Li Ying told Li Tianhe about Su Jing’s deduction, and Wang Zhuo called Wang Xuanji to tell him the details.
As Su Jing expected, they both said that they would think long and hard about it, the “Rhapsody on Goddess of Luo Painting” had entered the Japanese museum and the issues involved in this reinforced Su Jing’s idea of making his own move.
Of course, he was not in a hurry and had to think long and hard about it, and the painting was in the Japanese museum so it wouldn’t be going anywhere.
“Mr. Su, can I bother you for a couple of drinks?” At the moment when Wang Zhuo went to make a phone call, Zhao Yuan walked over and said with a smile on his face. Wang Siya, who was standing next to him, had a calm look on her face, while Zheng Nan frowned slightly.
There was no smile on her face tonight. It is probably because of Zhao Yuan. Although she has left the Zheng Family and no longer accepts the marriage, it seems that Zhao Yuan did not stop there.
What do you want to talk about Mr. Zhao?” Su Jing asked knowingly.
“That …… ahem, let’s talk to the side, shall we?” Zhao Yuan spoke as he glanced at Zheng Nan.
“Sister Siya and Miss Zheng are my own people, so let’s talk about whatever you want to talk about here.” Su Jing said.
“Okay.” Zhao Yuan frowned slightly, thinking that this Su Jing was really insensitive, and said in as low a voice as possible, “I heard that Miss Zheng Nan is working as a Sales Manager in your Galactic Cooperation?”
“That’s right.” Su Jing nodded.
“To be honest, I’ve been attracted to Miss Zheng Nan for a long time. Can Mr. Su help me set things up? From now on, we will be buddies. If you need me, I will be able to help you with anything.” Zhao Yuan said.
“Sorry, I don’t interfere in the private life of my business partners.” Su Jing said calmly.
“Mr. Su, don’t be so shameless, it won’t make everyone happy.” Zhao Yuan frowned and said angrily.
He thought that Su Jing had climbed a big tree named Wang Family but did this guy really thought that he was the young master of the Wang Family, why is he so proud of himself. He is a real Zhao Family person, Su Jing does not know what’s good for him as he is not giving him any face.
“Mr. Zhao, why does my brother have to give you any face?” Wang Siya, who was close by, vaguely heard the conversation and narrowed her eyes.
“I don’t mean that ……” Zhao Yuan, after all, is only a Branch Family Member of the Zhao Family, facing Wang Siya, he suddenly lost all of his strength. He has many words he wants to speak in his heart but he did not dare to say them out loud. He looked at Su Jing and Zheng Nan and said some polite words before walking away.
Wang Siya and Su Jing didn’t take Zhao Yuan’s word to their heart and they just treated him as a clown. Zheng Nan has just quietly observed the expressions of Su Jing and Wang Siya and she was relieved to see that neither of them had paid any attention to Zhao Yuan.
In this way, her cooperation with the Galactic Group should not be disturbed.
It was still early, and the dinner continued. After a while, there was a commotion at the door. Su Jing and others turned around and saw Zhao Yuan with a group of people coming in, headed by a strong middle-aged man in a straight suit.
They walked straight towards Li Tianhe, Zhao Yuan introduced the middle-aged man to Li Tianhe, and there were people around him making noise, and the scene suddenly became lively.
“That middle-aged man, he looks familiar.” Wang Zhuo said.
“You don’t even recognize him. He is Liu Jie, an old singing artist. He probably the one Zhao Yuan invited to sing.” Li Ying said.
“That Zhao Yuan, he is really trying his best.” Li Nianying smiled faintly.
For ordinary people, inviting stars to sing on their birthdays is something that they can’t even think of. However, for families such as Zhao Family, Li Family, and Wang Family, it is a very simple matter.
They even look down upon the average pop stars. Zhao Yuan should have called such an old singing artist to cater to Li Tianhe. Although he is not as famous as those pop kings and queens, his level is not superlative. He has been to the Spring Festival Gala twice.
Because they were a little far away, they couldn’t hear Zhao Yuan and others talking, but Su Jing could hear them clearly. He looked at the 60-year-old woman sitting next to Li Tianhe and asked: “Uncle Li has a difficult and touching past with aunt?”
The sixty-year-old woman was Li Tianhe’s wife, Li Nianying, Li Ying’s mother, and for Su Jing, it would not have been too much to call her grandmother, or at least an aunt. However, he followed Wang Zhuo and Wang Siya and can only call them uncle and aunt without any second option.
“Hehe, the story of my parents is enough to write a book.” Li Nianying laughed and then briefly told the past story of Li Tianhe and his wife. After Su Jing finished listening, he couldn’t help but sigh that it was really a bumpy and rough ride for them. When they were young, they were naturally not as open as they are now.
In the beginning, because of the family relationship and the obstruction of their rivals, they were obstructed in a thousand ways. Later, due to political reasons, their family was divided into two camps, and it was as if a gap was drawn between the two, and they almost parted ways.
Fortunately, they did not give up. Instead, they persisted and waited for nearly ten years. After that much time, the political relationship between their family eased up, plus both families were moved by their persistence, so they finally agreed to their marriage.
When Zhao Yuan introduced Liu Jie, he briefly mentioned the past about Li Tianhe and his wife. Liu Jie was ready to sing a song, “Old Age is a Reality,” to pay tribute to them both and wish them a peaceful old age.
The Li Family, of course, has a stereo, and after the music was played, the crowd quieted down. Liu Jie picked up the microphone and started to sing, and as expected of an old singing artist, his level was really remarkable, and many people in the audience were moved by the song.
After the song, Mr. and Mrs. Li Tianhe’s eyes were slightly moist.
“It’s a good song.” Li Ying praised.
“Not only is it good but those pop singers are basically no match for it.” Li Nianying said.
“However, compared to A’Jing’s Ancient Zither Music, it’s still a bit short.” Wang Siya laughed.
“Sister Siya, you shouldn’t overpraise me.” Su Jing waved his hand.
“Oh, I’m not undermining you, I really mean it.” Wang Siya giggled.
“Right A’Jing, why don’t you play a song for Uncle Li too?” Wang Zhuo suddenly said.
“Yes, yes, we’re all here, you must play a song.” Both Li Nianying and Li Ying’s eyes lit up. They had already heard Su Jing’s Ancient Zither Music, but they have only heard it online and they couldn’t listen to him personally because they have no connection with Su Jing in front of them.
Now that Wang Siya and Wang Zhuo mentioned it, they were really excited.
“This… is okay, but I didn’t bring my Ancient Zither with me.” Su Jing said.
“I have learned it some time ago, and I happen to have one Ancient Zither at home.” Li Nianying laughed, she did learn it for a while, but she actually didn’t even learn the basics as he found it too difficult and gave up, but she still kept the Ancient Zither with her.
Li Nianying asked the Housekeeper to bring the Ancient Zither here, Su Jing tried a few times and found that the Ancient Zither was passable. Li Tianhe and his wife suddenly smiled when they heard that Su Jing was going to play. Liu Jie, Zhao Yuan, Zhao Qifeng, and others looked over with great attention.
“Uncle Li, Auntie, this song is dedicated to you.” Su Jing said with a smile and gently placed his hands on the zither string, and a long and silent zither sound sounded, which Su Jing felt was perfect for Li Tianhe and his wife.
