Chapter 223 Uninvited Guests
Upon hearing this, Li Chengru suddenly had a sarcastic smile on his face. That smile was like frost in the cold winter, revealing a hint of chill.
He shook his head slightly, his eyes full of disdain for his past experiences: "That kind of place is really not suitable for us to go to. It's full of intrigues and calculations. Every step we take must be careful, for fear of falling into a trap set by others."
He sighed softly, as if the unbearable past was still vivid in his mind.
"But, do you really agree to Feng Yizhou's request?" Li Ruochu frowned slightly, looking at Li Chengru with worry in his eyes, "You finally got out. If you go back, I'm afraid you won't have a chance to come out again."
She was well aware of the complexity and danger of that place and didn't want her brother to fall into the quagmire again.
"My parents are irresponsible people," Li Chengru said with a firm look, a hint of helplessness and determination, "As a brother, I cannot be irresponsible. I will come out after this matter is over. No matter what they ask, even if they are lonely for the rest of their lives, it is their own fault."
He clenched his fists slightly, as if to cheer himself up and show his determination.
Li Chengru has now completely gotten used to life here, which is free and free from all the intrigue.
As for the days of intrigue and deception in the family, he didn't want to go through them even for a moment.
After hearing this, Li Ruochu's mouth corners slightly raised, and he smiled lightly, with a light of joy in his eyes: "Then I will definitely come back, and then I will have my brother to protect me in China."
There was a hint of playfulness and anticipation in her voice, as if she had already seen a beautiful picture of having her brother protect her in the future.
"Bao'er, you're saying this as if I've been bullying you all along," Feng Yizhou gently squeezed Li Ruochu's hand, his eyes full of doting, but also a hint of worry, "You can't say that."
He looked at Li Ruchu, hoping that she would be more careful with her words and not cause any misunderstanding from Li Chengru. After all, he knew very well how much Li Chengru loved his sister.
"My sister is right," Li Chengru raised his eyebrows slightly, with a hint of majesty in his eyes, and looked at Feng Yizhou, "From now on, I will protect my sister. You must be careful. If I find out that you bullied my sister, I will not let you go."
His voice was deep and powerful, carrying an unmistakable warning.
"Don't worry, I won't give you this chance." Feng Yizhou held Li Ruchu's hand tightly, as if swearing his determination to Li Chengru, his eyes full of affection and determination.
After a few days of peace and quiet, the originally peaceful Bishui Pavilion welcomed an uninvited guest.
Rong Shu was wearing a gorgeous yet dignified cheongsam and walked into the Bishui Pavilion with elegant yet sharp steps.
When she saw Feng Yizhou and Li Ruchu coming back hand in hand, her already stern expression suddenly darkened, and a barely perceptible anger flashed in her eyes.
When Li Ruochu saw this woman, his face froze slightly and a feeling of uneasiness surged in his heart.
She subconsciously grasped Feng Yizhou's hand, and then said to Feng Yizhou beside her in a low voice: "Why is your grandma here?"
There was a hint of nervousness in her voice. After all, Rong Shu's previous behavior made her dare not take it lightly.
"Go back to your room and wait for me first," Feng Yizhou patted Li Ruochu's hand gently, his eyes full of comfort, "I'll take care of it."
He didn't want his grandmother to hurt Li Ruchu. Knowing his grandmother's methods and temper, he had to be careful.
Li Ruochu obediently walked towards the room, taking every step carefully, as if there were countless pairs of eyes staring at her from behind.
She could feel Rong Shu's disdainful gaze, but she could only suppress her inner uneasiness, quickened her pace, walked into the room, and then gently closed the door.
Rong Shu looked at Li Ruochu walking into the room, her lips curled up with a hint of contempt, and she snorted with disdain: "Feng Yizhou, this is the woman you carefully selected." She shook her head slightly, her eyes full of disgust, "If she doesn't even have this much courage, how can she achieve great things in the future?"
Her voice was sharp and mean, echoing in the empty living room.
"My woman doesn't need her to be big and powerful," Feng Yizhou frowned, with a hint of displeasure in his eyes, looking straight at his grandmother, "As long as I am here, I can protect her."
His tone was firm and unquestionable, as if he was declaring to grandma his determination to protect Li Ruchu.
Then, he changed his tone and asked coldly, "What exactly do you want to do by coming here, old man?"
"Where is Zhong Tingyan?" Rong Shu stared at Feng Yizhou with a sharp gaze, her eyes full of questioning.
She really didn't expect that they would ignore her objections and bring the person back to China. It was clear that they didn't take her seriously, which made her furious.
"Have you dealt with the matter in Country F?" Feng Yizhou was not afraid of his grandmother's gaze at all. Instead, he said sarcastically, "I actually let you have time to come here and cause trouble for us."
He narrowed his eyes slightly, with a hint of vigilance in his eyes.
"I told you a long time ago," Rong Shu was shaking with anger, pointing at Feng Yizhou, "Zhong Tingyan is the only child left by your aunt, you must protect him well. You can even hurt your own brother for such a woman."
She shook her head in grief, "I really don't understand what you can't do in the future?"
"I think I've done a great job for a woman." Feng Yizhou shrugged disapprovingly, with a faint smile on his face. "Shouldn't grandma be proud of me?"
He ignored his grandmother's accusations and took out his mobile phone, found a video, handed it to his grandmother, and showed her Zhong Tingyan's current situation.
"Don't worry, grandma. Zhong Tingyan is doing well now," Feng Yizhou pointed at the phone screen and said slowly, "I think he is happier now than when he was in Country F. What do you think, grandma?"
In the video, Zhong Tingyan is in a deserted place, surrounded by a vast wilderness, with only a lonely house and a piece of reclaimed land.
Occasionally, he could see people bringing him food from time to time. Although Zhong Tingyan was in a remote place, he seemed to be at ease.
When Rong Shu saw this, her face suddenly froze and a trace of panic and anger flashed in her eyes.
She stared at the screen of her mobile phone and asked anxiously, "Where is he? Where is he now?" Her voice trembled slightly with excitement, and her hands clenched into fists unconsciously.
"When will grandma understand that I am not feeling well?" Feng Yizhou put away his phone and looked at his grandmother coldly with a hint of threat in his eyes. "I will send the person back to you at that time."
He raised his chin slightly and spoke meaningfully, as if to make his attitude and bottom line clear to his grandmother.
