Urban Life: I Just Want To Work Hard!

Chapter 224: Colluding with Each Other

"You!" Yun Xiaoyue felt a surge of anger.

"Do you really think your mother misses you so much that she asked you to come back?" Li Mubai exposed the truth directly.

Yun Xiaoyue was stunned for a moment, and then suddenly understood.

She knew that without her father's consent, her mother had no right to invite herself and Li Mubai to their home for a meal.

Thinking about the troubles of Huahai Group now, Yun Xiaoyue vaguely guessed the purpose of this "Hongmen Banquet"!

But while her heart felt cold, she worried that her mother would be blamed for it, so she frowned and said, "So we won't see each other forever?"

"We will definitely meet, but only when your father shows sincerity," Li Mubai pointed out the key point. He glanced at Yun Xiaoyue's worried expression and then softened his tone. "Don't worry, we have the initiative now. Your father is just being stubborn. When the situation becomes more complicated, he will let go of his pride."

"Isn't the situation already complicated enough?" Yun Xiaoyue asked curiously.

"It's complicated, but it will only get more complicated," Li Mubai analyzed. "The current retirement home project is only in its initial stage, and it has already caused so much trouble. How much more trouble it will cause in the future will be worth discussing. If our reputation is further damaged, if the funding becomes tight and the banks stop lending, then everything will be in vain."

"Of course, before that happens, your father will do whatever it takes to solve the current problems, but it may come at a great cost. If he can figure it out, he will know that working with me is the best choice."

With Yun Xiaoyue's intelligence and emotional intelligence, she naturally understood what Li Mubai was planning.

But she also thought of her father's prideful temperament. Being challenged like this would definitely make him furious.

She hoped it wouldn't hurt her mother.

Li Mubai seemed to guess her worries and said, "If you want to improve your mother's and your position in the Yun family, I advise you to stay calm. To be honest, sometimes you and your mother are too submissive, which is why your father and sister can suppress you so miserably."

Yun Xiaoyue's heart was moved when she heard this, and she thought sadly, "If I hadn't been submissive, I wouldn't have married you."

Of course, she also agreed with Li Mubai's point of view. Only by proving her own value could she earn her father's respect and recognition. She didn't have this opportunity before, but now that she did, she had to seize it firmly.

"That's good, I'll listen to you," Yun Xiaoyue said obediently.

"That's right," Li Mubai took another sip of his drink and smiled. "Next, help me trap your father with all your might. Your good days will come."

Yun Xiaoyue was amused and helpless by his teasing. No matter what, she was still a member of the Yun family. This statement was a bit inappropriate.

But when she thought about it, even though she had the surname Yun, the Yun family might not consider her as one of their own. She was just a bargaining chip with some value.

Anyway, both of them were on the same boat. If the boat was safe, there might still be hope. They might as well continue to "collude with each other."

At this moment, Li Mubai's nose suddenly twitched, catching a tempting aroma. He couldn't help but say, "Noodles cooked by you?"

Yun Xiaoyue nodded and pointed in the direction of the dining room. "Do you want to eat? I cooked a bit too much anyway."

Li Mubai really wanted to taste it, but he had just refused. He couldn't change his mind so quickly. "Forget it, I'll have 863 downstairs bring some up for me."

"Whatever you want," Yun Xiaoyue replied without hesitation and walked back to the dining room.

Unfortunately, if she had stayed for another minute, she would have seen the worried expression on Li Mubai's face.

"Sorry, Mr. Li, the chef has already finished work. Otherwise, I would have gone out to buy it for you. What would you like to eat?" The duty manager apologized.
