Chapter 283 A Pleasant Experience

Besides, he knows very well what he has to give up to get to where he is today.

If there are genuine feelings involved, Li Guoqiang might need to reconsider.

But upon closer reflection, Li Guoqiang sadly realized that he really had no feelings for the mother and daughter.

Just as he didn't understand Xu Ping or Li Sheng'er, what he usually saw was what the mother and daughter wanted him to see. As for what they didn't see, who knows how much more they knew in private.

Xu Ping understood him to some extent; after all, they had been married for many years, and he was selfish and self-serving. He had felt happy at the beginning of their marriage, but as time went on, he saw through her true nature.

But my daughter...

Li Guoqiang always thought his daughter was well-behaved and obedient, but the truth is often cruel.

He may never have truly understood that mother and daughter.

But there's no need to know anymore; from now on, he has nothing to do with them.

At their level, they could truly separate completely if they wanted to, without even needing to submit a report, because they were already in a high enough position. As for Xu Ping and her daughter, including Xu Ping's family, they had always depended on him for their existence, and he didn't need them to tell him what to do.

We didn't need it before, and we certainly won't need it in the future.

In particular, he also had the events that happened in his family publicized.

Goodness, at first I thought Li Guoqiang was cold-blooded, but the more I listened, the more pitiful he seemed.

It's true that no one has suffered as much as him.

Because of the mission, his wife and daughters at home became someone else's.

Although his wife and daughters belong to him when he comes back during holidays, perhaps they are only interested in what's behind him.

They used to think the mother and daughter were difficult to get along with, but now they are overjoyed.

Especially for those who had lived with Li Guoqiang's family for a period of time, it was truly chaotic. Their own children had to keep quiet when they were wronged, so as not to upset Li Sheng'er. If they really did upset her, they didn't even need to make a scene in front of Li Guoqiang; Xu Ping herself would protect her child like a shrew, and she was quite unreasonable.

Li Guoqiang's resolute attitude this time, coupled with the inside story, made everyone feel relieved and also thought that Li Guoqiang did a great job.

Sympathy for the weak is not something that should be sympathized with in every weak person.

Moreover, this is someone like Li Guoqiang who has been cuckolded by his wife for so many years.

Fortunately, Li Guoqiang discovered it, and fortunately, he acted decisively.

Tsk tsk, thinking about Xu Ping's whole family, they're probably crying and wailing right now.

Some people were curious, so naturally some followed and sneaked over to see what was going on.

Sure enough, the Xu family's liveliness was quite spectacular.

At first, the Xu family was very welcoming when Xu Ping and her daughter returned. However, when Xu Ping said that she had separated from Li Guoqiang and that her daughter would stay with her, the Xu family's expressions turned sour.

The usually arrogant Li Sheng'er hid behind her mother.

Then, before Xu Ping could even move her luggage home, the Xu family urged her to go and apologize to Li Guoqiang, and they tried to persuade her earnestly.

When the Xu family finally learned what Xu Ping had done from the crowd of onlookers, they were furious and locked her out, ignoring her completely.

Such a shameful daughter, just pretend she was never born.

The more pressing question now is whether Li Guoqiang will turn against them because of this daughter.

The Xu family was immediately in a state of chaos, and the culprit was Xu Ping, who was standing outside the door.

Forget about all the gratitude I've felt over the years; at that moment, I was filled with resentment.

I wish Xu Ping had never existed.

Perhaps there's a reason why Xu Ping is so selfish.

After all, that's how I've lived since I was a child.

If Xu Ping hadn't been with Li Guoqiang, her parents would have married her off to a man whose wife had died and who still had a son, and that man was older than Xu Ping.

It's all just a mess.

After so many good years, in the end, everything is gone.

Xu Ping and her daughter truly hated Li Guoqiang.

What can be done? Li Guoqiang is just that cold-blooded. He says he won't care about them, and he doesn't care about them at all. In fact, he makes their affairs known to everyone.

He made it very seriously that he didn't want his wife and daughter anymore, especially since the daughter wasn't even his; she was his wife's child with another man.

No man with any sense of decency would accept this, let alone Li Guoqiang, who holds a high position.

As for the big fuss and the loss of face, although the higher-ups talked to Li Guoqiang and told him not to do such a thing again, Li Guoqiang readily agreed. But this is something no one can tolerate, especially since Li Guoqiang said he just discovered it. Otherwise, he would have been kept in the dark for the rest of his life and would have been a coward for life!

What could the higher-ups do? They could only pat Li Guoqiang on the shoulder with sympathy, and say nothing more.

Qin Manli, who had instigated Li Sheng'er, was stunned when she heard all this. She only wanted Li Sheng'er to steal Xiao Peichuan away, never expecting it to lead to the discovery that Li Sheng'er wasn't actually a daughter of the Li family. Nevertheless, she was still quite pleased to hear this.

After all, she was the one who had been suppressed by Li Sheng'er since childhood.

Lin Xiaotao, on the other hand, was lucky!

Qin Manli secretly considered other options.

This is why she knew nothing, didn't know the cause and effect, and didn't know that Li Guoqiang's outburst was really because of Lin Xiaotao, who was a catalyst.

If Qin Manli knew all this, she probably wouldn't have continued to provoke Lin Xiaotao.

Sometimes, ignorance is a blessing.

But for Qin Manli, ignorance could mean danger at some point in the future.

After all, being too ignorant can lead to reckless and impulsive actions, such as doing things that one wouldn't normally dare to do.

And right now, she really knows nothing.

It's just disappointing that such a good piece has been wasted.

How did it become useless?

Qin Manli sighed.

However, thinking about visiting the Cheng family with her parents later, she didn't have time to think about these things.

She was about to see Cheng Zhen, so she needed to dress up nicely.

Moreover, she had just received a lipstick, and once she put on makeup, she was sure to amaze Cheng Zhen.

Without Lin Xiaotao, Qiu Ling is even less likely to be with him; Qin Manli is the most suitable for Cheng Zhen.

Humming a song, Qin Manli thought about what to say when she saw Cheng Zhen, making sure to say something that wouldn't annoy anyone.

Some were happy while others were sad. As for Lin Xiaotao, especially Professor Song, he was overjoyed. He never expected such an outcome. Li Sheng'er, whom he thought was a huge obstacle, turned out not to be Li Guoqiang's daughter. In addition, when he met Li Guoqiang yesterday, he seemed to be on their side. Professor Song was finally able to put his mind at ease.

Lin Xiaotao was lucky.

Professor Song chuckled, his face radiating kindness and warmth.

Little Peach Blossom secretly glanced at him with Xiao Peichuan: "Is the professor alright?"

"He should be fine, right? Maybe he's just happy?"

Little Peach Blossom's eyes darted around: "Are you about to get off work?"

"Yeah, almost."

"Shall we go then?"

"Aren't you going to greet the professor?"

Little Peach Blossom quickly shook her head: "No, thank you."

Xiao Peichuan smiled and said, "Shall we sneak away?"

"Mmm, let's sneak away! Let's go quickly!" Little Peach Blossom whispered.

Xiao Peichuan smiled and said, "Okay, I'll do whatever you say."

Then the two of them secretly left.

Professor Song, who had just been squinting and daydreaming, turned around to look for Lin Xiaotao, and then asked, "Where is she?"
