Chapter 5103: He’s DifferentEditor: Henyee Translations
It had been 11 years since they last met. Li Jinnian looked at Li Ronghuan with an unfamiliar gaze. He was already unfamiliar with Li Ronghuan to begin with. Facing a stranger’s smile and concern, Li Jinnian instinctively treated him coldly.
Moreover, there was a huge problem with Li Ronghuan. As a soldier, Li Jinnian would keep a distance from him.
He nodded slightly and replied with only one word, "Yes."
Downstairs, Old Master Li was so angry that he pushed the wheelchair to the staircase. He looked up and saw Li Jinnian standing on the second floor. He was looking at Li Ronghuan with a cold facial expression. Then, he saw Li Jinnian dismissing his uncle with a one-word response. Anger surged from his heart.
His withered hands kept hitting the armrest of the wheelchair as he reprimanded loudly, "Is this the attitude a junior should have toward their elders? The Li family doesn’t owe you anything. Who are you showing your stern face to?"
Li Jinnian was Old Master Li’s eldest grandson, but he had never received Old Master Li’s love. Not when he was young, let alone when he grew up.
Now that Old Master Li had picked a flaw in Li Jinnian, he reprimanded him even more impolitely.
"Ronghuan, let him go. Our humble Li family can’t accommodate a big shot like him!" With that, Old Master Li turned his wheelchair and moved to the side of the stairs. He raised his finger and looked at the door with deep hatred in his eyes. "Get lost! Get lost now! Don’t ever return to the Li family’s residence again. The Li family doesn’t have an unfilial descendant like you! Get lost!"
Li Jinnian, who was standing on the second floor, looked down at the exasperated old man below. He just wanted him to get out of the Li family as soon as possible. After not seeing the old master for more than two years, he had aged a lot. He was old, but his heart was still unconvinced. Even his eyes were unconvinced that he was old. They were still filled with the viciousness from when he was younger.
Li Jinnian didn’t want to return to the Li family’s residence either. Unless it was absolutely necessary, he didn’t want to step into this old residence that made him feel dirty.
When he retracted his gaze, Li Jinnian’s gaze seemed to pass over Li Ronghuan’s face unintentionally. He looked down and saw that his second uncle, who had his back facing Old Master Li, was clenching his fists. As for his facial expression... He was expressionless.
They climbed down the stairs from the second floor. Just as the two of them were about to brush past each other, Li Ronghuan suddenly reached out and grabbed the strap of Li Jinnian’s travel bag. He smiled and said, "Let’s go. I’ll send you. Are you going to the airport or the train station? A bus station is fine too."
"Li Ronghuan! You, you, you..." Old Master Li, who was downstairs, was so angry that his hands were trembling. "Why would you send him off? This bastard..."
Li Ronghuan, who was secretly competing with Li Jinnian to take over the duffel bag, turned around and said to Old Master Li, who was trembling with anger, "Dad, the doctor said that your blood pressure is high and you need to rest. Why do you always get angry over small matters?
"Jinnian is my nephew and your eldest grandson. By scolding him, you’re scolding yourself too. Let the madam take care of you. I haven’t seen Jinnian in so long. I want to have a chat with him."
In the master bedroom, Second Old Madam Li was on the phone with her daughter. When she heard the angry shouts outside, she continued with a cold expression, "Li Ronghuan has been scheming since he was young. Back then, you and Chuhai suffered a lot at his hands. This time, he suddenly came back, and your father even handed the investigation of Chuhai’s death to him. I’m really worried.
"Chenglan, you have to come home when you’re free. Persuade your father and see if he can get you to investigate secretly or let Yuan investigate."
Li Yuan, who was sitting beside Madam Li, waved his hand. Madam Li glanced at her son and replied in a low voice, "Mom, don’t be anxious. I’ll find time to go home as soon as possible. There are still guests at home. I won’t chat with you for the time being. I’ll call you later."
