Chapter 293: Three Treasures in One Birth: My Sweet Wife (40)
To be honest, the little girl's current appearance is very different from the impression he had of her.
How big was it? It was so big that it made him doubt whether the girl in front of him was the little princess of the Lu family whom he knew before?
What kind of person was the little princess before? She spoke bluntly, was never polite to him, and even acted coquettishly and naughtily.
But the girl in front of me spoke with a distant and polite tone, her words and actions were rational and steady, and even her words were very careful.
Yes, they haven't seen each other for a long time, almost ten years.
It is normal for a child to change as he grows into an adult.
But he always felt that these changes should still be in line with his childhood appearance, rather than the current... current...
He didn't mean that this was a bad thing, he was just wondering if the little girl became like this because of the demise of the Lu family.
When he thought that the Lu family was like this because of the Li family, and that the little girl was like this, he felt a little uncomfortable for a moment.
"Do you think I have changed a lot?" Shen Ci raised his eyes and looked at Li Jingyuan, as if he could see through his thoughts, and asked.
Li Jingyuan was stunned for a moment, then nodded: "Well, when you were a child...when you were a child..."
"Uncle Li, I think you should not mention your childhood because it will remind me of my family." Shen Ci interrupted him.
Li Jingyuan's words were stuck in his throat. He pinched his index finger with his thumb and blamed himself for being careless.
He has been wandering around for so many years, and has transformed from a troubled devil into the elegant and easy-going gentleman he is today. He must have seen all kinds of things in the world.
But now facing the little girl, he completely forgot about those things, leaving only nervousness and panic.
In the end... the guilt in my heart is too deep.
"I'm sorry." He apologized to Shen Ci.
Shen Ci shook his head: "No need, uncle didn't mean it, so, uncle, what do you want to drink?"
Li Jingyuan ordered a drink casually, Shen Ci nodded and pressed the dining bell next to the table.
Not long after I rang the dining bell, the waiter came over.
After ordering coffee, the waiter left again.
Only Shen Ci and Li Jingyuan were left in the box.
Shen Ci continued with the previous topic: "To be honest, I don't know how to face Uncle Li. I remember that when I was a child, Uncle Li was very good to me, but I also remember that my Lu family... was gone because of the Li family."
When he said the last sentence, Shen Ci's voice trembled.
Li Jingyuan once again blamed himself in his heart for being careless and making wild guesses.
No matter what kind of person you are, your personality will change drastically after experiencing these things.
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry..." Li Jingyuan wanted to say something, but after he opened his mouth, he could only apology one after another.
When he said it for the fifth time, Shen Ci interrupted him: "Uncle Li, what are you doing? I do want an apology from the Li family, but this matter has nothing to do with Uncle Li, right? The apology I want is only an apology from Li Cheng. Of course, in addition to an apology, I also want..."
"What do you want?" Li Jingyuan asked.
"I want him to admit that I have nothing and taste my pain." Shen Ci said this with a calm expression, but his words were fierce.
Li Jingyuan didn't think she was cruel, but rather thought it was very normal.
It would be abnormal if she didn't want to return all the pain to Li Cheng.
"It should be." Li Jingyuan nodded.
"Uncle Li, why don't you stop me?" Shen Ci couldn't help but ask when he saw him like this.
"for……"
"Knock, knock." Just as Li Jingyuan was about to speak, there was a knock on the private room door. It was the waiter.
The waiter opened the door with two cups of coffee: "Excuse me, sir and ma'am, your coffee."
The waiter placed the coffee in front of Shen Ci and Li Jingyuan.
"Thank you." Shen Ci thanked the waiter politely after he finished speaking.
The waiter smiled, said "it's what I should do", and left.
After the waiter left, Li Jingyuan continued to ask: "Why stop it?"
"Why else? If I want to become Li Cheng, I will have nothing, so naturally I have to deal with the Li family. So why don't you stop me?" Shen Ci picked up the coffee and blew it gently. After blowing for a while, he took a sip.
"I have no reason to stop you. The Li family and Li Cheng owe you this." Li Jingyuan said.
"Uncle Li is still the same as before..." Shen Ci sighed angrily, and then said jokingly, "The same, giving me the illusion that if I asked your uncle Li to help me get revenge, you would agree."
Li Jingyuan lowered his head and tapped the table with his fingers: "If I tell you, it's not an illusion."
"Huh?" Shen Ci looked at Li Jingyuan with surprise.
"I have known your mother since I was a child. When your mother was a child, you and she were very likable, but I loved to bully her because I wanted to be a special person. Unfortunately, I did not become a special person in the end. Those ideas of mine were too naive. I said this, Xiaoyu, to tell you that your mother is very, very important to me. I cannot tolerate anyone hurting her, including my family. So, I will help you, but not to help you, but to help myself." Li Jingyuan raised his eyes and looked at Shen Ci, and said very seriously.
From his words and attitude, Shen Ci completely confirmed his guess...
Li Jingyuan really liked his original mother.
"Do you like my mother?" Shen Ci asked directly.
Perhaps because he didn't expect her to ask this, Li Jingyuan was stunned for a moment. After a while, he came to his senses and smiled bitterly: "You found out, yes, I like your mother."
"Is Uncle Li married now?" Shen Ci asked again.
"No." Li Jingyuan shook his head.
"Because of my mother?"
"Not really, it's just that I've never found someone who can like and feel the same way about your mother. It's just a pity that you like her, but I like her, but she doesn't." Li Jingyuan smiled bitterly again.
"My mother is not stupid, so I think the root of the problem lies with you, Uncle Li," said Shen Ci.
"What do you mean?" Li Jingyuan didn't understand.
Shen Ci touched the edge of the coffee cup, as if lost in memory: "I remember when I was little, I discussed you with my mother. I said to her: Uncle Li is very handsome, but why doesn't he have a wife or a girlfriend? My mother said: Because your Uncle Li likes boys. Although my mother didn't take it seriously at the time, I think you must have done something to make her think this way."
These words were not made up by Shen Ci, but there is indeed such a memory in the original body.
Li Jingyuan was completely stunned when he heard this. He had thought of countless reasons why he and Lu Qian didn't get together, but he didn't expect that this was one of them...
