All Novel Full Chapter 131 - Family
Li Nanchen's expression darkened slightly and he introduced in a cold voice, "He is my Second Uncle, Li Zhuo."
Wu Mei pretended to be ignorant and ran to his side in an exaggerated manner. She leaned over and reached out to hold Li Zhuo's arm, as if to help him stand up. However, her elbow was pressed against his broken ribs with some force as she said, "I'm sorry!"
"The situation was so chaotic that it was difficult to control. I accidentally injured you!"
Li Zhuo felt an unbearable pain shoot through him. Resentment and ruthlessness flashed across his eyes, but he quickly concealed them…
He pretended to wipe off the blood and dust on his suit lightly and pushed Wu Mei away.
Wu Mei was pushed away by him and deliberately kneed Li Zhuo's support point when he stood up. He swayed and fell heavily to the ground. His tailbone banged into the wooden stick pieces on the ground. With two cracking sounds, he let out a low wail as cold sweat broke out on his forehead…
In the blink of an eye, Li Zhuo had gone from a light injury to a serious one. However, Wu Mei was not to be blamed. He clenched his fists in frustration as he groaned inwardly…
Old Master Li came out of the bedroom in a wheelchair. When Li Zhuo saw him, he pointed at Wu Mei and said, "Old Master, how did the Li Family provoke the mafia and mercenaries? They're all here for this woman. She even wanted to hurt me just now! She definitely did it on purpose!"
"She's very dangerous…"
Wu Mei pretended to be innocent and harmless as she shook her head. She frantically waved her hands and explained, "I wanted to help Second Uncle stand up, but for some reason, he fell!"
Li Nanchen stepped in to defend her and said, "I saw it with my own eyes. Second Uncle fell by himself. It has nothing to do with Wu Mei."
Right from the start, Old Master Li already did not have a good impression of Li Zhuo, so he naturally believed Wu Mei and Li Nanchen's words. Frowning, he propped himself up with his walking stick and stood up. Pointing at the mess in the living room, he said, "Since Lass Mei and Nanchen said that, you must have accidentally stepped on something and slipped by yourself."
"After staying overseas for a long time, I can understand some if you have developed the bad habit of casually framing others."
"But since you're back in China, you have to control our temper…"
When Old Master Li looked at Wu Mei and Li Nanchen, he instantly changed to face them with a kind smile. He nervously tugged on her arm and asked, "Are you hurt?"
"Oh my, such a deep wound? It must be painful!"
Old Master Li's heart ached so much that his eyes welled up with tears. He raised his trembling hand wanting to treat her wound, but he was afraid that he would hurt Wu Mei, so he was somewhat helpless.
Wu Mei shook her head and helped him back onto the wheelchair. "It's just a flesh wound and will heal in a few days!"
Li Nanchen intimately held her arm and said to Old Master Li, "Grandpa, I'll take care of her. Don't worry."
Li Zhuo trembled with anger when he saw how much they loved each other just like a family. However, he could only suppress his emotions in silence.
As if sensing his scorching gaze, Old Master Li shifted his gaze onto him and asked in an unfriendly tone, "You said on the phone that you would return tomorrow. Why are you here tonight? Why did you come back early?"
Li Zhuo's expression changed slightly. He tidied his messy hair and looked at Li Nanchen as he said, "When I heard about Nanchen's death while I was overseas, I was in so much agony that I wanted to come back early to mourn, so that I could personally see him off…"
"There's no one in the family who can support the family. I wanted to help…"
Wu Mei crossed her arms and tilted her head to look at Li Zhuo's hypocritical expression. She could not help but retort, "You came all the way back here. Are you very disappointed to see that Li Nanchen isn't dead?"
Li Zhuo was shocked, but he tried his best to conceal it and said, "Nonsense!"
"I'm Li Nanchen's second uncle. How can I possibly hope for his death? Don't try to sow discord between us!"
Old Master Li couldn't be bothered with him. He instructed the maids to pack up the living room as soon as possible before tidying up the guest room for Li Zhuo…
He turned his head and glanced at Li Zhuo coldly. "You're injured, so get a doctor to treat you. How can you be in such a state?"
After hearing his reminder, Li Zhuo felt the pain in his tailbone and ribs increase. He recalled Li Yanghong mentioning Lin Liguo on the phone and requested, "The doctor who is treating the Old Master is called Lin Liguo? I heard that his medical skills are very good. I want to get him to treat me!"
When Wu Mei heard the familiar name, her eyes widened and her lips curled up into a smile as she stuck out her tongue.
She seemed to have thrown Lin Piaopiao and Lin Liguo into the basement and locked them up for two days! Wu Mei had nearly forgotten about this…
