After finishing my project, I only paid for my part, turned off my phone, and went out shopping with Shen Qingqing.
By the time I turned on my phone, it was already seven in the evening.
When I opened my phone, it was full of missed calls from Li Zikai, my mother-in-law, and Lin Sisi.
I didn't care and went straight into the house with my keys.
"Yang Shiqi, how could you leave my mom and sister at the beauty salon like that! You didn't even pay!" As soon as I walked in, Li Zikai angrily threw the cup in his hand to the floor.
I looked at my mother-in-law standing to the side, her eyes wide with anger, slamming the bowls and chopsticks on the table.
It seemed like the huge spending in the afternoon made her feel heartache.
I nonchalantly explained, "Something came up at my company, I had to rush back for a meeting, and the meeting required turning off the phone. I saw that mom and sister were still doing their treatments, so I didn't disturb them!
"What's the matter? How much did they spend, it shouldn't be that much, right?"
The store manager had already sent me a message saying these two greedy people spent fifty to sixty thousand in the store, and eventually, Li Zikai had to pay the bill.
Li Zikai paused for a moment and said, "Not much..."
I sneered in my heart, fifty to sixty thousand isn't much? Li Zikai knew his lover and mother intended to fleece me, and he was too ashamed to admit it.
"Why are you standing there questioning me, don't you know to help out at home?" My mother-in-law's face was dark with anger.
She only took three bowls, sat down, served Li Zikai a bowl of soup, and then served herself a bowl of rice, saying coldly to me, "If you want to eat, get your own bowl. Our Li family doesn't believe in men serving women."
Seeing us about to argue again, Li Zikai quickly tried to mediate, "What are you doing! Just eat peacefully!"
I deliberately asked, "You seem very happy today, what's going on?"
Li Zikai said seriously, "Let me tell you, you had that mole removed in the morning, and in the afternoon, the company announced I was not only not fired but also got a raise!"
Everything was under my control.
Hearing that her son's career was advancing, Li Zikai's mother threw her bowl aside, "Really? Your company said they would give you a raise?"
Lin Sisi quickly fished out a chicken leg from the pot, "Oh my, Zikai, you're amazing!"
I pretended to be pleasantly surprised as well, "Oh my, honey, you're so awesome!"
The three women's flattery made Li Zikai feel like he was in a honey pot, but a shred of clarity reminded him to please me, "Isn't it all thanks to my dear wife willing to make sacrifices, even getting a mole removed!"
"What does it have to do with her!" My mother-in-law picked the chicken leg from my bowl and put it back in Li Zikai's bowl, "It's because of your good luck. If you hadn't been held back before, you might have already become a senior executive!
"I think Sisi brings good fortune, look at how your luck turned around as soon as she came."
Just as she finished speaking, I felt Li Zikai's leg move, kicking his mom.
Realizing she misspoke, my mother-in-law quickly shut her mouth.
Lin Sisi laughed and tried to smooth things over, "It's because I bring good luck to the household! But it's also thanks to Zikai and Shiqi's efforts!"
Li Zikai smiled and comforted his mom, "Mom, Shiqi also contributed! If she hadn't been willing to remove the mole, how could I have succeeded so quickly?"
Then he changed his tone, "But that's all superficial, the main thing is our boss thinks I'm capable!"
"Yes, yes, I always knew my son is amazing!"
Looking at Li Zikai's smug face, I found it laughable.
A mole can make him a senior executive, if it were that easy, wouldn't there be business tycoons everywhere?
Keep laughing, let's see how long you can keep it up!
Falling from a great height is the most painful!
