Li Feng and his wife exchanged bewildered glances.
Li Feng hastily said, “Old master, that’s not how it happened. Meng Yu and Li Zhe encountered the riot together, and both tragically lost their lives. How can you say that Li Zhe killed Meng Yu?”
Guan Yi’s eyes flared with anger as he retorted, “If it weren’t for Li Zhe luring
Meng Yu, he wouldn’t have gone to America, and he wouldn’t have died.”
Li Feng, surprised by the old master’s logic, helplessly responded, “Old master, how can you see it this way? Meng Yu and Ah Zhe genuinely loved each other. We are all deeply saddened by this situation, but blaming it entirely on Ah Zhe is unjust.”
The words fell on deaf ears as Guan Yi was adamant that Li Zhe was responsible for Meng Yu’s death. He even grabbed something nearby and threw it at Li Feng and his wife to chase them out.
Guan Yan and his wife, who had just returned to the hospital room, intercepted Guan Yi and urged Li Feng and his wife to leave.
With a troubled expression, Li Feng turned to Guan Yan and said, “Guan Yan, we came here today hoping that the Guan family could help us. Li Industries is facing difficulties, and we wonder if you could assist us.”
Guan Yi, still furious, shouted, “No way! The murderer who killed Meng Yu!’
Exasperated, Li Feng said, “Guan Yan, we grew up together, and our families have deep ties. Must Old Master abandon the friendship between our families for a godson who is not even related by blood? Moreover, it was the Guan family that helped establish and support the Li family. Are you really going to give up on us?”
Infuriated by the mention of a non-blood-related godson, Guan Yi went so far as to hurl his IV bag at them, yelling, “The Li family is nothing to me! Get out! ”
With that, he sternly warned Guan Yan, “Don’t help the Li family! Got it?”
Guan Yan could only nod in resignation to appease Guan Yi’s agitated emotions.
Su Han intervened, saying, “We’ll discuss this matter later. It’s not appropriate to talk about business right now. You should leave.”
Li Feng, glancing at Guan Yi’s resentful gaze, had no choice but to leave.
Even outside the hospital room, Li Feng and his wife could still hear Guan Yi’s enraged voice, “Did you hear me? I forbid you to help the Li family. Otherwise, I’ll revoke your position!”
Feeling helpless, Hai Xi looked at her husband and asked with concern, “What should we do now, dear? Jin’s granduncle entrusted Li Industries to us before he left, and now we’re facing problems. What should we do?”
Li Feng, a mere scholar, had never encountered such a situation. With a profound sense of despair, he said, “Let’s see how it goes. If it doesn’t work out, we’ll have to contact Uncle and ask for guidance.”
Back in Hai City without success, Li Feng and his wife, feeling defeated, faced their daughter Li Jin’s inquiry. “Mom, Dad, how was it? Is the Guan family willing to help?”
Li Feng sighed, “Your Grandpa Guan believes that Li Zhe killed Meng Yu and refuses to help.”
Li Jin’s eyes flickered slightly, surprised at Lin Mi’s manipulation of the situation.
Although Meng Yu and Li Zhe officially died in the riot, Guan Yi firmly believed Li Zhe was the culprit.
Nevertheless, this was the outcome she desired, and Li Jin didn’t want to delve into the details.
Worry clouded Li Jin’s face as she suggested, “If the Guan family won’t help, what should we do? Should we talk to granduncle and others?”
Li Feng sighed again, “Your granduncle is still in America dealing with the identification of the bodies. Let’s not disturb him. We’ll endure a bit longer.
It’s tough for them too.”
Li Jin nodded in deep concern.
Li Feng was naively optimistic. In these past few days, Li Industries had encountered a series of troubles, causing a state of unrest and anxiety throughout the entire company.
First, Li Zhe’s announcement of his homosexuality led to a power struggle within the family. Then, Li Dan fell into a coma, followed by Li Zhe’s tragic death. Almost all of Li Industries’ projects were now in jeopardy.
With Li Yuan and his son absent from the company, only Li Feng and his wife, who knew little about business, along with the equally inexperienced Lin Jin, were left in charge.
This uncertainty caused unease among the employees.
The stock prices plummeted once again, leaving Li Feng and his wife deeply alarmed..
