Li Chengyan said casually, "I know you don't like her, and she doesn't like you either. It's just that she hasn't been to the old house for a long time, so she came to visit. You don't have to worry about her. Just do what you need to do. I'll show her around. "
Mrs. Li was speechless.
Dumbfounded, he looked at Li Chengyan in disbelief.
After a long time, she murmured, "This is my home. This is the old house of the Li family. She can come and see me whenever she wants. What does she think she is? "
Mrs. Li's voice grew louder and more agitated as she spoke. It seemed that she was really angry.
Li Chengyan frowned. He knew what his mother was angry about. She had spent most of her life to earn the identity of Mrs. Li. Living in this old house and dying in this old house was her biggest wish in this life.
However, Qiao Ning said he wanted to visit. How could she not be anxious? Their mother and son relationship had always been like this. She was worried that he would indulge Qiao Ning and drive her out of the old house.
"Mother, don't worry. She's just here to see. If you don't feel comfortable, I'll let her walk around by herself. I'll stay here and talk with you, "Li Chengyan said softly.
After all, she was the mother who had raised him. He couldn't be completely heartless.
As expected, Mrs. Li's face became much better after hearing his words.
As long as her son was still by her side, as long as her son was still on her side, that woman, Qiao Ning, would not be able to play any tricks.
"Okay, stay with me and talk! We haven't talked together for a long time, "Mrs. Li said happily.
Because she was happy, her attitude toward Qiao Ning softened. She even called the housekeeper and asked him to show her around.
"Don't get lost again. If you get locked somewhere else, no one will save you," Mrs. Li said sarcastically.
Qiao Ning sneered, knowing that she was referring to the last time he was locked in the attic. He didn't argue with her and left with the butler.
As soon as she left, Mrs. Li immediately ordered the servants to bring Li Chengyan's favorite tea and some snacks. She smiled and said, "Try this snack. It was my favorite when I was a kid."
Li Chengyan picked it up and tasted it, then put it down and said, "That's all in the past, mother. People grow up."
Mrs. Li was stunned. She didn't know what he meant. He frowned and sighed, "You're right, people grow up. You were so obedient when you were young."
"I remember you saying something to me before." Li Chengyan said, "At that time, you said that people's lives are actually very strange. When children are young, children have to listen to their parents. When children grow up, parents have to rely on children, and in turn, they have to listen to their children. "
"Yes, I did say that." Mrs. Li's expression was stiff, and her smile was unnatural.
Li Chengyan sighed again and said, "So, mother, now you have to rely on me?"
Mrs. Li was startled and quickly nodded. "Of course, mother has been relying on you for a long time. Not only me, but the entire Li family has to rely on you. "
"If that's the case, why do you have to make things difficult for me and bring up the unspeakable past?" Li Chengyan's face darkened, and he said coldly.
Mrs. Li shivered, closed her eyes, and sighed. Sure enough, he had warned her.
"It's my fault. I shouldn't have told Zhong Qing about this. But I heard that you have been actively preparing for the wedding, and the wedding that was originally postponed will be held as scheduled. Are you really going to marry Ye Ziqing? "Mrs. Li couldn't help but ask curiously.
Li Chengyan said, "Of course. The invitation has been sent out. How could it be a joke?"
"But I see that you haven't seen Ye Ziqing for three days, and instead you hang out with Qiao Ning every day. Now you are looking for Qiao Ning's son in such a big way. Everyone in Fengcheng knows about it. Do you think Ye Ziqing will still be willing to marry you like this? "
Li Chengyan smiled lightly. "Mother, you don't have to worry about this. I know what I am doing."
Mrs. Li sighed again. Her son knew what he was doing, which made her feel uneasy.
Although she knew it was useless to say it, she couldn't help but say, "You have grown up. You can do whatever you want! But I heard that you are looking for Qiao Ning's son everywhere. You have to listen to me on this matter. Don't be so arrogant. Otherwise, people will laugh at you. It's fine to keep such a woman by our side, but do we have to raise a child for someone else? "
"Mother, the missing child is mine," Li Chengyan said seriously.
"What?" Mrs. Li was surprised and couldn't help but widen her eyes.
She had long known that Li Chengyan was looking for the child all over the world, but she had never thought about it. She had never thought about investigating it.
Because she thought that according to Li Chengyan's concern for Qiao Ning, as soon as Qiao Ning came back, he must have investigated Qiao Ning's family clearly. If there was something wrong with the child, he would have investigated it long ago and brought the child to his side.
However, after so long without any news, she naturally thought that the child had nothing to do with the Li family. She would never have thought that the child was Li Chengyan's.
"She … How is it possible? Didn't you say that she has symptoms of infertility? How could she have your child? "Mrs. Li said with a pale face.
If the child was really the child of the Li family, it meant that Qiao Ning was pregnant when he left Fengcheng. Mrs. Li couldn't help shivering. She couldn't imagine how angry Li Chengyan was with her and why he hadn't punished her for so many days.
"Don't you think I don't know whether she has symptoms of infertility or not? That old Chinese medicine doctor … Do you really think I don't know? "Li Chengyan said seriously.
Mrs. Li trembled and her face became even paler.
"What? You knew? Impossible, impossible. If you knew, how could you … "How could he keep her until now?
"I know far more than you can imagine, including how you bribed the old Chinese medicine doctor to deceive Qiao Ning. How you framed Qiao Ning and forced her to leave Fengcheng. Including the fact that you wanted to replace me when I was unconscious. Even … I was never your biological son. "
Mrs. Li was speechless.
Her face could no longer be described as pale. It was extremely pale.
"The reason why I didn't come to question you was to give you a chance. After all, you raised me. No matter what, at the most critical time, you abandoned your biological son and chose me. But this is the only time. If there is a next time, I will never forgive you. "
"Li Chengyan, so … so you knew," Qiao Ning suddenly kicked over a flower pot and rushed in. He looked at Li Chengyan and questioned him with a pale face.
