Sweet Wife in a Warm Pet Contract

"Mom, that's why I made Zhicheng explain himself clearly. He's a man, and he can't act irresponsibly." Lu Fen kept criticizing her son, which was a rare sight for a mother with such a strong sense of justice.

“Alright, I’ll take charge of this for him.” Runqiong took full responsibility, not wanting Li Meili to stay here any longer and hurt her grandson’s relationship with his wife.

"Mom... how are you going to take responsibility?" Lu Fen asked, her lips trembling. She thought her old woman must have gone mad.

“Lu Fen, what do you want? I know very well that you just want to consolidate your position in the Li family. So many years have passed, and Li Lei has always been well-behaved in this family. What else are you dissatisfied with? Do you want Mei Li to repeat the same mistakes? Here’s what we’ll do: I’ll give her ten million. Once she takes the money, she should stop bothering Zhi Cheng and leave the Li family. Go back to where you came from.”

Runqiong thought that she had solved the problem for her grandson, and he would definitely be grateful to her when he returned. Regardless of whether Li Meili's matter was true or false, she would not let her into the Li family's house.

This ten million is just to get rid of her.

"Mom!" Lu Fen refused to let it go so easily, her eyes filled with reproach.

"What, still not satisfied? How about this, I'll also give her a car worth two million. I'll have someone transfer the money to her account later. However, she must leave the Li family as soon as possible." If Xiaohan comes back and finds out about this, who knows how heartbroken she'll be!

She took the money for the flood relief only so that the Li family's descendants could prosper smoothly.

Li Meili was actually content. She had endured so many years in the Li family, and if she used this money sparingly, it would be enough for her to live a wealthy and peaceful life.

Lu Fen said, "Mom, I think Meili needs to think about this carefully too. Let's give her some time."

“Lu Fen, you’re just her aunt, you can’t make decisions for her in everything. Mei Li, I’m asking you now, are you willing? If you insist that Zhi Cheng hurt you, you must go to the hospital for a comprehensive and thorough examination. If you don’t go, I’ll know what’s going on. Don’t blame me for not giving you face. I’m not so old that I’m senile!” Run Qiong’s voice was like a sharp knife piercing Li Mei Li’s heart.

Although her eyes were cloudy with age, it didn't mean she was blind; she was still as shrewd as a ghost.

Li Meili was terrified by her words and broke out in a cold sweat. A wise person knows when to yield. She thought that if she continued to pester her, she would be the one to suffer in the end.

"Thank you, Grandma. Since the Li family is unwilling to acknowledge me or accept me, I will follow your arrangements and go home to heal my wounds." Li Meili spoke very eloquently, not wanting to give anyone cause for gossip.

Runqiong's gaze swept over her before she finally said, "Fine, then pack your things and leave now."

"Grandma, I... I want to stay at the Li family home and go back tomorrow morning, okay? Otherwise, I'm so emotionally unstable, and if my grandma and the others ask me about it when I get back, I won't know how to answer them." Li Meili said, covering her face with her hands and pretending to cry.

Seeing this, Runqiong waved her hand and said, "Alright, pack your bags and leave first thing tomorrow morning."

The Li family doesn't need her presence; the sooner she leaves, the sooner she can put her mind at ease.

In the afternoon, when Grandma came out of the operating room, Shen Menghan and her mother rushed forward. However, because Grandma was still under anesthesia, she needed to be placed in a special ward for observation for two hours. They could only stay outside and see her through the window, but could not get close.

Li Zhicheng's gaze never left Shen Menghan. The more he did this, the less Shen Menghan paid attention to him. She stayed close to her mother, as if nothing else mattered to her.

Qin Fengjiao had no idea what was going on with them. Worrying about it was useless, so she quietly called Li Jun. Li Jun was busy, and he snapped at her rudely, "What does the CEO's business have to do with you? If you're so gossipy, why don't you become a paparazzi?"

"I'm just concerned, don't you care about your CEO at all?" Qin Fengjiao lowered her voice, worried that she might accidentally raise her voice and attract attention.

"Is that something we should care about? What does the boss's private affairs have to do with us employees? If you have so much free time, you might as well use it to study. Otherwise, you won't be able to keep up when you come back, and I bet you'll be crying then." After saying that, Li hung up the phone.

Holy crap! This guy's acting like he's swallowed poison; his words sound so strange!

She decided to start with Xiao Han and see what was really going on between the two of them.

Finally, two hours later, Grandma was moved to a regular ward.

They all breathed a sigh of relief.

"Mom, you rest on the sofa for a bit. We'll stay with Grandma." Before the surgery, Li Zhicheng had instructed Li Jing to arrange everything. They were now in a VIP ward with complete privacy.

"No, I'll get your grandma something to eat. You all rest first. Once she's been observed for a couple of days and is fine, we'll be discharged. We can't stay in such an expensive ward anymore," Shen Feng said with great heartache. She knew how hard it was to earn money, especially since Xiao Han had been supporting their family all by herself.

"Mom, our medical expenses can be reimbursed, what are you afraid of?" Shen Menghan said jokingly, but her voice could not hide her distress.

Shen Feng thought she was worried about her elderly mother, so she comforted her: "Your grandma's phone worked perfectly. Don't be sad anymore. Quickly put aside your sadness, otherwise she will be upset when she wakes up and sees it."

Shen Menghan nodded forcefully, forcing a smile: "Mm."

Li Zhicheng waited for Shen Feng to go to the kitchen to prepare food, then quickly went to Shen Menghan's side, but she turned her face away and refused to pay attention to him.

"Xiaohan, let's talk outside." His voice was suppressed; seeing her in pain made him feel no better than she did. He only wanted to clarify the matter of those photos.

"There's nothing to talk about. You can leave now. I never want to see you again." Shen Menghan was extremely resistant; seeing him was like seeing a huge joke.

She had once warned herself that if a man could be relied on, pigs would fly. After experiencing Li Guowei, she had long since stopped believing in love, but he slowly invaded her heart, breaking down her walls little by little.

The photos from this morning completely shattered her defenses, and she had no choice but to order herself to quickly build new ones to avoid further harm.

Men, as long as they have women, they don't care whether they love them or not; as long as they enjoy the pleasure, that's all that matters!

"I'm not leaving. You have to listen to me clearly. I've been wronged. Things aren't as you think." Li Zhicheng was eager to defend himself. The more indifferent she seemed, the more afraid he became, always feeling that she might fly away from him at any moment.

"What's going on between you two? Mr. Li, did you bully Xiaohan?" Qin Fengjiao felt strange. Xiaohan had been acting strangely this morning. After Li Zhicheng came, he asked her what was wrong. Later, he was supposed to leave, but he didn't want to. Now Xiaohan is ignoring him. It's like there's some misunderstanding between them.

"Linglong, please chase him away for me. I never want to see him again." After saying that, Shen Menghan walked towards the kitchen. She just wanted to stay by her mother's side. Only when she was with her mother did she feel safe.
