Ziqiu, she naturally hopes that one day Su Yingxue can withdraw from Li Mu's emotional world, but she can't accept the help of other external forces to achieve this goal, especially involving her family, even if Su Yingxue really withdraws , I am also very sad about the level in my heart. The most important thing is Li Mu. If Li Mu knew that his family was using some means to make Su Yingxue leave her, one day in the future, if Li Mu knew everything, he would definitely blame himself.
Xie Yun heard the nervousness in Zhao Ziqiu's voice, and said with relief: "Don't worry, Mom has her own way of doing things. It's impossible for me to go to Su Yingxue to let her leave Li Mu. Even if it takes a lot of trouble, I can't lose the principle."
Zhao Ziqiu hurriedly asked her, "What the hell is going on then?"
Xie Yun said: "I asked your uncle to help me to initiate a small project in cooperation with the National People's Congress at Harvard, and gave eight exchange student places for the second year of the School of Economics of Renmin University of China, and then gave one of the places to a foreign teacher from the National People's Congress. That foreign teacher gave Su Yingxue the place again."
After speaking, Xie Yun said again: "Su Yingxue has voluntarily accepted this quota now, and Mom will naturally handle things without leakage, so you don't have to worry that Li Mu will find out one day."
Zhao Ziqiu said inexplicably anxiously: "Mom, I feel very awkward..."
"What's wrong?" Xie Yun couldn't help but ask, "Are you feeling bad about it?"
"A little..." Zhao Ziqiu pursed his lips and said, "I can't help but feel a little ashamed, but deep down I'm a little happy, it's too contradictory."
Xie Yun instructed: "You don't need to think wildly, let alone conflict, Su Yingxue went to the United States is her own choice, her mother just gave her a chance to make her own choice, so you don't have any psychological burden."
Having said that, Xie Yun added: "And her going to the United States does not mean that she will break up with Li Mu, and my mother is not helping you solve your emotional problems. My mother is just helping you buy a time window where you can concentrate on dealing with the problem, so she can You can't seize this opportunity and it's not mine. If half a year later, you and Li Mu don't have a clear statement, then the day Su Yingxue returns from Harvard is the day you leave for Harvard. Mom is not discussing this with you. But let you know in advance, understand?"
"I understand……"
Xie Yun said: "Mom won't tell you too much, you have to weigh and grasp many things yourself."
"I know mom..."
After hanging up the phone, Zhao Ziqiu's deep sense of guilt was relieved a lot, but great pressure also followed.
I originally wanted to stay by Li Mu's side without any prestige. Anyway, I was young and I had time to accompany him and wait for him.
But I didn't expect it to be exposed, so that my mother intervened strongly in this matter. According to my mother, I only have half a year. If the half year is up, Li Mu has not broken up with Su Yingxue, nor has he clearly been with him, then he must To leave Li Mu, there is definitely no room for negotiation.
Just when Zhao Ziqiu was in a trance, a Mercedes-Benz S-Class car stopped beside Zhao Ziqiu, the window was down, and it was Li Mu who was sitting in the car.
Although the car was parked beside Zhao Ziqiu, Zhao Ziqiu didn't notice it in the first few seconds, but stared at his toes in a daze, until Li Mu coughed in the car and asked her with a smile, "What are you dumbfounded? Woolen cloth?"
Only then did Zhao Ziqiu come back to his senses. He looked up at Li Mu and was stunned for half a second. He immediately reacted, and hurriedly opened the car door and sat in.
As soon as Zhao Ziqiu got into the car, Li Mu could see that she was unnatural, not only dodging her eyes, but also sitting a bit like she was sitting on pins and needles, so she couldn't help but ask her, "What happened just now?"
Zhao Ziqiu hurriedly replied, "It's okay, I just remembered something and was a little distracted..." After speaking, he quickly changed the subject and asked him, "Where are we going to eat?"
Li Mu smiled and said, "Have you been confused? Didn't you just say on the phone that you want to eat hairy crabs?"
"Oh yes, I'm a little confused at the moment..." Zhao Ziqiu suddenly remembered that he had told Li Mu that he wanted to eat crabs on the phone before, and Li Mu agreed, but was disturbed by a phone call from his mother, and he felt a mess in his heart. , I can't remember anything.
Li Mu shook his head helplessly, laughed and joked: "With your brain, I really don't know how you got into Yan University."
Zhao Ziqiu stuck out his tongue: "I was thinking about something just now, so I was a little absent-minded."
Li Mu asked, "Thinking about something so focused."
Zhao Ziqiu said, "I miss you. You will go to the United States tomorrow. I don't know how long it will take to see you. By the way, how long are you going this time?"
Li Mu said: "It is estimated that it will take ten days and a half to stay, depending on the progress of the matter."
"Oh..." Zhao Ziqiu nodded to himself, wanting to ask something, but finally gave up.
Li Mu drove Zhao Ziqiu to a well-known restaurant in Yanjing for eating hairy crabs, and the two asked for a private room with a quiet environment.
A child like Zhao Ziqiu, who grew up in Jiangsu and Zhejiang and has a wealthy family, eats hairy crabs in autumn every year, just like Li Mu eats watermelon in summer when he was a child, and he is addicted. But every time I am happy to accompany Zhao Ziqiu, I also have a sense of accomplishment seeing her satisfied eating.
At the dinner table, Zhao Ziqiu always wanted to find an opportunity to ask Li Mu about Su Yingxue, but several times she had this thought, and she held back. She was worried that if she asked too much, Li Mu would be suspicious, and her mother would let Su Yingxue go abroad. The matter of being an exchange student is now a done deal, so I can't let him know what I say.
After the meal was almost done, Zhao Ziqiu asked Li Mu, "By the way, what time is your flight tomorrow?"
Li Mu said, "It's half past ten in the morning."
Zhao Ziqiu asked again, "Where are you flying? How long will it take?"
Li Mu said: "Seattle, it takes about 12 hours to fly, and it will land around 7:30 in the morning local time."
Zhao Ziqiu looked at Li Mu and asked, "Do you want me to take you off?"
Li Mu smiled slightly and said, "There are several colleagues with me tomorrow. If you don't mind, it's fine."
Zhao Ziqiu stuck out his tongue and said with a smile, "I forgot that you definitely won't be going to the United States alone, so I won't send you off, so as not to cause you trouble."
Saying that, Zhao Ziqiu looked at Li Mu affectionately with his big eyes, and said with a bit of shyness, "I can't send you tomorrow, can I change it to tonight?"
...
In the early morning of the next day, when Li Mu woke up in the villa of Ziyun Villa, Zhao Ziqiu, who was still by his side last night, was nowhere to be seen.
After getting up, Li Mu realized that Zhao Ziqiu got up early and was preparing breakfast for himself in the kitchen downstairs.
Zhao Ziqiu was wearing a Li Mu white shirt, with two straight and slender legs openly naked. The white shirt was obviously too big on her body, the shoulders were loose and loose, the sleeves were also long, and the hem was just right. After the thigh, although the clothes did not fit well, it made Li Mu feel inexplicably moved.
If you look closely, you can see that in the white shirt on Zhao Ziqiu's body, there is only a thin strip of lace around the waist. There is nothing on the upper body except the white shirt, and the slightly curly long hair is scattered on the shoulders, no matter how you look at it. Makes it feel impeccable.
Zhao Ziqiu didn't know that his unintentional dressing up was Li Mu's favorite, no one.
I don't know where he developed the bad taste, Li Mu especially likes the way a woman wears a man's shirt, it's really a different kind of beauty.
When Zhao Ziqiu heard the movement, he turned around and saw Li Mu standing outside the kitchen door. He smiled sweetly and said, "Wake up! It's time to eat!"
Li Mu stepped forward, gently embraced her waist from behind, put his head on her shoulder, looked at the two fried eggs still sizzling in the pan, and asked her, "Why do you get up so early?"
Zhao Ziqiu used a shovel to carefully move the fried egg in the pot, and kissed Li Mu's cheek lightly, "You have a plane at 10:30 in the morning, why should you go out at 7:30 or 8? There is no one around here. A breakfast seller, can't go to the airport hungry, right? I saw bread, bacon and eggs in the refrigerator, and they were all fresh, so I fried the bacon and eggs, and the bread was in the toaster, already baked , you can eat it later."
Li Mu couldn't help but exclaimed: "It seems that our eldest lady will soon become a little cook."
Just as he was talking, the phone rang and the caller was Li Ziwei, Li Mu's assistant.
Li Mu said to Zhao Ziqiu, "I'll take a call first."
Zhao Ziqiu nodded: "Go, come in for dinner in five minutes."
Li Mu walked out of the kitchen and answered the phone. Li Ziwei's voice came and asked him, "Mr. Li, are you up yet?"
Li Mu said, "I got up, what's the arrangement for today?"
Li Ziwei said: "The convoy is downstairs in my house. I will set off with them immediately, pick up everyone else first, and then pick you up."
After speaking, Li Ziwei asked Li Mu, "Where are you now?"
Li Mu said, "I'm at Ziyun Villa, but you don't have to pick me up. I'll drive to the airport by myself."
...
ps: I will take a rest tomorrow and take four days off in one breath, so I am very busy today. In the four days starting tomorrow, at least three days are guaranteed to be three shifts.
