Chapter 333: Chapter 334 the old man was seriously ill

At the Li family home.

The housekeeper had been pacing around the living room since early in the morning, clutching her phone tightly in her hand. She had been in a state of indecision the whole time.

Xu Wanwan happened to see this scene when she came downstairs. She could not help but frown. “Housekeeper Zhou, what happened?”

“Miss Xu...”the housekeeper turned around and said with a troubled expression, “There’s something I don’t know if I should tell director Li.”

Xu Wanwan’s heart inexplicably became nervous. “It’s nothing. Tell me what happened first.”

“Old Master Li is seriously ill.”

The butler sighed deeply. “The old residence called this morning. I heard that Old Master Li is sick and bedridden... but director Li is so busy working abroad. If we let him come back at this time, all our efforts will be wasted.”

“How can this be? What illness does the old man have? Why hasn’t he been sent to the hospital?”

The housekeeper looked at Xu Wanwan as if he had told her everything. He just shook his head and kept sighing.

Xu Wanwan stood rooted to the ground.

If it was just a normal illness, the hospital would definitely be able to treat it.

Her heart suddenly ached. If Li Jingran found out about this while he was abroad, he would definitely not have the heart to work.

In another half a month, he would be able to finish his work and return to the country. If he stopped during this period of time, everything he had done before would have been in vain.

......

Others might not know about Li Jingran’s difficulties, but she knew it very well.

Xu Wanwan took a deep breath and maintained a calm attitude. “I won’t tell Li Jingran about this for now. I’ll go and visit the old man on his behalf.”

Housekeeper Zhou nodded. “To be honest, the old master also has the same intention.”

Xu Wanwan pushed all the arrangements that day and rushed to the Li family’s old house after buying the gifts.

The atmosphere in the house was particularly gloomy and depressing. The servants were cleaning the yard with their heads lowered. When they walked in, the main house was empty.

She was about to go upstairs when she heard a cold voice behind her —

“Who told you to come?”

Xu Wanwan turned around and saw mother Li’s Haggard face. Her eyes paused. “Auntie, I heard that Uncle Li is sick, so I specially –”

“Our Li family doesn’t welcome you. You’d better leave quickly!”Mother Li’s attitude was very tough, and her face was full of unwelcome. “Don’t make me chase you away in disgust.”

Xu Wanwan’s body stiffened slightly as she held the thing in her hand.

She forced out a smile. “Auntie, I don’t have any bad intentions. Li Jingran is very busy overseas. I just want to take his place to visit uncle.”

“What right do you have to take my son’s Place?”Mother Li’s face was already cold, and her voice became even darker when she spoke.

Xu Wanwan pursed her lips slightly. “I know I don’t have the right, but this is also a token of my appreciation.”

As she spoke, she quietly placed the gift box in her hand at the corner of the coffee table.

Mother Li snorted coldly and immediately said to the maid, “Throw these things out.”

Xu Wanwan’s heart skipped a beat. She still managed to keep a smile on her face as if nothing had happened.

“Auntie, since you don’t Welcome Me, I Won’t spare you. Come and visit uncle in two days.”Xu Wanwan straightened her back a little as she said this and turned to leave.

“Stop.”Mother Li suddenly called out to her.

Xu Wanwan stopped in her tracks. “Aunty, is there anything else you want to see me about?”

Mother Li walked towards her step by step, her eyes filled with coldness. Suddenly, she raised her hand and slapped her face.

Slap!

The crisp sound of the slap echoed in the air. Xu Wanwan did not expect it at all. She took a few steps back and almost crashed into the wall.

“You came here today to show off, right?”Mother Li narrowed her eyes and said in an imposing manner, “Don’t think that you can get our approval just because you seduced my son.”

“Li Jingran’s father’s illness is definitely related to you! If you have any conscience, get out of the Li family as soon as possible. We Don’t care about your hypocritical visit.”

Xu Wanwan’s entire face turned red and swollen, and every breath she took was filled with pain.

Her brain buzzed for a while, and her eyes were filled with tears as she tried hard not to shed them.

“Auntie.”

“I know you don’t like me,”she said in a tense voice. “But I promised Li Jingran that I would wait for him to come back.”

Mother Li’s expression suddenly changed. “Don’t you dare act like a tiger in front of me! Get lost!”

Xu Wanwan quickly tidied up her hair and tried her best to remain calm as she prepared to leave.

Just as she was about to leave, the sound of high heels came from upstairs.

Zhou Lin walked down and looked at Xu Wanwan’s swollen side profile with a carefree expression. She was secretly happy.

She walked up to mother Li and pretended not to know. “Auntie, why is little Xu Here?”

“Hmph, I chased her away. Our Li family doesn’t welcome people like her.”

Looking at mother Li’s hateful attitude, Zhou Lin felt extremely happy.

Her eyes hid a hint of scheming. “Auntie, Jingran is very busy overseas. If Little Xu lets it slip, it won’t be good for Jingran’s work.”

“If she dares to say another word, I’ll break her mouth!”Mother Li said angrily. Her voice was loud enough to reach Xu Wanwan’s ears.

Xu Wanwan walked to the door and suddenly stopped. Thᴇ link to the origin of this information rᴇsts in novelenglish.net . Fɪre - novelenglish.net . bin

A mocking smile appeared on her face. “Auntie, I’m not as insensible as you think.”

With that, she raised her head and left the place quickly.

It was as if if she stayed any longer, she would be hurt even more.

She was also afraid of those curses and accusations.

But for the sake of Li Jingran, she had to come and see Old Master Li.

After returning from the old house, the housekeeper saw the marks on Xu Wanwan’s face and asked tentatively, “Miss Xu... are you okay?”

“I’m fine.”Xu Wanwan shook her head and said lightly, “I didn’t see Old Master Li. I’ll go again in two days.”

The housekeeper looked at the marks on her face and fell silent.

After a long time, he said hesitantly, “Why don’t we tell director Li about this?”

“Forget it.”Xu Wanwan thought of mother Li’s warning today and lowered her eyes to hide her loneliness. “I’ll visit him on his behalf. I’ll go every day.”

That way, when he returned to China, he wouldn’t resent her for hiding it.

That night, when Xu Wanwan received a call from Li Jingran, she was in the bathroom, applying ice to the swelling on her face.

It was early in the morning overseas.

However, Xu Wanwan could see the Moon hanging under the night sky through the window.

After chatting for a while, Li Jingran could tell that there was something wrong with the girl’s tone. “What’s wrong with you?”

Xu Wanwan was slightly stunned. She looked at herself in the mirror, who did not look well, and shook her head in a daze.

“It’s nothing. There was a small problem at work today. But it’s just a small matter. I’ve already solved it myself.”

After she said that, she seemed to be worried that the man would continue to ask her questions, so she quickly changed the topic. “By the way, how have you been recently? Did you manage your work abroad well?”

Li Jingran listened to the soft voice of the girl on the phone and chuckled. “You’re so concerned about me?”
