Chapter 229 - Jie will kill the rumors she has created on her own.

After getting the strict orders from her grandfather, Lifen went inside and walked straight to her room. After getting freshed, she obediently made her way towards her grandfather's study.

Reaching the door she knocked only to hear the harsh acceptance of her request. She pushed the door open and walked timidly inside looking at her grandfather who was pacing back and forth behind his desk.

His eyebrows were still furrowed indicating that he was still mad at her.

She didn't made any noise nor made any eye contact with the old man. She just walked straight to the sofa that was placed at the side of the side of the room.

She has prepared herself to pretend as innocent as she could. Her innocence and a temporary obedience was the only way that could let her escape from the the old man's wrath today

"How audacious! That boy has got guts but no brains", Li Liaoyuan snarled when saw his granddaughter sitting obediently on sofa while going through the magazine left on the table.

"He has the guts to challenge me. Hmph!! He was saying that 'whether I like it or not, he will make his words true!' Like hell I will let him do that. He is still young and don't know me yet. I have been low profile but doesn't made him more experienced and powerful. What does he thinks of himself?" the old man was so infuriated that Lifen thought that it would surely have adverse effects on his health

She looked at her grandfather and said softly, "Grandpa! Please calm down. So much anger is not good for your health and body", she stood up and walked to her grandfather.

At this moment, there was a knock on the door. The old man didn't bothered to give any response to the call at the door.

Lifen sighed and helplessly said, "Butler Grandpa! please come in".

The butler came in with a tray that had a set of tea set. He placed it on the table near the sofa, gently bowed to the old man and then left the room, closing the door behind him.

Lifen looked at her grandfather, who has put on a grumpy face that could make the many big businessmen scared. She gently cupped his aged face and then said gently, "Grandpa! please don't get so mad. You need to calm down now. Okay?"

She said as she tried to calm down her angry grandfather which seemed to be working. She then linked her arms around his and said, "Now come. I have requested Butler grandpa to prepare chamomile tea for you. It will ease your nerves. You know how scared I get looking you like this?"

She said as if she was trying to coax a two year old kid. And she was no wr9ng there. The old and children gets same as the time passes. The tricks that works for children will have quite heavy chances to word on the oldies too.

Lifen made the old man sit on the sofa, then, prepared a cup of tea for him.

When she had confirmed that her grandfather was no more angry as he was before. She tried to break the ice of the most important topic.

"Grandpa, you know I am so confused with your behavior towards Deming. He is not our rival in business but it still seems like you hate him the most. What did he do to make my grandpa so mad at him", she asked as she dipped her gaze on the magazine in her hand.

Li Liaoyuan merely stopped his action of sipping tea and looked at his granddaughter who has become so smart in ways of easing his anger.

He exhaled deep breath and said calmly, "LiLi, I am really serious about this. I want you to stop seeing that bratty boy. He is not suitable for you. How can you believe in him again? Haven't you got your lesson?"

Now getting his words were much clear, Lifen understood where the things went wrong. His concern for her made him hate Deming to such extent.

But she never thought that her past with Deming was known by her grandfather too.

She looked at her grandfather defeatedly, "Grandpa, you are taking him wrong. It's not like what you are thinking..."

"LiLi, do listen to grandfather's words. It's in your benefit", he tried to make her understand.

Lifen chuckled lightly as she said, "Grandpa, you still don't know many things. He is not like that. His purpose has never been to hurt me. The time and misunderstandings made him like that. It not his fault to start with. It was me who is responsible for my heartbreak before "

The old man quickly averted his eyes. He somewhere felt guilty for his granddaughter.

Though Lifen thinks her grandfather doesn't know about her past stories but it is her who doesn't know what her grandfather has done tor her safety.

Being at the loss of reasons, the old man quickly added, "LiLi, stop blaming yourself for everything for defending him. How are you going to reasons out his stories with that girl, Long Jie that's flowing in the air of the whole country ?"

Lifen got no words to defend now. It's not that she doesn't has the reasons to counterattack her grandfather's words, but she knew it was the place where Deming is being wrong.

And not to mention that she too didn't like those stories. Though she knew that all the talks going on in the society are the false ones but still it made her heart drop. Those stories has often made her feel suffocated in open air.

Li Liaoyuan has noticed the change in Lifen's expressions. He didn't wanted to make her feel like that. But often to cure an illness, you have to taste bitter medicine.

He again continued, "LiLi, remember one thing the man should know when to stop the approaches of the woman around him. He must be resolute towards the one whom he considers most important and not look for the reasons to defend his actions for supporting the other woman who are after him. Today or tomorrow it will sure lead to misunderstandings that will become unhealthy for a relationship ".

"I know you like him but you can't defend his actions all time. It's better to stop before things go more complex and awful", he advised her wishing for her good.

Lifen stood up and then said slowly, "Okay grandfather, it's getting late. I am feeling a little tired and sleepy. I think I should go to take a little rest first."

Li Liaoyuan nodded to her as he has caught the pain in her eyes which were getting slowly and slowly heavy with tears. Her pained expression pained him too. So he let her go and let her emotions get a little calm.

Lifen walked her way to the door when suddenly turned around to look at her grandfather.

Her eyes was full of determination as she said, "Don't worry Grandpa. The rumors are rumors and they are bound to get ended. As for Deming, I won't be as easy as before. But I have a request, give me a chance with this relationship. And about Ms.Long Jie, she will kill these rumors she created on her own and that too very soon. I will make her do that".
