Then, Mr. Chen said with a smile, "Haha, I was just joking with you. I didn't expect you to react so strongly. If you don't like it, I won't say it again. Please don't be angry with me, okay?"

Mr. Chen looked at Mrs. Chen and saw that she seemed a little angry, so he quickly changed his tune and explained to her.

"Come on, you've already said everything I don't like. You said you wouldn't say anything if I didn't like it. I bet you don't even believe yourself. I'm past the age where I like to hear sweet words from you. Don't expect me to forgive you just because you say a few nice things." Mrs. Chen said coldly to Mr. Chen.

At this moment, Mr. Chen seemed quite helpless. Faced with Mrs. Chen's condition, he didn't know what to say.

“If you talk to me like that, I probably won’t know how to reply. I don’t know how to answer you. Do you think this is okay? So, in the future, please don’t be so direct with your words, okay?” Mr. Chen began to persuade him earnestly.

Hearing this, Li Lili, who was standing nearby, tried her best to suppress her laughter.

"Oh, really? You're being direct now? Well, isn't being direct a good thing? It saves you from making wild guesses, right? I've noticed you're becoming less and less principled. You don't even want others to tell you the truth anymore? You can't do this." Then, Chen's mother spoke calmly.

After listening to what Mrs. Chen said, Mr. Chen shook his head helplessly, feeling that Mrs. Chen was really too talkative, and he didn't know how to explain it to her for a moment.

"Alright then, say whatever you want. Don't think I'm being too blunt. Anyway, I've made up my mind. I can't control what you say. I'll just enjoy myself quietly. You don't need to worry about me. Is that okay?" At this moment, Mr. Chen spoke up calmly.

Mr. Chen thought that since you're being so direct, I might as well be direct too and say what I want to say.

However, at that moment, Chen's mother smiled and said, "Well, you're quite direct. You think I'm being too direct? And you won't let me speak?"

"No, Mom and Dad, aren't you two finished talking yet? There are still a lot of people sitting here. Aren't you planning to stop or what? I'm listening to you two talk, and it feels really weird." Just then, Chen Ling, who was standing to the side, quickly spoke up with a smile.

Chen Ling's main concern was that there was also Mrs. Shen present, and it was really inappropriate for Mr. and Mrs. Chen to be arguing like this.

Then, Chen's mother smiled and said, "Yes, you're right. What are we two chatting about here? It's so weird. Okay, okay, let's stop now, haha. That's enough." After hearing Chen Ling's words, Chen's mother immediately understood what he meant and quickly said with a smile.

However, at this point, Mr. Chen naturally understood Chen Ling's meaning. Therefore, he didn't reply to Mrs. Chen's words.

Then, Mrs. Shen smiled and said, "Actually, it doesn't matter. If you two want to chat, then you can continue. We find it quite interesting to sit there and listen to you talk."

"Oh dear, don't say that. It's so funny. I'm so angry with him every day. I really want you to come over and talk to me. But because of this, talking to him every day is like fighting. I'm so annoyed." Chen's mother said helplessly after hearing this.

When Chen's mother thought about her recent conversations with Chen's father, she felt a little scared.

But sometimes when I think about it, I think it's quite interesting. However, because Mrs. Chen is stubborn, she has never mentioned this advantage herself.

"Haha, so it turns out you're the one who's annoyed by my dad arguing with me every day, which is why you don't want me and Ningxue to argue every day." At this moment, Chen Ling cleverly spoke up.

"Yes, what's wrong? You only just realized it now? Isn't it a little too late?" After hearing what Chen Ling said, Chen's mother did not deny it, but readily admitted it.

However, upon seeing this, Chen Ling suddenly felt that it was pointless and then stopped saying anything.

Chen's mother laughed first, and then stopped talking.

"So, the point is, no matter what, don't lose your temper with others. Otherwise, everyone's patience is limited. If you really start arguing or something, and people take it seriously one day, that wouldn't be good, right? What do you think?" At this moment, Mr. Chen turned to Chen Ling and said with a smile.

Chapter 999 Another Conversation

Mr. Chen's meaning was very clear: he agreed with Mrs. Chen's point of view. In the end, he still sided with Mrs. Chen. All those words he said were useless.

Just then, Chen's mother smiled and said, "Haha, these are all experiences I'm sharing with you as someone who's been through it all. Look at your father, isn't he angry with me now? He has a lot on his mind, but he just doesn't tell me usually."

"Ah, yes, yes, what you said seems to make a lot of sense." Just then, Li Lili quickly spoke up with a smile.

"You two are quite interesting, acting like little kids. Always throwing tantrums," Mrs. Shen said with a smile, looking at Mrs. Chen and the others.

After hearing what Mrs. Shen said, Mrs. Chen was immediately annoyed, but then suddenly felt that it made sense, and there was nothing wrong with it. She was absolutely right.

Then, Chen's mother nodded in disbelief and said with a smile, "If you hadn't said that, I might never have realized these problems of our own. After talking so much about the children, I realized that I'm in the same situation. I'm really ashamed."

"Haha, what do you think? Isn't that right?" Mrs. Chen said with a smile.

However, at this moment, Li Lili smiled and said, "There's one more thing I haven't told you yet."

"Huh? What's going on?" Chen Ling and the others asked in unison after hearing this.

Seeing my grand gesture, Li Lili suddenly felt a little embarrassed, so she quickly said with a smile, "Oh, it's nothing."

"It's alright, just say what you want to say." At this moment, Chen's mother immediately spoke to Li Lili.

Seeing this, Mrs. Shen didn't say anything, but quietly looked at Mrs. Chen, waiting for her to explain.

After meeting everyone's gazes, Li Lili immediately smiled and said, "Ah, I see. Okay, then I'll tell you."

Li Lili's tone was somewhat weak, which only made everyone more curious about what she wanted to say.

"Okay, fine, just say what you want to say. Tell me, what happened?" Then Chen Ling asked, seemingly confused.

"What else could it be? My wound needs a dressing change, I need to go get some dressing changed. It's already itchy, so Qingqing needs you to look at it for a while." Li Lili said somewhat apologetically, looking at Chen's mother and the others.

"Oh, is that all? It's nothing, I was wondering what happened." Chen Ling laughed and said immediately after hearing this.

"No, it's nothing serious, it's just this." Li Lili said with a smile.

However, at that moment, Shen's mother immediately spoke up, "That's perfect! I'll go put some medicine on your wound. I haven't had a chance to check how it is yet."

“Okay, then you go with him to change his dressing. Here, give Qingqing to me, I'll watch over him for a while.” Then, seeing this, Chen's mother quickly walked up to Li Lili and immediately spoke up.

"Okay, sure," Li Lili replied with a smile.

However, at that moment, Li Lili smiled at Chen's mother and began to speak.

After Li Lili handed Qingqing to Chen's mother, she and Shen's mother slowly walked back to the room...

However, it wasn't long before they were back in their room.

After closing the door, Shen's mother immediately asked, "Where is the medicine box?"

"Yes, it's over there," Li Lili said, pointing to the drawer in front of her.

Upon seeing this, Shen's mother immediately walked in the direction Li Lili was pointing and then took out the medicine box directly from inside.

"This one," Mrs. Shen said, taking out one of the bottles of medicine and then asking Li Lili to confirm.

"Yes, that's right," Li Lili nodded.

Then, Chen's mother smiled and said, "Okay, then I'll change your dressing right away."

While Shen's mother was speaking, she had already begun preparing to change Li Lili's dressing.

Compared to Chen's mother's skills, Shen's mother seemed to be no less skilled. In no time, Shen's mother had already changed Li Lili's medicine.

"Ningxue, how have you been lately? Is anything bothering you?" Just then, Shen's mother suddenly asked Li Lili.

Li Lili, who was standing to the side, was startled by Shen's mother's sudden change in attitude. She then immediately smiled and said, "Ah, I'm fine. There's nothing that's bothering me. You know that, don't you? They're all very good to me. I have no problems."

"Okay, that's good. But I'm still a little worried about you. By the way, have you really thought things through regarding the child?" Mrs. Shen said with a smile.

Seeing Shen's mother's worried expression, Li Lili quickly patted her hand and said earnestly, "Yes, I've thought it through, and it's not anyone else's idea. It's just my own. Don't worry, I've really thought it through. There's nothing wrong with saying it. After all, we always have to look forward. There are so many people who are looking forward to another little life joining us."

"Yes, what you said isn't wrong, but Mom still wants you to be happier. I still want to tell you that you don't need to worry about these things in the future. You just need to live your life well." Mrs. Shen said to Li Lili with great concern.

Shen's mother felt sorry for Li Lili mainly because she had already figured out that Li Lili must have other reasons for doing this, and that reason was probably to make the family feel more at ease and happy. However, although the family also cared about the child, they also cared about Li Lili very much.

Chapter 1000: The Greatest Wish 1

Seeing how much Shen's mother defended her, Li Lili was truly overjoyed. But what good was saying that? She still had to consider reality.

"Mom, don't think so much. I really didn't think of anything else. Look at Qingqing, isn't she so cute? Anyway, I think having a child like Qingqing would be a good choice." Li Lili said to Chen's mother with a smile.

Looking at Li Lili, Shen's mother felt sorry for her, even though Li Lili didn't seem to be lying.

"Alright then, it's up to you to decide. As your mother, I'll support you. But just remember, no matter what, I care more about you. But then again, we really can't be so selfish. Sigh, this is really a dilemma." Just then, Mrs. Shen said with a smile.

Li Lili was well aware of what Shen's mother had said, as Shen's mother had said it more than once.

"Yes, Mom, of course I know. Thank you so much for loving me. Haha." Li Lili nestled against her mother and said sweetly.

Seeing Li Lili's expression, Shen's mother immediately burst into laughter. Then, with a doting look, she said, "Why are you still like a little child? When will you grow up?"

"Huh? Mom, am I still like a child? I thought I had grown up. Haven't you noticed that my way of doing things is much more mature than before?" Li Lili asked immediately after hearing this.

Li Lili thought to herself that she had indeed changed a lot recently. Could it be that no one had noticed? To the point that Li Lili even began to doubt herself.

"Yes, you have indeed matured a lot, that's progress, that's good, just keep doing that in the future. Is that alright?" Mrs. Shen said to Li Lili with a smile.

"Haha, sure, sure," Li Lili nodded in response.

"It's about time, I should go back." Then, Shen's mother spoke to Li Lili with reluctance.

Ms. Shen had originally planned to go back in the afternoon, but since she didn't see Chen Ling, she waited until dinner time. After dinner, they ate fruit together, and also helped Li Lili change her dressing and chatted for a while. It was indeed getting late.

"Well, Mom, it's getting late, so I won't keep you any longer. I'll go with Chen Ling to see you off later." Just then, Li Lili, who was standing to the side, quickly spoke up with a smile.

When Shen's mother heard Li Lili say she wanted to take her home, she immediately waved her hand and refused, saying, "No, no, no need. Don't come to take me home, otherwise you'll be back too late. I came by myself this morning, and I didn't have anything to do, and it was very convenient. I'll go back by myself later, okay?"

"Can this morning be the same as the evening? Of course not. It's not safe at night. It's not that far, we'll take you there later." Li Lili said with a smile.

Li Lili genuinely felt that going home at night wasn't safe, so she decided to take Shen's mother home with Chen Ling.

Just then, Shen's mother continued firmly, "Don't say that. It's really not necessary. What's unsafe about it? If I need to, I can just take a taxi. It's very convenient. Alright. You can't argue about this with me."

"Alright then, let's go out first, and we can talk about other issues later," Li Lili said, seeing the situation.

Li Lili thought that since they couldn't reach an agreement, she might as well go out and ask everyone's opinion.

Then, Mrs. Shen nodded and followed Li Lili out.

By the time Li Lili and Shen's mother came out, the conversation in the living room had ended. However, after seeing Shen's mother and the others come out, they started talking again...

"How is Xiaoxue's wound? Is it better?" Chen's mother asked first.

"Yes, it's nothing. When I was cleaning it for him, I was wondering how big the wound was, but it turned out to be just a small one," Mrs. Shen replied immediately after hearing this.

This Mrs. Shen really spoke so boldly, so casually, while Li Lili was still feeling the pain.

“This is definitely her real mother. Haha.” Li Lili couldn’t help but laugh again at this moment.

After hearing what Li Lili said, Chen Ling really wanted to laugh out loud, but he felt it was inappropriate, so he forced himself to suppress his laughter, which made his face turn red.

However, at that moment, Shen's mother smiled and said, "It's about time, I'll head back now."

Upon hearing this, Chen's mother immediately stood up and said with great reluctance, "Ah, are you going back now?"

"Yes, it's getting late now, but it's okay. I can come back and play when I have time. It's the same thing," Mrs. Shen replied with a smile.

Actually, Ms. Shen also likes to stay here. There are people to chat with. Otherwise, she usually has nothing to do when she is at home alone.

"That's true, but who knows how long it will be before we can come again?" Mrs. Chen muttered.

"Haha, it's okay, you can come to my house to find me too. Right?" So Mrs. Shen immediately said.

Seeing this, Mrs. Chen had no choice but to nod in agreement.
