Chapter 251 Betting that he will soften his heart

Although I was prepared for it, this news still hit me with a headache.

That villa is a property under Li Ze's name. The person who designed it with Wu Dongmei to trick me into taking banned drugs was not someone else, but it turned out to be my uncle?!

In terms of the shamelessness of human nature, Li Xing has never disappointed people!

After hanging up the phone, I held the sink and tried to calm myself down.

At present, the biggest suspect that designs harm me is Li Xing, and he has sufficient motivation. So, is my previous suspicion of Jiang Jin really just a mistake in subjective judgment?

Is it really just a coincidence that Qiao Xu would recommend Wu Dongmei to me?

I still had doubts in my heart, but the shouts sounded outside the door pulled back my thoughts.

"Ruan Shi? Are you in there? Are you okay?"

Perhaps seeing me inside for a long time, a hurried knock on the door sounded. Li Yunzhou confirmed my situation inside.

I responded and walked over quickly instinctively, my ankles didn't seem to hurt as much as before.

When Li Yunzhou opened the door, his worried face came into his eyes, "Are you okay? I thought you fell down inside."

His worries didn't seem to be acting at all, but I no longer trusted him.

He also wanted to take me back to the ward, but I pushed it away. I said lightly: "My ankle is fine, I can walk by myself."

So I walked in front, he followed behind, his arms slightly raised, as if protecting me who might fall at any time.

Back at the ward, thinking of Li Xing's design and Jiang Jin's pregnancy, I took a deep breath and spoke calmly with Li Yunzhou: "I want to talk to you about Xixi's problems."

A cold light flashed through Li Yunzhou's dark eyes. He had already seen through my thoughts, "The matter of Xixi staying in the old house is a deal between your mother and grandfather."

"This kind of transaction cannot be counted." I restrained my emotions, lowered my posture, and discussed with him in a slightly begging tone: "When you asked me to leave the divorce conditions, I don't want anything, just Xixi's custody. Now it's the same. I just ask you to help me return Xixi to me. Xixi and I will not get a share of everything from your Li family!"

"What's more, you and Jiang Jin will have your children soon. The two children were unable to do both. Let Xixi stay by my side. You live a happy life of three. We will not disturb each other, okay?"

I bet my last hope on Li Yunzhou's soft heart. I bet he would care about some old love. Seeing that I was so pitiful, I would bring Xixi back to me from Mr. Li.

But Li Yunzhou just shook his head helplessly and murmured to himself: "Xixi is my son, and I naturally hope he can live in a simple and happy environment. If you want to take Xixi away, why don't I think so? But in the current situation, many things, I can't help myself..."

My only hope was broken, and there was only a chill left in my heart.

Can't help yourself?

What a high-sounding excuse, it is actually that he doesn't want to help me.

After all, he is a member of the Li family. Xixi stays in the Li family and can help him compete for the property of the Li family. Naturally, he will not allow me to take Xixi away.

I looked at him with disappointment and said word by word: "Li Yunzhou, I don't have a long memory. I have been deceived by you so many times, but I still hope you can help me."

"I was wrong, I will not trust anyone in your Li family anymore."

I didn't want to hear him make any more excuses, and I left the hospital without thinking.

I stopped a car and wandered around the capital aimlessly, looking at the street lights and the crowds of people on the street, but it seemed that these had nothing to do with me.

The driver looked at me through the rearview mirror and asked helplessly: "Girl, we have been moving for an hour. Have you figured out where to go?"

Where to go?

In such a huge capital, I have no place to go.

Even if I am reluctant, Gu Nian Xixi is still in the old house of Li, so I can only report the address of the old house to the driver.

When I returned to the old house of Li, the Li family had already disbanded. Mr. Li was also discomfort and went back to the room to go to bed early, which saved me from the embarrassment of meeting him.

Xixi was nestled in my arms and told me the story the parent-teacher told him in the afternoon.

The voice came to an abrupt end, Xixi suddenly raised her head and looked at me, with a begging in her bright eyes, "Mommy, I want to eat the mung bean paste you made."

There is always no reason for a child's greed.

I smiled dotingly and gently scraped Xixi's nose, "Okay, mom will do it for you."

I went downstairs into the kitchen. When the domestic servant saw me, he felt a sarcastic expression in his tone: "Miss Ruan, you should not go into the kitchen less, so as not to make the master think that we are lazy and poorly serving us. What do you and the young master want to eat, just tell us."

"I just made some mung bean paste. Xixi wanted to drink it. What you did was not suitable for him."

I threw this sentence off and washed beans in an orderly manner and soaked beans under the domestic servant's resentment...

Half an hour later, I returned to Xixi's room with the prepared mung bean paste. Xixi jumped up excitedly and wrote a kiss on my face.

"Mommy is so good! Mommy loves Xixi the most!"

Seeing Xixi enjoying her big mouthfuls, the sweetness in my heart was no less than the mung bean paste in this bowl.

Xixi had enough food and drank, and went to sleep with satisfaction. I took the bowl to the kitchen to clean, but unexpectedly heard gossip about domestic workers outside the kitchen.

"Has the chef of our old house been transferred by the master?"

"That's right, the chef and several servants who have worked in the old house for a long time were sent by the master to the villa where Miss Jiang lives."

My heart sank. It seems that Mr. Li already knows that Jiang Jin is pregnant. Even though he doesn't like Jiang Jin's background, he still wants to support Jiang Jin like a treasure for the sake of the child in Jiang Jin's belly.

Therefore, for Mr. Li, it doesn’t matter who Li Yunzhou’s wife is, the grandson of the Li family is what he cares about.

After seeing these clearly, my heart was cold and I became more determined to take Xixi away.

The next morning, I woke up from my sleep and the first thing I did when I opened my eyes was to look at Xixi beside me.

But today Xixi was a little abnormal. Her white and tender face was flushed, her breathing was a little rapid, her brows were tightly frowned, and she looked very uncomfortable.

"Xixi?!"

My heart suddenly sucked, and while trying to wake him up, I reached out to his forehead.

Hot! Very hot!

My mind buzzed, and I kept my remaining rationality. I walked downstairs quickly and was about to call a servant, but Mr. Li saw it and scolded him.

"This is the Li family, I'm so nervous that I don't even understand the rules?"

Mr. Li was obviously angry with me yesterday, but I didn’t have time to care about these things and said anxiously: “Xi Xi has a fever, and now her whole body is hot, so I need to ask a doctor.”
