. She stumbled and lost her balance, rushing forward into a familiar embrace.The sudden intimate contact left Li Bochen and Luo Ningxi both a little surprised.Lu Ningxi instinctively wanted to push aw..."Visiting the old house to see Grandpa, isn't that a natural thing to do"
Li Bochen surveyed the newcomer's dusty appearance, a teasing tone in his voice. "It seems you're well-informed, older brother. You must have quite a few informants planted in the old house, wouldn't you say"
Li Jianbin was about to get angry, but thinking of what had happened these days, he suppressed his anger and said coldly, "I thought you were here because you got into trouble and came to ask Dad to clean up the mess for you."
He said, striking a haughty pose.
"You could get away with being reckless before, but now that you're in the company, you represent its face! How can you help outsiders and embarrass your father and Miss Mu"
When Li Jianbin brought up the stage performance again, the old man’s face turned even worse. He pressed his hand against his nose and coughed heavily a few times!
Li Bochen let out a cold snort, "It's clearly Mu Xiyin who has narrow views and stirs up trouble. You're also putting the blame on me just to please your father because of an outsider!"
"Don't change the subject, I'm telling you not to cause trouble in front of those media outlets in the future, no one will clean up your mess!" Li Jianbin's face was stern, his expression barely holding.
"Big brother, you haven't even cleaned up your own mess and you're coming to scold me Your nephew got his fiancée's child aborted and isn't taking any responsibility for it. It's also had a significant impact on the company, hasn't it"
Elder Li, of course, also heard about this. Upon hearing this, a flash of anger crossed his eyes, “Big brother, hasn’t this matter been settled”
Li Jianbin glared fiercely at Li Baochen and quickly explained, "It's already been handled, but this matter mainly affects the reputation of Yushu. It doesn't have much impact on us..."
"How is there no impact You and Yu Ran are husband and wife, Yu Chengnan is your nephew, and I heard that all the projects between Yushi Group and Li Group were given to him by you. Why are you now starting to distance yourself"
Li Jianbin was so angry that his face turned ashen. He raised his eyes and met Li Bohan's nonchalant gaze.
It's his fault, yet the topic somehow turned to me!
"Dad..."
"You should just get back and handle this mess. Things are falling apart all over the place!"
Li Jianbin still wanted to argue, but was interrupted by Old Master Li, "Go back first. I have some things to discuss with the fourth."
"Dad, if you continue to spoil the youngest, he'll get into trouble sooner or later!"
Although Li Jianbin was angry, he couldn't disobey his grandfather. He could only leave after throwing down those words angrily.
Just as I was about to go downstairs, I ran into Mu Xi Yin who was coming up the stairs.
Mu Xi Yin looked at Li Jian Bin's face full of anger, and subconsciously stopped her steps, "Big brother, you are back too."
Li Jianbin's face was dark, he ignored her greeting and hurried downstairs.
Mu Xiyin's face froze suddenly. She had been treated like a star since birth, receiving nothing but adoration. Where had she ever received such cold eyes
She suppressed the anger in her heart and finally calmed down to walk to the study door. Just as she was about to knock, she heard the voices of Old Master Li and Li Bochen inside.
"This time, YinYin did act rashly, but you can't completely disregard her! Instead, you helped Luo Ningxi take photos!"
"Because I never had the obligation to take care of her in the first place, Luo Ningxi is at least my ex-wife. What does she think she is"
Li Bochen's voice was icy, as if he had personally pushed Mu Xiyin into an endless ice cave!
After knowing each other for so long, they finally said —
"What is she"
She was a well-bred lady, excelling in every aspect - her figure, appearance, talent, abilities, and family background. There wasn't anything she lacked compared to Luo Ningxi.
Mu Xi's fists clenched tightly, and she heard the conversation coming from inside.
Elder Li asked, "Don't you have any feelings for YinYin In what way is she inferior to Luo NingXi"
"Dad, I have my own plans. Don't waste your time on me."
Hearing Li Bochen say this, Mr. Li sighed deeply, "Sigh, it's fine, I'm old now and can't control you anymore, do whatever you want."
Mu Xi Yin was startled.
Even the old man Lian Li is giving up on himself now
Never in her life had she lost, nor suffered such humiliation!
This matter cannot be settled like this!
Mu Xiyin's eyes flashed with ruthlessness, she turned and left gracefully. She hadn't planned on letting the two people in the room know, but Gu Ye, who had just returned after taking medicine, saw it.
However, Gu Ye did not startle Mu Xi Yin, but Mu Xi Yin went downstairs before he walked out from the shadows.
……
Li Bocen had a long chat with the old man in his study. As soon as he walked out, Gu Ye came up to him.
"Lao Li, I just saw Mu Xi Yin. She didn't go into the study and walked away directly. What were you two talking about in there"
"Mu Xiyin"
Li Bichen didn't take this woman seriously at all, so he naturally wouldn't care.
The old man cared most about his reputation. After this incident, it's estimated he won't try to matchmake them anymore.
"Yeah, seeing her face wasn't good, she must have heard something..."
"Beep beep—"
Gu Ye was speaking, when Li Boche's phone in his arms suddenly rang. It was a call from Jian Ningyi.
As soon as I picked up, a weak voice came through.
"Hey, Achen, I'm over here at the commercial street, my stomach hurts... could you come pick me up"
Li Bochen's brows tightened, his long and narrow eyes radiating a chilling coldness. Jian Ningyi hurriedly spoke again, "Come over here quickly! I really can't...I couldn't possibly joke about the child!"
"Give me your location."
Li Bochen hung up the phone and hurried downstairs, leaving Gu Ye alone.
Gu Ye frowned, almost chasing after him, "Why is he always in such a hurry Besides Luo Ningxi, I haven't seen him care so much about anyone else"like Miss Luo this time isn't really acting, you know, pregnant women are emotionally unstable and all... maybe she really has something like depression...""Enough! What nonsense are you talking about...
