Chapter 3837: Anger
Editor: Henyee Translations
In the Li family, the person who understood Old Master Li the best was the person beside him, Second Old Madam Li. Her advice was equivalent to telling Du Jiayi what perspective she should use to please Old Master Li.
However, at this moment, Du Jiayi didn’t take the advice to heart like last night. She held the old woman’s hand silently. She was angry at Second Old Madam Li for being so distant.
She lowered her eyes to hide the unwillingness in them. She made herself look weak and harmless.
“Think carefully about what I said. Tell me when you’ve thought it through. Go back to your room and tidy yourself up. Dress up beautifully before going downstairs. My granddaughter is so beautiful. You have to let everyone see it.”
She took care of herself meticulously, but her skin still lost its elasticity. She pinched Du Jiayi’s cheek intimately. Second Old Madam Li smiled and turned to leave.
She was wearing an exquisite cheongsam. It was impossible to tell that she was an old lady in her 70s. Even her daughter, Li Chenglan, who was only 15 years younger than her, was not comparable to her.
Du Jiayi slowly retreated into the room and fell heavily onto the bed. She grabbed the bedsheet tightly with both hands until it was about to tear.
In the end, it was because her surname was Du and not Li. Her grandfather didn’t treat her as a part of the family. As for the grandmother who doted on her… it was the same thing!
In their eyes, the Li family was their real family. She, on the other hand, was an outsider!
Du Jiayi gritted her teeth in hatred. She only wanted to go back to the Du family now. She wanted to go back to her real home as soon as possible. She didn’t want to stay with the Li family at all!
The Li family was a family with the surname Li. They had nothing to do with her!
No matter how much she liked her grandpa, at the crucial moment, her grandpa was still on Li Jinnian’s side. He wasn’t on his granddaughter’s side at all.
Hmph, she had figured it out!
Who was Du Jiayi? She was nothing. And it was all because her surname was Du!
Downstairs, Old Master Li was still scolding Li Jinnian. On the other end of the phone, Li Jinnian placed his phone in his pocket without listening to it.
He only managed to get one night of rest. Now, he was preparing to leave and return to the capital city.
Ye Jian couldn’t leave. She could only send him to the entrance of the company camp.
“Take care of yourself. Contact me if anything happens.” Li Jinnian, who was standing at the entrance of the camp, adjusted Ye Jian’s training cap. There was a hint of gentleness on his handsome and cold face. “Grandpa has me to accompany him, so don’t worry.”
Ye Jian nodded lightly. She didn’t retract her gaze until Li Jinnian walked to the entrance of the camp and left on a bus.
Zhou Yijin and a few other female soldiers from the arts troupe left the company immediately after the banquet last night. Ye Jian didn’t even have the time to say goodbye to Zhou Yijin face-to-face. She only received a message from her saying: [See you next time.]
The next time they met… Ye Jian wondered when they would meet again.
After getting into the car, Li Jinnian took out his phone from his pocket and looked at the screen. The scolding was still ongoing. He pursed his lips and placed the phone beside his ear.
“Although you’re not close to your family, you can forget about bringing a shady woman back to the Li family! Li Jinnian, you should have a limit to your disputes with your family. Don’t go overboard. Do you understand?”
Li Jinnian didn’t answer. Old Master Li reprimanded him, “Did you hear that?”
Old Master Li wouldn’t have thought that Li Jinnian didn’t hear a single word he said.
