"How is it, Mom? Is it delicious?" Chen Ling asked impatiently.

"Yes, it's quite delicious. By the way, why are you asking me? Just try it yourself. The food is right there." Chen's mother said, looking at Chen Ling.

Then Chen Ling said, "Okay, I'll try it and see how it is."

As Chen Ling spoke, he began to eat again. He then began to praise Li Lili's cooking skills.

"It's delicious, you should eat some too," Chen Ling said to his father and Li Lili.

"Okay, sure." Li Lili replied quickly at that moment.

Then Li Lili said with a smile, "I also think my cooking skills are pretty good, haha, they haven't gotten worse."

Li Lili laughed as she spoke.

Chen Ling and Li Lili finished their meal quickly and then hurriedly prepared to leave. Today, Chen Xiaoqi's company had an even more important event: its official opening. As family, they wanted to be there to see it.

So Chen Ling and the others quickly tidied up and then hurriedly went out.

"Let's go," Li Lili said with a smile at this moment.

They walked to the car very quickly. Once they reached the garage, Li Lili immediately spoke again. Chen Ling then drove off.

"Let's stop here for a bit and go buy some flowers," Chen Ling said, stopping the car.

"Yes, you're so thoughtful. We would have forgotten if you hadn't mentioned it. Okay, go ahead then, we'll wait for you in the car." As soon as Chen's mother heard what Chen Ling said, she quickly began to speak.

“Okay, I’ve already ordered it. I’ll just go pick it up. Ningxue, you don’t need to get out of the car. I’ll go take a look. You wait here.” Chen Ling quickly said at this moment.

“Okay,” Li Lili nodded in reply.

Then Chen Ling strode into the flower shop, picked up the flowers, and walked back. A short while later, he returned to his car. When Chen Ling came back, his mother immediately said, "Hmm, you chose some good flowers, and the arrangement is very nice."

"Haha, of course! When has your son ever had bad taste?" Chen Ling quickly said to his mother.

Then they saw Chen Ling smugly put down the flowers and continue driving forward... After a long time, they finally heard Li Lili speak again: "Chen Ling, when are we going back after we get there?"

"Hmm? What's wrong? Is there something you need?" Chen Ling turned to look at Li Lili and began to speak.

"No, I just thought she was quite busy since she just opened her business, so I asked," Li Lili explained.

Then Chen Ling quickly added, "It's alright, don't worry. After we finish attending her opening ceremony, we'll head straight back. We won't stay there for too long. Don't worry."

"Yes, as long as it doesn't delay them, it's fine. I'm just worried about causing them trouble," Li Lili said with a smile.

Then Chen Ling quickly said, "You're overthinking things. How could it be troublesome? Don't worry."

"Okay, sure," Li Lili replied quickly.

Not long after, they arrived at Chen Xiaoqi's company, where they found that Li's father and mother had already arrived.

"Mom and Dad, brother and sister-in-law, you've arrived." Li Ran, who was greeting guests at the door, quickly greeted Chen Ling and the others.

"Congratulations!" Chen Ling said quickly.

Then Li Ran, who was standing next to him, immediately said, "Xiao Qi is inside. I'll take you there."

As Li Ran spoke, he began to walk inside. Soon, Li Ran led Chen Ling and the others to Chen Xiaoqi.

"Xiaoqi, Mom and Dad are here." Li Ran quickly said to Chen Xiaoqi.

Then, Chen Xiaoqi, who was standing to the side, immediately turned around after hearing what Li Ran said.

"Mom and Dad, you're here." Chen Xiaoqi said, putting down the documents in her hand.

"Then Sister Xiaoqi, you go ahead with your work. We'll check the progress later," Duoduo quickly said.

Then Chen Xiaoqi nodded to Duoduo, and then Duoduo left first.

"Did I disturb your work?" Chen's mother asked immediately after Duoduo left.

"No, no, how could that be? Don't worry, it's nothing." Chen Xiaoqi quickly said at this moment.

Then Li Lili said with a smile, "Xiaoqi, congratulations!"

"Haha, okay," Chen Xiaoqi replied happily.

Then, Chen Ling quickly handed the flowers he was holding to Chen Xiaoqi. Chen Xiaoqi took the flowers and said to Chen Ling, "The flowers are beautiful, thank you."

"Xiaoqi, let me tell you, I had completely forgotten about this. Luckily, your brother remembered, otherwise we wouldn't have taken anything, hahaha." Just then, Chen's mother looked at Chen Xiaoqi and said with a smile.

However, after hearing what her mother said, Chen Xiaoqi quickly replied, "Yes, it's fine even if you come empty-handed."

“We’re family, so there’s no need to be so polite,” Mr. Chen said with a hearty laugh.

However, Chen Xiaoqi, who was standing to the side, didn't seem to agree with her father's idea after hearing what he said. She shook her head first, and then said with a smile, "Dad, that's not what I meant. What I meant was, we can just swipe our cards and give us a really big red envelope. That would be great, haha."

Chapter 591 Ribbon-cutting Ceremony 2

After Chen Xiaoqi finished speaking, she started laughing happily again. However, Chen's father, who was standing next to her, was completely dumbfounded at this moment.

"What are you thinking about?" Chen Ling asked Chen Xiaoqi speechlessly at this moment.

"Huh? Am I wrong? But this is your only chance." Chen Xiaoqi looked at Chen Ling and continued.

Then Li Lili was seen laughing at this moment.

"Xiaoqi is just joking with you, really, you actually took it seriously?" Li Lili said to Chen Ling.

Then, at that moment, Chen Xiaoqi quickly denied it, saying, "I'm not joking, I'm serious."

"Ah." Li Lili exclaimed in surprise.

Then Li Lili began to say, "You're kidding me."

“Yeah, I’m not kidding you. These days, a lot of red envelopes are given like this, seriously.” At this moment, Chen Xiaoqi said with a smile.

Then, Li Lili whispered to Chen Xiaoqi, "Do you mean you want me to give you a red envelope?"

"Haha, alright, alright, I'm not teasing you anymore." Chen Xiaoqi, seeing Li Lili's reaction, quickly spoke up.

Chen Xiaoqi felt extremely aggrieved looking at Li Lili. So she felt too embarrassed to tease her any further and had to give up.

"It's alright, I did prepare something for you." Li Lili, who was standing to the side, suddenly smiled and said to Chen Xiaoqi.

"Huh? Sister-in-law? What do you mean by that? You prepared something for me. What is it? A red envelope?" Just then, Chen Xiaoqi exclaimed in surprise after hearing what Li Lili said.

"Yes, I prepared a red envelope for you. Here you go." As Li Lili spoke, she took out a red envelope from her bag and handed it to Chen Xiaoqi.

"Oh dear, sister-in-law, I was just kidding. Don't do it!" Chen Xiaoqi, seeing this, panicked a little. She was just saying it on purpose, but she never expected that Li Lili would actually bring her a red envelope, so she quickly started to speak.

Then Li Lili smiled and said, "No matter what you say, this red envelope is what I should give. You know, with such a happy occasion in the family, how could I not give you a red envelope, right? Okay, okay, we're family, no need for formalities, just put it away."

"Sister-in-law," Chen Xiaoqi said, looking at Li Lili with emotion.

"Alright, alright, it's all what I should do, don't think about it so much. Just accept it." Li Lili quickly said again.

Then Li Lili said with a smile, "Don't complain that it's not enough."

Upon hearing Li Lili's words, Chen Xiaoqi immediately burst out laughing. Then, she said with a smile, "Yeah. I know. Haha."

“That’s right, this is the real you.” Li Lili continued.

Then, Chen's mother hurriedly said, "It seems that your father and I really have to bring something out."

"Mom," Chen Xiaoqi said to her mother in surprise after hearing this.

Then Chen Xiaoqi quickly said, "Mom, no need. I know how you mean, you don't need to bring anything else. I'm already very satisfied. I don't need anything else. Hehe." Chen Xiaoqi said while still smiling contentedly.

"Yes, that's what I was thinking too, but looking at the situation now, it seems like that won't work. Oh well, I'll just take mine out too," said Mrs. Chen with a sigh.

"What?" Chen Xiaoqi asked her mother in surprise.

Then Chen's mother quickly said, "Here you go, mine."

At this moment, Chen's mother took out a red envelope from her bag and immediately handed it to Chen Xiaoqi.

"Mom, you should keep it for Dad, don't give it to me," Chen Xiaoqi quickly said upon seeing this.

"Your dad also prepared something for you," Mrs. Chen said with a smile when she saw this.

"Huh?" Chen Xiaoqi looked at her father in surprise...

Then, Chen's father calmly took out a red envelope from his pocket and handed it to Chen Xiaoqi.

"This is a small token of our appreciation, you must accept it today. Okay, that's all. Don't refuse anymore." Mr. Chen said decisively.

As expected of Mr. Chen, he didn't beat around the bush and spoke directly to Chen Xiaoqi.

So Chen Xiaoqi looked at her father, then turned to look at her mother, before putting the red envelope away. She then said, "Okay, I'll accept it. Thank you, Mom and Dad, brother and sister-in-law."

Chen Xiaoqi thanked them happily, and then laughed heartily.

However, at that moment, Duoduo walked towards Chen Xiaoqi and the others. After Duoduo arrived, she quickly asked, "Sister Xiaoqi, how are things going on your end? Are you still busy?"

Upon hearing what Duoduo said, Chen Ling quickly said to Chen Xiaoqi, "It's okay, you go ahead and do your work. We'll talk later."

"Okay, I'll head over now," Chen Xiaoqi said with a smile.

So Chen Xiaoqi put his arm around Duoduo's shoulder, signaling her to turn around, but he quickly put his arm down.

"Duoduo, what's wrong?" Chen Xiaoqi asked Duoduo.

"Let me double-check the procedures for you. Let's make sure nothing goes wrong," Duoduo began.

Upon hearing Duoduo's words, Chen Xiaoqi immediately burst out laughing. Then she said, "Duoduo, how can you be so cute? Let me tell you, don't get excited. With me, you won't be afraid of these kinds of things happening. Have you forgotten what I used to do? An actress! Do you think I can't handle these kinds of situations? Even if I accidentally say something wrong, I can recover, right? It's okay, don't get so worked up. Don't worry, you have to relax, stay calm, stay calm."

"Yes, yeah, Sister Xiaoqi, look how I got so nervous I forgot about that too. Okay, okay, let's not talk about that anymore, I have something else to tell you." Duoduo quickly added.

Chapter 592 Ribbon-cutting Ceremony 3

However, Chen Xiaoqi, who was standing to the side, immediately looked up at Duoduo after hearing what she said, waiting for what Duoduo was going to say next.

"President Li is out picking people up by himself. They're almost here now. Let him come back," Duoduo said softly to Chen Xiaoqi.

"You don't need to tell me about this. I didn't ask him to pick me up, as you know. He wanted to go himself, what could I do? I didn't want him to go either. But there was nothing I could do. Oh well, go and call him back. It's almost ten o'clock, he should come back and get ready." Chen Xiaoqi said helplessly at this moment.

At this moment, Duoduo quickly nodded and then went to the door to find Li Ran...

"Mr. Li, almost everyone has arrived, and it's almost time. Why don't you go and get ready?" Duoduo said hurriedly as she ran over.

"Ah, oh, okay." After hearing what Duoduo said, Li Ran quickly checked the time and then immediately began to speak.

Then Li Ran strode over, and when he saw Chen Xiaoqi, he quickly said, "Look at my memory, it's really terrible now. I actually forgot something as important as the time. If Duoduo hadn't reminded me, I would still be standing at the door. I thought there was plenty of time."
