He charged forward fiercely and punched Li Heng in the ear!
The hearing aid flew off, and Li Heng heard a "buzz" in his ear. He frowned and collapsed to the ground in pain.
Li Changgui pounced on him.
He straddled him, and fists rained down on him.
Li Heng curled up in a ball, tightly protecting the watch and phone in his arms.
Amidst the buzzing sound, he saw Li Changgui's lips opening and closing, his face contorted in a ferocious and twisted manner. The thought that he had the same blood flowing through his body as Li Changgui suddenly made him feel a spasm in his stomach, and a violent wave of nausea surged up, causing him to dry heave uncontrollably.
"You won't let go?! Money is more important than life, huh?!" Li Changgui lost his mind, grabbing his hair and slamming him to the ground, letting shards of broken glass pierce his forehead. "I'll teach you to protect me!"
A sharp pain exploded.
Warm drops of blood slid down his forehead and landed on Li Heng's eyelashes, blurring his vision.
In that crimson blur, he suddenly realized with absolute clarity—
I realized how much I valued everything Shen Zhiyi had given me.
Her importance in his heart had long surpassed his survival instinct.
The buzzing sound disappeared.
The world fell silent.
Just as Li Heng was in despair, he suddenly heard a familiar voice coming from the doorway.
Is this the right place?
Will Li Heng be angry that I came to see him without saying goodbye?
Never mind!
Let's see if he has the guts to get angry with me!
Li Heng's eyes widened, and a sense of panic welled up inside him.
It's her!
She came to find him!
No... I can't let her see all this!
Such a beastly father, such a rotten and disgusting family, such a hellish past...
She mustn't see this!
If she saw her own ugliness and wretchedness, would she still want to get close to him in the future?
Never again...
Li Heng felt his blood run cold.
"Ding-dong—"
The doorbell rang abruptly.
Li Changgui shuddered, abruptly stopping his fist and looking at the door in horror.
Are they debt collectors?!
He shoved Li Heng aside and frantically tried to escape through the window.
With a sudden burst of strength, Li Heng lunged forward and braced his entire back against the door.
Don't shout... Don't shout...
His arms trembled as he watched his father about to climb out the window. He gripped the doorknob tightly, praying that Shen Zhiyi wouldn't make a sound so that Li Changgui wouldn't hear...
"Li Heng? Are you home?"
She banged on the door.
A clear but questioning voice rang out.
Li Heng didn't hear her shout, but he saw Li Changgui stop and his eyes suddenly brighten as he came to his senses.
He closed his eyes in despair.
"Damn it...it's a woman? She's here to see you?!" Li Changgui rushed over, his face no longer showing fear, only twisted excitement. "You scared the hell out of me!"
Li Heng opened his eyes, staring at him with bloodshot eyes.
They blocked the door completely.
Seeing the unprecedented panic and protectiveness in his eyes, Li Changgui's eyes darted around and he instantly understood what was going on, bursting into a triumphant and ferocious laugh.
"Hahahaha! I knew it! Where did you get the money to buy all this good stuff! You'd rather die than give it to me!"
"So he secretly got a girlfriend!"
"A money tree!"
"Since she's so willing to spend money on you, she can't just stand by and watch her future father-in-law die, right?!"
"If you want to enter the Li family, first show me your sincerity!"
His smile was sinister.
Suddenly, I realized that Li Heng couldn't hear me.
His face immediately revealed a fierce expression.
He mouthed curses and used all his strength to pull Li Heng away from the door!
"Get out of my way! Don't get in my way!"
There's no reason to block a money tree from coming to your door!
He reached out and, with a click, yanked the door open—
