There is a line in Chapter 510
"That felt great!" Yang Mi stretched comfortably after coming out of the study, and let out a long breath, looking refreshed.

But her face quickly fell: "Sure enough, no matter how proactive I am, I will still be beaten down in the end—what a bastard, just leaving me in the study and not caring about anything."

Actually, they did take care of her. The maid named Masami Nagasawa waited outside until she regained her strength before bringing in clothes for her to change into.

However, how can a woman not be petty and calculating?

"I don't think I'm pregnant, do I?" Da Mimi touched her belly, her expression quite complicated.

Although after that day, in the simulated future, the five children were back to having four, but... what the hell is the difference?!
But it was impossible not to be intimate with him. I had already fully experienced the effects of the second skill, especially after three months of closed training, which amplified the importance of the second skill several times over.

Therefore, before Yang Mi, Tang Yan and Liu Shishi had already secretly come together and had their meal together first.

"Forget it, don't think about these things. It's all the same whether you stick your neck out or not..." Yang Mi shook her head dejectedly, and then saw Lin Zhiling walking over from the stairwell.

"You're out, Miss Yang." The housekeeper nodded politely.

Da Mimi rolled her eyes and then realized, "Liying asked you to come and take a look?"

"Yes," the housekeeper nodded with a smile.

"I'll go down now," Yang Mi said dryly.

As she passed by Lin Zhiling, she couldn't help but glance at her a few more times. The other woman had such good manners. It was a pity that she only had one maid, let alone a butler.

But it doesn't matter, Zhao Liying can occasionally take on the roles of maid and assistant, since she also acts as a personal assistant.

However… Yang Mi frowned slightly. Lately, her assistant had always seemed preoccupied. When asked, she wouldn't say anything, but her work was still going well, so she didn't use the simulation system to find out what was going on.

Upon arriving in the living room, Zhao Liying, upon seeing her, first stood up with delight, then turned to astonishment.

"Yes, I changed my clothes." Da Mimi, realizing what had happened, was slightly embarrassed.

Although the clothes fit fairly well, well, how should I put it, because of secondary development in certain areas, they're sticking up a bit too high.

"What's wrong?" she couldn't help but ask, seeing Zhao Liying's expression change from surprise to disappointment.

"N-nothing, Sister Mi..." Zhao Liying forced a smile.

"Really nothing?" Yang Mi asked again.

"It's really nothing..." Zhao Liying lowered her head. "Everything... is it all taken care of?"

Yang Mi's attention was immediately diverted. After glancing at the stairs over there, she coughed and said, "Everything's taken care of. Let's go."

After leaving the villa and arriving at her car, the assistant was still somewhat absent-minded, so she got into the driver's seat.

"Um, Sister Honey..." Zhao Liying tried to say something after realizing what was happening.

"Alright, alright, let's get in the car quickly." Yang Mi waved her hands repeatedly, deciding to take some time to simulate the situation and see what was going on with her assistant.

However, it's best to leave now. It's really not a good thing to say that someone is sending you off like this, and if Liu Qianqian finds out, she'll definitely laugh like a pig.

Speaking of which, did she sneak a bite beforehand? Probably not, since her aunt has been taking her with her all this time, especially during this trip to Hong Kong.

Meanwhile in Hong Kong, Liu Xiaoli put away her phone, looked out the window, and sighed with a wry smile. Her younger brother was surrounded by more and more women; this kind of thing was inevitable. She was being too concerned; she should have pretended not to hear… But no! She had to point it out so her younger brother would realize his worth, feel embarrassed, and make amends to his older sister!

Of course, Liu Xiaoli also understood that these little tricks had to be handled carefully, not too much and not too little, because her younger brother had too many "capable" people around him.

While there are advantages to staying behind the scenes, there are also disadvantages. Sometimes, being slow to react can be fatal.

Thinking of this, her expression turned solemn, but also tinged with a hint of helplessness. Although her daughter had grown somewhat, she was still far from enough, to the point that in the recently simulated future…

"Mr. Liu, they have finished their discussion," Xue Kaiqi said softly as she approached him.

"I understand." Liu Xiaoli composed herself and returned to the conference room behind her with her.

The moment she entered, she looked at her lawyer, who simply shook his head slightly.

Liu Xiaoli sneered inwardly, then sat down and asked Zhou Xingchi across from her directly, "Mr. Zhou, shouldn't you have a result by now?"

“Hmm… I think some of the terms should be adjusted as follows…” Zhou Xingchi was dressed casually, and his hair was a little long. He also looked a bit tired and lacked energy, looking like he was a few years older.

“Mr. Zhou, you seem to have misunderstood something,” Liu Xiaoli interrupted him bluntly after listening to his request for two minutes. “Today’s topic is only about permission or disapproval.”

Although Stephen Chow had a gloomy expression, his ears were noticeably red and his brows showed resentment.

Yu Wenfeng, who was standing nearby, immediately chimed in: "Ms. Liu, you're being a bit too forward..."

However, Liu Xiaoli did not back down at all: "By what right do you speak to me, Miss Yu? Mr. Zhou's girlfriend? Mr. Zhou's fiancée? Or Xinghui's accountant?"

Yu Wenfeng was speechless.

“From last year until now, the lawsuit has been fought and the verdict has been handed down, but Mr. Zhou is still arguing here. What, is he out of money?” Liu Xiaoli sneered. “It doesn’t matter, he can borrow money. With Mr. Zhou’s reputation, there are plenty of people who would lend to him. At least Mr. Xiang would be very willing.”

“I just think the terms of the contract…” Zhou Xingchi wanted to explain, but was interrupted by Liu Xiaoli again: “I think Mr. Zhou took my understanding and concessions as weakness. In Mr. Zhou’s dictionary, there is no concept of win-win, only taking an inch and wanting a mile.”

"...After all, I am a celebrity." Stephen Chow took a deep breath, having already lowered his stance considerably.

Unfortunately, Liu Xiaoli didn't like him at all. She immediately got up and walked outside, but stopped at the door: "I actually really like your work, Mr. Zhou. I still remember some of the lines, like that line from 'The Return of the Soul'..."

She turned her head and said, word by word, "Sometimes, you just throw away your pride yourself on your own!"

Even though Stephen Chow tried his best to maintain a blank expression, his face darkened and his fists clenched.

However, Liu Xiaoli didn't care at all. She led Xue Kaiqi all the way to the elevator. After they went in and pressed the button for the lobby, Yu Wenfeng caught up.

“Ms. Liu, perhaps… we can still talk…” she said, slightly out of breath.

“I’ve handed everything over to Attorney Chen. If Ms. Yu has anything else to say, she can speak to him directly.” Liu Xiaoli shrugged.

“That’s not it…” Yu Wenfeng took a deep breath. “Actually, I wanted to apologize on behalf of A-Xing. That person of his… how should I put it, is a bit awkward…”

Liu Xiaoli was silent for a few seconds: "Ms. Yu, does Mr. Zhou know that you came to apologize on his behalf?"

Yu Wenfeng was silent for a long time before saying, "As I just said, he can be quite awkward sometimes. Even when he knows he's wrong, he has too much pride and just won't admit it..."
