At the dinner table
Yang Mingjiu watched helplessly as his girlfriend, Li Wan, put a piece of crispy meat into Li Zelin's bowl, then looked at Li Zelin with a sweet smile. Then he watched helplessly as Li Zelin very naturally picked up the piece of crispy meat and put it into his mouth.
Fallen.
Li Zelin has fallen.
Li Zelin never eats food that others pick up for him! No matter if they are the same sex or not, familiar or unfamiliar. There was even an embarrassing incident when a girl who he didn't know very well picked up a dish for him and put it in his bowl. He just changed the bowl.
It's fallen, it's really fallen.
Yang Mingjiu sighed inwardly, feeling somewhat melancholy.
Alas, even Li Zelin's thousand-year-old iron tree has blossomed.
He...he wants it too!
Just as he was thinking about it, a small piece of crispy meat fell into his bowl.
He looked up.
Li Wanzheng looked at him with a smile: "Brother, try this, it's Auntie's specialty, it tastes great."
Yang Mingjiu felt melancholy and touched. He picked up the piece of meat and saw Li Zelin staring at him coldly, his dark eyes shooting cold arrows at him.
What's the big deal? It's just a piece of meat! You're too stingy!
Yang Mingjiu thought angrily, but the chopsticks in his hand shook and the meat fell into the bowl. He smiled apologetically to Li Wan: "I suddenly remembered that I don't like pork."
Li Zelin said calmly: "He can pick it up by himself."
Yang Mingjiu gritted his teeth and smiled, "Yes, yes, yes, I can do it myself."
Li Wan tried to hold back her laughter. She had thought that someone like Li Zelin, who wasn't close to anyone, probably didn't have many friends. Even if he did, they would probably be like him. She didn't expect that he would have a friend with such a temper. This actually made Li Zelin more popular.
After dinner, my aunt made tea.
They moved to the living room sofa.
Yang Mingjiu asked Li Wan curiously: "By the way, how did you and Ze Lin know each other?"
Li Wan looked at Li Zelin, who was holding a cup of tea and looking over at her with his eyelids raised.
A smile appeared on Li Wan's lips: "We have known each other since childhood."
"Yo! Or childhood sweethearts?"
Yang Mingjiu looked at Li Zelin.
This girl looks to be in her early twenties. Could it be that Li Zelin has had a crush on her since childhood and that's why he has remained a virgin for so many years?
Yang Mingjiu thought about it and his eyes changed when he looked at Li Zelin.
A scum of the gentleman class! A beast in human clothing!
Everyone calls him "big brother" all the time, but he actually has the heart to do that to them. Tsk tsk tsk tsk.
He couldn't help but look at Li Wan again, but this girl was so pretty. Her face was as big as a palm, and her face was white and tender, like a peeled egg. She had a pair of watery and charming eyes, but her temperament was gentle and kind, especially good at cooking. If he had a girl like this around him, he might have taken action a long time ago...
Why doesn't he have a girl like this around him?
Yang Mingjiu felt sour that he didn't realize that his gaze stayed on Li Wan for too long, which made someone unhappy.
The bottom of the cup made a dull sound when it hit the coffee table.
"You should go now."
Li Zelin put down the cup and reminded him.
Yang Mingjiu was dissatisfied and raised the teacup in his hand: "I haven't even had my tea yet!" Then he raised his wrist and looked at his watch: "What time is it? Are you kicking me out?"
Li Zelin ignored his accusation and stood up, "I'll take you downstairs."
Yang Mingjiu: “…”
Li Wan stood up and walked them to the entrance. He smiled and said to Yang Mingjiu, "Brother, come visit us often when you are free."
While changing his shoes, Yang Mingjiu turned around and said to Li Wan, "I'll come when I'm free!"
If for no other reason, just to annoy Li Zelin, this heartless junior brother.
Yang Mingjiu came outside and said, "Hey, Zelin, you hid it really well. Are you afraid that someone will rob it?"
Li Zelin said calmly, "It can't be taken away."
Yang Mingjiu said, "Hey! Don't disbelieve me! Don't think you are handsome and rich, but you are thirty years old after all. The girl just now was probably only twenty, right? You are ten years older than her! Do you know what girls like nowadays? Little milk dog, little wolf dog, do you know what that means?"
Li Zelin's face showed no emotion and he seemed to have no interest in this topic at all.
Yang Mingjiu said: "Hey, you don't understand at first glance, it's a sister-brother relationship. Girls nowadays like younger men. Uncles like us are not popular anymore!" Yang Mingjiu said this with a bit of melancholy: "Alas, the world is really going downhill."
Li Zelin watched Yang Mingjiu get into the car expressionlessly. When he turned around, his brows furrowed.
…
Li Wan was sitting on the sofa watching a variety show. When she saw Li Zelin coming back, she asked, "Has Senior Brother left?"
"Yeah." Li Zelin walked over and sat down next to her very naturally.
There was a funny moment in the variety show and Li Wan laughed out loud.
At this time, the aunt brought the cut fruit plate and placed it on the coffee table. She glanced at the TV and fixed her eyes on a male idol who had fallen into the water while doing a task and climbed out of the water. She said, "Hey, isn't this the young idol who has been very popular recently? He is very handsome and delicate like a girl. My daughter likes him very much."
Li Wan took a closer look, tasted it, and nodded: "Well, it's quite good-looking."
Li Zelin's gaze was fixed on the face of the thin and handsome young man on TV who was pulling his hair back. He inexplicably thought of what Yang Mingjiu had just said, and his eyes suddenly darkened.
"Auntie, you can go back first." Li Zelin said suddenly.
Auntie was standing there watching TV. Upon hearing this, she immediately said a little embarrassedly: "Okay, I'll go back first." Then she said to Li Wan: "Wan Wan, if you want to eat anything tomorrow, send it to me on WeChat."
She used to always call her Miss Li, but Li Wan asked her to just call her Wanwan. She was not used to it at first, but got used to it after being called that many times.
Li Wan said goodbye to her with a smile.
As soon as his aunt left, Li Zelin ruthlessly turned off the TV.
Li Wan looked at him in surprise.
Li Zelin said calmly: "Tell me what happened today."
Li Wan immediately perked up. She talked about Jiang Yujiao's surprise and astonishment when she first arrived at the Li family's home, and also about all the cozy touches of the Li family's home. She even described how Jiang Yujiao's cooking skills were exceptionally good.
Li Zelin looked at her, her eyes were shining, and her face was full of emotions when she said these things. When she talked about the various warm aspects of the Li family, she had a hint of envy and expectation. When she talked about her similarities with her father and brother, she smiled. When she talked about the gift she gave to her mother, she had a hint of pride. It was so vivid that he couldn't take his eyes off.
"Oh right!" She suddenly remembered something and turned around to get her phone. "Let me show you a picture of my brother. He was playing basketball. I took a sneak shot of him..." As she spoke, she opened the photo album on her phone. She took a lot of pictures, but most of them were not very good to look at. They were either blurry or they were taken with their backs facing away. She finally found a picture with a front face. She immediately came up to Li Zelin and pointed at one of the boys in school uniforms. "This is it."
Li Zelin's gaze finally left her face and fell on the mobile phone screen, following Li Wan's fingertips and onto the boy's face.
In fact, he would be able to recognize it even if Li Wan didn't point it out to him.
The young man had a pair of eyes similar to Li Wanxiao's.
But unlike Li Wan's peach blossom eyes that were always smiling, this boy's dark eyes had a hint of coldness, and his temperament was completely different.
"Isn't my brother handsome?" Li Wan said, "I heard from my mom that he is the top student in the grade, and many girls in school are chasing him. Isn't that amazing?"
This proud tone made Li Zelin feel a little uncomfortable.
He said calmly: "When I was in school, I was number one in the school every year, without exception."
Li Wan immediately raised his head and looked at him, exclaiming: "Brother, you are really amazing."
Li Zelin's slight discomfort was diluted and he felt somewhat relieved.
Li Wan then asked, "When you were studying, did many girls chase you?"
Li Zelin raised his eyebrows slightly, as if he thought the question was too superficial, so he did not answer, but his attitude spoke for itself.
"Then...what kind of girls does big brother like?" Li Wan suddenly came closer, with her fair and tender little face in front of Li Zelin, staring at him with a pair of bright eyes that always had a smile on them.
Li Zelin did not step back. He lowered his eyes slightly and his gaze fell on her face.
She is indeed very beautiful.
A beauty that can be praised by everyone.
But there has never been a shortage of good-looking people around him. The good looks that are obsessed with the world do not have much appeal to him, but perhaps because it is her, this beauty is attractive enough to him.
"Next week is Mom's fiftieth birthday." He suddenly changed the subject.
Li Wan was stunned for a moment, then was successfully misled, and said with embarrassment: "I almost forgot." It's not almost, but in "Li Wan's" memory, there is no memory of family members' birthdays at all. In her memory, whenever someone in the family has a birthday, she will be notified in advance, so she has never taken the initiative to remember it.
"I'll prepare a gift for you." said Li Zelin.
"No need!" Li Wan said immediately, "I want to use the money I earn to buy a birthday present for my mother."
Li Zelin frowned slightly.
Li Wan moved her butt towards him, got closer and explained: "It's not that I don't want to use your money, but this is my first salary, and I think it would be more meaningful to use it to buy my mother's birthday present." Then, she blinked and asked: "Brother, what do you think?"
Li Zelin took a sip of tea and said, "It's up to you."
"Brother." Li Wan called him.
Li Zelin turned his head to look at her, and saw that she had gotten very close to him without him noticing, and her pair of dark eyes were staring at him without blinking.
His Adam's apple moved slightly, but he didn't step back. He fixed his eyes on her, motioning her to continue.
Li Wan said: "You just held my hand."
Li Zelin's heart skipped a beat.
Li Wan suddenly smiled: "I'm so happy."
Li Zelin was startled, his heart skipped a beat. The next second, Li Wan climbed into his arms, hugged him with open arms, buried her face in his chest, and muttered, "I haven't recharged in a long time..."
Li Zelin's Adam's apple rolled a few times with difficulty, and he seemed to finally give up resistance. He slowly raised his hands and hugged her.
"Brother, I like you so much." Li Wan said in a muffled voice.
Li Zelin's eyes flickered, and after a while, he hummed.
I don't know if it's a response or an answer.
…
When Li Rou returned home, there was no one at home. Her mother must have gone to the company to work overtime again. Although she spent more time at the Li family now, she would still come home occasionally. It seemed that only here could she find real peace. She stood for a long time where her and Li Chao's certificates were hung. She remembered how happy her parents were when she received the certificates when she was a child. They were different from her. They were both emotional people who could always give their children the greatest encouragement and support, as well as the most love.
When she was a child, she often felt out of place in this family. She seemed to be far less sensitive than them in terms of emotions, and her emotions were far less abundant than theirs.
But it cannot be denied that she has a deep attachment to this home.
Li Rou shifted her eyes away from the wall, and then found the family photo album next to the TV.
After Dad passed away, this photo album was rarely taken out and they rarely took photos anymore.
She opened the photo album and saw the family photo, and her hand gently stroked it.
That was the best time of her life. She had loving parents and an obedient and sensible younger brother. From childhood to adulthood, they were all very tolerant of her. Even her brother, who was four years younger than her, always gave in to her.
In comparison, she seemed to have paid nothing and was just enjoying it all as a matter of course.
She looked at her father's gentle and bright peach blossom eyes when he smiled in the photo, but Li Wan's eyes suddenly appeared in her mind.
She hated Li Wan since the first time they met and she discovered that Li Wan's eyes were so similar to those of his father Li Chao.
It’s as if... Li Wan is the one who should appear in this family photo.
And the love she received in this family originally belonged to Li Wan...
Li Wan can definitely integrate into this family better than her.
Maybe, the family would like Li Wan more than her.
Just like the people of the Li family.
Even though she had tried her best, even concealing her cold nature and working hard to get close to them and please them, there was still that cold barrier between them.
She had seen Li's mother secretly wiping away tears more than once.
Li Wan was right, she was indeed a victim, but that didn't stop her from hating her. She hated her so much that she even hoped she would disappear from this world.
“Crack.”
There was the sound of a key turning at the door, and then the door opened. Jiang Yujiao, who had finally finished her overtime work, came back. Seeing Li Rou standing in front of the TV, she was stunned for a moment, and then said happily: "Rou Rou, you're back!"
Li Rou closed the photo album and turned around as if nothing had happened, "Well, Mom, are you working overtime again?"
"That's right. The company suddenly had an account that didn't match. The new accountant was a newcomer and couldn't figure it out, so they asked me to go over there. Have you eaten? I'll cook for you." Jiang Yujiao said as she closed the door and walked in, ready to go to the kitchen to cook.
Li Rou smiled and said, "I haven't eaten my mother's cooking for a long time."
Jiang Yujiao was also very happy: "When you are free, come to my house often to eat. Send mom a message in advance if you want to eat something, and mom will make it for you!"
Li Rou smiled slightly.
What comforted her the most was probably that even though her mother knew that she was not her biological daughter, her feelings and attitude towards her did not change at all, as if everything was the same as before, except that she had other family members.
She saw a necklace on Jiang Yujiao's neck and said casually, "What a beautiful necklace."
Jiang Yujiao smiled happily when she heard this: "I bought it from Wanwan."
The smile on Li Rou's lips suddenly froze.
Jiang Yujiao didn't notice. She lowered her head and touched the exquisite sapphire, saying to herself, "Wanwan came home today and cooked with me. I didn't expect that she grew up in the Li family and can cook well. She said that this necklace was bought with her first salary and it is very commemorative. She even went to school to bring soup to Chaochao..."
Li Rou pulled the corner of her mouth and interrupted Jiang Yujiao: "Very good."
Jiang Yujiao raised her head, looked at Li Rou hesitantly, and asked cautiously: "Rou Rou, are you unhappy?"
She said this not because she completely disregarded Li Rou's feelings, but because Li Rou had told her before that she also hoped Li Wan could come back.
That's why she shared these with Li Rou so happily, thinking that she would be happy for her too.
"How could that be?" Li Rou smiled and said, "I've said it before, I hope she can come home too... This is what she should do."
Jiang Yujiao held her hand and looked at her lovingly: "I'm glad you're not unhappy. You should know that mom's love for you will never change."
Li Rou curled her lips: "I know."
"Then mom will go cook for you." Jiang Yujiao said as she was about to go into the kitchen.
"No need, Mom." Li Rou said, "I have other things to do, so I won't be home for dinner. I came back just to see you."
How ridiculous it is that Li Wan would come here specially to cook, while she has never cooked in the Li family in her 20 years.
Jiang Yujiao was a little at a loss, she hadn't said she didn't want to eat just now...
"Then I'll leave first and come back to see you another day." Li Rou said lightly and put the photo album in her hand back next to the TV.
Jiang Yujiao wanted to say something, but Li Rou had already walked towards the door. Jiang Yujiao hurried over to see her off: "Then come back when you have time."
"Okay." Li Rou just responded lightly and went downstairs.
Jiang Yujiao stood at the door until she could no longer see Li Rou, then she sighed softly. She said that she hoped Li Wan would return to this home, but in reality, she still minded...
......
Li Wan felt that based on her observations and tests during this period, the only thing between her and Li Zelin was a thin layer of window paper between them.
And today is a great opportunity.
Today is Jiang Wanjiao's 50th birthday. Because Li Rou has returned to the Li family, the Li family does not want to let Li Rou down and wants to hold a grand banquet. By the way, they want to make Li Rou's identity public at the birthday party and book an entire floor of a five-star hotel in the city for guests from other places and guests who are tired and don't want to go home to stay overnight.
Given the Li family's status in Yunlin City, and their intention to make a big splash this time, naturally there were many people coming to show their support.
The guests coming and going in the hotel's grand banquet hall are all rich or noble. It is a rare occasion for the ladies to show their beauty in such a big occasion, so naturally they don't want to lose to others. They all picked out the most expensive and beautiful dress in the cloakroom and put it on. The social circle of the upper class is so small that the people coming and going may not be familiar with each other, but they can always establish relationships with each other.
This is a perfect social occasion.
Although tonight is Jiang Wanjiao’s 50th birthday party, in reality, everyone’s attention is on Li Rou.
She had never appeared in social occasions before and was a complete newcomer. People were very curious about how this biological daughter of the Li family compared to Li Wan.
So as soon as she showed up, she was immediately surrounded by people like the moon surrounded by stars.
Li Rou was wearing a light blue custom-made dress tonight, with a graceful smile on her face. No matter who came to talk to her, she would greet them with a smile and speak politely and courteously, looking very easy to get along with.
But no one noticed that there was always a subtle coldness in her eyes.
In terms of appearance, Li Wan and Li Rou can be said to have their own merits.
But when it comes to how she behaves, the Li family's own daughter is much better than Li Wan.
Li Wan didn't have a good reputation in the social circle in the past. She never made friends with anyone. It was harder than climbing to the sky to please her. The reason why she was so popular was just because of the Li family's background.
Now that she has taken off the halo of being the daughter of the Li family, she is nothing anymore.
What is curious is that.
Li Wan will not show up at the banquet tonight.
"How dare she come? Her biological daughter is back. They're holding such a big party tonight. It's obvious that they want their biological daughter to show up in public so that everyone can recognize her face."
"If I were Li Wan, I wouldn't come. I can't afford to lose face."
"Who knows, he might be thicker-skinned than you. Besides, don't look at Li Wan like that, he's a smart guy at heart. What's the point of being thick-skinned? If you curry favor with the Li family, it won't be enough if something slips out from between your fingers."
"The Li family's biological daughter has returned, so there is no place for her in the Li family. Besides, Li Zelin is the head of the Li family now. Li Zelin sent Li Wan abroad four years ago. It is obvious that he does not like her. Now there is no blood relationship..."
As he was speaking, the discussions around him suddenly stopped abruptly as if the pause button had been pressed.
Everyone looked in one direction.
"Why is she here..."
The guests had different expressions.
The girls who had been talking around her suddenly shut their mouths. Li Rou looked up and the smile on her face slowly froze.
Those gloating, curious, onlooker, and hostile gazes all fell on Li Wan.
Everyone's expressions and eyes told her that she shouldn't be here.
For the first time, Li Wan felt how poor Li Wan's social skills were.
It takes great courage to appear in such an occasion.
Fortunately, this scene was nothing in her life.
The tall and handsome man next to her suddenly stopped and raised his arm slightly in an invitation gesture.
"Take my hand," he said.
Everyone saw Li Zelin's posture.
Li Wan raised her head and looked at him in surprise.
Li Zelin's deep black eyes looked back at her calmly under the huge, gorgeous, bright lights above his head, waiting quietly for her to put her hand in his arm.
Li Wan's eyes felt a little sore, the corners of her mouth slowly lifted up, she smiled at him, and then solemnly put her hand into his arms.
His other hand reached up and gently squeezed her fingertips before releasing them. He ignored the guests with different looks and those shocked and incomprehensible gazes and walked deeper into the banquet hall with her.
Li Zelin forcefully enveloped Li Wan under his protection. His actions clearly sent a signal to everyone that he was Li Wan's backer.
The power that Li Zelin now holds completely represents the Li family.
All those looks of contempt, disdain, and gloating were retracted.
They realized that Li Wan did not fail as they had imagined.
"Brother, what's going on?!" A dissatisfied voice sounded beside him.
Li Rou looked over and saw her little cousin Li Shu standing next to her. Four years ago, it was Li Wan who pushed her downstairs and was sent abroad by Li Zelin.
Her beautiful face, which inherited the Li family's excellent genes, was filled with an expression of incomprehension.
Li Rou looked at Li Wan, who was walking towards her with Li Zelin's arm in hand, and clenched her fingers silently.
Li Shu held her hand at this time and said angrily: "Sister Rou, don't be angry, I will make her pay later."
Several girls around looked over, as if they wanted to see Li Rou's reaction.
Li Rou showed a gentle smile on her face: "Li Shu, I'm not angry." As she said that, she calmly brushed Li Shu's hand off her arm, then said goodbye, lifted her long skirt, and walked straight towards Li Zelin and Li Wan.
Everyone's eyes followed Li Rou's figure.
This scene is really wonderful.
The crowd watching the show was eager to see the two of them fall out in public.
Unfortunately, the scene they expected did not appear.
"Brother." Li Rou first smiled softly at Li Zelin, then she set her eyes on Li Wan's face, smiling: "Wanwan, welcome."
It was as if the warning that night had never existed.
Li Rou was wearing haute couture tonight and jewels worth millions around her neck, looking as noble and elegant as a white swan.
Li Wan was only wearing a newly bought dress, which was cheap compared to the high-end brand dress that Li Rou was wearing. However, as she stood opposite Li Rou, she was not at all overshadowed by Li Rou's brilliance tonight. The bright yellow sleeveless dress made her skin look as white as jade, and her snow-white skin seemed to be glowing. Her hair was tied up, revealing her slender and elegant neck. Under the light skirt were two slender legs, and the two small yellow flowers in her hair were like the finishing touch, making her look extremely vivid and bright.
Her flawless face no longer had the coldness and arrogance of the past. Her dark, peach-shaped eyes were filled with a smile as she said, "Thank you."
The two smiled at each other, with undercurrents hidden only in their eyes that no one else could see.
Jiang Wanjiao, who was chatting with the guests, also noticed this place because of the movement around her. She couldn't contain her joy and immediately called out: "Wanwan, Zelin, you are here, come over quickly!"
Li Wan smiled, let go of Li Zelin's hand, and walked lightly to Jiang Wanjiao, "Happy birthday, Mom!" Then he said to Li Jianwen next to him, "Dad, you look so handsome tonight."
Jiang Wanjiao couldn't stop smiling: "Be good." Li Jianwen beside her also showed a loving smile.
The guests looked at this scene, what else could they not understand? Although Li Wan was not the biological daughter of the Li family, she was raised to this age after all. I am afraid that at this point, whether they are close relatives or not is not so important.
"Mom, I prepared a birthday present for you." Li Wan took out a jewelry box half the size of her palm from her handbag: "I bought this with the first money I earned in my life. I hope you like it."
As she spoke, she opened the jewelry box, inside of which lay a delicate and small brooch.
Jiang Wanjiao opened her eyes wide in surprise.
Li Wan said, "I remember when I was a kid I lost the brooch that Dad gave you when we got married. You were very sad, but you didn't even blame me... I searched for a long time but couldn't find the same one... I hope you like this one, too."
As she spoke, she held the brooch in front of Jiang Wanjiao and looked at her expectantly.
Jiang Wanjiao covered her mouth with emotion when she looked at the brooch in the jewelry box. All those memories that she had almost forgotten suddenly flooded into her mind. She didn't know what to say for a moment. Her eyes suddenly became red. Seeing that Li Wan was still looking at her expectantly, she nodded quickly and said, "I like it very much."
"Wanwan, please put it on for mom." Li Jianwen, who was standing aside, said gently.
Li Wan nodded, then took out the brooch from the jewelry box, took a step forward, and carefully pinned the exquisite brooch on Jiang Wanjiao's chest.
Jiang Wanjiao glanced down and smiled at Li Wan, "It's really beautiful."
Li Rou clenched her fingers silently.
The memories that Li Wan created in the Li family over the past twenty years cannot be compared to anything she does.
Li Zelin suddenly glanced at her indifferently.
Li Rou's face suddenly froze slightly, wondering if Li Zelin had noticed anything.
At this moment, Jiang Wanjiao took her hand. The warm touch of her palm startled her slightly, and she looked up at Jiang Wanjiao.
Jiang Wanjiao took Li Wan's hand with her other hand, then smiled at them and said, "Mom is very happy today. Although Rourou you didn't grow up by my side, and Wanwan you have no blood relationship with me, you are both my daughters, and this will never change."
Li Rou felt a chill in her heart when she heard these touching words.
In her eyes, Jiang Wanjiao's words were just to let everyone here know that even though Li Wan had no blood relationship with her, she still treated Li Wan as her daughter and was just protecting Li Wan.
…
Although the Li family has made its position public.
But Li Wan’s popularity in the past was really bad, and blood ties were not something that could be said to have no influence. They said they were all daughters, but that might not be the case when it came to dividing the property. So naturally, those who had gathered around Li Wan in the past chose to stand on Li Rou’s side, surrounding her like the moon surrounded by stars.
Li Zelin has now completely taken control of Huanxing, and people are constantly coming to him, making it impossible for him to get away.
Li's parents also have their own good friends.
Everyone seems busy.
Li Wan was not disappointed. She walked quietly to the hotel's large balcony alone to get some fresh air.
Everyone is busy socializing, so it's quiet here.
She placed her hand lightly on the European-style railing, then took a deep breath and exhaled slowly, and her whole body seemed to become lighter.
"So you're hiding here? What's the matter? Can't you stand the fact that no one cares about you?" A clear but harsh voice sounded.
Li Wan was not in a good mood as her peace was disturbed. She frowned slightly, turned around, and her eyes fell on the face of the owner of the voice. She immediately recognized that this person was the cousin who was pushed down the stairs by "Li Wan" four years ago. It seemed like she was in a hurry to add insult to injury. She couldn't help but smile.
Li Shu immediately glared at him: "What are you laughing at!"
"Long time no see." Li Wan smiled slightly: "Are you and your scumbag boyfriend still together now?"
Li Shu's face suddenly changed and his expression became stiff.
"It seems that we are not together anymore." Li Wan smiled lightly.
Li Shu said angrily: "What does it have to do with you!"
Li Wan raised her eyebrows slightly: "Why is it none of my business? If it wasn't because of him four years ago, how could I have been sent abroad?"
Li Shu stared at her with a bad look on his face: "You deserve it, who told you to push me down the stairs!"
Li Wan looked at her, his smile faded slightly, and he looked at her with some disappointment: "You really don't know how to be grateful. Don't you know clearly who started it that day?"
Li Shu's expression changed slightly.
Li Wan continued, "But no matter what, I didn't tell your parents that you had a boyfriend when you were underage and slept with him, and he was a scumbag. If I had told them, your father might have broken your other leg as well." She paused and said sarcastically, "But you don't seem to appreciate it at all."
"Li Wan" was inexplicably very principled in this regard. Whenever she had any conflicts with sisters of the same generation, she insisted on resolving them on her own and would not complain to her elders. No matter how much she didn't want to be sent abroad, she gritted her teeth and didn't tell anyone what Li Shu said.
Otherwise, given the temper of Li Shu's father who was extremely strict with her, Li Shu might have to stay in bed for a few more months.
Li Shu's face suddenly became extremely embarrassed. She thought for a while and finally found a way to fight back: "Do you dare? If you dare to say it, I will also tell others about you seducing my boyfriend!"
Li Wan sneered, "Your boyfriend? Do you think I like him? How do you think I know you slept with him? I heard him bragging to his friends that you were still a virgin when you slept with him. He was afraid that I would tell you, so he took the initiative to slander me."
"Li Wan" even stood up and threatened him in order to protect the reputation of her cousin.
Who knew that that night, Li Shu would come to her house and tear her apart.
"Li Wan" was too lazy to explain, and the two started pushing and shoving each other in the stairwell, which led to what happened next.
Li Shu was stunned for several seconds by what Li Wan said, and then he said loudly: "You are talking nonsense! You are not that kind!"
But in her heart, she vaguely believed it. Her boyfriend broke up with her because she found out that he talked about her ** in his friend group and she found out...
"Whether you believe it or not is your business. It has nothing to do with me." Li Wan said with a smile.
Li Shu gritted his teeth, found it hard to accept for a moment, and turned and ran away.
After sending Li Shu away, Li Wan shook his head helplessly, and finally had some peace and quiet.
At this moment, a clear and pleasant voice sounded, with a smile.
"I haven't seen you for a few years. You've become more eloquent."
Li Wan was startled and looked up.
A gentle, elegant and handsome face came into view.
"haven't seen you for a long time."
