“Forming a team?”
Sun Tiantian looked at her best friend with a puzzled face.

She naturally knew what Ye Qianqian meant by “forming a team,” it was just that such a perilous phrase wasn’t something to say now!
Seeing that Sun Tiantian didn’t pick up the topic, Ye Qianqian also didn’t continue to discuss it, after all, it wasn’t really appropriate for the occasion.
Soon, the women found a common topic to chat about for a while.
Yang Hao, however, had no chance to chime in.
Just as everyone was chatting away enthusiastically, a member of the TV crew came to inform Li Manni and Xiao Yinqiu that the recording of the show would officially start in half an hour.
Because work was about to begin, the “tea party” thus came to an end.
Xiao Yinqiu went back to her dressing room, and Ye Qianqian along with Sun Tiantian were temporarily asked by Yang Hao to leave Li Manni’s dressing room.
“It’s the last episode of the show, make sure you perform well.”
After everyone had left, only Yang Hao and Li Manni were left in the dressing room.
“Mhm, I’ve actually gotten used to it!”
Li Manni nodded confidently. She was someone with extraordinarily strong adaptability and learning ability. Initially, when she joined the “My Idol” TV show, she indeed felt somewhat out of place, given that reporting news on the internet and hosting a variety show were two different things.
But as the recordings of the show went on, Li Manni grew more and more accustomed to her role as a variety show host. Especially after the show aired and her performance received approval from the audience, she became even more confident and now could actually enjoy being on stage.
“After we wrap up, I’ll take you out for some late-night food.”
Yang Hao said affectionately as he caressed Li Manni’s forehead.
“That sounds great!”
Whenever she had intimate interactions with Yang Hao, Li Manni would still blush. She nodded with a smile. After thinking for a moment, she then asked, “Brother-in-law, do you have time the day after tomorrow?”
“What’s up? Just tell me.”
The difference between Yang Hao and other tycoon billionaires was that while those billionaires might have jam-packed schedules every day, he was more of a hands-off manager and had plenty of time to spare.
“Grandpa’s 80th birthday is the day after tomorrow.”
“If you have time, how about we both go back?”
Li Manni looked at Yang Hao with anticipation. In truth, she had long wanted to bring this up but hadn’t found the right opportunity.
In fact, she hadn’t planned to mention it today, especially since Yang Hao had just experienced a kidnapping incident that morning.
But if she didn’t bring it up now, there wouldn’t be enough time.
“If you’re busy, it’s okay, I saw the news about the kidnappers, you must be occupied…”
Seeing that Yang Hao didn’t respond immediately, Li Manni began to backpedal, starting to make excuses for him.
“Who says I’m not free.”
“Grandpa’s 80th birthday, I must attend! But as what, exactly?”
Yang Hao looked at his little aunt with a playful gleam in his eye. If it were before, he would naturally go as the grandson-in-law.
But now that he and Li Manshu had divorced, that title naturally no longer applied.
Li Manni blushed at the question. In fact, the issue of his identity was also a challenging one for her.
Her family relatives all knew that Yang Hao was her sister’s husband, her brother-in-law!
Yet now, upon returning, Yang Hao had become her boyfriend, furthermore, being divorced from her sister, gossip was inevitable.
So, bringing Yang Hao along to her grandfather’s 80th birthday required courage.
But she wasn’t the only one to bear this pressure. In truth, a few days ago her parents had called, asking her to bring Yang Hao!
Right now, Li Manni’s parents Li Baojun and Kang Huizhi were both supportive of her relationship with Yang Hao, with one simple principle: the son-in-law must not be changed!
As for whether the son-in-law was with the older or the younger daughter, that didn’t matter to them.
It wasn’t exactly that it didn’t matter at all. Knowing what the older daughter, Li Manshu, had done, they were totally supportive of the son-in-law Yang Hao being with the younger daughter.
In fact, neither parent was supportive of a reconciliation between Yang Hao and the older daughter, Li Manshu!
“Alright, let’s adjust our mood and get ready for the recording of the program.”
Seeing Li Manni’s cheeks turn redder and not knowing how to answer, Yang Hao decided not to make it difficult for his little aunt any longer, chuckling and waving his hand.
Many questions actually don’t need explicit answers, like what identity he should assume when he goes back.
Since Li Manni had extended an invitation, her attitude was very clear.
Moreover, this must have been with the consent of Li Baojun and Kang Huizhi.
In fact, Yang Hao was quite keen to go and celebrate Li Manni’s grandfather’s birthday, as he had met the old gentleman before and had a good impression of him.
Of course, all of that wasn’t the main point. The main point was that his circumstances were now completely different than before.
Yang Hao had visited Li Manshu’s grandfather’s home with her in the past, and the relatives there, who tended toward the snobbish, especially her influential uncle who was a businessman with some success, didn’t think much of Yang Hao, who ran a hotpot restaurant at the time!
Now it was a different time. Yang Hao wasn’t one to hold grudges, but he was quite eager to see what reaction her uncle would have upon seeing him now.
mua~
Just as Yang Hao was about to leave, Li Manni suddenly gave him an unexpected kiss on the cheek.
Since they had breached the final barrier in the hotel room, they hadn’t had a chance to be alone together, and naturally, there hadn’t been any intimate gestures.
Hence, Li Manni’s “sudden attack” quite surprised Yang Hao.
“Brother-in-law, don’t forget, you’re my boyfriend now~”
