Chapter 1225: Chapter 1225: Thanks for the Invite—At Changlin, Just Finished Eating Cake
After saying that, Rui Changhuai was moved by his own words.
The people in the company mustn’t know how many calamities he fends off for them at Zhao Dingli’s place every day!
He’s truly the savior of everyone in the company!
He’s just too good-hearted; otherwise, he wouldn’t have to shield them from all this.
At this time, Zhao Dingli pointed to a comment: "Reply to this."
Rui Changhuai: "..."
"If I replied directly, it wouldn’t have the desired effect," Zhao Dingli said, "You should reply as a Changlin employee, just say it’s me who paid out of pocket to treat everyone."
"Okay." Rui Changhuai agreed with a difficult expression, "So please forward that Weibo post to me, I’ll look for the comment."
Zhao Dingli swiftly sent the Weibo post to Rui Changhuai.
Rui Changhuai searched through the comments and finally found it, quickly replying: "Thanks for the invite, I’m currently at Changlin, just finished eating cake. Indeed, it’s our president who paid out of his own pocket to buy and give these cakes to each department, just to share his marital bliss with us."
Rui Changhuai finished writing but did not immediately send it, instead showing it to Zhao Dingli first.
"President, what do you think of this?" Rui Changhuai asked, "Is this response okay?"
Zhao Dingli looked at it and nodded: "It’s fine, send it."
Only then did Rui Changhuai click send.
Netizens don’t just believe anything.
They even clicked on Rui Changhuai’s avatar and went to his Weibo homepage to confirm.
Seeing that his authentication reads as Changlin Company’s President Assistant.
"Wow! It’s actually true!"
"And he’s someone close to Uncle Zhao!"
Rui Changhuai: "..."
Did this netizen learn language from a P.E. teacher?
Can they not speak properly!
Why say he’s someone close to Zhao Dingli?
The person close to Zhao Dingli is Li Xiaoyun, okay!
"To be the assistant to Uncle Zhao, that’s really close!"
"I suspect it’s Uncle Zhao who asked him to reply!"
Rui Changhuai thought, brother, you’ve found the truth!
"With the rhythm and traits of these old bachelors from the Eight Great Families getting unattached, Uncle Zhao can indeed pull this off."
Zhao Dingli: "..."
Rui Changhuai quickly said: "President, this is just a netizen guessing, it’s not my fault!"
At this point, Zhao Dingli saw another netizen’s comment: "However, the joy of Uncle Zhao’s marriage is indeed obvious, we felt it."
Zhao Dingli finally saw a satisfactory comment and decided not to use others to reply, but to take action himself, directly replying: "If you can speak well, say more."
The netizen was truly surprised that Zhao Dingli replied to her.
"Ahhhh! I got noticed! Uncle Zhao replied to me!"
"Today’s Uncle Zhao is officially on Weibo."
Rui Changhuai: "..."
Zhao Dingli finally decided to put away his phone to work, but his work efficiency was unprecedentedly low.
He practically waited until the end of the workday.
Five minutes before the end of the workday, Zhao Dingli couldn’t wait anymore, grabbed his keys and left.
Despite leaving only five minutes early, he surprisingly avoided the peak off work time.
He smoothly reached the company downstairs of Li Xiaoyun in ten minutes, parked the car by the roadside.
Li Xiaoyun was conversely busy with work all afternoon, efficiency was particularly high.
Because she took the morning off.
The morning’s work piled up to the afternoon.
This made her unable to savor any newlywed joy or nervousness, spending the entire afternoon buried in work.
If it wasn’t for the phone ringing with a WeChat notification sound, she wouldn’t have known it’s time to get off work.
Glancing at WeChat, it was a message from Zhao Dingli saying he was already waiting downstairs.
Today was the appointment to go to the old house to have dinner with the elders.
Li Xiaoyun couldn’t be late.
She had a bit of unfinished business left, so Li Xiaoyun could only pack up intending to take it home to continue.
Li Xiaoyun dashed outside.
Zhao Dingli got off the car to steady her: "No rush."
"I took a leave in the morning, so piled up a lot of work, I totally forgot it was off work." Li Xiaoyun explained.
Zhao Dingli opened the car door for her, letting her get inside.
As he got in, fastened the seatbelt, he asked her: "Did you finish everything?"
"Still have a little left, planning to finish it at home tonight," Li Xiaoyun said.
Zhao Dingli nodded, without saying anything.
They went to the old house together.
Zhao Gushen and Ye Fei took the little one and went too.
Zhao Guoxian’s family was also there.
Yet Zhao Guqing’s family was still absent.
Because the old lady didn’t notify them in the first place.
The old lady secretly told Zhao Guoxian to call Zhao Dinglian and his wife.
The old lady didn’t ask if Zhao Dinglian and his wife were available.
Regardless, the two must be free.
Zhao Dinghuan and Chi Jingsi also attended.
After all, today Li Xiaoyun formally became a part of the Zhao Family, she should meet the Zhao Family members.
As for Zhao Guqing’s family, with their cold attitude and unable to say nice words, inviting them would rather spoil the atmosphere.
After discussing with the old man, the old lady simply informed Li Xiaoyun that knowing these three people was enough.
Li Xiaoyun had also learned from Ye Fei earlier about Zhao Guqing’s family situation.
So, upon hearing Zhao Dingli saying the old lady didn’t invite them, Li Xiaoyun was quite relieved.
"I’m really lucky, Ye Fei had to face them," Li Xiaoyun said.
"It was exactly during the New Year, couldn’t help it," Zhao Dingli chuckled, "We usually don’t call them for other matters, trying to avoid meeting them. But during the New Year, you can’t really avoid it. Even if the elders don’t wish to meet them, they must come to pay New Year’s greetings, and they can’t be stopped."
"You can’t avoid them this year during the New Year either, you’ll still have to meet them," Zhao Dingli said.
"It’s okay, anyway, I have Ye Fei to accompany me," Li Xiaoyun said.
"You’re much better than Ye Fei. Zhao Guqing’s family is focusing on their position in the family home, naturally treating Gu Shen and Ye Fei as eyesores. But I pose no threat to them, although I’ll eventually share some of Zhao Family’s power and wealth, they might want to contend with me in the future. But that’s in the future, at least for now, they don’t have time for me. Their main focus remains on Gu Shen’s side."
Li Xiaoyun breathed a sigh of relief: "Poor Ye Fei."
"Not really, they’re not easy to deal with," Zhao Dingli said, "Ye Fei isn’t a pushover either."
"Hey! Don’t talk about my girlfriend like that." Li Xiaoyun immediately went to slap Zhao Dingli’s arm.
"I was praising her," Zhao Dingli quickly said, "Only then can she and Gu Shen mutually support each other. If she were weak and incompetent, our family wouldn’t really approve."
"Don’t think Zhao Family is indifferent, casually liking anyone, regardless of their nature," Zhao Dingli said.
"The elders indeed care less about family background, but they value the person’s character," Zhao Dingli smiled and said.
