I am chasing a rough man in the 80s
Chapter 304: Kind Lies

Chapter 304: Chapter 304: Kind Lies

Suizi remained silent for a long time, so long that Chen Lijun thought the line was disconnected.

"Mom, are you sure you remember correctly? The place you went, was it really that place?" Suizi’s floating voice came through the receiver.

Upon hearing it, Chen Lijun felt inexplicably guilty.

"Yeah, what’s the matter, is there a problem?" asked Chen Lijun.

Suizi fell silent again for a while.

"It’s okay, I’ve got some things to deal with at school, I’ll hang up now."

Chen Lijun, who was hung up on, frowned slightly.

That girl, could she have discovered something?

"Xiaowang, you didn’t make a mistake, right? There are only a few places that produce pearls in the country, right?" Chen Lijun asked her secretary.

"Deputy Director, I’m sure I didn’t make a mistake. I checked for a long time and even made phone calls to confirm it. There won’t be any problems."

"Can you tell the origin of the pearls from the appearance of the clam?"

"I’m afraid that’s impossible, aren’t they all clams?"

It was only then that Chen Lijun felt at ease, but she still felt that Suizi’s reaction on the phone was strange.

She called her insider at Yu Jingting’s factory, intending to contact him.

When the call went through, the insider was not there, and she had no idea where he had gone to fool around.

"Well, I guess I’m overthinking it."

Chen Lijun rubbed her temples. Her daughter was really subtle, only someone with ADHD like Jingting could tolerate her.

Suizi returned to her own office, her expression vacant.

Her mother had lied.

The place her mother mentioned only produced cultured freshwater pearls, there was no sea there at all.

Suizi was knowledgeable about geography and knew where there was sea and where there was no.

Obviously, her mother had lied.

But how did she know that she had received the pearls, and the yellow croaker last time--

Suizi had immediately thought of Yu Jingting.

This fellow, always calling her ’us mom’; overly enthusiastic, what if he conspired with her mother to deceive her?

Suizi felt suffocated.

Who exactly sent these things, with a little thought she could guess.

Someone able to send these expensive gifts, and send letters from all over the country, must certainly have quite a bit of influence.

Especially those three yellow croakers, they represented not only money but the heritage of a family.

They implied the inheritance of a family over generations, regardless of any changes, still capable of maintaining their power, showing the strength of the family.

The one in Beijing who had dealings with her mother would be the one related to her, who had the power to send these. It must be her biological father who gave the gifts.

It was ridiculous that she still didn’t know the man’s name.

She wasn’t very keen on knowing either.

The man who had been absent from her life for two lifetimes, wasn’t even a passerby in her life.

Furthermore, that family was always strange. The purpose behind sending things might not be to please her, but perhaps they were secretly scheming to borrow her life force again.

She only spent a moment thinking about it. The next second, her anger was directed at Yu Jingting.

This traitor!

He actually conspired behind her back with her mother, deceiving her together!

If her knowledge wasn’t broad, she would probably be kept in the dark by him and her mother, treated like a fool!

The more Suizi thought about it, the angrier she became. She didn’t care about those who weren’t worthy of her concern, but Yu Jingting was different.

He was the only one she had chosen for two lifetimes, the only man she recognized beside her. How could he betray her trust?

She was going to confront him at the tobacco factory now.

As for how to deal with him when she found him, Suizi hadn’t thought about it. She was just really angry at the moment.

Just as she was about to walk out of the office, she saw the infuriating man she was looking for talking to Zhang Yue’e in the reception office.

Suizi sneaked over and secretly eavesdropped while sticking to the wall.

"Brother-in-law, can’t you just give it to Suizi yourself? Why do you have to say it was made by me?"

Zhang Yue’e was carrying a thermal flask in her hand, not knowing what was inside.

"If I bring it to her, she definitely won’t eat it. If you say it’s made by you, she might give you face and eat some."

The doctor said that Suizi’s legs were a bit swollen and advised her to eat more carp.

Suizi was fussy and would absolutely not eat it at home.

She was good at acting like a baby with Yu Jingting, and he had no choice but to think of this compromise.

"My wife is reasonable to outsiders, but she is unreasonable to me."

If it was said to be made by Zhang Yue’e, according to Suizi’s character, even if she didn’t like to eat it, she would eat some. To fool his wife, Yu Jingting really went all out.

Zhang Yue’e understood when he explained it, and she giggled.

"Our Director Suizi only acts like a child with you because she cherishes you. But she is very strict with the rest of us."

Suizi was a good executive. Working for her was very reassuring. But Suizi had boundaries when it came to work. Even people who slacked off like Wang Mengmeng had to do their job properly.

Otherwise, Director Xiaochen could think of a hundred ways to make everyone suffer.

"Brother-in-law, although you’re doing this for Suizi’s sake, I seem to remember that she hates being lied to the most?"

"This is called a white lie, as long as it’s for her benefit....forget it, let’s not talk about it. Just remember what I said, trick her into eating the fish."

As their conversation entered Suizi’s ears, her anger was instantly appeased.

Her heart was filled.

The anger from before, wanting to confront him, completely vanished.

Before Yu Jingting came out, Suizi quickly left.

She stood by the window of her office, watching him leave in a hurry.

After a while, Zhang Yue’e cautiously carried the thermal flask that Yu Jingting gave her and quickly walked towards the dormitory. After another while, Zhang Yue’e came back with a small stainless-steel basin.

"Suizi, try the fish I stewed."

For fear of Suizi discovering, she didn’t dare to use the thermal flask of the Yu’s family.

"Suizi....why are your eyes red?"

"It’s nothing, maybe it’s because of the wind. Where are the chopsticks? I’ll go try your cooking."

Once she saw that Suizi was eating, Zhang Yue’e sighed in relief, as she had completed the task entrusted by her brother-in-law. As expected, Suizi ate quite a bit.

"Hey Suizi, do you have any unmarried brother-in-laws?"

Who wouldn’t want a man who is so attentive to his pregnant wife?

Yu Jingting was taken, so Zhang Yue’e could only set her hopes on other members of the Yu family.

"Eh, he does have some cousins, but--their character is completely different from my man’s."

Suizi simply explained to Zhang Yue’e about the strange relatives of the Yu family. Whether it’s digging up ancestral tombs or shamelessly asking for money, any part of their story could scare a young girl being pursued into a sulk.

"Then how did his family raise such a different child?"

"I guess it’s probably because of my father-in-law. He was a man who really knew how to love his wife."

It was essential to examine the person’s family background when dating, observing the interaction model of his parents because most men were replicating their primary family’s practices.

After Suizi had cleared her mind, she quickly understood why Yu Jingting and her mother were going round in circles to deceive her.

The cause was love.

After understanding, even the carp she didn’t like seemed not so hard to swallow anymore.
