While out picking up trash, I was forcefully pushed around by a beautiful female CEO.

"dad!"

Li Shuangshuang came out of the house. She had changed into a plain-colored long dress and her hair was now in a neat ponytail.

Upon seeing Li Zuwang, Li Shuangshuang took a pair of slippers from the shoe rack and placed them at his feet before suddenly saying, "Dad, change your shoes first, I'll go get you some water."

Li Zuwang hesitated for a long time, then his eyes suddenly stung with tears. This was truly home.

"Shuangshuang! Yunyun!"

However, after taking a deep breath, Li Zuwang still spoke.

Li Shuangshuang and Meng Yun both looked at Li Zuwang.

"I won't change my shoes, and I'm afraid we can't eat at home either. Xiao Feng's elders have come to Minghai, and they've arranged a banquet for us tonight."

After hesitating for a moment, Li Zuwang finally spoke.

After saying that, Li Zuwang sighed inwardly. His wife, Meng Yun, had finally cooked a meal, but he said he wouldn't eat at home. He was afraid that Meng Yun would give him a sour look and complain. Thinking of this, he couldn't help but say, "How about we eat a little something at home first?"

"What are we eating? Xiao Feng's elders are here, so of course we have to go over!"

To Li Zuwang's surprise, Meng Yun did not complain when she heard this. Instead, she became even more excited and took off her apron and threw it into the kitchen: "Anyway, what I make may not be delicious. Come on, I need to change into some formal clothes. Xiao Feng's elders have come all the way to Minghai, so we can't keep them waiting."

"Dad, are you having dinner with my cousin's husband tonight?"

Li Shuangshuang also spoke with some surprise, but she couldn't hide the anticipation in her eyes.

Li Zuwang was stunned.

Soon, Meng Yun came out after changing her clothes. Only then did Li Zuwang notice the watch on Meng Yun's wrist. After just a couple of glances, Li Zuwang's pupils dilated sharply, and he asked seriously, "Yunyun, where did you get that watch on your wrist?"

Li Zuwang was a connoisseur; he had often gone out on missions during his time in the military, needing to disguise himself in various identities, so he could naturally tell the value of the watch on Meng Yun's wrist.

It would require at least four million in backing. Although the Li family has some wealth, it's impossible for them to buy a watch like this. No matter how vain Meng Yun is, she wouldn't be so reckless.

"This one? Is it nice? Shuangshuang gave it to me. She's only eighteen or nineteen years old, why would she wear a watch?"

Meng Yun blew on the watch on her wrist, seemingly reluctant to let it go, to remove the non-existent dust.

Li Shuangshuang was somewhat helpless. It wasn't a gift at all. After Meng Yun learned the value of the watch, she put it on without saying a word.

However, Li Shuangshuang didn't care. Meng Yun was right; it was indeed inappropriate for her to wear such an expensive watch. The only person she felt indebted to was Lin Feng.

"Shuangshuang, where did you get this watch? Did you do something wrong?"

Li Zuwang's face was cold and ugly. He couldn't think of any other way a young girl could obtain such a valuable item besides that kind of means.

If that's the case, he absolutely cannot tolerate it.

"Dad, what...what are you thinking?"

Li Shuangshuang knew what her father, Li Zuwang, was thinking. Her cheeks flushed, she lowered her head and explained, "It was...it was a gift from my cousin-in-law's friend..."

"Little Wind?"

Li Zuwang paused, a look of confusion and bewilderment on his face, and asked, "Didn't you go out with Kelly Chen and the others? How did Xiaofeng get involved? Are you not telling me the truth?"

"real!"

Li Shuangshuang tugged at the hem of her skirt, her eyes reddening with grievance as she thought about being ostracized that morning: "Dad, you're right. You can't force yourself into a circle you can't fit into. I was ignorant before, but I'll definitely listen to you from now on..."

Afterwards, Li Shuangshuang told Li Zuwang what had happened that morning.

After hearing this, Li Zuwang fell into a brief silence.

"Those wild girls from the Chen and Liu families are really outrageous! Humph, they even dare to bully my daughter like this!"

Meng Yun also spoke up angrily from the side, but she didn't sound very confident.

"If it weren't for Xiao Feng, Shuangshuang would have had to suffer in silence even if she was bullied and ostracized."

Li Zuwang glanced at Meng Yun, then tenderly stroked Li Shuangshuang's hair: "It's not that Dad is hard-hearted, but there are some things you won't believe no matter how many times Dad tells you, unless you experience them yourself! I'm so happy that you understand this time!"

"Dad, I'm sorry!"

Li Shuangshuang said with a slight sob, then looked up at Li Zuwang and mustered her courage to say, "This watch was a gift from Sister Yun because of my cousin-in-law, but it's too valuable. Should we return it to him?"

Did you talk to Xiaofeng about it today?

Upon hearing this, Li Zuwang looked at Li Shuangshuang and asked.

"I said it!"

Li Shuangshuang nodded, then said with a complicated expression, "My cousin-in-law said that this was a gift from Sister Yun, and that he doesn't need it."

"Then take it! Remember, from now on, don't be polite with Xiaofeng. Treat him like family. As long as you show enough attitude and sincerity, Xiaofeng will never harm us! I can guarantee that."

Li Zuwang nodded and said.

"That's right, that's right, I'm his aunt, how can we not be family?"

Hearing Li Zuwang say that the watch didn't need to be returned, Meng Yun breathed a sigh of relief, and her smile widened even more.

If Li Zuwang insisted on returning it, she really wouldn't dare say anything, after all, the events of the past two days had already shown Meng Yun Lin Feng's power.

She seems to have completely forgotten that Lin Fan slapped her.

Let's go!

Seeing that Meng Yun was still the same, Li Zuwang didn't say anything more. He was already satisfied that his daughter Li Shuangshuang could change him. As for Meng Yun, as long as she listened to him and didn't do anything stupid, he was too lazy to say anything more.

On the way to the car, Li Zuwang called his son Li Zhiheng again.

When the call connected, Li Zuwang learned that Lin Feng had already asked Meng Bufan to convey the dinner arrangements to his son, Li Zhiheng. At this moment, Li Zuwang's mood finally brightened.

The fact that Lin Feng specifically asked Meng Bufan to convey the matter of the banquet shows that Lin Feng at least cares about his peers like Li Zhiheng and Meng Bufan, and that's enough.

Around 7 p.m., at Jiangyue International Hotel.

Li Zuwang and his two companions, along with the rest of the Meng family, met in the parking lot. Meng Yuanhe, Meng Boqu, Meng Botao, Meng Bufan, and others were among them. Notably, even Meng Qingyao's aunt and uncle, who hadn't appeared last time, were present this time.

"Grandpa, Uncle, I asked my second sister's husband. He and my second sister are still on their way and will be there in about twenty minutes. He told us to go up first; our room is in the International Business Hall of the International Hotel!"

Meng Bufan said.

"International Business Department?"

Upon hearing this, Meng Boqu was startled and exclaimed, "Isn't that where Minghai City entertains particularly important figures? Besides, isn't this hall reserved only for high-ranking officials of Minghai City's government?"

"Big brother, it seems Xiao Feng's uncle is really something else!"

Meng Botao took a deep breath and said.

Li Zuwang was not surprised at all, and said with a smile, "Since Xiao Feng told us to go up first, let's not wait here."

"Great, great! Let's go over there first! I've never been to this International Business Hall before!"

Meng Yuanhe also quickly spoke up.

The others nodded in agreement.

Soon, the group arrived at the banquet hall where they were, and Meng Yuanhe pushed open the door to the banquet hall with some anticipation.

As soon as I opened the door, I saw that there were already two people sitting inside.

Upon seeing who was inside, Meng Yuanhe's expression changed drastically, and he exclaimed, "Minister Yu, Mayor Qin... Mayor Qin, what... what are you doing here?"
