Seeing Li Zhiqi's dejected appearance, Li Rao touched her stomach and couldn't help but step forward to mock him, "Look at you now. Weren't you always so arrogant, thinking the company was yours for the taking? What, are you dumbfounded now?"
In fact, the relationship between the two siblings was not as good as imagined.
Li Zhiqi had long regarded Li Shi as his own possession, and he lorded it over her at home all day long. Apart from bullying Li Ruo, he never gave her a kind look.
Li Rao had long harbored resentment, and now that she had finally seized the opportunity, how could she possibly let it go so easily?
Li Zhiqi was already furious because of Fu Zhiqing's threat.
Hearing this, he became even angrier. He clenched his fists and retorted with a smirk, "So what? You're just marrying Wen Changfeng, not Wen Huaiyan, the heir. What's there to brag about? Don't forget how Wen Changfeng treated you before. If you marry him, you won't have a good life. You'll probably have a lot of troubles!"
As he spoke, his gaze grew increasingly contemptuous.
After all, Wen Changfeng doesn't seem like the kind of person who would settle down just because of a woman.
What's more... he doesn't like Li Rao at all.
Li Rao knew Wen Changfeng's character all too well, but how could she possibly admit defeat in front of Li Zhiqi at this moment? So she raised an eyebrow and said coldly, "Stop talking nonsense here. I think you're just jealous of me. Jealous that I'm about to enjoy wealth and luxury while you can only stay here to deal with a bunch of messes and be trampled under Li Ruo's feet!"
Mentioning Li Ruo, Li Zhiqi's face darkened noticeably, and his voice became even more furious: "Shut up! Do you think you can step on Li Ruo's head just because you left the Li family? Don't even think about it. Even Dad and Wen Changfeng can't do anything to Li Ruo. What are you anyway? You're just like me, only able to hide in a corner and eke out a living!"
"you!"
Unexpectedly, Li Zhiqi compared her to Li Ruo, which made Li Rao grit her teeth in anger.
But then she remembered something, and after regaining her composure, she proudly touched her belly and said, "No, no, no, I'm not like you. Now I'm carrying the Wen family's bloodline. I'll rise to prominence with my child and make a name for myself in the Wen family sooner or later. As for you, Li Ruo has taken over the company. Do you think the Song family can last long with just this little bit of wealth?"
In short, she has found a powerful backer and no longer needs to worry about her future.
Hearing the implication in her words, Li Zhiqi was slightly taken aback, and his expression grew even more gloomy.
Although it was harsh to hear, it made perfect sense; his current situation was indeed somewhat dangerous.
After all, without the company, what is the Li family worth?
Even Li Daocheng is struggling to protect himself now, let alone him...
Thinking of this, Li Zhiqi broke out in a cold sweat and felt even more agitated.
However, out of pride, he naturally couldn't agree with what Li Rao said, so he gritted his teeth and stubbornly retorted, "It's too early to talk about these things now. You don't need to worry about my affairs. As for the wealth and glory you mentioned, let's talk about that after you've given birth to this child. What if it's a girl..."
Li Zhiqi didn't say anything more, only giving a meaningful twitch of his lips.
It should be noted that in large families like the Wen family, it is always the boys who inherit the family business and take over the family business.
Although Wen Changfeng's status is not as high as Wen Huaiyan's now, he still holds shares in the Wen family. However, these shares are destined not to be given to a girl.
In other words, if Li Rao gives birth to a daughter, all her hopes will be dashed.
This is exactly what Li Rao was worried about...
Isn't her arrogance and domineering attitude just because of the child in her belly?
just in case……
No... absolutely impossible!
She shook her head sharply, her gaze intense: "So what if it's a daughter? Now that Grandpa Wen has personally acknowledged my identity, I can have more children in the future. I refuse to believe I can't have a son. As for you, you should spend your time thinking about what you're going to do in the future... you good-for-nothing!"
"You're asking for it!"
Upon hearing those three words, Li Zhiqi could no longer contain his anger and gritted his teeth, reaching out to teach Li Rao a lesson.
This brat has never dared to talk to him like this before, but she's gotten bolder today.
However, things were different now. Seeing his ferocious expression, Li Rao wasn't afraid at all. Instead, she deliberately went up to him and threatened him at the top of her lungs, "Go ahead and hit me! I'm half a member of the Wen family now. If there's anything wrong with the child in my belly, do you think the Wen family will let you off the hook? Go ahead and hit me!"
Upon hearing this, Li Zhiqi's pupils contracted, and his hand froze in mid-air.
After a two-second silence, he gritted his teeth and finally lowered his hand.
Just as Li Rao said, the Wen family is not someone he can afford to offend.
Seeing this, Li Rao's face instantly revealed a hint of smugness: "Now that things have come to this, you'd better recognize your place and behave yourself in front of me, otherwise, you'll be the one who suffers!"
After leaving a single sentence, she smugly smoothed her hair and turned to leave.
