Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Li Guihan looked around in satisfaction and sat down.
Gu Mu had followed Li Guihan for many years and knew his boss very well. Knowing that he was in a good mood now, he stepped forward and asked, “CEO Li, now that you’ve shown up today, we won’t be able to hide the fact that you are the behind-the-scenes CEO of Qingfeng International. As for the Li family…”
Hearing this, Li Guihan gave a playful smile. “The Li family won’t know about it. Later, you are to issue an internal memo to instruct everyone that they are not allowed to reveal what happened today.”
“Do you still want to continue hiding it?” Gu Mu had thought that Li Guihan’s return to the country this time was part of a showdown.
“Do you think that if I reveal my identity now, my brothers will behave themselves? In order to let them live without pressure, I will continue to play the part of the Li family’s ignorant seventh brother. It’s unfortunate that the old master is in poor health, isn’t it? It’s better if he has less to worry about.” Li Guihan fiddled with the small ornaments that were displayed on the table, as he spoke in a calm tone of voice.
Naturally, Gu Mu was very clear about the affairs of the Li family. Wealthy and noble families were usually very large, with many members. Once more people were involved, the family assets would inevitably become the biggest problem. It would lead to open as well as secret conflicts.
Li Guihan had a reputation for being ignorant and incompetent, and could not do anything without the help of his brothers. If not for the old man’s critical illness this time, Li Guihan would not have returned to the country so quickly. In addition, Li Guihan was filial and had endured for so many years. Naturally, this meant that another few days would not be a problem. “I understand. In that case, should I continue to represent the group in the future?”
“Yes.” Li Guihan nodded.
As the two of them were talking, Gu Mu’s phone rang. He glanced at the message and surprise flashed across his face. Then, he put down the phone and carefully looked at Li Guihan’s expression as he reported, “The identity of the woman last night has been investigated. Her name is Luo Youyou. She’s also the fiancee of Lu Yiran, the only son of the sister of the first lady of the Li family, Lu Yiran’s fiancée.”
Hearing this, Li Guihan’s eyes paused. So, she was Lu Yiran’s fiancée? This matter had just become interesting.
At the same time, Luo Youyou had wandered the streets until nightfall. Her legs were weak, and her stomach was growling with hunger. She took out her phone and looked. More than ten hours had passed since morning, and her father still had not contacted her… Now that he had another daughter, did he not want her anymore?
The despair at being abandoned tore at Luo Youyou’s heart. She did not want to go home. She did have a friend, but she was still on vacation abroad, so Luo Youyou was currently completely alone. She raised her head and saw Qingfeng Hotel. Without thinking, she immediately went in. She wanted to rest, but it seemed like the heavens had other plans for her. As soon as she entered the hotel lobby, she encountered Shen Wenqi and her mother, who both looked excited to see her!
When Shen Wenqi spotted Luo Youyou, she lowered her head to say something to Shen Jinhan. Then, she walked up to Luo Youyou and said, “What a coincidence, did you come here to eat?”
Luo Youyou was already feeling powerless and did not want to bother with this shameless woman. Using the term ‘best friend’ to describe Shen Wenqi was now just an insult. But how could Shen Wenqi let go of this opportunity to provoke her?
“You didn’t know this, right? Father invited me and my mother to eat here and booked the most luxurious private room to welcome us back into the Luo family. Oh, and by the way, Yiran will definitely be coming by later as well,” Shen Wenqi said with a smile.
Luo Youyou thought about her father’s complete disregard for her and how he wanted to entertain Shen Jinhan and her daughter now. She could not help but feel uncomfortable, so she coldly said to Shen Wenqi, “Get lost.”
“Is this too difficult to bear? Do you feel like cursing me? I sincerely advise you to control yourself. Otherwise, I’d be really worried about your future. You know, I feel a little sorry for you, Luo Youyou. You’re just too weak. I stole your fiancé so easily. Now, you don’t even have a home anymore. Tsk tsk…” Shen Wenqi continued to ridicule her. However, what she did not expect was that Luo Youyou did not show any reaction this time. Did she just want her to let her off and allow her to leave?
There was a cold smile on Shen Wenqi’s mouth as she stepped forward again, “Luo Youyou, don’t you want to know why Yiran chose me and gave up on you? Did you really think that the incident with the car in the park between him and me was merely an accident? I deliberately let you see it so that you would become sad and disappointed. I wanted you to take the initiative of leaving Yiran and going to the bar to get drunk.”
Luo Youyou stopped in her tracks. She really had not understood why Lu Yiran had suddenly changed his mind without any warning! It was not that she wanted to brag. However, all men were visual animals. In terms of appearance and temperament, Shen Wenqi could not be compared to her. She also did not believe that it was due to some kind of spiritual beauty that made Lu Yiran choose Shen Wenqi instead. That was too ridiculous.
Seeing that Luo Youyou had finally reacted, Shen Wenqi let out another smug laugh. “It’s because I told Lu Yiran that you slept with many men behind his back. I told him that you even had an abortion and it was my mother who had taken care of you. I didn’t expect that he would actually believe me, but that night, he pounced on me. Lu Yiran may look thin and weak, but his strength isn’t bad. After that night in the car, I almost couldn’t stand up. It’s a pity that you will never have a chance at such a good man again.”
