Chapter 33

The whole night passed, except for Xiao Zhao, no one took the initiative to contact Ning You.

Call Li Chao, the voice prompt has been on the call; call home and ask him to go back to his villa tomorrow morning to discuss in detail.

As for the person Ning You most wanted to contact, there was no news at all when such a big thing happened.

He dug out Li Mu's phone several times and dismissed his thoughts several times.

Ning You wanted to see when this person would contact him.

The next morning, instead of going to the company, Ning You returned to the villa where her parents lived.

There was a familiar Rolls-Royce parked in the garage. It was Li Chao's car. Ning You was not surprised, but he didn't expect that Li Chao's parents would also come here.

"Ning You." Ning Xin beckoned to Ning You, "Come here and call your uncle and aunt."

There were two rows of dark gray leather sofas in the spacious living room, Ning You's parents sat on one side, and Li Chao and his parents sat on the other side.

Ning You had seen the two elders of the Li family before, and they were a little bit fatter than their parents, probably because they had put down a lot of work and felt relaxed physically and mentally.

"Hello, uncle and aunt." Ning You greeted the two elders, and then sat down beside her parents.

He calmly looked at Li Chao, who was facing him, and found that this man was not nervous at all, and nodded at him with a smile.

The two families continued to chat about the marriage contract. Ning You took a moment to keep up with the rhythm, and the more she listened, the more she felt like an outsider.

"Administrative punishment doesn't matter, as long as it can be solved with money, it doesn't matter." Ning Xin said.

"Paying the fine is really a trivial matter, but I'm afraid it will affect the Ning family." Li Chao's mother said.

"Don't worry about this, that's what I meant." Ning Xin said.

Ning You had a lot of things to ask, but he was not easy to intervene on such occasions. Li Chao raised his chin lightly at him at the right time. He understood Li Chao's eyes and said to the elders present, "Mom and Dad, Aunt and uncle, why don't you talk first, I'll take Li Chao to see my room."

Ning Xin nodded, and then went back to business.

Ning You got up and walked towards the second floor, Li Chao consciously followed behind him. When the two turned into the stairs, Li Chao still teased, "Would it be inappropriate to go to your room? If Li Mu knew, he would definitely trouble me."

Ning You didn't intend to take Li Chao to his room. He took the person to the large terrace on the second floor and asked, "Is it my mother's intention to check your company?"

"That's right." Li Chao took out a metal cigarette case from his pocket and asked Ning You, "Do you mind?"

There is a smoking area on the terrace itself, and it's not a public place. Li Chao asked for advice so sincerely, if Ning You said he minded, he would seem stingy.

But he was still very upset. Mingming Li Chao knew that he didn't like people who smoked, and he asked this on purpose, as if he was saying, "I have this virtue, what can you do with me".

"Why did she do this?" Ning You continued to ask.

"She has always known about illegal emissions. After all, every company will have a little problem." Li Chaodao, "You know, they are all exploiting loopholes in the policy."

Ning You knew this. No private company would pay employees three times their wages on holidays in accordance with the "Labor Law".

Li's factory discharges illegally. He believes that it must also be controlled within the scope of administrative punishment. It can be solved only by paying a fine, and it is impossible to send himself to prison.

"The recent pressure from public opinion is a little hard to deal with, so my aunt simply asked me to expose myself and solve the problems left over from history at one time." Li Chao said, "This is also for the sake of Ning's family. It is better to expose it now than after marriage. .In this way, our family background is clean, and your family doesn't have to worry."

Ning You suddenly recalled that the last time Li Chao went to Ning Xin's office to talk about things, it wasn't that Li Chao took over Ning's affairs unilaterally, and Ning's was also taking over Li's affairs.

"Then what do you mean by resigning?" Ning You asked again.

"Quiet the public opinion, this incident will definitely have an impact on the company's image." Li Chaodao, "But don't worry, I will go to the overseas business department as the general manager."

Who would worry about you old fox...

"So you left a bunch of mess for Li Mu?" Ning You frowned.

"His image is very good, and he has been an environmental protection volunteer for so many years, which will bring positive comments to the company." Li Chaodao.

Ning You suddenly wanted to get angry, but his good upbringing still made him suppress his temper and said, "Aren't you taking advantage of him? He has been doing environmental protection for so many years just to clean up the mess for you?"

"You can think so, but you should also think about why he is willing to come back." Li Chao let out a breath of smoke and said lightly, "It's not for you."

Ning You was caught off guard by choking, and for a while she lost her position of accusing Li Chao.

"Of course you don't have to think so." Li Chao smiled and said again, "This is a win-win cooperation. If he wants to come back, I will give up his seat and everyone will be satisfied, okay?"

Ning You did think about letting Li Mu come back, but he didn't expect that Li Mu would face so many troubles when he came back.

"Li Chao, what do you think?" Ning You couldn't help but ask, "Do you want him to come back to help you solve the problem, or do you blame him for taking your place? He's getting in the way."

"I only love my career, Ning You." Li Chao squeezed the cigarette in his hand, "Li Mu's return will definitely disrupt my career, so I don't want him to come back. But he is my brother after all, since the matter has been In this way, I also create opportunities for him.”

In the end, Li Chao was still ambiguous and did not really express his position.

But these are no longer important, because Li Mu's return has become a fact.

"Where is he now?" Ning You finally asked the question he was most concerned about.

"He." Li Chao smiled, a little gloating, "I have a headache in the company."

After the Li family left, Ning You was called to the study by Ning Xin.

Ning You had already accumulated a lot of grievances about the engagement, so when Ning Xin said to him, "Let's talk about your engagement", he rarely said in a bad tone: "You still know it's my engagement."

"You don't care about the company, and you don't know what I told you." Ning Xin sent Ning You over in a few words, and continued to talk about the business, "I heard that you want to change the candidate for marriage."

Ning You really wanted to change people, but he hadn't figured out Li Mu's attitude, and it was not convenient to talk about it now. "That's the idea," he said vaguely.

"Why?" Ning Xin asked, "In terms of company management, Li Chao should be more mature, and since you are the same age, he can lead you better. Li Mu is only twenty-five years old, no matter how good he is, he is still too good. Being young may not be for you."

Ning You did not refute Ning Xin, but replied with three short words: "I like it."

"Yuyou, your marriage is not your business alone. In the future, you will take over the Ning family. You need someone to help you take care of the company's affairs." Ning Xin said earnestly.

"Mom." Ning You also said seriously, "I admit that Li Chao is suitable for managing the company, but he is too complicated, I don't want to deal with him all day, I'm afraid I will die young."

"How can it be so exaggerated." Ning Xin frowned complainingly.

"I know you like his ability, but even if I marry Li Mu, Li Chao can still participate in the operation of the company, and the two are still married, and nothing will change."

"Also, Li Mu's image is better than Li Chao's now, and their company still relies on him to clean up the mess. Why are you so disrespectful to him?"

"Okay." Ning Xin sighed helplessly, "Looks like Li Chao is right, I can't tell you."

Ning You suddenly thought of something and asked, "By the way, did he initiate Li Chao's resignation?"

Fortunately, Xiao Zhao also said a lot of conspiracy theories, and everything is under Li Chao's control.

"That's right, I don't think it's necessary, but he said that if Li Mu came forward, the matter would be resolved better." Ning Xin said, "He is right, plus you are fascinated by Li Mu again, I can only agree ."

"How can you be fascinated..." Ning You whispered, completely forgetting how righteous he was when he said "I do" to Li Mu.

But then again, Li Chao was indeed not as bad as he thought.

At first, Li Chaoying didn't want Li Mu to come back, but then something happened to the company, and Li Mu's attitude was tough, so he changed his mind. Although he sacrificed his current position, he also got rid of the mess he had .

As for Li Mu, he also has losses and gains, so the two brothers have reached a perfect balance, and neither has sacrificed for the other.

"You asked Li Mu to come see me when he's done." Ning Xin said, "I want to see how charming he is."

This is a bit tricky...

Ning You looked at his phone, this stinky brother hadn't contacted him yet.

After coming out of the villa at home, Ning You drove to the office building of Li's family. But after just wandering around the door, he drove the car back to his company.

After waiting until the evening, Ning You still did not receive a call from Li Mu.

He was reading and doing yoga, but he couldn't calm down. Fortunately, he realized in time that anxiety can make people old, so he went to take a beautiful bath, put a mask on himself, and lay down. Calm your mood on the sofa.

It was at this moment that the doorbell rang suddenly.

Ning You asked "who" several times, but no one answered. He had to get up from the sofa and go to the videophone to check the surveillance outside the door.

"Li Mu?"

After seeing the person on the screen, Ning You immediately tore off the mask from her face and put it aside, and opened the door.

I saw the man outside the door in suits and leather shoes, with his scruffy beard neatly tidied up, three buttons loosely untied at his neckline, and his tie irritably pulled into a circle—an urban barbarism that Ning You had never seen before.

"Yuyou." Li Mu said and fell in, his huge body almost hanging on Ning You.

Ning You faintly smelled the familiar scent of verbena, but more of it was the smell of alcohol.

"Why did you drink like this?" Ning You frowned and helped Li Mu into the room, stumbled and put him on the sofa.

Li Mu kept hugging Ning You and refused to let go, causing Ning You to fall along with him.

"That group of shareholders is very difficult to deal with." Li Mu mumbled in a daze, obviously quite drunk.

"Then you should really learn from your brother." Ning You wanted to get up and get a cup of hot water for Li Mu, but the person holding him was overbearing and refused to let him go.

"I'm back." Li Mu said unhappily, "You are mine now, don't mention my brother."

"Yes, yes, let me go first."

"No." Li Mu hugged Ning You tightly, "I know you don't want to hear my explanation, but I still have to explain it."

Ning You couldn't help rolling his eyes, why do men talk more when they drink?

Well, he has no position to say Li Mu. He himself did the same, and said he wanted to peek at Li Mu taking a bath.

"I didn't answer your question right away because I knew that as soon as I agreed, I would have to go back to the city with you." Li Mu said, "That's an assumption for you, but not for me."

Ning You lay on Li Mu's chest and listened to his heartbeat quietly.

"Do you know how unlikely it is for you to give up everything? But I'm different. If I agree, it must be me who will take action, because this is realistic, and I don't want to be a liar with rhetoric." Li Mu still looked at Ning You stubbornly and asked, "Do you think I'm right?"

Ning You understands what Li Mu means, whether he is willing to pay for each other, this is not an empty talk between ordinary couples, but the reality in front of them.

There is always someone to sacrifice among them, Ning You's sacrifice is huge, Li Mu's sacrifice is relatively small, from a common sense, it can only be Li Mu and Ning You returning to the city.

It is precisely because of this that Ning You's "I do" is romantic, while Li Mu's "I do" has practical significance, so he did not dare to make promises lightly.

"Yes, yes." Ning You said.

Smelly man, don't want to bother with him.

"I admit that I wasn't ready when you asked me, because I wasn't sure if I could handle the conflict between me and my brother." Li Mu said, "I also thought about how difficult it is for the two of us. Well-"

"What?" Ning You immediately raised her head, her pointed chin resting on Li Mu's chest.

"But I can't, Yoyo." Li Mu rubbed the back of Ning You's neck, "I don't know where the line between 'like' and 'love' you're talking about is, but I know how much I like you, The days when you stayed by my side, I liked that you went to play in the woods and pretended nothing happened, liked that you let me drive you to diarrhea in the middle of the night, liked that you called my brother—"

"Shut up for me!" Ning You couldn't help covering Li Mu's chattering mouth.

"I like you, Yoyo." Li Mu held Ning You's hand, "When I settle the matter at hand, let's go back to work in the mountains, and return to the city when necessary. The mountains have great scenery, and we can go back to work every day. Riding in the sun."

Recalling the days in the cabin, a faint smile appeared on Ning You's mouth, and he replied, "Okay."

"We'll go get the certificate tomorrow." Li Mu said again.

Ning You raised her eyebrows unexpectedly, thinking that this person really knows how to make progress.

But he thought that it was a matter of time, so he casually replied, "Okay."

However, Li Mu didn't respond for a long time, Ning You raised his head and found that this person had fallen asleep at such a time.

He narrowed his eyes dangerously, his eyes blazing with fire.

Does this stinky brother want to get married? !

The author says:

Li Mu in his sleep: I am happy to have a wife (*^▽^*)

Li Mu woke up in the middle of the night: It's so cold, where's my wife?
