Chapter 103 Watching the Fun
Wenxi opened the door curiously.
In the yard of the Li family's old house, Li Shuyu chased Li Zhiche with a feather duster and beat him.
"Stop right there, you little brat!"
Li Zhiche ran to Wenxi as if he had seen a life-saving straw.
Hide behind Wenxi.
"Xiaoxi, please save me!"
Li Shuyu wanted to catch him from the left, but he went to the right, went around to the right, and then went to the left again.
It's like playing a game of cat and mouse.
Li Shuyu was so tired that he was out of breath.
The commotion here alarmed everyone, and everyone came to watch the fun.
Li Shuyu couldn't do anything more and looked angrily at her son who was hiding behind her niece.
"Second uncle, what did Zhiche do wrong?"
Before Li Shuyu could answer, Li Zhiche answered first: "My dad won't let me go back to China! He won't let me be a star!"
Wenxi looked at Li Shuyu in confusion.
"Second uncle, is that true?"
Li Shuyu glared at his son.
"Xiaoxi, our Li family is huge and powerful. This brat doesn't want to help his eldest brother manage the group, but instead goes off to be a celebrity and even argues with me. I'm going to give him a beating today!"
"If you don't kill me today, I'll still go!"
Li Shuyu was so angry that his heart ached.
"You unfilial son! How could I have given birth to something like you!"
Seeing that the situation was about to get out of control again, Wenxi advised: "Second Uncle, Zhiche is not interested in managing the group. If he likes to be a star, then let him be. Even if you force him to come back, he won't be able to do it well."
"Xiaoxi, you don't understand. A family like ours wouldn't allow him to show his face outside. What the hell!"
Li Zhiche was most unwilling to listen to this, as he was just prejudiced against celebrities.
"Dad, I use a stage name outside, and others don't know I'm from the Li family."
"Do you think that because you use a stage name, people won't know you're my son? A few days ago, your Uncle Zhao said he thought he saw you on TV, and I lied to him and said he was mistaken. My son is home fine."
Li Zhiche said nonchalantly, "Dad, don't use other excuses. You just feel guilty and ashamed of your uncle. Now, you want to use me to make up for it."
Li Shuyu looked a little embarrassed when his son exposed his secret.
Indeed, he insisted on practicing medicine and left the huge group to his eldest brother alone.
During that time, my sister went missing and the whole family was shrouded in a haze.
He just went to the hospital and has a lot of things to do.
The eldest brother had to manage the group alone, find his sister, and take care of his sick father and mother.
He was as stubborn as Li Zhiche back then. He had no interest in managing the company and devoted himself to his medical skills.
Yes, he became a very good doctor, and even people in country B respectfully called him "Li Shengshou".
He was a skilled doctor with unfailing success, and even the president came to him in person to see patients.
But as I grew older, especially watching my mother pass away and my father gradually grow old, and my eldest brother working hard to manage the group and the family, my sister had not been found for more than 20 years.
Only then did he realize how selfish he was!
Everyone has dreams, but only when someone carries the burden for you can you pursue your dreams with peace of mind.
He did feel guilty towards his elder brother and wanted Zhiche to help Zhixing share some of the burden.
Li Shuwang walked up to him at some point and patted his shoulder.
"Shuyu, let the past be the past. Don't dwell on it. Although those years were hard, I endured them wholeheartedly. It is my honor to protect the group and this family."
“Brother…”
Li Shuyu was choked with sobs and couldn't speak.
"Well, let the young man do what he wants. He's just as stubborn as you were when you were young. Even ten bulls can't pull him back."
"But the trip..."
"Uncle, don't worry about the group's affairs. I can handle it. Besides, I have something else to say."
Li Zhiyan looked up at him and said nothing.
Wenxi sighed that wealthy families also have their own troubles.
Not everyone is interested in the family business, and managing such a large group is not an easy task.
She couldn't help but admire her elder brother and Mu Yansen.
Li Shuyu still disagrees with Li Zhiche becoming a star. In his eyes, being a star is not a proper job.
Wenxi was helpless and didn't know where to start to persuade him.
My second uncle’s thoughts are not so easy to overturn.
At this time, Li Wanchuan came over with a cane.
"Dad, did I disturb you?"
Li Shuyu looked guilty.
"Second brother, why are you like an antique? It's a different era now, and you're still so conservative. No wonder your wife dislikes you."
When talking about his wife, Li Shuyu's eyes were full of helplessness.
"Dad, you also know about Zhiche!"
"I've known this for a long time, Second Brother. Even an old man like me can accept it, so why can't you accept it? If Zhiche wants to be a star, let him be. I'd really like to see my grandson on TV."
After getting his grandfather's approval, Li Zhiche excitedly ran out from behind Wenxi and hugged Li Wanchuan.
"Grandpa, I love you so much!"
Li Wanchuan almost lost his balance and staggered when he was hugged by him.
Li Shuyu hit him with a feather duster.
"You irresponsible brat!"
Li Zhiche was hit by his father, but he didn't care and held the old man tightly.
Li Shuwang glanced at his youngest son.
"Zhiyan, it's time for you to calm down and return to the group to help your big brother!"
Li Zhiyan raised his eyelids slightly, not knowing whether he heard it or not.
Li Shuwang shook his head. This youngest son was what worried him the most.
It seems like he has no interest in anything and is idle all day long.
When asked to go to the company to help his elder brother, he would work for three days and rest for two days, and he was often not found.
He didn't know what was going on in his mind.
After this farce, everyone went back to their rooms to rest.
Wenxi lay on the bed where her mother once lay, and took a deep breath of the scent on the pillow.
My mother has been gone for many years, and there is no trace of her scent.
But Wenxi refused to give up, always feeling that her mother had just left her.
Wenxi slept soundly that night.
She had a dream in which her mother hugged her and called "Xiaoxi" over and over again, very gently.
She felt like she was floating on the clouds, so light.
She thought this must be the feeling of being in her mother's arms. She was finally a child who had been held by her mother, and she was happy.
The next day, Wenxi got up early, tidied up and went for a walk in the yard.
The temperature in country B in September is neither too hot nor too cold, very comfortable.
After strolling for a while, I saw two fashionably dressed women walking in with suitcases.
Wenxi didn't know them. They might be relatives of the Li family, but it was too early for them to come.
The owner hasn't gotten up yet.
Wenxi approached.
"Aunties, who are you looking for? No one is awake yet."
The two women stared at Wenxi.
Suddenly he said in surprise: "You are Xiaoxi!"
Wenxi wondered if all her relatives knew about her existence.
"Well, I am, you are?"
The two women held Wenxi affectionately, one on each side.
"I'm your aunt."
"I'm your second aunt."
“…”
Wenxi then remembered that he didn't seem to have seen his two aunts yesterday.
Greet them obediently, "Hello, auntie, hello, second auntie."
