My buildings have attributes

"Why did you take so many things?" Mr. Chen quickly took the things from Chen Ling's hands and said.

“Yes, we’ve already bought them all,” Mrs. Chen quickly added after seeing this.

"Brother, sister-in-law," Li Ran and Chen Xiaoqi said.

Then everyone in the room burst into laughter.

"Wow, Xiaoqi, your belly is so big!" Li Lili said curiously as she looked at Chen Xiaoqi.

“Yes, my back always hurts. Sister-in-law, let me tell you, it’s a good thing you don’t want children now. Pregnancy is really too hard,” Chen Xiaoqi said to Li Lili.

"Ningxue, don't listen to Xiaoqi's nonsense." Before Li Lili could even speak, Chen's mother began to say. Then, Chen's mother turned to Chen Xiaoqi and said, "Xiaoqi, don't give me any bad advice." Chen's mother quickly instructed Chen Xiaoqi.

When Chen's mother heard what Chen Xiaoqi said to Li Lili, she immediately panicked. She worried that Li Lili might refuse to have children because of this, and what would happen then? Just then, Li Lili said, "Mom, don't worry, Chen Ling and I will definitely have children in a few years." Li Lili wanted to reassure Chen's mother and put her mind at ease, but her words only made Chen's mother unhappy.

Then, Mrs. Chen began, "You said a few years? Isn't that a bit long?" Her tone was somewhat indifferent. "Mom, let's talk about that later. Let's talk about something else today," Chen Ling quickly interjected, trying to smooth things over.

"Chen Ling, come play a game of chess with me," Chen's father said to Chen Ling, so Chen Ling followed his father to the study to play chess. In the living room, only Li Ran and the others remained. Naturally, it was Chen's mother's turn to play next.

Mrs. Chen kept giving Li Ran and Chen Xiaoqi instructions, telling them to be careful during this last period. She talked for a long time before finally stopping because she was thirsty.

“Mom, you’ll get hoarse if you keep talking. Don’t worry, my mother-in-law is home too. What could possibly happen? Besides, Li Ran was worried something might happen to me, so he worked overtime before the New Year, doing a lot of extra work, thinking that I’d be giving birth after the New Year and he could spend more time with me.” After Chen Xiaoqi finished speaking, she heard her mother praise her, saying, “I know, Li Ran is a good boy. You’re usually careless, but luckily Li Ran is thoughtful and can think of things.”

When Chen's mother heard Chen Xiaoqi's words, she was first surprised, then relieved. She was relieved that Li Ran had thought of everything so thoroughly.

Then Chen's mother shifted her focus again, advising Li Lili, "Xiaoxue, you and Chen Ling should have a child as soon as possible while you're still young. That way, your father and I can help take care of the child. Otherwise, in a few years, your father and I will be too old to help you take care of the child."

"Mom, let's not talk about this for now," Li Lili said tactfully to Chen's mother.

Then Chen's mother said again, "Okay, okay, let's not talk about this today. What do you want to eat for lunch? I'll make it for you."

As soon as Chen's mother finished speaking, Chen Xiaoqi immediately said, "Mom, I want to eat braised pork and drink fish soup."

"Okay, okay, I understand," Mrs. Chen said with a smile. Then Mrs. Chen and the others started chatting again. Meanwhile, Chen Ling and Mr. Chen were also talking in the study.

Then Mr. Chen began to speak: "Chen Ling, how are things at Xiaoxue's family?"

"That's good. Ningxue's mother and sister have calmed down now," Chen Ling replied. "That's good. I was worried that with such a thing happening in the family during the New Year, they wouldn't be able to accept it for a while and would have to tough it out. It's good that they're able to let it go now," Chen's father said to Chen Ling while holding the chessboard.

"Dad, Mom and I don't need to worry about this. When you have free time, go out more often and get some exercise. Don't worry about us. We're all grown up and can take care of ourselves. You and Mom should just continue living our carefree lives like before," Chen Ling said to his father. Chen Ling had actually wanted to say these words to them for a long time, but he hadn't found the opportunity until now.

“I know you’re filial, but people get old, and they tend to nag. And your mother wants a grandson, that’s perfectly normal,” Mr. Chen said worriedly. He was concerned that Chen Ling would find them nagging, so he quickly explained.

"Dad, I know everything. I just feel sorry for you and don't want you and Mom to keep worrying about us. I just want you to have an easier life," Chen Ling said earnestly to his father.

Chapter 322 A Lively Scene

After chatting with his father for a while, Chen Ling began to concentrate on playing chess. After several games, Chen Ling couldn't beat his father, who then said to him, "After all these years, your chess skills haven't improved at all!"

Upon hearing this, Chen Ling said helplessly to his father, "When it comes to chess, I'm really not as good as you." After a while, the game was finally over.

At that moment, Mr. Chen said again, "Alright, that's enough for today." After Chen Ling and his father packed up the chessboard, they prepared to leave. When they came out, they saw Li Lili and the others still chatting.

After Chen Ling came out, he said mockingly, "You guys are still chatting here. What are you talking about?" Chen Ling thought that his mother must still be giving them a political lesson, and then he felt secretly pleased.

"We didn't talk about anything," Chen Xiaoqi said to Chen Ling, pouting.

Chen Ling ignored Chen Xiaoqi and instead asked Li Ran, "Li Ran, Dad just said I didn't play chess well. Will you go play with him next time?"

"Okay, I'll play a few rounds with Dad next time," Li Ran readily agreed.

Then Mrs. Chen said, "I'll go prepare lunch. You two chat for a while." After saying that, Mrs. Chen stood up and went to the kitchen to cook.

"Mom, I'll go with you," Li Lili said. She then stood up and followed Chen's mother.

"Mom, I won't go. Thank you and my sister-in-law for your trouble." Chen Xiaoqi said.

"Alright, just rest and don't move. I can manage on my own. Xiaoxue is here too, the two of us are enough," Mrs. Chen said with a smile. Mrs. Chen and Li Lili then went to prepare lunch, leaving Chen Ling and the others chatting in the living room. Clearly, at this point, Chen Xiaoqi was the only woman left in the living room, so the conversation shifted from family matters to work.

Mr. Chen then asked, "Li Ran, is your company doing well? I haven't heard you talk about these things before."

"Dad, everything's fine at the company, don't worry. There's nothing major going on after the New Year, so I'll stay home and take care of Xiaoqi during her delivery," Li Ran said with a smile. After chatting with Li Ran about work for a while, Chen's father started talking about Chen Ling's company again.

"Brother, how's your company doing? I haven't heard anything about it lately," Li Ran asked Chen Ling, turning to him.

"Why are you still concerned about my company?" Chen Ling asked, puzzled, after hearing Li Ran's words.

Then Chen Ling began to speak: "Our company took on a shopping mall project before the Lunar New Year. We'll be working on that first when we start work again after the holiday. We'll be busy for a while after the holiday." After Li Ran finished speaking, she thought about the company project again.

"Is that so? I thought you'd been idle these past few days. By the way, I saw Dean Wu a few days ago, and he was praising your skills to me," Li Ran said casually.

"Haha, speaking of Dean Wu, we have to thank him for helping us contact the experts a few days ago," Chen Ling said quickly after hearing Li Ran's words.

"I've heard him say a few words about this matter too. Dean Wu is a very kind-hearted person," Li Ran praised. Afterwards, Li Ran and Chen Ling chatted about other things. The living room was filled with lively conversation, and before they knew it, a long time had passed, until Chen's mother called them to eat.

Then, Chen's mother said, "It's almost time to eat, this will be ready soon." After saying that, Chen's mother went back to the kitchen. So Chen Ling and the others went to wash their hands and prepare to eat. At this time, Li Lili was busy bringing dishes to the table.

Soon, all the dishes on the table were served, and the Chen family members sat down to eat.

"Happy New Year." Chen Xiaoqi raised her glass with her drink.

"Happy New Year!" The rest of the Chen family members also picked up their glasses and began to say in unison.

"Wow, Mom, this braised pork is delicious!" Chen Xiaoqi exclaimed after taking a bite. Then, Chen's mother said, "Xiaoxue made this." After saying that, Chen's mother turned to Li Lili and smiled.

Just then, Li Lili said, "If you like it, eat more."

After Li Lili finished speaking, she put some food into Chen Xiaoqi's bowl. Then, the table was filled with lively chatter again.

During the Lunar New Year, we all hope for a lively atmosphere at home. The day before yesterday, it was just Mr. and Mrs. Chen at the Chen family's house, which made it much more relaxed than it is now. So, during dinner, they chatted and laughed, continuing to talk at the table even after everyone had finished eating. They shared their own stories, creating a very lively atmosphere.

"We've been chatting for so long, it's time to tidy up. You two go to the living room and watch some TV," Mrs. Chen said, gesturing with her chin to the plates on the dining table. Mr. Chen and his wife then got up to go to the living room.

"Thank you for your hard work, Mom," Chen Xiaoqi said. Li Lili then said, "It's nothing, you guys go ahead, I'll help Mom." After saying that, Li Lili started clearing away the dishes and then took them to the kitchen to wash them.

Soon, Li Lili and Chen's mother finished their work in the kitchen and went to the living room to watch TV for a while. When they arrived, they found them watching a TV series starring Chen Xiaoqi from a long time ago.

As Chen's mother sat down, she said, "Xiaoqi, why are you watching this?" Since retiring from the entertainment industry, Chen's mother had been busy with family matters. Watching her daughter's previous dramas now inevitably brought back some memories.

"Dad just saw it casually," Chen Xiaoqi said casually.

After that, Chen's mother stopped talking about those things and started chatting about other topics. Around mid-afternoon, Chen Xiaoqi and Li Ran said they wanted to go home. Chen's mother didn't stop them, as it wasn't safe to go back so late. So, she told Li Ran and Chen Xiaoqi to drive carefully on their way back. Then Chen Xiaoqi and Li Ran went home. Chen Ling and Li Lili stayed a little longer before also preparing to go home.

Chapter 323 New Year, New Look

As Li Lili and her family were leaving, Chen's mother reminded Li Lili to have a grandson soon. "Mom and Dad, we're leaving now," Li Lili said to Chen's mother and father.

"Be careful on the road," Chen's mother nodded and said. Then Chen Ling and Li Lili drove home. The annual leave wasn't very long, and Chen Ling and Li Lili would sometimes visit the Shen family or the Chen family. Before they knew it, the annual leave was over.

"I've been enjoying myself for too long. I'll be busy when I get back to the company," Chen Ling said to Li Lili after lying down on the bed.

“Yes. But it’s good to be busy, at least you have something to do,” Li Lili said, turning her head. So Chen Ling and Li Lili chatted for a few more minutes, and before they knew it, they had fallen asleep.

The next morning, Chen Ling got up early. He tiptoed out of bed, ready to make breakfast for Li Lili. Once in the kitchen, Chen Ling got to work. Having learned from his previous experience, he wasn't as clumsy this time. Not long after, Li Lili got up.

"You're preparing breakfast again?" Li Lili said with a smile after walking into the kitchen. When Li Lili woke up in the morning, she didn't see Chen Ling. She thought that Chen Ling might have gone to prepare breakfast for her, which warmed her heart. When Li Lili walked into the kitchen, she indeed saw Chen Ling's busy figure, and she felt even more satisfied.

“Yes, it will be ready soon.” Chen Ling turned to look at Li Lili and said.

“This time you didn’t break the plate,” Li Lili said again. After saying that, she and Chen Ling laughed together. Then Chen Ling said, “Alright, alright, breakfast is ready.” As he spoke, Chen Ling carried the breakfast over.

"How is it? Is it delicious?" Chen Ling asked anxiously.

"Don't be in such a hurry, I haven't even tasted it yet," Li Lili said with a smile.

"Delicious, delicious," Li Lili said, looking at Chen Ling who was anxiously staring at her. Chen Ling then smiled and began eating the breakfast he had made. He thought to himself that the food he had prepared was actually quite good.

Then Chen Ling began to say, "Am I very talented?" Chen Ling's narcissistic tendencies were acting up again.

"Uh, yes, there is," Li Lili said helplessly, but she was secretly delighted.

"Haha, I think so too. I'll do it for you a few more times in the future," Chen Ling said cheerfully. At this moment, Li Lili hurriedly said, "No need, no need, you're not suited for these things."

Upon hearing this, Chen Ling smiled at Li Lili and then continued eating. They quickly finished their meal and arrived at the company.

So while they were in the car, they were still saying, "We're going to be tired when we get to the company."

Upon hearing this, Li Lili said, "Yes, but I'm already ready." Li Lili spoke as if she had been injected with adrenaline.

After chatting with Chen Ling for a while, Li Lili arrived at the company. Soon, Chen Ling and Li Lili got out of the car and strode towards the company.

"Here you are, boss." As soon as Chen Ling entered the company, the employees all greeted him hurriedly.

Then Chen Ling said, "There's a meeting later, you all know that, right?" They all replied, "We know," and then went back to their work. They had started a thorough cleaning as soon as they arrived at the company. They finished quickly, and it was time for the company meeting.

So Chen Ling went to the conference room, where he found that everyone else in the company was already there. Today's meeting was a little different from usual; it was a company-wide meeting, mainly about the new year and boosting morale. Fortunately, the meeting didn't take long. After the meeting, Chen Ling hurried back to his office to prepare for the project.

As soon as work resumes at the company, construction will begin on the construction site. Once the roof is completed, the interior decoration will start. So, Chen Ling quickly finished the documents at hand and immediately called Liu Yuyang in.

"Boss," Liu Yuyang called out.

"Do you have any work to do?" Chen Ling asked immediately.

"There's nothing else, go ahead and tell me," Liu Yuyang said directly.

"Come with me to the construction site." After saying that, Chen Ling got up and prepared to go.

So Liu Yuyang quickly replied, "Okay, let's go." Liu Yuyang had originally planned to go tomorrow, but he hadn't expected Chen Ling to be in such a hurry. So Liu Yuyang and Chen Ling drove to the construction site.

"How's your personal matter going?" Chen Ling asked as soon as he got into the car. "Sigh, my family keeps pressuring me. I don't know what Chen Mengyao is thinking. Every time I bring it up, she starts to interrupt," Liu Yuyang said helplessly. Chen Ling looked equally at a loss.

Then Liu Yuyang continued, "By the way, have you finished dealing with your family matters?"

"It's all over now, nothing much has happened. Ningxue's family has settled down too. But my mom's thinking about having a grandson again. She's getting old, and when she has free time, she starts to overthink things," Chen Ling said casually.

Chen Ling recalled what his mother had repeatedly said during the New Year. Then he heard Liu Yuyang say helplessly, "Every family has its own troubles." After saying this, Liu Yuyang continued driving.

Before long, they arrived at the construction site. After getting out of the car, Chen Ling and Liu Yuyang looked at the shopping mall and sighed.

"Let's start the renovation now," Liu Yuyang said. Chen Ling nodded to Liu Yuyang and then started the system.

"System, exchange for three construction teams," Chen Ling said calmly.

The system immediately redeemed a construction team, ready to begin work. Chen Ling said, "When you have time, come over and keep an eye on things." Liu Yuyang immediately nodded.

The construction team quickly got to work. Chen Ling and Liu Yuyang watched for a while before preparing to head back. He naturally trusted the construction team.

"If we go back now, we can still have lunch," Liu Yuyang said with a smile.

"That's true." Chen Ling glanced at the time and then said.

So Liu Yuyang and Chen Ling drove back to the company.

They returned shortly afterward.
