Li Rou felt a little heavy in her chest as she just looked at Li Wan. She couldn't imagine that these words actually came out of Li Wan's mouth.
It cannot be denied that Li Wan is right.
She really couldn't do anything worse.
Whenever some dark and bad thoughts appeared in her mind, there was always another voice telling her firmly that this was wrong.
Li Rou looked at Li Wan, whose face was gentle, and suddenly felt that she didn't look so annoying anymore. However, this realization made her even more uncomfortable. She frowned and asked, "What do you want to say?"
"I said before that we were both victims, but now I think I was wrong. In fact, we are both very lucky. Although we have swapped our identities, we both have the love of our parents." Li Wan said, "Maybe my material life is richer than yours, but your parents spent more time with you growing up. Although Li's parents also love me, they didn't have that much time to accompany me when I was a child, so they compensated me in other ways."
Li Wan smiled and said, "When I was little, I envied those kids who had parents to pick them up from school. I often ate alone. I was very afraid of my eldest brother when I was little. I would rather be alone than be with him."
Li Rou's expression softened slightly. When she heard Li Wan talking about Li Zelin, she even wanted to laugh.
She was both respectful and fearful of Li Zelin. She wanted to be close to him, but was afraid of his indifference.
So when Li Wan talked about her childhood feelings, she could completely empathize with them.
Li Wan said: "In fact, we have received double the love now. Whether it is the Li family's parents or the Li family's parents, they love both of us equally."
"I know what you are afraid of, because I was more afraid than you at the beginning, so I chose to escape at first, but now I have thought it through." Li Wan looked at Li Rou and said softly, "It is impossible for us to replace each other, and I have never thought of replacing you. If possible, I hope we can live in peace and even become friends. After all, we were born on the same day of the same month of the same year, and we have a common family. In fact, we can also be considered each other's family, right?"
Li Rou looked at Li Wan quietly, and after a while she said, "I hated you very much, and I still do now."
Li Wan was not angry or surprised, she looked at Li Rou calmly.
Li Rou continued, "Especially after you said these words, I seem to hate you even more. You and I are two completely different people. You have a high emotional intelligence, strong expressive ability, and are very persuasive and contagious." She realized that she had been praising her all the time, and after a pause, she reluctantly added, "You are also very likable."
But she never knew how to please others since she was a child, or rather, she knew how to do it, but she couldn't do it.
She has low emotional perception and expression abilities. Her elders don't like her and she doesn't have many friends because she doesn't know how to get along with others and can't respond to other people's enthusiasm normally. Most of the time, she prefers to be alone.
She once felt that she was out of tune with this world.
Her parents are both very cheerful people, and even Li Chao can have a normal social life.
Only she was different.
Until she came to the Li family and met Li Zelin.
Only then did she realize that there was someone in this world who was so similar to her, yet so much stronger than her.
Although she could always feel the gap between her and this family, she had an inexplicable sense of belonging to the Li family.
That's why she hates Li Wan so much.
Ultimately, this dislike was caused by her jealousy and fear.
After saying those words to Li Wan that day, she couldn't even believe that those words came out of her mouth.
If Dad knew, he would be very disappointed in her.
Because even she was disappointed in herself.
"But I agree with what you said." Li Rou looked at Li Wan and said, "I really can't do anything, but that doesn't mean I will be friends with you. I don't need friends."
Li Wan smiled slightly: "Maybe."
Li Rou couldn't help but sneered: "Don't be too confident, I still hate you."
"But I don't hate you anymore." Li Wan said with a gentle smile.
Li Rou frowned and said unnaturally: "That's your business, it doesn't affect my dislike for you."
Li Wan suddenly looked behind her, "Brother."
Li Rou froze immediately. She turned around and saw no sign of Li Zelin. Then she heard Li Wan burst out laughing. She turned around angrily and asked, "You lied to me?"
Li Wan tilted his head like a child who had successfully played a prank: "You look so serious all day long, so I'll scare you."
Li Rou glared at her: "You are really annoying."
"Brother." Li Wan suddenly called her again.
Li Rou glared at her and said in a bad tone: "You are so boring."
"Are you done talking?" Li Zelin's voice rang out.
Li Rou's back suddenly stiffened. She turned her head and saw Li Zelin standing behind her with a calm face. She was a little flustered, "Brother..." and turned to look at Li Wan.
Li Wan had a look on her face that said, I didn't lie to you this time, then she walked past Li Rou to Li Zelin and gave him a sweet smile: "We're done talking, are you leaving?"
"Let's go." Li Zelin said.
"Rou Rou, see you at the company tomorrow." Li Wan turned around and said goodbye to Li Rou.
Li Rou responded stiffly.
Li Wan said goodbye to Jiang Wanjiao again, then raised her head and said goodbye to Li Jianwen who was walking down from the second floor.
Li Jianwen sent them to the door, his expression was particularly gentle: "Come home for dinner more often."
"Okay, Dad." Li Wan said with a smile and walked out with Li Zelin.
…
"What did you talk about with Li Rou?"
Li Zelin asked in the car.
"Reconcile with her unilaterally." Li Wan said.
The reconciliation tonight was not part of her plan, but Li Rou was going to Huanxing now, and her relationship with Li Zelin might not be kept secret. There might also be discussions at the company, so she had to stabilize Li Rou first, or at least not play any tricks on her in front of Li's parents.
She whispered, "Li Rou and I don't get along, and it's Mom and Dad who are in trouble."
She lowered her eyes to hide the dark light in them.
In fact, even the location of the conversation was carefully selected by her.
The Li family at this time.
Li Jianwen and Jiang Wanjiao both returned to the room.
"Wanwan has really grown up." Li Jianwen suddenly sighed.
Then he roughly repeated to Jiang Wanjiao the conversation between Li Wan and Li Rou that he had heard. After he finished speaking, he found that Jiang Wanjiao's eyes were red again.
"Why are you crying again?" Li Jianwen felt helpless and walked over to hug her shoulders.
"I just feel... so distressed." Jiang Wanjiao said sadly: "I would rather she was still the same as before, living happily without worrying about anything. If I had known earlier, I would never have agreed to Ze Lin sending Wan Wan abroad four years ago... We owe her too much."
Li Jianwen patted her on the back and said, "Children will eventually grow up."
Jiang Wanjiao wiped away her tears and said, "I just want Wanwan to find a good home. I don't think the colleague she mentioned is reliable. Please help Wanwan keep an eye out for someone suitable. It would be best if he knows her well, so that we can feel at ease."
Li Jianwen nodded.
Jiang Wanjiao thought about it again and said, "Last time it was my birthday, Ji Yao also came. I think he's quite nice. When Wan Wan was little, she liked him very much. When she knew he moved away, she cried a lot. I think she must have liked him at that time. I think I'll find a time to invite Ji Yao to my house for a meal, and invite Wan Wan to have a meal together."
Li Jianwen thought for a moment and said, "Ji Yao is pretty good. He didn't take over his father's job, but started his own company. I heard that he is doing well and is very steady in dealing with people. I haven't heard that he has any messy affairs. If he can really succeed, it would be good."
Jiang Wanjiao became happy again: "You are a good judge of people, so it's settled then."
The couple chatted for a while and went to bed early.
…
"Are you afraid that our parents will know about our current relationship?"
At the entrance, Li Zelin suddenly asked.
Li Wan changed her shoes. She didn't expect him to ask this suddenly. She turned around, looked at him with some surprise, and then nodded slowly.
Li Zelin's eyes darkened slightly.
Li Wan lowered her eyes, "I'm so afraid that my parents won't be able to accept it and won't let us be together."
Li Zelin was startled for a moment, then frowned, "Is this what you're afraid of?"
Li Wan raised her eyes to look at him, with some doubt in her dark and clear eyes: "Apart from this, what else is there to be afraid of?"
Li Zelin looked at her steadily.
Li Wan said: "Now I am not afraid of anything except being separated from you."
The ceiling light at the entrance shone on Li Wan's head. The warm yellow light fell on her head, covering her with a layer of cozy light. There was also a warm and soft light in her eyes.
Li Zelin suddenly approached, lifted her face with his slender fingers, placed his palm on her fair cheek, and rubbed it with his thumb. The skin under his fingers was warm and tender. He stared at her condescendingly, "You don't have to be afraid of anything."
Li Wan opened her mouth, and Li Zelin lowered his head and kissed her.
Warm and soft lips pressed lightly against hers, bringing with them an inexplicable breath of pleasure.
Li Wan's lips were the softest things Li Zelin's lips had ever touched. Just a light touch made him taste sweetness.
His lips were close at hand, and his voice was low and gentle, "Don't be afraid of anything, just stay by my side."
Li Wan hummed softly.
"Be good. Big brother loves you." The cold thin lips uttered sweet words in a deep tone, and Li Wan's heart trembled.
Li Zelin kissed her again, this time not only their lips touching each other, he sucked her lips, then stuck his tongue in and wrapped it around her wet and soft tongue tip.
Li Zelin was a little obsessed. He tasted her lips and tongue again and again. He could not get enough, so he simply took her to the sofa, then hugged her on his lap, pulled her into his arms by the waist, and kissed her enough.
The rapid and disordered breathing of the two people intertwined together. Li Zelin placed his hands on Li Wan's back and began to rub her vigorously, pressing her against himself, as if this could suppress the throbbing in his heart and the strange restlessness in his body.
The heat from the man's body was continuously transmitted from the bodies that were touching each other. Li Wan was extremely sensitive. Her fair cheeks turned red and the corners of her eyes were filled with moving watery light.
Li Zelin let her go, panting, but only with his lips and tongue. He still held her in his arms, their faces so close that their hot, rapid breaths mixed together.
Li Zelin came closer again, licking and kissing her lips that had become extremely red from his kisses, suppressing the strange desire surging in his body.
Too fast, he was afraid it would scare her.
"Why is your face so red?" He pushed aside the hair on both sides of her cheeks and murmured in a deep voice, his voice unusually magnetic and hoarse.
Li Wan put her arms around him with her soft arms, put them under his neck and buried her face in his neck.
Li Zelin kissed her twice on the cheek tenderly, with an uncontrollable smile on his face. He hugged her, feeling extremely satisfied.
Don't worry about why she loves him.
We hugged each other quietly for a long time.
Li Wan's muffled voice came from under his neck: "What if Li Rou finds out?"
Li Zelin said: "I will find an appropriate time to tell my parents."
Li Wan raised her head from under his neck, her hands still around his neck, and said with a little worry on her face: "What if mom and dad can't accept it? What if they don't agree?"
Li Zelin stared at her: "If they don't agree, will you not be with me?"
Li Wan immediately shook her head, then moved closer, hugged his neck, pressed her warm and soft face against his, and said softly, "I don't want to be separated from Big Brother."
Li Zelin was totally unable to resist Li Wan's clinging to him and acting like a spoiled child. His heart softened and he held her tighter.
Li Wan rested her face on his shoulder, "I want to be with you forever."
Li Zelin was silent for a while, turned his head and kissed her hairy back of the head, and whispered "OK".
…
Li Rou's arrival caused a sensation in Huanxing.
Everyone was stunned.
"Doesn't Mr. Li have only one sister? Why did another one suddenly appear?"
"This Li Rou was sent here personally by the chairman."
"Don't you think Li Wan doesn't look like our CEO Li and the chairman at all? That Li Rou today looks so much like CEO Li and the chairman. Her temperament is just like CEO Li, especially aloof."
"Isn't Li Wan Mr. Li's sister?"
"How is it possible? How could Mr. Li stand up for Li Wan for no reason?"
"Could she be a cousin or something? I saw Li Wan talking to the chairman, and they seemed very close."
Not only the colleagues downstairs were talking about it.
Secretary Liu, Secretary Wang and Secretary Xiao, who had just returned from a business trip, were also greatly shocked.
Li Jianwen simply sent Li Rou to the company, said a few words to Li Zelin and Li Wan, and then left.
Li Rou stayed in Li Zelin's office.
Li Wan stayed outside, working as usual, with no sign of anything on his face.
The secretaries didn't dare to ask any questions.
"Secretary Xiao, what's going on? Doesn't President Li only have one sister?" Secretary Wang asked Secretary Xiao.
After all, Secretary Xiao is President Li's personal secretary. Among them, she is the one who knows Li Zelin's family situation best.
Secretary Xiao smiled bitterly: "From what I understand, Mr. Li only has one sister. Now I am confused too."
Secretary Liu asked, "Could it be that Li Wan is Mr. Li's cousin or something?"
Secretary Wang said, "Just now Li Wan called the chairman dad."
"But Li Wan really doesn't look like the chairman or Mr. Li at all. Look at the girl just now, you can tell at a glance that she is the chairman's daughter. She looks and has the same temperament." Secretary Liu smacked his lips and made a bold hypothesis: "Could it be that Li Wan was adopted? Is the girl just now the biological daughter of the Li family?"
Secretary Wang's heart skipped a beat, and he suddenly remembered what he had witnessed in the conference room yesterday.
I thought to myself, maybe Secretary Liu guessed right.
If Li Wan was really adopted and there was no blood relationship, then it seemed to make sense...
Secretary Xiao looked confused: "I've never heard of it."
He had never even heard of Li Rou, let alone met her before.
