My CEO Husband Has Some Issues Chapter 900: There's Also This Reason

Chapter 900: Chapter 900: There’s Also This Reason

Isn’t it quite unique?

Two cups make up a plete heart.

I really don’t know how Mr. Li agreed to indulge Miss Rong in using the same design.

If he knew that it wasn’t Rong Yan who chose this design, but rather the aesthetically picky Li Shengxiao of his own accord, I guess his jaw would drop.

But his offhand remark that ‘one could tell at a glance that these cups were meant for couples’ pleased the tall, dignified man. Li Shengxiao slightly lifted his chin, letting him walk out with the cup.

As Gu Ming left, Shengxiao moved his shoulders, took the document Gu Ming had brought from the table, and was about to open it when suddenly, his phone on the side rang.

Li Shengxiao paused, thinking it was Rong Yan calling. A spring-like pleasure showed between his brows as he reached for his phone.

When he saw the caller ID, the pleased expression slowly faded, but he still answered the call, “Hello.”

The person on the other end seemed to sigh in relief upon his answer, her voice tender as she said, “Shengxiao, you’re ing to your uncle’s celebration dinner tonight, right?”

Li Shengxiao twirled his fingers around the document, his expression indifferent, “I won’t make it tonight, I’ve still got work. I’ll send my assistant with a gift.”

“Can’t you push the work aside for a bit? Your uncle just came back from aiding in the war zone, narrowly escaping death.”

The urgency in her voice was clear, and sensing that she might have sounded too anxious, she softened her tone, “Shengxiao, I know you’ve had issues with your grandfather and haven’t been in touch with the family much these past years. But your uncle and I miss you a lot. He’s a bit of a blockhead, as you know, not good at expressing himself. Just last night, he asked me nonchalantly if you were ing today. It shows he really wants to see you. Please, e and see him for your aunt’s sake.”

Li Shengxiao’s frown deepened then relaxed. He stood up from his chair and went over to the floor-to-ceiling window, gazing out over the entire Capital City, lost in thought, his eyes half-closed, “I really don’t want to go tonight.”

The person on the other end of the phone called out sadly, “Shengxiao.”

Li Shengxiao’s relaxed brows furrowed again, and his lips formed a thin line, “I can make some time to e, but about the engagement matter…”

The person immediately responded, “This time, it’s just your uncle and I inviting you over, just a simple family meeting. We won’t meddle in your affairs. As for your grandfather…”

She said helplessly, “You know the kind of person your grandfather is, always acting promptly. Your uncle and I didn’t agree with his decision to have your mom remarry, but our opinions didn’t matter, he didn’t listen. Then that incident happened, and it’s been hard on your uncle and me. We haven’t been able to face your mom since.”

The former president of the Li Family, Lin Zhiya’s husband, suddenly died in a car accident, and Lin Zhiya returned to her parental home. With her family’s influence, she stabilized the then-chaotic situation. Over the next few years, busy with work, Lin Zhiya, heartbroken over her deceased husband and with Li Shengxiao to look after, had no thoughts of remarrying. However, there came a time when Sir Lin insisted on her meeting a suitor, which led to Lin Zhiya almost being assaulted by that man.
