Chapter 1098: Father-son bureau

PS: For book friends 20180227150449846, add more, the name is too long to only hit here.
"Charlie, how about dinner?"
"It's delicious. Is this chicken breast?"
"Yes, marinated in a special sauce, an exclusive recipe."
The atmosphere at the dining table was not bad, but the person who was supposed to mediate the atmosphere changed from Mary to Li Zitao.
He was nothing. Natasha and Mia were a little embarrassed. Everyone could see it, but no one pointed it out, and everyone pretended not to know.
Regarding Riley's family problems, Li Zitao and Mary chose not to ask, they just came to have a common meal.
But I still know a lot in the conversation. Natasha is a well-known tailor, and Miya is her assistant. They run a tailor shop together. Because of their good craftsmanship, their income is also very objective.
This can be seen from the fact that they live in the Upper West Side. Even if the house was left by Riley's father, the consumption here is not something ordinary people can handle.
And Mary was looking at the room and the layout inside, and her ears were listening to what Natasha and Mia said... a deeper meaning.
Just as they always mention dead husbands, it seems to Mary that they repeatedly emphasize lies or seek sympathy.
Because if this is true, Riley's father really passed away, they do not need to keep stressing.
The living room is full of stuff, the dining table is just enough for 6 people, and several cheap oil paintings hang on the wall, with the theme of flowers. Porcelain bottles are placed on the small round table in the corner. It seems that their lives are not boring, at least very warm.
In addition, with the size of the living room and kitchen, and the number of doors in the hallway, Mary knew that this was a two-room apartment of about 1200 square feet.
Because she had been to the same apartment, but not in this building, it was those apartments bought by Li Zitao for rental investment.
Yes, Mary is very dissatisfied with this. Aiden is their eldest son. In the future, if he wants to inherit the huge Li empire, his wife must be able to help him. Regardless of how he looks, Riley will not be the candidate.
At the end of the dinner, Natasha was tidying up the dishes, Mia was with them, and Aiden and Riley were sitting on the sofa whispering and laughing.
"Look at them, how happy they are," Miya said, looking at the children with relief.
"Actually, it's not too early. I think we should go." Mary took her handbag and looked at her husband.
"Yes, we should leave." Of course Li Zitao chose to cooperate.
After leaving the Lily's house, there was only silence between them, and Aiden didn't say displeasure until he got on the bus; "Mom, can't you be more friendly?"
"What?" Mary looked at him incredulously.
"You behaved indifferently, just politely answered questions from beginning to end, with choice..."
"What should I do? Say hello to them and kiss the back of the hand?"
"I……"
"Aiden." Li Zitao's face sank. "It is forbidden to talk to your mother like this, never allowed..."
"Why?" Aiden could see his mother's dissatisfaction, which was what made him angry, why she always intervened in her feelings.
This was the case before, and it is still the same. Although it was not true before, could she not support herself once?
He is still young and has a long time to think about the future and choose the way he wants to go, and now it is like everything has been set.
It was like a luxurious avenue covered with flowers and beautiful scenery, and behind the flower baskets were hidden iron bars welded to death, and all he could do was go down this road.
"Because she is your mother, my wife, the most important part of this family, without her there would be nothing, no home, no apartment, no car, credit card... the most important thing is without you, understand?"
The conversation broke up, and the car drove straight into the large elevator. Before the elevator was completely stable, Aiden snatched out the door.
"This is his attitude towards his mother." Mary tonight was particularly angry, and since she was an adult, she knew what kind of person she wanted to be and what kind of life she had, and she had never been so crazy.
She can always control her emotions, keep herself in good condition, and present the best to everyone, but now she is very emotional.
Perhaps, having a second child is not a good idea.
"He is going through adolescence, you know, it's very difficult." Li Zitao tried to excuse Aiden.
He was angry with his son's attitude, but he could not change the fact that it was his son.
"Are you reminding me that I'm going through the birth period, breastfeeding period, or the so-called middle-aged women's syndrome?" Mary tonight is full of attack.
"I didn't say anything." Li Zitao chose to shut up because he was worried that he would go on talking, and he had to sleep in the room tonight.
"Hey, you're back, how about dinner?" Mason, who saw Aiden walking by, was looking up and asked.
All he got was an indifferent back. Aiden walked into the room without saying anything. He didn't want to listen to anything, let alone discuss.
"What's the matter?" Mason's eyes flickered, and there was a thick gossip fire burning inside.
From Aiden’s attitude, it can be imagined that the ‘show’ tonight must be wonderful~EbookFREE.me~ What is disappointing is that he has been staying at home and has not been able to watch the annual big show in person on the spot. Ever since Elizabeth left, the weekend has become a bit boring, and Mason is looking forward to something.
"Mason, did you see your brother?" The elevator rang again, and it was Li Zitao who walked out. He was sent by his wife to talk with his son. It was time to come to the father-son bureau.
"In the room." Mason had no mood to read anymore, buckled it on the lazy chair, and the whole person jumped and rushed to the room.
His room was just across from Aydin, and with the dim sum it should be possible to hear what the two were talking about, he really couldn't wait.
"Aiden, can I come in?" Li Zitao fully embodies a qualified parent and respects the child's right to privacy.
"No." Upon hearing the answer, Li Zitao pushed open the door.
"I said no." Aiden, who was lying on the bed, said.
"Yes, I heard it. Let's talk now!" The "embodiment" has already been "embodied", but now it is the father and son bureau, and he is a dad...
"Let's talk about what you and Laili thought about it. Her father...what did your mother and grandmother say?" Li Zitao wanted to know the truth.
Because in his opinion, Aiden is not like someone who will make such an opinion, at least not so fast, he should be very clear what the meeting tonight represents.
"It's nothing."
"Do you want to keep up with your mother? Every day, like strangers, do their own things, do not speak, no greetings, and there is no longer laughter in this family..."
"Isn't this normal?" Aiden said indifferently.
Because, they always stay in school, Li Zitao is flying everywhere, and Mary is the same, so the expression ‘every day’ does not exist, and laughter happens by accident, if not, it seems to be no problem.
