The Li family patriarch's expression changed slightly. Then, the smile on his face disappeared, replaced by a cold sneer as he looked at the old woman with a mocking expression.
"Hehe, Madam Li, I must say, I admire Madam Li's courage. Madam Li truly deserves to be called the most beautiful woman in the Li family. She is a real heroine. Even our most beautiful woman in the Li family, Li Wanqing, is no match for Madam Li. You are indeed much more capable than our Li family's Li Wanqing!" The head of the Li family looked at the old woman and said with a smile. However, his tone was not respectful at all. His tone was full of mockery.
The old woman's face also turned very ugly. She hadn't expected the head of the Li family to speak to her in such a mocking tone. She felt very angry. If it weren't for the fact that she needed the Li family's help and that this was her last trump card, she would have already attacked the head of the Li family. She hadn't expected the head of the Li family to dare to mock her, which made her very uncomfortable. She wished she could teach the head of the Li family a good lesson.
"Head of the Li family, don't be so arrogant. What do you mean by that? Did I say something wrong? If the Li family's rules are just ordinary family laws, then how could our Li family have been defeated by others?" The old woman from the Li family looked at the head of the Li family and questioned him coldly.
"Whether I misspoke or not, we shall wait and see!" The head of the Li family looked at the old woman from the Li family and replied indifferently, his eyes filled with disdain.
Upon hearing the words of the Li family patriarch, the old woman's eyes twitched slightly. She hadn't expected to be looked down upon by the Li family patriarch. For a moment, the old woman felt her pride had been severely challenged. Two cold glints flashed in her eyes as she glared fiercely at the Li family patriarch, her eyes filled with intense anger. However, she said nothing more. She was already considering retreating. She didn't want to waste any more words with the Li family patriarch; she needed to leave as soon as possible. She had to find a solution, otherwise, when the Li family patriarch lost his temper, she wouldn't be able to handle it, and the entire Li family would likely be affected.
"Hmph, I'd like to see what tricks you can pull!" The old woman from the Li family sneered, then glanced at the other old women in the Li family and said coldly, "Hmph, you bunch of good-for-nothings, what are you all standing here for? Get over there and grab Li Wanqing!"
"Yes, Patriarch!" Upon hearing the old woman's words, the members of the Li family hurriedly responded and then quickly walked outside. They were all impatient and wanted to bring Li Wanqing back as soon as possible.
The Li family members walked towards the door, their footsteps echoing, and soon they were outside.
"Li Wanqing, just you wait, just wait for our Li family to kick you out of the Li family!" The old woman turned around and looked at Li Wanqing as the Li family members disappeared outside the door, and said coldly, her words carrying a threat.
"I'm not afraid of you. If you've got the guts, come on then!" Li Wanqing said coldly to the old woman.
"You...you don't know what's good for you! Let me tell you, Li Wanqing, if you don't marry into our Li family today, our clan will not let you off! Just you wait!" Upon hearing Li Wanqing's words, the old woman's anger intensified. She glared fiercely at Li Wanqing and said, her tone filled with threat, resentment, and hatred!
"Is that so? I'd like to see how you manage to kick me out of the Li family. If you can do it, then go ahead and do it. I'll welcome you anytime!" Li Wanqing sneered, glancing disdainfully at the old woman before turning away, ignoring the old woman's threat. Her eyes flashed with a cold light.
Seeing Li Wanqing's expression, the old woman stopped talking. She knew very well that if she really pushed Li Wanqing too far, Li Wanqing would tell everything to the head of the Li family. At that time, she wouldn't be able to leave even if she wanted to, because she was no match for the Li family and had no way to contend with the head of the Li family.
The old woman from the Li family ignored Li Wanqing and turned to sit down on the sofa. She had already made up her mind that she would not only deal with Tang Ling and her group, but also find a way to make the head of the Li family look at her with new eyes and accept her back. Only in this way could she keep her current position. If she lost her position, her fate would be very tragic, and she might even be executed by the head of the Li family because her status was not high enough. She was not worthy to be the wife of the head of the Li family. The wife of the head of the Li family had to be someone with a background and power.
The old woman in the Li family always knew that the head of the Li family was also very fond of his grandniece, Li Wanqing. If she had any faults, then his grandniece would definitely not let her father off easily.
Although the old woman didn't say anything, her eyes revealed a resentful look. She knew very well that the head of the Li family had feelings for his grand-niece, Li Wanqing. If that was the case, then she had a chance.
