Li Xing was riding a tricycle. As soon as he entered the yard, he heard Li Yi roaring like a lion:
"piss off--!"
Li Yi would definitely not dare to speak like this to Anna, so who would he talk to?
Li Xing quickly collected the tricycle and walked into the house in two steps. He was surprised to see the old god Yang Zhou sitting on the ground in the living room, drinking tea with his legs crossed.
"Principal Yang? Why are you here?"
"Come and support you."
Li Xing was confused: "What?"
Yang Zhou smiled, pointed upstairs, and motioned to Li Xing to sit down and watch the show.
After a while, footsteps were heard on the stairs. Li Yi walked in front with a slumped face, followed by Anna who looked equally ashen. The last person was unknown to Li Xing. He had oily hair parted in the middle and was dressed like a rich butler.
.
Seeing Li Xing come back, Li Yi's expression was a little unnatural. He deliberately didn't look in her direction and said to the housekeeper angrily:
"Steward Wang, please be sure to tell the Lord of the City that our whole family is not interested in what he and the Lord's wife proposed! Let's stop talking about this matter."
It turned out that the man was really a housekeeper, and he belonged to the city lord's house. Although Datan City was a small place, the city lord was the highest administrative officer. He could stomp around Datan City even if he stepped on it. What was his housekeeper coming to Li's house to talk about?
Although Steward Wang is a second-rank official in front of the prime minister, he is a servant, and there are many people who flatter him on weekdays. He has not seen the faces of ordinary people in many years, and he is also holding back his anger today. See you now.
The real owner is back, and the arrogance that was originally suppressed by Li Yi is rising again.
"Mr. Li, you can't say that, can you? As far as I know, Miss Li is an orphan. You and your wife are not her biological parents. They can only be regarded as guardians in the legal sense. Now that she is over 16 years old, your legal obligations
It was also lifted and Ms. Li could make the decision on her own affairs.
Besides, you have a noble bloodline, but you are an ordinary person. How can you decide life events for a double-black lady? I think you should seek Miss Li's own opinion. You must know that the conditions offered by our city lord are extremely generous.
Yes, even a noble lady from the upper city cannot get such sincerity!"
"you--!"
Li Yi's face was livid, and his fists were clenched tightly. If he hadn't been afraid of hitting someone and hurting Li Xing and Anna, he would have killed this kid here today.
Li Yi ended his words angrily, and Butler Wang felt proud. He turned to Li Xing and smiled: "Is this Miss Li Xing? She is indeed the leading beauty in Datan City!"
Butler Wang now finally understands why the city asked him to facilitate this matter. Let alone Datan, even in the middle city and the upper city, such beautiful and pure double blacks are rare.
If we don't cook this delicate flower while other nobles and celebrities don't notice it, it will be difficult to deal with any accidents in the future.
Li Xing's thoughts raced, and he finally understood what Yang Zhou meant by supporting him, and he suddenly felt disgusted.
How old is she before anyone cares about her?
"Butler Wang, right? You are right, I am indeed adopted, but nurturing kindness is better than giving birth to kindness. The relationship between Uncle Li and Aunt Anna and me is not limited to an adoption document. They are my elders.
Although we are not related by blood, we have been family members all our lives. No matter I am sixteen or sixty, they both have the right to bypass me and directly make decisions for me in all my matters."
"Steward Wang, no matter what the city lord proposes, Uncle Li and Aunt Anna have already rejected it on my behalf. What they mean is what I mean. There is no room for change in this matter. If you continue to entangle me, don't blame me, Li Xing, for turning against me!
"
Li Xing originally wanted to take out the Sirius Sword to scare him, but thinking that Anna was still there and not to be accidentally injured by the Sirius Sword's evil spirit, he decided to forget it.
"This..." Butler Wang didn't expect Li Xing to value Li Yi and Anna so much. They are just two inferior civilians, how can they make the decision for Shuanghei?
"Principal Yang, look at this..." It's okay for two civilians to take over their duties. Yang Zhou, who is also a double black, should express some different opinions, right?
"What do I think? What do I think about other people's affairs? Rejection is rejection. Is it possible that the master of Datan City is robbing civilian girls?"
"Don't dare, don't dare!"
Butler Wang was sweating when he heard that Yang Zhou was wrong.
This is the young master of the Yang family. Although he was demoted to Datan by the family, he actually protected him in the name of demotion. It is said that the current head of the Yang family thinks highly of him, and maybe the next head of the family will be this Yang Zhou.
The appointment of the small city lord was only a matter of lip service among the upper-class nobles. If the city lord himself were here, he would not dare to make a mistake in front of Yang Zhou.
"Go back and tell Wang Jin that his son doesn't even have a spirit. Even if he is married to a dragon girl, he can't give birth to a unicorn child. Put away your unrealistic fantasies and honestly find an ordinary person who you like to marry. Don't think about swans.
Eat meat!”
Only Yang Zhou dared to mock the city lord's son as a toad.
"Yes, yes." Butler Wang was stunned and walked away dejectedly.
"Aunt Anna, what's wrong with you?" Butler Wang was scolded by Yang Zhou. Anna was still wiping tears. Even Li Yi's eye circles were red. Could it be that it was backfired and the more he thought about it, the more he felt aggrieved?
"It's okay, I'm just happy...Xiaoxing, sit with Brother Yang for a while, and I'll cook for you. Let's have a good meal tonight to celebrate!"
Anna hugged Li Xing hard, turned around and entered the kitchen.
Xiaoxing said that they were a lifelong family and she was so happy.
"Nana, let me help you."
Li Yi proudly passed Li Xing and followed him into the kitchen. As he walked, he muttered: "This girl is really coaxing people to death without paying for their lives. I don't know which brat will get an advantage in the future..."
Li Xing has never changed her name to their parents for so many years. Li Yi and Anna can understand. After all, when they adopted her, she was already six years old and knew a lot of things.
Maybe Li Xing knew that he was adopted, so he couldn't treat Li Yi and Anna as his biological parents. Li Yi and Anna never blamed Li Xing, but they inevitably felt regretful.
Today, this child actually said that it is better to cultivate kindness than to give birth to kindness. They are family members for life. The little regrets in Li Yi and Anna's hearts disappeared immediately.
Oh, it’s worth it!
Li Xing sat back down opposite Yang Zhou, poured himself a cup of tea, touched Yang Zhou's cup lightly and said:
"Principal, thank you."
Yang Zhou was so happy that he picked up the tea cup and drank it all in one gulp: "I didn't expect you to react very quickly."
Li Xing rolled her eyes. She was not an inexperienced little girl. If she still couldn't guess that Butler Wang was here to propose marriage, she might as well give up.
"You came back halfway. I don't know what conditions the city lord has imposed. Do you want me to tell you?"
"What conditions?"
"Steward Wang said that as long as you are willing to nod, the city lord will give you a luxurious villa in the city center and ten popular shops facing the street as a thank you gift to the Li family to thank them for raising you for ten years. The betrothal gift is whatever you want, no matter what you do
As much as you want, you can add one thousandth of the equity of Wantong Department Store to the original basis."
Wantong Department Store is the largest chain of shopping malls in the Federation, with branches all over the cities. One thousandth of the equity of Wantong Department Store is a huge fortune.
"Ouch - is this a job or a job?" To be honest, the feeling of being thrown away money for the purpose of marrying someone who has no feelings is not a good feeling.
But wealth touches people's hearts, and Li Xing knows how much courage it takes for Li Yi and Anna, who live in poverty, to refuse such a large fortune.
Li Xing knew in his heart that these two people really regarded her as their own daughter, and they could not do anything like selling their daughter for glory.
