BXBX NOVEL VPAATP - V4C87 – Visiting Relatives
Thinking till here, Li Xiaohong excitedly flipped the phonebook. But unfortunately, there was no phone number of mine in there! When I came last time, I had told Li Xiaohong once, but because she was bent on making Zheng Shaopeng her son-in-law, she didn’t care about my phone number, so she didn’t write it down on the book. Later, when I left, she forgot to ask again. So now, Li Xiaohong discovered that she didn’t have my phone number at all!
However, there is a saying “Where there is a will, there is way!”, but even after searching all the way to Rome, she couldn’t find my phone number no matter what, but Li Xiaogang had thought of a way to save the day! The previous time that big boss Lu Haotao gave her his name card, Li Xiaohong had saved it!
Afterward, when she saw that press conference on the television, she had enlightenment dawn upon her that the Three Rock Entertainment was also my company! Only then did Li Xiaohong understood that Lu Haotao was my subordinate!
She dialed the number according to the number on the card. After the phone rang twice, it connected.
“Hello, I am Lu Haotao, who might you be?” Lu Haotao never gave this number to any random Tom, Dick, or Harry, so now that he received a call on this number, he thought that it must be someone familiar, therefore, Lu Haotao quickly picked up the call!
“Hello, little brother Liu, I am your elder sister!” Li Xiaohong said enthusiastically.
Little brother Lu? F***! Which motherf***er has so much courage that she dares call me little brother Lu? Lu Haotao wasn’t a fool, so he still said warmly, “My elder sister? Who might you be?”
“I am Li Xiaohong! Yang Mei’s mother!” Li Xiaohong continued.
“Li Xiaohong?! Yang Mei?!” Lu Haotao thought for a while, but couldn’t think of people he knew with those names! So he said impatiently, “I don’t know you, did you dial a wrong number?”
“No, no! Brother, don’t hang up the call yet and listen to me. Have you forgotten, the last time my son-in-law came, you invited us to dinner in the Harbour Resort?” Li Xiaohong hurriedly answered.
“Your son-in-law?” After Lu Haotao heard, a flash of lightning appeared in his mind and he felt that lightning just passed him by. In his heart, he remembered the Buddha and asked for forgiveness as he thought how he almost offended a great person!
Lu Haotao naturally thought of me first because there weren’t many people he would personally treat to dinner. With Li Xiaohong’s reminder, he immediately remembered. Last time, he had thought that I was just a high-level personnel of the Three Rock Entertainment who had good relationships with Guo Qing. But now, my identity was public and Lu Haotao immediately understood that I was the biggest authority behind the Three Rock Group! {TL Note: Three Rock Group is further split into Three Rock Gang and Three Rock Entertainment.}
“Oh, so it’s aunt. You see, you calling me brother is making me muddleheaded. The Liu family is a generation above me, so you are also my elder so how can you call me brother? Please call me Lu Fatty or Little Tao!” Lu Haotao enthusiastically said as he stood up from his seat.
Li Xiaohong thought that when I was calling you brother a moment ago, you were so indifferent, yet the moment you heard my son-in-law’s name, you immediately fell one generation and became a son! Li Xiaohong was very satisfied with this feeling though. It was really the acme of enjoyment and vanity. If her relatives and friends knew that the underworld godfather of D City called her aunt, oh how much face she would have!
“Hehe, good, I will call you Little Tao. Oh, right, do you have Little Liu’s phone number?” Li Xiaohong asked.
“Phone number? Aunt, you don’t have that?” Lu Haotao asked as he felt strange.
“I...... I...... I did have, but as I had recorded it on a telephone and didn’t keep it too carefully, your uncle threw it away! It’s like this, a couple of days ago, my daughter called and said that they were going to come home in a few days, but she didn’t say when specifically, so I wanted to ask Little Liu to give me a specific time so I can prepare beforehand!” Li Xiaohong hurriedly made a uniform out of whole cloth.
“So that’s how it is. Aunt, you wait for a moment....... The telephone number is 139000000xyz!” Lu Haotao didn’t doubt her words and told the number to Li Xiaohong.
“Well, then this is all. Thank you, I now have to quickly call my son-in-law!” Li Xiaohong said.
“You are welcome. Aunt, um... when Chief Liu comes back, you must let me know. I will arrange a reception for everyone! I will trouble you with it! Thank you!” Lu Haotao said politely.
“Okay, you can rest assured that aunt will let you arrange the first treat!” Li Xiaohong thought that it was even better that you asked us out to eat a meal that you arranged. I must thank you for I am going to really enjoy it.
“Then I will Thank you!” Lu Haotao said happily.
This kind of feeling was really good! If Little Liu was really my son-in-law, that would be even better. Li Xiaohong started to fantasize but she hadn’t forgotten the actual matter at hand, so right after she hung up the call to Lu Haotao, she dialed my number.
“Hello?” I looked at the caller ID on the phone and felt somewhat strange. It was a landline number from another city. Only a few people knew my phone number and only a scant few used a landline to call me, moreover, the landline was from outside the city!
“Oh, Little Liu, hello, I am your mother-in-law!” On the other side of the phone, Li Xiaohong couldn’t repress her joyful mood.
“Mother-in-law?” I felt even more strange. From my wives, I had only met the mother of Zhao YanYan, Chen Wei’er, and Xia Jing. I had not seen anyone else’s mother! But I am certain that the person on the phone wasn’t the mother of any of the others.
“Oh, Little Liu, is it that you can’t distinguish because you have so many mothers-in-law?” Li Xiaohong said with a smile.
“Eh...... Hehe, then I will respectfully ask, who are you?” I really didn’t know who she was.
“I am Yang Mei’s mother, from D City. You have been here!” Li Xiaohong quickly explained. She also knew that I have several women, therefore she didn’t think much of it.
“So it’s aunt! Hello, what matter were you looking for me for?” I said warmly.
“All right, are you and Meimei in the same place?” Li Xiaohong asked, pretending not to know.
“Yang Mei? Ah... she’s at the company!” I thought about the matter and thought that maybe, Mother Yang didn’t know what really happened between Yang Mei and me, so I didn’t say the truth either.
“Are you getting along well?” As Li Xiaohong saw that I didn’t deny, she was very happy and quickly asked.
“Oh... we are getting along really well. Aunt, you can rest assured,” I answered perfunctorily.
“That’s good. I and your uncle are always thinking about you two. Right, Little Liu, I also know your real status from the TV, and I also know that you have other women outside. I don’t have any objection to that, but you cannot disappoint our family’s Meimei! She has given her all to yo! Moreover, my relatives here also know her relationship with you, so if you don’t want her in the future, she might not be able to live a normal life in the future and find another man!” Li Xiaohong saw that I had still not denied, so she simply followed up and pushed for victory with hot pursuit!
