When Li Xiuqi heard this, his eyes widened in shock. As for struggling, he gave up from the moment he was caught by Li Jingchen.
"Jingchen! Why are you telling a child this?"
Li Yuanzhong didn't expect that Li Jingchen would say this in front of Li Xiuqi, and he felt angry and regretful at the same time.
Wen Zhong said anxiously: "Yes, young master, forget it if you don't agree! Why do you want to say it?"
If young master Xiu Qi thought they were going to abandon him, wouldn't that be bad?
Li Jingchen patted Li Xiuqi's dull face with the back of his hand and said coldly: "Did you hear that? They all admitted it."
Li Xiuqi slowly turned his eyes and looked at Li Yuanzhong and the others sadly: "Is what great-grandfather...Butler Wen...uncle said true?"
Wen Zhong glanced at Tang Qiong and lowered his voice in embarrassment: "Young Master Xiu Qi, you also know the situation at home. I'm afraid..."
Li Xiuqi suddenly shouted: "Let me ask you, is what uncle said true?"
Wen Zhong couldn't help but knelt down and said to him: "Listen to me, I originally wanted to ask the eldest young master to take care of you for a while, but the eldest young master did not agree, so the master and I decided to give up and stop forcing it."
Hearing this, the blood quickly drained from Li Xiuqi's face, and he murmured: "In other words, what uncle said is true? Are you really planning a future for me?"
Seeing the shaky trust in Li Xiuqi's eyes, Wen Zhong said in a panic: "No, it's not like that..."
But how should he explain it?
Everyone knows that the eldest young master is now the leader of the Li Group and the Deepwater Port. While he is the leader, he also has countless wealth. Once Li Xiuqi is under his name, it will be more legitimate for him to get a share of the pie in the future.
An An, who was on the side, had not yet fully figured out the situation, but this did not prevent him from interceding for Li Xiuqi.
In order to get Li Jingchen to let go of Li Xiuqi, An An couldn't help but said softly: "Dad, since this is the idea of great-grandfather and Butler Wen, can't you just explain it to them clearly? Why take it out on Xiu Qi? He doesn't have anything.
I know."
While talking, An An did not forget to muster up her courage and try to break open Li Jingchen's fist that was holding Li Xiuqi's collar: "Dad, if you have something to say, can you let go of Xiu Qi first?"
But soon, An An was gently hugged by a pair of hands from behind.
An An was startled, turned around, and found that the person hugging him was Lu Wanwan.
Lu Wanwan shook his head at him.
An An let go of her hand blankly.
Lu Wanwan immediately brought him to sit next to him.
An An leaned in Lu Wanwan's arms, looking at the scene in front of her, and asked anxiously: "Mommy, why don't you let me stop Dad from being violent to Xiu Qi?"
Lu Wanwan touched his head and said softly: "Dad didn't do violence to Xiu Qi. Xiu Qi is not injured now, is he?"
An An frowned and looked at Li Xiuqi with worried eyes: "But... he looks like he was frightened by his father."
Lu Wanwan said softly: "I think Xiu Qi is more concerned about your great-grandfather and the others hiding something from him than being scared by your father.
Before you figure out the truth of the matter, if you rush to stop them, you will only interrupt their conversation.
