Chapter 2804: Chapter 1741: Beep—

"Bang."

In the underground parking lot of the thirty-year-old Wuqi Building, the forest berry red Volvo headlights lit up, followed by the dull sound of a car door slamming.

Luo Li’er sat in the driver’s seat, threw her bag on the passenger side, and calmed her breathing.

That’s right.

This SUV, worth five hundred thousand, was also bought by her sister.

And the detail is more about why it was a Volvo?

The answer is obvious.

——Safety.

Just ask yourself.

How can you not adore such a sister?

Therefore.

The deeper her love for her cousin, the deeper her resentment toward certain someone.

A breakup should be dignified; no one should need to apologize.

That’s right.

Breaking up now is not too late.

But those who are still upstairs eating and drinking are truly insatiable!

Undoubtedly. ℯℓ.

The glorious image built over time by someone is thus destroyed.

Once her breathing steadied, Luo Li’er picked up the phone, not to make a call, but to turn it on.

How to use it when it’s off?

Alright.

As expected, someone will now lose the trust of a junior schoolmate.

"Ding——"

Sure enough.

As soon as the phone powered on, unread messages popped up.

"Don’t drink and drive; remember to call a designated driver."

Tsk.

Hypocrite!

As for why it was a message instead of a call, it’s certainly self-aware, knowing the junior wouldn’t answer.

Oh, wait a minute.

The current relationship is a bit messy, somewhat complex. It seems they can no longer simply interact as senior and junior.

In such a situation, it’s indeed time for a poem:

"If life were as it first met～"

Luo Li’er’s mind involuntarily recalled the rooftop of the school library, where she was sketching and unexpectedly witnessed the other’s "farewell" with an ex-girlfriend.

At that time, the other’s demeanor was so clean and clear.

Luo Li’er’s emotions surged even more, and without hesitation, she opened her contacts, but a call came through first.

[Mom]

Is Time Law not exceptional?

Inside the Volvo, which embodies safety in every detail, in the rearview mirror, Luo Li’er’s youthful face showed no expression, with cuteness and detachment clashing yet unifying on the same face. She pressed the answer button, picked up the phone, and placed it to her ear.

"Why was your phone off?"

That’s right, it was Pei Ning’s voice.

"I was just in a meeting and got off work just now."

This isn’t deceit; it’s a benign lie. Luo Li’er’s tone betrayed no difference, asking, "What’s up, Mom?"

"What’s up? Can’t I call to chat without a reason?"

"Of course not. It’s just that I’m about to drive back, so how about I call you back when I’m home?"

"Don’t rush."

Pei Ning seemed eager, unable to wait for her daughter to get home, her voice stern yet soft, "Mom has a question for you. Answer honestly, no lies."

"Then tell me what it is first."

"Naughty girl."

Pei Ning jokingly scolded, then went straight to the point, "Your sister has a boyfriend, right?"

Luo Li’er pressed her cherry lips tightly.

"Even if you don’t say it, Mom knows. Someone just spent half a day wandering about. You little brat, you keep secrets even from your parents..."

"I know nothing."

Learn from the wise, and introspect on the unwise.

Someone’s morality is corrupt, degraded, and eroded, but Luo Li’er did not go with the flow, always true to her words, quite just.

"Still holding out? Mom isn’t fooling you; it’s your sister’s boss, Jiang Chen, right?"

Pei Ning was smug, as if nothing could escape her keen eyes.

"He’s quite handsome, young, with such a big career. A perfect match, truly perfect."

In front of her daughter, she didn’t need to conceal her feelings, expressing her thoughts freely.

"Mom, this is my cousin’s business, let’s not interfere."

"Listen to you. Of course, we have no say in this. It’s just, for Duoduo, for your uncle and aunt’s happiness. Knowing your sister’s affairs, they’ve worried themselves gray-haired. This finally resolves a concern..."

Hearing her mom sigh, Luo Li’er had only one thought—she shouldn’t have vented on the pot, but on her face instead.

"...Uncle and aunt, what’s their attitude?"

"Need you ask? Such an excellent son-in-law, your aunt’s crow’s feet have had no rest. I’ve rarely seen her so happy."

Luo Li’er fell quiet.

"What’s up? Why so glum? Aren’t you happy for your sister?"

Pei Ning continued, "I know you’re close with your sister, but women, after all, must marry. Besides, isn’t he your senior? A double blessing, closer than close."

Pei Ning couldn’t see, but her daughter’s face was all dark.

If her uncle and aunt knew someone had a girlfriend and had no plans to break up...

That scenario, Luo Li’er dared not imagine.

"Alright, Mom, I won’t keep talking. I need to drive now."

"Hey—— wait a minute. Even your sister found her ideal partner. Shouldn’t you also consider... du du du..."

Luo Li’er hung up.

Everything must involve marriage.

Can’t one live brilliantly and splendidly alone?

Even the once deeply infatuated guy has become a greedy, heartless player. Are there still men worth trusting in this world?

If someone knew the impact they had on the junior’s worldview, would there be a twinge of guilt?

After hanging up on her mother, Luo Li’er leaned back in her seat. Without calling a designated driver or driving off, she stared at the bustling parking lot for nearly ten minutes, lost in thought.

One point cannot be denied.

Having wealth and power is indeed good.

It allows you to deceive the world.
