As he watched Lan Yetian bring Li Xi away, the space between Chu Meng's brows tightened and astonishment leaked out from his eyes.

He could not accept the sudden turn of events. The person she had been chasing for six years had actually always loved his sister-in-law? But just now, Lan Yetian had said that it was his mother who separated Chu Tian and Li Xi. Would Lan Yetian choose to return to the Nation after they broke up? Too many mysteries were tangled in Chu Meng's heart.

She knew that even if she asked Lan Yetian, there wouldn't be any result, so she might as well ask her own mother.

Recovering from her shock, Chu Meng did not have time to reminisce about the past anymore, and immediately rushed back home.

"Mom!" After not seeing Chen Luoxue in the living room, Chu Meng went straight to the second floor. "Mom!"

"What's wrong?" Chen Luoxue helplessly walked out of the room and looked at the panting Chu Meng. "What's wrong?"

"Mom, did Li Xi and Chu Tian break up?" Chu Meng, who had slightly heaved a sigh of relief, tightly held onto Chen Luoxue's arm, his eyes revealing her doubts. Seeing Chen Luoxue's eyes flicker, not daring to look her in the eye, Chu Meng's heart had an answer to that question. His face was as pale as a sheet of paper, unwilling to believe it. I'm asking you if it's true! "

"Yes, coincidentally, that slut was never my daughter-in-law's standard, and now she …"

"Mom, you've not only ruined your son's happiness, you've also ruined mine." Chu Meng's eyes glowed with tears, "Your son already knew that she wasn't Li Mo, but do you know why he cared so much about Li Xi? Even he didn't know that he had already fallen in love with Li Xi, do you understand? "Don't you know your son that well?"

Towards Chu Meng's excitement, Chen Luoxue felt a little baffled.

Chen Luoxue let out a light snort, her attitude not changing in the slightest. The Chu Clan can't tolerate a lowly woman, and this woman has so many schemes, what if our family falls into the hands of that woman? She's no pushover. Once she leaves us, she'll immediately curry favor with us … "You …"

"Is a person's birth really that important?" Staring at Chen Luoxue in disbelief, Chu Meng laughed coldly three times. She felt as if her chest was being tightly pressed down by something, making it impossible for him to breathe. Mom, you and Dad came from the same world, so why can't you accept others? "

Thinking about it, Chu Meng felt sad. At first, she also disagreed with Lan Yetian and him only because the sect didn't allow him to do things to the death. Now, she was even treating her brother like this. Chu Meng laughed bitterly as tears dropped down from her eyes.

Seeing Chu Meng's expression, Chen Luoxue was in a dilemma.

"Meng'er, what's wrong? Why did your temper get worse after you went out for so many years? Can't you talk to your mother properly?" While talking, Chen Luoxue actually felt that she had been wronged. The corners of her eyes were wet, and she was sobbing on the bed.

Wiping away the tears on her face, Chu Meng coldly glanced at Chen Luoxue. How am I supposed to talk to you? Mother, did you know? Lan Yetian is the CEO of the Red Maple Group, the adopted son of the Red Maple Group's chairman, Lan He Qun, and in the future, he will become the successor of the Lan family, and he will be the one that you despise. You wouldn't agree to even die for the person I like.

With a bitter smile, Chu Meng slumped down onto the chair, looked at Chen Luoxue who was in front of him, and could only helplessly wipe her tears. The happiness of me and my younger brother were completely ruined by you, and you even claimed that you were good to us. This is the end result of you being good to us! Mom, is this what you want? "

Turning her head, Chen Luoxue stared at Chu Meng in shock. After a long while, he still hadn't recovered from her shock.

Lan Yetian had actually become the successor of the Red Maple Group, the Red Maple Group was an amazing company that was even close to the Ling family. Chen Luoxue couldn't help but to touch the bottom of her heart as she calculated, making her decision, her face full of smiles.

"Meng'er, what does it matter? You just have to insist on what you like." Chen Luoxue slightly lifted Chu Meng up, and gently placed the hair at the side of her eyes behind her ear. Meng'er, Li Xi is married, and I heard that she is already pregnant, so no one can take your Lan Yetian away from me. "

These words caused Chu Meng to reveal a look of doubt.

Marry? Pregnancy! She could not believe that Chu Tian, her own little brother, would actually give up on Li Xi and let her be with another man? This was completely unlike the person who had solemnly vowed to protect Li Xi in front of him back then.

Pulling out a bit of the sore tip of her nose, Chu Meng finally came back to her senses. She looked at Chen Luoxue with a measuring gaze, and such a gaze made her entire body feel uncomfortable. What's wrong, Meng'er, you … "You …"

"Chu Tian will not inherit the family business, I am afraid it will not be as simple as you say!" At that time, Chen Luoxue had told him that Chu Tian's plan was to fight openly and secretly. But now, it seems that Chen Luoxue had left him with a headache and helplessness. That was why he left! Chu Meng could not help but grin coldly. Mom, what are you hiding from me? "

Being questioned by Chu Meng, Chen Luoxue's heart became even more uncertain, and her eyes flashed again.

"No, no more …" Chen Luoxue replied with an embarrassed smile on her face. Meng'er, your most important mission right now is to get rid of Lan Yetian as soon as possible. This time, mother will definitely support you fully. "

Glancing at Chen Luoxue, Chu Meng did not say anything else. Even if she had done something wrong, she was still her mother.

The next day

"Li Xi, this is a banquet that I am hosting. I hope you can bring Ling Yushi along to attend." Chu Meng passed the invitation card in her hand to Li Xi who was dressed in her clothes, and swept her eyes over Ling Yushi who was sitting on the sofa that was as cold as ice, while his own body felt as if it was frozen. In the past, if Mom did something that would make you angry, I hope you could write it off on my account. "

Sweeping her eyes at the warm smile, Li Xi lowered her eyelids and smiled.

A write-off? She did want to, but there were some things that could not be solved unilaterally.

"I feel that if I were to go to this banquet, it would not be very appropriate. I think that elder sister should understand that due to aunt's temper, I would only be trampled upon if I were to lower my head. I do not want to continue living in a lowly manner." Li Xi shifted her gaze from the red invitation card back, his watery eyes became as clear as they were before, causing people to be captivated.

Chu Meng's face stiffened, and the light in her eyes dimmed.

"Li Xi, you …"

"We'll be there on time tonight." Unknowingly, Ling Yushi had already quietly arrived beside Li Xi. A large hand was placed on her shoulder, and with one hand, he had already taken the invitation from Chu Meng. However, a captivating smile leaked from the corner of his mouth, captivating others.

Chu Meng, who had yet to react, was completely flabbergasted. The tall and handsome man in front of him had seized all of his attention, and it took a long time for him to regain his senses.

"Well, see you tonight then." Chu Meng said softly as she turned to leave.

Looking at Chu Meng's back, Li Xi gently bit her lips, which were as tender as peach blossoms, leaving a white mark. "I …"

"What's wrong?" Ling Yushi lowered his eyelids, but his eyes still showed a doting look. Is there anyone that you don't want to see? "

Ling Yushi seemed to say something, Li Xi's heart felt like it had been knocked hard by someone, and he could not help but break out in a cold sweat.

"No, no." Li Xi raised a smile to cover the panic in her heart, but her small hands unconsciously tightened, as she tried to calm down.

This scene had already entered Ling Yushi's eyes. He lifted his eyebrows slightly, and used both hands to crush Li Xi in his arms. I heard that you went out alone yesterday, but you didn't go to the detective agency.

With regards to Ling Yushi's words, Li Xi's eyes twinkled.

She frowned, helplessness in her eyes. She was worthy of saying that she was naive. She should understand that she couldn't escape from these eyes.

"I... I went to see a friend. " With a guilty conscience, Li Xi lowered her head and looked Ling Yushi in the eye, before unwillingly releasing her small hands. "Yes, I'll be right back."

In Li Xi's mind, she had already deleted everything she should not have said and should not have said …

Ling Yushi raised his eyebrows slightly as the smile on his face faded. Friend? Friends can kiss! "

Li Xi swallowed hard and smeared all over her body. His heart beat even faster, as if she was about to blurt it out. With great effort, she suppressed the crazily beating heart within her little face, causing Li Xi to bite her lips as she blushed with embarrassment. Eyebrows... You, you asked me even though you knew! "

She was displeased and threw her face to the side, but in her heart, she was like a child that refused to admit to doing something wrong, playing with her temper.

"The next time is definitely not allowed!" The finger with the distinct bone knot raised Li Xi's chin, forcing her to look like the only person left in her eyes, "Do you remember?"

Her indifferent tone was much gentler than before, but that pair of black eyes seemed to exude a domineering aura that could not be resisted. Li Xi blinked his eyes helplessly, and only then was she able to slowly put his chin back to its original position.

"Lan Yetian?" Ling Yushi stopped Li Xi from walking into the living room while muttering to herself.

The little heart Li Xi had just let down started to beat once again. He even knew this!

Eyebrows... Li Xi's face was filled with black lines. She shouldn't hide anything from him, and now, what is this ice mountain trying to do? Just thinking about it, Li Xi felt her hands and feet go cold, and even her bones become stiff. "We … we are just friends. You …"

"En, indeed. So tonight, I must let him know that you are mine!" Ling Yushi was still striding elegantly like before, like a noble leopard with an innate domineering aura. As he sat on the sofa, his eyes that were half as sharp as knives continued to say: "Other than me, no one else can touch you!"
