Li Mufang paused, "But Uncle..."
"Don’t worry! Haven’t you noticed that although your mother was angry this ti, she did not vent with harsh words or obstruct him? She has her own plans in her heart. Letting Weihuan go with your cousin this ti does no harm, don’t worry!"
A trace of confusion flashed in Li Mufang’s eyes, but what Lu Yinchu said seed to make so sense!
Previously, when Li Weihuan wanted to leave, her mother held on tightly, but now that he’s divorced, she doesn’t stop him from leaving. Why?
"Uncle? What is going on? What has happened?"
Lu Yinchu’s brow furrowed slightly, he puffed out a ring of smoke, and began, "This is what happened. So ti ago, I gave your mother an agreent to transfer 20 percent of the shares of KING Group to Weihuan..."
"..." Li Mufang was stunned. "Uncle, what... what did you say..."
"Regarding Nanxi, although Weihuan made so mistakes, no matter what, I did take her away from him in the end and hurt Weihuan. The guilt in my heart can’t be hidden. I’ve been wanting to make it up to him sohow, but I’ve struggled to find a way. In the end, I could only use such a straightforward thod!"
Lu Yinchu paused, then continued, "The reason why I gave it to your mother is that, in my heart, despite all her faults, she is a mother after all. She wouldn’t harm her own son! So, I figure, your mother not particularly stopping Weihuan this ti, is probably to show so respect. In other words, to show so respect for those twenty percent shares!"
"But that money is in my mother’s hands, what if..." Li Mufang was still not at ease.
"Rest assured, except for Weihuan, no one else can use that money. But this money, no matter what, must end up in Weihuan’s hands. But you and I both understand Weihuan. If he knew I gave him the money, he definitely would not accept it... So, Mufang, I need your help with sothing..."
...
Li Xiangchen and Li Weihuan left in Lu Yinchu’s car.
Because the place where Li Xiangchen is currently living is relatively remote, Lu Yinchu arranged for them to stay temporarily in an apartnt in the downtown area.
Li Xiangchen accepted this. If it were just him, he could have refused. But now that Li Weihuan is with him, and Weihuan’s work is in the city center, he can’t have his son driving an hour to and from work every day!
It was too much for his heart to bear!
Regarding Weihuan leaving with him, Li Xiangchen was deeply moved at heart, but really thought his son was being irrational, yet he couldn’t stop him.
He understood his son’s character after so many years.
For lunch, Lu Yinchu had a few dishes delivered from Yipin Residence, bought so wine, and the three had a little drink together.
Tis like this haven’t been around for a while. Lu Yinchu rembered once when he was about seventeen, Li Xiangchen had a quarrel with Qi Qun and was drinking at a small restaurant to vent his mood.
Weihuan was worried about his father and called Lu Yinchu. Lu Yinchu brought Weihuan along to find him, and so, at seventeen, he and ten-year-old Weihuan ended up having drinks together!
Ti flies, the young ones have grown old. The ones who were children grew up. The scenery and the people seed the sa, but the feeling was different!
All three of them had quite a bit to drink, and were a bit tipsy. As they chatted, Weihuan got tipsy and went to the bathroom. Li Xiangchen laughed at him, "This boy, he really can’t hold his liquor like his old man!"
Lu Yinchu chuckled, "Being able to drink a lot isn’t necessarily a good thing. And not being able to drink much isn’t necessarily bad. Besides, drinking can cause problems, so it’s better to drink less!"
Li Xiangchen nodded, "That’s right, because of my health problems, I’ve been controlling my alcohol and smoking, but today is special, I’m happy... Yinchu, do you know? The cage of a thirty-year marriage has made tired, ntally and physically. I’m finally free now, I’m truly happy!"
Li Xiangchen said, "Now I realised that marriage, as many people say, is really like a pair of shoes. No matter what kind of shoes, the most important thing is that they fit. But I’ve been wearing a pair of shoes that don’t fit for thirty years! Ha!"
"Cousin..." Lu Yinchu looked worried and frowned at him.
"No need..." Li Xiangchen waved his hand, "You don’t need to comfort , I’m really fine. I don’t have any feelings for Qi Qun anymore, even if I did, these thirty years of long life have worn it out. Now, I’m just sighing, I’m just venting..."
Lu Yinchu frowned, did not speak.
"Yinchu, your cousin has ssed up these thirty years, but I’m grateful you guys never gave up on ..."
Li Xiangchen was really drunk, he took a sip of wine, and continued sowhat sadly, "All these years, Grandpa always looked after , uncle always treated as before, and you, even though you never said anything, I know you put a lot of effort into Mufang, Muyun, and Weihuan. You gave them a lot of support in their careers! I am exactly two years older than you, but as a cousin, I really don’t think I’ve been up to the mark!"
"Cousin, don’t talk like that, we are family, these words are too much like from a stranger!"
Li Xiangchen laughed, but felt an unusual bitterness in his heart. He nodded, "Yes, we are family! Family, how nice, I still have family..."
Sothing made Li Xiangchen think, he squinted his eyes and asked Lu Yinchu, "By the way, speaking of family, now that we have added Nanxi, since you and Nanxi have already got the marriage certificate, why haven’t you held the wedding ceremony yet? Is it because of Weihuan?"
"No!" Lu Yinchu shook his head, "I’m just waiting to choose a good date. If possible, I plan to hold it this month!"
"Really? That’s great!" Li Xiangchen smiled, "Finally, you’ll be a married man as well. You and Nanxi have been married for a while now, I keep forgetting to congratulate you! Nanxi is a good girl, you have to cherish her!"
"Yes, cousin!" Lu Yinchu gave a quiet laugh, "By the way, I have good news, I forgot to tell you cousin!"
"Hmm? What?"
Lu Yinchu held a cigarette between his fingertips. A gentle light wafted in his eyes, his gaze becoming deeper and darker, as if it could see into people’s hearts!
He said, "Nanxi is pregnant. Six weeks! Cousin, I’m going to be a father!"
When Li Weihuan ca back from the restroom after sobering up, he just walked in the door, and heard Lu Yinchu saying this.
...
By the ti they finished their al, it was nearing three in the afternoon. Lu Yinchu had been drinking so naturally he couldn’t drive, he called Mo Yan to co and pick him up.
While waiting for Mo Yan, Lu Yinchu and Li Weihuan strolled around on a small path under the apartnt building.
Because these two n’s looks were just too stunning, occasionally the eyes of pedestrians would drift over, but none of them stared too boldly.
When they arrived at a deserted place, the two stopped, turned to face each other, and Weihuan asked, "Uncle, are you sure you don’t want to take off your coat? To be able to move freely!"
Lu Yinchu laughed, hooking one finger. "Considering I am the senior here, I’ll let you go first!"
"In that case, Uncle, I won’t hold back!" After finishing, Li Weihuan lunged forward, went one step ahead, and swung his arm. His fist had already hit Lu Yinchu’s face!
