It wasn't until after Jing Liyue's death, when Li Yaoming quickly brought home his mistress and illegitimate child, that the Jing family realized he had long since betrayed Jing Liyue. But the dead cannot be resurrected, so all they could do was take care of Li Xi and teach the Li family a lesson.
But after his daughter died, Mr. Jing and his wife became much more depressed. They managed to put many obstacles in the way of the Li family, but they were unable to shake the foundation of the Li family.
It was Jing Limo who, upon learning the truth, rushed into the Li family home and beat up Li Yaoming. However, the scene was too chaotic, and he was beaten up instead of being beaten up. Not only did he bleed all over his face, but he also frightened the young Li Xi.
In addition, after Jian Ruolan came into the family, she often instigated trouble in front of Li Xi, and little Li Xi's impression of the Jing family became worse and worse. When the Jing family wanted to take her back to the Jing family because they were worried that her stepmother would bully her, she decisively refused and acted very scared.
On the Li family side, Grandpa Li was reluctant to part with his granddaughter, and Li Yaoming wanted to use Li Xi to negotiate with the Jing family, but they were also unwilling to let go. In the end, not only did the Jing family fail to take Li Xi, but they also stopped controlling the Li family.
Afterwards, because of Li Xi's fear and rejection, he rarely appeared in front of Li Xi. Then, a few years later, Mr. Jing and his wife passed away one after another, leaving only an adopted son who had just reached adulthood.
Although the old couple left a will, leaving the estate to Jing Limo, money always moved people, and even with the help of his elders, Jing Limo's process of taking over the family business was difficult. In addition, he had to go to school abroad, so Jing Limo sold some of his domestic properties and shifted his focus abroad.
Perhaps because his impulsiveness frightened Li Xi, preventing the old couple from taking her back, and because he hated himself for not noticing her sister's abnormality in time, Jing Limo always felt guilty and dared not see Li Xi. For so many years, he just silently paid attention to Li Xi and never appeared in front of her.
Li Xi knew about this thanks to Mian Lao Si. The person Jing Limo sent to keep an eye on Li Xi could barely be considered a colleague of Mian Lao Si. Mian Lao Si had discovered this when he was investigating Li Xi, but since the other party hadn't done anything out of the ordinary, he had never met him.
He did tell Li Xi about it, but when Li Xi heard that they were people sent by the original owner's uncle, and thought of what he had done for Li Xi in the original book, she thought that they were just relatives who cared about the original owner, so she ignored them.
Mian Lao Si did monitor their contact with Jing Limo, but it was just some daily reports about Li Xi, so he didn't interfere.
After a long time, Li Xi almost forgot about this person, so seeing him in the Imperial Garden was quite unexpected. However, she was only stunned for a moment, and the man she was staring at stiffened his back the moment he saw Li Xi's figure.
He was nervous. This was Li Xi's first thought.
"Uncle." Li Xi stood at the corner of the stairs and called softly. The voice was not loud but loud enough for people downstairs to hear.
When Jing Limo heard the word "uncle", his body trembled slightly and the corners of his eyes turned red instantly.
He was sad, this was Li Xi's second thought.
Li Xi walked down the stairs, and only heard Jing Limo's voice when she reached the end of the stairs.
"Do you still remember me?" The voice was so soft, so soft that Li Xi thought she was hallucinating.
"To be honest, I don't really remember."
"Then, how did you recognize him?" As Li Xi got closer, Jing Limo's voice became louder. Li Xi could hear it clearly and also noticed that his voice was trembling a little.
"You have been following me, so you should know that I invested in a detective agency. They are still very sensitive to their peers." Li Xi's tone was calm, and it was impossible to tell what she thought about the matter.
Luo Jingxuan, who was somewhat familiar with her, would have probably sensed that Li Xi was not opposed to this, or rather, accepted it well. However, Jing Limo, who was unfamiliar with her, felt particularly guilty when she pointed out that he had sent someone to monitor her.
"I, I just want to know if you are doing well."
He's really nervous. This was Li Xi's third thought.
"I know." Li Xi paused and said it again in a very serious tone, "I know, uncle."
After Li Xi finished speaking, Jing Limo's eyes turned red.
He seemed like he was about to cry. This was Li Xi's fourth thought.
