Li Caiyi remembered that to avoid misunderstanding, her parents wanted Li Caiyi to be the one who first suggested the idea to Meng Renshu.
No matter how dull she was, Li Caiyi knew this wasn't right, considering Meng Renshu and Li Chunhua's past relationship. If words got out that Meng Renshu let a woman who had a previous relationship with him work so close to him, then various rumours would float around.
So Li Caiyi refused initially, but her parents kept pressing the issue, convincing her that no such rumor would spread. Because Li Caiyi, the legal wife, would initiate it first.
As long as Li Caiyi was aware and agreed to it, it wouldn't be a problem.
Under the pressure and urging of her parents and sister, Li Caiyi finally gave up.
