However, at that moment, she saw Li Lili laugh immediately after speaking. Li Lili thought to herself, "So that's what Chen's mother meant," and couldn't help but sigh. "That's just how women are," she thought. "They always make sure they look their best before going out."

“Yes, what else could I mean? Haha, alright, alright, hurry up and get ready. We'll go over there after we finish eating.” Chen’s mother quickly spoke to Li Lili.

Hearing this from the side, Li Lili was startled again. She thought to herself, "Oh, so they're not even taking a nap at noon. They're really proactive."

"Mom, why are you in such a hurry? It's not that serious. We can eat first, rest a bit, and then go. Right? Otherwise, I'll be so sleepy while shopping." Li Lili looked at Chen's mother and directly voiced her thoughts…

Li Lili genuinely felt that if she didn't take a nap at noon, she wouldn't have the energy to do anything else in the afternoon, not even go shopping.

"Yes, yes, that's right, that's exactly how it is. Okay then, let's rest for a bit and then go over, is that alright?" Mrs. Chen said hurriedly.

Judging from the tone of Chen's mother's voice, Li Lili knew that she must be very impatient. But thinking about this, Li Lili couldn't help but want to laugh…

"I really feel uncomfortable inside. Haha." Just then, Chen's mother said with a smile.

"Huh? What's wrong? What's wrong?" Li Lili asked immediately upon seeing this.

Then Chen's mother shook her head, and then smiled and said, "No, I can't really feel it, but I just felt a little flustered, it was just a momentary thing."

"What happened? You were fine just now when you were looking at clothes. Sit down first, let me pour you a glass of water and see if that helps." Li Lili immediately spoke up when she saw this.

Seeing the dramatic change in Chen's mother's condition, Li Lili couldn't help but feel uneasy. She didn't know what to do.

However, at that moment, Chen's mother was seen listening attentively to Li Lili while gently stroking her chest with her right hand, trying to ease her feelings.

Li Lili handed the water to Chen's mother in no time, and then quickly said, "Mom, try drinking some water first and see how you feel. Take a break."

"Okay, it's alright, don't worry. I'm probably just hungry, don't worry about me," Mrs. Chen replied with a smile.

Upon hearing this, Li Lili, who was standing nearby, immediately smiled and asked, "Oh, Mom, are you hungry?"

"Ah, it's alright, I feel a little hungry," Mrs. Chen replied casually.

However, at that moment, Li Lili's tense heart suddenly felt a little more at ease. Then she smiled and said, "Mom, if you're hungry, then I'm much more relieved. That's how you feel when you're hungry, your heart races. Well, you didn't even tell me you were hungry so I could have gone to find you something to eat. Okay, you wait here, I'll go find you something to eat."

"No, no need. It's almost time to eat. You can come over after you finish eating. It's alright," Mrs. Chen quickly said, declining the offer.

It was indeed almost lunchtime, and Aunt Yang's side was probably already mostly ready. So, Chen's mother thought there was no need to go out of her way to find something to eat.

"Well, okay then, I'll go ask Aunt Yang how the food is coming along," Li Lili said, seeing this.

After speaking, Li Lili immediately turned and walked outside. Once she reached the kitchen, she immediately asked a question.

"Aunt Yang, is lunch almost ready?" Li Lili asked with a smile.

"Yes, yes, the dumplings we're having today will be ready soon. I've already put them in the pot. You can all get ready to eat now," Aunt Yang replied immediately after hearing this.

"Okay, I'll go call them over for dinner now," Li Lili said with a smile.

Then Li Lili rushed into Chen's mother's room in a panic and immediately said, "Mom, dinner is ready. Let me help you over."

As Li Lili spoke, she began to work on it.

However, at that moment, Chen's mother smiled and said, "Oh dear, you don't need to help me. It's not that serious."

As Mrs. Chen spoke, she began to try to stand up. And indeed, as soon as she finished speaking, she stood up…

"How are you feeling?" Li Lili asked Chen's mother from the side.

"Yes, it's quite nice. I don't feel anything else. Let's go eat." Mrs. Chen replied with a smile.

Then Li Lili immediately nodded to Chen's mother, took her arm, and the two walked outside together.

At this moment, Li Lili spoke up again with a smile, saying, "Oh right, Mom, didn't I just cut some fruit for you? Why do you still feel hungry? Did you not eat enough this morning?"

"Yes, I think so. Anyway, this morning I felt like I hadn't eaten enough, but I just couldn't eat anything more," Mrs. Chen replied with a smile.

Chen's mother is really like a child. What does it mean to feel not full, but also unable to eat?

However, at that moment, Li Lili, who was standing to the side, said with a smile, "Oh, my mind is really in a mess."

"Huh? What are you talking about?" Upon hearing this, Chen's mother immediately asked. She simply couldn't understand what Li Lili meant by those words.

Then Li Lili, who was standing to the side, smiled and explained, "If you're not feeling well, I'll naturally get worried, so my mind is all over the place. But it's okay, you don't need to worry about me. Please sit down. I'll go call Chen Ling over for dinner."

While Li Lili was speaking, she started pulling out a stool for Chen's mother, trying to get her to get down first and wait for dinner.

"Okay, then you can go ahead." Seeing this, Mrs. Chen immediately nodded and said with a smile.

Then they saw Chen's mother walk over to Li Lili quickly, and then she smiled again.

Li Lili quickly walked to her room, opened the door, went inside, and then said to Chen Ling, "Are you still busy? It's time to eat."

Chen Ling, who was busy, immediately turned to look at Li Lili after hearing her voice, and replied with a smile, "Okay, I know, I'll be right there."

As Li Lili listened to Chen Ling's words, she began to walk inside.

After walking over to Chen Ling, Li Lili first glanced at Chen Ling's documents, then smiled and said, "Okay, hurry up, you can come back to work after you finish eating."

"Yes, I know, don't worry, I'll be there soon. By the way, is Dad back yet?" Chen Ling then asked.

Upon hearing this, Li Lili immediately shook her head and said, "Oh, Dad, he's not back yet. Now that you mention it, it really reminds me. I need to call him."

After Li Lili finished speaking, she immediately took out her phone and started calling Mr. Chen...

The phone hadn't rung for long when Mr. Chen answered it.

"Hey, Dad, lunch's ready. Come home and eat." Li Lili said with a smile as soon as the call connected.

However, a hurried voice came from the other end of the phone. Mr. Chen said with a smile, "Okay, I'm already downstairs, almost home."

After Mr. Chen finished speaking, he hung up the phone immediately...

"Dad's back, he's downstairs." Li Lili then turned to Chen Ling and said.

Upon hearing this, Chen Ling immediately laughed and then said with a smile, "Yes, that's good. Dad has made great progress this time, haha, you're back for dinner so early. That's great."

Just then, Chen Ling was talking for a year, while also unable to stop giggling...

Looking at Chen Ling, Li Lili was puzzled by his smile, so she asked, "What are you laughing at? I have no idea what you're thinking."

"Ah, I was laughing at Dad. He's learned his lesson this time." Chen Ling replied with a smile immediately after hearing this.

Hearing this, Mr. Chen immediately rolled his eyes at Chen Ling. He thought to himself, "What is this kid thinking? Can't he even bear to see his own father make a fool of himself? Why does he keep bringing up things he shouldn't be talking about? He really knows how to rub salt in the wound!"

Then, Mr. Chen smiled and said to Chen Ling, "Son, can you shut up?"

“Okay, Dad.” Mr. Chen replied immediately after hearing this.

So the family went over to eat...

However, at that moment, Mr. Chen, who was standing to the side, asked with a smile, "What did you all do today?"

"What do you mean, 'what can you do'? What else can you do at home?" Chen's mother replied immediately after hearing this.

At this moment, Chen's mother glanced at the others around her again before continuing to eat.

"Oh, well, I thought you two were playing something fun together," Mr. Chen said casually.

Mr. Chen felt that at least a whole morning had passed, and he had thought that something had been done, but it turned out that nothing had been done.

However, at that moment, Chen's mother quickly spoke up with a smile and said, "Oh, right, there's something else I just remembered. This morning, Xiaoxue and I looked for clothes, but we couldn't find anything suitable for the class reunion. So we decided to go to the mall this afternoon to see if we can find anything suitable."

"Huh? With so many clothes, can't you find one that fits?" Mr. Chen asked casually after hearing this.

Because Mr. Chen didn't think too much about it. He just thought, "It's just a piece of clothing. With so many clothes, how can I not find a suitable one?"

However, at that moment, Li Lili, who was standing to the side, said with a smile, "Dad, these are all old classmates who haven't seen each other for so many years. Shouldn't we dress a little more formally?"

Chen's mother, who was standing nearby, immediately chimed in, "Yes, did you hear that? That's right. Demeanor is very important."

“Yes, you’re right. A good temperament is very important, and you already have it, so it doesn’t matter what you wear. You know, no matter what you wear, you’re always very elegant.” Mr. Chen said admiringly.

What Mr. Chen said was his honest opinion; he truly believed it. In his eyes, Mrs. Chen was probably the most perfect woman. Of course, this perfection encompassed many aspects.

However, at that moment, Chen's mother was delighted by what Chen's father said. But the clothes still needed to be bought.

Then, Mrs. Chen smiled and said, "Yes, you're right. I do have a very elegant demeanor. But I still have to tell you, the saying 'clothes make the man' is true.' So, I need to choose an outfit that matches my style. You understand, right? Just like you usually think about buying clothes that suit your status. It's the same principle."

"Oh, if that's what you mean, then I understand. You just want to buy clothes, right? Why did you beat around the bush like that? Okay then. Buy them if you want. It's not a big deal." Just then, Mr. Chen, who had overheard Mrs. Chen's words, suddenly realized what she meant and then smiled and said to Mrs. Chen.

"Oh, that's exactly what I mean. I'm so glad you understand. You're right, that's exactly what I was thinking. I just need to buy a few clothes." Mrs. Chen continued speaking.

Then Mr. Chen nodded, and then said with a smile, "Okay, then you guys go shopping this afternoon. I won't go with you."

"Tch, we didn't say you had to come with us, honestly. You're really dreaming." Mrs. Chen was a little disappointed after hearing Mr. Chen's words, but on the surface, she still tried to appear strong as she spoke to him...

Chen Ling glanced at his mother's expression and sensed that she might be saying one thing but meaning another, so he quickly tried to smooth things over by saying, "Mom, I'll drive you there today."

"No need, we don't need a man this time. You don't need to take the two of us. We can easily take a taxi ourselves. It's not like it's inconvenient or anything. We don't need your help," Chen's mother replied firmly after hearing this.

However, at this moment, Chen Ling was turned away and didn't know what to say, so he could only grin softly and say "Oh."

"Do you need someone to help you carry your things?" Mr. Chen asked quickly, sensing that Mrs. Chen seemed a little angry from her tone.

"Oh, no need. We can carry our own things. You're all busy people with your own lives, so you don't need to worry about us. We'll handle it," Mrs. Chen said calmly.

Chen's father and Chen Ling, standing to the side, felt a chill run down their spines as they watched Chen's mother's expression. They were both deeply uneasy, wondering what she was planning this time.

Seeing the awkward atmosphere during the meal, Li Lili decided to ease the tension. She immediately laughed and said, "Haha, the two of us are strong women! Let's not even talk about Mom, just look at me! Do you think I'm weak? You can't even talk about carrying things; I have plenty of strength for moving things. Besides, women are at their strongest when shopping, so you can rest assured."

After Li Lili finished speaking, she continued to smile...

Chapter 914 Hesitant and stammering

Then, Li Lili, who was standing to the side, started laughing incessantly while glancing at Chen's mother.

"Stop laughing, it looks so fake," Chen Ling said to Li Lili, unable to help but complain.

Li Lili, who was standing nearby, was actually quite angry after hearing Chen Ling's complaints. She felt that Chen Ling was truly exasperating; why was he focusing on this?

"Oh, okay, I admit I have a low threshold for laughter." Li Lili looked at Chen Ling and said angrily.

Li Lili's anger was mainly reflected in Chen Ling's words, because she felt that Chen Ling's words lacked emotional intelligence.

Hearing what Li Lili said, Chen Ling chuckled. Then he said calmly, "I just chuckled too."

Looking at Chen Ling's behavior, Li Lili found him very strange and decided not to pay any more attention to him.
