How impolite to not let people talk.

But the looks from around made Li Xiaoyun extremely uncomfortable.

Luckily, Zhao Dingli’s office is on the top floor.

Many people got out of the elevator early and couldn’t continue going up with them.

Slowly, only she and Liu Minghao were left in the elevator.

Li Xiaoyun finally breathed a sigh of relief, and the pressure was instantly gone.

But unexpectedly, after the elevator stopped at the top floor.

Li Xiaoyun had just stepped out of the elevator door when Liu Minghao suddenly shouted, "Miss Li, this way!"

Li Xiaoyun was startled by his sudden shout.

It was estimated that everyone on the whole floor heard his voice.

Li Xiaoyun thought, luckily she and Zhao Dingli aren’t in a romantic relationship, so no one will overthink it.

If it were a couple, with Liu Minghao’s behavior, wouldn’t it make people misunderstand that Zhao Dingli might have an affair or something?

Liu Minghao’s behavior was typically like the kind seen on TV, informing others ahead of time.

Li Xiaoyun was just thinking this when she suddenly heard hurried footsteps.

The sound of leather soles on the marble floor was particularly clear.

As the sound got closer, Rui Changhuai soon appeared in front of her.

"Miss Li!" Rui Changhuai was especially enthusiastic.

"Mr. Rui," Li Xiaoyun called out.

"The president just finished a meeting and thought you hadn’t arrived yet, so he asked me to come down to greet you. I didn’t expect to hear Minghao’s voice and know you had arrived," Rui Changhuai explained.

"Oh, then has it kept Ding Li waiting?" Li Xiaoyun asked as she walked.

Having been brainwashed by Zhao Dingli, Li Xiaoyun had gotten used to calling him "Ding Li" after hearing it repeatedly in her ear.

Not only in private, but even in public, she’d forget to change her way of addressing him.

Like now, Li Xiaoyun called him that so naturally, without the embarrassment of calling him that initially.

She didn’t even feel like calling him that would surprise others.

Rui Changhuai and Liu Minghao both paused for a moment.

But then a strong, gossiping light burst out from their eyes.

The two exchanged a look, and Rui Changhuai quickly said, "Miss Li, this way."

Li Xiaoyun had never been to Changlin before.

She hadn’t planned on doing business with Changlin before, so she never came.

Let alone Zhao Dingli’s office.

Following Rui Changhuai, she saw that the door to Zhao Dingli’s office was actually open.

Zhao Dingli sat inside, facing the door, and without Rui Changhuai needing to say it, he had already spotted Li Xiaoyun.

Had there not been too many people coming and going outside, preventing him from being watched like a mascot, Zhao Dingli would’ve gone out to wait himself.

Finally, when Li Xiaoyun arrived, Zhao Dingli didn’t even wait for her to enter before coming to the door.

Behind Li Xiaoyun, Liu Minghao gave Zhao Dingli an "OK" gesture, indicating that he had completed Zhao Dingli’s instructions.

Beside him, Rui Changhuai understood well.

Zhao Dingli didn’t just instruct Liu Minghao to pick up Li Xiaoyun.

Including having Liu Minghao make it known along the way that Li Xiaoyun had arrived was also Zhao Dingli’s instruction.

Li Xiaoyun had arrived, so the two of them left.

However, their task wasn’t complete.

Rui Changhuai also had a task to proactively spread gossip about Zhao Dingli and Li Xiaoyun.

So that noon, for the first time, Changlin employees enjoyed such a pleasant gossip experience.

Without needing to be asked, Rui Changhuai actively spread the news.

What’s done once will likely be done again.

Since there was already a first time supervising Zhao Dingli, thereafter, Li Xiaoyun would come every day to supervise and have lunch with Zhao Dingli.

At the start, it was Zhao Dingli who initiated the reminders.

After reminding so many times, they naturally developed a mutual understanding.

Just as Li Xiaoyun was pondering whether coming every day was appropriate.

Zhao Dingli seemed to have perfect timing and said, "Having you prepare breakfast for me every morning, eating at home before leaving, supervising my lunch, and then having dinner together. I feel my stomach has improved quite a bit. Recently, I haven’t had any more stomach pain or nausea."

This left Li Xiaoyun speechless, unable to voice what she originally intended to.

"You didn’t even eat breakfast properly before?" Li Xiaoyun asked.

"I didn’t eat breakfast at home before. I would just buy a sandwich at a convenience store after arriving at the company," Zhao Dingli said. "Once I got to the office and started working, I’d forget I bought breakfast."

"Sometimes I’d remember after an hour or two, sometimes not until lunchtime arrived," Zhao Dingli pitifully described. "If I remembered early, I’d eat my breakfast, but if late, I wouldn’t be hungry by lunchtime and had no appetite, so I wouldn’t eat. If I remembered late, I wouldn’t want to waste the food, so I’d just have it for lunch."

In short, it was very easy for him not to eat his three meals properly.

Li Xiaoyun thought that after dining together, she really had gotten Zhao Dingli to eat his three meals on time.

But what would happen after she moved out?

Lunch and dinner were okay, but breakfast would be troublesome.

Li Xiaoyun hadn’t had the chance to mention moving out to Zhao Dingli.

Then Saturday came, and Zhao Dingli took Li Xiaoyun to the old house.

Zhao Dingli said even the third elder would be there.

Li Xiaoyun immediately felt a bit of tension at meeting the family.

Ye Fei, fearing Li Xiaoyun’s nervousness, pulled Zhao Gushen and the kid to the old house early to wait for her.

So that as soon as Li Xiaoyun arrived, she could see her to help ease the tension.

Though Li Xiaoyun hadn’t asked her to.

But Ye Fei put herself in her shoes.

She remembered well how nervous she was when visiting for the first time as Zhao Gushen’s girlfriend.

But Ye Fei forgot Li Xiaoyun was completely unaware of her situation.

She thought she was visiting as Ye Fei’s close friend and Zhao Dingli’s friend.

Of course, she was still quite nervous.

But it was a lot better than visiting as Zhao Dingli’s girlfriend.

Ye Fei had forgotten this minor detail and overthought it.

Zhao Dingli and Li Xiaoyun walked in.

The little guy had already rushed over: "Godmother!"

"Xiao Mo." Li Xiaoyun quickly picked up Xiao Mo and gave him a kiss on his soft cheek, "I missed you so much!"

The little guy looked eagerly at Zhao Dingli: "Fourth Grandpa!"

Hurry and praise the universally beloved me!

Zhao Dingli: "..."

Oops, he forgot to remind Xiao Mo to adjust the seniority a bit in advance.

Ye Fei quickly came over and took the little guy away.

To prevent Li Xiaoyun from holding Xiao Mo while meeting elders, which would be too awkward.

"Ma’am, Sir," Li Xiaoyun greeted, having met them before, it was much more natural now.

After that, she saw there was an elder sitting in a wheelchair next to the two.
