Chapter 15: He Has a Girl He Likes

Shanghai Stock Exchange.

A black Maybach slowly drove into the manor villa halfway up the mountain.

The Li family's old residence remains solemn and dignified as always.

The butler was already waiting at the door.

"Young master, you've arrived. Master and Madam are waiting for you in the study."

The man grunted in response and strode inside.

Inside the study on the second floor.

"So you still know how to come back?"

Old Master Li's imposing voice rang out, though he wasn't angry.

"Didn't you tell me to come back?" Li Yanzhou walked to the sofa and sat down, crossing his legs and looking at the man in front of him with a half-smile.

“You…” Li Tianyou was speechless, and slammed his hand on the table in anger, “You unfilial son, you really are an unfilial son! How could I have raised such a son?”

“If you’re not happy, you can sever our father-son relationship.” Li Yanzhou leaned back lazily.

"Alright, alright, you two should stop talking. Ah Yan, you should back down a bit; he is, after all, your father."

Seeing this, Qin Anya quickly stepped in to smooth things over.

Li Yanzhou glanced at the newcomer but remained silent.

Li Tianyou calmed himself down, took a sip of tea from the table, and got to the point, "The reason I called you back this time is to get you back to focus and concentrate your energy on the family."

Li Yanzhou tapped the armrest absentmindedly with his knuckles, glancing at him. "Relax?"

Li Tianyou remained silent, only exchanging a glance with Qin Anya. The woman understood, smiled, and immediately took over the conversation, her voice gentle.

"Ayan, what your father and I mean is that you're not getting any younger, and it's time to settle down and think about your marriage. Your father has his eye on a few suitable girls who are around your age and are the daughters of your uncles and cousins ​​in the business world. When do you have some free time to meet them?"

"Your father and I have reached the age where we can enjoy our grandchildren."

Upon hearing this, Li Yanzhou scoffed through gritted teeth, his gaze turning to the man opposite him with amusement.

"What do you mean, 'I wonder what's going on'? Turns out you're so eager to have a grandson?"

After saying that, he turned his gaze to Qin Anya with a hint of nonchalance, "Aunt Qin, why don't you try your best to help my dad have a son late in life, and try to hold our little son before the end of the year?"

Qin Anya's expression suddenly changed, "Ayan, you..."

There was a moment of silence in the air before the woman finally said, "Why can't you understand? Your father and I are doing this for your own good."

Li Yanzhou smiled and said, "I don't need you two to worry about my affairs."

Li Tianyou remained silent for a long time before finally speaking up, "How can we, as your elders, not care about your marriage? Of course, if you have someone you like, you can tell me. As long as she is a good girl from a respectable family, your Aunt Qin and I have no objections."

Qin Anya chimed in, "Yeah, Ayan, is there a girl you like around you?"

Li Yanzhou thought for a moment, and a face appeared in his mind.

Yes, there are.

Li Tianyou looked at him with some surprise, "Really? What does her family do?"

“Her father is a drug dealer,” Li Yanzhou said deliberately.

Upon hearing this, Li Tianyou's expression changed drastically. "You...you really want to piss me off!"

Li Yanzhou further provoked him, "Dad, if you're in such a hurry to have a grandson, I wouldn't mind having one with her for you."

Seeing Li Tianyou clutching his chest, Qin Anya quickly went to comfort him, "Calm down, you have a heart condition, the doctor said you can't get too angry."

Turning to Li Yanzhou, she said helplessly, "Yanzhou, you should say less and stop provoking your father."

Li Tianyou clutched his chest, his fingers trembling as he pointed at him, "You...you get out of here!"

Li Yanzhou stood up and glanced at him indifferently, "Dad, you must take care of yourself."

After saying that, he turned and left the study.

After Li Yanzhou left, Qin Anya helped him to the sofa, patting his chest as she sighed.

"I expected this to happen, so why bother calling him back?"

Li Tianyou shook his head, seemingly unwilling. "For so many years, he has hated me because of his mother. But he is still my son. I can't just let him go. The Li family business will eventually be handed over to him. That's why I hope he can settle down and start a family sooner. It's better to have a woman to keep him in check than for him to run wild outside."

Instead of being a proper young master from a noble family, he went to the border to do some underground business and sell weapons. He is truly unruly and incorrigible.

Qin Anya gave a bitter smile. "We both know his personality. Even if we get married, who can control him?"

Li Tianyou sighed again, seemingly resigned to his fate, "Fine, go and find out who the woman he's talking about is."

**

Inside the car.

The window was half-open, and the smoke gradually blurred the man's face.

He shifted his gaze slightly, pulling his thoughts away from his past memories.

Just then, the phone rang.

It was my good friend Pei Tingyu calling.

"Where?" Two concise words.

"What's wrong with my old man?" Li Yanzhou exhaled a puff of smoke, his voice indifferent.

There was a pause on the other end of the phone. "You're not coming to today's auction? You were quite interested before."

Li Yanzhou then realized that there was such a schedule, and cursed under his breath.

Today's auction features a handcrafted, gold-plated revolver, which is rumored to be from the collection of a former Nazi leader, and is very much to his liking.

"I'm coming now."

Li Yanzhou stubbed out his cigarette, started the car, and drove off.

The auction proceeded in an orderly manner.

After Li Yanzhou strode in, he quickly came into contact with the two people already in the venue. His gaze focused on the woman behind Pei Tingyu, and he smiled.

"My sister-in-law is here too."

Seeing that he was alone, Song Lixian teased, "Didn't you say you were in a relationship? Why didn't you bring your girlfriend with you?"

Li Yanzhou coughed awkwardly, "Um... I locked him in the villa."

Upon hearing this, Pei Tingyu's expression also changed. He glanced cautiously at Song Lixian, becoming quite uneasy.

Seeing his strong will to survive, Song Lixian smiled and said nothing more.

Li Yanzhou looked at them, puzzled. "What's wrong?"

Pei Tingyu pinched him quietly, "If you don't speak, no one will think you're mute."

After saying that, he quickly changed his expression and tried to coax the woman beside him with a fawning look, "It's cold in here, Lili, let's go inside first..."

Li Yanzhou, "..."

The auction has begun.

After successfully bidding on what he wanted, Li Yanzhou became distracted.

Turning on the monitor, I saw Luo Tingwei lying half-dead on the bed, watching TV with blank eyes.

Li Yanzhou was curious about what she was looking at, so he followed her gaze.

"Tintin, Dipsy, Laa-La, Po!"

It's the Teletubbies!

Li Yanzhou was terrified.

Only two days have passed, and Luo Tingwei has already become so listless.

That won't do—
