Li Yu sighed when he heard Old Madam Li’s words.
He said, “Mom, you’re jumping to conclusions. Ling’er didn’t approach me; I was the one who did. Moreover, she told me her current priority is her studies and career. She doesn’t want to date me yet.”
When Old Madam Li heard this, she immediately said anxiously, “What? Isn’t she just fooling around with you? How old are you, and how old is she? Can you afford to wait?”
He frowned and replied, “What fooling around? I’ve always been the one pestering her. Moreover, I’m only in my 20s, but you make it sound like I’m already very old.”
“Alright,” Old Madam Li said helplessly. “Even if you’re being persistent, I’m still anxious. Jiang Ling’er is even younger than Li Yan, isn’t she?”
“That’s right; she’s nineteen this year.” Li Yu nodded.
“You know that, but you’re still so calm?” Old Madam Li said in agitation.
He seriously replied, “What else can we do? The law wouldn’t allow us to register for marriage now!”
Old Madam Li was speechless.
Forget it, she was tired. She should just leave it at that!
“Mom, does Dad know you’re home?” Li Yu asked.
She shook her head, “No, he doesn’t. I didn’t tell him anything. If your father knew, I wouldn’t have returned.”
“Then when will you tell him?” he asked.
“What do you mean?” she was a little upset. “What, you don’t want me staying here?”
Li Yu replied, “I just meant that I’m also very busy, so I don’t have much time to accompany you.”
Old Madam Li snorted and asked, “CEO Li, are you certainly that busy?”
“If I don’t work hard now, won’t marriage be even more far away?” he said seriously.
She was stunned; he wasn’t wrong.
She said, “Then you should work hard. I’ve seen Jiang Ling’er before; she’s indeed very beautiful. A beautiful woman will never lack men.”
“So, you agree to us?” Li Yu asked with a smile.
“I never said I didn’t,” Old Madam Li said lightly. “I just wanted you to think things through. If you find out she has someone else in her heart in the future, don’t be sad.”
Li Yu’s face darkened.
She continued, “I’ll accompany you tomorrow to see her.”
Li Yu was speechless.
Seeing his silence, she was a little upset.
Old Madam Li said, “What? You don’t want me to go?”
“Alright,” he immediately replied.
He felt bitter in his heart. The main thing was, how would Jiang Ling’er address his mother once they met? Would it be Auntie, or Grandma?

The next morning.
Old Madam Li and Li Yu went to the Jiang family’s residence together.
Old Master Jiang wasn’t surprised to see Li Yu’s car.
However, he was very surprised to see Old Madam Li come together with Li Yu.
Old Master Jiang asked immediately, “Sister-in-law, when did you return?”
“I just got back yesterday, Old Jiang. We haven’t seen each other for many years,” replied Old Madam Li with a smile.
“Yeah,” he said. “It should be about seven years. Come, let’s go inside and have a chat.”
The two of them, who hadn’t seen each other for a long time, walked into the house together.
As soon as he entered the house, Old Master Jiang immediately asked someone to make tea and called Jiang Ling’er out who was eating.
“Ling’er, this is Grandma Li,” he introduced. “Quick, greet her.”
Jiang Ling’er was very confused as she ate. Who was this Grandma Li?
When she went to the living room, she saw an old lady who was about the same age as her grandfather chatting with Old Master Jiang. On the other hand, Li Yu was sitting quietly beside them.
This confused her even more.
“Ling’er, don’t you recognize Grandma?” Old Madam Li asked. “I haven’t seen you for many years, yet you’ve already grown up. The last time I saw you, you were only 12. After such a long time, you probably forgot me, right?”
At this moment, Li Yu’s expression was very ugly. Jiang Ling’er calling his mother “Grandma” wasn’t right!
On the other hand, Jiang Ling’er was also a little embarrassed. Even if she knew this Old Madam Li, it’d be her original body who knew her!
Looking at this fashionable, elegant, and very kind old woman, although she didn’t remember anything from her original memories, she still tried her best to remember.
“I’m sorry, Grandma Li. I really can’t remember,” she apologized after a moment.
Old Madam Li was very satisfied with Jiang Ling’er’s words. Back then, she didn’t seem to know someone had been watching over her.
“It’s alright,” said Old Madam Li with a smile.
After saying that, she looked at Jiang Ling’er carefully. The more she looked, the more she liked her. She also sighed in her heart; Li Yu had such good taste. However, Li Yan didn’t have such good luck..
