Therefore, the Li family once again suffered from Li Mochen’s revenge and fell into chaos.
Li Zongquan’s room, in the Li family.
Li Zongquan was already old. After being heavily hit again and again, he fell ill.
“Dad, you’ve been taught a lesson several times. Why did you still go after that girl? Things are becoming more and more unfavorable for the Li family,” Li Mingke asked exhaustedly. These days, he had been dealing with the Li family’s affairs, and he was going crazy.
“Is this how you talk to your father?” Li Zongquan was used to being domineering. Being questioned by his own son made him feel that his authority was being challenged, so he was furious.
However, due to his weak body, he was no longer powerful.
In the past, if Li Zongquan was so angry, Li Mingke would be very afraid, but at this moment, he was no longer afraid. He can’t control so much. “Is there something wrong with what I said? You fell into Mochen’s hands several times. Haven’t you learned anything? I think Mochen’s subordinates are merciful and that is why our family has not been destroyed. If you try to hurt the girl again, our family will be ruined!”
In the past, Li Mingde would definitely argue with Li Mingke, but this time he was unusually silent because he felt powerless about many things these days.
All along, because of the Li family’s status, he could do everything smoothly. He had never been in such a difficult situation before.
However, it wasn’t because of his status that things went smoothly for him! It was all because Li Zongquan was bearing the burden.
Although Li Zongquan’s character wasn’t great, he had great ambition. He also had outstanding abilities. Unfortunately, he had retired from that stage long ago due to his age, so he couldn’t manage things as much as before.
Therefore, Li Mingde had to admit that what Li Mingke said was correct, but he still resented Li Mochen. He believed that Li Mochen was a ruthless person who had no gratitude. Besides, he blamed Li Mochen for treating their family so harshly and throwing them into serious trouble.
He knew that Li Mochen had targeted the Li family because of their actions against him, but in Li Mingde’s opinion, since Li Mochen was a member of the Li family, he should listen to the arrangements of the Li family.
If the Li family bullied him, he should endure it. If the Li family needed help, he should help.
These were all his selfish desires, but others wouldn’t indulge him.
“You bastard! Is this how you destroy your own prestige by encouraging others?” Li Zongquan scolded. He couldn’t admit that Li Mochen was powerful because he was struggling to cope with what Li Mochen had done to them.
Li Mochen was just an unwanted child of the Li family. How could he be more powerful than the Li family?
“I’m not destroying my own prestige by encouraging others. How do you explain what happened several times? Dad, I’m exhausted from dealing with these things now. If you think these things are not important, then you can deal with them yourself! Anyway, I haven’t done anything illegal. I’m not afraid of investigation,” Li Mingke said. He had no intention of getting involved in the Li family’s affairs anymore.
“You…” Li Zongquan was so angry that he almost couldn’t breathe. However, he didn’t know how to refute.
“Mingke, you can’t ignore this!” When Li Mingde heard that, he was anxious. They were dealing with things together, and he was already exhausted. If Li Mingke stopped helping, what would he do alone?
Seeing Li Mingde’s helpless appearance, Li Zongquan was in pain.
“I can’t ignore it? Do I have the ability to deal with it?” Li Mingke said angrily, “I told you not to trouble Li Mochen. Did you listen? Why do you want me to deal with the trouble you caused? You should be aware of my abilities.”
“Well, I’ll only deal with this once more. If you cause trouble for Li Mochen again and make him come after the Li family, then I won’t help anymore. I don’t dare to oppose him.” After finishing, Li Mingke turned around and left Li Zongquan’s room directly.
Li Zongquan was furious. Li Mingde was also very angry, but this time he really felt wary of Li Mochen.
“Dad, why don’t we just leave Li Mochen alone for now?” Li Mingde said. He didn’t want Li Mochen to be too comfortable, but at least for now, he didn’t want to deal with him.
“You bunch of idiots…” Li Zongquan cursed loudly. He had been powerful all his life, but his sons and grandsons were all inferior to him.
The capable ones either died early or left the Li family.
He admitted that Li Mochen was capable. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have asked Li Mochen to return to help the Li family.
He thought that Li Mochen would be willing to return to the Li family, but…
…
When Leng Xiaoyao received her admission letter, she called Li Mochen. Li Mochen didn’t tell her about the movements of the Li family. He only cared about when Leng Xiaoyao would go to the capital city.
Actually, Leng Xiaoyao was going to make a trip to the capital city tomorrow because the office renovation had been completed and could be inspected.
However, Li Mochen happened to be going abroad, so he would miss Leng Xiaoyao on his own initiative.
As a result, Li Mochen was in a terrible mood, but he had important matters and couldn’t delay.
Leng Xiaoyao could only comfort him, saying that she would be going to the capital city to study at the end of the month. They could meet then.
Li Mochen took advantage of the situation and said, “I think if you agree to date me, then I’ll feel better.”
“If so, you’ll just have to be in a bad mood!” Leng Xiaoyao rolled her eyes resignedly. She wouldn’t spoil him.
Li Mochen was extremely helpless and realized that the saying was true: The one who fell in love first was destined to be the loser.
However, he was willing to lose.
The next day, Leng Xiaoyao took Mu Yufan, Zhou Yunkai, and Shen Xiyin to the capital city.
Knowing that Leng Xiaoyao and her group were coming, Wu Wensi personally drove to pick them up. After all, Wu Wensi had to be present for the project inspection. Leng Xiaoyao needed to pay the final payment then!
“Miss Leng, we’ve completed the renovation in two months as promised. We have also professionally removed formaldehyde, but there is still some odor. It’ll take at least two weeks of ventilation.” Wu Wensi said once he saw Leng Xiaoyao.
“Okay! We’re not moving in until the end of August, so we still have about a month.” Leng Xiaoyao replied.
After arriving in the capital city, they had lunch first, then they went to the company to take a look.
Although they all knew that the company wasn’t small, they were still shocked when they saw it. The decoration style was also eye-catching.
Shen Xiyin’s office was next to the jewelry display area. As the chief designer and shareholder, her office wasn’t small and was decorated extremely well.
Mu Yufan and Zhou Yunkai’s offices were much larger and better than those in City Chang. They were very satisfied.
Leng Xiaoyao was the biggest boss, but she didn’t do anything special and her office was similar to theirs.
The other offices were slightly smaller than theirs.
