Perhaps it was the pressure from what happened between Li Yan and Li Xuanbao these days that caused her to no longer be able to control herself and express all her dissatisfaction and resentment towards Li Jiawei.

In the past, she didn't say it out of the mother-daughter relationship and the family's reputation, but now her own son was almost sent to jail because of this daughter. Li Jiawei clearly didn't regard them as her family, so why should she care about her reputation.

"Li Yan!" Jing Qiu turned around and said, "Call her and ask her to return to Xishi immediately! I want to ask her face to face what she is thinking!"

Li Yan subconsciously looked at his father, only to see Li Ronghua frowning and sighing heavily: "Jing Qiu, calm down and don't be so impulsive."

"Impulsive?" Jing Qiu's eyes were red, and his voice was almost a roar, "These days, I couldn't sleep all night long, and I was worried and anxious. Do you know how tormented I was?

But I never dreamed that the one who turned our family upside down was actually my daughter, whom I gave birth to after ten months of pregnancy!

I finally understood that since the day she stepped into the Li family's gate, her heart was not here. She just used this place as a springboard for her calculations!"

Li Ronghua knew that his wife was furious and any explanation or persuasion would be futile.

He looked at Li Yan and said, "You should accompany Xinlan to rest first. She has been running around and worrying about your affairs these days, and she hasn't had a good night's sleep."

Li Yan and Zhong Xinlan looked at each other, then they stood up and said, "Dad, Mom, let's go upstairs and rest first."

After Li Yan and Zhong Xinlan went upstairs, Li Ronghua stood up and left the restaurant in silence.

Jing Qiu was the only one left in the restaurant. She watched her husband and son leave, the anger accumulated in her heart surged like a raging tide, she swung her arms violently, and all the plates on the table fell to the ground with a "crackling" sound.

The sound of shattering porcelain tiles was particularly harsh in the empty restaurant.

In the room upstairs, Zhong Xinlan sat by the bed, looking at her husband who was resting with his eyes closed, and broke the silence softly: "Now this situation, how are you going to deal with it?"

Li Yan let out a heavy sigh and looked at his wife beside him, his eyes full of fatigue and helplessness: "I just got out of this, how can I have any thorough plans?

At this critical moment, returning to Li's would only cause trouble. Those shareholders are probably planning to cause trouble for me! If I return to the company, I have to wait until the storm has completely subsided. "

He narrowed his eyes slightly, looking into the void, "Let's see what father means first."

Just as he finished speaking, he heard the sharp sound of porcelain breaking from downstairs.

Zhong Xinlan shrank back instinctively, and then a trace of annoyance flashed in her eyes. She stood up and walked quickly forward, closing the bedroom door to block out the irritating noise.

Then she returned to the bed and sat down next to Li Yan, her fingertips unconsciously stroking the sheets: "Mom asked you to call Jiawei just now, why did you..."

Li Yan stared at her with a sharp gaze, and a meaningful smile appeared on the corner of his lips: "Why? From your tone, you are looking forward to her coming back?"

Zhong Xinlan looked solemn, with a hint of indignation in her tone: "I just want her to come back!

You are her elder brother no matter what, but she played these shameful tricks behind your back, almost causing you to... Doesn't she think she should give you an explanation?"

Li Yan laughed coldly, his eyes full of sarcasm: "Explanation? What explanation can she have? After all, we are just strangers connected by blood.

We have never met in the past thirty years. How sincere can the brother-sister relationship be in these few years?" He leaned against the head of the bed, his eyes becoming colder and colder. "Besides, I hope she doesn't go back to Xishi now."

Zhong Xinlan was confused and couldn't help asking, "Why? Can she hide outside and make things better?"

Li Yan lowered his eyes and said: "But it won't make things worse!

I can't go back to the company right now, the situation is the most unstable. You say..." He paused and looked at his wife, "If she comes back at this time, will she take the opportunity to interfere in the group's affairs?"

Zhong Xinlan's heart skipped a beat, as if someone had grabbed her heart.

She shook her head subconsciously, but her voice unconsciously became a little unsteady, because she only realized recently that she thought she had seen through Li Jiawei before, but now she realized that she had never really understood Li Jiawei.

Zhong Xinlan looked at Li Yan: "No way! Mom and Dad won't allow this to happen? They will never let her surpass you..." Even so, her fingertips felt slightly cold, and there was a hint of uncertainty in her tone.

Li Yan twitched his lips, but the smile did not reach his eyes. He said with a bit of self-mockery: "Nothing is set in stone in this world. If I hadn't experienced it myself, who would have thought that the one who plotted against me was actually Li Jiawei."

He tapped the head of the bed with his fingers: "Besides, think about it carefully. Now she has her uncle backing her up, Uncle Liang is her backer, and she holds a lot of shares in the Li Group. Add to that the share in Uncle Liang's hands..."

He suddenly lowered his voice, his eyes as sharp as an eagle: "Besides father, who else in the entire group can compete with her? While I'm not in the group, if she wants, she can completely cut off the source of her trouble. By then, not to mention me, even father, I'm afraid he won't be able to stop her!"

Zhong Xinlan dug her nails deep into her palms: "Does she really have such ambitions?"

Li Yan slowly closed his eyes, his Adam's apple moving, as if he was swallowing all his emotions: "Even though she didn't grow up in this family, ambition is something that is engraved in the bones of the Li family. She didn't do it before because she didn't have the opportunity and capital, but who knows now!"

The early spring in Beijing was filled with a balmy breeze. Li Jiawei leaned against the carved window of the courtyard house, her fingertips swiping across the tablet screen as she sent out the last contract annotation.

She has been staying at home these days and all company affairs are handled online.

Sui Sui and Niannian were taken away by their uncle. The two little guys had long been weaned from breast milk, and they were fat and plump with complementary food and milk powder.

Besides, my uncle doesn’t have a team of nutritionists. I’m afraid those people are better at taking care of children than her, a new mother.

So she was completely relieved about Sui Sui and Niannian staying with their uncle for a while.

The bamboo curtain rustled slightly as Xiao Yi stepped over the threshold holding a celadon teacup. The jasmine scent of the tea filled the desk.

He placed the teacup on a low table with delicate bamboo patterns. Li Jiawei walked over and sat on a bamboo chair, which made a slight creaking sound.

Xiao Yi looked at his wife and smiled, "Jian Ge premiered today, and it was released simultaneously on TV and the Internet." He took out his phone and pulled up the real-time data for Li Jiawei to see, "The ratings exceeded 1.2, and three of the top ten hot searches on social platforms were on the Internet. It's a good start."

Li Jiawei lightly held the cup with her fingertips and took a sip of scented tea, the lingering tea fragrance spreading between her lips and teeth.
