Love Burns Out: Mr. Li Loves Me

There were three people walking in a row outside the gate, led by a spirited old man with white hair, who was none other than the patriarch of the Li family - Li Zhenbang.

Old Master Li glanced at everyone present. His deep eyes clearly showed no emotion, but somehow they made people afraid to act rashly.

When he saw Wen Rong, his sharp eyes suddenly became kind. He raised his hand and waved at Wen Rong: "Fight, come to Grandpa."

Wen Rong's eyes were sore. She didn't cry when she appeared in this embarrassing situation alone just now, and she was not afraid when Xiang Qing wanted to hit her. But when she heard that Grandpa Li supported her, she suddenly couldn't bear the grievance in her heart.

Wen Rong's eyes became bright, and she walked to Mr. Li's side, lifting her skirt.

The old man even gave a fierce look to his grandson who looked like an ice sculpture!

My wife was scolded by others, but I just stood there like an ice cube! If my old comrades knew about this, they would definitely laugh at me!

When Mother Chu saw that Old Man Li had actually come, she was unable to react for a moment. Her originally ferocious expression of rage suddenly turned into one of panic and guilt, which was very interesting.

It was Chu's father who had been watching from the sidelines who calmed down first. He stepped forward and said respectfully, "Mr. Li, why didn't you tell me that you were coming? I could have prepared something for you in advance."

Even though Li Zhenbang is old, his still sharp expression shows that he was powerful and influential when he was young.

"The Chu family and the Li family are old friends. Although your father has passed away for many years, I, as the leader, cannot abandon the proper etiquette."

Father Chu had a layer of cold sweat on his forehead. "What are you talking about, Mr. Li? It's not an important day. It's just my little daughter's birthday. You've troubled me to come in person. I really can't entertain you well enough!"

Li Zhenbang waved his hand, with a unique boldness, "Chu Yan is a child I have watched grow up. It's her birthday, I should come to see her, and..."

Old Master Li pointed in the direction of Wen Rong and said, "I am old and cannot walk well, so I originally sent my grandson and granddaughter-in-law to come here for me. Who would have thought that Xiang Qing would kick my child out? Fortunately, I came here, otherwise I would not have known that Madam Chu had such a big opinion about my child."

As soon as these words were spoken, the expressions of everyone present changed.

Wen Rong naturally knew that her grandfather said this to save her face, but why did Li Zhengting not refute it at all?

Perhaps it was because his grandfather was the one in charge of the family, and he could not challenge his grandfather's authority in front of outsiders.

These few light words made Xiang Qing's face look ugly.

Even Chu Yan couldn't help but panic.

She was more than capable of dealing with Wen Rong, but now that Grandpa Li was here, she might not be able to carry out her plans tonight...

Just when she wanted to pick up the phone under her body when no one was paying attention, Mr. Li suddenly called her name -

"Chu girl, how's your health been these past few years abroad?"

Chu Yan's hand trembled, and the edited message was ultimately not sent out.

She straightened up. Since Li Zhengting, who was supposed to be next to her, was now standing side by side with Wen Rong, she could only control the terminal screen of the wheelchair with her own hands and slowly move it in front of Li Zhenbang.

"Thank you for your concern, Grandpa. Although these years abroad have been hard, I have recovered well. I believe I will be able to stand on my own feet one day."

Li Zhenbang nodded slowly, "You have recovered well, and you are much fatter than before you went abroad. This shows that you have nothing to worry about. Even a big accident like a leg injury did not affect you. You are worthy of being a girl from the Chu family."

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone subconsciously looked at Chu Yan's legs.

The old man from the Li family really hit the nail on the head. The daughter of the Chu family has been in a wheelchair for three years, but her figure has not changed at all. Instead, she has become even more beautiful and graceful.

Her complexion was also bright and attractive. If you ignored the fact that she was sitting in a wheelchair, who would believe that she had stayed in a nursing home for so long?

Li Zhenbang raised his hand at this time, and the subordinates following him immediately presented the things they had prepared.

"My nephew, your family said Zheng Ting was rescued by Miss Chu. No matter what, I, Li, have acknowledged it and accepted the Chu family's kindness. So today, in front of everyone, this small gift is just to repay the favor. When Miss Chu gets married in the future, it can be used as a dowry."

The subordinate brought the box to Chu's father. When he saw the things inside, even though Chu's father was knowledgeable, he was still shocked!

"This... such a valuable gift, we really don't dare to accept it! Mr. Li is really embarrassing our Yanyan..."

Listening to Father Chu's stuttering words, Li Zhenbang smiled softly, "He deserves it. Although Zheng Ting of my family is not very ambitious, he is the only heir after all. My granddaughter is still young, and I don't want her to shoulder the burden of the Li family. So, my nephew, please don't refuse this thank-you gift!"

As soon as these words came out, Chu's father's heart suddenly sank to the bottom. There is only one advantage of talking between smart people, which is to stop at the right time. Chu's father naturally understood what the old man of the Li family meant.

This priceless gift bought out Yanyan's favor for saving Li Zhengting and completely eliminated the possibility of their daughter marrying into the Li family.

Li Zhenbang planned to use money to shut up the Chu family and prevent them from asking for favors in the future!

Chu Yan's face suddenly turned red! It was as if she had been hit in the face!

This slap was given by Grandpa Li on behalf of Wen Rong!

Why?

Why does Wen Rong easily gain Grandpa Li’s favor without doing anything?

Why did Li Zhengting still... even though he knew that he had saved him twice?

Chu Yan gritted her teeth and held back the jealousy in her heart. Three years ago, she had become a laughing stock in North City. Three years later, she definitely didn't want to become a laughing stock again! The last thing she could do now was to lose her composure, especially in front of so many people.

Li Zhenbang's purpose of coming here has been achieved. He has said and done what he needed to say, so he plans to leave with his people.

After all, he didn't come here for a banquet.

Seeing this, Chu Yan whispered to Xiang Qing: "Mom, I feel a little uncomfortable..."

When Xiang Qing saw that her face was indeed not good, she knew that her daughter was in trouble because of Li Zhenbang's words. She was eager to protect her daughter and hurriedly said -

"I'm afraid Elder Li doesn't know yet? Zheng Ting divorced Wen Rong a long time ago. Our Yan Yan is Zheng Ting's sweetheart. I know you pity Wen Rong, but she has impure intentions after all. It's probably not appropriate to keep a woman like this in the family..."

Li Zhengting clenched his fists so tightly that his knuckles turned white. He looked quietly in the direction of Wen Rong.

There was no sadness or loneliness on her face as if she was exposed. Instead, she looked relieved.

Li Zhengting's eyes slowly cooled down...
