Silence.

  Go upstairs silently.

  The silent opening of the door.

  Walked silently into the room.

  Sit down in silence.

  After Li Qian left, none of the three women took the initiative to speak up.

  Wang Jingxue walked at the end, in charge of closing the door, and naturally sat down last.

  Five flavors mixed together.

  She certainly knew that her mother was helping herself, although she seemed to have said nothing, but precisely because of this, it would put great pressure on Li Qian. Although for a mature man, not to mention just the possible future mother-in-law, even if already the mother-in-law, there is nothing to be afraid of, and no need to please anything, but even if only out of sympathy for his wife, even if only to avoid letting his wife stand in the middle and be embarrassed, he would definitely be cautious and respectful towards his mother-in-law.

  Li Qian was obviously very fond of Xiaolu, although she had not agreed to marry him.

  With Li Qian's personality, he would rather sacrifice some benefits and agree to make an album for himself.

  As long as he nodded, as long as he agreed to take the helm himself, Wang Jingxue didn't have any doubts that Wu Xian Su would make a comeback with their next album. It might be a bit difficult to regain the same level of popularity they had at the beginning of the year, but selling 4-5 million copies of the new album shouldn't be a problem.

  This is not her confidence in herself or in the several sisters of Wuxin, but her confidence in Li Qian.

  Then, Wu Xing Wusu rose again, and as one of its members, it would naturally have great benefits.

  Greater fame, more income, and higher treatment.

  All of this will come with it.

  But... is it really okay to do it this way?

  To be honest, before Li Qian arrived, Wang Jingxue already knew what her mother meant by calling Li Qian over, but at that time, she couldn't bring herself to refuse her mother's kindness and stop her.

  She has a cold and aloof personality. But that doesn't mean she doesn't like the fame and everything that comes with it, otherwise, why would she have chosen to be a singer in the first place?

  So, her mother asked Xiaolu to call Jian Li. She wanted to stop him but didn't, so Jian Li came, and she wanted to say something. But she didn't say anything, so even when they were cooking together in the kitchen with her mother, she still had a chance to stop something, but she didn't say or do anything.

  In her heart, she was hoping that Li Qian would directly refuse, so that her mother, herself and Xiaolu wouldn't owe him a favor that they might not be able to repay in the future. But it had to be said, deep down, she couldn't help but have some hidden expectations.

  Maybe... maybe... maybe Li Qian originally intended to help Wu Xing Wu Su with the album? Maybe he just needed to go with the flow and it would be easy for him? Maybe he wasn't having a hard time after all?

  Then. Mom didn't say anything, then Li Qian left, and then she understood.

  It's all over now.

  No matter what choice Li Qian makes, mom's pressure has already been applied.

  It is very likely that... with Li Qian's cleverness and "thoughtfulness", tomorrow, there will probably be some accurate news about the new album of Wu Suo.

  But at this moment, she suddenly felt that she had figured it out.

  She walked into the room. She sat down silently, raised her head and looked at her mother, seeing that she was also looking back at her calmly. Wang Jingxue coughed and said, "Mom, from now on I don't want you to interfere with my affairs again."

  Tao Huijun seemed to have expected her to say that, and smiled upon hearing it, saying: "What? Did I do something wrong?"

  Although Wang Jingxue was a proud and aloof person, she had always respected her mother. It wasn't easy for her to say that her mother was wrong, but at this moment, she lowered her head for a moment, then raised it again with an unwavering gaze, "I know you're considering me, but I don't need it."

  Tao Huijun's eyes narrowed slightly, "Really don't need? Must you wait until you're really at a dead end before needing it? If you don't need it, then as a singer, why are you so idle now?"

  However, Wang Jingxue seemed to be completely unmoved and calmly said: "Tomorrow I will apply to the company to withdraw from the Wu Xing Wu Su combination. I will also call Li Qian to tell him about this."

  Tao Huijun heard this and felt a sudden twitch in her forehead muscles. She immediately stood up abruptly, "How dare you!"

  She paused, took a deep breath, and sat back down, but still couldn't help pointing at Wang Jingxue across from her. "You... it seems you really think my trip here is unnecessary? You think I invited Li Qian to dinner and had him voluntarily lower his head to help you guys out was something I did gladly? Let me tell you, Xiaoxue, you don't need to put on your spoiled princess act with me. This thing I've done, I owe Li Qian a favor, and that's something I'm aware of. But this favor ultimately still belongs to you. As for whether or not you want it, you'd better think carefully about it. If you really do feel above something like this, then you can... but if you quit the Wu Xing Wu Su combination, what will you do? What can you do?"

  Wang Jingxue heard this and bowed her head in thought, then raised it to gaze at her mother calmly, "This is my own business. Mom, I'm saying the same thing as before, don't interfere with my affairs from now on."

  Tao Huijun took a deep breath and suddenly fell silent.

  After a moment, she spoke again, "Have you thought it through? Are you quitting?"

  Wang Jingxue nodded, "I'll give Li Qian a call." After a pause, she said: "He likes Xiaolu and even wants to marry her, but he only likes Xiaolu. Just because he likes Xiaolu doesn't mean he owes us anything. Especially, he doesn't owe me, I owe him! So, I won't let him be in trouble."

  Tao Huijun took a deep breath again, seemingly wanting to say something, but temporarily unable to clear her mind, so her eyes kept blinking, and her face was unspeakably gloomy and icy.

  At this time, Wang Jingluo, who had been sitting quietly between the two of them since entering the room, suddenly raised her head. She slightly tilted her face upwards, not looking at anyone, but only staring at the snow-white wall above the TV on the opposite side.

  The eyes were dull and unfocused.

  "So Li Qian will produce an album for his sister's group then?"

  Tao Huijun and Wang Jingxue mother and daughter turned their heads to look at her.

  Taking a deep breath, Tao Huijun slowed down her tone and said: "Xiao Lu, Mom knows that doing this will put Li Qian in a difficult position. Mom knows you definitely don't want Mom to do this, but Mom really has to help your sister out. You also know how hard things are for her right now. Since you were little, you've always been so sensible and obedient. Mom believes you'll definitely understand, right?

  Wang Jinglu turned her head and glanced at Tao Huijun with a very strange look in her eyes.

  "I'll marry him!" she said, then turned her head back to the snow-white wall, her gaze also returning to being dazed, only slowly saying, like a murmur, like a whisper, "Before, I didn't know, or rather, I was always subconsciously unwilling to think about these things, always feeling that we were still young, and marriage could be put off for a while longer. And he's so formidable, suddenly jumping to such heights... in my heart, I've always thought that I could also achieve something, at least not be too much worse than him. But now... I'm sure of it, I'll marry him! Anytime, the next second, it's all possible!"

  Wang Jingxue and Tao Huijun couldn't help but stare at her in shock, as if they had never thought that Xiaolu would suddenly say something like this at a time like this.

  At this time, Wang Jinglu withdrew her gaze and lowered her head to look at the tea table in front of her. "Thank you, mom. Tonight, you made me suddenly understand a lot of things, and I suddenly understood many things."

  She paused for a moment, then suddenly smiled, her eyes narrowing slightly behind her glasses, with an indescribable sweet smile. "I know he loves me, and uses everything to love me! Even if, as you said, as his girlfriend, I've always been so indifferent to his affairs, even when he mentioned wanting to marry me several times, but was rejected by me, he still loves me, spoils me! So, since you've done all this, I'm sure that even if he's very reluctant, even if he'll lose some face, even if he'll lose more money, he'll still agree."

  "But... " For the first time, she finally turned her head to look at Tao Huijun and asked: "Mom, when you were dating Dad back then, if Grandma had done something similar, what do you think you would have done?"

  Tao Huijun was taken aback by his words and for a moment, she didn't know how to respond.

  But at this time, Wang Jinglu smiled slightly, with a hint of shyness that only belonged to young girls, but when she spoke, there was not a trace of shyness, instead, it was an unspoken decisiveness.

  She said: "Li Qian won't give Wu Xing Wu Su an album!"

  Wang Jingxue was fine, just a little surprised by Xiao Mei's sudden toughness, but Tao Huijun looked at her in astonishment, opening and closing her mouth as if she wanted to say something, but didn't say anything.

  At this time, Wang Jinglu turned her head to look at her sister and said: "Sister, thank you for thinking of me and him! But... sorry! In the future, he may or may not make an album for you, but that's just his business consideration, and has nothing to do with anything else. Especially, it must have nothing to do with me, I won't let my factors affect his judgment on some things."

  She paused for a moment, then smiled shyly again, "Because he's my man, right?"

  Wang Jingxue nodded calmly as usual and said: "Okay."

  Wang Jinglu nodded and smiled shyly.

  Then she took out her mobile phone and dialed a number under the gaze of her mother and sister.

  "Hey, are you asleep? No big deal, can you drive over and pick me up? I want to go to your place to sleep tonight."
