City A, International Airport.
On the flight from London, they landed safely. Not long later, in the airport lobby, two beautiful stylish ladies walked out, along with a handsome little shota.
After the three of them walked out of the airport entrance, the little shota couldn't help but cheer, "Oh yeah, I'm finally back."
"Heh, I don't know who it is. I was determined not to board the plane and stay in London some time ago."
Fang Menglin pulled the suitcase with one hand and couldn't help teasing him.
"Auntie, I have to express my reluctance to leave the end of the trip." The little shota raised his head, and his little expression showed that he was in a good mood.
Li Mengqi couldn't hold back her laughter. She reached out her hand to rub his hair, "You're the only one who knows how to talk big."
"Yeah, I don't know who he learned it from."
Fang Menglin was also impressed.
"Aunt, then can you bring me to the country next time?"
This trip abroad had increased his knowledge by a lot. The little shota made up his mind to travel around the world when he grew up.
"En, as long as you are obedient, Aunt will bring you wherever you go!"
Li Mengqi bent down and pinched Li Yunfan's smooth and tender cheeks, smiling so much that her eyes curved.
"Then do you still want to pull out your great-grandfather's hair next time?"
Li Yunfan innocently asked as he blinked his big eyes.
"…"
Li Mengqi choked, a few black lines quickly flashed across her forehead. However, it was Fang Menglin who couldn't hold back her curiosity. "No way, Qiqi, you actually made Fan Fan pull out your grandfather's hair. Hahaha, don't tell me you want to check his DNA?"
F * * k, does this girl have to be so honest?
Li Mengqi was instantly speechless, her lips moved as if she wanted to speak. However, she only heard Li Yunfan asking her curiously, "Aunt, what's DNA?"
"DNA is —"
Li Mengqi was stunned, she wanted to find the safest answer to make him lie to her, but at this moment, a deep male voice came from behind her. It was so melodious, "What a coincidence, I actually bumped into you guys here."
"Oh, Max!"
Li Mengqi lifted her head and saw that Fang Menglin had already run over, her face full of joy, "Why are you here too?"
"I've just returned from London. What about you?"
"Oh, we too! I didn't expect us to be on the same plane, but it was such a coincidence that we didn't notice it for such a long time. "
Fang Menglin couldn't help wringing her hands.
"Heh —"
Lu Chenchen smiled without saying a word.
"It seems like we really have no fate!"
At this point, Fang Menglin felt a bit depressed.
"If there really was no fate, then we wouldn't have met here."
Lu Chenchen squinted his black eyes, which were filled with a gentle smile. His gaze stayed on Fang Menglin for a second, then he glanced at Li Mengqi who was standing behind her, "This child is so cute, he looks pretty much like you."
"Oh, really? This is my big brother's son! "
Li Mengqi nodded and used her hand to caress Fan Fan's face, urging him, "Fan Fan, quickly call him Uncle Lu!"
Li Yunfan raised his head and saw Lu Zhichen looking at him expectantly. His star-like eyes seemed to contain a giant magnet, pulling him forward.
"Uncle, are you the God of Moonlight?"
Li Yunfan walked in front of Lu Kuchen, his bright eyes overflowing with color.
"You know me?"
Lu Chenchen did not expect that even a five-year-old child would recognize him. His thin and pretty lips unconsciously hooked up into a bewitching smile.
"Of course, there are posters of you everywhere in Auntie Fang Menglin's room, and she keeps talking about how you're not going to marry her."
"Ayaya, Li Yunfan, don't spout nonsense. When did I say that?"
This stinking brat, couldn't he make up for it with a blade?
Fang Menglin was so embarrassed that she wanted to find a hole to hide in.
"Aunt, am I lying?"
Li Yunfan feigned innocence as he turned his head to look at his aunt, who was smiling so much that her face was curved. He could not help but grin, looking especially pink-lipped.
Lu Chenchen did not say anything, but stared fixedly at this little shota of the strange Elves. In his heart, a strange thought flashed through his mind. Without much thought, he squatted down in front of Li Yunfan and his tone became softer, "Uncle, can I hug you?"
The little shota tilted his head and looked towards his aunt. Seeing her nod, he couldn't help but squint and put his hand on Lu Zhichen's shoulder. Lu Zhichen chuckled and held him up.
At this moment, a black Mercedes-Benz arrived in front of them. Lu Zhichen sincerely suggested, "My nanny carriage is here. Where are you going? Take you to it?"
"Great. Kiki, let's get in the car. Max, thank you! "
It was rare to get close to a male God, so how could Fang Menglin let this chance go? Without waiting for Li Mengqi's approval, she had already handed her luggage to the driver of the car and got on first.
Seeing the situation, Li Mengqi could only smile gratefully at Lu Zhichen and sit down with Li Yunfan.
After the car started up, the lively Fang Menglin quickly found a topic: "Max, this season's advertisement for Thinking. You and Qiqi are partners. My family's Qiqi isn't very experienced, so please take her along."
"Heh, it'll be alright if your true self comes out as host Li."
Lu Chenchen smiled. His eyes that were like ink looked towards Li Mengqi with a profound gaze that contained complicated emotions.
She did not pay any attention to their conversation. When she was done, she raised her head and heard Lu Jingchen's voice, which was as warm and mellow as chocolate, ring out, "Leader Li, it's said that we have a kissing scene. I wonder if it will cause any problems for you?"
Boom — —
He asked with a light tone, but Li Mengqi felt a burning sensation on her cheeks, making her feel extremely awkward. She quickly put away the uneasiness in her eyes and was about to reply in a very official manner when her cellphone in her bag rang. It was her big brother calling.
Thinking that Li Jianzhong had called to ask if they had returned, Li Mengqi quickly picked up and smiled, "Brother, we got off the plane. We will be home soon."
"Qiqi —"
Li Jianzhong's slightly hoarse voice came from the radio waves. Li Mengqi's heart trembled for no reason as a bad premonition flashed through his mind. She heard him continue, "Xu Huohui has met with an accident, come over here!"
Xu Hui's body exploded in a baby!
This news was like a bomb, causing the entire police station to be unable to calm down. Almost everyone wanted to strip off Officer Shen's skin, especially those young police officers who had a good impression of Xu Hui. They even threatened to send Officer Shen to jail.
Li Mengqi's mood was also incredibly heavy.
After receiving Li Jianzhong's call, she entrusted Fan to Fang Menglin's care. He took a taxi to the police station.
At that time, when Xu Huihuan had just finished recording the statement and saw Li Mengqi, her nose turned sour, she threw herself into her arms and started crying bitterly.
"Don't cry, Sister Yi will definitely help you!" I believe the police will seek justice for you! "
At this moment, Li Mengqi's eyes also unconsciously became moist. Any girl that encountered this kind of situation, no matter if it was her body or heart, would be greatly harmed, let alone a pure and beautiful young woman like Xu Huihan who had boundless expectations for the future.
Li Mengqi's heart clenched in pain, and she subconsciously hugged her tighter. Her eyes were filled with intense love.
"Yi'jie, what should I do? I'm already dirty! "
That's right, she was no longer pure. She was becoming more and more distant from Li Si r. She had no other choice but to pursue her own happiness …
"Come on, Sister Yi will accompany you home. First, take a shower and have a nap, okay?"
Li Mengqi lightly patted her shoulder. Normally, she was good at talking, but at this moment, she couldn't find the right words to say.
She didn't know what to say to ease Xu Hui's pain. She only knew that the current Xu Hui would need a warm embrace the most. If Big Brother couldn't give it to her, then let her take its place, even though it was far from enough …
"En!" Under Li Mengqi's gentle persuasion, Xu Hui nodded and agreed.
"Take her back in my car."
Li Jianzhong walked over and handed Li Mengqi a car keys.
Li Mengqi looked at her big brother with a complicated expression. She wanted to say something but forcefully held back her words. In the end, she could only take the key from his hand and support Xu Hui as they walked out of the police station.
Along the way, Xu Hui was silent. Li Mengqi occasionally observed the expression on her face and saw that her eyes were empty, looking extremely lonely and helpless. She silently sighed in her heart and couldn't help but resent the money lender.
[What a bastard. He actually tortured a girl like this?]
A man like that should be dealt with by the law!
About half an hour later, the car stopped in front of the Xu family's residence.
Just as the two of them got off the car, a figure suddenly flashed in front of them. Li Mengqi didn't even have time to react before she heard a "pa" sound, followed by a crisp slapping sound —
She subconsciously turned her head, and saw an old man in his seventies aggressively standing in front of Xu Hui Gou. The palm that he had just flung out was still in the air and had not been withdrawn, and Xu Hui Geng was holding onto half of his face in a wronged manner. His clear almond eyes were currently filled with grievance, as well … He couldn't believe it.
Li Mengqi was obviously confused as well, completely not expecting such a thing to happen. She was stunned for a moment, and quickly recovered. Just as she was about to open her mouth, she heard Xu Hui Qing timidly call out, "Grandfather —"
"Shut up!" How dare you come back, you rotten thing? It's fine if you don't die on the outside. We of the Xu Clan don't have a granddaughter like you, who would lose face! "
Old Master Xu's voice was cold and ruthless. It was like a sharp blade that stabbed deeply into Xu Hui's heart. Of course, it also pierced deeply into Li Mengqi's heart.
She never thought that such a thing would happen to Xu Hui, the only thing that greeted her at home was not the comfort of her family, but instead a palm full of reprimand. Li Mengqi's heart trembled, and a sorrowful feeling quickly overflowed from her chest, before finally transforming into a deep anger — —
"Old Master Xu, you're going too far!"
"Where did this girl come from?"
Old man Xu glared at Li Mengqi with an unfriendly expression, coldly snorting, "I'm teaching my own granddaughter a lesson, what does it have to do with you?"
"The honored tutor is lecturing his granddaughter, I indeed have no right to interfere. But is this what a grandfather should do? For something like this to happen to Little Warm, you don't have to understand how to comfort her and instead, use all your strength to hit her. Isn't that a bit too inappropriate? "
In her opinion, the old man in front of her right now was someone who was bullying her family, and what she hated the most in her life was this kind of person who bullied the weak, cold-blooded and heartless, even if the other person was an old man!
"You're just a little kid with the smell of milk. What do you know?"
Old Xu was so angry by her that he puffed his beard and glared at her. He turned his head and ordered Xu Huiqing, "You, immediately go to the police station and resolve this case. Obediently marry Officer Shen, otherwise —"
"Old Master Xu, did I hear wrong?" After such a thing has happened, you actually still want to marry Little Warm? This grandfather has really refreshed my three views! "
"You …"
In all her years of being in the shopping mall, Old Master Xu had almost never met someone who dared to make a ruckus like that, a young girl at that. For a moment, her old face was the color of a pig's liver, and she raised her palm in an attempt to slap Li Mengqi, but was stopped halfway by Xu Hui.
"Grandfather, it's impossible for me to drop the case!"
Xu Hui's voice was hoarse, but it carried an unshakable determination. It deeply infected Li Mengqi, but it also successfully angered Grandpa Xu.
He pulled back his hand angrily and the words that came out of his mouth were like a bolt of lightning, instantly splitting Xu Hui's heart into two halves.
"Good, very good! If you're not going to clear this case, then get out of the Xu Clan! "
"Grandfather!"
Xu Hui's body trembled. The tears that she had struggled to stop were now flowing down her face. Since she was young, her grandfather may not have doted on her very much, but he had never been so heartless and heartless towards her. Could it be that the lifelong happiness of her granddaughter really could not match up to the Xu family's reputation?
She only wanted that bastard to be punished. Had she done something wrong?
Why did Grandpa do that to her?
Why...
She wanted to ask, but her throat seemed to be blocked. No matter how hard she tried, she was unable to say what she wanted to say.
"Such a cold home, I don't want to stay! "Xiao Wen, let's go with Yi'jie."
Li Mengqi could not stand it any longer, so she pulled Xu Huoyou towards the car.
At this time, Xu Huiqing was like a soulless doll, allowing Li Mengqi to take her away from the place where she had lived for over 20 years.
Old Man Xu did not stop them from leaving. He stood on the spot and watched as the carriage gradually moved further and further away. A complex light flashed through his deep eyes.
Suddenly, he picked up his cell phone and dialed the police station's number. Before the other party could say anything, he had already given the order in a low voice —
"Xu Hui's case, withdraw for me!"
After leaving the Xu family, Li Mengqi directly brought Xu Huiqing back to the small villa where she and her brother lived.
"Aunt, you're back!"
Li Yunfan was playing a game in the living room. Seeing her aunt open the door, he hurriedly ran over to hug her thigh and greeted his obediently, his eyeballs rolling in the air. He discovered that there was a beautiful auntie following right behind her aunt.
Xu Hui's mind was in a state of wandering, and she did not even notice Li Yunfan's existence, not to mention responding to him.
Seeing that, Li Mengqi caressed Fan's head and asked gently, "Baby, why are you alone at home? "Where's Auntie Fang Menglin?"
"Auntie Fang Menglin went to buy groceries. She said she would eat hotpot tonight." The little shota answered truthfully. Seeing that Xu Hui's expression was still indifferent, he could not help but ask, "Auntie, Auntie, are you unhappy?"
"Yes, Auntie is feeling a bit uncomfortable." "So, if you're a good girl, go play by yourself. Auntie will bring Auntie upstairs to rest first, okay?"
Li Mengqi lowered her head and kissed him on the cheek. Her eyes were filled with gentleness.
"Alright!"
Fan Fan nodded his head, then quickly ran away, leaving to play by the side.
After placing Xu Hui in the guest room, Li Mengqi returned to her room and found a set of clean clothes for her.
At this moment, Li Jianzhong called.
"How are you doing taking her home?"
Hearing her big brother's heavy voice, Li Mengqi couldn't help but inwardly sigh. After a moment of silence, she told him everything that had happened in the Xu Clan.
After Li Jianzhong heard this, he pondered for a moment before slowly opening his mouth, "The Xu family just called and asked for the case to be removed!"
"What?" This is too much! "
At this moment, Li Mengqi's tone was several times higher than before.
"Don't worry, we definitely won't agree. A scumbag like you should have been punished by the law for a long time! "
At this point, Li Jianzhong clenched his fists tightly, trying his best to suppress the rage in his heart. This time, they would do whatever it takes to bring Shen Qian to justice.
"…"
Li Mengqi bit her lip, but didn't say anything in response. At the moment, her mood was incredibly complicated.
Putting aside Qi Junhao, even if official Shen Qian treated her well, he still wouldn't be considered a bad person. He had helped his so many times. In Li Mengqi's heart, he was naturally very grateful and also felt that he wasn't as bad as the rumors said. Initially, she was worried that Little Warm would one day suffer a loss, but he didn't expect that he would actually use forced methods to take away a girl's innocence …
True, Minister Shen Qian and Qi Junhao were essentially the same type of people. Wasn't the first time she and Qi Junhao met, taken away by him in the face of danger? The difference between the two was that she loved him, while Xu Hui - hue loathed Officer Shen!
Thinking about Qi Junhao, Li Mengqi felt a sudden pain in her heart. For so many days, she had purposely ignored this name, purposely not remembering anything about him, but every night, every little thing that happened with him was like a movie playing in her mind again and again. It was abnormally clear, and also made her understand a fact —
She's finished!
He tragically discovered that even if he wasn't Jiang Yanxi, it would still be very difficult for her to remove the word "Qi Junhao" from her heart.
What should he do?
Was she really going to be like what Zidingsen had said, willing to be a double?
No, absolutely not!
"Qiqi —"
Li Jianzhong's call pulled Li Mengqi back from her thoughts. She took a deep breath and tried to suppress the pain in her heart as she replied while covering her heart, "Big brother, I'm listening!"
"During this period of time, you should keep an eye on her and try to persuade her!"
"Don't worry, big brother, I will!"
"Alright, then I'll be going now!"
After Li Jianzhong finished speaking, he quickly hung up.
Li Mengqi furrowed her brows, as she returned to the guest room where Xu Hui was staying with a heavy expression.
After knocking on the door a few times, she realized that there was no response, so she simply pushed the door open and walked in.
There was no one in the room!
Li Mengqi was shocked and hurriedly ran to the balcony. She only saw the frail Li Mengqi sitting on a rattan chair, blankly staring at the sky.
"Warm —"
She walked over and called out to her softly.
"Sister Yi!"
Xu Hui had finally responded, however, she had only called out to her, and then, she continued to look at the sky in a daze. Her weak appearance was reflected in Li Mengqi's eyes, just like a little bird with folded wings. She was so lonely and helpless.
Li Mengqi bit her lips as she sat down beside her. Seeing her in this state, it was as if countless ants had swallowed her heart, causing endless pain.
The two of them sat in silence until the sun set in the west. Only then did Xu Hui Wei slowly say, "Sister Yi, can you accompany me to find a house outside? "After what happened, I don't know how to face Li Sir!"
Xu Hui's warm voice carried a tinge of desolation, causing Li Mengqi's heart to fill with grief.
It was due to her inconsiderate attitude that she ignored the affection Xu Hui had for her elder brother. Who would be willing to let her lover see her in such a miserable state?
Big brother, oh big brother, if you knew that she was infatuated with you, how would you feel? If you knew that her accident happened because of you, how would you blame yourself?
His small hand pulled on her sleeve, looking at her with his slightly red and swollen eyes, and said with a begging tone: "Yi jie, promise me, you'll never tell Li sir of my feelings for him!"
