Madam Pei stared at Xie Li in astonishment. Had she heard correctly? Xie Li actually said she wanted to fight?

How could a lady from a respectable family keep talking about fighting and killing?

Madam Pei frowned slightly in displeasure, then suddenly remembered some bad rumors about Xie Li. Could it really be true?

Pei Si felt a burning sensation on his face. Although he was very unhappy with Li Chen's blow, he didn't intend to confront Li Chen directly.

After all, he himself couldn't explain why, the moment he saw Xie Li turn and leave, he suddenly became possessed and wanted to grab her.

Fighting was out of the question, and fighting Xie Li was even more impossible, as he had witnessed firsthand how terrifying Xie Li's power was.

Frustrated, she kicked the trash can next to her. "What? Nobody hit me? I was just trying to go home!"

He turned around and walked back first, getting directly into the car.

Madam Pei frowned, but could only reluctantly turn around and get into the car.

This place isn't far from Linjiang No. 1 Middle School, and there are many people coming and going. If she really causes trouble here, the Xie family will probably find out very soon.

Moreover, Xie Li sent the contents of today's conversation to Old Master Xie, which makes things difficult. We need to deal with our son's situation as soon as possible.

——

Xie Li breathed a sigh of relief after watching the group leave. To be honest, she didn't really want to fight back; who knew if they would try to extort money from her?

The Xie family's money didn't come from thin air. Grandpa didn't care; at worst, he could consider it compensation for the Pei family. But she felt that wouldn't do. At the very least, she couldn't cause trouble for Grandpa.

After thinking for a moment, she sent Grandpa Xie another message: "Grandpa, I will make a lot of money to make it up to you."

Grandpa Xie wasn't asleep. He had just finished listening to the recording Xie Li sent him and was so angry that he was pacing around the ward looking for something to hit someone with.

Xie Li's message was cryptic, but the old man understood it.

In an instant, all her anger vanished, and she dialed Xie Li's video call with a beaming smile.

Xie Li could only quickly turn off Luo Zhihan's voice call.

"Grandpa." Xie Li greeted him with a smile. Li Chen, who was standing next to him, picked up a safety helmet and came over to greet him enthusiastically, "Grandpa Xie."

Grandpa Xie's face stiffened for a moment, but he quickly realized that this was probably the Li Chen mentioned in the recording.

Xie Li had mentioned to Grandpa Xie that the two were childhood friends and had a very good relationship.

Therefore, Grandpa Xie quickly smiled and said, "Hello, Li Chen. Thank you for treating Lili to dinner today."

Grandpa Xie has been very concerned about Xie Li's whereabouts lately. He can't help it; his granddaughter is too outstanding, and he's afraid she'll be bullied by bad people.

Xie Li had informed his father about dinner tonight.

Xie Li: "Grandpa, did you listen to the recording? Will this affect our business partnership? We're not going to have to lose money, are we?"

Grandpa Xie smiled: "Lili, you did a great job today. Don't worry, your sister Lanzhi is no pushover. I've already sent her to contact the Pei family. They won't lose money."

"Moreover, the Pei family acted dishonestly in this matter. That Pei brat was already engaged to you, yet he secretly built a love nest with another girl. He clearly doesn't respect the Xie family at all!"

At this point, Old Master Xie's blood boiled again, and he slammed his fist on the table in anger.

Why did that man surnamed Pei slam his hand on the chair so fiercely? What if it frightens Lili?

The boy is so fierce, he not only doesn't know how to comfort people but also has violent tendencies. He wouldn't feel comfortable entrusting his granddaughter to someone like that.

Grandpa Xie: "Were you frightened just now? Don't worry, Grandpa will ask the Pei family for compensation."
