Li Jingshan was about to hang up when a voice suddenly came from the other end of the phone. It was in English, which Li Jingshan couldn't understand, but Yu Anning and Qi Wenyuan understood it and their expressions changed drastically.
What the man said was—
"Sweetheart, what are you doing? Don't waste your time!"
Yu Anning could no longer tolerate it. She snatched Li Jingshan's phone and shouted angrily, "Li Qiqi, what are you doing? Why is there a man in the dormitory? Why does this man call you sweetheart? Do you know what you're doing? You're only seventeen!"
Li Qiqi was startled, but quickly became angry and shouted, "What right do you have to tell me what to do? You don't even want to acknowledge me anymore, so what business is it of yours? I'm seventeen years old, and I have the freedom to make friends. It's none of your business!"
“As long as you’re still my daughter, I have the right to take care of you. I give you 10,000 yuan a month for living expenses. You’re saying I don’t have that right? Li Qiqi, first explain to me why there’s a man in the school dormitory? What’s your relationship with this man?”
Li Jingshan and his mother were shocked. They had also heard the man's voice on the phone. It was definitely not normal for a man to be with their granddaughter in the middle of the night.
Moreover, the man called his granddaughter "sweetheart," a term only used between lovers. The nature of their relationship was obvious, yet they still clung to the hope that Li Qiqi would deny it.
"Qiqi, tell me quickly, who is this man? Is he your classmate?" Li's mother asked anxiously.
"She's a classmate who lives on the second floor. We often visit each other. Not only does she call me 'sweetheart,' but everyone else does too. Things are different here than in China; the atmosphere is more open. Don't make a fuss about it."
Li Qiqi gave a vague explanation, which her mother believed and breathed a sigh of relief.
Yu Anning sneered, "Li Qiqi, do you take me for a fool? No matter how open-minded the M country is, it's impossible for boys and girls to live together. You're attending a regular middle school, not some shady school. You're telling me about mixed-gender dorms? And you're the kind of guy who calls everyone 'sweetheart'? Do you want me to fly over there right now and confront your principal about why he arranged a mixed-gender dormitory for my daughter?"
"Are you crazy? So what if I live in a mixed-gender apartment? Don't think that just because you gave me ten thousand yuan, you can tell me what to do with my life. I don't want that ten thousand yuan anymore, take it or leave it!"
Li Qiqi's roar made the phone vibrate uncontrollably. Li's mother and Li Jingshan were even more shocked. They had never seen their granddaughter so angry, acting like a madwoman. Even if they didn't like Yu Anning, Li Qiqi's attitude towards her mother was really inappropriate.
They were also surprised that Yu Anning gave Li Qiqi 10,000 yuan a month for living expenses, but Li Qiqi never mentioned it. Every time she called, she said that she didn't have enough money. Li's mother always secretly transferred money to her granddaughter.
Li Wensong gives Li Qiqi 6,000 yuan a month for living expenses, plus 10,000 yuan from Yu Anning, plus money secretly given by Li's mother, which adds up to nearly 20,000 yuan a month. That would be enough to live on even in the United States. What has Li Qiqi been doing for the past two months?
"Li Qiqi, are you feeling guilty? You didn't study properly over there at all. You made a bunch of bad friends, fooled around outside every night, and even did drugs with your friends. Li Qiqi, you're just degrading yourself, do you know that?" Yu Anning said sternly.
"You had someone investigate me? Yu Anning, you fucking pervert! This is an invasion of my privacy! I can sue you!" Li Qiqi was furious and completely exploded.
