Chapter 474: Time Reveals a Person's True Character
Nie Yao also looked at Li Jinxing in surprise. She didn't expect him to still bring up this matter, even though she didn't take it seriously at all...
She was about to say something when Li Yaofeng's sharp gaze shot towards her and he asked thoughtfully, "Ms. Nie, do you feel wronged?"
"Brother..." Li Jinxing frowned slightly. She never expected that her brother would question Nie Yao like this in front of her. How should she answer?
Facing the probing and scrutinizing gaze of her elder brother Li Yao, Nie Yao smiled generously, shook her head, and replied seriously, "I'm not wronged..."
"Yaoyao..." Li Jinxing was about to speak for her when Nie Yao gave him a soothing smile and continued to say to Li Yaofeng, "As the saying goes, a journey tests a horse's strength, and time reveals a person's true character. This is the first time Mr. Li and I have met. You don't understand me and have some misunderstandings about me. This is human nature!"
Seeing that she answered very readily, Li Yaofeng changed his opinion of her. The look in his eyes when he looked at her was less hostile and more surprising.
Noticing the change in Li Yaofeng's gaze, Nie Yao smiled faintly and continued, "Regarding this heirloom. Although I'm not wronged, I think Li Jinxing is wronged!"
Li Yaofeng frowned and sneered unhappily, "He feels wronged? What is there to feel wronged about? If it weren't for me, he would have already given away our Li family's heirloom. How would we face our ancestors in the future?"
"Mr. Li, you only saw the surface, but didn't think carefully about why he did this!"
Nie Yao sighed and said slowly, "He's also a member of the Li family, the ninth generation heir. Could it be that he's willing to donate the heirloom? In fact, he's doing this not just for himself, but also for you, Mr. Li!"
"For me? I don't need him to do this!" Li Yaofeng snorted coldly and said bluntly.
"Yaoyao, stop talking. He won't listen to your explanation. He is just an old stubborn person with a paranoid personality!" Li Jinxing pulled Nie Yao's hand and said dissatisfiedly.
"Li Jinxing, don't forget, I, this old stubborn man, am your elder brother. My parents have passed away. Others can't control you, but I can. This will never change!" Li Yaofeng raised his voice and reminded him in a deep voice, word by word.
"Or you can take back the identity of the Li family heir from me, and then talk about controlling me?" Li Jinxing raised his eyebrows and sneered.
"Don't think I don't dare to do this!" Li Yaofeng slapped the armrest of the wheelchair hard, with a cold light in his eyes.
"Then you try it--" Li Jinxing lowered his head and met his elder brother's eyes. Both of their eyes were filled with cold anger, which made Nie Yao and the butler Owen next to them feel that the temperature had dropped several degrees.
Nie Yao had originally wanted to persuade the brothers to reconcile, but they started arguing again. She quickly made a truce gesture and said helplessly, "Alright, can you guys stop and listen to me?"
After she said this, she squeezed Li Jinxing's palm, and Li Jinxing withdrew his gaze from his brother.
Li Yaofeng didn't say anything else, just snorted coldly as a response.
Nie Yao finally breathed a sigh of relief and continued slowly, "Mr. Li, Li Jinxing has already told me all about the family changes he encountered in his childhood. I know it hasn't been easy for you two brothers. You've been dependent on each other since childhood. He has always been grateful and loved you because you are his only family!"
