After a blind date, a wealthy heir asked me to marry him.

Chapter 56 Li's Mother's Wishful Thinking

At this point, passersby also began to discuss the matter.

"Hey, what happened to this woman lying on the ground? Did she kill someone?"

"It shouldn't be, look there's no blood on the ground."

"It would be more serious if there was no bleeding; it means it's an internal injury. Look at that woman's face; it's terrifying."

"Huh? What's going on?"

As everyone was discussing this, they saw the man carry the unconscious woman directly into the car and place her on the back seat.

"What happened? After a car accident, shouldn't you wait at the scene for the traffic police or the insurance company to handle it? How did he run away? And he even took the other person with him."

"They should definitely take him to the hospital."

"Oh, I haven't experienced that, so I'm not sure."

Amidst the murmurs of the crowd, the man restarted the car and sped away.

He did indeed take the woman to the hospital.

Unable to determine her physical condition or personal information, and unable to contact her family, we could only send her to the hospital first.

However, it's certain that her fainting had nothing to do with him; his car didn't even touch her.

In the emergency room, the doctor looked at the man and said, "Could you please provide the patient's information?"

"I do not know her."

Doctor: "Can you contact her family?"

"No."

The doctor rubbed his slightly thinning hair. "Oh, I see. What's your name?"

"I?"

The man was somewhat displeased. He was already having enough of trouble with this kind of thing, and now it was getting even more complicated.

"Here's the thing, out of responsibility to the patient, we need to register your information first. After the patient wakes up, we'll try to see if we can contact her family."

The man thought for a moment and then gave his name.

Zeng Ruijie

Then he asked, "When will she wake up?"

The doctor replied, "It's hard to say. We don't have her previous medical records. We can only draw a conclusion after completing all the tests."

Zeng Ruijie sighed and turned to make a phone call.

Fu Cheng finally took the initiative to invite him to play golf and have a meal, and this is what happened.

He probably won't make it to the afternoon golf game; he needs to call Fu Cheng to let him know.

Meanwhile, Li Haokai, who was waiting at home to discipline his wife, couldn't find her no matter how long he waited, and he paced around the house in frustration.

"Lu Shuyao is probably too ashamed to come back. She dared to take a kitchen knife. It seems I've spoiled her too much, which is why she's acting so shamelessly."

Li's mother chimed in, adding fuel to the fire: "That's right, I only said a few words to her, and she just grabbed a knife. What? As her daughter-in-law, is it wrong for me to say a few words to her?"

“Mom, you’re right. As her daughter-in-law, she has no right to fight back, not even if you scold her or hit her. Don’t worry, if she doesn’t apologize and make a promise to you and Dad this time, I will divorce her. We can’t let her get away with this kind of behavior.”

When Li's mother heard the word "divorce," her eyes darted around. "Xiao Kai, it's not that time for divorce yet. Let's see how she behaves next."

Although she was indeed very scared when her daughter-in-law pointed a kitchen knife at her, she knew that as long as she didn't mention her family in front of her daughter-in-law in the future, her daughter-in-law was still easy to control.

Li Haokai didn't quite understand. He walked over to his mother and sat down. "Mom, she even pointed a kitchen knife at you and Dad. Aren't you going to consider a divorce? Luckily, nothing serious happened this time. What if she goes even further in the future?"

Seeing that everyone in the room was family, Li's mother spoke frankly, "Tell me, from the moment Lu Shuyao entered the family until now, every single day we've served her. Has she ever served us even once? Your father and I are one thing, we don't care, but you are her husband. Has she ever cooked for you? Has she ever earned a single penny for this family? Divorcing her now would be too easy for her."

Li Haokai felt that his mother's words made sense. His mother was worried about him. He was working hard for the family, while she did nothing at home all day. In the end, she didn't give birth to a son for him, but her temper grew. He felt like he was a complete sucker.

In fact, the fact that he mentioned the word "divorce" shows that he really had no feelings for Lu Shuyao anymore. The main reason he married her was because she was pregnant, and his mother kept urging him, as an only son, to have a grandson. He had no choice, and Lu Shuyao was well-behaved and cute, and he didn't have a suitable person around him at the time, so he reluctantly married her.

However, remembering his mother's words, he agreed for the time being, "Then let's give her another chance. This time, let's not mention divorce to her."

Li Haokai thought that if Lu Shuyao continued to treat his parents this way, then it would only be a matter of time before he divorced her.

Hearing this, Li's mother continued to instill her ideas in her son, "Yes, let's not talk about divorce yet. Let her fulfill her duties as a wife first. Let her do all the housework. We're not bullying her. Since ancient times, which family's wife hasn't been like this? Like your father, I've served him every day since the day I married him, doing his laundry, cooking, and washing his feet."

Upon hearing this, Li Haokai couldn't help but recall the time when his wife was pregnant and he had to fetch her water to wash her feet. He felt even more aggrieved. "Mom, you are a virtuous wife and loving mother. How can she compare to you?"

"Xiao Kai, to be honest with you, I don't expect you to give me a big, fat grandson anymore. I'm telling you not to mention divorce yet, not that we'll never mention it again. We need to have better alternatives before we bring it up again. Do you understand what I mean?"

Since Li's mother had put it so clearly, how could Li Haokai not understand?

Only then did he fully understand his mother's true intention in telling him not to mention divorce.

Li Haokai nodded, "Mom, I understand. Don't worry, I know what I'm doing."

“But even if we don’t mention divorce this time, we still need to teach her a lesson. I called her sister, but she doesn’t have many friends in Nanshi. She’s probably gone to her sister’s place.”

For some reason, Li Haokai became convinced that he was Lu Shuyao's first love, and that the gentle Lu Shuyao was definitely inseparable from him.

After saying that, Li Haokai picked up the phone and dialed Lu Shiyi's number.

Originally, he didn't want to alarm Lu Shiyi, after all, it was his own family matter, and Lu Shiyi's husband didn't seem like someone to be trifled with.

But there's no way around it now; he's already been late for work and has been waiting for almost two hours, and he simply can't wait any longer.

When Lu Shiyi received the call, she was in the study room receiving customers who came for consultations.

Seeing that it was Li Haokai calling, her heart skipped a beat. Her sister had just returned home this morning; her brother-in-law would call her if it was something important.

She apologized to the customer, "Excuse me, I need to take this call. You can take a look at our introduction materials first."

As he spoke, he handed the study room brochure on the table to the customer, then turned and went to the door to answer the phone.

Before she could even speak, Li Haokai on the other end of the line asked, "Is Yaoyao with you?"

The tone sounded very unfriendly.

Lu Shiyi frowned instantly. "Didn't she just get home this morning? What happened?"
