Chapter 238: Just Us Two

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Li Yu spoke with a twinkle in his eyes, “It’s a deal, then! No last-minute changes, and no third wheels. Just us two!”

“Okay, 1’11 go along with it,” giggled Jiang Ling’er.

Jiang Ling’er smiled, finding his sudden childlike enthusiasm quite amusing.

After more than twenty minutes, they arrived at the Jiang family’s house.

“We’re back!” announced Jiang Ling’er. “Want to come in for dinner before heading home?”

Li Yu nodded eagerly and hopped out of the car with Jiang Ling’er.

Old Master Jiang was surprised to see Li Yu and Jiang Ling’er return together.

“Grandpa, I’m back!” chirped Jiang Ling’er.

“All, Li Yu is here too,” acknowledged Old Master Jiang.

“Uncle Jiang, I apologize for the intrusion again,” Li Yu said politely, slipping into the shoes Jiang Ling’er had provided.

Old Master Jiang raised an intrigued eyebrow. Li Yu still called him uncle, so it seemed that they weren’t an item yet. Nevertheless, Li Yu was permitted entry, signifying progress.

“Alright, let’s eat,” declared Old Master Jiang. “Li Yu, join us for dinner.”

“Thank you, Uncle Jiang.” Li Yu beamed.

Appearing calm on the outside, Li Yu couldn’t contain his inner delight. It was evident that Old Master Jiang approved. Now, all that remained was Jiang Ling’er’s consent.

When Li Yu left the Jiang family and returned to the Li family residence, it was almost 10 pm. Old Master Li was still in the living room.

Seeing his youngest son return, the old man asked, “Back so late. You visited the Jiang family again?”

Li Yu didn’t beat around the bush, “That’s right. Accompanied Ling’er to the set, had dinner, and played chess with Uncle Jiang.”

Old Master Li, disgruntled, set aside his newspaper, “You’ve been home a while, yet you’ve yet to play a proper game of chess with me. Instead, you’re so eager elsewhere. Are you truly my son?”

“You don’t have a granddaughter to captivate my heart, so why should 1 spend time with you?” Li Yu raised an eyebrow.

Old Master Li, slightly exasperated, sighed.

“Ling’er is indeed remarkable,” fretted Old Master Li. “But she was Li Yan’s fiancee. You’re like an uncle to her, isn’t that awkward?”

Seated beside the old man, Li Yu responded, “Li Yan failed to appreciate her, so 1 stepped in. Why should 1 be embarrassed? Li Yan should be the one who should be embarrassed. He is the one transitioning from fiance to junior.”

A trace of helplessness flashed across Old Master Li’s eyes. He stammered, “How about 1 introduce you to someone? Two years younger than you. She’s the youngest daughter of the Wu family.”

Li Yu turned serious, “Dad, that’s enough. 1 only want Ling’er. I must marry Ling’er. Whether others feel awkward or not has nothing to do with me.”

Old Master Li waved his hand in resignation, “Alright, as long as you don’t end up regretting it. By the way, Li Yan’s company seems to be in trouble. Any idea what’s going on?”

“That’s Li Yan’s own company,” Li Yu brushed it off. “It’s unrelated to the Li family. I won’t use the family’s money to fill the gap left by Li Yan’s mistakes.” “So heartless?” Old Master Li frowned.

Li Yu smiled and said, “That grandson of yours is very ambitious. It’s better for you to be on guard. All these years, the family has secretly extended its generosity, but is Li Yan grateful? Why didn’t he put someone like Bai Xue in her place?”

Old Master Li suddenly felt a twinge of discomfort. His cherished grandson seemed entranced by Bai Xue.

Li Yu said lightly, “Let me tell you. If Li Yan rises, you won’t survive. I’m not trying to scare you. Look at how rapidly he’s grown in the past two years. Every investment is a success, and every penny is strategically spent. If you continue to feign non-involvement and secretly aid him, he’ll devour the Li family sooner or later.”

“You have no interest in the Li family’s businesses, and your brother doesn’t like doing business.” Old Master Li sighed and said, “Won’t it eventually be his?”

Li Yu eyed his father. With advancing age, his heart was no longer as ruthless as in his youth.

Li Yu said, “Dad, it seems like you want to personally hand over the Li family to him, but he’s not willing to wait for many years. Plus, your refusal to let him marry that Bai Xue is a threat to him. Li Yan is such a proud person; how could he allow someone to threaten him? You can see from his actions that he’s not a good person. Once he decides on something, without special circumstances, he won’t change his plan. Now, the Li family has a subsidiary under his name, and his personal company is continuously growing. It can be said that Li Yan has already taken the first step on the path to devouring the Li family. The only setback at the moment is Bai Xue. Of course, Li Yan hasn’t realized this yet..”
