Chapter 3795: Scheming For Life
Editor: Henyee Translations
The Xia family was the leader of the aristocratic families in the capital. Old Master Li was a smart person. Why would he go against the Xia family?
Only Madam Li thought that her son was more promising than Xia Jinyuan and secretly liked to compete with Madam Xiao. That was why she didn’t take the Xia family seriously.
Grandpa Xia naturally wouldn’t treat the daughter of the Li family as someone important. No one knew the Li family’s plan better than him.
If the Li family dared to touch them, then they shouldn’t blame the Xia family for destroying their roots.
Now, the Fu and Xia families were in-laws. The Fu and Li families were in-laws too. Their relationship was complicated. He needed to ask his old friend for confirmation.
The old master’s words were very simple. The serious-looking old man said slowly, “My daughter passed away from an illness, and my son-in-law married someone else not long after. Our relationship with the Li family has reached its end.
“As for my grandson, Jinnian, he knows how his biological mother passed away and how he was tortured by the Li family. To him, the Li family is just his family on paper. As for blood ties… they’re negligible.
“Jinnian’s personality is like my daughter’s. He boldly loves and hates. I can’t let him suffer and beg for everything.
“If Li Zhengrong really vents his anger on the Fu family because of his son and even attacks my granddaughter, as Ye Jian’s elder cousin, Jinnian would be the first to make a move. He won’t hold back just because his surname is Li.”
The old master said firmly. He believed that Li Jinnian would stand on the Fu family’s side and not the Li family’s.
With the old master’s opinion, Grandpa Xia had an idea. He nodded and smiled. “That’s good. Jinnian is indeed not bad. He’s much more mature than my Little Six. Besides his surname, he’s completely different from the Li family.
“However, I still hope that the Li family will behave themselves and not come out to cause trouble like before. Li Zhengrong is considered to be part of the older generation. If he appears again, he won’t be able to retire peacefully like before.”
The old master placed a chess piece down and agreed with Grandpa Xia. “That’s right. As long as he knows his place, there won’t be a problem.”
Would the Li family really know their place?
If that was the case, there wouldn’t be this conversation today.
Old Master Fu and Grandpa Xia knew that Old Master Li wouldn’t calm down. That was why they had this conversation today.
However, at this point, the two elders had an idea of what was going on, so they stopped the topic. They continued playing happily.
Li Jinnian, who didn’t return home immediately, went to the Li family’s residence. Although he wasn’t close to the Li family, he would visit them every time he came back and say a few words before leaving.
This time, he stayed for a long time.
When he said that he would go back to his room to rest, Old Master Li still hadn’t reacted. It wasn’t until Li Jinnian had reached the stairs that he realized that his grandson, who wasn’t close to his family… said that he would go back to his room to rest.
Second Old Madam Li’s expression turned dark. There was a hint of viciousness in her eyes. She didn’t look like an old lady at all.
These heartless people were no different from ungrateful souls. In the past, when Chuhai was around, they would all avoid him. They knew that they wouldn’t be able to gain an advantage with Chuhai around and wouldn’t be able to show off in front of the old master.
Now that Chuhai had left, these people would come back home every few days. Wasn’t it because they knew that Chuhai had left and thought that they had a chance to inherit the old master’s assets?
Wishful thinking!
Her son was gone, but she still had her grandchildren!
Li Jinnian wanted to inherit the Li family’s business that she had been scheming for and guarding her entire life? Heh, she wouldn’t agree to it!
