Chapter 1003

In a tea restaurant with elegant style, Lin Biqi pushed the door and entered, her fingertips lightly pressing the lower edge of her sunglasses, her eyes scanning the shop lightly.

In the position with the best view by the window, Mrs. Li was already seated, holding her phone and seriously focusing on a cup of silk stocking milk tea to take a picture.

Lin Biqi's lips raised slightly, hooking a decent smile, and walked toward her slowly.

"Auntie." Approaching, Lin Biqi called out enthusiastically, inevitably feeling a bit sorry: "The road is a bit congested, I'm really sorry."

"It doesn't matter, Qiqi, sit down quickly." Mrs. Li was still enthusiastic, stood up, and pulled Lin Biqi to sit down.

Lin Biqi was in a low-key black suit today, the style was simple, but the fabric and workmanship details were all high-end. It's just that this outfit was instantly overshadowed by the rare leather diamond-buckle Hermes Birkin in her hand.

Mrs. Li's gaze subconsciously fell on that bag, watching Lin Biqi place it aside slowly.

Mrs. Li was clear about the strength of the Lin family, which was considered above middle class, but definitely could not be considered a wealthy family, and the foundation was in Shengang.

Compared with the Li family in Longcheng, there must be a gap.

But this bag, even she didn't have it. Lin Biqi could actually buy it, which made Mrs. Li inevitably suspicious.

Women are inevitably sensitive to bags and accessories, so Mrs. Li couldn't help but ask with surprise: "Qiqi, you actually have this bag? It's very hard to buy, you can't even get it with matching goods."

Lin Biqi was stunned at first, then looked at her bag, and then smiled knowingly: "Auntie, you are talking about this bag? It is indeed hard to buy, this was also obtained through a friend."

Mrs. Li nodded with a smile, and didn't feel embarrassed to continue asking more, just glancing at the bag from time to time.

She also wanted to have one.

At this time, the waiter stepped forward to start serving dishes, and Mrs. Li also reluctantly took back her attention, turning to Lin Biqi and saying gently: "Qiqi, Auntie has been busy for a while, and your uncle's health hasn't been very good for a while, so I didn't have time to make an appointment with you."

"It doesn't matter, Auntie, then is Uncle better now?" Lin Biqi also asked with feigned concern: "Is it still the hospitalization matter last time?"

"No..." Mentioning Li Wanchang, Mrs. Li's face was immediately covered with sorrow, and she sighed softly, "It was fine after the hospitalization last time, but it relapsed later. Your uncle wanted to hide it from me, but I still heard it—it was angered by Shen Ci."

Speaking of this, Mrs. Li looked at Lin Biqi, "You still remember her, right? That is Li Xiao's girlfriend before."

Lin Biqi's expression was calm, pretending to think for a moment, and nodded slowly: "Remember. Back then, Li Xiao brother was dying for her, and later went abroad, wasn't it because of her?"

"Isn't it!" Mrs. Li was so angry that she gritted her teeth, "I don't know what her intentions are, but she only dated Li Xiao for half a year, and it's been so long, yet she is still entangled with our Li family."

Lin Biqi pursed her lips and smiled lightly, her tone light: "Being able to toss Li Xiao brother like that back then, she was not a simple character."

"More than not simple..." Mrs. Li sneered, "Not only her, even her mother climbed up to Jiang Yuanliang, the means of the whole family are really amazing."

Lin Biqi frowned slightly when she heard this: "Auntie, you mean, the wife that Jiang Yuanliang married later is Shen Ci's mother?"

"Yes, now Shen Ci is Jiang Yuanliang's stepdaughter!"

This news was really beyond Lin Biqi's expectation. She naturally knew about the wedding that shocked the country, but she was not familiar with Shen Ci's mother and had never connected the two.

Her eyes darkened, as if digesting this sudden information secretly.

"Your uncle is also working hard now. Isn't the group bidding for that Winter Olympics project? 'Jiangdong Group' has also entered the game. Your uncle doesn't want to compete with 'Jiangdong Group' head-on. These days, he is discussing countermeasures with the team and your Li Xiao brother, saying that he can only find opportunities in small projects."

"Your uncle's hair has turned white. How much money can those small projects make? 'Jiangdong Group' didn't participate in these project bids before. This time, it suddenly entered the game contrary to the norm. I think it's Shen Ci who is playing tricks!"

As if finally finding someone to confide in, Mrs. Li told Lin Biqi about the resentment in her heart, just as complaining.

Lin Biqi listened very seriously, but it involved business matters, and she couldn't be sure whether the information in Mrs. Li's mouth was accurate, so she asked tentatively: "Auntie, did Uncle tell you all these?"

"Not at all!" Mrs. Li curled her lips, aggrieved, "Your uncle wouldn't tell me about these business matters. I heard it when he and Xiao Zai were talking about these. He might feel that I am stupid and don't understand, so he didn't avoid me. I don't understand the professional ones, but I can understand these, right?"

"Alright Qiqi, don't talk about these anymore, I ordered some refreshments, eat while it's hot." Mrs. Li's expression closed, greeting Lin Biqi to eat: "No one accompanies me to eat these on weekdays. Your uncle and Xiao Zai are average about refreshments, but I am a Shengang person, so I occasionally come out to satisfy my cravings."

Saying that, she clipped a shrimp dumpling into Lin Biqi's bowl: "The taste of this shop is good, you try it."

"Okay, thank you Auntie, you eat too."

During the meal, Mrs. Li inevitably cared about Lin Biqi's situation, but most of Lin Biqi's answers were ambiguous, as if she answered, but it seemed she didn't say anything.

Mrs. Li didn't take it seriously, just thinking that her survival after the disaster was a blessing, and nothing was more important than health.

After eating, Lin Biqi personally sent Mrs. Li to the parking lot. When parting, Mrs. Li held Lin Biqi's hand and said with emotion: "Take good care of yourself, if you have anything in Longcheng, tell Auntie."

"Don't worry, Auntie, you also take care of yourself, and Uncle too, you must take care of your health."

Mrs. Li got in the car, then rolled down the window to signal Lin Biqi to go back quickly, and then started the car and left.

Lin Biqi stood in place, waving from afar, until Mrs. Li's car disappeared, and the smile on her face disappeared without a trace.

She turned around, took out her phone, and dialed: "Target the small and medium-sized projects for bidding, 'Li's' gave up the bidding for large projects."

"Why give up so easily?" The man on the other end of the phone sneered: "According to my investigation, Li Wanchang is a very ambitious person."

Lin Biqi snorted disdainfully: "So what if he has ambition? Ambition is a fart in front of absolute strength. 'Jiangdong Group' has entered the game, and you have to avoid its edge, and we only target 'Li's'. Whatever they want, we grab it."
