He is not betraying Nanxi, he is betraying the memories related to Nanxi!
He thinks he will never fall in love with another girl. If Nanxi is not his in this lifetime, he has accepted it, so is it possible to hope for a afterlife?
In the next life, if he meets Nanxi again, he will hold her hand tightly with all his strength, even if it hurts terribly, he will never let go!
When he received a call from Li Mufang again, he was just about to go out for dinner with Bai Yuchuan and Yan Chenqing. Seeing the number, he hesitated, not wanting to answer!
But towards his elder sister Li Mufang, he always felt some guilt, so he answered!
When he heard his sister mentioned Nanxi, his heart shook a bit. So, he didnât go to dinner, instead he took a taxi straight home!
âCall us if there is anything!â Bai Yuchuan spoke to him before he left.
â¦
Qi Qun arrived home a few minutes earlier than Li Weihuan. When Li Weihuan got home, Qi Qun was the only one sitting in the living room. He walked over and casually sat down!
Qi Qun handed over her cell phone. Li Weihuan glimpsed a photo of a girl, frowning, he got up and started to leaveâ¦
âStayâ¦â Qi Qun stopped him. âIf you leave, I will call grandfather immediately to get his judgment. What kind of man would a uncle be if he snatched his nephewâs girlfriendâ¦â
Li Weihuan paused, looking at Qi Qun incredulously. Qi Qun was initially unsure, but now firmly concluded after looking at her sonâs reaction!
As expected! She was wondering how Gu Nanxi, that girl, could let go of her son so easily. As it turns, sheâs aiming for someone higher!
She is with Lu Yinchu, thatâs why she dumped her son?!
Huh, Qi Qun just wanted to sneer at this moment. Xia Zhen, youâre amazing. Back then, you stole my husband, now you want your son to steal my sonâs girlfriendâ¦..
So all these years of good will are fakes. Itâs true, you always covet what I have, even my son is not sparedâ¦
Qi Qun calmed her breath, biting her lips, âWeihuan, Iâve told you long ago that Gu Nanxi is not a good choice. See, now that sheâs seen your uncle who has better conditions, she immediately dumped you. Youâre still coveting such a girl, are you stupidâ¦â
âYes, I am stupid. Wasnât it you who raised this fool!â
Li Weihuan was angry already. This time he was really provoked, especially when he heard Qi Qun say ânot a good choiceâ!
He said, âMom, I know I have disappointed you this lifetime due to my incompetence. Youâre not comfortable with that. But this is the person I am. Itâs impossible for me to be as successful as uncle. I love Nanxi, but I canât make Nanxi happy. So I let go. Naturally, there are people who can give her happiness! Whether itâs another man or uncle, it doesnât matter to me. Nanxiâs choices after breaking up are her own freedom. I, and you, have no right to say!â
âNo right to say? Huh!â Qi Qun sneered. âThen what? Sit back and watch? Just let your uncle, let Lu family bully you?â
âWhoâs bullying me? Mom, can you make sense? Does the Lu family owe you? Does my aunt owe you? Does my uncle owe you? No! On the opposite, we owe the Lu family a lot! Didnât you learn your lesson from my Auntâs incident? How old was my Aunt when she died? Nineteen. A nineteen-year-old life just went away like that. Donât you feel any guilt in your heart? Mom, do you have a heart at all?â
Qi Qunâs body shivered, she bit her teeth and looked at Li Weihuan. With trembling hands she said âIâll say it again, Iâm not responsible for the incident. It was all just a coincidence!â
âA coincidence, maybe. But all that doesnât matter. Whatâs important is that my aunt is gone. Sheâs gone from this world forever. And it was in my uncleâs arms that she breathed her last! My uncle has been tolerating and covering it up for many years to ease grandfatherâs worries and to maintain the harmony between the Lu and Li families. But you should understand the resentment he feels towards you more than I do!â
Qi Qunâs heart trembled, listened as Li Weihuan continued, âMom, my uncle has dominated the business world for many years, getting to where he is today is not an easy task. If you provoke him again, he may not keep bearing with you! My auntâs departure is an everlasting pain for him. And now, the people of the Lu family, including Nanxi, are equally important to him. My uncle knows the pain of losing, so this time, he will do everything he can to protect them, and whoever harms them, will be the one to dieâ¦â
â¦
The balcony.
Lu Yinchu is holding his phone. Seeing the display showing âMissed Callâ, he knows that Nanxi didnât pick up, she has reservations, he understands.
He dialed back. After two rings, the call was finally picked up ââ
âHello?â
âItâs me. I called, is there something?â
âYes!â On the other end of the phone, Li Weihuan slightly lowered his voice and said, âItâs like this, uncle, I donât know how things turned out like this. My mom.⦠she seems to know about you and Nanxi!â
Lu Yinchuâs eyes flickered when he heard Li Weihuan continue, âUncle, Iâve thought about it. My mom is somewhat apprehensive about you. For the time being, she doesnât dare to cause too much chaos. I calmed her down temporarily with other things. But I know my momâs character best. Sheâs really the type who is not afraid to make trouble. Even if sheâs afraid of you, she knows that youâre worried about grandfather. So, donât push too hard, grandfatherâs health is the most importantâ¦â
Lu Yinchu responded, indicating his agreement!
Li Weihuan paused, then said, âUncle, I want to ask you, you can guarantee that you will protect Nanxi, right? You wonât let her get hurt, right? You can, right? Tell me, you definitely can, right?â
Lu Yinchu narrowed his phoenix eyes, looking indifferently at the neon lights not far away. After a long while, he finally spoke, two words, âI can!â
