Chapter 1400: You’re Amazing
“You… you’re amazing!” Han Jing exclaimed.
Her family was a mess. Before his arrival, she had been mentally prepared that Li Qinglang might have to use his status to suppress them.
Actually, she had been thinking of that when she sought Li Qinglang’s help. When her parents saw that Li Qinglang was an important person and not to be trifled with, they would not dare to coerce them excessively.
As long as Li Qinglang gave them some benefits, they would not interfere too much.
That had been her plan, but to really use it on her parents and deal with them this way ultimately saddened her.
But to her surprise, Li Qinglang had not done that. He used a method that was most acceptable to her to achieve an ideal outcome.
Li Qinglang turned to glance at the girl. Girls who studied law were usually very calm and logical.
Especially this girl who used to be so icy. Now she was looking at him rather worshipfully over a small matter like that. He was suddenly in a very good mood.
“Actually, you must feel very helpless about your family situation to have looked for me and even asked me to pretend to be your boyfriend to solve this matter. I can tell that you want to help your elder brother, but you haven’t managed to do so yet.”
Han Jing bowed her head and said desolately, “That’s right! My elder brother works too hard. I want to help them and even change my parents’ thinking so that they won’t work my elder brother like a slave. But… I haven’t succeeded yet.”
…
By now, Li Qinglang had driven out of the village. He stopped by the roadside and said to Han Jing, “I have something to do this afternoon, so I’ll have to leave you.
“As for your family, let me give you a suggestion. Go back and think about it, and if you think it will work, I will work on it with you.”
Han Jing was startled. “What’s your suggestion?”
Li Qinglang said, “Your parents are old now. People of that age all have their own ways of thinking. Don’t think about changing them. They’re set in their ways.
“Instead of trying to change your parents so they won’t make your elder brother’s life difficult, why not try changing your younger brother? He’s still young. It’s not too late to change.”
Han Jing: “…”
She was bewildered. She had never thought of that before.
Or perhaps she had thought of it before, but her younger brother was a replica of her parents. He could not be reasoned with.
Li Qinglang suddenly thought that the girl’s bewildered look was rather adorable. When he saw her earnestly listening to him, he laughed and said, “Are you very surprised? Your younger brother is young, and your parents idolize him. If he does not take your parents’ side, will they be able to treat your elder brother as a slave?
“I remember you mentioned finding a job for your elder brother and sister-in-law so they can move out. That’s a good idea and will make their lives easier. But remember, basically your younger brother will still be useless. That way, your elder brother and sister-in-law will have to suffer your parents’ oppression all their lives, and your younger brother will always be a burden to them.
“But if your younger brother has good grades and can attend university in the future and be independent?”
Han Jing: “…”
“He… he doesn’t listen to me at all. I can’t control him…”
Li Qinglang laughed. “If he doesn’t listen to you, find a way to make him listen. Doesn’t he like meat? Doesn’t he like new clothes? He’s a child! Just find something nice and bribe him. See if he listens to you!”
Han Jing: “…”
