After Li Tingchen asked, he reached out and pinched her palm, then gently scratched it with his fingertips.

Seeing his little movement, Shen Xinlei wanted to pull her hand back, but he had already held it tightly.

Shen Xinlei glared at him hard, and because her face was red, the glare looked like she was acting coquettishly.

Li Tingchen couldn't help but move closer to her and kissed her hard.

"I'm hungry." When Shen Xinlei said she was hungry, Li Tingchen didn't continue to kiss her, but quickly picked up some food for her.

"After dinner, I'm going to go see Abao." She also sent a message to Tang Fubao, saying that he would meet her later.

"it is good."

Shen Xinlei looked at Li Tingchen and saw that he was not in a good mood because of Tao Xiwei, so she just ate well.

After Tao Xiwei ran out of Li Tingchen's room, she drove away directly.

Faced with her actions, Mr. Li also received the news.

"What's Tingchen's reaction?" asked Mr. Li.

"The eldest master has always been calm."

Mr. Li pursed his lips, then sighed and said, "He was also deeply hurt by his mother."

The butler looked at him and didn't respond.

After a long while, Mr. Li spoke again: "If Tingchen can handle it himself, let him handle it! I have to learn from him too. Some things should be handed over to the right person."

In the past, he always said that he believed that the younger generations could handle things well.

On the surface, he seemed to let his children and grandchildren solve the problem themselves, but he was monitoring their every move.

Now when he says he's going to make changes, it's not just talk, but action must be taken.

"What about the whereabouts of Madam?"

"No need to follow." Mr. Li said cheerfully, "We just need to do our own thing well."

The housekeeper understood and went out to call those people back.

Mr. Li's men had just followed Tao Xiwei to the hospital and were called back. After seeing Tao Xiwei walk into the hospital, they turned around and left.

……

In the ward.

Tao Xiwei first looked at Tao Chengzhe lying on the bed and felt very distressed, then looked at his father beside him.

After not seeing him for a few days, his hair had turned completely white and he looked like he had aged ten years.

When my father came to the bureau to see her a few days ago, he didn't look this old.

She choked up and called out "father".

She came out this morning because she received a call from her father, asking her to have a good talk with Li Tingchen.

Mr. Tao was also very excited to see her. He walked up to her and asked, "Did you have a good chat with Tingchen?"

"We talked." When Tao Xiwei heard Li Tingchen's name, her eyes immediately turned cold and her face became long.

"What did he say?" Old Master Tao was already used to her reaction when she mentioned Li Tingchen, and he used to advise her not to be so obvious.

But every time I persuaded her, she agreed, but in reality, there was no change at all.

Gradually, Mr. Tao stopped persuading him.

But now they need Li Tingchen's help, and Tao Xiwei's attitude that Li Tingchen still owes her something has made Mr. Tao feel uneasy.

Tao Xiwei immediately complained: "He said he wanted to kill Hongyi, just like he killed Chengzhe."

Mr. Tao looked at her sharply and asked, "Did he really say that?"

"He is so cruel. I didn't wrong him." Tao Xiwei seemed to have finally found someone with whom she could curse Li Tingchen together, and she continued to curse indignantly.

"I've always said that Li Tingchen is an ungrateful person who can never be tamed. He dared to attack his own uncle now, which means that he was also responsible for Li Hongyi's injury. He will kill me in the future too."

Tao Xiwei thought of the loving scene between Li Tingchen and Shen Xinlei just now, and also thought of Li Hongyi's disfigured face, and said angrily: "I must help Hongyi vent his anger. I can't do anything to Tingchen, but I can still deal with Shen Xinlei."

"Are you going to deal with Shen Xinlei?" Old Master Tao asked nervously.

"Father, don't persuade me. I can't swallow this." Tao Xiwei thought her father was trying to persuade her not to be impulsive.

Mr. Tao did not explain to her, but first figured out what she was thinking, and asked: "How are you going to deal with her?"

"Destroy her face." After Tao Xiwei said this, she also thought this was a good idea.

Old Master Tao looked at Tao Xiwei in surprise, his eyes full of complicated emotions.

At this time, Tao Xiwei did not understand what his eyes meant, and continued to make excuses for herself: "Hongyi is disfigured, and it is very difficult for him to speak. They will definitely laugh at Hongyi. If Shen Xinlei is also disfigured and becomes the same as Hongyi, Li Tingchen and the others will accept Hongyi."

"Do you think Li Hongyi was not accepted because he is disfigured?" Grandpa Tao seemed to realize for the first time that his daughter was so stupid.

"They are disgusted by Li Hongyi's disfigured appearance." Tao Xiwei said firmly.

"..." Seeing that she still took it for granted, Mr. Tao couldn't help but fall back to his original position.

"Dad, are you feeling unwell?" Tao Xiwei asked with great concern.

"I'm fine." Mr. Tao waved his hand.

Tao Xiwei looked at him for a long time, and only breathed a sigh of relief when she was sure that he was okay, and continued to scold Li Tingchen and Shen Xinlei: "Hongyi is Li Tingchen's biological brother, they are the closest to him in the world, why doesn't Li Tingchen help his own brother."

"Because you are biased." Old Master Tao could tell that Tao Xiwei was biased when he heard her calling their names.

Calling Li Hongyi is like calling his name gently, while calling Li Tingchen with both his given name and surname seems to be filled with deep hatred.

"Ah?" Tao Xiwei even suspected that she had heard it wrong.

"We are biased and have hurt Li Tingchen's heart." Old Master Tao stared at Tao Xiwei and repeated it again.

Tao Xiwei wanted to refute, but she didn't dare to speak under her father's gaze.

"Why do you have such an idea? Do you think Li Tingchen owes us something?" asked Mr. Tao.

"Is not it?"

Annoyed by her self-righteous attitude, Mr. Tao laughed out of anger: "Then let me ask you, besides giving birth to him, what have you done for him?"

"…Just the fact that I gave birth to him is enough."

"Be objective."

Tao Xiwei thought for a long time, and finally came up with the idea: "He was able to marry Shen Xinlei, thanks to my help."

"Shen Xinlei's marriage to Li Tingchen was arranged by the Xie family. They wanted to kill Shen Xinlei through Li Tingchen." Grandpa Tao sighed again when he said this.

I don't know whether I am sighing that Li Tingchen and Shen Xinlei have such a good relationship, or sighing that my daughter is so confused and still hasn't seen the truth.

"When you advised me to help Li Hongyi before, was that your own idea or did Li Hongyi teach you?" asked Mr. Tao.

"I thought of it myself."

"Tao Xiwei."

Her father rarely called her by her full name. Tao Xiwei was startled and lowered her head slightly and whispered, "Hongyi taught me."

Mr. Tao felt like the world was collapsing.

After a long while, Mr. Tao finally found his voice and said with pain and helplessness: "I shouldn't have listened to your grandmother's words, saying that daughters should be beautiful and please their husbands."

Tao Xiwei didn't know why her father suddenly mentioned her grandmother, so she lowered her head and said nothing.

Mr. Tao didn't need her answer. He took out his phone, looked at Tao Xiwei and said, "I'll call Li Tingchen. I'll ask you to apologize to Shen Xinlei later. You have to cooperate with me."

"I……"

"If you don't cooperate, I won't care even if Li Hongyi dies in Beijing." Grandpa Tao said calmly.

Tao Xiwei had no choice but to compromise in the end.

He called Li Tingchen, and Li Tingchen only answered the phone after the third call.

"Grandpa, what's the matter?" Li Tingchen's pleasant voice came from the other end of the phone.

"Tingchen, I heard from your mother that it was my and her fault." Old Master Tao quickly said the key point, "And your uncle's injury was definitely not caused by you. If I'm not mistaken, it was Li Hongyi's revenge on your uncle for not helping him."
