Sweet Wife in a Warm Pet Contract
Chapter 178 Li Jingwen
"Okay, remember to call me if anything happens."
Qin Fengjiao then hung up.
She gripped her phone tightly, still unable to calm down. In short, she wanted to ease Xiaohan's difficulties for now. If Xiaohan were to fall into an abyss of no return in the future, she would accept it.
She returned to the company and went upstairs to find Aimei. She learned that Li Jun and the others had not yet returned, so she had no choice but to leave. However, she thought that Aimei must know something, and since she was unwilling to say it, there was nothing anyone could do about it.
Shen Menghan lay on the table, but couldn't fall asleep. Her eyes were too heavy to open, but she still forced herself to stay awake.
By evening, she realized she was unable to drive, so she called a designated driver.
At the Li family home, Huang Ju and Li Dahai were having dinner. The two remained silent, maintaining a quiet atmosphere.
But a phone call interrupted their peaceful moment.
When Huang Ju saw the caller ID, she recognized it as her youngest son's call and quickly answered it.
"Mom, why didn't you wait for me before you ate?" Li Jingwen's voice was cheerful, as if he were watching them from somewhere.
Huang Ju was startled and couldn't help but scold, "You're back? Don't make a scene."
"Mom, turn around and look."
As Huang Ju turned around, she saw her tall and handsome youngest son standing at the door with a smile, dragging a simple suitcase.
"You brat, you didn't even tell me you were coming back!" Huang Ju muttered, but her face was full of joy. Even Li Dahai showed a smile that he hadn't seen in a long time.
Li Jingwen walked towards the two of them, put his suitcase aside, went to the kitchen, washed his hands, and then went to the dining table.
“You know, with such a big thing happening at home, how could I not rush back immediately? My brother and sister-in-law are such idiots, how could they do such a stupid thing under the surveillance camera?”
Li Jingwen despised his brother. With his brother's intelligence, he felt he should be completely sidelined. It was no wonder that his brother was able to get married, because his wife was his useless teammate.
"Don't put your brother down like that. Eat first, and we'll think of a solution later. The Li family has so much wealth; we can't just let it slip away like this," Huang Ju said bluntly, clearly not wanting her youngest son to remain in a daze.
"Yes, I know. I also have the surname Li. How can I let someone else take it all? Dad, didn't you say that Uncle wouldn't be at the company these days? I'll go to work tomorrow and sit in my brother's old seat."
“Alright, I can handle this. When he comes back, you should have a good talk with him. You used to be able to talk to him, but don’t let your brother block your way.” Li Dahai said earnestly, all his hopes were pinned on his youngest son.
Li Jingwen nodded with a smile. The Li family was where they would see who was superior. His uncle was eight years older than him, but so what? It didn't affect their competition at all.
After finishing her meal, Shen Menghan went back upstairs. She felt that even though her sister didn't mind her face being there with her grandmother, she still felt it was an eyesore.
There was a knock at the door, but no one except Cui Cui could get into the house.
She asked, "Cuicui, what's wrong?"
"Miss Shen, the second young master of the Li family wishes to see you. Would you be willing to see him?"
"The Third Young Master of the Li Family?" She was momentarily confused.
"That's right, the second son of that family." Cui Cui didn't know how to address him; she just called him whatever came to mind. In any case, she should regard all the masters of the Li family as her masters.
"No." She refused decisively. She wasn't familiar with him, so there was no need to meet. Besides, even when she had dated Li Dahai before, she had never met him. Meeting him now would be even more inappropriate.
She just wanted peace and quiet, undisturbed by others; as for anything else, she couldn't care less.
Cui Cui came downstairs and saw the incredibly handsome man at the door, whose looks were so striking they took your breath away. Her face flushed.
"I'm very sorry, Ms. Shen is not available to see you. Please leave."
"Then, would you be so kind as to accompany me for a walk in the courtyard?" Li Jingwen asked politely, frequently casting flirtatious glances at Cui Cui, looking incredibly charming.
"Thank you very much, but I still have things to finish." But Cui refused. She had learned her lesson before and was now wiser. She would not associate with anyone who was not someone she absolutely trusted.
Li Jingwen said, feigning sadness, "Alas, my heart is broken."
Cui Cui was amused by his comical appearance, but still refused: "I'd better go back and get busy, goodbye."
After she left, Li Jingwen went in another direction, which led to the place where Runqiong lived.
There were only her, Wang's wife, and a nanny, but the nanny had already gone to rest.
Li Jingwen's arrival added a touch of atmosphere to the room.
"Grandma, it's been so long since I've seen you. Have you ever thought of me? You don't know how much I miss you while I'm abroad." Li Jingwen had a particularly sweet tongue. He sat down next to Runqiong, put his arm around her, and acted very intimately.
Runqiong smiled back happily: "How could I not want to? You little rascal, all you do is run away. You never come back to see me often, not even a WeChat message. Let me take a good look at you. Oh, you've grown even more handsome."
"Oh dear, isn't that because of the good genes of our Li family? Otherwise, would I be so handsome? Grandma, do you think I inherited half of my good looks from our Li family's grandfather?" Li Jingwen's mouth never stopped.
He was completely different from Li Dahai and Li Guowei. He was always deeply loved by Runqiong, who also doted on him when they were young. It was just a pity that he was never home, so they had less time to meet.
She was quite generous; every time her son went abroad, she would give him some pocket money, because she knew that Li Dahai didn't have much savings.
If Li Jingwen is of pure heart and works hard, he will definitely become a capable assistant in Zhicheng in the future. It all depends on the fate between the two of them.
"Grandma, I might not be leaving this time. I was just about to look for an internship. My dad told me that my brother's position is still vacant. How about I give it a try? I will definitely follow in my uncle's footsteps, follow his governance principles, and work together to build a better tomorrow for the Li family!"
After Li Jingwen finished speaking, he smiled deeply again, and dimples appeared on both sides of his cheeks, making him very charming.
Runqiong didn't think it was too much to ask. The position was vacant, so let him take it: "Okay, you go to work with your dad. When Zhicheng comes back, I'll talk to him and it'll be settled. But don't be like your brother, or I'll turn on you and leave without a trace."
"Alright, thank you, Grandma. I will do my utmost to live and die with the Li family!" Li Jingwen said, and then unexpectedly kissed Runqiong's forehead lightly.
Runqiong chuckled to herself, thinking how thoughtful the child was, unlike Li Dahai and the others who were heartless.
