Sweet Wife in a Warm Pet Contract

Chapter 152 Heartwarming

She pushed the door open. Xu Jingjing was packing her clothes. Seeing her barge in like this, she was extremely displeased, but she called out sullenly, "Mom."

"What's going on? Are you really going back to your parents' home? What have you been doing?" Huang Ju stared at Xu Jingjing, finding her particularly irritating no matter how she looked at her.

"Mom, I... I've been ordered by my uncle to leave the Li family. Can you put in a good word for me?" Xu Jingjing thought she had finally found a savior, since she and Huang Ju had previously been on the same side.

"Get lost, the farther the better. I don't want to see you right now." Huang Ju was in a terrible mood, and Xu Jingjing could forget about getting any help from her.

Xu Jingjing looked aggrieved and held her breath. She couldn't argue with Huang Ju; if she did, everything would be over.

Li Guowei walked in and said to Huang Ju, "Mom, I'll stay with her for a couple of days. We'll discuss what to do next. You'll be taking care of Dad all by yourself."

"Go and come back soon. Don't mention your dad. I wish he were dead sooner." Huang Ju said viciously, showing no regard for their marital relationship.

"Mom, Dad can't die. If he dies, we'll have even more trouble getting by in the Li family." Li Guowei finally realized how important his father was. Although he couldn't walk, his wife still gave him some face. He needed to rely on his father to get money. If he were to leave like this, their lives might become even more difficult.

"Hmm." Huang Ju knew this, but she was just saying it casually.

Suddenly remembering something, Li Guowei asked, "Mom, where is the property certificate for this house we live in?"

"Property certificate? No, all the houses are on one certificate, registered in your uncle's name. You can't do that." Huang Ju understood perfectly well what her son was thinking.

"So our family really has nothing?"

When Li Guowei said these words, he was filled with bitterness. They were both members of the Li family, so why was his fate so tragic?

"Yes."

The chrysanthemum's response was equally heavy; this is an indisputable fact.

Xu Jingjing truly regrets it. At the time, she only focused on Li Guowei's identity and never looked into it further. If she had known earlier that he was just an empty shell, she would never have married him and suffered like this!

"Then you'd better keep a close eye on Dad's 1.5 million yuan, don't let him squander it again. Jingjing, are you ready? Let's go." Li Guowei seemed impatient and didn't want to talk to his mother anymore.

Xu Jingjing also wanted some peace and quiet, so she grabbed her backpack and hurriedly left.

Qin Fengjiao found it strange; what was wrong with them?

After Shen Menghan came out, she told her what she had seen, but the other woman said indifferently, "It seems that Zhicheng kicked her out of the Li family. Didn't you just hear him say that?"

"I... I thought he was just saying it!" I never expected it to be true! Qin Fengjiao felt terrified. The consequences of offending the CEO were too severe.

"So you really need to watch what you say. Come on, let's go take a shower. We'll go downstairs for a walk later."

Shen Menghan seems to have emerged from the shadows, and her behavior was perfectly normal.

Li Zhicheng and Li Jun watched the two of them walk downstairs, and he felt relieved.

Li Jun turned around and went to take a shower. He wanted to go to bed early tonight; if he didn't get a good night's sleep, he might die from exhaustion.

Shen Menghan knew absolutely nothing about the Li family mansion. As she walked, she felt as if there was still a very long way to go.

They lay down on the lawn when they could no longer walk.

The moon is very round tonight, and there are stars to accompany it.

The scene of being bullied flashed through Shen Menghan's mind, and her body twitched involuntarily. She didn't want to think about it, but it kept appearing in her mind.

"Xiaohan, I'm going home to keep Aunt Shen company tomorrow. Are you sure you'll be alright staying here alone?" Qin Fengjiao said seriously, still worried about her.

"It's alright. If you really feel unwell, there's a doctor at the Li residence. When you go back, you have to keep it a secret from your mother. I'll talk to her about Zhicheng when I get back in a couple of days." Shen Menghan was afraid that she might say something wrong and cause a misunderstanding.

"Okay, I know. Don't overthink it. That will all pass. I'm sure they won't let that bastard run rampant forever. Bad people will always pay the price."

Qin Fengjiao comforted him, but in her heart she sighed, "If that's really the case, then why wasn't the bastard who hurt her hit by a car and killed?"

Shen Menghan thought she could really pull through, but on the second night, when Qin Fengjiao went home to sleep, she was awakened by a nightmare in the middle of the night. She felt an invisible pair of hands reaching out to her, trying to grab her neck. She woke up in fright!

Li Zhicheng was sleeping on the sofa when he heard her soft sobbing. He quickly turned on the light, moved closer to her, sat on the edge of the bed, and pulled her into his arms, gently comforting her, "Don't be afraid, I'm here. Those things will pass." He had already ordered Li Jun to find the murderer as soon as possible, but who knew that the clues had now gone cold.

He originally wanted to sleep in the same bed with her, but worried that she would object, so he returned from the study after she fell asleep and slept on the sofa.

Shen Menghan looked up, her eyes filled with tears, staring at Li Zhicheng. She just kept crying and didn't say a word.

"Xiaohan, I will make that person pay the price."

"Hmm..." She believed it, but where was he now?

Apart from Li Meili, no one knew where that person was!

After two days of silence, Li Meili seemed to have recovered and began to implement her plans.

She slipped into Lufen's room, and even though it was the middle of the night, the two still had endless things to talk about.

"Aunt, next up is Uncle. Are you really going to do that?"

“Well, he’s heartless and ungrateful to me. I don’t need to give him any more face. You, go and buy the medicine.” Lu Fen’s eyes were filled with uncertainty. She felt that she was about to win.

Li Meili also smiled in a very eerie way; they were both about to usher in a brand new tomorrow!

Under Li Zhicheng's watchful gaze, Shen Menghan gradually closed her eyes, but she still couldn't fall asleep.

Li Zhicheng covered her with a blanket and, instead of going back to the sofa, slept on the floor.

Shen Menghan didn't notice until dawn.

As she was getting up, she stretched out her foot and bumped into his body, which startled her.

Li Zhicheng woke up when she touched him, and he smiled at her.

"Why are you sleeping on the floor? It's cold at night, you'll easily catch a cold." Shen Menghan frowned her pretty forehead, but her big eyes were covered with dark circles.

"Sleep here, it's closest to you." He stood up and stretched. Although he wasn't used to sleeping here, it was the closest place to Xiaohan, just as he said. If Xiaohan was still woken up by nightmares, he could appear by her side more quickly and reassure her.
