Li Xiyun covered her mouth and nose in shock. Something might have gone wrong yesterday. She thought about it carefully and realized that it could only have been a bowl of tea that she had drunk at grandpa’s place.
But why would grandpa want to deal with her, and in such a way that would destroy her?
Was he not most concerned about whether the Li family had a suitable heir?
His eldest son, which was Li Xiyun’s father, was a disappointing one. When old master Li saw that this piece of mud could not be helped, he set his sights on his second son. His second son was not that outstanding, but at least he was still better than his brother.
However, old master Li still had a lot of dissatisfaction. Until his eldest granddaughter, who he had never paid attention to before, appeared out of nowhere. Her resolute and decisive appearance in the business world made his eyes light up, he smiled and said that this was how a grandchild of the Li family should look like.
From then on, he brought Li Xiyun to his side and even had a purpose to hand the Li family over to her.
She had spent so many years in order to survive in the Li family so that her child would have a healthy environment to grow up in, and not be humiliated like she was when she was young.
She had worked hard to help the Li family develop. It was not easy for her to get old master Li’s attention. Was he not satisfied with her?
How could it be all of a sudden… Li Xiyun could not understand.
She clenched her hands nervously. At home, only her grandfather was kind to Babao and Xiaobao. As for the others… she did not want to talk about them.
If it was really as she had guessed, and her grandfather really interfered in this matter, Babao and Xiaobao would be in danger.
Li Xiyun rushed all the way back to the Li family. She was stopped by the housekeeper when she reached the door.
“Miss Xiyun, you’re finally back. Old Master was in a coma in the hospital yesterday!”
Li Xiyun was even more anxious than him when she bumped into the anxious butler. She held his arm tightly with one hand.
“When did grandpa pass out?”
“Master passed out in the room. He was found around 8 o’clock, but he’s awake now. He’s looking for you.”
8 o’clock… it was exactly one hour after she and grandpa had finished drinking tea. Li Xiyun suddenly understood. She did not think that the mother and daughter would be so bold to even scheme against grandpa to deal with her.
However, she and her grandfather had not been home for one night. What about Dabao and Xiaobao?
Li Xiyun took a deep breath and asked in a trembling voice, “Where are Dabao and Xiaobao?”
As soon as she said this, she saw uncle Liu stunned. As if he had just remembered the two children, he spoke with some hesitation.
“They… I didn’t see them today.”
Li Xiyun only felt her vision darken. She immediately ignored the housekeeper and walked quickly into the main door. The Li family’s courtyard was a Chinese-style courtyard, so there was a very long corridor. Li Xiyun was anxious and immediately ran.
She ran all the way into Dabao and Xiaobao’s rooms, her room, and grandpa’s room.
No, no, there could not be found anywhere.
Li Xiyun, who was about to go to other places to take a look, was stopped by Ruan Miaomiao and Li Baozhu, who had just returned from the hospital.
“Yo, isn’t this Li Xiyun, who grandpa values the most? Grandpa is sick and in the hospital. It’s really unfilial of you not to go and take a look!”
Li Baozhu said exaggeratedly, but there was jealousy and hatred in her eyes. Why did Li Xiyun deserve grandfather’s attention? What was so great about her?
“Xiyun, if you’re going to see grandfather, you’d better change your clothes and tidy up.”
Although Ruan Miaomiao’s words were gentle and gentle, everyone could see the malice in her eyes. Anyway, there were only three of them. She did not need to pretend to be a good wife and mother.
“Ah, Li Xiyun, is it because you didn’t know that you were fooling around with that man that you didn’t go to see grandfather?”
After Ruan Miaomiao’s reminder, Li Baozhu looked at Li Xiyun’s neck. Although half of her neck was covered by her collar, she could still see some traces of intimacy.
