Li Xuelan said, "Ye Han, you are now in charge of the Li Family's business. When we expand our commercial footprint, you should provide some of your own ideas and opinions, shouldn't you?"
Li Yehan: "Your business ideas are different from mine, so I can't give you good advice."
Li Xuelan: "Are you saying that your business is bigger and we can't compare?"
Li Tianyi: "Ye Han, even if the business we manage for the Li Family isn't as good as yours, you shouldn't humiliate us like that, right? We're all family, why speak ?"
He Yunlai acted as a mediator: "Everyone calm down, Ye Han surely doesn't mean it that way."
He Jingjing and He Sen didn't speak; the adults' matters were something they stayed out of for now, observing the situation silently.
Li Tianhong noticed the tension and joined in, saying, "Aunt, don't be angry, Ye Han surely doesn't mean it that way."
"Whether he means it or not, everyone knows clearly," Li Xuelan said indifferently.
Li Yehan stood up: "Since you all want to discuss important matters, Qiaoqiao and I won't interrupt. It's time for grandfather's check-up, Qiaoqiao and I need to go."
Li Yehan took Nan Qiao's hand and pulled her up: "Qiaoqiao, grandfather is waiting for you, don't waste time."
Li Yehan left with Nan Qiao, seeming as if he was too overbearing, forcing Nan Qiao to endure without a voice and no speaking rights.
Li Xuelan was furious; she didn't expect Li Yehan to be so cold, showing no face to her.
Li Xuelan was livid; Li Tianhong wiped the sweat on his forehead, explaining for Li Yehan: "Ye Han is concerned about his grandfather, and Qiaoqiao is the doctor responsible for his grandfather's condition. When it's time, she must go to the hospital, it's very tiring."
He Yunlai laughed and asked, "I didn't expect Miss Nan Qiao to be so skilled in medical techniques at such a young age."
Li Tianyi: "It's said that Nan Qiao's medical skills are excellent, so my father's condition is managed by her, including the doctors treating my father—they are all her good friends."
Li Xuelan's complexion was complicated, contemplating these matters.
"The two of them are responsible for my elder brother's condition; when he recovers isn't it all up to them? Are the other Li Family members too indecisive?"
Li Tianhong explained, "Qiaoqiao's mentor is Mr. Tang Helin, and you all know Old Tang's medical skills, so Qiaoqiao is the most suitable choice."
Li Tianhong appeared proud, Li Tianyi couldn't bear to watch.
Li Tianhong must be a masochist!
He gets happy when he's abused.
When not abused, he's unhappy.
Li Yehan didn't look directly at him, yet he helped explain, it's simply sick!
Li Tianyi couldn't take it anymore, he spoke up, "Brother, you're truly a good father. Ye Han treats you like that, yet you're so tolerant; not many people in the world could do this."
Mei Tian Sha Zi: "Brother is a compassionate father."
Li Xuelan: "Tianhong, you're now being controlled tightly by Ye Han and Nan Qiao; isn't that not very good? Ye Han and Nan Qiao aren't married yet, right? I haven't heard from my brother about Ye Han's marriage. They're not married, yet Nan Qiao attends our Li Family meetings, isn't that inappropriate?"
"Aunt, you're unaware. Ye Han and Qiaoqiao are married, they have registered, they're legal spouses. For our family meeting, how could she not attend?"
"Why haven't they held a wedding?" Could it be that the Li Family doesn't value Nan Qiao and doesn't want to give her a grand wedding?
If the Li Family hosts a wedding, they'd surely spend lavishly!
It's not like the Li Family is short of money.
Apparently, they still don't want to give Nan Qiao this honor.
Li Xuelan thought she finally found some ground to counterattack, but Li Tianhong poured cold water over her, leaving her speechless and icy.
"Ye Han wants to have a wedding, but Qiaoqiao doesn't want one. My father doesn't dare to speak up, fearing Qiaoqiao might refuse to register in anger. That Qiaoqiao agreed to register with Ye Han relieved our entire family."
How can the men in the Li Family be so humble?
Li Xuelan's husband, son, and daughter were all shocked by Li Tianhong's words.
Could such a thing really happen?
He Jingjing managed to speak with difficulty: "Nan Qiao doesn't want a wedding?"
He Sen chuckled, "There's such a unique girl in the world, really interesting."
Li Xuelan glared at He Sen, hoping he'd be more restrained.
"Aunt, you're unaware, ever since Ye Han met Qiaoqiao, his temper has improved, he's smiled more, and knows how to care for people. Before Qiaoqiao, hardly could he sit in the same space with me and talk, it's absolutely impossible."
Li Tianhong got more excited as he spoke, his words were all praises for how understanding Nan Qiao was, how fortunate Nan Qiao was, how Nan Qiao was a good luck charm, and the great changes Nan Qiao brought to Li Yehan.
Li Xuelan could hear it so much that her ears were fatigued, she couldn't listen anymore.
Not just her, Li Tianyi and Mei Tian Sha Zi wanted to unabashedly clean their ears.
Absolutely annoyed.jpg
Li Ning and Li Chengyan sat nearby in silence.
Before coming, they were instructed to speak less and not to talk much.
Especially during such sensitive times, they had to be cautious with their words!
So today, they were particularly quiet.
Li Tianyi said, "Brother, Aunt came back and she's tired, let them rest well, let's not disturb them."
Li Tianhong: "Aunt, which hotel are you staying at?"
Li Xuelan said unhappily, "There are so many rooms at home, why would I stay at a hotel?"
Li Tianyi and Mei Tian Sha Zi exchanged a glance, both stunned by Li Xuelan's daring move.
Li Xuelan staying at home?
Meanwhile, Uncle Fu was reporting the situation to Li Yehan and Nan Qiao.
"Ms. Li Xuelan and the master's relationship isn't great; back then, the old master gave the Li Family business for the master to manage, and Li Xuelan was quite upset, feeling the family gave her too little compared to the master. She even said the old master favored sons over daughters, causing quite a dispute. It's been ten years without contact, her sudden return surprises me."
Li Yehan: "It seems she plans to live here."
Uncle Fu: "It appears they're here for the master's assets."
Uncle Fu narrowed his eyes, he wouldn't easily agree to such things!
The master isn't dead yet, and Li Xuelan comes for assets? Such an ugly display!
Nan Qiao: "Uncle Fu, let Ye Han handle it. Grandfather isn't awake yet; if you handle these things, her attitude might be poor."
As a host and a servant, Li Xuelan certainly wouldn't care about Uncle Fu, she might even insult him verbally.
Uncle Fu laughed, "Miss Nan Qiao, thank you for considering me. Neither you nor Young Mr. Ye Han need worry, I have my ways to make them behave honestly." Tʜe source of this ᴄontent ɪs NoveI~Fire.net
Uncle Fu is an experienced person, he's seen many storms.
Uncle Fu continued, "Young Mr. Ye Han, for now, don't break relations with them. The master's matters, I'll handle well; won't let those people take advantage of the master! If I can't handle it, I'll ask you for help, is that okay?"
Uncle Fu didn't want to trouble Li Yehan and Nan Qiao.
With Uncle Fu's insistence, Li Yehan and Nan Qiao had no choice but to let him proceed.
If he couldn't manage, they'd step in.
