The vicious male partner is pregnant with the villain's cub
Chapter 42 The Secret of Li Xingzhi (1)
Su Ran stared straight at Li Xingzhi, but his slightly trembling lips revealed his nervousness.
As if he couldn't bear the look in his eyes, Li Xingzhi looked away.
Obviously, at this moment, even he himself didn't know how to answer this question.
Su Ran couldn't help but said, "All right, do you really don't even want your own son?"
"I……"
Seeing that Li Xingzhi was hesitating, Su Ran quietly reached out and grabbed his hands, eyes full of hope.
"And me, okay. No matter what kind of knots you have ever had, for me, don't be prejudiced against this child, okay?"
child……
The image of the woman screaming heart-piercingly flashed across my mind, and a trace of fear suddenly flashed in Li Xingzhi's eyes.
He took a step back uncontrollably, "Of course, I..."
The unbearable scenes in his mind were like a lingering nightmare, Li Xingzhi looked at his lover, still speechless.
"Do it..."
Su Ran's heart was stabbed by his unconscious retreat, and she felt a dull pain.
He waited for a long time before the man said, "I'm sorry, I have to think about it."
Then, he watched Li Xingzhi turn around and walk out of his sight step by step.
Looking down at her empty hands, Su Ran stood alone at the stairs, looking blankly at the empty platform ahead...
[Su Ran: The video call failed. 】
[Su Ran: The voice call failed. 】
[Su Ran: OK, let's talk, shall we? 】
It has been a whole day, and Su Ran has been looking for Li Xingzhi on WeChat, but the other party has not responded at all.
He clenched the phone tightly, with his thumb hesitating whether to press Li Xingzhi's phone number.
Forget it, it would be better to clarify this kind of thing in person.
Su Ran made up her mind and immediately went back to her room and changed her clothes.
He hurried out and was stopped by He Meili at the door.
"Of course, where are you going? It's almost time for lunch."
"Mom, I have something to do with Xingzhi. You can eat first. If it's too late, I can eat outside."
Su Ran put on her shoes and went out the door.
During the confinement period in the confinement club, Su Ran would stand on the balcony at most to enjoy the scenery.At this moment, I was finally able to truly walk on the street, breathing the fresh and free air outside, and felt refreshed.
He came to Hongyuan Building and went straight to the CEO's office.It's a pity that Jiang Fang told him that Li Xingzhi did not come to the company today, and he was still in Li's mansion.
Li family?
Although he and Li Xingzhi have reached the point of discussing marriage, he has never been to Li's house.
Recalling the address the man had told him, Su Ran made up her mind and decided to visit Li Xingzhi's home in person.
Today, when he travels, he always takes the subway.But when he came to the subway entrance, he saw two or three girls holding a painting in their hands.
"Wow, he draws so beautifully!"
"Yeah, the key is that he is still so handsome. I really want to invite him home to paint for me full-time."
"That's possible. He only charges 20 yuan for a painting. I see you, you can take out 1000 yuan a day and you can cover him..."
Su Ran looked in the direction they came, and found a lonely figure sitting in front of the easel.
Isn't that person...
Su Ran's heart skipped a beat, and she walked over quickly.
The sitting person was laying out the drawing paper, when he saw a pair of feet stopped in front of him, he opened his mouth and asked, "Excuse me, do you want to draw—"
He met Su Ran's eyes.
"What are you doing here? Zim."
Su Ran couldn't believe that Yan Yixing, the second young master of the Yan family, one of the three wealthy families in Nancheng, would set up a painting booth here.
"It's you? Su Ran."
Yan Yixing obviously didn't expect him to appear here, his eyes were full of astonishment.
Su Ran looked at him sitting on the low stool, and there was this iron moon cake box beside his feet. There were some banknotes scattered in it. It was obvious that he earned it by sitting here and painting.
He squatted down, "Zi Xing, why did you come here to paint? Does your family agree?"
No matter how harsh Yan Yichen is to his brother, it won't make Yan Yixing come to the street to sell paintings, right?
Yan Yixing's eyes flickered for a moment, and he turned his head slightly, "I...I just have nothing to do, so I'm here to do something for entertainment."
He faltered and hawed what he said, Su Ran looked at him with a guilty face, and guessed in his heart that it must not be that simple.
After looking at the surrounding environment, this is a lively square in Nancheng, surrounded by shopping malls, and the flow of people is very large.
Yan Yixing was very clever in picking this stippling painting.
Su Ran simply said to him: "It's almost twelve o'clock now, why don't we have a meal together, shall we?"
After hesitating for a few seconds, Yan Yixing, who has no instinct to reject people, still nodded, "Okay."
After Su Ran helped Yan Yixing pack his "money-making" business, the two had dinner at a nearby hot pot restaurant.
As soon as he was seated, Su Ran opened his mouth and asked the waiter to give him a spicy soup, but Yan Yixing stopped him.
"You just finished confinement right now? You can't eat spicy food yet, so eat something lighter, just have a clear soup base."
Su Ran took a special look at him, then nodded and said to the waiter, "Then just have a soup base."
The two were silent for a while.
Su Ran couldn't figure it out, why Yan Yixing's attitude was a little strange when they met this time.
"Yixing, speaking of it, are you busy recently? You haven't come to see me for a long time."
It's a pity that he couldn't go out because of confinement. He also tried to call or send messages to Yan Yixing, but the other party kept replying that something was wrong.
Looking at it now, Yan Yixing must have had something that he didn't know about.
Yan Yixing stared at the menu, his mouth trembled, but finally he just spit out: "It's nothing, just some things to deal with recently."
No, if it was Yan Yixing in normal times, he would definitely not be evasive like this.
Leaning forward slightly, Su Ran showed concern in his eyes, "Yixing, don't worry about anything, you can tell me."
Yan Yixing hesitated for a moment, then shook his head again, "It's fine."
Su Ran stepped forward and covered his hand on the table, "Zim, we are friends. If you really encounter any trouble, please tell me, and I will definitely help you. If not, I can find someone to help you." In short, you should know how influential he is in Nancheng."
Indeed, there was nothing that Li Xingzhi couldn't do in Nancheng.Su Ran is now Li Xingzhi's fiancé, with his help, no matter what trouble Yan Yixing has, it will not be a problem to solve it.
Su Ran's concern was not fake, Yan Yixing's heart was touched.
After hesitating for a long time, he asked slowly, "Su Ran, you said we are friends. Then, will you lie to me? "
Su Ran was stopped by his question.
"Cheat you? Why should I lie to you?"
Yan Yixing just stared at him and didn't speak.
But Su Ran smelled an unusual smell, why did Yan Yixing ask such a question?
He asked himself that nothing could have fooled Yan Yixing, except...
Thinking of this, Su Ran opened her eyes slightly, "Yixing, you..."
Yan Yixing nodded slightly, "I heard it."
He also looked directly at Su Ran, and said word by word: "I heard what you and my brother said in the hospital that day."
"how is this possible?"
Su Ran got excited and accidentally knocked over the tea that the waiter poured into the cup.
The tea dripped down the table and onto the floor, but neither of them cared about it, they just looked at each other directly.
"That day, I was going to leave. But before I left, I wanted to wash my hands first, so I went into the bathroom. At that time, my brother came in to look for you. "
Yan Yixing told the truth about that day, "I didn't want to eavesdrop, but when I was about to open the door, I heard you say that Lin Hong is the real second young master of the Yan family."
It was this sentence that made him choose to stand in the bathroom and quietly listen to them tell all the truth.
Su Ran didn't expect that Yan Yixing was still in the room that day.He couldn't see at that time, so he never thought that Yan Yixing would not leave there.
At this moment, Su Ran figured out Yan Yixing's recent series of abnormal actions.
He asked eagerly: "Zi Xing, you probably didn't explain this to your father, did you?"
Thinking of Yan Yixing's kind and innocent character, maybe he would really confess his and Lin Hong's identities to Yan Yuanshan.
Yan Yixing shook his head, "I really wanted to go and explain this to my dad, but he's not here now."
If Yan Yuanshan hadn't gone abroad, maybe everything would be revealed by now.
Su Ran grabbed his hand, and her tone was a little anxious, "Yi Xing, don't be impulsive. This matter is not as simple as you think."
What he was afraid of was that if someone like Lin Hong were to change his identity, he might try to kill Yan Yixing according to the plot in the original book.
"How complicated is that?"
Yan Yixing smiled sadly, "I know, you all have your own goals, my brother thinks that no one will come to compete with him for success. What about you?"
"I?"
Su Ran was stunned.
"Don't you have your purpose?"
Yan Yixing broke away from his hand, and said with a hurt face: "Su Ran, you know these things but you don't tell me, and you have to make an appointment with my brother so that no one can tell. What you are doing is to get revenge on Lin Hong?"
When he heard that Su Ran and Yan Yichen made an "agreement" in the hospital that day, God knows how much his heart ached.
One is his "big brother" who has been living under the same roof since he was a child, and the other is Su Ran, whom he regards as a lifelong friend.The two of them just carried him behind their backs, quietly concealing the truth of his life experience.
Su Ran was just stunned for a few seconds, and quickly explained: "That's not the case, Zixing, you misunderstood."
No matter how much he hated Lin Hong, he wouldn't just think about taking revenge on him.But Yan Yixing didn't believe it, "Su Ran, tell me, if you didn't want to take revenge on Lin Hong, why did you choose to hide me when you knew the truth about my life?"
This question stumped Su Ran.He couldn't tell the other party that he was transmigrated into the book, so he knew all the plots in advance.And these people are just characters in the book.
No, if you say that, Yan Yixing will definitely think that he is sick.
Having made up his mind, Su Ran turned quickly in his mind, and finally he came up with a set of words.
"Yi Xing, listen to me. I also inadvertently discovered the clues from Lin Hong's file and some information he leaked before. After I knew about the fact that you switched identities with him, I also thought about it. It's been a long time. How can I not hurt you? This is my biggest concern."
Su Ran said sincerely, Yan Yixing couldn't help but keep looking at him. "Finally, I figured it out. Zixing is such a kind person, if you know your life experience, you will be very sad. And Lin Hong, yes, I have a problem with him, but that's it, I know him better Look at my ex-fiancé Chen Chen, Lin Hong can dump him once he turns his back on him. If he finds out, he is actually the second young master of the Yan family..."
Su Ran paused for a moment, then continued: "With his narrow-minded way of doing things, I'm afraid he will be against you."
"Bad for me?"
Yan Yixing obviously didn't expect Su Ran to think of this, "You mean, he will take revenge on me then?"
"Yes." Su Ran nodded quickly, "It's not impossible. Think about it, in his opinion, you have occupied his status as a wealthy young master and lived in the Yan family for so many years. Do you think he can hate you? ?"
This Yan Yixing really didn't think about it, "But he and I are both victims of this matter!"
If he could choose, he would never want to live in the Yan family for all these years.
Su Ran shook her head, "Yixing, you are so naive. In his opinion, it is because of your existence that he has lived in a fishing village for more than 20 years. This kind of hatred, besides venting to you, he can find who?"
For a while, Yan Yixing was also speechless.
In the end, Su Ran said softly, "Yixing, everything I do is for your own good."
Yan Yixing stared at him blankly for several minutes, then suddenly, he lowered his head, his words were full of self-blame.
"I believe in you, Su Ran. I didn't think so much myself. I always thought that you wanted to take revenge on Lin Hong..."
What made him so sad was that he thought that in this matter, everyone just wanted to use him, and no one really cared about him.
Seeing Yan Yixing like this, Su Ran felt sad too.
"It doesn't matter, anyone who encounters a situation like yours will definitely panic."
Yes, after living for more than 20 years, I was told that I was not born to my parents for no reason, but was secretly changed.Who can bear this matter?
Su Ran patted his hand lightly, "Yixing, I just hope you don't misunderstand. From the beginning to the end, I never thought of lying to you, let alone hurting you."
Yan Yixing held his hand instead, "Su Ran, I believe in you."
He calmed down, and then said firmly: "However, I decided to wait for my dad to come back, and I will explain this matter to him clearly."
"you……"
Yan Yixing's mouth curled into a confident smile, "Don't worry, I will protect myself. In fact, if I keep concealing it like this, no matter whether it is to Lin Hong, to me, or to the Yan family and the Lin family, no one will be concerned. fair."
"Lin Hong and I were both victims of what happened back then. However, my dad, as well as the Lin family's parents, have the right to know who their real son is."
There is no doubt about this.
Su Ran also knows that the best way is to tell the truth. As for the future of the two of them, everything is unknown.
only……
Su Ran worried: "Yi Xing, I know that you have not lived happily in the Yan family these years. No one can tell who is the favored darling of the heavens, you or Lin Hong. But the only thing I am worried about is, That is, after he regains his identity, he will hurt you."
A good person like Yan Yixing should live a smooth life instead of suffering such a rough fate.
Yan Yixing comforted him instead, "Su Ran, don't think too much. I'm a grown man, so I can protect myself naturally. Also, after you've said that, can I be careless about Lin Hong?"
Since Yan Yixing said so confidently, Su Ran had no choice but to believe him.
"Okay, but you have to be careful about everything."
"Ah."
Yan Yixing finally showed his first sincere smile today.
At this time, the waiter brought up the bottom of the pot and all the meat dishes.The two of them talked for so long, and when they saw the food, they realized that they were already hungry.
After eating more than half of it, Su Ran suddenly remembered something, so she said it by the way.
"By the way, are you in contact with that Liu Xia now? He came to my house a while ago and asked about you."
Originally, it was just Su Ran's casual question, but Yan Yixing's hand holding the ball stopped suddenly, and the hot ball just fell back to the bottom of the pot, splashing a little soup.
"Sorry, are you okay?"
Yan Yixing quickly took out a tissue and handed it to Su Ran.
"I'm fine,"
Su Ran wiped the splashed area on the table, and couldn't help but become curious, "Zi Xing, are you really with him..."
A long time ago, Su Ran felt that Liu Xia seemed to be around Yan Yixing all the time.When he asked that question a while ago, Su Ran sometimes thought about it, and wondered if the relationship between these two people might not be that simple.
Yan Yixing moved his eyes slightly, and just said softly: "No more, we have no contact now."
Su Ran looked at him as if he didn't seem to be lying, and didn't think too much about it, "It's fine if we don't contact him, then Liu Xia doesn't think he's a serious person."
He didn't realize that Yan Yixing didn't speak in silence, but just ate the dishes by himself, taking the gossip he heard from others as table jokes.
"You don't know, last time I heard a certain boss say that Liu Xia has to change several girlfriends a year, such as beauty pageant champions, movie stars, anyway, as long as she is a beautiful woman, she can't escape. His 'clutch'..."
"Oh……"
Yan Yixing stared at his empty bowl, concealing the loneliness in his heart...
It was a white hospital bed, on which lay a haggard woman.
Li Xingzhi stood there, looking at him coldly.
At this time, a very charming man came over, and Li Xingzhi saw a newborn child in his arms.
He couldn't see the child's face clearly, but he heard the man's sharp voice, "Look, this is my son. His surname is Xue, Xue of Xue Zhenghua."
The body of the woman on the bed shook violently. She stared at the man resentfully, but was speechless.
At this time, the man laughed again, "What about you? Look at what you gave birth to, and his surname is not Xue at all. You want to rob me, why, what qualifications do you have to rob me?"
The woman on the bed trembled even more. She struggled desperately, trying to get up from the bed, but there was nothing she could do.
All he could do was watch the man holding the child, laughing mockingly one after another.
At this moment, the man looked away from the woman on the bed and looked directly at Li Xingzhi.
Inexplicably, a trace of fear emerged in Li Xingzhi's heart.
The man said, "Look, you don't look like your father at all. The one in my arms is Xue Zhenghua's real son."
Li Xingzhi's eyes moved down, and at this moment, he finally saw the face of the child in the man's arms clearly.
There were no facial features on that face, only a bloody mouth, and he was about to pounce on him with his mouth open——
"do not want!"
Li Xingzhi sat up abruptly.
The familiar decoration in the room made him wake up in an instant. He was panting. He reached out and touched his forehead, which was covered in sweat.
The wall clock on the wall was ticking, and when Li Xingzhi looked up, the hour hand was pointing to "2".
A little confused whether it was day or night, he lifted the quilt and got out of bed, and as soon as he opened the curtains, the strong sunlight made him unable to open his eyes.
It turned out that he just took a nap.
The scorching sun of early summer shone on his body, but his heart was cold.
It's been a long time since I had this dream...
Li Xingzhi calmed down, walked to the bedside table and picked up his cell phone, only to find that there were several missed calls.
All the callers were Su Ran.
He turned off the phone screen and chose to put the phone back on the bedside table.
After taking a shower, as soon as he opened the door, the butler was already waiting for him at the door.
"Master, you have guests."
Are there any guests at this time?
Li Xingzhi frowned, he rarely had visitors in his house, except Liu Xia.But now it was working time, he thought Liu Xia would never be free to come over.
He went downstairs, only to see a slender figure.
"Do it!"
It's Su Ran.
Li Xingzhi held onto the handrail, but hesitated to walk down.
Su Ran stood up, and the two of them looked at each other across most of the stairs.
In the end, Li Xingzhi walked down.
"Sorry, I went to your company to look for you. Jiang Fang said that you were still at home when you were not at work. I had to come here to look for you."
Li Xingzhi sounded a little sad, but Su Ran's words were a little cautious.In fact, he doesn't have to be like this, there are already a lot of wedding things in this room.
Before yesterday, Li Xingzhi even told other servants in the family that Su Ran would be another male master of the Li family mansion in the future.
Seeing that Li Xingzhi didn't speak, Su Ran thought it was because he was minding that he came to look for him without authorization, and explained: "After I rang the doorbell, it was...it was Zhou Shunchang who opened the door, he recognized me, so he let me in. "
To be honest, Su Ran was also very embarrassed when he saw Zhou Shunchang just now.Recalling a few months ago, Li Xingzhi used Zhou Shunchang as a cover, and kept using the identity of "Yuan Dian" to date himself online.
"It's okay, sit down and let's talk slowly."
After hiding for a whole day, what should come still has to be faced.
Li Xingzhi was already mentally prepared, and Su Ran didn't want to waste any more time turning left and right, so he went straight in: "Xingzhi, should you give me an explanation now?"
"I……"
Li Xingzhi looked at him, opened his mouth several times to speak, but finally couldn't speak.
Just when Su Ran waited again and again, and his patience was about to run out, Li Xingzhi stood up suddenly, "Let me take you to a place."
The place where Li Xingzhi said is not far away, it is in the Nancheng Cemetery, which is less than an hour's drive away.
He followed Li Xingzhi slowly, and finally came to a tree.
A tombstone stood there quietly.
Su Ran took a closer look and found that the owner of the tomb was Li Xiangling.And the photo inlaid on the tombstone shows a middle-aged woman whose face is [-]% to [-]% similar to Li Xingzhi.
"This is……"
Su Ran looked at Li Xingzhi, who nodded.
"She is my mother."
Li Xingzhi's mother?
Su Ran noticed a special detail, "Your mother has the same surname as you?"
Li Xingzhi's eyes suddenly became sad, "Yes, I follow my mother's surname."
Su Ran was a little surprised. He didn't expect that Li Xingzhi took his mother's surname.
Seeing that Su Ran didn't speak any more, Li Xingzhi couldn't help holding his hand, and said in a low voice: "Of course, I know you must have many questions in your heart from yesterday to now. Now, I'll tell you everything... "
In the afternoon of early summer, although it is a little hot, there is a breeze.The cicadas in the tree screamed, and Li Xingzhi began to tell a story about the past belonging to the Li family...
The Li family has a history of more than 100 years in Nancheng.As early as the 20s, the ancestors of the Li family started their business and became a wealthy household in Nancheng.
It is a pity that the descendants of the Li family have withered for generations, and there are even cases where the descendants voluntarily left the family and went overseas to study abroad.
In the generation of great-grandfather beyond Li Xing, there are no sons who can inherit the family business.
In order to have successors, Li Xingzhi's great-grandfather established a rule: All descendants surnamed Li will receive a huge sum of money when they reach the age of three.
This rule sounds strange, but it can ensure that the blood of the Li family will be passed on forever.Because even if a daughter is born, a child born to a daughter with a foreign surname will still change back to the surname "Li" for the sake of profit.
Generation after generation, until the generation of his grandfather other than Li Xing, he only gave birth to a daughter.
The huge Hongyuan was handed over to Li Xingzhi's mother Li Xiangling.
Fortunately, although she is a daughter, Li Xiangling has been gifted since she was a child.Not only is she no worse than men in everything she does in sports, but even after graduating from university she joined Hongyuan, her performance won the praise of Li Xingzhi's grandfather.
Soon, Li Xiangling reached the age where she wanted to start a family.
A lot of rich men from Nancheng came to propose marriage, but Li Xiangling didn't like all of them, but finally chose the manager of a small department in Hongyuan.
This man was Li Xingzhi's father, Xue Zhenghua.
Xue Zhenghua is hardworking and smart, and he is also tall and handsome.The only thing that Li Xingzhi's grandfather was dissatisfied with was that Xue Zhenghua's family was poor, and that he and Li Xiangling were not in the right family.
But Li Xiangling couldn't stop her from insisting on it. In the end, the two of them got married smoothly, and Xue Zhenghua officially joined Li's family.
Hearing this, Su Ran was secretly speechless. Isn't this the plot of "Su Ran" and Chen Chen in the original book?
Sure enough, the life after marriage was considered happy at the beginning.A year later, their son was born.
Because it is a marriage, the child must have the surname of Li Xiangling, so her father named his grandson: Li Xingzhi.
After the birth of her son, Li Xiangling not only decided not to have another child, but also did not choose to take care of her husband and raise her children at home, but continued to be a grand sovereign.
This made Xue Zhenghua dissatisfied.
He is from the Li family, that's right.Although Li Xingzhi couldn't follow his own surname Xue, he had to follow his wife's surname Li.But Xue Zhenghua always thought that after having his first child, Li Xiangling might have a few more children, and one of them could have his surname.Moreover, the wife can start to retreat to the second line, and Hongyuan will be hosted by him.
It's a pity that Li Xingzhi's grandfather and Li Xiangling are both firmly in control of Hongyuan's power.
At this time, some rumors from the outside world also began to break into Li Xiangling's ears.
Someone said that he saw Xue Zhenghua fooling around with women late at night in a nightclub.
Some people said that Xue Zhenghua often went to a certain widow's residence on weekends.
Others said that Xue Zhenghua bought a house somewhere and raised a lover...
All of this started to make the couple who had a grudge start to quarrel.
From the time Li Xingzhi could remember, what he saw most often was his mother sternly scolding his father, and then the two of them fought in the room.
"The most serious one was when my mother tried to hit him with an ashtray, but she accidentally hit me on the head."
Li Xingzhi spoke lightly, but Su Ran's whole heart ached.
Li Xingzhi clenched his hand, looked directly at Li Xiangling's tombstone, and continued.
This seemingly inseparable marriage has never disintegrated.
I don't know whether Xue Zhenghua was reluctant to part with the glory and wealth of the Li family, or Li Xiangling couldn't swallow this breath all the time.
After Li Xing went to elementary school, he couldn't see his father all day long.
Xue Zhenghua didn't go home directly.
It was rumored that he had hired a male celebrity outside, and now he was on fire.
And not long after, Li Xiangling was diagnosed with brain cancer.
For the Li family, this was like a bolt from the blue.
Li Xingzhi remembers the last moments of Li Xiangling's life.He often saw his mother lying on that white hospital bed, relying on various instruments to maintain a weak life.
And he will always clearly remember that day, he got [-] points in two exams, and was taking the test papers to the hospital to show to Li Xiangling, to make her happy.
At this time, a charming man came in with a child in his arms.
Li Xingzhi didn't know that man.
However, Li Xiangling, who was lying on the bed with half-closed eyes, suddenly became excited.
"……It's you!"
Xiao Li Xingzhi suddenly became nervous, he didn't know why his mother's reaction was so strong.
But the man was coaxing the child in his arms, looked up at Li Xiangling, pretending to be sorry and said: "President Li, I'm here to see you."
"You bitch, get out of here immediately!"
Li Xiangling managed to yell out this sentence.
The person who came came smiled, "No wonder Zhenghua always said that you are irritable and can't talk to you properly."
He shook his head, "Woman, it's better to be gentle. You've been so fierce all day long, why would Zhenghua go back to Li's house to look for you?"
Xiao Li Xingzhi found that his mother's hand was holding the bed sheet tightly, and his whole body was trembling. He hurried forward, "Mom, are you okay?"
As soon as he opened his mouth, he attracted the man's attention.
"Hey, this is the son you gave Zheng Hua a son? He doesn't look like him at all."
"Shut up!"
The man admired her painful appearance with all his might, and said slowly, "Mr. Li, you don't know yet, do you? Today I came here to tell you good news."
"You bitch, you...you get lost!"
While the man was talking, his gaze stayed on Xiao Lixing.For no reason, Xiao Li Xingzhi felt chills all over his body.
In the next second, he heard this beautiful man say: "I also gave birth to a son for Zhenghua. Unlike his elder brother, this baby looks exactly like his father. Most importantly, he Following Zhenghua's surname Xue, the name was all given by Zhenghua himself, called Xue Le."
Li Xiangling looked at the child in his arms with difficulty, pulled the bed sheet violently, and yelled heart-piercingly: "Impossible, you bitch, how could you give birth to a child?"
The man laughed as if hearing a joke, "Why not? What, you think I'm a man, so I can't leave Zhenghua behind?"
He said triumphantly: "Mr. Li, you are too self-righteous. Do you think that with your son named after you, you can make Zhenghua unable to leave the Li family? How naive, now Zhenghua loves us all day long My little baby, he is the descendant of the Xue family."
"Oh, that's right. Let me tell you by the way, Zhenghua said, he won't go back to Li's house in the future."
"Bitch, you bitch, ahem..."
Li Xiangling, who was already like a candle in the wind, shrank into a ball and coughed desperately as if she was about to die.
The instrument next to her screeched.
"Mom, mom—" Xiao Lixingzhi threw himself nervously on the side of the bed.
At this moment, he looked at the man standing there with the child in his arms.
There was engraving hatred in the man's eyes.
And the child in his arms, Xiao Li Xingzhi stared at that wrinkled face, imprinting an indelible mark on his heart...
After a long time, Li Xingzhi found out that the man who came to the hospital that day was none other than his father Xue Zhenghua's third child, named Lai Jiayuan.
Lai Jiayuan gave birth to Xue Zhenghua's son, Li Xingzhi's half-brother, Xue Le.
Li Xiangling, who was not far from the death line, became worse and worse every day after that day.
But in these last moments, Xiao Lixingzhi never saw his mother smiling sincerely at him again.
Even before Li Xiangling died, Xiao Li Xingzhi heard his mother murmur: "Okay, if... if you were given the surname Xue...would...would everything be all right? It's the same..."
Hearing this, Su Ran couldn't help but stepped forward to hug him.
"All right, don't be sad, these things are over..."
"No!"
Li Xing's words became uncontrollably excited, "What she said is not right at all. Even if my grandfather didn't let him marry me, and let me follow his surname Xue. That man will still cheat, and he will still feel sorry for the Li family!"
Su Ran wrapped his arms around him tightly, "Then what happened next?"
"later?"
Li Xingzhi laughed softly, "You will never guess what happened later..."
After Li Xiangling's death, Mr. Li, who was nearly seventy years old, had no choice but to return to Hongyuan to take charge of the entire group.
But at this time, Xue Zhenghua came back without warning.He pretended to come back to mourn Li Xiangling, but his real purpose was to let Li Xingzhi follow him.
The purpose is obvious, he wants the future of the entire Hongyuan Group.
Of course the stubborn Mr. Li refused, he ordered Xue Zhenghua to be kicked out of the Li family mansion.
But after all, he was getting old, and Mr. Li never expected that Xue Zhenghua would secretly collude with some high-level executives in Hongyuan, causing several incidents in a row in order to snatch Hongyuan from him.
In the end, it was Mr. Li who suppressed it with thunderous means. In addition, Xue Zhenghua was completely driven out of Hongyuan.
In the next few years, Mr. Li taught Li Xingzhi how to take care of Hongyuan.
After Li Xingzhi became an adult, Mr. Li also passed away before his eightieth birthday due to physical and mental exhaustion.
"So, I once swore that I would never have children in this life."
Li Xingzhi stared at the photo of Li Xiangling on the tombstone, and said word by word: "I will not let that man's blood continue to spread in this world."
Feeling the hand still around his waist go stiff, Li Xingzhi held back the pain in his heart, and he gently pushed Su Ran away.
"Of course, do you know? Since I was a child, how many times have I had nightmares, the scene where Lai Jiayuan hugged Xue Le and killed my mother, I will never forget it in this life."
It turned out to be like this...
Su Ran stared at him blankly, "I see...so, you said that you don't like men, men who can have children, and even more children, because of that Lai Jiayuan and your half-brother ?"
As soon as the names of those two people were mentioned, Li Xingzhi's entire face turned cold.
"That's right, I hate them. I hate that so-called father even more. If possible, I would rather my mother never met him, let alone give birth to me."
It was that man who made him understand how dirty the blood flowing from his body was.
He looked at Su Ran, and said slowly: "The child I give birth will also have that man's blood in his body. I would rather have an extinct family than let his descendants stay in this world."
This is simply absurd!
Su Ran shook her head, and said in disbelief: "How is this possible? Even without you, there is that Xue Le, he is also your father's..."
Li Xingzhi laughed softly, "He has no chance. Originally, I have been hesitating whether to do it or not."
As if he couldn't bear the look in his eyes, Li Xingzhi looked away.
Obviously, at this moment, even he himself didn't know how to answer this question.
Su Ran couldn't help but said, "All right, do you really don't even want your own son?"
"I……"
Seeing that Li Xingzhi was hesitating, Su Ran quietly reached out and grabbed his hands, eyes full of hope.
"And me, okay. No matter what kind of knots you have ever had, for me, don't be prejudiced against this child, okay?"
child……
The image of the woman screaming heart-piercingly flashed across my mind, and a trace of fear suddenly flashed in Li Xingzhi's eyes.
He took a step back uncontrollably, "Of course, I..."
The unbearable scenes in his mind were like a lingering nightmare, Li Xingzhi looked at his lover, still speechless.
"Do it..."
Su Ran's heart was stabbed by his unconscious retreat, and she felt a dull pain.
He waited for a long time before the man said, "I'm sorry, I have to think about it."
Then, he watched Li Xingzhi turn around and walk out of his sight step by step.
Looking down at her empty hands, Su Ran stood alone at the stairs, looking blankly at the empty platform ahead...
[Su Ran: The video call failed. 】
[Su Ran: The voice call failed. 】
[Su Ran: OK, let's talk, shall we? 】
It has been a whole day, and Su Ran has been looking for Li Xingzhi on WeChat, but the other party has not responded at all.
He clenched the phone tightly, with his thumb hesitating whether to press Li Xingzhi's phone number.
Forget it, it would be better to clarify this kind of thing in person.
Su Ran made up her mind and immediately went back to her room and changed her clothes.
He hurried out and was stopped by He Meili at the door.
"Of course, where are you going? It's almost time for lunch."
"Mom, I have something to do with Xingzhi. You can eat first. If it's too late, I can eat outside."
Su Ran put on her shoes and went out the door.
During the confinement period in the confinement club, Su Ran would stand on the balcony at most to enjoy the scenery.At this moment, I was finally able to truly walk on the street, breathing the fresh and free air outside, and felt refreshed.
He came to Hongyuan Building and went straight to the CEO's office.It's a pity that Jiang Fang told him that Li Xingzhi did not come to the company today, and he was still in Li's mansion.
Li family?
Although he and Li Xingzhi have reached the point of discussing marriage, he has never been to Li's house.
Recalling the address the man had told him, Su Ran made up her mind and decided to visit Li Xingzhi's home in person.
Today, when he travels, he always takes the subway.But when he came to the subway entrance, he saw two or three girls holding a painting in their hands.
"Wow, he draws so beautifully!"
"Yeah, the key is that he is still so handsome. I really want to invite him home to paint for me full-time."
"That's possible. He only charges 20 yuan for a painting. I see you, you can take out 1000 yuan a day and you can cover him..."
Su Ran looked in the direction they came, and found a lonely figure sitting in front of the easel.
Isn't that person...
Su Ran's heart skipped a beat, and she walked over quickly.
The sitting person was laying out the drawing paper, when he saw a pair of feet stopped in front of him, he opened his mouth and asked, "Excuse me, do you want to draw—"
He met Su Ran's eyes.
"What are you doing here? Zim."
Su Ran couldn't believe that Yan Yixing, the second young master of the Yan family, one of the three wealthy families in Nancheng, would set up a painting booth here.
"It's you? Su Ran."
Yan Yixing obviously didn't expect him to appear here, his eyes were full of astonishment.
Su Ran looked at him sitting on the low stool, and there was this iron moon cake box beside his feet. There were some banknotes scattered in it. It was obvious that he earned it by sitting here and painting.
He squatted down, "Zi Xing, why did you come here to paint? Does your family agree?"
No matter how harsh Yan Yichen is to his brother, it won't make Yan Yixing come to the street to sell paintings, right?
Yan Yixing's eyes flickered for a moment, and he turned his head slightly, "I...I just have nothing to do, so I'm here to do something for entertainment."
He faltered and hawed what he said, Su Ran looked at him with a guilty face, and guessed in his heart that it must not be that simple.
After looking at the surrounding environment, this is a lively square in Nancheng, surrounded by shopping malls, and the flow of people is very large.
Yan Yixing was very clever in picking this stippling painting.
Su Ran simply said to him: "It's almost twelve o'clock now, why don't we have a meal together, shall we?"
After hesitating for a few seconds, Yan Yixing, who has no instinct to reject people, still nodded, "Okay."
After Su Ran helped Yan Yixing pack his "money-making" business, the two had dinner at a nearby hot pot restaurant.
As soon as he was seated, Su Ran opened his mouth and asked the waiter to give him a spicy soup, but Yan Yixing stopped him.
"You just finished confinement right now? You can't eat spicy food yet, so eat something lighter, just have a clear soup base."
Su Ran took a special look at him, then nodded and said to the waiter, "Then just have a soup base."
The two were silent for a while.
Su Ran couldn't figure it out, why Yan Yixing's attitude was a little strange when they met this time.
"Yixing, speaking of it, are you busy recently? You haven't come to see me for a long time."
It's a pity that he couldn't go out because of confinement. He also tried to call or send messages to Yan Yixing, but the other party kept replying that something was wrong.
Looking at it now, Yan Yixing must have had something that he didn't know about.
Yan Yixing stared at the menu, his mouth trembled, but finally he just spit out: "It's nothing, just some things to deal with recently."
No, if it was Yan Yixing in normal times, he would definitely not be evasive like this.
Leaning forward slightly, Su Ran showed concern in his eyes, "Yixing, don't worry about anything, you can tell me."
Yan Yixing hesitated for a moment, then shook his head again, "It's fine."
Su Ran stepped forward and covered his hand on the table, "Zim, we are friends. If you really encounter any trouble, please tell me, and I will definitely help you. If not, I can find someone to help you." In short, you should know how influential he is in Nancheng."
Indeed, there was nothing that Li Xingzhi couldn't do in Nancheng.Su Ran is now Li Xingzhi's fiancé, with his help, no matter what trouble Yan Yixing has, it will not be a problem to solve it.
Su Ran's concern was not fake, Yan Yixing's heart was touched.
After hesitating for a long time, he asked slowly, "Su Ran, you said we are friends. Then, will you lie to me? "
Su Ran was stopped by his question.
"Cheat you? Why should I lie to you?"
Yan Yixing just stared at him and didn't speak.
But Su Ran smelled an unusual smell, why did Yan Yixing ask such a question?
He asked himself that nothing could have fooled Yan Yixing, except...
Thinking of this, Su Ran opened her eyes slightly, "Yixing, you..."
Yan Yixing nodded slightly, "I heard it."
He also looked directly at Su Ran, and said word by word: "I heard what you and my brother said in the hospital that day."
"how is this possible?"
Su Ran got excited and accidentally knocked over the tea that the waiter poured into the cup.
The tea dripped down the table and onto the floor, but neither of them cared about it, they just looked at each other directly.
"That day, I was going to leave. But before I left, I wanted to wash my hands first, so I went into the bathroom. At that time, my brother came in to look for you. "
Yan Yixing told the truth about that day, "I didn't want to eavesdrop, but when I was about to open the door, I heard you say that Lin Hong is the real second young master of the Yan family."
It was this sentence that made him choose to stand in the bathroom and quietly listen to them tell all the truth.
Su Ran didn't expect that Yan Yixing was still in the room that day.He couldn't see at that time, so he never thought that Yan Yixing would not leave there.
At this moment, Su Ran figured out Yan Yixing's recent series of abnormal actions.
He asked eagerly: "Zi Xing, you probably didn't explain this to your father, did you?"
Thinking of Yan Yixing's kind and innocent character, maybe he would really confess his and Lin Hong's identities to Yan Yuanshan.
Yan Yixing shook his head, "I really wanted to go and explain this to my dad, but he's not here now."
If Yan Yuanshan hadn't gone abroad, maybe everything would be revealed by now.
Su Ran grabbed his hand, and her tone was a little anxious, "Yi Xing, don't be impulsive. This matter is not as simple as you think."
What he was afraid of was that if someone like Lin Hong were to change his identity, he might try to kill Yan Yixing according to the plot in the original book.
"How complicated is that?"
Yan Yixing smiled sadly, "I know, you all have your own goals, my brother thinks that no one will come to compete with him for success. What about you?"
"I?"
Su Ran was stunned.
"Don't you have your purpose?"
Yan Yixing broke away from his hand, and said with a hurt face: "Su Ran, you know these things but you don't tell me, and you have to make an appointment with my brother so that no one can tell. What you are doing is to get revenge on Lin Hong?"
When he heard that Su Ran and Yan Yichen made an "agreement" in the hospital that day, God knows how much his heart ached.
One is his "big brother" who has been living under the same roof since he was a child, and the other is Su Ran, whom he regards as a lifelong friend.The two of them just carried him behind their backs, quietly concealing the truth of his life experience.
Su Ran was just stunned for a few seconds, and quickly explained: "That's not the case, Zixing, you misunderstood."
No matter how much he hated Lin Hong, he wouldn't just think about taking revenge on him.But Yan Yixing didn't believe it, "Su Ran, tell me, if you didn't want to take revenge on Lin Hong, why did you choose to hide me when you knew the truth about my life?"
This question stumped Su Ran.He couldn't tell the other party that he was transmigrated into the book, so he knew all the plots in advance.And these people are just characters in the book.
No, if you say that, Yan Yixing will definitely think that he is sick.
Having made up his mind, Su Ran turned quickly in his mind, and finally he came up with a set of words.
"Yi Xing, listen to me. I also inadvertently discovered the clues from Lin Hong's file and some information he leaked before. After I knew about the fact that you switched identities with him, I also thought about it. It's been a long time. How can I not hurt you? This is my biggest concern."
Su Ran said sincerely, Yan Yixing couldn't help but keep looking at him. "Finally, I figured it out. Zixing is such a kind person, if you know your life experience, you will be very sad. And Lin Hong, yes, I have a problem with him, but that's it, I know him better Look at my ex-fiancé Chen Chen, Lin Hong can dump him once he turns his back on him. If he finds out, he is actually the second young master of the Yan family..."
Su Ran paused for a moment, then continued: "With his narrow-minded way of doing things, I'm afraid he will be against you."
"Bad for me?"
Yan Yixing obviously didn't expect Su Ran to think of this, "You mean, he will take revenge on me then?"
"Yes." Su Ran nodded quickly, "It's not impossible. Think about it, in his opinion, you have occupied his status as a wealthy young master and lived in the Yan family for so many years. Do you think he can hate you? ?"
This Yan Yixing really didn't think about it, "But he and I are both victims of this matter!"
If he could choose, he would never want to live in the Yan family for all these years.
Su Ran shook her head, "Yixing, you are so naive. In his opinion, it is because of your existence that he has lived in a fishing village for more than 20 years. This kind of hatred, besides venting to you, he can find who?"
For a while, Yan Yixing was also speechless.
In the end, Su Ran said softly, "Yixing, everything I do is for your own good."
Yan Yixing stared at him blankly for several minutes, then suddenly, he lowered his head, his words were full of self-blame.
"I believe in you, Su Ran. I didn't think so much myself. I always thought that you wanted to take revenge on Lin Hong..."
What made him so sad was that he thought that in this matter, everyone just wanted to use him, and no one really cared about him.
Seeing Yan Yixing like this, Su Ran felt sad too.
"It doesn't matter, anyone who encounters a situation like yours will definitely panic."
Yes, after living for more than 20 years, I was told that I was not born to my parents for no reason, but was secretly changed.Who can bear this matter?
Su Ran patted his hand lightly, "Yixing, I just hope you don't misunderstand. From the beginning to the end, I never thought of lying to you, let alone hurting you."
Yan Yixing held his hand instead, "Su Ran, I believe in you."
He calmed down, and then said firmly: "However, I decided to wait for my dad to come back, and I will explain this matter to him clearly."
"you……"
Yan Yixing's mouth curled into a confident smile, "Don't worry, I will protect myself. In fact, if I keep concealing it like this, no matter whether it is to Lin Hong, to me, or to the Yan family and the Lin family, no one will be concerned. fair."
"Lin Hong and I were both victims of what happened back then. However, my dad, as well as the Lin family's parents, have the right to know who their real son is."
There is no doubt about this.
Su Ran also knows that the best way is to tell the truth. As for the future of the two of them, everything is unknown.
only……
Su Ran worried: "Yi Xing, I know that you have not lived happily in the Yan family these years. No one can tell who is the favored darling of the heavens, you or Lin Hong. But the only thing I am worried about is, That is, after he regains his identity, he will hurt you."
A good person like Yan Yixing should live a smooth life instead of suffering such a rough fate.
Yan Yixing comforted him instead, "Su Ran, don't think too much. I'm a grown man, so I can protect myself naturally. Also, after you've said that, can I be careless about Lin Hong?"
Since Yan Yixing said so confidently, Su Ran had no choice but to believe him.
"Okay, but you have to be careful about everything."
"Ah."
Yan Yixing finally showed his first sincere smile today.
At this time, the waiter brought up the bottom of the pot and all the meat dishes.The two of them talked for so long, and when they saw the food, they realized that they were already hungry.
After eating more than half of it, Su Ran suddenly remembered something, so she said it by the way.
"By the way, are you in contact with that Liu Xia now? He came to my house a while ago and asked about you."
Originally, it was just Su Ran's casual question, but Yan Yixing's hand holding the ball stopped suddenly, and the hot ball just fell back to the bottom of the pot, splashing a little soup.
"Sorry, are you okay?"
Yan Yixing quickly took out a tissue and handed it to Su Ran.
"I'm fine,"
Su Ran wiped the splashed area on the table, and couldn't help but become curious, "Zi Xing, are you really with him..."
A long time ago, Su Ran felt that Liu Xia seemed to be around Yan Yixing all the time.When he asked that question a while ago, Su Ran sometimes thought about it, and wondered if the relationship between these two people might not be that simple.
Yan Yixing moved his eyes slightly, and just said softly: "No more, we have no contact now."
Su Ran looked at him as if he didn't seem to be lying, and didn't think too much about it, "It's fine if we don't contact him, then Liu Xia doesn't think he's a serious person."
He didn't realize that Yan Yixing didn't speak in silence, but just ate the dishes by himself, taking the gossip he heard from others as table jokes.
"You don't know, last time I heard a certain boss say that Liu Xia has to change several girlfriends a year, such as beauty pageant champions, movie stars, anyway, as long as she is a beautiful woman, she can't escape. His 'clutch'..."
"Oh……"
Yan Yixing stared at his empty bowl, concealing the loneliness in his heart...
It was a white hospital bed, on which lay a haggard woman.
Li Xingzhi stood there, looking at him coldly.
At this time, a very charming man came over, and Li Xingzhi saw a newborn child in his arms.
He couldn't see the child's face clearly, but he heard the man's sharp voice, "Look, this is my son. His surname is Xue, Xue of Xue Zhenghua."
The body of the woman on the bed shook violently. She stared at the man resentfully, but was speechless.
At this time, the man laughed again, "What about you? Look at what you gave birth to, and his surname is not Xue at all. You want to rob me, why, what qualifications do you have to rob me?"
The woman on the bed trembled even more. She struggled desperately, trying to get up from the bed, but there was nothing she could do.
All he could do was watch the man holding the child, laughing mockingly one after another.
At this moment, the man looked away from the woman on the bed and looked directly at Li Xingzhi.
Inexplicably, a trace of fear emerged in Li Xingzhi's heart.
The man said, "Look, you don't look like your father at all. The one in my arms is Xue Zhenghua's real son."
Li Xingzhi's eyes moved down, and at this moment, he finally saw the face of the child in the man's arms clearly.
There were no facial features on that face, only a bloody mouth, and he was about to pounce on him with his mouth open——
"do not want!"
Li Xingzhi sat up abruptly.
The familiar decoration in the room made him wake up in an instant. He was panting. He reached out and touched his forehead, which was covered in sweat.
The wall clock on the wall was ticking, and when Li Xingzhi looked up, the hour hand was pointing to "2".
A little confused whether it was day or night, he lifted the quilt and got out of bed, and as soon as he opened the curtains, the strong sunlight made him unable to open his eyes.
It turned out that he just took a nap.
The scorching sun of early summer shone on his body, but his heart was cold.
It's been a long time since I had this dream...
Li Xingzhi calmed down, walked to the bedside table and picked up his cell phone, only to find that there were several missed calls.
All the callers were Su Ran.
He turned off the phone screen and chose to put the phone back on the bedside table.
After taking a shower, as soon as he opened the door, the butler was already waiting for him at the door.
"Master, you have guests."
Are there any guests at this time?
Li Xingzhi frowned, he rarely had visitors in his house, except Liu Xia.But now it was working time, he thought Liu Xia would never be free to come over.
He went downstairs, only to see a slender figure.
"Do it!"
It's Su Ran.
Li Xingzhi held onto the handrail, but hesitated to walk down.
Su Ran stood up, and the two of them looked at each other across most of the stairs.
In the end, Li Xingzhi walked down.
"Sorry, I went to your company to look for you. Jiang Fang said that you were still at home when you were not at work. I had to come here to look for you."
Li Xingzhi sounded a little sad, but Su Ran's words were a little cautious.In fact, he doesn't have to be like this, there are already a lot of wedding things in this room.
Before yesterday, Li Xingzhi even told other servants in the family that Su Ran would be another male master of the Li family mansion in the future.
Seeing that Li Xingzhi didn't speak, Su Ran thought it was because he was minding that he came to look for him without authorization, and explained: "After I rang the doorbell, it was...it was Zhou Shunchang who opened the door, he recognized me, so he let me in. "
To be honest, Su Ran was also very embarrassed when he saw Zhou Shunchang just now.Recalling a few months ago, Li Xingzhi used Zhou Shunchang as a cover, and kept using the identity of "Yuan Dian" to date himself online.
"It's okay, sit down and let's talk slowly."
After hiding for a whole day, what should come still has to be faced.
Li Xingzhi was already mentally prepared, and Su Ran didn't want to waste any more time turning left and right, so he went straight in: "Xingzhi, should you give me an explanation now?"
"I……"
Li Xingzhi looked at him, opened his mouth several times to speak, but finally couldn't speak.
Just when Su Ran waited again and again, and his patience was about to run out, Li Xingzhi stood up suddenly, "Let me take you to a place."
The place where Li Xingzhi said is not far away, it is in the Nancheng Cemetery, which is less than an hour's drive away.
He followed Li Xingzhi slowly, and finally came to a tree.
A tombstone stood there quietly.
Su Ran took a closer look and found that the owner of the tomb was Li Xiangling.And the photo inlaid on the tombstone shows a middle-aged woman whose face is [-]% to [-]% similar to Li Xingzhi.
"This is……"
Su Ran looked at Li Xingzhi, who nodded.
"She is my mother."
Li Xingzhi's mother?
Su Ran noticed a special detail, "Your mother has the same surname as you?"
Li Xingzhi's eyes suddenly became sad, "Yes, I follow my mother's surname."
Su Ran was a little surprised. He didn't expect that Li Xingzhi took his mother's surname.
Seeing that Su Ran didn't speak any more, Li Xingzhi couldn't help holding his hand, and said in a low voice: "Of course, I know you must have many questions in your heart from yesterday to now. Now, I'll tell you everything... "
In the afternoon of early summer, although it is a little hot, there is a breeze.The cicadas in the tree screamed, and Li Xingzhi began to tell a story about the past belonging to the Li family...
The Li family has a history of more than 100 years in Nancheng.As early as the 20s, the ancestors of the Li family started their business and became a wealthy household in Nancheng.
It is a pity that the descendants of the Li family have withered for generations, and there are even cases where the descendants voluntarily left the family and went overseas to study abroad.
In the generation of great-grandfather beyond Li Xing, there are no sons who can inherit the family business.
In order to have successors, Li Xingzhi's great-grandfather established a rule: All descendants surnamed Li will receive a huge sum of money when they reach the age of three.
This rule sounds strange, but it can ensure that the blood of the Li family will be passed on forever.Because even if a daughter is born, a child born to a daughter with a foreign surname will still change back to the surname "Li" for the sake of profit.
Generation after generation, until the generation of his grandfather other than Li Xing, he only gave birth to a daughter.
The huge Hongyuan was handed over to Li Xingzhi's mother Li Xiangling.
Fortunately, although she is a daughter, Li Xiangling has been gifted since she was a child.Not only is she no worse than men in everything she does in sports, but even after graduating from university she joined Hongyuan, her performance won the praise of Li Xingzhi's grandfather.
Soon, Li Xiangling reached the age where she wanted to start a family.
A lot of rich men from Nancheng came to propose marriage, but Li Xiangling didn't like all of them, but finally chose the manager of a small department in Hongyuan.
This man was Li Xingzhi's father, Xue Zhenghua.
Xue Zhenghua is hardworking and smart, and he is also tall and handsome.The only thing that Li Xingzhi's grandfather was dissatisfied with was that Xue Zhenghua's family was poor, and that he and Li Xiangling were not in the right family.
But Li Xiangling couldn't stop her from insisting on it. In the end, the two of them got married smoothly, and Xue Zhenghua officially joined Li's family.
Hearing this, Su Ran was secretly speechless. Isn't this the plot of "Su Ran" and Chen Chen in the original book?
Sure enough, the life after marriage was considered happy at the beginning.A year later, their son was born.
Because it is a marriage, the child must have the surname of Li Xiangling, so her father named his grandson: Li Xingzhi.
After the birth of her son, Li Xiangling not only decided not to have another child, but also did not choose to take care of her husband and raise her children at home, but continued to be a grand sovereign.
This made Xue Zhenghua dissatisfied.
He is from the Li family, that's right.Although Li Xingzhi couldn't follow his own surname Xue, he had to follow his wife's surname Li.But Xue Zhenghua always thought that after having his first child, Li Xiangling might have a few more children, and one of them could have his surname.Moreover, the wife can start to retreat to the second line, and Hongyuan will be hosted by him.
It's a pity that Li Xingzhi's grandfather and Li Xiangling are both firmly in control of Hongyuan's power.
At this time, some rumors from the outside world also began to break into Li Xiangling's ears.
Someone said that he saw Xue Zhenghua fooling around with women late at night in a nightclub.
Some people said that Xue Zhenghua often went to a certain widow's residence on weekends.
Others said that Xue Zhenghua bought a house somewhere and raised a lover...
All of this started to make the couple who had a grudge start to quarrel.
From the time Li Xingzhi could remember, what he saw most often was his mother sternly scolding his father, and then the two of them fought in the room.
"The most serious one was when my mother tried to hit him with an ashtray, but she accidentally hit me on the head."
Li Xingzhi spoke lightly, but Su Ran's whole heart ached.
Li Xingzhi clenched his hand, looked directly at Li Xiangling's tombstone, and continued.
This seemingly inseparable marriage has never disintegrated.
I don't know whether Xue Zhenghua was reluctant to part with the glory and wealth of the Li family, or Li Xiangling couldn't swallow this breath all the time.
After Li Xing went to elementary school, he couldn't see his father all day long.
Xue Zhenghua didn't go home directly.
It was rumored that he had hired a male celebrity outside, and now he was on fire.
And not long after, Li Xiangling was diagnosed with brain cancer.
For the Li family, this was like a bolt from the blue.
Li Xingzhi remembers the last moments of Li Xiangling's life.He often saw his mother lying on that white hospital bed, relying on various instruments to maintain a weak life.
And he will always clearly remember that day, he got [-] points in two exams, and was taking the test papers to the hospital to show to Li Xiangling, to make her happy.
At this time, a charming man came in with a child in his arms.
Li Xingzhi didn't know that man.
However, Li Xiangling, who was lying on the bed with half-closed eyes, suddenly became excited.
"……It's you!"
Xiao Li Xingzhi suddenly became nervous, he didn't know why his mother's reaction was so strong.
But the man was coaxing the child in his arms, looked up at Li Xiangling, pretending to be sorry and said: "President Li, I'm here to see you."
"You bitch, get out of here immediately!"
Li Xiangling managed to yell out this sentence.
The person who came came smiled, "No wonder Zhenghua always said that you are irritable and can't talk to you properly."
He shook his head, "Woman, it's better to be gentle. You've been so fierce all day long, why would Zhenghua go back to Li's house to look for you?"
Xiao Li Xingzhi found that his mother's hand was holding the bed sheet tightly, and his whole body was trembling. He hurried forward, "Mom, are you okay?"
As soon as he opened his mouth, he attracted the man's attention.
"Hey, this is the son you gave Zheng Hua a son? He doesn't look like him at all."
"Shut up!"
The man admired her painful appearance with all his might, and said slowly, "Mr. Li, you don't know yet, do you? Today I came here to tell you good news."
"You bitch, you...you get lost!"
While the man was talking, his gaze stayed on Xiao Lixing.For no reason, Xiao Li Xingzhi felt chills all over his body.
In the next second, he heard this beautiful man say: "I also gave birth to a son for Zhenghua. Unlike his elder brother, this baby looks exactly like his father. Most importantly, he Following Zhenghua's surname Xue, the name was all given by Zhenghua himself, called Xue Le."
Li Xiangling looked at the child in his arms with difficulty, pulled the bed sheet violently, and yelled heart-piercingly: "Impossible, you bitch, how could you give birth to a child?"
The man laughed as if hearing a joke, "Why not? What, you think I'm a man, so I can't leave Zhenghua behind?"
He said triumphantly: "Mr. Li, you are too self-righteous. Do you think that with your son named after you, you can make Zhenghua unable to leave the Li family? How naive, now Zhenghua loves us all day long My little baby, he is the descendant of the Xue family."
"Oh, that's right. Let me tell you by the way, Zhenghua said, he won't go back to Li's house in the future."
"Bitch, you bitch, ahem..."
Li Xiangling, who was already like a candle in the wind, shrank into a ball and coughed desperately as if she was about to die.
The instrument next to her screeched.
"Mom, mom—" Xiao Lixingzhi threw himself nervously on the side of the bed.
At this moment, he looked at the man standing there with the child in his arms.
There was engraving hatred in the man's eyes.
And the child in his arms, Xiao Li Xingzhi stared at that wrinkled face, imprinting an indelible mark on his heart...
After a long time, Li Xingzhi found out that the man who came to the hospital that day was none other than his father Xue Zhenghua's third child, named Lai Jiayuan.
Lai Jiayuan gave birth to Xue Zhenghua's son, Li Xingzhi's half-brother, Xue Le.
Li Xiangling, who was not far from the death line, became worse and worse every day after that day.
But in these last moments, Xiao Lixingzhi never saw his mother smiling sincerely at him again.
Even before Li Xiangling died, Xiao Li Xingzhi heard his mother murmur: "Okay, if... if you were given the surname Xue...would...would everything be all right? It's the same..."
Hearing this, Su Ran couldn't help but stepped forward to hug him.
"All right, don't be sad, these things are over..."
"No!"
Li Xing's words became uncontrollably excited, "What she said is not right at all. Even if my grandfather didn't let him marry me, and let me follow his surname Xue. That man will still cheat, and he will still feel sorry for the Li family!"
Su Ran wrapped his arms around him tightly, "Then what happened next?"
"later?"
Li Xingzhi laughed softly, "You will never guess what happened later..."
After Li Xiangling's death, Mr. Li, who was nearly seventy years old, had no choice but to return to Hongyuan to take charge of the entire group.
But at this time, Xue Zhenghua came back without warning.He pretended to come back to mourn Li Xiangling, but his real purpose was to let Li Xingzhi follow him.
The purpose is obvious, he wants the future of the entire Hongyuan Group.
Of course the stubborn Mr. Li refused, he ordered Xue Zhenghua to be kicked out of the Li family mansion.
But after all, he was getting old, and Mr. Li never expected that Xue Zhenghua would secretly collude with some high-level executives in Hongyuan, causing several incidents in a row in order to snatch Hongyuan from him.
In the end, it was Mr. Li who suppressed it with thunderous means. In addition, Xue Zhenghua was completely driven out of Hongyuan.
In the next few years, Mr. Li taught Li Xingzhi how to take care of Hongyuan.
After Li Xingzhi became an adult, Mr. Li also passed away before his eightieth birthday due to physical and mental exhaustion.
"So, I once swore that I would never have children in this life."
Li Xingzhi stared at the photo of Li Xiangling on the tombstone, and said word by word: "I will not let that man's blood continue to spread in this world."
Feeling the hand still around his waist go stiff, Li Xingzhi held back the pain in his heart, and he gently pushed Su Ran away.
"Of course, do you know? Since I was a child, how many times have I had nightmares, the scene where Lai Jiayuan hugged Xue Le and killed my mother, I will never forget it in this life."
It turned out to be like this...
Su Ran stared at him blankly, "I see...so, you said that you don't like men, men who can have children, and even more children, because of that Lai Jiayuan and your half-brother ?"
As soon as the names of those two people were mentioned, Li Xingzhi's entire face turned cold.
"That's right, I hate them. I hate that so-called father even more. If possible, I would rather my mother never met him, let alone give birth to me."
It was that man who made him understand how dirty the blood flowing from his body was.
He looked at Su Ran, and said slowly: "The child I give birth will also have that man's blood in his body. I would rather have an extinct family than let his descendants stay in this world."
This is simply absurd!
Su Ran shook her head, and said in disbelief: "How is this possible? Even without you, there is that Xue Le, he is also your father's..."
Li Xingzhi laughed softly, "He has no chance. Originally, I have been hesitating whether to do it or not."
