Chapter 26 Reputation

Li Ke didn't know why Li Zhenzhen suddenly became so attentive to her, but she didn't refuse. In her previous life, she had also applied medicine to her face, but it only made her condition worse. That medicine was given to her by Chen Jiaojiao.

Later, she thought her skin was too sensitive, and for more than half a year, she dared not apply anything and only washed her face with water. It wasn't until the end of her first semester of college that her face completely recovered.

After hearing Li Ke's agreement, Li Zhenzhen left Li Ke's room.

Li Ke glanced at the little fish in the space and noticed they seemed a bit listless. After thinking for a moment, she realized she had forgotten to feed them. She found some fish food and sprinkled a little bit, and the little fish eagerly began to eat it.

It seems that this space treats these small lives better than it treats humans, and there appears to be no time limit.

The two flowers were still the same as before, without any change. Li Ke planned to buy a few more live chickens and ducks to put in the space today to try it out.

When Li Ke came downstairs, there was no food left in the kitchen. Li Zhenzhen saw her coming downstairs and didn't wait for her to eat breakfast. She got up and walked out directly: "Hurry up and go. The doctor I found for you is very busy. It's not good to miss the appointment time."

Li Ke didn't say much, and with an empty stomach, she walked out with Li Zhenzhen.

After getting into the car, Li Zhenzhen gave the address, and the driver started the car.

After the car had been driving for a while, Li Ke looked at Li Zhenzhen, who was silently standing next to her, and said, "I have no money left, my clothes and shoes don't fit anymore, I don't have money for food, and I haven't had breakfast today. Aunt Chen has been not saving food for me lately, and she won't allow me to cook for myself."

When Li Zhenzhen saw the driver's eyes in the rearview mirror, although the driver looked away in embarrassment first, Li Zhenzhen still felt both ashamed and angry. This Li Ke, he had to say such things in front of outsiders, just to provoke her.

Li Ke's identity is not a secret in the Chen family. Only some outsiders who are very distant from her would really believe that Li Ke is her niece. Others who are closer to her, according to Chen Zhizhi and Grandma Chen, all know that they are mother and daughter.

This also included their driver and maid. Li Zhenzhen had always felt that Li Ke's presence was affecting her reputation. She originally thought it was nothing, but after actually bringing him over, with Chen Xian and Chen Zhizhi stirring up trouble, the result was really disappointing.

Li Zhenzhen smiled gently and said, "Why didn't you say so earlier? I'll transfer the money to your phone now."

Li Ke opened her phone and saw that Li Zhen was quite generous this time, transferring five thousand yuan to her at once. Li Ke clicked to accept the transfer, and then said, "This amount of money is only enough to buy the heels of the shoes that Jiao Jiao bought last time. Auntie, I'm missing a lot of things."

Li Zhenzhen's smile didn't reach her eyes. She glanced at her phone and said, "I forgot to add a zero. It was my carelessness."

Li Zhenzhen transferred another 45,000 yuan to Li Ke, with the note "Stop when you should."

Li Ke accepted the gift with a smile, saying very dutifully, "Thank you, Auntie, you're the best."

Li Zhenzhen felt a tightness in her chest and ignored Li Ke. If she weren't afraid that this girl would continue to speak recklessly in the car, she wouldn't care about the driver's opinion.

Li Zhenzhen took Li Ke to a beauty salon that looked quite high-end. In his previous life, after going to university, Li Ke often accompanied Chen Jiaojiao to such places.

But Chen Jiaojiao was the only customer; Li Ke was just sitting in the lobby or lounge, holding her phone and guarding her shopping bags, waiting.

After carefully examining Li Ke's condition, the doctor diagnosed her with sensitive skin and some allergies, and prescribed some topical medication.

When Li Ke left the club, she was carrying a bag of skincare products, which she had just tried under the guidance of a beautician and found to be quite good.

The young lady serving her had soft fingers and a sweet voice. Even though her face was covered in red marks, her true beauty was still evident. She showered her with sincere compliments, praising her from head to toe. The whole process was truly delightful.

Li Zhenzhen led Li Ke towards the parking lot, saying, "Since you gave up the college entrance examination, it means you don't plan to continue your studies. In two months, you'll be eighteen. I've found you an internship at your aunt's company. Once your face has healed, you can go there. Your aunt likes you a lot, and you won't be mistreated working for her."

Li Ke stopped in her tracks and wondered why Li Zhenzhen had suddenly become so patient with her. It turned out that Aunt Chen had plotted against her.

"Let's talk about it after my face heals and after my birthday. By the way, I plan to go back to my hometown tomorrow to see my grandparents and burn some paper money for them. It's been so long, my aunt definitely won't visit them. I wonder how they're doing down there?" Li Ke said, stopping in her tracks.

Upon hearing this, Li Zhenzhen's face flashed with complex emotions, and her tone softened slightly: "Should I arrange for someone to go back with you?"

The grandparents that Li Ke mentioned are Li Zhenzhen's biological parents. After her uncle died, her aunt stopped being filial to her grandmother. Over the years, Li Zhenzhen has not gone back to visit the two elderly people's graves.

Looking at Li Zhenzhen's gentle demeanor, Li Ke felt that this woman was truly cold-hearted, not only towards her parents but also towards her children.

"No need, I can manage on my own. I remember the way. If you're so kind, please give me some more money so I can give it to my grandparents," Li Ke said.

Li Zhenzhen transferred another 10,000 yuan to Li Ke, and the two went their separate ways. Li Ke found a breakfast shop, had a hearty meal, and then found a place to change clothes again.

Then he went to a hardware store and bought three chainsaws, two sets of boning knives, two machetes, two axes, and three pairs of bolt cutters and three pairs of nail guns. He spent nearly two thousand yuan in total, and Li Ke paid in cash as usual.
