Shen Tianheng said hypocritically: "Don't worry about Dad. Dad will miss you and take good care of himself. You must be obedient when you go to the Li family. Don't be willful like you are at home, understand?"

With such a huge betrothal gift, the 1.1 million I gave out yesterday was finally worth it.

At this moment, Shen Tianheng was very happy and wished that Shen Xingruo would leave the Shen family as soon as possible.

Of course, this obedience means that Shen Xingruo wants to listen to him, and he believes that she can understand.

Shen Xingruo nodded and picked up the suitcase next to her, "Butler Lin, let's go."

If Shen Tianheng dares to play tricks on her, then he'd better get out of here and wait for her to do so. She will definitely make him regret it!

Be obedient? That's impossible!

Ever since she left the Shen family at the age of ten, she has never been obedient.

No matter what Shen Tianheng said or what the Li family said, she only listened to herself.

Butler Lin shook his head secretly, signaled the bodyguard to take Miss Shen's suitcase, and followed Miss Shen out of the Shen family's living room.

Shen Tianheng and Meng Ling pretended to see people off to the gate, watched Shen Xingruo get into the car, and only turned and went back into the house after the car drove away.

After the two men entered the house, they took the property certificate and bank card and became very proud of themselves.

"Finally, that damn girl Shen Xingruo is still useful. She came back just in time, and we made a lot of money."

"Yes, husband, after that short-lived ghost from the Li family dies, Shen Xingruo will definitely get a lot of money. We will go find her then."

The couple was making wishful thinking, completely unaware that not only would they not get a penny, but they would lose even more.

The old residence of the Li family.

After Butler Lin brought Shen Xingruo back, he took her in to see the old lady.

"Miss Shen, this is the old lady of the Li family."

"Madam, this is Miss Shen Xinyan from the Shen family."

The old lady looked at the pure and lovely girl and thought that she was a blessed person who would definitely bring happiness to her eldest grandson.

She was so happy that her mouth almost curled up to the sky, and she said with a smile: "You are Xinyan, you are so beautiful, just call me grandma."

"Yes, grandma, I'm a little tired. Can I go and rest first?"

She was not actually tired, she just wanted to go to the room quickly and find a way to open the box that Shen Tianheng gave her and see the relics left by her mother.

"Okay, Xinyan must have had a hard time riding the bus. Sister Lin, take Xinyan to the young master's room and let the two meet."

"Yes, old lady." Sister Lin responded respectfully and then said to Shen Xingruo, "Miss Shen, please follow me."

Sister Lin walked in front and took Shen Xingruo upstairs.

After knocking on Li Jingyan's door, Mrs. Lin gave the two of them a brief introduction and then left.

As soon as Shen Xingruo entered the room, he smelled the smell of medicine and rotting muscles.

Then I saw the man sitting in the wheelchair with a blanket covering his legs, and I immediately understood where the smell of rotting flesh came from.

After looking at the man's legs covered with a blanket for a while, her eyes moved to his face.

When she saw the face clearly, her eyes widened into big bells.

It's him?

How could it be him?

Now that was great, the person she had been looking for for a year finally got it without any effort.

It seems that God is helping her.

Damn, I finally found this bastard.

Next, she had to settle the debt he owed her with him!

Just as she was about to say something, she heard the cold voice of the man in the wheelchair: "Have you seen enough?"

"You're a grown man, it won't hurt you to look at me, so what's wrong with that? And didn't you look at me too?"

Although this man was sitting in a wheelchair, he had a very powerful aura, and his cold tone made the temperature in the room feel several degrees lower.

If a girl was more timid, she might have been scared to tears.

Only Shen Xingruo wouldn't be scared.

Li Jingyan didn't want to argue with her here. Just now, she looked straight at his legs, and then looked at his face unscrupulously, and then showed a look of horror.

This made him feel uncomfortable and unhappy, but he couldn't get angry in front of the girl, so he changed the subject: "Are you Shen Xinyan from the Shen family?"

Ever since his grandmother told him about the wedding for good luck, he had someone investigate the Shen family and found out that Shen Xinyan was currently nineteen years old and still studying.

But he doesn't look like the person in the photo, not at all.

Shen Xinyan in the photo gave people the feeling of being coquettish and flirtatious, and he didn't like her at first sight.

The person standing in front of him now was pure, lovely, fresh and unworldly, and looked to be about sixteen or seventeen years old.

She has a harmless face, but no one knows what the real person is like behind it.

He has met all kinds of people and will not easily believe a person's appearance.

Some people rely on their appearance to deceive others.

Shen Xingruo shook her head and said bluntly: "No, my name is Shen Xingruo, and Shen Xinyan is my half-sister."

Li Jingyan's handsome brows wrinkled up: "Grandma said that the girl who matched my horoscope was named Shen Xinyan, how come it became you? What's going on?"

"I'll tell you what happened later. Before that, I want to ask you, what's wrong with you?" Shen Xingruo pointed at his leg.

Li Jingyan took off the blanket from his legs. "As you can see, my legs are no longer viable. Unless I undergo a high-level amputation, I have a 50% chance of survival. Otherwise, I won't live more than three months."

"So my grandmother believed in the idea of bringing good luck to me. I don't know where she found out about Shen Xinyan's birth date and horoscope from. She said it matched my horoscope and could bring good luck to me. That's why this happened."

"This is not a big secret in the upper class circles of Beijing. Didn't your father tell you?"

Shen Xingruo finally understood after hearing this. So that's what was happening. Shen Tianheng had never told her these things. Everything he did was just to trick her into coming to the Li family.

But she was not too sad. She didn't believe what Shen Tianheng said before, and she agreed to it just to get her mother's belongings back.

So she felt it necessary to explain it to him clearly and did not want to expect anything from him.

But before she explained it to him, she couldn't help but ask, "How can you, a young man of the new era, believe in the idea of getting married? This is not ancient times."

Li Jingyan looked at the vase on the cabinet with deep eyes, "I have invited many famous doctors to see my leg.

But all the doctors said that there was no cure, unless I had my limbs amputated. My grandmother couldn’t bear to see me become disabled, so she went to the temple to pray to the gods, and then she believed what the master said about bringing good luck.”

"So that's how it is. I just returned to the Shen family from the countryside. I'm Shen Tianheng's eldest daughter. Ten years ago, my mother fell seriously ill and passed away..."

Shen Xingruo briefly told Li Jingyan about her own story.

As for what happened after she went to the countryside, she did not say anything.
