Chapter Thirty-Four
"Miss, don't worry, Master will definitely handle it properly." Seeing Li Zhiwei's trembling hands, Cuiguo quickly stepped forward to comfort her.
"I'm fine." Li Zhiwei knew that her father would never push her into the fire pit of the Marquis of Ruan's mansion again.
However, to Li Zhiwei's surprise, where did Lin Qihua and his son get the audacity to ask her father for forgiveness?
She simply didn't believe there was no ulterior motive behind it.
Thinking back to his previous life, the Lin family lived a prosperous life thanks to the Li family's wealth.
This explains the appearance of Lin Qihua and his son this time.
“Lord Lin, I am but a merchant and cannot accept the young master’s kneeling.” Li Tianyou said that he was just a merchant, but he was sitting at the head of the table and had to accept Lin Jitong’s kneeling.
They arrogantly believed that because they held a higher official rank, they could bully his daughter.
Li Tianyou may not be very capable, but even if it means going bankrupt, he will protect his daughter.
Li Tianyou would not be able to let this go without feeling resentful.
Thinking that her daughter was donating all her dowry, wasn't it all to prevent the Marquis of Ru'an's mansion from suppressing the Li family?
The reason my daughter went to Prince An's mansion was also to seek protection.
Thinking of this, Li Tianyou straightened his back even more.
He can't let his daughter down.
Besides, isn't the Marquis of Ru'an here today only for his money?
If he's unwilling to give it, does he think he can just take it by force?
His daughter has already handed him the ladder; if this Marquis of Ru'an dares to do anything today, he'll go to the Emperor to complain tomorrow!
He couldn't do anything to Marquis Ru'an, but they still had to submit to the Emperor.
“Brother Li, what are you saying? They say a son-in-law is like half a son. Ji Tong is your son-in-law. You can accept kneeling before your father-in-law,” Lin Qihua said with a smile.
"Does Marquis Ru'an think that I, Li, am not well-informed in Li'an County and do not know that you proposed to my son with such confidence, but on the wedding day, you closed your doors tightly? Is this your family's attitude?" Li Tianyou accused angrily.
"It's because I, Lin, failed to raise my son properly," Lin Qihua could only apologize with a forced smile.
He cursed Li Tianyou in his heart, but also felt that it was all Zhou Yutang's fault. If she hadn't seduced his son, why would he have to bow and scrape to a merchant with this unfilial son today?
"Since Marquis Ru'an knows that he has failed in his duty to educate his son, yet he still brings him here to me, does Marquis Ru'an think that I am capable of teaching him?" Li Tianyou asked Lin Qihua with a mocking look.
"You..." Lin Qihua did not expect Li Tianyou to be so ruthless towards him.
"Lord Ru'an, please leave." Li Tianyou turned his back, showing no intention of giving the two any face.
Moreover, Li Tianyou knew that Lin Qihua must have something to ask of him since he came to see him today.
If I am the victim, why should I bow and scrape to them?
"Li Tianyou, are you sure you want to do this?" Lin Qihua was no longer willing to pretend.
He was being polite just now, that was to save face for Li Tianyou.
