Chapter 343 - A Memory From The Past (9)



There lied Li Rui with her eyes opened only a little as she looked at General Li and whispered softly.

"Don\'t …do this, F..ather."

The hand that he had just roamed on Li Zhan\'s grave was now holding his sleeve lightly …but this was the whole strength Li Rui had currently.

Her face was still very pale making General Li\'s heart clench every time he looked at her.

A tear slid out of the strong General\'s eyes as he rubbed his hand on his daughter\'s pale face and whispered in a trembling voice.

"Rui…my child…"

Saying this, he hugged her tightly to his chest hiding his face completely as if afraid that someone will see his tears.

However, from his voice, anyone could know what General Li was feeling at this moment as he said

"Father will not do anything …as long as you take care of yourself. Father will never touch Li Zhan\'s grave."

Standing a few steps away, Yi Jie cried happily when she came to know that her daughter was awake. She hurriedly ran forward and hugged her husband and daughter putting aside her shame while Li Hua and Li Mei also sighed in relief at the same time a little happy that their Young Miss was finally awake.

Amidst this, a little happy and a little depressing atmosphere, Li Rui whose head was placed on her father\'s shoulder tilted her head a little and looked at the small plant that was now grown just a step away from Li Zhan\'s grave.

A memory flashed in her mind.

At this place, she had once buried the seeds. She had enthusiastically taken care of this plant. And on someday, Li Zhan had said once to her

\'A plant that is being taken care of by Young Miss herself, Li Zhan would love to have her grave under this tree.\'

At that time she as well as Li Mei and Li Hua had not talked to Li Zhan because of her words. However, she still remembered Li Zhan\'s words when her father asked the servants to bury her.

\'Li Zhan, are you happy that you are buried here?\'

However, there was no Li Zhan now who will answer her.

\'Li Zhan, I will live for you. Even though it is very difficult, I will live for you …as long as it is in my hands.\'

--------

After that day, Li Rui\'s health started to improve at a very fast rate. Her pale face was now started to get a little ruddiness.

Sometimes at night, she would suddenly wake up from nightmares and run out to sit at Li Zhan\'s grave. When it happened for the first time, Yi Jie and General Li were very worried.

So Yi Jie decided to sleep with her daughter for a few days.

Whenever Li Rui would still wake up from her nightmare, her mother and maids will silently accompany her to sit beside Li Zhan\'s grave. Sometimes, even General Li would come and sit beside his daughter.

With time, the nightmares became less and hence Yi Jie stopped sleeping with her daughter.

Many days later, Yi Huiqing came to Li Manor once again. She was very happy en excited after her mother gave birth to her younger brother so she couldn\'t stop herself from sharing everything with Li Rui.

And just like that, inside Li Rui\'s room, Yi Huiqing told her how small and cute her little brother was. There was a small smile on Li Rui\'s lips as she heard Yi Huiqing\'s chattering and wrote something on rice paper with a brush in her hands.

A few moments later, Yi Huiqing stopped suddenly making Li Rui raise her head and look at her. When she saw Yi Huiqing\'s gaze fixed at a place, she followed it and even the small smile from her lips vanished instantly.

There stood the four-year-old Li Chen at the door of the room with a face full of guilt.

No emotion could be seen on Li Rui\'s face and eyes as Li Chen stepped inside and then came to stand in front of her. However, he didn\'t say anything.

Seeing this, Li Rui picked her brush again and started writing calmly.

A moment later, she heard Li Chen\'s whisper

"Jiejie…

Li Rui didn\'t say anything and Li Chen called out again.

After three times Li Chen called Li Rui, Li Rui still didn\'t put down her brush but asked him calmly

"Why are you here?"

Li Chen was silent for a moment before he let out meekly

"Jiejie …Second Uncle might ask Jiejie about that day this evening. Can Jiejie not tell anything to Second Uncle?"

The brush in Li Rui\'s hands stopped for a moment before she put it down and looked at him again.

His big black eyes were just full of fear …fear that his second uncle will find out that it was him who lied that day and hence put the wrong blame on Li Rui that she was the thief.

There was no guilt.

"I will not…"

Li Rui whispered suddenly.

Li Chen\'s eyes brightened instantly. He thought that his second elder sister was right in the end. His Jiejie loved him very much and would never like that he would get punished.

Li Chen was very happy and wanted to Li Rui hug immediately. However, he had just raised his arms when Li Rui spoke coldly

"…If you never come to my courtyard again."

Big black eyes full of shock stared at Li Rui.

"Jiejie, ….wha…"

However, Li Rui interrupted Li Chen and said

"If you stepped inside my courtyard again, I will tell my Father what you and your sisters did that day."

Li Chen was so shocked as she stared at his emotionless sister. He suddenly couldn\'t recognize her and his eyes slowly started to fill with tears.

"Jie..Jie…"

He sobbed as she murmured. However, Li Rui ignored him and turned to pick her brush again

"Please leave the room and don\'t come back again."

Li Chen stood there for a few moments before he finally turned around to leave the room.

Li Na and Li Caihong\'s words continued to ring in his ears.

\'If she gets angry at you for this without hearing anything, then she doesn\'t really love you.\'

\'Chenchen, she is not your real sister. Why would she love you more than us?

\'Her brother is Li Diu. She will always choose herself or her brother rather than you.\'

After that day, Li Chen never visited Li Rui\'s courtyard.

In the evening, when General Li came back, he immediately called for Yi Huiqing in his study room and asked her what had happened on the day of gathering.

However, Yi Huiqing also didn\'t tell him anything.

She just said that she was standing beside Li Rui when Li Rui suddenly fell on the floor.

And hence General Li had to give up on this investigation.
