"Okay, okay, I understand," Li Lili said, pouting aggrievedly.

Looking at Li Lili's current state, Chen Ling felt a little amused. He was somewhat soft-hearted at this moment, but considering the safety issue, he held back.

"Where's Mom?" Chen Ling asked, changing the subject.

"I'm cooking," Li Lili said, pointing to the kitchen.

"Okay, then I'll go take a shower while Mom hasn't finished cooking yet." Chen Ling said as he stood up.

"Okay, you can go ahead." After hearing what Chen Ling said, Li Lili looked up at Chen Ling and then spoke.

After Li Lili finished speaking, Chen Ling left.

So Li Lili continued playing on her phone until Chen's mother came over and called them to come eat. At that moment, Chen's father, who was in the study, also came over.

"I just heard Chen Ling's voice, where did he run off to again?" Chen's father said immediately after he came out.

"Oh, he went to take a shower, he should be out soon." Li Lili replied quickly after hearing this.

"Alright then, let's eat first, we won't wait for him." At this moment, Chen's mother glanced at Chen Ling's room and then spoke up.

“Okay,” Mr. Chen said.

However, just as Chen's mother and the others picked up their chopsticks and were about to eat, Chen Ling came over from inside again.

As Chen Ling walked, he said, "You're eating now, not waiting for me." He said this with a smile.

"Then why are we waiting for you? On another note, did you hear us say inside that we wouldn't wait for you for dinner, so you came over again?" Chen's mother asked Chen Ling.

"Haha, yes, Mom, that's pretty much it. As soon as I heard you say you wanted to eat, I immediately got dressed and ran out," Chen Ling said, echoing his mother's words.

At this moment, Chen's mother couldn't help but laugh.

Then Chen Ling began to say, "By the way, I have something to tell you. I just told Ningxue about it."

"What is it?" Chen's mother and father asked at the same time.

"It's about Xiaoqi. We were just talking about Xiaoqi's job yesterday, and we wanted her to start her own company," Chen Ling said, keeping everyone in suspense.

"And then? What happened?" Chen's mother asked.

Just then, Chen Ling, who was standing to the side, said again, "What happened? What do you think happened? They got it done today."

"Huh? So fast?" Mr. Chen, who was standing to the side, couldn't help but exclaim in surprise.

"Yes, how come it's so fast?" Chen's mother asked again at this moment.

"We really have to thank Li Ran for this. He spent the whole day running around and got everything done for Xiao Qi. Xiao Qi asked me to go over tomorrow to see how to decorate her studio," Chen Ling continued.

“Okay, that’s good news, go ahead,” Mrs. Chen said, nodding.

"How about your mom and I go with you tomorrow? We can see what it's like there and what the environment is like," Mr. Chen said at that moment.

"Oh, that's fine. As long as you want it, I'm happy to oblige," Chen Ling said with a smile.

Chen Ling initially wanted to refuse, but considering that Li Lili was also going tomorrow, he thought that if his parents were there, Li Lili wouldn't dare to cause trouble. Also, his mother could help him keep an eye on Li Lili, so he agreed.

"Okay, it's settled then. I'll call Xiaoqi later and tell her about it," Chen's mother said again.

"Then you can call after you finish eating," Chen Ling said casually.

Then they started eating again. While eating, they were still talking about Chen Xiaoqi and Li Ran. Chen's mother praised Li Ran for his good temper and his strong professional skills.

Chen Ling seemed completely numb to the sound...

Finally, the meal was almost over. Seeing victory in sight, Chen Ling ate heartily, wanting to finish quickly so he could find a quiet place to calm down and rest for a while. He was exhausted from the bidding process at the company today.

Chapter 425 Interior Decoration 2

Chen Ling found the constant conversation about Chen Xiaoqi and Li Ran quite boring. So he hurriedly finished his meal and prepared to go back to his room to rest.

"You finished eating so quickly?" Li Lili asked as soon as she saw Chen Ling finish his meal.

"Okay, I'll go back to my room to rest first," Chen Ling said calmly.

"What's going on?" Just then, Chen's mother, who was standing nearby, asked with suspicion after seeing Chen Ling return. She noticed that Chen Ling was behaving strangely and asked the question.

Then Li Lili said, "I don't know either. Everything was fine just now. It's okay, Mom. I'll go check on it later."

“Okay,” Mrs. Chen said, nodding.

After finishing her speech, Chen's mother muttered to herself, "Really."

However, at this moment, Li Lili had already stood up and walked towards the front room.

"What's wrong?" Li Lili asked as soon as she entered the room.

"Huh? It's nothing." Chen Ling looked at Li Lili as she came in and quickly replied.

“How can you say you’re okay? Your face is all downcast, it’s pretty obvious.” Li Lili continued, looking at Chen Ling.

At this moment, Chen Ling lowered his head and continued playing with his phone. He didn't say anything more. But soon after, Li Lili's voice could be heard again.

"What's wrong? Is something the matter?" Li Lili walked over to Chen Ling, sat down, and then began to speak.

"It's nothing, oh dear, it was just a bit noisy when we were eating in the living room just now," Chen Ling said casually.

Upon hearing this, Li Lili said with a look of disdain, "Tch, I thought it was something serious. Is this all there is to it? Really."

"Alright, you should go to bed early. We'll go check out Xiaoqi's studio tomorrow," Chen Ling continued.

So Li Lili nodded, started washing up, and prepared to rest.

Chen Ling then put down his phone and went to sleep...

Upon hearing this, Li Lili immediately began to speak again: "Chen Ling."

It turned out that Chen Ling was already asleep at this time. Li Lili had just stepped out of the bathroom when she saw that Chen Ling was already asleep. She tried to call Chen Ling to take a shower, but she couldn't wake him up no matter what she did, which made Li Lili very helpless.

"Forget it, let's leave it at that for today." After a while, Li Lili looked at Chen Ling helplessly and shook her head.

"I'll go to sleep too," Li Lili muttered to herself.

Before we knew it, the weather had gotten cooler... and the people who were fast asleep were starting to wake up one after another.

Aunt Yang was already preparing breakfast. Mr. Chen had also gone downstairs to exercise early this morning. This time, however, he brought Mrs. Chen with him.

In the morning, Mrs. Chen was very reluctant, always saying that she was worried that Mr. Chen would forget about her after seeing his chess friends. But today, Mr. Chen extended a warm invitation, so Mrs. Chen decided to trust him this time.

Fortunately, Mr. Chen was quite considerate today. He didn't leave Mrs. Chen behind all morning, or took her with him to watch the chess game.

"I think I did alright today!" Mrs. Chen said, looking at Mr. Chen.

"Of course," Mr. Chen said with a smug look on his face after hearing this.

"Haha. Good, good, well done." Mrs. Chen looked at Mr. Chen and continued.

Then Mr. Chen continued, "So let me ask you, are you coming out with me tomorrow or not?"

"We'll see how you do," Mrs. Chen said with a smile.

Then Chen's mother said again, "Alright, let's go back now. We still need to go to Xiaoqi's studio later."

"Okay," Mr. Chen quickly replied.

Then, Mr. and Mrs. Chen started walking home...

Soon, the voices of Chen's mother and father could be heard returning.

At this time, Chen Ling and Li Lili were still asleep. However, Aunt Yang had already started doing other housework.

"Chen Ling and Xiao Xue, are you still not up?" Just then, Chen's mother asked Aunt Yang.

Upon hearing this, Aunt Yang quickly turned to look at Chen's mother and the others, and then said, "Yes, Xiaoxue is pregnant now, so it's good for her to sleep more. I didn't feel comfortable calling them. The food is already kept warm in the pot."

"Oh, okay then, let's wait for them a little longer." After hearing this, Mrs. Chen nodded and then continued.

"Okay," Aunt Yang said again, and then went back to her work.

After half an hour, Mr. Chen became a little impatient and said again, "It's almost ten o'clock. Go and wake Chen Ling up."

"What? Go ahead and do it!" Mrs. Chen said immediately when she saw Mr. Chen talking to her.

"Look at you, you're usually great in every way, but sometimes you're not so quick-witted. Do you think it's appropriate for me to go and call for help? Is that even possible?" Mr. Chen said, looking at Mrs. Chen with a smile. He found Mrs. Chen's words somewhat amusing.

"Never mind, let's wait and see. Maybe they both slept late last night," Chen's mother said again.

"Alright then, I won't worry about it anymore. How about we eat first? I'm hungry," Mr. Chen continued.

Just then, Chen Ling came out of the room.

"Why are you all up so early today?" Chen Ling asked as soon as he stepped out of his room, seeing them sitting in a row in the living room.

"Hmm, you're up. Let's start eating then," Mr. Chen said to Chen Ling in a calm tone.

“Okay, let’s eat.” Chen Ling said.

Then I heard Chen's mother say, "Go and call Xiaoxue for dinner."

"Okay, Ningxue, come out for dinner." Chen Ling immediately agreed after hearing what his mother said, and then started calling Li Lili to come over for dinner.

"Okay, I'll be right there," Li Lili said quickly from inside the room.

Soon, Li Lili came out and said, "Mom and Dad, have you been waiting for us? Haven't you eaten yet?"

“Yes, we’re going to check out Xiaoqi’s studio,” Chen’s mother replied immediately after hearing what Li Lili said.

Chapter 426 Interior Decoration 3

After finishing her speech, Chen's mother immediately began eating.

However, Li Lili, who was standing to the side, felt a little embarrassed after hearing what Chen's mother said. So Li Lili said again, "I'm sorry, Mom, we got up late today."

"It's alright. Hurry up and eat," Mrs. Chen said calmly.

"Mmm," Li Lili nodded quickly in response.

At that moment, Chen Ling took out his phone and started calling Chen Xiaoqi.

After Chen Ling's call connected, Chen Xiaoqi said, "Hey, brother, don't tell me you don't have time today and aren't coming."

"I'm not telling you that. On the contrary, I want to tell you that we both have time and are planning to go together." Chen Ling laughed immediately after hearing this, and then began to speak.

"Haha, okay then." Chen Xiaoqi on the other end couldn't help but laugh after hearing what Chen Ling said.
