She hadn't forgotten about that very, very outstanding girl who might come to snatch her husband away anytime.
Lin Yuzhen wasn't going to let that happen.
When Jiang Ning saw how Lin Yuzhen was behaving like a child, he just laughed and didn't say anything. He didn't interrupt her and walked out of the room.
Of course Jiang Ning knew why Su Mei's relatives wanted to come.
Lin Group was now expanding at a rapid speed and Lin Group was the most famous company in all of Donghai. It didn't matter whether you lived in the city, the countryside or even a village - anyone with a child working in Lin Group would celebrate.
Su Hong had insisted that her mother with mobility problems come to visit the Lin family. Even an idiot could tell what she was after.
Su Mei was watching TV on the sofa in the living room.
When she saw Jiang Ning come downstairs, she looked up and asked, "Is Yuzhen busy?"
"Yup. She's working on the company expansion plans. They're very important so I don't want to disturb her."
"Come over here and sit down with me."
Su Mei pushed the tidbits to Jiang Ning, then picked up an apple and said, "I'll pare an apple for you.”
"Thanks Mum."
Jiang Ning sat down and leaned back on the sofa. He had a tired expression and he frowned as he massaged his own temples and exhaled deeply.
He looked like he had just travelled a few thousand miles earlier. His eyes were bloodshot and he was exhausted.
"Are you very tired?" Su Mei felt her heart go out to him.
Jiang Ning had contributed so much to the family.
If not for Jiang Ning, her family would probably never have the chance to live so happily.
"A little," Jiang Ning squeezed a smile out. "But as long as our family is happy, all the work is worth it."
"You're such a good boy.”
Su Mei felt tears come to her eyes."
"I used to hate seeing you so much, do you think..."
"That was because you didn't understand what sort of person I was and you were afraid I would bully Yuzhen. Now you know all about me, and you know only Yuzhen gets to bully me," said Jiang Ning with a laugh.
"She wouldn't dare!" Su Mei scoffed. "If Yuzhen bullies you, tell me and I'll teach her a lesson!"
Jiang Ning burst out laughing. He wondered if Lin Yuzhen was sneezing away now.
"Did you meet with any trouble when you went to Shenghai?"
"A little," Jiang Ning sighed. "Lin Group wants to expand, and they'll have to enter a big city like Shengcheng sooner or later. I went to test the market there and I accidentally offended some people."
Jiang Ning saw that Su Mei had finished paring the apple, so he took it from her and started eating it. "Mum, go to bed early. I'll go to bed after eating the apple too, I'm a little sleepy."
He then ate the apple and dragged his heavy footsteps up the stairs at the same time.
Su Mei felt her heart ache as she saw how exhausted Jiang Ning looked.
Meanwhile.
At Su Hong's house.
She was rummaging through her closet and there was glee written all over her face.
"Which dress looks nicer on me?"
Su Hong stood in front of the mirror and put one dress after another against herself.
"We're not attending some banquet, why do you bother at all."
Xu Ming snorted loudly.
He had been so shocked by Lin Yuzhen the last time. He never expected Lin Group to be doing so well now. Even those high ranking government officials were so
polite to Lin Yuzhen.
He thought that he would get a dressing down when he went to work, but the highest ranking official of his office actually came over to say hello to him the next day!
