Pretend To Be a Boss

  Chapter 122 Li Xiaoyu's Important Day (Part 2)

  Accompanied by a team of guards, Li Zheng took Li Xiaoyu to the place where Li Wanye was.

  Li's house is very big. Even though many people related to Tang Xian were placed, it still seemed empty.

   After walking through a promenade with the style of an Italian church in the sixteenth century, you can see a faint house outside the garden.

   That is where Li Wanye usually works.

  Li Zheng came to the yard outside the house and stopped moving forward. Seeing that Li Xiaoyu was just looking at himself, he wanted to say something.

   With just such a glance, Li Zheng was in a daze again, unconsciously feeling that his sister seemed far away from him.

   "What's the matter, looking at me like that?" Li Xiaoyu said.

   "Do you remember what I told you?" Li Zheng said.

   "Remember, don't worry about me, it's yourself. You should be more careful in the future."

   "Me? I have some friendship with Tang Xian, but my father sees it clearly, knows that I can figure it out, and he can get rid of it. He is worried about you, and he is afraid that you still have thoughts about that kid."

  Li Xiaoyu shook his head and said:

   "I'm talking about other aspects, you have to be the leader. You have to be more careful."

   "The answer is not what you asked, okay, let's go in." Li Zheng waved his hand.

  Li Xiaoyu stopped talking, nodded and walked into the house.

  …

  …

   There is a calligraphy in Li Wanye's study, such calligraphy and painting are rarely seen.

   It’s not a profound Zen inscription, it’s just a simple idiom.

  Family and everything prosper.

  He was under the calligraphy and painting, looking at all kinds of news that came from these days.

  Li Xiaoyu sat quietly opposite him.

   "Why don't you talk? You must have a lot of grievances after being locked up for the past few days?" Li Wanye closed the text in his hand and looked at Li Xiaoyu with a smile.

   Seeing Li Wanye stop what he was doing, Li Xiaoyu said:

   "I'm waiting for you to finish."

   "Do you know what I'm busy with?"

   "My marriage."

   "Yes, the Song family gave me the opportunity to open the eighth floor of the Li family, but what I want to change is not my precious daughter, but to end the paper marriage contract. It's really troublesome."

  Li Wanye continued:

   "Song Que is a good kid, but he is a little naive. But it's not a bad thing. When he gets old, he will understand things. It's a pity."

"I do not like him."

   "Isn't this looking for someone from another family? I have to think about it, how about the kid from the Zhong family? That kid is just a little lazy, but the others are pretty good."

   "Father, I don't want to marry. If I must marry, it can only be Tang Xian."

  Li Xiaoyu's tone was very light, without a trace of gunpowder, as if he had reported to Li Wanye in the past.

  Li Wanye was still smiling.

   "Actually, life is life, and feelings are feelings. Look at the blind dates on the second floor. Whenever they get together, they often go farther than those who are in free love."

  Li Wanye picked up a file casually, flipped through it, and continued:

  “There are many things in this world like this, it doesn’t just matter if you like it.”

   "But if you don't like it, you must not do it."

   Li Xiaoyu's sudden words seemed normal to Li Wanye.

   "That's true, at least for the first thirty years of your life, it should be true. Dad doesn't want you to live so old too early."

  Li Wanye's words came from the heart.

  The older a person is, the more inclined he is to the former on the balance between suitability and liking.

  My daughter is still young, whether she likes Tang Xian or Song Que, or even a few young people have privately rejected the engagement, Li Wanye can let go of this kind of thing.

  But Tang Xian was no longer Tang Xian, and some issues became serious.

"He is a creature in the mining area. He does not belong to this world. He has been lurking in the human world for so many years. His purpose and intention are unknown. If a lie can deceive you all your life and everyone in the world, then Forget it."

  Li Wanye looked directly at Li Xiaoyu and said:

   "But he didn't do that. Listen to Dad and forget about him early."

   "Mining creature?" Li Xiaoyu asked calmly.

   "Yes, the content from the stele has been guiding us. Without these steles and the technology in the pyramid, we would have starved to death long ago. It is obvious to all that Tang Xian and that little girl were judged as alien by the pyramid."

  Li Xiaoyu's reaction was still very light, she shook her head and said:

   "Tang Xian, it's just Tang Xian, he's not some Eden Devil Boy. Perhaps most of the steles are true, but at least the judgment about Tang Xian is false."

  Li Wanye was not angry either.

  The father and daughter have completely different opinions, but they are very kind.

  Express your determination and confidence. Sometimes you don’t need to be hysterical, but the calmer you become, the more determined you become.

  Li Wanye found that Li Xiaoyu was still very much like himself.

   "If it weren't for the little girl who turned into a fox, I might believe you. Have you ever thought about how much disaster a catastrophe-level creature can bring in a pyramid fortress?" Li Wanye said.

"Yes. Tang Xian did something wrong. But it doesn't mean he is the enemy of human beings. Since the creatures in the mining area may become human beings, they are human. Maybe what Tang Xian is doing is a little too dependent. Before, but isn’t it trying to make the creatures in the mining area have a good impression of the human world? Have a good impression of humans?”

  Li Xiaoyu didn't give in at all, and she didn't care about Li Zheng's confession.

   "You're talking nonsense that turns black and white."

  Li Wanye's expression finally turned serious,

   "I'm very pleased that my daughter dares to argue with me for the person she likes, because your brother doesn't have the courage, but you can't even forget the entire human history for a man!"

   "Do you know how many people die every year from the creatures in the mining area? How many times have the creatures in the mining area launched attacks on humans? If there is no pyramid, how long can humans last after the catastrophe?"

  Li Xiaoyu stood up and said with a serious expression:

"But what did Tang Xian do wrong? He saved hundreds of hunters. That was a secret that Song Que and my brother had kept silent. He brought soul crystals to the Li family that could walk in front of the world's fortresses. If he really What is Eden Devil Boy, and why did he leave in this way?"

  Li Wanye shook his head and said:

   "It seems I can't convince you."

   "I know, but I can't convince you." Li Xiaoyu calmed down again.

   "Then do you know that if you can't convince me today, or if you are persuaded by me, you won't be able to take half a step in the Li family until you marry another family?"

   "I know." Li Xiaoyu did not back down.

  Li Wanye looked at Li Xiaoyu without saying a word.

  After a long time, he sighed and said:

   "You seem to have been brainwashed by that person."

   "I was brainwashed by him, I just like him, like a bewildered man."

   "If one day, the Li family is in crisis, I firmly believe that he is the one who can bring the Li family out of the crisis. If one day, the world is also in disaster, I also firmly believe that he is the one who can save the world."

  Li Xiaoyu did not forget what Tang Xian said.

  The last woman who was expecting that the person she loves would be an unrivaled hero who would marry on colorful auspicious clouds had already fallen to her death.

  She doesn't understand the story here. She just wanted to know, did that unrivaled hero have that woman in his heart?

  As long as there is, even the abyss can jump.

  On the night before the doomsday creatures invaded the fortress, she saw the softest side of that man on the viewing platform of the third-floor school district.

  In the past six years, Li Xiaoyu has never been so close to Tang Xian's soul.

  She doesn't believe that such a person is an Eden Devil, nor does she believe that such a person is a monster that will destroy the world.

  Li Wanye has read countless people and knows the determination in his daughter's eyes.

  Also always know her daughter's almost crazy attitude in life.

  He waved helplessly and said:

   "Come here, take her down, don't let her come out without my order!"

  Li Xiaoyu was not angry either, she bowed to Li Wanye and said softly:

   "Father, my daughter is gone."

   "Let's go, go back and think about it."

  Li Xiaoyu turned and left.

  Looking at his daughter's back, Li Wanye suddenly felt that it was hard to see him again.

  …

  …

  Li Xiaoyu returned to the yard. She was usually very quiet, like a lazy black cat.

  I am used to such a restricted life.

  During the week of being grounded, only Li Zheng came to see her every other day or two.

  Li Xiaonian also came once. It is to relieve my sister's boredom.

  All of Li Xiaoyu's means of contacting the outside world were cut off.

  Even if they sneak out, there is no way to escape the sixth floor.

  Her identity card has been modified and completely locked by Li Wanye through the authority of the ring.

  Now Li Xiaoyu is just a canary in a gorgeous cage.

   Withdrawing from her identity as the second lady of the Li family, her current available authority and access authority are not even as good as an ordinary person.

   Later, Li Zheng came.

  Talked with Li Xiaoyu, but it turned out to be fruitless, and he was furious when he learned that Li Xiaoyu had ruthlessly contradicted his father.

   Angry at his father for being too ruthless, and at the same time angry at his sister for being too stubborn.

  Li Xiaoyu drove Li Zheng away.

   Later, when the ceiling in the fort began to simulate the night, Li Xiaolai arrived.

  The guards knew Li Xiaonian. When he came last time, he really surprised the guards.

  Although I have heard that the third son of the Li family is a dude, he is ignorant, and he is addicted to heresy all day long.

  But I don't want to have a womanizer.

Today's Li Xiaonian is wearing a light yellow floral dress, beige slim-cut sandals, and his hair is dyed into pink waves. He looks like the second-floor otaku's favorite second Realization of dimensional cartoon images.

  The guards didn't dare to stop them, but they didn't have much time to meet each other.

  Now Li Xiaoyu, it doesn't matter if he is a prisoner.

  When Li Xiaonian walked into the inner courtyard, Li Xiaoyu was writing a letter. A light yellow envelope can still be seen not far away.

  Seeing this scene, Li Xiaonian said in a loud voice:

   "Sister, I'm here to see you."

  Li Xiaoyu trembled slightly, she stopped writing, turned her head, and looked at Li Xiaonian with wide eyes.

  …

  …

  For Li Xiaonian, Li Xiaoyu has been on guard against him since he was sensible.

  Because the father was dissatisfied with being a daughter, he had a younger brother.

  Thinking like this made me, the elder sister, never care about this younger brother.

  Later, Li Xiaonian behaved extremely poorly and absurdly in both academics and other aspects of life, even worse than an ordinary person.

  Li Xiaoyu was even more disgusted, as if he was going all out to defeat a certain fateful opponent, but that person just gave up.

  She hates her brother.

   Until that day, she took Tang Xian to buy clothes and met Li Xiaonian.

  Tang Xian mentioned another possibility that she had never thought of.

  Li Xiaoyu instinctively rejected such a statement.

  But every time I look back on the past, I find that every time Xiaonian looks at himself, he has very gentle eyes.

  During the period of being grounded, what the eldest brother told himself was always to give up.

  Li Xiaonian is different.

  She still remembers the conversation from a few days ago.

   "Sister, don't be sad, I'll make a face for you."

   "Childish, you have to grow up as soon as possible, and stop pretending to be a woman."

   "I don't want it. When I grow up, I have to be as busy as my elder brother. As for playing a woman, sister, just treat me as your younger sister."

   This is a very unpromising remark, but because of what Tang Xian said, Li Xiaoyu couldn't get angry.

   "Sister, do you like Tang Xian very much?"

   "Hmm. Love it."

   "I heard that he was forced to go to the mining area, you must really want to see him?"

   "Then have you heard that he is a monster that may endanger the world."

   "I've heard it, but I don't believe it."

"You do not believe?"

   "I definitely don't believe it. The person who can make my sister like it so much must be a very good person."

  Li Xiaonian said with a bright smile on his face:

   "Besides, after getting to know him, I found that sister, your attitude towards me has changed for the better! He must have said something nice about me, right? Such a person will definitely not be an inhuman monster."

  Li Xiaoyu was stunned at that moment.

  That feeling is like standing on a wilderness that is difficult to cross. I thought there was no one there, but suddenly a companion appeared.

  Li Xiaoyu never cried in those days.

  But when he saw Li Xiaonian's bright and determined smile, he burst into tears instantly.

  She hugged Li Xiaonian and kept saying sorry.

  Li Xiaonian was very happy at first, but when his sister cried, he also burst into tears.

  Li Xiaoyu was finally convinced that everything was just as Tang Xian said.

  Many absurd things have a respectable reason behind them.

  Just like the story Tang Xian told him earlier, that handsome boy pretended to be ugly to please a middle-aged woman.

  Li Xiaonian is just like that boy, with a soul so tender that it makes people feel distressed.

  Thinking about this, Li Xiaoyu felt more and more that he hadn't done a good job as a sister.

  Li Xiaonian happily wiped away tears and said:

   "I believe in my judgment, Tang Xian must be a human being. Sister, do you really want to see him?"

  Li Xiaoyu nodded.

   "I'll help you, you go to see him!"

   "How can you help me?"

"You can leave by pretending to be me. I will give you my identity card and teleportation crack. With these, you can go to Tang Xian, but you have to come back! If it takes too long, you will be banned." found"

  Li Xiaonian's idea is very simple. But Li Xiaoyu thought about it and found that it was unexpectedly feasible.

  Their siblings look alike, if they switch their outfits, it is really possible to go out.

  Then the two discussed it, and they met today.

  Today's nightfall is the time for the younger brother to help the older sister escape the confinement.

  Li Xiaonian kept looking at him after seeing his sister stopped writing letters, and suddenly felt uneasy.

  But Li Xiaoyu's reaction was very calm, everything was as usual, she put the letter paper into the envelope, and sealed the envelope again.

  Li Xiaonian went to change into another outfit, which was the black gothic dress that Li Xiaoyu most often wore in the past.

  When he put on his sister's clothes and looked in the mirror, he found that he was 70% similar to his sister.

  Li Xiaoyu also changed into Li Xiaolai's clothes.

   "I stole this from another courtyard. It is Dongran's portable teleportation rift, which will take you directly to the sea of ​​trees." Li Xiaonian handed the teleportation rift to Li Xiaoyu.

   "Sister, you have to come back. Tang Xian is probably not in Shuhai. If you can't see anyone, come back. Now the stronghold of Shuhai may have been exposed."

  Li Xiaoyu nodded, before leaving, she hugged Li Xiaonian gently.

   "Xiao Nian, thank you."

  Li Xiaonian was a little at a loss.

   After a simple farewell, Li Xiaoyu walked out of the yard where he was confined.

  The costume of a big man in women's clothing was put on Li Xiaoyu, who was already a woman, and under the cover of night, the guards really couldn't tell the difference.

  After leaving Li Mansion, Li Xiaoyu did not go directly to the mining area.

  After the portable teleportation rift is disabled, using such a teleportation rift will immediately trigger positioning feedback.

   That is, the location in the real world will be exposed.

  Li Xiaoyu had a brain second only to Tang Xian when he was in the school district. She didn't use it rashly.

   Right now, she still needs a helper who can shield herself from the real world.

  …

  …

  Li Xiaonian was a little bored playing with her sister's expensive cosmetics.

   Thinking about how to pass the time tonight, although his studies are not very good on weekdays, he has a lot of interests.

  So I thought it would be better to learn from my sister and write.

  As soon as I looked for a pen and paper, I found the envelope lying on the table. On the envelope, it was written personally by Li Xiaonian.

  Li Xiaonian was a little strange, she was here just now, why did her sister leave a letter for herself?

  The uneasy feeling came again, Li Xiaonian shook his head unconsciously, as if thinking of something.

  He hurriedly opened the letter. It was a very long letter, but when he saw the first line, he suddenly froze and the letter fell to the ground.

  —Xiao Nian, I'm sorry, my sister lied to you. The mountains and rivers are too far away, and the time for him to find me is too long. I'm going to look for him, and I won't return.

   When I got home, I finally had a liver change. It's really almost eleven o'clock...
