Chapter 261 Is Bu Li kept around to collect debts?

With her daughter as a genuine amulet for comparison, Aunt Liu immediately saw through the trickery involved.

Especially after that, she had someone help her investigate whether anything else had happened to Li Yonghu after she received these amulets.

Sure enough, before this car accident, Li Yonghu had also encountered an accident involving a sudden elevator drop, which was also extremely dangerous, but he ultimately escaped unharmed.

With such a coincidence of several things happening together, even if Aunt Liu wanted to deceive herself, she couldn't.

"I didn't expect it, I really didn't expect it..."

Liu Yunrui's eyes were red and swollen. She knew it was impolite to cry in front of strangers, but she still couldn't help but shed tears.

If Li Yonghu had only swapped her card, she would have let it go. Although she would feel heartbroken and sad, she wouldn't be so angry, disgusted, or even hateful.

Liu Yunrui had no doubt that if she hadn't accidentally sent her daughter to stay at her parents' house temporarily, the amulet on her daughter's body would not have been safe.

He could have easily talked things out and come up with a solution together, but he didn't. Instead, he only thought about stealing the talisman.

Liu Yunrui could understand his fear of death, but she could not accept that he would transfer the danger to her and their child.

After more than twenty years of being in love, this pitiful woman finally realized that the husband she loved so deeply did not love her or their children at all; he only loved himself!

As soon as Liu Yunrui started crying, Liu Zhengqing and his son rushed over to comfort her.

Ye Wanxi was not surprised at all by this development, or rather, she had already anticipated this day when she handed those peace charms to Liu Zhengqing.

"So, he has already made his decision."

Liu Zhengqing was stunned. He looked at Ye Wanxi sitting on the sofa opposite him in surprise.

She vaguely recalled what Ye Wanxi had said during their last meeting.

"Whether he clings to what doesn't belong to him, making his family pay for everything he's done, or whether he gives up the stolen luxury and false fame to seek a glimmer of hope for his family, it all depends on his choice."

Faced with the choice between family and fame, my uncle ultimately chose the latter.

Ye Wanxi took the freshly squeezed orange juice from Gao Min, took a sip, and then turned to look at everyone, asking, "And you?"

Liu Yunrui, tears still streaming down her face, stared blankly at her.

What are your choices?

"This..." Before Mr. Liu could say anything, his sister stopped him.

"Yunrui?"

Liu Yunrui gritted her teeth, got up and walked to Ye Wanxi, and then bent her knees as if to kneel down.

"aunt!"

The expected scene did not occur. Liu Yunrui stared wide-eyed in surprise because she discovered that she simply could not bend her knees or kneel down!

Tell me, what do you want me to do?

Ye Wanxi's face did not show much emotion, and her tone was quite calm.

But precisely because of this, it miraculously possesses a magical power to calm people down, making Liu Yunrui instinctively want to grasp this last straw.

“I want to ask you to help me and my two children. They are innocent and should not suffer like this because of Li Yonghu.”

Ye Wanxi was silent for a moment, then glanced at Liu Zhengqing: "I already told your nephew about the solution last time."

"Masakiyoshi?"

Liu Zhengqing was caught off guard by the probing gazes of several elders, and cold sweat broke out on his brow.

"Ms. Ye did mention a solution to me."

Mr. Liu's face darkened slightly, and he was somewhat angry: "Then why didn't you say so?"

Liu Yunrui knew her nephew's temperament; since he hadn't said anything, it was probably because the solution was too difficult to talk about.

"Brother, don't be in a hurry, let Zhengqing explain properly."

Liu Zhengqing glanced at Ye Wanxi, and seeing that she really didn't intend to interrupt, he braced himself and said, "Miss Ye did mention a solution to me, but I don't know how to tell my aunt."

"What time is it? Human life is at stake. What's there to be ashamed of?"

"Miss Ye said that if Aunt wants to get out of her current predicament, the only way is to divorce Uncle, and after the divorce, it would be best to never see each other again and completely sever ties."

The brother and sister were stunned, and finally understood why the child said he didn't know how to tell his aunt.

If it were before, he would have dared to say such a thing to Liu Yunrui, and she definitely wouldn't have believed him. She might even have scolded him for it, and if she got angry, she might not have even accepted those three peace charms.

But now...

"Divorce! We must divorce!" Ever since Mr. Liu learned that everything that had happened to his sister's family recently was retribution for the heinous things his brother-in-law had done, he had been burning with anger.

Especially after learning that the bastard was completely unrepentant and had secretly switched the life-saving amulets for his sister and nephew, she almost rushed to the Li family and gave him a good beating.

Why keep such a cold-blooded, morally corrupt, hypocritical scoundrel around if not to leave him?

Liu Yunrui's hands, hanging by her sides, tightened unconsciously as she gritted her teeth and said, "Fine, I'll divorce him."

After saying those words, Liu Yunrui felt a sense of relief wash over her.

After this incident, the beautiful love she had cherished for so many years was now shrouded in shadow.

I can't even imagine what it would be like to live under the same roof as Li Yonghu again. What if something really happens one day and I'm pushed out to be a scapegoat?

Hearing her say that, Mr. Liu breathed a sigh of relief: "That's right. You still have your brother and sister-in-law, and your parents. It's not like you don't have your own family. There's no reason to swallow your anger when someone has a knife to your throat."

"Mmm." Hearing her brother say that, Liu Yunrui's eyes reddened again, and her anxious heart gradually calmed down.

"Ms. Ye, if I divorce him, will I and my two children be safe?"

Ye Wanxi shook her head: "Divorce can only save you."

Liu Yunrui was shocked: "You can only save me? What about my child?"

“Mr. Liu should have told you that everything you’re going through now is because of the bad things your husband did in his younger days. Some of those things are quite shameful…” Ye Wanxi raised her eyes and uttered two words softly, “Debts of life.”

"A life...a life debt?" The Liu family members' hearts pounded, and their faces turned pale.

No wonder the Li family's situation has escalated, especially Li Yonghu's. If it weren't for those two peace talismans, he would probably be dead by now!

“Your two children are related to Li Yonghu by blood. Apart from Li Yonghu himself, they are the main targets of revenge. Even if you divorce and take the children away from him, you still cannot escape these karmic debts. The children may be spared, but they will suffer a life of hardship and displacement.”

After Ye Wanxi finished speaking, Liu Yunrui was completely stunned. After a long while, she pleaded in a trembling voice, "Miss Ye, please, help me, help my child."

"The only person who can help you and your child is yourself."
