The next morning, Li Hongyun, Li Mu, and Li Yi sat on the sofa in the hall.
Li Yi glanced at his watch and frowned. Yes, that's right, it's been over an hour.
Li Hongyun also frowned and ordered the butler in a deep voice to go upstairs again to urge them.
The butler nodded and turned to go upstairs when he saw Mi Xi and Mi Lan already coming down.
Mi Xi knew that Li Hongyun had been waiting downstairs for a long time, so she stepped forward with a guilty look on her face and looked pitiful.
Dad, I'm sorry. It was my first time meeting Grandpa and Grandma, and I was afraid I would leave a bad impression on them.
Li Mu rolled her eyes, Li Yi's face grew even colder, and Li Hongyun simply grunted in response.
He said, "Let's go."
Yu Bi stood up and walked out the door first, followed by Li Mu and Li Yi.
The mother and daughter exchanged a glance and followed.
There were six cars outside the gate. The first one, a Bugatti Divo, was one of only 40 in the world, worth 38 million, and belonged to Li Yi.
The second car is a Bugatti Centodieci, one of only 10 produced worldwide, which is Li Mu's own beloved car.
They saw Li Mu and Li Yi each get into their own sports cars.
The driver opened the car door for Li Hongyun, and Li Hongyun got into the car immediately.
The mother and daughter were left behind and quickly got into another Rolls-Royce Phantom.
As they drove on the road, two Mercedes-Benz cars filled with bodyguards followed behind.
I'm not trying to show off, but as the second largest family in China, security is a very important matter.
After driving for more than an hour, we left the bustling area and drove up Mingyang Mountain. There was a cluster of villas halfway up the mountain.
The electronic door slowly opened after being scanned.
The six cars passed through the gate and continued forward, stopping at the main villa in about 5 minutes.
In the lobby of the villa, a group of people, some sitting and some standing, all looked toward the villa's main entrance.
Li Hongyun and his group walked in. When Li Hongyun saw Li Zhentian and Lü Shuping, he stopped and bowed slightly, calling them "Mom and Dad".
Li Mu and Li Yi also bowed and called out "Grandpa" and "Grandma".
Seeing that Li Mu and Li Yi were visibly happy, Li Zhentian and Lü Shuping stood up and quickly waved to them, signaling them to come to their side.
Li Mu and Li Yi exchanged a smile and went to help the two elderly people sit down, then sat down next to them themselves.
Li Hongyun was pleased to see the smiles on the two elders' faces. But the next second, when the two elders turned to look at him, their expressions instantly darkened.
Li Hongyun was speechless, but inwardly he was cursing the two elders for their quick change of attitude.
They were talking non-stop, asking if Mom had called to ask them to come over because she needed something.
Madam Li glanced at the two people behind her son and said, "Sit down and talk."
Li Hongyun nodded and strode towards the seat below his father.
Immediately, a group of people around looked curiously at the two people standing alone in the lobby.
Mi Lan looked embarrassed, while Mi Xi kept her head down, so her expression couldn't be seen. Li Zhentian also looked at the two of them and said, "Tell me what happened." This question was naturally directed at Li Hongyun.
Upon hearing this, Li Hongyun did not delay and quickly explained the matter in detail.
The gazes of many people in the lobby changed again, from curiosity to disdain.
Mi Lan was also very nervous in the face of these gazes, but she appeared calm on the surface.
The second wife smiled and said, "Brother, a man should also protect himself when he's out there." As soon as she finished speaking, the room fell silent.
Mi Lan blushed slightly, but quickly regained her composure.
To ease the awkwardness, the third wife cleared her throat and looked at Mi Xi, thinking, "My eldest brother is so lucky; he has gained another little darling."
A disdainful voice came from behind.
I said to Dad, if I gave you two cotton-padded coats, would you wear them?
Upon hearing this, Li Hongting turned to look at his daughter, rolled his eyes, and then turned his head away again. "Of course I need a cotton-padded coat," he said, "but one bulletproof vest is enough."
Hearing the first half of the sentence, Li Yue didn't think much of it, but after hearing the second half, she rolled her eyes.
Li Yue shook her father's shoulder angrily, and laughter erupted in the hall.
After laughing for a while, the laughter gradually subsided.
After a long while, Old Master Li looked up at Mi Xi and then at Mi Lan. Although reluctant, he still spoke.
Now that it has already happened, and your daughter is all grown up, that's enough.
Then let's give this woman a proper status.
That way, this woman can legitimately move into your house.
Your youngest daughter doesn't need to be labeled as an illegitimate child.
Xiao Mu and Yi'er lost their mother when they were young.
Your youngest daughter has also lost 16 years of fatherly love, so let's give her a complete family.
Then, looking at Mi Lan, I said, "Let me be clear from the start: I'm just giving your daughter a legitimate identity."
Little Mu Yi'er doesn't need your concern. If my two darlings have any grievances, they'll reach my ears.
We, the two of us, will not agree to this.
Upon hearing this, Mi Lan readily agreed, thinking to herself that she didn't want to take care of these two wild children.
Madam Li waved to Mi Xi, and Mi Xi obediently stepped forward and greeted her grandpa and grandma, bowing in a similar manner.
The two elders were somewhat satisfied with Mi Xi's obedient demeanor.
The old man got up, took his wife's hand, and said, "It's time to rest."
Then they went upstairs.
Old Master Li was still grumbling to himself, "He's such a troublemaker, taking up the time my wife and I would spend watering the flowers."
Fortunately, Li Hongyun didn't know, otherwise he would have been extremely upset.
Li Hongyun then introduced this group of relatives.
Looking at them, he said, "Your second uncle and your second aunt are standing behind your cousin, Li Rui."
Hello, Uncle Mi Xi, Aunt Mi Xi, and Cousin Rui.
Then, pointing to Li Hongting's family, he said, "This is your third uncle and aunt, and also Li Yue and Li Han, who are a year younger than you."
Hello, Uncle Mi Xi, Aunt Mi Xi, cousins Mi Xi, and all your cousins.
Then he looked to the other side.
These are your second grandfather and your cousin.
Hello, second grandfather and cousin.
Everyone nodded.
Li Yue and Li Han pursed their lips and glanced sideways at their cheap cousin.
The matter was resolved with the old man's final decision, and everyone returned home the way they came. After dinner, they went to their rooms to rest.
