As for her stepson, Li Jinnian … Thinking of this, a smile appeared in Zhong Jingyun's eyes. All these years, her stepson had never returned home properly, nor did he have any intention of reconciling with her husband. Her husband had said countless times that he had raised a son for nothing, so her stepson naturally wouldn't be a stumbling block for her son to inherit the Li family's business.
Her stepson was abandoned by her husband, and her biggest enemy, Li Chuhai, was dead. What else could her stepmother do?
She was old, and she spent all her time with Old Master Li. She did not know much about the outside world. When Old Master Li handed over the power to her husband, her stepmother would have to rely on her family.
Li Jinnian didn't want to stay for even a moment longer after hearing their conversation.
He nodded slightly at Li Hao and walked to Old Man Li. He bowed politely and said, "Take care of yourself. I'll visit you next time."
This was his grandfather, a blood relationship that could not be changed. He would not lack the respect that an elderly person should have, but that was all there was to it, nothing else.
Old Man Li did not like Li Jinnian, not only because he was close to the Fu family, but also because he could not understand what his grandson was thinking.
He did not like people and things that were out of his control. He did not like it at all!
Hearing this, Old Man Li's face darkened. However, he needed Li Jinnian's help. No matter how unhappy he was, he temporarily suppressed it and said, "If you can come home to visit me more often, I will be fine."
"It's almost dinner time. You only come home a few times in a year. This time, your brother and sister are all here. Stay for dinner with the family."
He wanted to express his grandfather's love for his grandson, but because he had never treated Li Jinnian like this before, his words were not only not caring, but also commanding.
Zhong Jingyun, Li Hao, and Li Xin's faces were a little tense. Zhong Jingyun and Li Hao were slightly better and did not show too much of what they were thinking. However, Li Xin did not hold back and said, "Grandpa, you're asking him to stay for dinner? Aren't you worried that grandma will choke? No, I don't! "
"Who likes such a cold face? Look at him, there's no other expression on his face other than coldness. It's as if our family owes him a lot of money. I've lost my appetite just looking at him!"
Old Man Li suddenly asked a grandson he didn't like to stay for dinner, which made Li Xin feel threatened. It was as if a meal could make her lose her position in the family.
This was what Old Madam Xiao Li liked about Li Xin. She was straightforward and could always say what she wanted to say but could not.
Without waiting for Zhong Jingyun, whose expression had changed, to reprimand her, Old Madam Xiao Li hurriedly defended her, "You lass, you're joking here again. What do you mean by 'cold'? Your brother is mature and steady. He doesn't like to show his emotions, do you understand? "
"Grandma!" Li Xin wanted to say something, but Old Madam Li gave her a look and said softly, "Your grandfather means that you are not allowed to refute him. Be sensible."
Li Xin was afraid of Old Man Li, so she replied with a soft "oh" and shut up, no matter how unwilling she was.
Ever since Li Jinnian entered junior high school, he had never had dinner with Li Hao or Li Xin, who disliked him because they had wronged him. It was not that he did not want to have dinner with their family, but that their family did not like to sit at the same table with him.
There was no room for negotiation. Li Jinnian didn't even look at the people who were looking at him. He replied indifferently, "No, I still have some things to take care of. I'll come back to see you next time. Goodbye. "
