Chapter 98 Whole family (2)
If it was another who dared to come to him for financial benefit, Li Youde wouldn’t let them off, but his cousin is his blood relative after all. He could adopt a son from his cousin in the future to carry on his family line. And his aunt is an elder after all. Hence, there were some things that even a self-proclaimed villain like him couldn’t do.
“Lady Chen, you want to…,” Li Youde looked at Chen Hui with a complicated expression. According to her, there was only one way to solve this matter for once and all, but…one is an elder and in the other flows the same blood as him. He really couldn’t make up his mind.
Chen Hui said, “If lord trust this Lady Chen, leave this matter to this Lady Chen. Although there was no guarantee of success, at worst, it would be the same as throwing money at them and sending them away.”
After hearing Chen Hui’s explanation, Li Youde breathed a sigh of relief. He almost thought that she was going to make the decision for him and find an assassin to kill those two. Fortunately… he suddenly felt a bit funny. How could Lady Chen, with her personality, silence someone?
“What do you plan to do?” Li Youde was a bit curious about Chen Hui’s way.
Chen Hui smiled mysteriously, “I still need the help of lord.”
Li Youde clicked his tongue once and said, “Don’t keep me in suspense. Tell me quickly!”
Chen Hui moved closer to Li Youde’s ear and spoke like that for a while. Li Youde’s expression became weirder and weirder. Finally, it became as black as the bottom of the pot.
“Lord, don’t be angry. This is to protect and fulfill your affection for a family and to solve your problems,” Chen Hui said with a smile. Although he had to be the scapegoat for a tiny bit, it didn’t hurt much.
Li Youde thought about the idea that Chen Hui had just told him. He was still angry, so, he couldn’t help but pinch Chen Hui’s waist lightly.
He didn’t use much strength. Chen Hui laughed so hard and trembled wildly. She turned and twisted on his body. While saying ‘no’, she also groped his waist.
Ah Da and Ah Er who was waiting outside faintly heard the ‘no’ and laughter inside. They tacitly retreated a few steps further away. They exchanged a look and lowered their gaze with a giggle.
Chen Hui had a laugh with Li Youde. Her clothes and hair were in a mess. She lay quietly on Li Youde’s shoulder and suddenly said in a low voice with emotion, “I really hope that we won’t be disturbed by those messy personnel affairs in the future.”
Li Youde’s heart twitched. Feeling the soft and warm body under his palm that was very attached to him at this moment, the corners of his mouth raised into a smile, but he said, “You ah, nothing will go wrong if you cause less trouble.”
Chen Hui pushed Li Youde away and jumped off to the ground. She wasn’t stable and swayed for a moment. Li Youde hurriedly reached out to help her. He only withdrew his hand after he saw that she had stabilized herself and said, “You are already so old, why are you still acting so rashly? How long has it been since your foot recovered? Do you want to limp and have someone support you?”
“Lord, I feel like you are prejudiced against me!” Chen Hui humphed and solemnly, “I’m obviously always well-behaved. Those two outrageous relatives are also yours and not mine! Lord, let me tell you, if it wasn’t because I came, you would’ve become a doomed solitary ginseng (doomed to a lonely life)! I will go to bed now!”
After she finished, she turned and left, leaving Li Youde confused. He was still thinking about what kind of ginseng was this ‘Doomed Solitary Ginseng’.
It took him a while before he realized that Chen Hui had thrown a temper at him. Now, he doesn’t even get angry anymore and only feels a bit helpless. He had spoiled her to this. Who else could he blame?
Li Youde touched his lips for a long time, recalling the pounding of his heart when the two were so close to each other. Suddenly he thought that if she said to ‘warm the bed’, he might as well agree as that feeling was really great.
After Chen Hui returned to her room, she didn’t fall asleep immediately. Instead, she simulated the idea that she came up with countless times in her mind. The feasibility of her method is mediocre but it was better than sending the two of them away with the money. She felt that the way she and Li Youde were hiding in the room discussing how to deal with Feng shi and her son was so much like a pair of bad adulterers.
Chen Hui couldn’t help but laugh when she recalled what she deliberately did when the two were discussing before. One day, Li Youde will get used to the close contact between the two. She would push his bottom-line step by step and the distance between the two will get closer and closer. She believed that it would soon become zero distance and then a negative distance…
Li Youde didn’t go to the palace the next day. He let Xiao Wu lead the way and went with Ah Da and Ah Er to the inn where Feng shi and her son were staying.
Because it was still early, the pair of mother and son hadn’t had time to go out yet. When Xiao Liu heard that Li Youde was in the inn, he got a superior room and called the two over afterwards.
Feng shi and Li Xiaozhuang had a great time these few days. So, they naturally weren’t in a hurry to get into Li residence. When Feng shi suddenly saw Li Youde, seeing his face that was pale because of the white powder and the sinister aura coming from him, her legs turned a bit weak. But then she remembered that she is Li Xiaozhu’s aunt. She is his elder. What did she have to be afraid of?!
“Xiaozhu! This aunt is happy to see that you are doing well now. Our Li household’s ancestors really looked upon us!” Feng shi cried, but there were naturally no tears in her eyes, just howling.
Li Youde’s face twitched. He restrained himself from puttinv on a smirk. He listened to Lady Chen today and deliberately put two more layers of powder on his face. If he hasn’t stopped her, she would’ve put the whole can of powder on his face.
“Aunt, I really missed you, and Xiaozhuang,” Li Youde’s voice was high-pitched. It sounded like a poisonous snake crawling across the skin. He said with difficulty, “I thought you were all dead before. Aside from you two, are there others?”
Feng shi felt very uncomfortable hearing Li Youde’s tone, but after hearing what he said, she felt good again. Didn’t he plan to treat them well by asking who else was still alive in their household?!
Feng shi said, “There is no one else. You are our only relative! Now that you are doing well, you can’t treat us badly! How could you have such a promising future if it wasn’t because I sent you into the palace back then? You have to be grateful and repay the kindness!”
Li Youde almost couldn’t control his emotions. Meeting this aunt face to face was different from hearing the story from Lady Chen. Lady Chen put it lightly. If it wasn’t because the two of them were his relatives, he might’ve not been able to control his emotions and have them killed. Very well, a woman who is so disrespectful to him and covets his things!
He cast Li Xiaozhuang a gloomy glance. Li Xiaozhuang really looks like a mouse, but they calculated badly! The corners of his mouth curled up. He decided to add a bit to Lady Chen’s plan.
“Aunt, you are right,” Li Youde said with a kind face,” What I am today is all thanks to aunt. We are family. The most important thing about a family is to be whole. Aunt came to seek shelter; I naturally have to treat you well…”
