Chapter 5278: Human Heart
Editor: Henyee Translations
There was no mention of the Fu family. Old Master Fu and Fu Yusheng were both scientific researchers. Although they had a wide network and knew all the important scientists, they were experts in scientific research. In other aspects, they were average.
This was also why Old Master Fu specially looked for Grandpa Xia and personally told the Xia family that his only granddaughter would be under the Xia family’s protection.
That was because Old Master Fu knew that once something happened to Ye Jian, the Xia family would be the first to step in.
Li Jinnian was indeed a little flustered. He had always been calm, but this concerned his only cousin, Ye Jian. He couldn’t remain calm.
Now that Commander Xia had voiced his support, he felt much calmer.
"After you finish what you’re doing, return to the capital city as soon as possible and interact more with Li Ronghuan. He’s responsible for the Li family’s successive accidents in the past few months."
Commander Xia also treated Li Jinnian as his junior. He only had to remind Li Jinnian a little to understand what he meant.
That night, Li Jinnian left the military unit in a car and took a 5:30 am flight back to the capital city. At this moment, Old Master Li’s funeral was arranged in an orderly manner.
Second Old Madam Li had been accompanying Old Master Li the entire time. She seemed to have aged ten years instantly. Everyone who came to visit would tell Second Old Madam Li to take care of herself.
Second Old Madam Li, who thanked the guests, seemed to be choking back tears. Anyone who saw her like that would sigh. They would not be able to help but say, "Madam, if you have any difficulties in the future and need our help, please feel free to ask."
People often sympathized with the weak. Respecting the old and loving the young was a Chinese virtue. Second Old Madam Li was an ’old lady’ that needed to be respected now. Everyone would feel bad for an old lady like her? Old Master Li was no longer around, so his subordinates would naturally respect Second Old Madam Li.
As for whether Second Old Madam Li would need their help with anything, with their current status, they would be able to help as long as it wasn’t a big matter.
What could happen to the old madam, who was at home all year round, serving the old master? It was just about how the Li family’s assets were divided.
That was what they all thought. Hence, they naturally said such things to her.
This was what Second Old Madam Li wanted them to say.
She instructed Madam Li to remember these people so that it would be easier to contact them later. She wanted them to stand on her side. She would not let outsiders take advantage of the Li family.
Li Jinnian’s father was very cold to her actions.
How far could the Li family go? The higher they went, the clearer Mr. Li became. In addition, he had already built his own path and had long escaped Old Master Li’s control. Whether the Li family was around or not made no difference to Mr. Li.
Second Old Madam Li just wanted the Li family’s assets. She really didn’t think that she could support the Li family.
After Old Master Li left, everyone’s hopes dissipated. They were all smart people. Who would work for an old woman?
She was the only one who thought that she could succeed and took other people’s pleasantries seriously. She thought that everyone would give her some face on account of the old master.
Mr. Li looked coldly at his stepmother’s various cheap shots. He retracted his gaze and ignored her. Li Ronghuan was the same. The two brothers didn’t like the Li family at all, but this actually brought unprecedented harmony to the Li family.
