Chapter 81 Linuo Knows

Li Yuzhi looked at Li Yan in front of him. He was really different. Before, he was always at a disadvantage in front of him, but now he looked at him indifferently.

"Ha, what's that look in your eyes? Have you forgotten that I raised you?"

Here we go again, the same words.

Li Yan had a complicated look on his face. Whenever he wanted to resist, Li Yuzhi would say this, as if it was some kind of magic weapon.

If it were my old self, I would probably just let him do whatever he wanted, but things are different now.

"Since you left all the debts to me, I feel that I have repaid the debt of gratitude for your upbringing."

Li Yuzhi was immediately furious. "What are you talking about! I didn't send you to an orphanage, but brought you to my home. And what did you do? You caught a cold and passed it on to Xiaonuo, making him sick. From that moment on, our family was torn apart."

"......"

"Xiao Nuo's mother ran away because she thought we had no money. If it weren't for you, how could Xiao Nuo have been so seriously ill?"

Li Nuo was born with a bad heart, but the pneumonia he suffered did indeed cause the disease to develop earlier, causing him to suffer a lot.

Li Yuzhi likes to mention this the most, which arouses Li Yan's sense of guilt.

Not only that, Li Yuzhi continued: "Do you know how much effort I put in to adopt you, changing your date of birth and so on? And you still..."

Li Yan interrupted him directly, "I didn't have a household registration at that time, so it wasn't difficult to change my date of birth."

No matter in the past or before, Li Yuzhi always wanted to take away his freedom.

Use guilt and shame to control his life.

"Besides, our family is in this state because of your addiction to gambling."

"I did that to raise money for medical expenses!"

"Ha——" Li Yan sighed helplessly. He was still so shameless and used this excuse every time. It was obviously him who pushed the debt and the sick Li Nuo over to him.

They didn't even give him a place to stay and their house had been sold. God knows how desperate Li Yan, who had just graduated from high school at the time, was.

"Huh..." Li Yan calmed down for a moment, "That's it, just let me and my brother go."

"What! What nonsense are you talking about? Blood ties are not so easy to break. I won't mention you for now. If you don't tell me where Li Nuo is, I will call the police."

“.......”

"Really? Did you tell him something? It turns out that Li Nuo is not that kind of kid. He just hung up on me and didn't even give me the money."

When he learned from Zhang Wanhui that Li Nuo had lost his memory, he was really shocked, but he didn't believe it. However, after making a phone call, he really believed that his son was mentally ill.

His words gave Li Yan some confidence.

"I won't tell you, call the police."

He estimated that Li Yuzhi would be detained by Mo Chuan's men before he even got to the police station. Don't think he doesn't know that the controlling bastard is probably also monitoring this place.

"I repeat, your kindness was repaid when you left the debt to me. Even if you go to court now, it will be the same. You are not yet old enough to be adopted. Even if you are, I will only pay the minimum pension. Well, for my brother and I."

Li Yuzhi stood up from the sofa, walked a few steps to Li Yan, and raised his fist.

"Is physical violence the next step after verbal violence? Unfortunately, I have grown up."

Li Yan was quite skilled and he dodged his fist easily, then suppressed it with his backhand. He didn't hit him too hard.

After a few rounds, Li Yuzhi realized that he was completely unable to do anything to Li Yan, so he stopped panting and continued to attack with words.

"Speaking of which, Xiao Nuo, you may not know that I helped you register your household registration."

“........”

"He has lost his memory now, and he still treats you like a brother, that's why he's so nice to you. What would he think if he knew that you and he have no blood relationship?"

His words were the devil's whispers, lingering in Li Yan's ears.

"If you don't want me to tell him, let Linuo contact me. I'll give you two days."

After Li Yuzhi finished speaking, he straightened his clothes and walked out.

Only Li Yan was left, as if he was nailed to the spot, unable to move.

...........

"elder brother!"

Just after Linuo finished lunch, he heard a familiar voice.

"Li Yan!"

He ran over with a smile on his face, "I've been looking forward to your coming."

"Don't run after you've just finished a meal." Li Yan hugged his brother, then held Li Nuo's shoulders and looked around, "Are you doing well here? You seem to have lost weight."

"Don't talk nonsense, I've gained three pounds." Li Nuo said with an expression that said you deserve the meal I ate. "By the way, how long can you stay here?"

"I can stay here with you for a few days," Li Yan said apologetically. "I'm sorry, there are still a lot of things to do. Secretary Yang will be exhausted if he does it all by himself."

"I don't mind. This is for the sake of a stable life in the future. It's just hard work for you," Li Nuo looked at his brother's face, which he hadn't seen for a long time, with a distressed look on his face. "You seem to be much more haggard."

Li Yan smiled and said, "Because I've been working overtime recently."

"You must be tired after sitting in the car for such a long time. You must not have had lunch yet," Li Nuo pulled his brother into the house. "Auntie Zheng, do you have any more food?"

"Yes, I prepared one specially."

"That's it. You eat first, and then have a good sleep. There's no rush for us to reminisce." Li Nuo said with a smile, holding his chin.

Li Yan nodded. Although he was very uneasy about Li Yuzhi's words, his anxiety was somewhat dissipated when he saw Li Nuo's smile.

"When you've rested, I'll take you to the greenhouse. I like it there and I stay there for a while every day."

"Well, what else do you usually do?"

"Read a book, play some games. It's getting colder lately, so I rarely go out. There's a good movie I recommend to you."

"OK......."

As the two of them talked, Li Yan slowly finished his lunch.

Li Yan's room had already been tidied up, and Li Nuo rushed him to take a nap.

Although he had a lot on his mind, his physical fatigue overwhelmed it all and he still slept for quite a long time.

When I woke up, I saw my brother sitting by the window of my room with a book in his hands. It was still dark outside.

Hearing the noise on the bed, Li Nuo turned around and saw that he had woken up. She smiled and said, "It's a good thing you woke up before dinner."

"Well," Li Yan put on his clothes, "I slept a little too long this time. What if I can't sleep tonight?"

Li Nuo closed the book and said with a smile, "Then chat with me."

"That's impossible. I'll wash my face first and go have dinner."

"Well, Aunt Zhou said she'd make a big meal tonight, and you've got it ready."

Li Yan's arrival did make Li Nuo less bored. The two of them talked and laughed every day. Without having to work, Li Yan's complexion looked much better.

On such a quiet day, Li Yan was taking a nap while Li Nuo was sitting by the window playing games.

“Crack!”

There was a rumble of thunder in the distance.

Li Nuo checked the window and said, "It's not summer yet, why is there thunder in winter?"

Soon after the thunder, heavy rain came.

The sky was filled with dark clouds, with flashes of lightning, and the electric lights flashed for a moment.

Li Nuo turned around to look at Li Yan, but he was not woken up and was still sleeping.

"You look really tired."

Li Nuo muttered quietly. He was not sleepy yet. He took a blanket and wrapped it around himself. "If there is a power outage and no heating, I must not catch a cold."

"Boom——"

There was a loud noise in the sky, and the lights flashed a few times before going out, plunging the entire villa into darkness.

Li Nuo was a little stunned. When he was about to wake up Li Yan, the mobile phone that had been in his pocket suddenly emitted a faint light.

During this time, they were supposed to find a place with signal, but after Li Yan came here, he was delayed and had to keep his phone with him all the time.

Now, due to the lightning and heavy rain, the shielding device has lost its effect and the signal has appeared instead.

He took out his cell phone, unlocked it, muted it, and looked at his inbox.

The people I contacted frequently knew I was here, so my cell phone was useless and there was no contact.

Instead, there were many messages and missed calls from Zhang Wanhui and an unfamiliar number. He guessed that the number should be Li Yuzhi's new number.

He saw the latest message from Zhang Wanhui and asked in confusion: "Huh?"

Zhang Wanhui: [You and Li Yan are not brothers at all, you were deceived by him! ]

'What does this mean?'

Li Nuo was shocked for a moment. When he heard footsteps on the stairs, he hurriedly hid his phone.

Aunt Zheng was knocking on the door. Li Nuo opened the door and said that he was fine, just frightened.

Aunt Zheng said that electricity would be restored soon and asked everyone to wait for a moment, and then she took everyone to the power supply room, which happened to be in the backyard.

Li Nuo glanced at Li Yan who was still sleeping, went downstairs with his cell phone, and walked to an inconspicuous place in the living room.

He turned down the brightness of his phone, since it was still clear enough to see in the dim environment.

I carefully read the text messages sent by Zhang Wanhui again. The previous ones were all asking questions like "Where are you?", but he has been talking about this matter for some time. If it was just him, then it would not be a big deal, but Li Yuzhi actually said the same thing.

Li Nuo's hands holding the phone were shaking, "Ha——" he let out the shaky breath in his heart.

He wanted to confirm this information with Li Yan right now, but he couldn't because he had to be fully prepared before asking Li Yan, so he went to confirm it with others first.

He walked out of the living room. Due to the heavy rain and power outage, the front yard was empty. He dialed Zhang Wanhui's number and the call was connected shortly after it rang.

"Li Nuo, where are you?"

"......I saw the message you sent."

"You finally saw it? Where are you? I'm here to pick you up."

"Are you telling the truth? Who told you this?"

The voice on the other end was very urgent, "Your father told me in person. He also sent you a message. You saw it, right? You and Li Yan are completely unrelated. He pretends to be nice to you. He must want to use you!"

Linuo remained silent.

"The two people around you before were both directors of his company, right? They were very nice to you. Li Yan must have wanted to use you to gain profits from them."

Li Nuo laughed, "It's not like that." Those two people had been very mean to the original owner.

Zhang Wanhui was still saying on the other end of the phone: "Forget it, you'll know when we meet. Tell me where you are and we'll pick you up."

"we?"

"Your father is here too. He's been looking for you and is very worried."

Speaking of Li Yuzhi, Li Nuo's mind became clearer. "I still say the same thing. You are wrong. If Li Yan wanted to use me, he would not have taken care of me until now. I am a patient."

"Because he can get more!"

Li Nuo had the urge to hang up the phone, but he resisted the urge and continued to ask, "Did Li Yan know about this a long time ago?"

"Yes, your father told him a long time ago. He lied to you for so long and now he is hiding you."

Li Nuo had a headache, and then another question came up: Does the original owner know?

Or did the original owner know that Li Yan knew that they were not real brothers?

The answer is yes, the original owner knew it, that's why he treated Li Yan like that. They had a very good relationship when they were children, so he didn't say anything even when he was sick.

And it seems that he knew it a long time ago.

Although I don’t know how he discovered it, judging from the results, the original owner knew it.

He desperately needed to be alone to think.

"My signal is not very good here, I'm hanging up now."

"Hey wait, tell me where you are first, I'll pick you up."

Ignoring the shouting on the other end, Linuo hung up the phone.

He turned around slowly and saw Li Yan standing not far away with a stiff face.
