Li Fuyou, hearing the voices, furrowed his brows tightly, his face extremely unsightly. Without needing to go over, he knew from the voice that it was his mother.
How had it all fallen apart so soon after he had left the Li Mansion just a few days ago?
"Young master." Hearing that it was his lady’s voice, Amo didn’t know whether to leave or stay, so he asked.
"Let’s stop here, we can go later," Li Fuyou indifferently uttered.
So, the carriage did not move, but instead stopped in the middle of the road.
At that moment, within the noisy crowd
The man kicked Mrs. Li’s stomach and cursed fiercely, "Get lost, don’t follow me anymore."
Mrs. Li clung to the man’s legs, refusing to let go, and sobbed, "You can’t be so heartless; after all these years with you, you can’t just abandon me!"
"Stop talking nonsense," the man said, and then kicked her again, showing no mercy, the ferocity clear on his face.
Mrs. Li continued to cry and scream, unconcerned with her image, "Over these years, I have given you so much silver, how can you treat me , ooh."
"Go find your son and stop bothering me; otherwise, you’ll regret it." The man then brutally kicked Mrs. Li’s stomach again, knocking her to the ground, before walking away from the crowd. Follow current novels on NoveI(F)ire.net
There Mrs. Li lay, holding her stomach, continuously crying and sobbing, "You can’t leave, I gave you all of the Li family’s assets, I have nothing left, ooh."
Mrs. Li was thus surrounded by the crowd, which pointed and gossiped about her.
"Isn’t that Mrs. Li from the Li Mansion?"
"She just said she’s been with that man for many years, but Mr. Li only passed away recently."
"That means Mr. Li has been cuckolded for a long while."
"Maybe that son of his isn’t even Mr. Li’s."
"She’s getting her just deserts now, that man doesn’t want her anymore."
"She’s past her prime and just another man’s concubine. It’s just the silver she had that he was after. Now that the Li family has fallen, there’s no silver to dig, of course, he’d ditch her; why would he keep her around?"
The crowd kept talking loudly, when suddenly Mrs. Li, like a madwoman, stood up and shouted at the crowd, "What are you saying about the Li family falling? The Li family won’t fall; we have so many restaurants, how could we fall? Stop spreading rumors!"
"Oh, Mrs. Li, are you still in the dark? The Dongfeng Restaurant was transferred to a new owner today; the Li family is already finished."
"What did you say? Repeat that," Mrs. Li, upon hearing this, frantically grabbed the person who spoke.
"Hey, what’s wrong with you?" The person rebuffed her sharply, shoving Mrs. Li back, causing her to fall to the ground again.
"The Li family is finished, and that inhumane son of yours might have already run away with the money from the sold restaurants at this moment."
Upon hearing this, Mrs. Li stumbled to her feet, "All of you get lost, just get lost!"
The crowd dispersed amidst her shoving and shouting, and Mrs. Li, looking up, saw Amo at the driver’s seat.
Her eyes lit up, and she ran towards the carriage. Upon opening the door, she indeed saw Li Fuyou sitting inside.
Her face, twisted with ferocity, no longer pretentious, she roared at Li Fuyou, "Li Fuyou, tell me, is what they’re saying true? Did the Li family change hands?"
