Chapter 198 My Mother Was a Heartthrob in the 1980s
"Qingqing, weren't you going on a trip abroad recently? Why did you suddenly contact me?"
Li Rui looked at Xiao Qingqing with curiosity.
[That's strange. Logically, Qingqing should already be abroad by now.]
"Rui Rui, I've been a little delayed by something lately, but I'm contacting you today because I have something very important to say."
Xiao Qingqing said mysteriously.
"What is it? Does it concern me?"
Li Rui frowned and thought for a moment, wondering if she had done anything wrong recently.
"It's somewhat related to you, after all, if the head of the Li family were your eldest brother, it would probably be much better for you than if your second brother were in charge."
Xiao Qingqing smiled, but she confused Li Rui.
"Sister Qingqing, don't you know? My older brother has a problem. Wasn't that why you gave up on him in the first place? My dad is very traditional. My older brother doesn't have any children, so my dad won't hand over the Li family to him."
After finishing her sentence, Li Rui thought of a conversation she had overheard recently, hesitated for a moment, and then spoke again.
"Sister Qingqing, I'm not happy with you anymore. My parents have decided to hand over the most important company of the Li family to my second brother, Li Cheng, next week."
"Really? That's perfect, there's still time."
After Xiao Qingqing finished speaking, she took out a photo from her bag.
"Rui Rui, take a look at this first."
"what?"
Li Rui took the photo with a puzzled look and began to look at it.
"Isn't this a picture of my older brother when he was young? What's so interesting about it?"
Li Rui said irritably.
"Rui Rui, take a closer look."
"What's so interesting about this? It's just... wait, the watermark on this photo says 1986? Was it taken last year? Who is he? Does my mother have an illegitimate child?"
Li Rui's expression was strange. It was because the boy in the photo not only looked like her older brother, but he also looked very similar to her mother.
Because of Li Yang's issues, Li Rui didn't think about him at all.
“Rui Rui, what are you thinking? He’s your brother’s son. Your brother didn’t have problems from the beginning. He was a good person when he was a sent-down youth in the countryside. This child was born during that time.”
After Xiao Qingqing finished speaking, she paused for a moment. After all, if it weren't for her, Li Yang would probably have taken responsibility for Si Yan because of this. Fortunately, she had persuaded Si Yan to run away.
However, I need to come up with a reason to extricate myself from this situation.
"I only found out about this by chance. You know, I was also a sent-down youth there. The news was told to me by a friend I met there, and she also sent me the photos."
"This is really good news. My mom has been worried about this. She has a lot of complaints about my second sister-in-law."
Li Rui had a headache just thinking about the argument the two of them had a few days ago. After all, if her mother was unhappy, her own life wouldn't be easy either.
"But Rui Rui, it's not appropriate for me to tell you this. You know that your brother and I had a bit of a falling out back then, and your aunt also had some complaints about me. But I didn't want to see Brother Li Yang looking so down, so I told you first."
Thinking of Li Yang's suspicious nature, Xiao Qingqing added.
“The person in the photo is from Haishi. Didn’t you just come back from Haishi a few days ago? Isn’t this a perfect reason?”
After Xiao Qingqing finished speaking, she glanced at Li Rui unintentionally. Seeing that Li Rui's eyes lit up, she felt relieved.
It's done!
Upon hearing this big news, Li Rui said goodbye to Xiao Qingqing and rushed back to the old house immediately.
If we were to ask who in the Li family was happiest that Li Yang had an heir, it would definitely be Li's mother.
On the way back, Li Rui let out a soft hum.
Now let's see how my second sister-in-law can act so arrogantly in front of me. She even dared to threaten to suspend my credit card.
Now that she has this bargaining chip, she'll probably be the one crying.
Li Rui became happier and happier as she thought about it.
Meanwhile, in Shanghai, Si Yan looked at Director Zhang, who looked rather awkward, with a puzzled expression.
"Who are you looking for?"
