Chapter 1182: Chapter 1182: Going to Country S tomorrow!

Old Master Li instructed the old butler to see the two of them off.

The vast reception room was left with only the servant and Li Qiyun.

Li Qiyun walked over at the right moment, respectfully calling out, “Grandfather.”

“Hmm.” Old Master Li poured a cup of tea and placed it in front of her, “Sit.”

Li Qiyun obediently sat on the sofa, waiting for his words.

Old Master Li wasn’t in a hurry. He leisurely picked up the teacup, took a sip of Bigelow Chun, and then casually started, “I heard from your father that you’ve been going on blind dates recently. Have you met him yet?”

Li Qiyun was already prepared and nodded, “I’ve met him.”

“What do you think?” His sharp eyes fell on her face, as if trying to see through her.

Li Qiyun quietly clenched the hand resting under her body, maintaining her composure, “He’s alright. I just had one meal with him, so I don’t know him very well yet. I’ve already scheduled a meeting with him tomorrow to go horseback riding together for further contact.”

Old Master Li gave her a deep look, withdrawing his penetrating gaze, “Since you think he’s alright, then keep observing. If there’s no issue, consider marriage.”

Marriage…

Li Qiyun subconsciously pressed her lips together, hoarsely agreeing, “Okay.”

Right at this moment, the old butler returned.

First, he greeted Li Qiyun, “Hello, young lady.”

Then he quickly walked over to Old Master Li, leaned in, and whispered, “Old Master Jue, the young master has returned.”

Old Master Li subconsciously frowned, glanced at Li Qiyun across from him, gave a nod to signify he understood, then stood up and said to Li Qiyun, “I’m tired, you should head back for today. We can talk about anything tomorrow.”

“I don’t have anything urgent, I just wanted to give Grandfather the financial reports from the companies under my name and discuss a subsidiary’s restructuring plan. Since Grandfather is not feeling well, you should rest for now. I’ll come back tomorrow.”

“Leave the reports here and see me tomorrow.”

“Okay.”

Li Qiyun placed the financial reports she brought on the table and got up to leave.

Unexpectedly, Li Beijue was faster than anyone else. She had just reached the doorway and bumped into the man who was striding back in.

Although they hadn’t seen each other for just a month, Li Qiyun felt an inexplicable sense of unfamiliarity towards the man approaching. She bit her lower lip, intending to say hello.

But Li Beijue acted as if he didn’t see her, brushed past her in the blink of an eye…

Li Qiyun felt a gust of wind by her side, and in an instant, he was gone. She raised her half-finished gesture of greeting, clenched it into a fist mid-air, discreetly lowered it, bit her lower lip, forcing herself not to turn back, pretending she hadn’t wanted to greet him, and walked away…

This scene fell right into Old Master Li’s eyes, and he wearily rubbed the bridge of his nose, closing his eyes.

The old butler, being the only one besides Old Master Li and Li Nantian who knew about Li Qiyun’s lineage, naturally understood why Old Master Li had been troubled recently. He silently sighed over the ill-fated relationship and stood by with a neutral posture.

Fortunately, it was only the young lady who had thoughts about this; the young master didn’t share the same sentiments.

Otherwise, Old Master Jue would truly have a headache.

That’s why Old Master Jue protected Miss Chi and drove away Her Highness Scarlett—having the young lady as a comparison factor must have been a part of it.

After all, the young master being with Miss Chi is better than being with the young lady.
