Chapter 570: Chapter 570: Trying to Steal a Chicken Only to Lose the Rice
Nan Qiao sat in the car, eating an orange.
Li Yehan was driving, murmuring, “Qiaoqiao, later you can stay in the hospital for a few days, just as a rest. If Uncle’s family invites you for events, you can use this as an excuse to decline.”
Nan Qiao laughed, “Li Yehan, you’re really clever.”
“Are the people on Zheng Qinnian’s side enough? If not, I’ll find some experts to look into this, we must get to the bottom of it.”
“Don’t worry, it’s not just him at the lab, there are other professors there too.”
Li Yehan was eager to get there, considering Nan Qiao had been startled, he decided to take her to the hospital first.
Li Yehan took Nan Qiao to the hospital, Grandpa Bai and others also arrived at the hospital.
Nan Qiao was forced to lie on the hospital bed, and her family hurried in.
Chen Xinwan: “My poor Qiaoqiao, you’ve been so frightened.”
Bai Zhenyang: “How did a wild horse get into the stable? It must be someone’s deliberate attempt to harm.”
Grandpa Bai: “Zhenyang, aren’t you stating the obvious? It definitely was someone’s deliberate attempt to harm our Qiaoqiao! Not maybe, but certainly!”
Granny Bai also said, “Find the culprit as soon as possible, such a person is just wasting air by living.”
Nan Qiao listened to her family’s speculations, she realized everyone pointed the finger at Li Tianyi.
Chen Xinwan said unhappily, “The person who wants to harm Qiaoqiao at Li Tianyi’s housewarming banquet might just be next to him.”
Bai Zhenyang: “Wanwan, you’d better say less, Uncle Li will be here soon. If he hears, I’m afraid he won’t be able to take it.”
Grandpa Bai: “When Old Mr. Li comes, I’ll have a chat with him and ask about his relationship with Li Tianyi.”
Granny Bai: “Is there any need to ask? They don’t live together, nor do they have contact. With so many years passed, who can speak for sure about the issues between them?”
Everyone fell silent.
At this moment, Old Mr. Li arrived with Uncle Fu.
Old Mr. Li hurried in anxiously, Uncle Fu following closely behind him.
“Qiaoqiao, how are you feeling?” Old Mr. Li was worried sick, panicking.
Nan Qiao must be okay, and the baby in her belly must be okay too!
Li Yehan stepped forward, promptly took Old Mr. Li and led him aside.
Old Mr. Li didn’t ask why, he knew there must be a reason for Li Yehan’s actions.
Old Mr. Li followed Li Yehan out, remaining silent throughout.
The two went to the end of the corridor, where there was a small window with a view outside.
A leaf fell from a tree, as if a life was about to slip away.
Old Mr. Li saw this scene, feeling a bit indescribable.
“Yehan, regarding today’s matter, I will definitely give Qiaoqiao an explanation, don’t worry.”
“Grandpa, it’s not only explaining to Qiaoqiao but also giving Uncle an explanation. The incident happened during his housewarming banquet, he bears some responsibility too.”
Old Mr. Li: “…”
Indeed, Li Yehan blamed Li Tianyi.
Old Mr. Li understood everything quite well.
Old Mr. Li sighed deeply: “Yehan, are you implying that your uncle harmed Qiaoqiao?”
“I think Uncle needs to clear himself of suspicion.” Li Yehan spoke indifferently.
Old Mr. Li still heard it, Li Yehan blamed Li Tianyi for hosting the housewarming banquet.
Hosting it was fine, but then this incident happened, leaving Nan Qiao almost hurt.
“I will talk to your uncle about this.”
Old Mr. Li returned to the hospital room and greeted the Bai family members.
“It’s all because of the housewarming banquet your second uncle hosted, when I get back I’ll give him a stern lesson. On the way here, he called me, asking where Qiaoqiao is. He wants to formally apologize to her.”
Nan Qiao lay on the hospital bed, remembering what Li Yehan instructed her, she remained silent.
Seeing the Bai family members unwilling to speak, Old Mr. Li awkwardly left.
After Old Mr. Li left, Nan Qiao spoke.
“This matter has nothing to do with Grandpa Li, he didn’t want this to happen either. Grandpa, Grandma, Dad, Mom, I’m really okay.”
Chen Xinwan sat beside the bed, distressed: “Qiaoqiao, you’ve been so frightened, listen to mom, you should stay in the hospital under observation.”
Bai Zhenyang: “Health is the most important, Qiaoqiao, listen to your mom.”
Nan Qiao looked at her family’s worried eyes, finally decided to stay in the hospital.
…
Old Mr. Li arrived at Li Tianyi’s house.
The Li Tianyi family of four were seated in the living room, upon learning Old Mr. Li had come, the whole family was tense.
“Dad, you’re here. How’s Qiaoqiao? Has she gone to the hospital? Which hospital is she in, tell me, I’ll go see her.” Li Tianyi said sincerely.
Old Mr. Li looked very displeased, “You’d better not bother Qiaoqiao anymore, she was frightened and is still in the hospital. You know Qiaoqiao is the Bai family’s darling, a treasured jewel loved by all of the Bai Family. And you insisted on holding the housewarming banquet at the horse stable.”
The reproachful tone made Li Tianyi feel uncomfortable.
It came down to blaming him.
Li Tianyi dared not retort, whatever Old Mr. Li said, that’s what it is.
No matter the words, he had to listen, swallow them.
“Dad, I know it’s all my fault, I’m to blame.”
Old Mr. Li seized the chance to end, not continuing to criticize Li Tianyi.
“Tianyi, Qiaoqiao said this matter has nothing to do with you, luckily she is alright. However, regarding Ningning’s friends, I hope you as parents can intervene.”
Old Mr. Li continued, “That girl named Yu Wei speaks indiscriminately, affecting our family harmony.”
“Ningning, did you hear what your grandpa said? Yu Wei seems to have a bad character, you should be careful not to interact with her anymore.”
Li Ning bowed his head, “Grandpa, Dad, I understand.”
Old Mr. Li hummed, stood up and left.
…
Only after Old Mr. Li completely left, did the family atmosphere slightly improve.
Li Ning said unhappily, “Dad, why does Grandpa even manage who I befriend? Do I need family approval for the friends I make?”
Li Tianyi: “Your grandpa is also thinking for your good, Yu Wei’s words were indeed inappropriate. As you brought her, the blame naturally falls on you.”
Li Ning felt helpless and frustrated, “Grandpa only cares about Nan Qiao, about Li Yehan, not about our family.”
Li Ning walked away angrily.
Li Chengyan stood up, “I’ll go talk to Ningning.”
Only Li Tianyi and Mei Tian Sha Zi remained in the living room.
Mei Tian Sha Zi spoke discontentedly, “Things didn’t work out, and we stirred up such trouble, it was really not worth it!”
“I didn’t expect Li Yehan’s archery to be so accurate, let’s not make any rash moves for now. Find a chance to go out and check the base today.”
Mei Tian Sha Zi hummed, stood up and left.
