My outside expression is different from my inner expression

Chapter 108.1

Editor: Jodi

Knowing that the Li Group’s ‘Sky Juvenile’ game launch event press conference was on the same day and at almost the same time as their holographic game, Lu Jizhen and Liu Jingyuan were immediately stunned.

They didn’t dare underestimate Li Qingzhou at all now.

Especially since after Li Qingzhou and Liu Bohuai got together, the attitudes of the Liu family and the Xia family also surprised and angered the two of them.

The Liu family naturally referred to Xia Qingwan.

Liu Jingyuan had sent the news of them being together along with pictures as evidence to his mother who was recuperating abroad—his words sincere, completely showing the appearance of an older brother concerned for his younger brother.

But whose younger brother didn’t appreciate it, still doing as he pleased, being with another man.

So, he hoped that Xia Qingwan would stand up and oppose, in order to correct Liu Bohuai’s ‘mistake’.

However what he didn’t expect, was that Xia Qingwan didn’t reply to his message, let alone take any action.

At first, Liu Jingyuan thought the message hadn’t reached Xia Qingwan’s hands, that it had been secretly intercepted by Liu Bohuai.

So afterwards, he simply called to explain.

However Xia Qingwan only sighed helplessly over the phone and said, “I’ve known about this for a long time. Bohuai told me when he came to see me during the New Year.”

“There’s nothing wrong with him falling in love with another man, so I agreed to it.”

“Jingyuan, as long as your little brother is happy, then there’s no need to worry about anything else.”

And as he was on the other end of the phone, Liu Jingyuan didn’t even try to conceal his expression.

He wanted to ask Xia Qingwan why she agreed?!

Why didn’t she mind at all?! Would she just continue favoring her younger son like this?!

Liu Jingyuan had always been harboring resentment.

Because compared to him, it was obvious that Liu Bohuai received more!

However he could only endure it on the surface, his tone unchanged as he said, “Okay, I understand. Then Mom, if there’s nothing else…”

However right at this moment, Xia Qingwan told him, “Jingyuan, I’ll be returning to the country sometime soon.”

“When the time comes, come pick me up and let’s go back to the old mansion together, I have something to say.”

Liu Jingyuan was puzzled by this, his brows furrowing, “What’s the matter?”

However Xia Qingwan only said they would talk about it when she returned to the country.

Liu Jingyuan agreed and right after he hung up Liu Jizhen asked him, “What does Mom want to talk about?”

“Who knows?”

Liu Jizhen’s expression wasn’t good, “Mom doesn’t object and even the Xia family doesn’t object. So Liu Bohuai being with another man has just been accepted like this?!”

Ridiculous.

They had previously gone to the Xia family to ask about this.

Only to find out that the Xia family had no objections to Liu Bohuai and Li Qingzhou’s matter. In the end, Liu Jizhen couldn’t say much more, and so sat for a while before leaving with Liu Jingyuan, a stiff expression on her face.

They could hardly make a fuss about this matter, because even if they leaked it to the media, it would only create hype.

And as it was during the game promotion period, if the attention of netizens were drawn to Li Qingzhou’s side, it wouldn’t be conducive to the release of the Lu Group’s holographic game.

But now, with the Li Group’s game and the World Skill Game Company’s press conference happening on the same day, Liu Jizhen had to be more vigilant.

However what could they do?

The date of the conference had already been announced and couldn’t be changed. It was just like an arrow on a bowstring that had to be released.

There was still more than a week until the game launch event press conference, so Liu Jizhen and Liu Jingyuan continued to still pay attention to the Li Group’s situation.

However the Li Group still remained silent–

Despite the various comments and speculations online about the conference being held on the same day.

During this period, something happened in Yanjing.

And that was that the Yu family’s company filed for bankruptcy, Yu Xudong was arrested, and Pei Jing divorced Yu Xudong.

Because Yu Xudong was suspected of fleeing with the money, leaving all the debts to his wife, Pei Jing.

Pei Jing had been completely unaware before this, kept in the dark by the Yu family.

And this ‘Yu family’, included her son, Yu Kun.

It wasn’t until Liu Bohuai made a move and Yu Xudong and the others were arrested at the airport that Pei Jing learned the whole story.

—The name of the debtor had even become her.

Pei Jing could care less about the way Mother Yu treated her, but she cared about Yu Xudong and her son Yu Kun.

So when she learned the truth, she almost fell apart.

The blow of her husband and son abandoning her was too much for Pei Jing to bear, causing her to faint immediately, and when she woke up in the hospital, she even planned to commit suicide.

Later, Liu Xiahui went to the hospital and, it wasn’t known what he said that Pei Jing requested a divorce from Yu Xudong.

Yu Kun was already an adult, so she naturally no longer had to bear the responsibilities of being a mother.

Besides, this son of hers might prefer to ‘follow’ his father rather than his mother.

Pei Jing left decisively, disappearing without a trace, while Yu Xudong had to face the consequences of fleeing with embezzled money.

And with nowhere to go after following Mother Yu, Yu Kun went to stay in a hotel temporarily with the secret assistance of Liu Yunfei…

Which happened to be discovered by Li Qingzhou who just happened to pass by a dessert shop.

Then, he took some pictures secretly, just in case.

This young lady from the Liu family was the number one enemy of the female protagonist Xu Mengning in the plot of the original novel.

Not only did she trip the female protagonist up often, she was also always at the ready to stab Liu Xiahui in the back. She was much more cunning and scheming than her big brother.

So now, even though the plot had deviated, he still needed to pay attention to this.

Li Qingzhou rubbed his chin: I’ll pay attention to Liu Jingyuan’s family, so that my Ah Huai won’t be bothered.

Heh, I’m really awesome.
