Chapter 477 The Past of Ipoh Beauties and the Subtle Living Room

"Sister-in-law, what are you thinking about! No matter what happens in the future, you will always be my sister-in-law..."

In Li Xiaofan's heart, he will always remember the kindness that Irene had shown him. A drop of water should be repaid with a spring.

"No, Afan, we will be colleagues in the future, you will be my boss, and I will no longer be your sister-in-law!"

"Okay, sister-in-law, as long as you are willing, you can work here with peace of mind unless our company goes bankrupt. To be honest, although you have not been in the company for a long time, you have helped me a lot. Your outstanding performance is obvious to everyone in the company, and our company needs you."

"Thank you, Afan! To be honest, I would rather work overtime in your company than go back to that Bukit Timah Hill villa and face that cold so-called luxury house..."

After saying that, Irene almost burst into tears and sobbed involuntarily, thinking of the end of her relationship with Tang Jiaming for many years, and the indifference and ruthlessness that Tang Jiaming and her mother-in-law treated her yesterday morning.

At this time, Lin Muchu was just outside the glass door, preparing to come in to report a project of Silicon Valley Incubator. Li Xiaofan quickly waved her over and comforted her.

Lin Muchu was the first to know about Irene's affairs. She supported Irene's divorce. There was no point in staying in that mansion. For Irene, it was just like a cold canary cage.

Since last night, Irene has left the Tang family mansion in Bukit Timah and temporarily lived in Lin Muchu's house, and began to separate from Tang Jiaming.

The Tang family's lawyer is drafting a divorce agreement according to Mr. Tang's wishes.

…

On the way back to the townhouse dormitory, Li Xiaofan called Tang Jiaming and mentioned Irene's affairs in a very tactful way.

Tang Jiaming sighed on the other end of the phone: "Afan, I'm done with Ailin. I'll have to trouble you to take her in and take care of her in the future. After all, I've been with her for so many years..."

"Brother Ming, you've been together for so many years, and you can break up just like that. Is there no possibility of saving this relationship?"

"Hey, yesterday morning she not only had a big fight with me, but also had a quarrel with my mother. She crossed my bottom line by doing this. It doesn't matter how she quarrels with me, but quarreling with my mother is too much. My mother was so angry that she almost ran back to Tokyo again! Now I can only choose between her and my mother. Afan, who do you think I can choose?"

After hearing this, Li Xiaofan was speechless. It's true that even an honest official can hardly judge family affairs, and once you enter a wealthy family, it's like entering a deep sea. It seems that Ailin finally couldn't hold back and exploded yesterday...

Since childhood, Fujiwara Kyoko has been very doting on Tang Jiaming, her precious son. Back then, Fujiwara Kyoko introduced Tang Jiaming to several daughters of wealthy families in Tokyo, hoping that Jiaming would marry a Japanese daughter-in-law. But Tang Jiaming didn't listen to her at that time and insisted on marrying Irene, who came from an ordinary family background in Singapore, which made Fujiwara Kyoko very angry.

So, since Irene came into the family, Fujiwara Kyoko has never been good to Irene. Especially after she got married, she has not been able to get pregnant. This Japanese mother-in-law blamed Irene for all the reasons. Sometimes when there were conflicts at home, Irene became her punching bag.

Last year, when Li Xiaofan first met Tang Xinyi, it was Irene's happiest period, because her mother-in-law Fujiwara Kyoko quarreled with Mr. Tang and returned to Tokyo in anger.

Sometimes, from Irene's perspective, Li Xiaofan faced a husband like Tang Jiaming and a mother-in-law like Fujiwara Kyoko, and felt that leaving this cold wealthy family was a kind of relief.

But in the culture of the Chinese people, the attitude towards couples in conflict has always been "persuading reconciliation rather than separation"...

On the phone, Li Xiaofan and Tang Jiaming didn't say much, after all, it was someone else's family affair, and they hung up the phone after chatting for a few words.

"Brother Fan, what's wrong? Are you in a bad mood?"

Seeing Li Xiaofan frowning and looking a little unhappy in the rearview mirror, A Tan, who was driving in front, asked.

Tonight, Li Xiaofan's full-time driver's daughter was sick and asked for leave, so A Tan was temporarily responsible for driving Li Xiaofan home. In order to take Li Xiaofan home, he didn't even drink alcohol that night.

"Nothing. Tan, your work performance has been great recently. Many colleagues have praised you in front of me..."

"Hey, Brother Fan, how is it, did I not embarrass you?"

"Yeah, very good! Tan, how is your personal relationship recently, do you have a girlfriend?"

"I am dating a girl from Ipoh, Perak. She is currently working at the Western Digital Electronics Factory in Bedok."

"Yeah, it's good. I heard that Ipoh is rich in beauties. For example, Michelle Yeoh is from Ipoh, right?"

"Yes, there are indeed many beauties in Ipoh."

"Tan, you keep working hard. In the future, the company will try to help you apply for a PR. Then you can marry an Ipoh beauty and buy a HDB flat in Singapore. You will be new Singaporeans in the future, and your life will be happy..."

Many Malaysian Chinese come to Singapore to work. Trying to get a PR and then buy a HDB flat is their highest ideal in life.

"Haha, Brother Fan, I really don't think that much. A jerk like me should just live happily every day."

"Ah Tan, you still have to plan your future in the long run. Your parents always hope that you can have a promising future in Singapore, make a name for yourself, and get married and have children soon, right?"

The mention of his elderly parents in Penang hit Tan's soft spot. Tan's parents in Penang were middle-aged when they had their son, so they have always doted on him.

"Brother Fan, you are right. I will work hard!" Tan's eyes became red.

"Okay, tomorrow I will ask the company's HR to help you apply for a SWP skilled worker pass. After you get the SWP pass, you can go to ITE to study a professional course in your spare time. In the future, the company will help you apply for PR at the Immigration Department!"

"Well, Brother Fan, thank you, then I will work hard in the direction you said! By the way, Brother Fan, have you been to Ipoh?"

In his previous life, Li Xiaofan and his friends went to Ipoh on their way back from a trip to Cameron Highlands near Kuala Lumpur and stayed there for a few hours. Ipoh is the hometown of the famous Chinese movie star Michelle Yeoh. It is said that Ipoh is home to beautiful women. In Li Xiaofan's impression, this is true. The Ipoh women he saw in the old town of Ipoh have beautiful faces like those of Jiangnan women.

"Well, I went there once, but it was in a hurry. I ate the famous local bean sprout chicken and came back. I forgot the taste of bean sprout chicken, but I was deeply impressed by the enthusiasm of Ipoh people..."

That evening, Li Xiaofan and his friends were looking for the legendary bean sprout chicken, a famous delicacy in Ipoh. They asked along the way. Dusk had fallen. At dusk, after passing several quiet street corners, a very popular food stall suddenly appeared. In fact, the so-called bean sprout chicken is a set meal, with white-cut chicken, bean sprouts with scallion oil, rice noodles, meatball soup and a dish of chicken rice steamed with chicken oil.

Li Xiaofan can no longer remember the taste of that year, but he still remembers the enthusiasm of the residents of the small town. On the way back to the train station from the food stall, passers-by who had met before kept greeting Li Xiaofan and his friends across the street, asking them if they had found a food stall selling bean sprout chicken, as if they were old friends who had not seen each other for a long time...

"Haha, Brother Fan, you are amazing. You even know about bean sprout chicken. Next time, let's go to Ipoh and my hometown Penang together on a weekend or holiday, Brother Fan, okay?"

"Okay, bring your Ipoh beauty with you next time, and drive my Bentley! When you return to Penang, I will be your driver, and you can tell the neighbors that this Bentley was bought in Singapore, and I am your driver..."

After hearing this, Ah Tan laughed: "Haha, Brother Fan, if we do this, my parents will have a heart attack!"

...

After Li Xiaofan returned to the terrace house, he found that the lights in the living room were particularly bright today. Guo Hanyue was back, and she and Liu Mengchen were waiting for Li Xiaofan in the living room.

"Afan, you're back!" Guo Hanyue came out to greet him warmly. After taking Li Xiaofan's briefcase as usual, she handed him a pair of sandals.

Liu Mengchen beside him suddenly felt jealous.

The situation in the living room suddenly became subtle.
