And so the business deal with Lin Tiandi was settled.
Guan Yuxi was very excited.
"Brother Lie, we'll soon have our first business!"
Although she does not intend to make clothing her main profession.
But this marked the beginning of her and Leng Lie's career.
Leng Lie looked at the undisguised smile in her eyes and smoothed her hair.
"Are you that happy?"
Guan Yuxi chuckled.
What could be better than leaving the future richest man behind?
Would you feel more accomplished having him work for you?
Guan Yuxi's eyes sparkled, like a cunning little fox.
A handsome smile curved Leng Lie's lips. "I can afford to support you."
Not just you, but no matter how many children you have, I can afford to raise them.
However, he also knew.
She did these things not just for the money.
Instead, they have an urgent goal of climbing upwards.
"I will work hard with you!"
Leng Lie gently embraced her.
His gaze was deep and resolute.
Guan Yuxi tiptoed and planted a kiss on his lips.
Like a dragonfly skimming the water, it takes only a quick peck and then disappears.
Then, she hugged his strong waist tightly, rested her head on his chest, and remained motionless for a long time.
A gentle breeze rustled the branches.
The setting sun painted the sky red.
It was as if the two of them had been frozen into an eternal scene.
"Let's go see Mom."
Guan Yuxi snuggled closer to him, reluctant to leave.
The two went to the hospital hand in hand.
"I'll handle Leng Huan's matter."
Leng Lie looked into her eyes and said in a serious tone.
Guan Yuxi shook her head and smiled, "No need, I'll tell Leng Can the whole story in a bit."
Let him take care of his precious little sister!
He faced a cold and questioning gaze.
Guan Yuxi smiled but remained silent.
She's just a greedy and selfish little girl.
It's not enough to make them put in too much effort.
"Brother and sister-in-law, please come and persuade Mom!"
She wanted to go home even though her injuries hadn't fully healed.
Leng Can's eyes lit up when he saw the two of them.
Leng Huan cowered and hid behind him.
Li Chunhua glanced at the two of them, snorted coldly, and turned her back.
His cold, piercing gaze swept over the group.
"Go back if you want."
We'll go and process her discharge in a bit.
Li Chunhua sat up abruptly.
He frowned and said sarcastically, "What do you mean by that?"
"You don't want to treat me anymore?"
Leng Lie stared at her expressionlessly.
Too lazy to respond.
Guan Yuxi suppressed a laugh and asked in surprise, "Didn't you say you wanted to be discharged from the hospital?"
Li Chunfeng was so angry that he swept everything off the table.
He pointed at her angrily and said, "When did I say that?"
Leng Can was extremely embarrassed.
She tugged at her sleeve, "Mom..."
Li Chunhua looked at him with exasperation, "Shut up, you have no right to speak here!"
She threw back the covers, put on her shoes, and got out of bed.
Leng Can quickly draped a coat over her shoulders, saying, "Huanhuan, help Mom to the toilet."
"I'm not going!"
Li Chunhua brushed his hand away and rushed in front of Leng Lie.
"You know perfectly well why I was beaten, so why won't you back down?"
Do you think that treating my injuries is an act of filial piety?
"Pah! You might save me once, but can you save me forever?"
Her fingers were poking Leng Lie's chest.
Leng Lie remained motionless.
The aura emanating from him grew increasingly cold.
Seeing that he remained silent, Li Chunhua continued, "Are you mute?"
If he beats me to death, it'll be because of you!
Guan Yuxi stepped forward and pulled Leng Lie back.
They stood in front of him.
"Your man hit you, and we tried to help you out of kindness, but it became our fault?"
Should we go to the street and find someone to judge this, to see if there are any mothers like this?
"Brother Lie, you must have picked him up!"
She had wanted to say this for a long time.
Upon hearing her words, Li Chunhua flew into a rage.
She pointed at Guan Yuxi's nose and yelled, "Who do you think you are...?"
"Smack."
Guan Yuxi slapped her hand away.
She gave a cold laugh. "If you're going to talk, talk properly. Don't point your finger at people."
Li Chunhua was in pain.
Unconvinced, she raised her index finger again.
"Smack!"
This time, Leng Lie made his move. "She told you not to point, didn't you hear her?"
Li Chunhua looked at him in disbelief, "You actually went against your own mother for a woman?"
Guan Yuxi's lips curled slightly, her face full of sarcasm.
"Someone like you is worse than a biological mother, let alone a stepmother!"
You still have the nerve to bring this up?
She willingly allowed herself to be beaten by the man who came after her.
She did this all so that her eldest son would give up his job.
She even blamed everything on her eldest son.
That heart was completely biased.
Li Chunhua was trembling with anger.
He raised his hand to hit her, but then remembered that he couldn't beat her.
Leng Huan looked at Guan Yuxi with resentment and said softly, "My mom was talking to my brother."
What right does an outsider have to interrupt?
Li Chunhua's eyes immediately lit up.
Yes, Guan Yuxi hasn't been officially recognized as her daughter-in-law yet.
"Get away from me!"
"If you don't move aside, I'll slap you!"
She raised her hand to hit her.
In her opinion, Guan Yuxi would never dare to openly fight with her in front of her son.
Leng Lie's gaze was cold and piercing.
"Smack!"
He knocked her hand away as she had just raised it.
He pulled Guan Yuxi behind him, saying, "You can hit me if you want."
"If you want to hit my wife, don't blame me for being ruthless!"
