She Always Loves To Sleep

Chapter 424 Mr. Li: You take pleasure in others’ misfortune, right?

Li Jiu blinked her eyes, suppressed the astringency in her eyes, twitched the corners of her lips, and said, "Thank you for taking care of me over the years."

 After saying that, she stood up and bowed to Mr. Li.

Mr. Li turned his eyes away and couldn't bear to look at her.

Li Jiu lowered the look in her eyes and pretended to be nonchalant: "I am confessing to you now so that you can prepare yourself mentally so that you will not be hurt by anger."

Mr. Li suddenly snorted coldly: "Do you think I won't get angry now?"

　　　…”

“You **** girl, if you were really afraid that this old guy like me wouldn’t be able to handle it and would get angry, you shouldn’t have hid it from me in the first place!”

After saying that, he rolled his eyes at Li Jiu as if he was still angry, and cursed: "You little heartless one!"

 Li Jiu: “…”

Anyone who is not deaf can tell that his words are full of resentment, and he looks very angry.

Even so, Li Jiu coughed lightly and said, "You actually understand everything, so I'll leave first."

 After saying that, she turned around and left.

Unexpectedly, as soon as he stood up, Mr. Li stopped him: "Wait a minute."

Li Jiu turned back to look at him.

　　“You want to leave after saying half a word?”

Mr. Li looked at her with an unhappy expression: "You don't want to tell me the reason for coming to Li's house. I won't force you, but you have to tell me what you are going to do next."

Li Jiu was slightly surprised, "What are you..."

“You bastard!” Mr. Li was anxious. “Now only I know your identity. As long as it’s not made public, you have to call me grandpa!”

“…Yes, Grandpa.” Li Jiu twitched the corner of his mouth.

Mr. Li paused, calmed down the anger in his heart, and said calmly: "Tell me, what do you want to do?"

Li Jiu was silent for a few seconds, then sat back in front of Mr. Li, cleared his throat, and said slowly: "The Li family recently had a bid in Dongcheng..."

Before he finished speaking, Mr. Li raised his eyelids and glanced at her coolly, saying astonishingly: "Does MZ's actions during this period have anything to do with you?"

 Li Jiu: “…”

Li Jiu felt that despite the fact that the old man was usually so quiet, she seemed to have really underestimated him?

Even she admired this reaction speed.

Under Mr. Li's burning gaze, Li Jiu's eyes flashed and she had to admit: "It's me."

Mr. Li said oh, looked past her and elsewhere, and said with unclear meaning: "You are here for Ah Hong."

 Li Jiu: “Yeah”

"…" Mr. Li laughed softly, but his emotion was incomprehensible, "That's right, that traitor has always behaved like a **** that cannot be tolerated by nature, and he will be punished sooner or later."

Li Jiu frowned and looked at him worriedly, "Grandpa..."

Mr. Li waved his hands as if he didn't care at all, "It's okay. I already knew he would have this day. I'm just feeling a little emotional."

"Over the years, I have watched him embark on a path of no return. As a father, I did not stop him. It is my fault."

It can be said that Li Hong is in the situation he is in today because of a large part of his reasons.

 He is very incompetent as a father.

Li Jiu frowned even more and said in a deep voice, "Grandpa, whatever happens to Li Hong is his own fault and it's none of your business."

Mr. Li sighed: "Xiaojiu, you don't know, if it weren't for me back then -"

“If you hadn’t promised your wife back then that you would let Li Hong go no matter what happened, he wouldn’t have done so many wrong things, would he?”

Before Mr. Li could say the second half of his sentence, Li Jiu took it naturally.

Li Jiu sneered: "Grandpa, the essence of a scumbag is still a scumbag. Even if you let him go ten thousand times, he will never repent once."

　　　…”

Mr. Li paused for a long time and looked at her with a faint look in his eyes: "Now I'm a little curious about your background."

When Mrs. Li went there, even Li Hong and Li Chen were only in their teens. At that time, she was the only one with her and the housekeeper. No one knew what she said to him except the old housekeeper who was always with her.

 Ten years ago, the old housekeeper also retired and returned to his hometown. He has not been able to contact him in the past few years. Where did Li Jiu learn about this?

 Li Jiu: "Szhou, Mo family."

Mr. Li suddenly understood.

"The Mo family, that's right. I remember that Lao Xu had some friendship with the Mo family back then." The Lao Xu he mentioned was the old housekeeper back then.

Li Jiu lowered her eyes and decided to avenge the Shan family's mother and son. She used all her power to investigate and finally found out that the Li family's former housekeeper had contacts with the Mo family. Following the clues, she learned a lot about the Li family's past.

“The Mo family was once very powerful in Continent S, but in recent years it has declined a bit…”

Mr. Li raised his head and glanced at Li Jiu, humming softly: "I really don't know what the fuss is about."

Li Jiu’s eyes twitched, looking quite helpless.

“Ahem...nothing happened, it’s just that the head of the family is not doing his job properly.”

How could Mr. Li not understand? He said coldly: "That's right. It's not right for a good family owner to become someone's grandson, oh, granddaughter."

 Li Jiu: “…”

“I told you that when I asked you to take over the Li family, you would kill me, but it turned out that I didn’t care about it at all!”

 Li Jiu: “…”

"Even MZ listens to you, but you can't see that my good granddaughter is quite powerful."

 Li Jiu: “…”

Mr. Li became more and more angry as he talked, and the anger he had accumulated from just now surged into his heart. Finally, he said angrily: "You see me worrying about Mr. Li during this period, and you take pleasure in it, right?"

Li Jiu: “…Grandpa, I don’t have any conscience.”

Mr. Li: "Yes, you have no conscience."

 Li Jiu: “…”

Li Jiu: "..."

 Li Jiu: “………”

 “I really don’t…”

 “Well, you have no conscience.”

  OK.

 She chose to shut up.

Li Jiu sighed. She finally understood that if she didn't let the old man vent his anger today, she might not be able to leave the study.

　　Okay, let him fight, it will be fine once he has finished venting.

Seeing Li Jiu's expression of a broken jar, Mr. Li snorted coldly and asked, "Did I wrong you?"

"…No."

 “Then who can you show to me that you look like you are ready to die?”

Li Jiu: "Grandpa, you..." are somewhat unreasonable.

 “How am I?”

"…nothing."

Who could have made the old man angry first? She was wrong first and couldn't explain anything.

“Let me tell you, no matter which family you are the head of, no matter what you are going to do next, please let me know, do you understand?” Mr. Li frowned.

His own son knew that MZ might do something extreme if he was pressed so hard during this period.

Even if Li Jiu is able to solve it, he is not very reassured.

Mr. Li thought again and again, and the more he thought about it, the more unsure he became, "No, I'd better ask your uncle to keep an eye on it for you secretly."

He squinted his eyes and muttered to himself, completely unaware that the corners of Li Jiu's mouth had twitched slightly.

"…grandfather."

Mr. Li asked with a tigerish face: "What are you doing?"

 “Aren’t you worried that I will kill the Li family?”

 What is the concern about her that is implicit in this statement?

 “If it’s gone, just build another Li family. It’s not like my Li family can’t afford it.”
