Jun Li hummed and said, "Okay, I'll choose a private room, order some food, then go downstairs to find you, and wait for Miss Jiang."
After saying that, Jun Li hung up the phone.
Li Ke didn't realize that Jun Li wanted to meet her stepbrother.
After she ended the call with Jun Li, Chu Mu called her again and she answered.
"Mr. Chu, I'm right here in the rest area."
Li Ke stood up and looked around, looking for Chu Mu.
In fact, she didn't know Chu Mu, had seen him, and didn't know what he looked like.
But she stood up and Chu Mu saw her.
"I see you."
As Chu Mu said this, he hung up the phone and strode towards Li Ke.
Li Ke saw a tall, handsome man striding over, guessing that he was her stepbrother.
"Mr. Chu?"
She asked Chu Mu who came over with a smile.
Chu Mu stopped in front of her. He was very tall, about 1.9 meters tall, wearing a black suit. He had handsome features, but his expression was a bit cold and his eyes were sharp, making him look difficult to get along with.
When she looked at him, she had to raise her head. When he stood in front of her, she felt oppressed and felt very petite.
"Li Ke?"
"It's me."
Li Ke smiled and said, "Hello, Mr. Chu."
Chu Mu nodded and asked her: "Is it convenient? I'll treat you to dinner at the automatic restaurant on the first floor."
"Thank you, Mr. Chu. I made an appointment with someone to have dinner here. She will be arriving in a moment. It is not convenient for me to go to dinner with you."
Chu Mu said oh and did not force Li Ke to eat with him.
He looked Li Ke over and said in a low voice, "You look like you are doing well."
"It's been pretty good recently."
Chu Mu took out his mobile phone and said to Li Ke: "I need to take two photos of you and send them to my aunt to make her believe that you are doing well."
Li Ke allowed him to take two photos. After he finished taking the photos, she said, "Can you let me videotape my mother?"
In order not to disturb his mother's new life, Li Ke has long lost her mother's contact information.
Last time, her mother asked someone to send her 20,000 yuan, but she just asked someone to bring her a message and ask her to take good care of her siblings.
Don't go to her.
Li Ke knew that his mother was afraid that if she went there with her younger siblings, it would make it difficult for her to be a good person. After all, her mother had been married to her stepfather for nine years, and her two half-brothers and sisters were eight and six years old.
When the mother gave birth to a new child, she gave all her maternal love to her two half-siblings.
Li Ke actually doesn't hate his mother at all. This is not her fault. She also has her own difficulties and difficulties.
As long as her mother and siblings live well, and as long as her stepfather treats her mother well, she will feel relieved.
She is already twenty-six years old and has the ability to take good care of her own siblings, so her mother no longer needs to worry.
Chu Mu didn't speak, but he directly opened the video call with his stepmother. After his stepmother answered, he handed the phone to Li Ke and asked Li Ke to talk to his stepmother. He also walked away considerately so as not to disturb the mother and daughter.
Talk privately.
"mom."
Seeing that his mother in the video was not much different from ten years ago, Li Ke sadly called her "Mom".
Li Ke's biological mother is the current Mrs. Chu. When she heard Li Ke's voice, she couldn't help but blush and asked Li Ke: "Ake, are you okay? Mom just found out about the bankruptcy of the Li family.
I am very worried about you three siblings, and I also thought about taking you over, but..."
"My mother-in-law doesn't agree, so I can only ask someone to send you 20,000 yuan...Ake, please forgive mom, she is not sincere now, she has no job and no income, your stepfather gave her the pocket money
, Mom saved 20,000 yuan through frugality, and I gave it all to you."
Before Mrs. Chu's divorce, she returned to her family and gave birth to her second and third children. After that, she was busy taking care of her children and had no intention of returning to the workplace. Li Yongtai did not allow her to return to the company to manage things.
She was out of touch with society for several years. After her divorce, she remarried her current husband and soon became pregnant and gave birth to a child. She still did not go to work. Without work, she had no source of income.
Her current husband is very good to her, but her mother-in-law is still here. Her mother-in-law doesn't want her husband to spend too much money on her, because she is afraid that it will be the Tuchu family's money. She bought herself a house with the little property she got when she divorced Li Yongtai.
.
The remaining money has been spent long ago over the years. The pocket money given by her husband is actually quite a lot, but raising a child is also expensive, so Mrs. Chu can't save much money.
"Mom, I don't blame you."
Li Ke pretended to be happy and said, "Don't blame yourself. I know Mom has her own difficulties. I'm an adult and can take good care of my siblings. Mom doesn't have to worry. As long as Mom leads your life well, I'll be relieved."
In fact, she felt uncomfortable.
Strange, she doesn't blame her mother.
But her mother said not to look for her, which made Li Ke feel very uncomfortable.
Her parents divorced and got married. Her father had a stepmother, and it seemed that they were still in the same family. In fact, her three siblings had been separated by her stepmother a long time ago. With her father, they could not get the warmth of the family.
She also had to fight with her stepmother every day to protect her younger siblings.
Mom also has a new family, and they can't fit in with their stepfather's family.
The three siblings obviously have parents, but they are no different from orphans.
"How are your siblings?"
Mrs. Chu cried for a while in the video. After wiping away her tears, she asked about the situation of Li Yan and Li Ming.
"Very good, they are in school. Xiaoyan will take the college entrance examination next year. Her grades are very good. As long as she doesn't fail the college entrance examination, she will definitely be admitted to a good university."
"That's good, that's good."
Mrs. Chu was very pleased to hear that her second daughter had good grades.
"Your dad... owes so much debt, how is it?"
"I can make money to pay off my debts."
Li Ke spoke lightly and did not tell her mother that she and her sister were almost sold by their father to pay off their debts.
"He started the carton business again, but the business is not very good. No matter what, he is willing to work hard, which is better than just drinking at home."
Mrs. Chu said: "He deserves it, it's retribution! As long as you three siblings are not harmed, I can't wait to set off firecrackers to celebrate. Where is his so-called true love? Did you kick him?"
When her ex-husband ended up bankrupt, Mrs. Chu felt very happy and took pleasure in his misfortune.
And the mistress who destroyed her family and stole her husband.
"It doesn't implicate us now. That woman wants to divorce her, but she can't. My father refuses to divorce her. She also has a share in the debt. Even if the debt is not paid off, my father will not divorce her."
"She now works in a nightclub to make money to pay off debts. She can only keep five hundred yuan of her monthly income for living expenses. The rest is directly paid into the creditor's account."
After hearing that the mistress was living such a miserable life, Mrs. Chu kept saying on the phone: "You deserve it, retribution, retribution!"
