Chapter 35 Paranoid Retribution
ink I'm not handsome enough, I'll work on improving myself further; and if you believe I'm not wealthy enough, I'll strive for our future!""No, no, no!" Yan Luoxi shook her head even harder this time....Chapter 35: Paranoid Revenge
Li Yi was both relieved and annoyed when Li An suddenly changed his mind. The relief came from the fact that his impulsive younger brother had finally matured, thinking things through before acting; however, he was also irritated because the engagement ceremony preparations were almost complete, and now he would have to inform everyone to cancel it.
Li Haonan's couple and Li Yi all assumed Li An genuinely didn't want to get engaged. Therefore, on this day, they did not return home and had no idea about the commotion at the airport.
After Li An put up a show at the airport, he instructed his subordinates to ensure that any news related to him there wouldn’t be released by the media; otherwise, his parents would certainly give him a good scolding when they found out.
The Li family mansion was currently gathering all of Li An's close friends. Some of them knew about the last-minute change in fiancée, while others assumed that Li An’s fiancée was Sun Lingling and kept calling her “sister-in-law,” making Sun Lingling extremely pleased.
Today, Sun Lingling was overjoyed; to be precise, she had been elated since receiving Li An's call a few days ago.
This girl wasn't stupid. After Li An disappeared for many days and then suddenly called her to propose engagement, she felt both excited and somewhat suspicious. Especially when he repeatedly instructed her not to tell anyone about it, especially his stepmother.
Rich young masters have their quirks; Sun Lingling had already gotten a taste of Li An’s unpredictable personality because of love, so she chose to listen unconditionally to what Li An said. The fact that she and Li An were getting engaged caused such a stir, yet no one in her family knew about it.
These days, Sun Lingling was living in anxiety and anticipation; constantly guessing the truthfulness of Li An's words. It wasn't until this afternoon that she realized Li An hadn’t lied to her.
This was the first time Sun Lingling came to the Li family’s luxurious villa today, and seeing such a mansion-like villa, she knew how ridiculous it would be for her own bungalow-style house to be called a villa.
The high-society family Tonight, Sun Liangliang got to see what a real high-society family looks like.
Compared to her, there are many more beautiful female celebrities from prestigious families who wouldn't have the luck to marry into a family as powerful as the Lis. Yet she managed to gain Lei An's favor; how blessed is she
Edged with joy and satisfaction, Sun Liangliang was ecstatic all night long. She greeted Lei An’s friends gracefully and politely.
Ming Zixi had been bursting to talk to Lei An ever since he saw him at the airport with Sun Liangliang. Now that it was after dinner and Sun Liangliang was upstairs resting, Ming Zixi stared curiously at Lei An, perplexed as he asked, "Brother What's going on here Why am I so confused"
"What did I do What am I causing a commotion about" Sitting relaxedly in his own living room, with one leg stretched out and smoking, Lei An squinted at Ming Zixi.
“Aren’t you planning to get engaged and married to Yan Luoxi” Ming Zixi lowered his voice as he pointed upstairs slyly. “How did this happen then”
"I just got tired of playing with Yan Luoxi and wanted a change in flavor. Is that not okay" Lei An laughed nonchalantly, finally speaking up after returning from the airport.
The entire house was filled with shock and suspicion.
Ming Zixi was nearly driven mad by what Lei An said. "Are you serious or joking"
"Would I joke around like this Y顏落夕 isn't an angel, right Must I be infatuated with her until death Must I marry her and become her loyal subject Ridiculous."
I tell you all, today I completely abandon her. From now on, there will no longer be any trace of her in my life," At this moment, Li An was still immersed in the excitement of what happened at the airport; his expression was somewhat smug.
Shao Junhe clenched his fists and shot up from the sofa, angrily shouting at Li An, "How can you toy with a girl like this Do you know how sad Luo Xi cried at the airport"
"What Are you feeling sorry for her" Li An raised his long eyebrows; his phoenix eyes were filled with provocation.
"Brother, don't meddle," Shao Meizhuo was the happiest person today, even a bit schadenfreude. She quickly pulled Shao Junhe back down and whispered to soothe her brother, "Are you stupid This is between him and Yan Luo夕 here, let's just watch and see what happens."
Ming Zixi really wanted to split open this young master's head right now to take a look at the layers of his brain. Regarding Li An’s feelings for Yan Luo夕 here, as an outsider, he could see it very clearly; could anyone play around like that
This foolish child must have been stimulated by what happened at the airport and is now fixated on revenge.
He gritted his teeth in frustration and tried to persuade him earnestly: "Li An, do you know what you're doing right now If you go apologize to Yan Luo夕 here now, there's still room for reconciliation. But if you continue down this path, you'll make a huge mistake for life."
Li An made an impatient sound of disapproval: "Don't think just because you've changed your gender and started nagging like an old lady that I’ll listen to you."
"Li An, all these things are said out of concern for you," Ming Zixi placed the teacup he was holding heavily on the glass coffee table with great authority.
Lian snorted lightly, saying, "Are you planning to break the coffee table If so, I'll make you pay for it."
Ming Zixi immediately changed his approach, acting like a kind big brother. "I'm only doing this because I care about you. Who am I to know Yan Luoxi Lian, if you abandon her, wouldn’t it be better to keep her around so that you can enjoy the benefits of being married to two women"
Lian laughed until he coughed. "I'm afraid I cannot handle such beauty."
Ming Zixi stared at Lian intently. "Why don't you call her first and calm her down"
Lian gave Ming Zixi a bone-chilling sorrowful look. "You’ve completely transformed, haven’t you"
Ming Zixi roared back. "Lian! One day, you will regret it so much that your intestines turn green and you won't even know how to cry."
"Rest assured; I wouldn't come crying to you even if I did," Lian said nonchalantly as he flicked his cigarette.
Yan Luoxi, who was looking around anxiously outside the gates of the Li family villa, felt a mix of sorrow, anger, and hurt. She didn’t know whether she should enter or quietly leave.
As she stood hesitating at the gate, unsure what to do next, someone in uniform walked out from inside the Li residence and sized her up carefully before asking tentatively, "You... You are Big Brother Yan's daughter, aren't you Little Luoxi"
"Eh Who are you" Yan Luoxi stared at the familiar-looking guard warily and took a step back.ully, but she still lifted her head bravely to look ahead, beginning a new journey.Ran Xu took Yan Luoxi out in a hurry, but he had already meticulously arranged their itinerary beforehand. He planned...
