Chapter 1079: What a Paragon Among Men
Sister Wang thought, "Aren’t you the one who disdains their conditions?"
But someone appreciates them.
They’re married, and your daughter is still single.
Mrs. Li immediately picked up on Sister Wang’s meaning.
She instantly got angry.
Mrs. Li didn’t hold back and said straight away, "Hey! There’s really no choice. Our Xiao Yun, let’s not talk about other things, just her income, it’s way too high. So young, it’s quite difficult to find someone with a comparable income. Unless she looks for those at the general manager level or above, but they are older and already married, obviously not suitable."
"Men her age are rare. We’re not too picky, but if she finds someone with an average income, the guy would feel pressured because Xiao Yun is so capable. Nowadays, many men aren’t that competent, but they have quite a strong sense of male superiority," Mrs. Li said. "It’s honestly a bit worrying."
"In my opinion, being a girl, it’s not easy. Being capable, she lives comfortably. However, on the same note, it’s hard to get married. If she were an ordinary career woman with an ordinary salary, it wouldn’t be hard to get married, but life after marriage would be tough too." Mrs. Li shook her head with a click of her tongue.
Just like Sister Wang’s daughter, hasn’t she often needed help from her family?
Being a civil servant is a stable job, but the salary has a fixed amount.
During holidays, the things they give out can cover part of the living expenses.
When the child attends Kindergarten, they can go to the agency Kindergarten, which doesn’t have high fees.
But for extra-curricular interest classes, there’s no reimbursement.
The couple’s salaries struggle to cover all expenses.
Everyone has their own worries.
Sister Wang, it seems like her daughter has solved the major issues of life, getting married and having children, and she can let go of life’s burdens.
But in reality, she can’t really let it go.
She still needs to worry about her daughter’s life.
Sister Wang shouldn’t be smugly mocking her either!
Sister Wang’s smile indeed faltered.
All around, people indeed know that the Li Family’s daughter is capable.
She bought a house, a car, has connections, can earn money herself, and is about to be promoted to manager.
Mrs. Li is retired, and Mr. Li took early retirement.
The two of them, having nothing to do at home, go out traveling every couple of months.
They go for ten, twenty days at a time, rest a bit after returning, then go out to have more fun.
Usually, they wander around domestically.
The country is vast, especially the west, north, and southwest, places where the land is wide and the population is sparse, the scenery is majestic, rare to visit.
Some people haven’t visited once in their lifetime.
But the Li couple have explored all over.
And they go abroad once a year.
These expenses, they can’t sustain them with just their little retirement pension.
Isn’t it Li Xiaoyun who gives money to her parents?
Letting them go out and play as they please.
If there’s anything to envy, the neighbors all around truly envy their carefree lifestyle. Aside from urging marriage, there’s nothing else to worry about.
Besides being single, there’s really nothing else wrong to find.
Mrs. Li is a low-key person, neighbors only know Li Xiaoyun earns a lot, but don’t know exactly how much.
Even though they don’t know the exact amount, seeing how Mr. and Mrs. Li spend, often traveling domestically and abroad, they know that Li Xiaoyun earns quite a lot.
If it weren’t for Sister Wang frequently bringing up Li Xiaoyun’s singleness as if it were some sort of discrimination, Mrs. Li wouldn’t have shown off at this moment.
Finally, Mrs. Li reached her own building first and quickly bid farewell to Sister Wang, heading home.
Li Xiaoyun’s blind date was still home, so Mrs. Li felt a bit embarrassed to complain to Mr. Li.
Originally, a blind date should allow the young people to go out for coffee or something, which is a better way to get to know each other.
Coming to the house is indeed a bit inconvenient.
It’s just that Mrs. Li feared Li Xiaoyun wouldn’t agree, so she had no choice but to resort to such a plan.
The young man on the blind date was also very polite, quickly stepping forward to say, "Auntie, let me help, should I put them all in the kitchen?"
"Oh, no need, no need, just go and sit." Mrs. Li said, "Lao Li, go and have a good chat with Xiao Xu."
"I’m sorry you had to busy yourself when I was just dropping by." Xiao Xu said.
"Don’t feel pressured," Mrs. Li smiled and said, "It’s also because Xiao Yun’s friend is coming over, I thought it would be lively if everyone’s together, and you two could avoid feeling awkward. Even without you, I would’ve prepared a big table, it’s just an extra pair of chopsticks."
"Her friend is coming over, don’t feel uneasy, they’re all young people, it’ll be easier to have a conversation." Mrs. Li said with a smile.
"Okay."
What Mrs. Li didn’t know was that she had just parted from Aunt Wang at the entrance.
Li Xiaoyun and Zhao Dingli had also arrived.
Zhao Dingli circled around the area once and finally found a spot across the street to park.
His car was a bit large, and finding a spot in such a small county was quite difficult.
Usually, wherever he goes, there’s enough parking space for his car.
Li Xiaoyun’s neighborhood isn’t old, the environment is good, and all buildings are high-rise.
Parking spaces are divided into underground and above-ground ones.
Proper parking spaces already had owners.
Zhao Dingli had to wedge his car in.
Just so happens, he parked it under Sister Wang’s building.
Sister Wang had just parted from Mrs. Li and was heading back across the street.
She had just approached and hadn’t stepped on the stairs yet when she saw Zhao Dingli’s car park over.
Sister Wang instinctively slowed her steps.
There are plenty of luxury cars around the city, even in their neighborhood.
But she hadn’t seen one this opulent.
Sister Wang wasn’t very knowledgeable about cars, she just recognized some famous car logos, not specific models.
At this moment, she just found this car particularly large and impressive.
She couldn’t help but take another look.
Who knew by taking a few more looks, being a bit slow, she witnessed the car door opening.
Seeing a man stepping out, with the car being so high, his movements still looked smooth and graceful.
That face was exceedingly handsome, carrying a mature charm.
Even though Sister Wang was older, she couldn’t help but take an extra glance, her face slightly blushing.
Sister Wang usually watched idol dramas at home and read some romance novels suggested by advertisements on her phone.
Initially, it was out of curiosity, but then she got addicted, unable to put them down.
Sister Wang thought, the man before her was like a living embodiment of a novel’s CEO male lead!
Not just within the neighborhood, but even when she goes shopping or to malls, she sees plenty of luxury cars.
There are young guys, and also middle-aged and older men.
But such a handsome one, Sister Wang really hadn’t seen before!
Just saw the man walk around to the other side of the car, open the passenger door, and a girl stepped out too.
Sister Wang clicked her tongue, thinking, handsome and charming, what an extraordinary person this is.
