【Chichi! Li Wuchi?】
"Dad, it seems Li Daqiang is the brother you were talking about, and his son is the third ingrate."
Well, we almost got fooled.
Li Laoda tried to calm Li Yiyi's agitated expression, assuring her that as long as there was still time, it wouldn't affect them.
Li Daqiang keeping this from him means that their brotherhood is all fake, and it's better to do without it.
Since they're not brothers, his son is none of his business. What a heartless ingrate, get lost!
"Uncle Li, you're back."
When the other little boy spoke, Li Yiyi's brain completely shut down.
[Dad, how did ingrate number one end up at ingrate number three's house?]
[The male lead and the second male supporting character have developed a brotherly relationship? Aren't they rivals for his affections?]
Has Zhou Wenzhu lost her mind?
No wonder it was so quiet during the Lunar New Year period; Zhou Wenzhu didn't even come to visit.
Li Laoda also wanted to know about this: how did Zhou Wenzhu end up at Li Daqiang's house? Did Li Daqiang know Zhou Wenzhu's identity?
"Um."
Li Daqiang said coldly, "If Li Wuchi hadn't needed a playmate, and Zhou Wenzhu hadn't happened to collapse at his doorstep, he wouldn't have adopted Zhou Wenzhu."
The embarrassment and humiliation vanished in an instant. Zhou Wenzhu remained seated as if nothing had happened, watching Li Wuchi and his family of three enjoying their sweet and loving moment.
"Dad, do you see? It's not right to help people indiscriminately."
Look at Zhou Wenzhu. He seems to be doing quite well lately; the Li Daqiang family treats him well. But there's a venomous needle hidden in his eyes!
[Dad, promise me you won't raise other people's children, and you won't pick up kids from the street.]
Li Laoda: Dad, I promise you, little ancestor, stop nagging.
"Honey, didn't that Brother Li you mentioned send over the meat?"
"No, business has been good lately. If they delivered this once, I could make a fortune. It's a pity I haven't seen them."
Li Daqiang really regrets it. During the Spring Festival, meat prices skyrocketed and supply couldn't meet demand, so he made a fortune. If Li Laoda had sent some more, he would have made even more.
There were other collaborators, but none of them had Li's abilities.
"Brother Li is really something, he made us lose a lot of money."
The woman grumbled discontentedly, but Li Daqiang didn't stop her; he shared the same sentiment.
"Boss, what's Brother Li's real name? Where is he from? If you know, go directly to his place and find him."
Li Daqiang chuckled.
“I’ve already investigated all of this. His original name was Li Aiguo. He was the eldest son in his family. He was married for five or six years before he had a sickly daughter. He wasn’t as fortunate as us.”
"As for going to his house, I can't go. In our line of work, there's an unspoken rule not to inquire. I've already broken that rule. Li Aiguo is a promising man, and I don't want to fall out with him. Besides, who knows if we'll get into trouble in this remote and dangerous place? It's a bit of a pity, but I'll just let it go."
Li Daqiang spoke casually, but Zhou Wenzhu's eyes flashed with shock, a strange light appearing in them.
"Honey, you just need to know what's going on."
The woman said coquettishly, "The whole family is having a happy meal."
[Dad, your past has been exposed, and you didn't even know it. You're so pathetic!]
Now I finally understand why Li Wuchi and his mother were able to be located so accurately after Li Daqiang's incident.
Those who don't know the situation might think they've been searching for ages, but the truth is they knew all along and were keeping it from you!
Li Yiyi revealed the painful truth, and Boss Li said he was not happy at all.
【well】
[Dad, do you think Zhou Wenzhu will do something if she knows about your relationship with Li Daqiang?]
[Dad, why are you in such a miserable state? Is this how villains are supposed to be?]
Li Laoda had no idea what Zhou Wenzhu was capable of.
He had already taken his heartbroken daughter to the hospital. Her last checkup showed she was healthy, but for a long-term reason, Boss Li had Li Yiyi falsify the results.
"Daughter, could you ask the doctor to check if she has a congenital deficiency and needs careful nourishment?"
"Father, it's nothing."
Upon entering the hospital, while the doctor was taking her pulse, Li Yi used her spiritual energy to seal her meridians, feigning weakness.
[Dad, aren't I amazing!]
Even at this moment, Li Yiyi couldn't resist being playful. Older Li held Li Yiyi's little hand, looking at the doctor with concern.
"Doctor, is my daughter alright?!"
"Your daughter is fine, just a little weak. She has congenital deficiencies and needs to be properly nourished. Since she's young, I can prescribe some medicine for her. You can pick it up once a month."
"Thank you, doctor. I'm so glad my daughter is alright."
Li Laoda was extremely grateful and genuinely happy. A pitiful smile appeared on Li Yiyi's pale face.
"Thank you, Uncle."
The doctor responded that he deliberately added more nourishing herbs when prescribing the medication; they tailor their prescriptions to the individual patient.
The family dotes on the boy and prescribes only the best medicine.
The girl realized that it wasn't that they were irresponsible, but rather that reality was harsh; in these difficult times, few people would be willing to go bankrupt to pay for her medical treatment. Medicine was expensive, alas...
Boss Li is sincere, and Li Yiyi is lovable, so the prescriptions he gives are naturally different.
With the prescription in hand, Li Laoda went to the pharmacy to get the medicine. It cost twenty-three yuan and fifty cents, just enough for a month.
"Come on, honey, let's go home."
On their way back, Li Yiyi and the others ran into Aunt Hua and her group. Seeing that Li Laoda was carrying medicine, they asked him about it out of curiosity.
"Boss, you have money to get medicine for your daughter."
Old Li smiled shyly.
