Fated to My Billionaire Husband

Of course, when it came to the elders, Li Mingxi could only complain in her heart and definitely didn’t dare say it out loud.

"Grandma, I don’t have anyone I like, so I’d rather just find someone I can get along respectfully with and get married," Li Mingxi said with a smile.

Grandma Li looked puzzled. "You don’t like Xiao Lang?"

"I don’t."

"Really?" Grandma Li stared into her eyes, trying to see something.

Li Mingxi’s gaze was calm. "Really."

"But he likes you. It’s best for a woman to marry a man who likes her. It’s fine if you don’t like Xiao Lang that much, as long as he likes you, that’s enough."

"Grandma, you want me to marry him?" Li Mingxi asked back.

Grandma Li smiled. "Your parents and I all think Xiao Lang is a good choice. He doesn’t have parents, so if you marry him, you don’t have to deal with in-laws. Li Qian is pretty good too, but Xiao Lang is more suitable for you."

"Grandma, you’re really burning the bridge after crossing the river here. Now that there’s a better option in Xiao Lang, you just want me to give up on Li Qian?" Li Mingxi asked with a deliberate smile.

Grandma Li smiled a little embarrassed. "We’re doing this for your own good. Besides, you and Li Qian haven’t even confirmed you’re boyfriend and girlfriend."

"But I’m still thinking about it. Grandma, I won’t choose Xiao Lang. As for Li Qian, I might consider him. That’s it, I’m going upstairs."

Li Mingxi didn’t want to say anything more and went straight upstairs.

She knew that if Grandma and the others kept pressuring her like this, they’d only push her to accept Li Qian even faster.

As for Xiao Lang, there was no way she would ever accept him.

Looks like she needed to cut the knot quickly; if this dragged on, it’d be bad for everyone.

...

Early the next morning, Li Mingxi got up very early.

As long as she slept well at night, she always got up early during the day.

Li Mingxi went downstairs toward the dining room and then heard Xiao Lang’s voice again.

"Here, eat more." Grandma Li, beaming, pushed a bowl of porridge in front of him.

Xiao Lang smiled faintly. "Thank you, Grandma."

"Tasty?"

"Tasty."

"From now on, come to my place for breakfast every morning. Come for lunch and dinner too. Our family, ah, is just short on people. Only when you come do I feel the house is much livelier," Grandma Li said happily.

Li Mingxi was speechless. Could Grandma possibly like him any more?

And also, what was Xiao Lang doing here again? When did he become as unshakeable as Xiaoqiang?

"Mingxi, come eat breakfast," her mother called out as soon as she spotted her.

Xiao Lang turned his head to look over, complex emotions flickering in his dark eyes.

Li Mingxi walked over, picked up a piece of bread, and said calmly, "I’ve got something urgent today. You all eat, I have to leave right away."

"What’s so urgent that you can’t even have a proper breakfast?" Grandma Li asked.

"There’s a surgery at nine this morning, I have to go early to get ready." With that, Li Mingxi left, and this time no one tried to stop her.

After all, they had no way of knowing whether what she said was true or not.

Watching Li Mingxi’s back as she walked out, Xiao Lang pressed his lips together, stood up, and said, "Grandma, Uncle, Auntie, I’ll get going too. I’ll come see you another day."

With that, he left as well, quickly going after Li Mingxi.

Li Mingxi shut the car door. Seeing Xiao Lang come out, she didn’t say a word to him and started the car to drive away.

...

Xiao Lang’s car followed behind hers the whole time, keeping pace with her, not too close, not too far.

Li Mingxi drove normally, completely ignoring his presence.

When the car reached the hospital, Li Mingxi parked, then opened the door and got out.

"Mingxi." Xiao Lang got out of his car and called after her.
