Under Li man, Teasing gaze, Xiaoxi looked at Li jie only to find him smiling.
"Hey jun, dont tease my daughter"-snapped mother Li.
"Ok Your husband can go to the office only because you are letting him go.
I wanted to talk about your wedding banquet, what do you both think, we have planned everything but thought to take your opinion on it too.
So tell me do you guys have any requirements?"-asked Mother Li.
"Wedding banquet?"- shocked Zhang Xiaoxi who was not expecting or to be precise not ready to go public about their relationship yet.
Looking at zhang Xiaoxi who was not happy to know about the banquet, Li Jie understood her thoughts as this marriage was sudden for both of them.
"Yes Xiaoxi, wedding banquet. I cant wait to let the world know that you are my daughter in law and Li Jie's wife."- exclaimed Mother Li with a bright smile on her face.
Looking at Mother Li enthusiasm, Zhang Xiaoxi could not bring herself to object mother Li's idea. She didn't want to make mother Li unhappy just because she was not ready for it.
She is really thankful to Mother Li for this marriage and letting her come out of her past.
But little did she know, her husband was observing all her expressions and he could make out what exactly was going in her brain.
Before Zhang Xiaoxi could say anything, she was interrupted by her husband.
" Mom , I dont think im ready for this banquet thing, and i am also very busy these days with our upcoming project. I think I will have to go abroad for this project for a month or two.Its already been all fixed. Now please dont force me to stop all these because there are so many people involved in it and i cant postpone their work too"- explained Li Jie
"What does the banquet thing have to do with you? All you have to do is come and show your face thats it. All the other things will be managed by me and your father. How is that gonna postpone your work? And why are you saying about this trip abroad now?
You just got married and you are going to be away from Xiaoxi for so long?? Tell me are you running away from your wife?" - snapped mother Li who had many expectations from this banquet.
But this cold son of hers definitely know how to spoil her mood.
Smacking Father Li 's shoulder, she sighed "I told you i want a daughter, but look at what you gave me. This brat surely knows how to spoil my mood.
On the other side look at my daughter Xiaoxi, she knew that im happy thats why she agreed to the banquet. Isn't it Xiaoxi?? "
"I-I wanted to say"-shuttered Zhang Xiaoxi.
" Mom, Listen to me please, we will arrange the banquet after i come back from my project.
Till then atleast we will get to know each other!! Please"- said Li Jie to Mother Li interrupting Zhang Xiaoxi.
Understanding that her son is hell bent of cancelling the banquet, Mother Li sighed and said
" Okay, but no more postponement of the banquet. As soon as you come from the project, we have to arrange the banquet okay??" - said Mother Li who had another plans for the banquet.
" Did you think convincing me with that "i am busy" shit will work? No way, The banquet will be organised before you go the abroad. I don't want any other flies near my daughter in law."- thought Mother Li
"Xiaoxi are you busy today?"- asked mother Li.
" No mom, I am not working on any shoot right now. I am free."- Said Zhang Xiaoxi.
"Great, Lets go shopping today. What do you say? Your mom will also join us too."-said Mother Li.
" Mom is joining us?? Okay "- said Zhang Xiaoxi who was happy to meet her mother again.
" Look at you, you are happy only because your mom is coming. You don't love me do you?- sulked Mother Li.
"No mom, i didn't mean it like that. I am sorry"-apologised Zhang Xiaoxi .
"Relax Xiaoxi, i was just kidding. I know it takes time but remember you are my daughter too and i will love you the same as your mother."- said Mother Li holding Zhang Xiaoxi hand.
"Yan, take us to shopping. " - Said Mother Li.
"Huh? why me? I have to go to work too." - retorted Li yan.
"oh work? okay, you can go. I will ask Angela to bring lunch for you." - Mother Li raised her eyebrows and said to Li Yan.
"Angela?. mom, todays meeting is not important. I can definitely go shopping with you guys. Sister-in-law lets have lots of fun today and ear lots of yummy food"-said Li Yan to which Zhang Xiaoxi nodded her head and smiled.
he would rather suffer with all the shopping than to have lunch with that plastic devil Angela.
Upstairs:
After finishing the breakfast, Li Jie and Zhang Xiaoxi returned to their room as Li Jie wants to take files and Xiaoxi wants to get ready to go shopping.
"Xiaoxi, take this card. This is my card. Use it for today, i will make it a joint card today and get another one"- said Li Jie giving his black platinum card to Xiaoxi.
" No, I have money with me. You don't have to do this."- rejected Zhang Xiaoxi.
"Shhh-didn't we agree to be a normal couple and this is what a normal husband does right?
Now that you are my wife, Please help me take care of my finances WIFEY "- said Li Jie smiling.
Listening to that WIFEY word from Li Jie, Zhang Xiaoxi blushed. Taking the card from him, she looked uptown him and smiled.
"buy whatever you like okay?? I will be home late tonight. Take care byee"- Said Li Jie who then came closer and touched the mole on her upper lip .
"Bye-you too take care"-said Zhang Xiaoxi stuttering , who then walked him to door.
"Have you made all the arrangements. remember, no one should know a thing and you people should not make my daughter uncomfortable. We will be starting to the shopping mall in an hour."-said Mother Li on the phone.

SHOPPING MALL:
After getting ready, mother Li along with Zhang Xiaoxi and Li Yan came to the shopping mall and were waiting for mother Zhang to arrive.
Meanwhile having already made her plans, Mother Li started looking around to see if everything is in place.
"mom, what are you searching for? If you are not shopping right now can we go eat some pizza, please?"- asked the foodie Li Yan.
"Yan, your sister in law has to keep up her diet. Did you forget she is an actress? She has better things to do than you. Don't spoil her diet"- scolded Mother Li
"mom its okay I can eat once in a while and haven't ate a pizza in a long time. Why don't we eat some?"- asked Zhang Xiaoxi.
But—
Cutting Mother Li who was about to say something, Li Yan dragged Zhang Xiaoxi to the pizza shop "yaaayyyy, sister in law you are the best. Let's go."
"Haizz, here I am planning something big and I am tensed and look at you, all you care is a damn pizza"- Mother Li cursed Li Yan.
"Xuilan"- Mother Zhang who has just arrived called Mother Li.
"Shuang. I am glad you came. This stupid son of mine, whom I bought for pigeon duties has took xiaoxi to pizza shop. Come let's go"- said Mother Li who then took Mother Zhang hand and started walking towards the pizza shop.
"Xuilan, do you think this idea will work? What if it backfires and what is happening between them now also goes away?"- asked Mother Zhang.
"don't worry Shuang, I have all planned and what backfire are you talking about. It won't backfire. Always think positively. And even if it backfires, I will handle everything. Don't worry."- assured Mother Li.
"okay I have faith in you and when have your plans backfired? Right from planning to trick your husband to propose you isn't it? - teased mother Li.
"oh, do you still remember it? If not for my plan, he would have proposed that bitchy girlfriend of his who has been cheating on him.
I tell you, this Li's I don't know why always fall in love with women who cheat on them. Luckily my husband got me and Li Jie got Xiaoxi.
Lets see what happens to Yan"- said Mother Li.
"okay okay Let's go now"
In the pizza shop:-
Sitting on the corner table, Zhang xiaoxi and Li Yan almost completed a whole large pizza and were giggling like kids.
"sister in law, you know from that day brother didn't touch any dogs. I think he is still scared of them. I like dogs but he never allows me to get one.
Infact he was planning to ask dad to get a dog before that incident but after that incident, he totally turned against dogs."- said Li Jun sighing.
"hahahahaha, out of all places how did it bite on his bum hahaha that's so funny.
Even me and my brother wanted to get a dog, but my mom didn't allow me to get one. She used to say that we should get one after we get married. But it seems like I can't get one even after getting married"-sighed Zhang xiaoxi.
'xiaoxi"- called Mother Zhang.
"mom"- zhang xiaoxi came running to mother zhang and hugged her.
"how are you? Did you cause any trouble in you In Law house?"- asked mother Zhang hugging her daughter.
Before zhang xiaoxi could reply, mother Li said
"she can cause as much as trouble as she wants. She is my daughter too now Shuang. don't you dare scold my daughter?- said Mother Li.
Turning towards Li Yan mother Li asked-" what were you both talking? You both seemed so happy?"
"oh nothing mom, I was just telling sister in law about how our neighbours dog had bitten brothers bum,"- said Li Jun.
"oh so you both were talking about Li Jie behind his back huhh?
Wait let me go home and then I will tell all this to my son and then we will see if you can still smile or should I say if you can still have teeth to smile?"- said Mother Li.
"mom, you can't do that I am also your son. Please mom don't tell anything to brother."- pleaded Li Yan.
"okay okay let's go shopping now said mother LI who then signalled a man who has been following them right from the minute they entered the mall.
Nodding at Mother Li, he took out his mobile phone and made a call.
Looking at the man who was making a call, Mother Li dragged Li Yan to a side.
"mom, where are you dragging me?"- asked Li Jun.
"Yan, listen to me carefully. Whatever happens you are not supposed to do anything or open your mouth. You just have to call you brother and explain him the situation is worst okay?"- explained Mother Li.
"mom, what is all these about. i know you were doing something when you asked me to join shopping. I have also noticed that man whom you were signalling from the moment we entered. Will you tell me what's going on?"- asked Li Jun.
"you, can't you keep shut and do what you are asked. I owe you one okay?"- asked Mother Li.
Li yan's eyes lit as soon as his mother told him that she owes him one. There are many things he want to do but he was scared of this mother and that brother of his. And now when he got a wish, there is no way he is going to lose it.
He gave an okay sign to his mom and then both started walking towards Zhang Xiaoxi and Mother Zhang.
As soon as the family was about to enter a shop, a group of reporters stormed towards them and startled zhang Xiaoxi who was caught off guard due to their sudden action.
Without waiting for any reaction, they started clicking pictures and asking her questions.
What do you think will happen next??
Another chapter will be up
Soon.
