Chapter 56 So well-behaved it breaks your heart



Sure enough, whenever company interests are involved, Li Daocheng becomes the most agreeable person in the world.

Just a moment ago he was glaring at Li Ruo, but in the blink of an eye he has become a loving father.

"All is well."

Li Daocheng spoke with a smile, his eyes brimming with satisfaction.

“You are my daughter, and now you sit here, with the same grace I had back then.”

"Seeing you thriving in the Wen family's company, I am truly happy for you, Father."

"..."

The person in front of me kept praising me, one sentence after another.

Li Ruo sat quietly in her seat, watching and listening, but not a single word entered her mind.

All she remembers is...

It was such a cold day.

She was only a few minutes late going downstairs for dinner when her father, who was drunk that day because of a bad day at work, dumped her in the snowy yard.

She was forced to kneel there, her knees turning bright red.

Li Daocheng stood on the warm little balcony, pointing his finger at her and cursing.

"We brought you back, saying you were a rich young lady, and you actually think you were born with a silver spoon in your mouth? I get bullied outside, and now you want me to get bullied at home?!"

"Who do you think you are? You worthless piece of trash! If the family wasn't short of manpower, who would have brought back a country bumpkin like you!"

"……waste!"

It was so cold that day.

But the chill in Li Ruo's heart was even more unbearable than the wind outside.

The door in front of me was slammed shut.

So everyone inside was having a great time, except for Li Ruo, who almost died that day.

I thought I had no feelings about what happened in my previous life.

But when those images resurfaced in her mind, Li Ruo couldn't help but feel a little sad.

She forced a smile, her eyebrows curving into crescent moons, making it impossible to discern her true feelings.

"Father."

Li Ruo spoke slowly, her tone carrying a cryptic quality.

"Don't worry, as long as I'm here, the Li family will not be bullied by others."

because.

She wanted to personally send these beasts to hell.

The pain, the torment, the suffering I have experienced.

She wants to return everything to these people, in detail.

After Li Daocheng left, Li Ruo had someone carefully wipe the place where Li Daocheng had sat several times.

Just thinking about how that beast once sat here, and how she breathed the same air, made Li Ruo feel as if a million insects were gnawing at her entire body.

Finally, it's time to get off work.

Now, Li Ruo is considered an important cog in the company's machine.

To make it easier for Li Ruo to travel, Wen Huaiyan arranged a car for her, which just arrived today.

This is a deep purple Porsche sports car. Its sleek body exudes elegance and agility, making it a perfect car for Li Ruo to drive.

As soon as she got into the car, Li Ruo noticed a gift box on the passenger seat.

She paused for a moment, then opened it.

Inside, a dress as beautiful as moonlight lay quietly.

Even before the dress was fully unfolded, just by looking at it quietly, Li Ruo could already glimpse its exquisite and gorgeous nature and guess what kind of work of art it was.

Above the skirt, a small card lay quietly.

"For the puppy."

The three characters are elegant and graceful, and unique and distinctive.

At a glance, Li Ruo recognized that it was Wen Huaiyan's handwriting.

She carefully put it away, picked up her phone, and immediately sent a message to someone.

"Thank you for your kind regard, Mr. Wen. I will certainly live up to your expectations and create more value for you."

That night.

I heard today that Wen Huaiyan is out socializing.

It's so late, and I still haven't gone home.

At times like these, Li Ruo would wait in the living room until ten o'clock.

If Wen Huaiyan hasn't returned by 10 PM, we probably won't see him today.

She had just gone back to her room and lay down when, a dozen minutes later, the hum of a car could be heard downstairs.

The villa is located in a somewhat remote area, and not many people drive here.

Wen Huaiyan is back?

Li Ruo was wondering whether she should go downstairs to take a look.

Just a few minutes later, the door was opened.

She propped herself up and sat up, her eyes looking towards the doorway.

The first thing Li Ruo saw was that familiar figure.

At this moment, the man's tall figure leaned against the door frame, the dim light from outside outlining the curves of his body, making him look lazy and carefree.

Although the face could not be seen, the radiance emanating from the other person was not obscured in the slightest.

Li Ruo obediently called out.

"Mr. Wen."

In the darkness, Li Ruo's voice was gentle and soft, as if it were tickling one's heart.

It makes people's hearts itch with desire.

She spoke cautiously, with a hint of a smile.

"I thought you weren't coming back today, so I went back to my room early."

She threw off the covers and ran to the person.

Li Ruo gently raised her small hands, as if preparing to catch the coat.

At that very moment, the smell of alcohol filled my nostrils.

Did Wen Huaiyan drink?

The alcohol smells very strong and is quite pungent.

How much did they drink...?

Before Li Ruo could speak again, the smell of alcohol suddenly assaulted her again.

Li Ruo felt as if she were being pulled into an embrace, as if she were about to suffocate at any moment.

She opened her mouth slightly, her breathing became rapid, and her small hands patted the other person's shoulder.

"Mr. Wen, what happened?"
