My Wife is a Beautiful CEO

It was approximately midnight in Beijing. The lights in the Li residence were dim and barely covered a tiny space where three silhouettes encircled the study.

On the desk were tiny cups of freshly brewed white tea. The fragrant aroma engulfed the air around it radiating a sense of calmness and tranquility.

Li Moshen sat silently on his desk seat. In one hand was a copy of the paper, and the other was his personalized clay cup, which he took intermittent sips from.

On a separate end of the desk was Li Yunpeng, who was constantly staring across at his son Li Dun, visibly anxious with a tinge of blame towards him.

Li Dun acted all innocent as he sat with his leg crossed, presumably faking a nap with his eyes shut.

Li Yunpeng eventually broke the silence as he said to his son, “Are you serious about this girl from the Tangs?”

Li Dun right then opened his eyes and gave a strong nod. “I recall telling the both of you, and I am pretty sure you heard it loud and clear.”

“You…” Li Yunpeng was perplexed as he shook his head. “Son, I hand picked so many better girls for you but not once did you bat an eye. Now you just had to fall for this Tang Xin girl. Need I remind you she is not as simple as she plays herself out to be?”

Li Dun shrugged. “All I know is that a girl that couldnt care less about me when we first met, even to the extent of despising me, must not be ordinary. I could easily have guessed that shes hiding something that she wouldnt want the world to see.”

“Then why would you still go after her?” Li Yunpeng frowned.

“Because I have feelings. Like any normal human, I will chase those feelings,” Li Dun replied with a bright smile.

“Is this a joke to you?!” Li Yunpeng raised his voice.

“Alright, alright…” Li Moshen, slightly agitated, decided to finally put down his newspaper and intervene. “Can the two of you just let me enjoy silence for a minute? Whats the point of this conversation, yelling and all.”
