Chapter 445 - 445: Wanwan’s Daddy Beats Me (2)
Li Luming opened his eyes and looked back. He pointed at the mahogany chair and said,” Sit down.””
Zeng Yu brewed some tea and placed two purple clay cups on Li Muchen and Li Menting’s table. He bent his back slightly and said,” Old Master, I’ll take my leave now.””
Li Luming waved his hand. After Zeng Yu left, he said,” Ah Chen, how’s your wife?””
Li Muchen placed his hands on his lap and replied calmly,” Luoya’s body is fine now. Thank you for your concern, Grandpa.””
” Yes.” Li Luming nodded and looked at the two of them. He went straight to the point.” Yesterday, Wu Zhenxiong called me from Shanghai.”
Wu Zhenxiong? Li Menting was stunned.” Dad, why did Old Master Wu call you?”
“What else could it be?” Li Luming’s old face revealed a hint of displeasure.
Li Menting’s heart skipped a beat when she heard that. Could it be that Xia Jinzhi went to gossip again? She was really persistent!
After a while, Li Luming calmed himself down and said,” Ah Chen, go back to the Li residence later and pack up Xi Wen’s belongings. Xia Jinzhi will come from Shanghai in two days.””
“Dad!” Li Menting glanced at Li Muchen and her heart ached for him.” Xiwen is Ah Chen’s late wife. Why should she give her belongings to Xia Jinzhi?!” Ah Chen just wants to…”
“There’s no need to say anymore.” Li Luming’s tone was firm.” Since it’s been five years and Ah Chen has remarried, he shouldn’t keep his ex-wife’s things for the sake of his pregnant wife. This matter is settled.”
Li Menting stood up with tears in her eyes.” Dad, how can you do this? This is a private matter between the younger generation. Why should Wu Zhenxiong ask you to…”
“Why?” Li Luming slammed his palm on the mahogany tea table, making a loud noise. He suddenly shouted with a red face,” He saved your father’s life back then! Can you do it?”
Li Menting’s words were stuck in her throat. She opened her eyes and looked at her father, unable to say a word.
“Mom.” Li Muchen grabbed Li Menting’s arm and stood up. He looked at Li Luming and said,” Grandpa, don’t worry. I’ll do as you say.””
“Ah Chen.” Li Menting was stunned. She turned around and looked at Li Muchen in disbelief.
After lunch, Li Muchen drove Li Menting back to the Jing Mansion.
In the car, Li Menting frowned and said,” Ah Chen, I know you haven’t been happy all these years. When Xi Wen left, the pain in your heart was deeper than any of us. Later on, you had to take care of Yan Yan, a child who wasn’t your own flesh and blood. Chen Chen and I were indeed too selfish. At that time, we only thought about letting your mother-in-law experience the pain of losing her daughter, but we ignored your feelings after losing your wife and child.”
Li Muchen furrowed his brows slightly and looked straight ahead.
Li Mengting continued. So, when Luoya told me that she had been dating you since a year ago, I was surprised and relieved. Especially after that, Grandpa, your father, and even Chen Chen agreed to you and Ro Ya getting together. I believe you know that we all sincerely hope that you can walk out of Xi Wen’s death. You’re only thirty-five years old. You still have a long way to go in life. You shouldn’t always be stuck in the past and unable to move forward. Grandpa had no choice but to force you to do this because he was indebted to Wu Zhenxiong. Mom knows that you have deep feelings for Xi Wen, but she has been gone for five years. I believe that she also hopes that you can live a happy life in this world. Why don’t you take this opportunity to let go of everything in the past?
In the future, he would live a good life with Roya, alright?’
