Chapter 686: Men must have ambition

~7 min read 1,366 words

Li Xiao was so free and easy, and Chen Wenjun, as a good friend, was sincerely happy for him.

"I'm relieved that you can let go completely. Come, Li Xiao, I'll toast you."

The two raised their glasses and drank the wine in the glasses again.

Near midnight, Li Xiao dragged his body full of alcohol back home.

"Oh my, why did you drink so much?" Mrs. Li asked with concern while helping her son change his shoes and take off his down jacket: "Aren't you going out on a date with the little daughter of the Qiu family? Did you drink?"

Li Xiao was still conscious, and just waved his hand when he heard it: "No, I drank with old classmates."

"Tsk, why drink so much? You will have a headache and feel uncomfortable tomorrow morning. Are you hungry? Mom will..."

"Stop nagging." Li Wan sat on the sofa and interrupted his wife: "It's noisy. He has been back for so many days, and he only went out to have a meal with his classmates today. What's wrong with drinking? He is not a child anymore."

Li Xiao has changed a lot since he came back this time, and Li Wan is very satisfied with his son's changes now, so he is more tolerant of him.

And Mrs. Li is also cautious at home now, especially when facing Li Wan, for fear that he will send her abroad again.

So she didn't get angry at the moment, just said aggrievedly: "I'm just concerned about my son, I'll go cook him some hangover tea."

Li Wan didn't care about her anymore, but looked at his son leaning on the sofa and asked: "Xiaozai, did you see your Uncle Qiu today?"

Li Xiao nodded, although he was drunk, he was still conscious: "He was talking about business at Yunshang Tiangong today. I heard Keying say that Uncle Qiu wants to acquire Yunshang Tiangong."

"How are you and Keying?"

Li Xiao tilted his head and looked at his father, nodding with a smile: "Pretty good."

"Dad knew you would like it. If you get along well, date well. Your Uncle Qiu also has a good impression of you."

"Dad, I know you let me approach Keying for the cooperation with Li Group. I don't think I can have a long-term future with her. I still have to go abroad to study soon.

After the cooperation is facilitated, we will be almost done."

"You think so?" Li Wan straightened his expression, sat next to his son: "In your eyes, is Dad such a short-sighted person?"

Li Xiao looked at his father with drunken eyes, a little puzzled.

Li Wan shook his head with a smile, and then sighed: "You, there is still a lot of room for improvement. Dad is paving the way for your future."

"What do you mean?" Li Xiao also sat up straight, and the alcohol woke up three points: "Dad, you, are you really letting me be with Qiu Keying?"

"What's wrong with that?" Li Wan spread his hands: "You think she is good, she also likes you, and your Uncle Qiu and I are satisfied. This is a matter of course!"

The more Li Xiao heard, the tighter his brows twisted: "But, but I thought I only needed to act on the scene. My liking for her was all acted out. I don't like her!"

Because it was acted, he didn't care.

He also felt that he acted quite well, and Qiu Keying was fascinated by him.

"Xiaozai, you are still too young. Think carefully about what this relationship between you and the Qiu family's daughter will bring you if it becomes a reality. Whether you like it or not is not important at all. What is important is what this relationship can bring you."

Li Wan slowly picked up a cigarette and lit it, took a fierce puff before saying: "To put it tactfully, feelings can be cultivated slowly. I have seen the daughter of the Qiu family several times. She is beautiful, simple and cute, and has good cultivation. She is a very good child."

"But to put it bluntly, even if you can't really like her, can you not like the power behind the Qiu family?"

He looked at his son and said seriously: "You will always take over the group from Dad, but Dad can only give you so much. The height of the Li Group is predictable."

"In the eyes of ordinary people, our family is indeed well-off. But looking at the upper class of Longcheng, our family can only be in the middle at most!"

"If you can get the power and support of the Qiu family, you can pull the Li Group to a higher height after Dad. You are already a man now. Don't take feelings and love too seriously. You must have ambition, do you know?"

A few words woke up Li Xiao's wine.

"I added some honey to this hangover tea, be careful of being hot." Mrs. Li didn't know what the father and son said, just brought a cup of hangover tea out and put it in front of her son.

Li Xiao slowly came back to his senses, feeling a little restless for a while.

Because he thought he was just acting in a play to cooperate with the group for his father, but he didn't expect his father to think so far.

But what his father said was right. Their family is considered a wealthy family in the eyes of ordinary people, but compared with those top wealthy families in Longcheng, their family is not worth mentioning at all.

And Qiu Keying likes him. If he can really be with Qiu Keying as his father expected, maybe he can really borrow the power of the Qiu family in the future.

With the support of the Qiu family, he can show his skills more after taking over the group!

It seems to be influenced by Li Wan, Li Xiao also thought about things for a long time.

And under the influence of alcohol, thinking about it this way, it actually awakened the ambition he had buried in his heart.

After all, that is not ordinary help...

That is the Qiu family!

Thinking about it this way, Li Xiao's fists clenched involuntarily, as if he had made some kind of determination.

At that time, the Shen family was also lively.

Shen Ci told her mother early that she invited Uncle Jiang to dinner at home in the evening and asked her mother to cook a few more dishes.

And A-Li is also at home today.

"Sister, why did you trim Yoda's hair like this? It's short on the body and long on the head, like a little lion." A-Li held Yoda and didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

Shen Ci explained: "I was halfway through the repair when I received a call and had something to do, so I hurriedly held it and went. I will take it to redo it when I have time tomorrow."

"When will you join the group for Director Li An's play?"

"Still waiting, but I have a brand event to attend in a few days."

Shen Ci frowned when she heard it: "Didn't you say you wouldn't let you participate in this kind of activity before?"

"Endorsement activity, no way, sister." Shen Li expressed understanding: "Sister Kuan finally negotiated the 'Brand Ambassador' for me, I have to go."

After all, it is an international big brand.

Shen Ci nodded gently: "If there are any activities you don't want to go to and don't know how to refuse in the future, remember to tell me, sister will help you get it done."

"Sister, I know you are good to me." A-Li leaned forward and hooked her sister's arm, and said sincerely: "But I found that the longer you stay in this circle, the less you can be too self-centered and willful."

"I can have your support, I can be protected very well, and I can be very selfish and willful. But you know me, I can't do it without considering others at all." ===== CHAPTER 687 =====
