Love Burns Out: Mr. Li Loves Me

…………

……

In the study, Wen Rong and Grandpa Li, the grandfather and grandson, sat at the sandalwood table, each holding a black and white piece and playing chess.

Wen Rong held the black chess piece for a long time without making a move. She looked up at the grandfather opposite her, wondering how to tell her grandfather today that she wanted to divorce Li Zhengting...how to avoid hurting the old man's feelings?

It's not that she is too virtuous. After all, her grandfather really loves her as a junior. She is not a heartless person. It was not the Li family's fault that she couldn't keep Li Zhengting's heart in her last life, and it is not the Li family's fault that she and Li Zhengting can't live together in this life.

Perhaps no one else would be as miserable and sad as her.

Thinking of this, Wen Rong dropped the black chess piece in her hand. When she reached into the bowl out of habit, she heard the sound of a piece falling!

The white chess piece hung a corner horse to kill, completely breaking the chess game she had set.

Wen Rong smiled and said, "Is it my chess skill that is not good enough, or is it your chess skill that is superb?"

Old Master Li also smiled heartily. Even though he was in his twilight years, he could still vaguely see the heroic demeanor of his youth.

"Xiao Wen, you are a kid who can play a hundred moves in grandpa's hands. In our family, besides Zheng Ting, you are the only one who has this ability. It's a lie that you are not good at chess, but the truth is that you are confused."

Wen Rong was pointed out, but she did not deny it.

Grandpa Li: "Is there anything you need to hide from me? Just tell me, I'll take care of it for you. Did that bastard Zheng Ting bully you again?"

Wen Rong's eyes were filled with tears, and she raised her head and said firmly: "Grandpa, I want to leave him, I want to divorce him! I don't want to live with him anymore..."

Li Zhenbang looked at Wen Rong in astonishment and didn't say anything for a long time.

Wen Rong suppressed the sobs in her throat and said word by word, "Grandpa, I know you love me the most in this family. I would like to ask you to make the decision and let Li Zhengting divorce me."

Grandpa Li is the head of the Li family, and even Li Zhengting cannot disobey him at will.

Only in this way can we be completely liberated.

Li Zhenbang studied her expression carefully, trying to find out whether she was just pretending to be impulsive.

But Wen Rong's eyes were firm, and it was obvious that he was determined.

Li Zhenbang sighed: "Xiao Wen, other things may be possible, but I'm afraid that grandpa can't decide on your divorce..."

Wen Rong became anxious when he heard this!

She stood up suddenly, feeling dizzy. She held onto the table and said in a very soft voice, "Why? He was willing to marry me because of Grandpa's advice, but he had someone else in his heart at that time. You were able to get him to agree to marry me, and now you're just asking him to give up a wife he doesn't love at all. Why can't you do that?"

Wen Rong's tone became more and more anxious. It was not because she was disrespectful to Grandpa Li, but because she was desperate and helpless when she was pushed to the end.

Li Zhenbang shook his head and said hesitantly: "Xiao Wen, do you really think that Zheng Ting was forced to marry you by your grandfather?"

Wen Rong was stunned.

Li Zhenbang continued hesitantly, "I brought up this grandson. He has always had his own ideas. He will never obey you no matter how much you punish or beat him, let alone a marriage..."

Wen Rong seemed not to understand what Grandpa Li said and listened to him motionlessly.

"If he really doesn't want to marry you, he won't agree no matter how much Grandpa forces him."

The boiling water continued to emit hot steam, blurring Wen Rong's vision and blocking her senses...

"Zheng Ting grew up in a distorted relationship between his parents. No one taught him how to love someone, so you, Xiao Wen, have suffered so much... It's also Grandpa's fault for not teaching him well."

At this point, Li Zhenbang's tone froze. He had never raised a girl before, and his only daughter was taken away by Zhengting's grandmother. He had only taken care of her for a month...

Wen Rong shook her head unconsciously, "Grandpa, it's not like that. Not loving someone is not the same as hurting him. No matter what, I don't love him anymore and don't want to waste time on him any more."

Li Zhenbang refilled her teacup with tea, "Xiao Wen, you used to like that boy so much, is there really no possibility? Grandpa is an experienced person, it's not easy for two people to be destined to become husband and wife, don't act on impulse!"

Wen Rong: "Grandpa, I have made up my mind..."

Before she finished her words, there was a knock on the study door. The door opened and Wen Rong saw Li Zhengting walk in.

In front of his grandfather, Li Zhengting put away his frivolous attitude and said, "Grandpa."

Wen Rong turned her eyes away. She forgot that the tea was scalding hot and picked it up to drink it all in one gulp!

But he was stopped by Li Zhengting!

As he moved violently, all the tea spilled onto his cuffs, not a single drop fell on Wen Rong.

All of this was seen by Mr. Li. He shook his head silently and sighed in his heart: What an injustice!

Wen Rong stood up and stepped back, not caring at all about the man's hand that was burned red.

Li Zhengting shook his hands and looked at her several times.

Li Zhenbang picked up another cup and prepared to refill the tea. "Xiao Wen, go and keep your mother-in-law company. I have some business to discuss with Zheng Ting."

Wen Rong responded and turned to leave.

After she left, Li Zhengting handed the cup used by Wen Rong to Li Zhenbang and said coldly: "I'll just use this one."

Li Zhenbang looked up and glanced at him, then put the teapot down heavily!

Li Zhengting curled his lips slightly, "Tell me, why did you ask me to come back?"

Li Zhengting knew Mr. Li. If it wasn't an urgent matter, he wouldn't take the initiative to let him come back.

Li Zhenbang snorted coldly, "I never expected that Mr. Li, who is so decisive in the business world, would be schemed against and even let many people know about it. You really made me proud!"

Li Zhengting's expression remained unchanged. "You know?"

Li Zhenbang dropped the cane in his hand heavily, "Why, you still plan to hide it from me? People outside have attacked you, but you are still stupid enough to fall for it! I tell you, you must be severely punished to serve as a warning to others! Otherwise, from now on, our Li family will have too many enemies in the dark, and it will be impossible to defend against them at all."

Li Zhengting leaned back in his chair, and when he raised his head, his eyebrows were tinged with disdain, and he chuckled calmly: "What are you afraid of? Even if I am really being plotted against, no one will care except you."

Just this one sentence slowly extinguished Mr. Li's anger.

He seemed to have thought of something and sighed heavily.

Seeing this, Li Zhengting stood up, picked up the teapot, poured a cup of tea for his grandfather himself, and bent down to help the old man lift up his walking stick with his own hands.

"Zheng Ting, you were plotted against once seven years ago. Fortunately, the girl from the Chu family saved you that time. Otherwise... I, your grandfather, would have to send you off with my old age."

No matter how powerful a person may have been at one time, when he reaches the twilight of his life, he will have no power or fame left to give up, and all he wants is for the younger generation in his family to be safe and sound and to have a smooth life.

"Now someone dares to harm you again. We must not tolerate this! But be careful not to let it become known to everyone."

Li Zhenbang had been planning for most of his life, but he always felt that something was wrong.

"Zheng Ting, are you sure it was Chu Yan who saved you seven years ago?"

Li Zhengting thought of the unbearable past, and a trace of cruel murderous intent flashed between his eyebrows, completely tearing apart the cloak of precious capital in the business world.

"Don't worry, old man. I know what I'm doing."
