Chapter 26 Another One

"You call that manners?"

Li Ping perked up as soon as she heard Wen Haotian's voice: "The fact that I didn't tear your face apart when I left shows how noble my morals are."

"You...you still dare to go see my daughter? Who gave you permission to go?...shameless! You've ignored her for so many years, and now you dare to go see her...If you don't leave, I'll fly back right now and slap you until you have to go see your parents!"

Li Ping has been away from home for a long time, and as a single mother, she would be bullied if she didn't have a strong personality.

But Li Ping rarely swears.

This time, the insults were so fierce, with her red lips revealing telegraphic codes, that Wen Haotian gasped in shock.

This shows just how much Li Ping hated him.

Seeing that he looked like he was about to faint from anger, Li Sui hung up the phone.

The main reason is that I'm afraid of getting so angry that I have a heart attack and die in my own house, which would be so unlucky!
Li Sui: "Hurry up and leave. You're supposed to be the richest man in Bincheng. Have some self-respect. She's already insulted you like that. You're not going to shamelessly come back to her, are you?"

Wen Haotian was already trembling and unable to speak, so of course he wouldn't insist any further.

Supported by a bodyguard whose shock was evident even through sunglasses, she immediately led her employer away when she sensed something was wrong.

As soon as they left, Li Sui closed the door.

Weaver Girl immediately spat, "What a shameless father! He's ignored you, the leader, for over twenty years, and he still dares to try and sow discord between you and your mother!"

Li Sui also found it very absurd.

She didn't care at all who Wen Haotian was or what his identity was.

Li Ping hadn't mentioned her all these years; to her, he was just a stranger, and she didn't feel a shred of emotion at all.

What does blood relation even matter?

Li Ping called again: "Has that idiot left yet?"

Li Sui: "I'm gone."

Li Ping: "It's fine that you've left. I'll bring them to Xiacheng to find you in a few days after your grandmother's medical report comes out. If he harasses you during this time, tell me and I'll expose him to the media!"

Li Sui: "Okay, okay, I know, but how did you two get divorced back then? From what he said, it sounds like you had a really big fight."

Li Ping only said that Wen Haotian was a scoundrel, and she was unwilling to mention him.

Li Sui asked this purely out of curiosity.

She could ignore it back then, but now that Wen Haotian is here, Li Sui feels she should have some right to know.

Li Ping sneered: "What else could it be? It's the same old story, he cheated on me."

"..." This is similar to what Li Sui thought.

She guessed that it was something like this that had really hurt Li Ping's nerves, which was why she hated him so much.

Because Li Ping is a person who dares to love and hate, she can refuse to return to the Li family because of a fit of anger, and naturally she can also hate Wen Haotian for so many years because he cheated on her.

However, a long time has passed, and Li Ping only hates Wen Haotian as a person. She has come to terms with the matter: "It's just a cliché prodigal son returning home. I thought I really had the ability to make a womanizer settle down for me, but I got my comeuppance."

She couldn't tolerate any flaws, and at first, Wen Haotian didn't dare let her know.

She even kept it a secret from her close friends.

Part of the reason she didn't return to the Li family was because even the Li family knew about it before she did.

But the Li family was afraid she would get hurt, so they didn't dare tell her and chose to keep it a secret.

When she saw the woman arm in arm with Wen Haotian in the tabloid, she felt like the sky had fallen.

There was no one I could trust around me, and the vows we made had become a load of bullshit.

Li Ping's anger could not be extinguished.

She was fed up with the ways of high society; she just needed to put up with it.

She married Wen Haotian and lived as Mrs. Wen for the rest of her life, enjoying endless wealth and luxury.

She was unwilling, so she chose to break ties with Wen Haotian.

At first, Wen Haotian was unwilling to divorce, so their argument became very ugly.

Everyone just tries to persuade her to downplay the issue, saying, "Everyone does it this way, as long as you can get by, that's fine."

So she hated. She hated Wen Haotian, she hated the Li family, and she hated everyone around her.

So she left without looking back.

Li Sui was shocked after hearing this: "It's like that TV series I watched the other day, the difference is that the female lead endured it. But... you actually managed to leave, and didn't even want the money..."

From a high-class young lady to an ordinary woman who has to haggle with the older women at the market ten times over just to save a few cents.

Her mother could live like that for over twenty years.

At this moment, Li Sui truly admired Li Ping.

"What's the use of money? With my personality, am I supposed to stay and watch him cheat on me every day? I'd just get breast cancer from all that stress sooner or later. I want to live for decades to come!"

Li Ping finally told her daughter the secret she had kept for over twenty years, and felt a sense of relief: "It's all in the past now. As long as that bitch doesn't show up in front of you, everything will be fine."

"I'll hang up now, I'm sleepy."

Li Sui: "Okay, go to sleep."

After hanging up the phone, Li Sui rested her chin on her hand, thinking about her mother's past, and couldn't help but sigh, "So melodramatic!"

The Weaver Girl rested her head on her shoulder and whispered, "Master, don't be sad."

Li Sui: ?
"Why am I upset? It's none of my business, it's my mom's business."

To be honest, she has no feelings for the Wen family or the Li family now, and she only feels a slight sense of closeness to her maternal grandparents.

There's not much emotion involved.

She had never met them before, so how could she develop a deep affection for these people so quickly?
It's impossible for her to feel upset; she was even watching with amusement.

Wen Haotian's outburst tonight didn't affect Li Sui's sleep.

She stayed up too late and rushed to the film set at eight in the morning, yawning. The resentment of being a working woman turned her into a vicious woman, and she cursed Wen Haotian eight hundred times in the end.

If it weren't for his meddling, she could have slept at least two more hours!
Having not slept well and with action scenes taking a toll on her energy, Li Sui felt tired and exhausted all day long.

At least the action scenes were completed.

And today is her last day.

However, whether it was just her imagination or not, Li Sui felt like someone was watching her all day.

But looking back, the crew was making a ruckus, and I realized it was just my imagination.

Her neighborhood WeChat group was bustling with activity today, with messages constantly being sent out.

The owners' group for Building 21 of Moon Community.

201: [It seems like a beggar has appeared near our neighborhood. He's dressed in rags and keeps looking around suspiciously. I don't know if he's a kidnapper. Everyone should be careful when taking children out.]

802: [Are there still beggars? Should we call the police?]

901: [Why call the police if there's nothing wrong? Maybe they're homeless; the community welfare center will take them in.]

……

Li Sui only glanced at it and didn't take it seriously.

After all, there are messages posted in the owners' group every day.

It gets a bit lively occasionally.

—Especially when crickets are at someone else's house.

Today's work is completely finished. I can come back tomorrow to settle the payment, because it's too late today.

She took a taxi back to her apartment complex, her eyelids almost glued shut.

The roads in the neighborhood were very quiet, with only dim yellow lights.

Suddenly, she seemed to hear a noise.

Turning around abruptly, I saw a ragged person sneaking out of the flowerbed by the roadside.

The other person raised their head, wiped their face, and looked at Li Sui in disbelief.

"The leader?"
