Li Su dared not come to him again. From that day on, Li's mother's torment of Li Su intensified. At first, she only blamed and resented him.
Hearing his words, they were filled with hatred. They had no evidence and couldn't do anything to Li Su, but they could make things difficult for her.
Li Hun said those words on purpose. With his mother's figure reflected in the window, Li Hun had already noticed that someone was outside the door.
For two years, he watched Li Su suffer every day, but what did it matter? Li Su was simply going back to the life she was meant to have.
His leg would never heal, and it wasn't until long ago that he had the chance to change his life. After the sibling bond was severed, Li Su became a stranger to him.
Or rather, even a chess piece that is less valuable than a stranger should be used to its fullest potential.
Li Hun felt a little uncomfortable as Long Tian gripped his shirt tightly, but considering Long Tian's expression and Li Su's future good fortune, he endured it.
Seemingly dissatisfied with his own unclear statement, Li Hun spoke again.
"Long Tian, I don't know what deal Li Su made with you, nor do I know why she betrayed us and even went to Li Yi's house today, but my..."
"What did you say? Li Su also went to Li Yi's house."
As if he had overheard something he shouldn't have, Long Tian flew into a rage.
Why would they betray him? Of course, it's to eliminate him as a competitor.
"Li Su went to Li Yi's family, and what happened in the end? No, what happened to Li Yi?"
In his panic, Long Tian seemed to speak incoherently, his words not even forming a coherent sentence, but Li Hun understood him.
"Li Yiyi is fine, but Li Su isn't doing so well. She might have to go to someone else's house after today."
With a slight smile, Li Hun spoke as if it were nothing more than a calm and collected statement. Long Tian was slightly taken aback; his mind was still stuck in the future.
Li Su is so young, why is she going to someone else's house? Could it be...?
It's not what you think.
Seeing Long Tian's expression, Li Hun knew that Long Tian had misunderstood. He would never allow Li's mother to do anything that would damage their family's reputation.
If he really did that, Long Tian might even feel sympathy for Li Su, which is not the outcome he wants.
“Li Su is going to enjoy a good life. She is still young. No matter how much my mother dislikes her, she will not marry her off. However, our family really doesn’t have the ability to support her anymore. After discussing it, my mother decided to give Li Su to another family to be their daughter.”
"They found Li Su a good family. Both of them work at the meat processing plant, so they should be able to support Li Su."
Concealing the dark glint in his eyes, what Li Hun didn't say was...
That family had ulterior motives in seeking out Li Su, but that wasn't their business; it was Li Su's business. Didn't Li Su want a wealthier family? They would grant her that wish.
"Long Tian, whether you believe it or not, I didn't lie. Whether it was a deliberate betrayal or whether Li Su was involved, you can find out by asking those girls."
Pulling Long Tian's hand away and freeing his shirt, Li Hun was about to leave when Long Tian's voice came from behind him.
"I'm very satisfied with your information. I'll give you Li Hun's information too. It was Li Su's contact person who deliberately broke your leg. By the way, do you want me to tell you who those people are?"
Li Hun stiffened and turned to look at Long Tian.
"Thank you, but no need. I'll come back to you after I find out."
Long Tian was impressed by Li Su's calm demeanor, but he also realized something: Li Hun might have already known about Li Su's foolish deeds.
How could Li Hun not want to know who broke his leg?
But what good is finding them when they're still young and inexperienced? Even if they're identified, what good is a single leg? Does that mean they'll pay with their lives?
Another point is that his leg has healed. So, if we really want to calculate things, it's hard to say who came out on the worse side.
Revenge should be taken slowly. Li Su, the mastermind, is currently in the process, so those burly men can wait. He has plenty of time!
As soon as Li Hun left, Long Tian followed him.
If Li Su really was behind the betrayal, he felt he wouldn't get away with it easily.
He wanted to see just how good Li Su's family was, and that he could enjoy a life of luxury in his next life!
The next day, neither Li Su nor Long Tian came to class. Their absence suggested either a conspiracy or a deliberate scheme.
Just as I was about to continue thinking, Liu Wen walked into the classroom with a smile.
It wasn't a forced smile, but genuine happiness. His kind gaze made Li Yiyi feel uncomfortable.
Liu Wen is smiling so happily, must it be because of some great joy?
"Cough cough"
"Students, please be quiet for a moment, I have something to say."
The classroom fell silent instantly. It wasn't the teacher's anger that was frightening; it was the sudden laughter of a teacher who was usually so serious.
"A while ago, three students from our class participated in a competition. Today, the results of the competition that everyone has been looking forward to are out. Our classmate from the Health Inspection Department won the first prize, and Li Yiyi won the third prize. Let's give them a round of applause."
The enthusiastic applause couldn't drown out a sudden voice—it was Ma Mei's.
"Teacher, what about mine?"
The applause vanished in an instant, and all eyes turned to Ma Mei. Keep in mind, the rumors had only been circulating for two days.
Whether Ma Mei's feelings were genuine or she was deceived, her jealousy of Li Yiyi was undeniable.
As things stand, seeing Li Yiyi win an award while she didn't, Ma Mei's deskmate stared wide-eyed, her eyes bulging like saucers. She silently distanced herself from Ma Mei.
She acted impulsively and was used as a pawn by Ma Mei. She wasn't stupid; after reflecting on it, she understood Ma Mei's intentions.
