Quick Transmigration: Leisure

Chapter 425 Heartless in a CEO Novel (5)

evening,

As the evening glow faded, the bedroom door was pushed open.

Yu Li prepared dinner for Niannian on his own initiative, and he and Youmi planned to eat out.

"Have a snack first. The sweet soup in the stew pot tastes just right. The buns will lose their texture if they're heated for too long, so I'll take care of that. Also, I'm afraid you'll get so full that you'll want to fall asleep." Yu Li kept her hands and mouth busy.

Xia Youmi took it while combing her hair.

When Yu Ligao is full of energy and you need to relax, the other person's thoughtfulness is the best quality.

These habits,

He was raised by four women from two families. He neither underestimates his own gentleness nor displays an overly indifferent strength when receiving care. The other men from both families both love and hate him. They worry that Yu Li is not up to par, but they are also proud of his sound mentality and the gentlemanly demeanor ingrained in his bones.

Gradually, this, in turn, influenced the two fathers.

The gentle man becomes more resolute and gentle, the strong man gradually softens, and he rediscovers a way to get along with his wife and daughter.

In the early stages of forming a small family, she felt comfortable handing over her daughter because the man, who was supposed to cause problems, was good enough.

In the eyes of Xia's parents, their daughter had ideas from a young age, was gentle, and had a strong sense of empathy.

Her studies, career, and life are not a concern for her family. If she didn't have a boyfriend, they might be able to let her live a carefree life. However, once she has a steady partner, they worry about her being hurt.

If Yu Li hadn't passed years of scrutiny and been willing to be raised for life, Xia's parents wouldn't have easily married off their daughter.

What's even more valuable is the care and concern shown by both sets of parents, which was subtle and directed inward, never putting pressure on them.

Any troubles or problems are resolved behind closed doors. Over the years, the only public disagreement has been about Yu Li not getting the college application she wanted. This was something Xia's parents came up with out of empathy; Yu's family didn't blame anyone.

Therefore, it's clear that there really isn't any trouble.

Children who grow up in such a simple environment are suddenly filled with memories and recall a complicated past.

She used to be able to handle things with ease, but in Xia Youmi's eyes now, she's like a tangled ball of yarn—troublesome, resistant, wanting to escape, wanting to rely on others, but her sense of responsibility won't allow it.

in this way,

The most direct way is to keep your eyes fixed on one person and use this method to offset the impact of grief.

Until self-control returns.

......

After dinner, the two strolled hand in hand along the lake. Although the lake in the community was man-made, its water source was the famous Zhongbei River.

In recent years, thanks to the development of the company, Yushi has gradually become less of a niche market in the country.

As the economy develops, culture, entertainment, and tourism follow suit. Many people then realize how livable Yu City is, and that the Zhongbei River, a key feature of the city, has received comprehensive and long-term development.

In addition to arranging greenways, restaurants and parks in suitable locations.

They also discovered many natural angles suitable for taking photos, using the scenery as a backdrop, and uploaded various fresh and elegant beautiful photos online, attracting many locals and tourists to come and take photos.

In particular, the recent "century sunset" has become incredibly popular.

This has led many people to spontaneously gather along the banks of the Zhongbei River in the evening to wait for photos. Local university students have even started a proxy photography service, bringing the IDs of netizens from all over the country into the scene to join in the fun and take virtual photos.

Xia Youmi originally planned to go shopping with Yu Li, but seeing the crowds, she could only wander around the neighborhood.

Fortunately, the community's designers had the foresight to include elevated platforms within the complex, offering exclusive views that are virtually indistinguishable from the outside scenery. Outsiders are not permitted access, and there are three such locations within the community.

Therefore, there weren't many people at each location.

More people gather in outdoor fitness areas, where children gather and there are near-professional-level facilities for basketball, table tennis, badminton, volleyball, and other sports, making it suitable for socializing and people who love excitement.

Xia Youmi and Yu Li were in the least crowded area, which was also not the most popular spot.

Walking up the steps and looking towards the Zhongbei River, you can see the exit of the crowd and half of the river view.

"Youmi, I'll go exchange some things first." When they had finished shopping, Yu Li left Xia Youmi on the bench, made sure she had water, a phone, and money, and then checked that the nearby surveillance cameras were working properly.

She took the family planning card given to her by her aunt and went to a store not far away.

Although the journey wasn't far, it wasn't convenient to drive there, so Yu Li didn't want Xia Youmi to come along.

Coincidentally, Youmi has always enjoyed sitting still and savoring that comfort, which puts both of them at ease.

"Go ahead! Be careful on the road!" Xia Youmi thought for a moment and then added, "Don't rush. I'm afraid some passing cars might not be paying attention and try to extort you. I don't want to go through the trouble of finding another boyfriend."

"Ha! Okay, you better watch out so you don't get kidnapped." Yu Li brought her face close, "I don't want to find another girlfriend!"

"Bah-"

"Let's go!"

Xia Youmi watched him walk away until he was out of sight, then turned her gaze to the direction of Zhongbei River and stared blankly.

"Bang!! Crack—" It was the sound of a heavy object falling to the ground.

Xia Youmi has excellent hearing; even without consciously paying attention, various sounds from the outside world still find their way to her. She glances at the cars and bicycles—none of which seem to concern Yu Li—and silently moves her head upwards.

Besides the natural river views, the lights on both banks at night are also a sight to behold.

It is said to be designed by a certain designer, and it is neither light-polluting nor tacky, achieving both promotional effect and artistic merit.

That's great... but is this little car accident never going to end?

It seems they've opted for a private settlement, but more and more relatives and friends from both sides are getting involved.

until,

A woman came into view; she had a capable demeanor and a serious expression.

It was an acquaintance—Supervisor Kim Soon-mi.

Xia Youmi works at Shenta Group, where the other party is responsible for supervising interns. There are usually hierarchical communication tasks, and the positions are flexible, with varying levels of status. These past few days, she seems easy to talk to, but her eyes are full of arrogance.

Now, however, his appearance was a mixture of refinement and dishevelment, clearly indicating he had rushed to the rescue. Only when something work-related came Xia Youmi a closer look did she realize that the supervisor had come to handle a car accident dispute for the driver.

The driver, dressed in a black suit, looked tall, imposing, and not someone to be trifled with. Seemingly impatient, he turned his back to the center. Xia Youmi couldn't see his face clearly; there was another person inside the car who hadn't gotten out.

The person who was hit appeared to be a female college student. She was initially telling the driver not to leave, but when Manager Kim arrived, she began to describe the whole incident to him again.

That's how Xia Youmi was able to get a general idea of ​​what was going on.

The car accident was probably the fault of both of them; they both neglected the road conditions.

They were both looking at opposite angles, causing a collision at the intersection.

In addition, the large number of people on Saturday, with people constantly passing by, forced them to move to a quieter location to discuss compensation matters, which was closer to the residential area.

It was right in front of Xia Youmi.

The young female college student burst into tears, seemingly finding the compensation unreasonable.

But the car driver or owner was clearly in a hurry and impatient. He offered to pay for the bicycle, the broken camera, and medical expenses, but refused to compensate her for her work.

"Manager Jin, explain to her!" the driver in black said coldly.

"Yes!"

"Ms. Qiu, our boss can agree to your material compensation, but accompanying you to take another photo is not an option, I'm sorry!"

"Is money all I want? Money can't buy the sunset I photographed today!" The girl's voice rose. "Can you compensate me for a sunset as beautiful as today's? Can you? You think you're so great just because you have money! Waaah!"

Manager Kim was momentarily stunned, but quickly regained her professional composure and began to talk about the law.

The girl clearly wasn't listening.

She seemed to be in deep trouble and was gripped by anxiety, a situation that the law could not explain.

She probably knew her demands wouldn't be met, but she used the opportunity to vent, so it's hard to say whether it was good or bad.

"Qiuqiu! What's wrong?!"

Finally, a companion riding an electric scooter appeared on the girl's side. Upon seeing the accident, he immediately went over to check on the injuries.

"It's nothing, just a minor scratch, but the camera is broken, and of all things, the card was run over," a girl named Qiuqiu cried.

"you!"

Just as his companion was about to angrily accuse him, he was interrupted by a stern voice.

"Enough! Just tell Manager Jin what you need. I don't have time for that!" With that, the driver in black got into the car, intending to drive away immediately. The back window rolled down, revealing the cold face of a middle-aged man.

His gaze met Xia Youmi not far away, then looked away.

Behind them, Yu Li's footsteps could be heard. Before she could speak, an embrace enveloped her.

Xia Youmi turned around and hugged him back, burying her face in his chest.

inside the car,

"Mr. Mu, what is that?"

"I don't know him yet."
