Chapter 9 Visiting the Li Family

Feelings can be cultivated...

These words are simply Xu Guanzhou's tactic to delay the attack!

From beginning to end, he never thought about letting Cheng Lu sit in Mrs. Xu's position.

He even gave Wen Keke the money to study abroad!

That is their joint property during marriage!

Cheng Lu sneered: "Dad, don't be soft-hearted anymore, I have no feelings for Xu Guanzhou anymore! That land must not be used by the Xu family to build a medical center! They are unkind, so don't blame us for being unjust!"

If you dare to touch their Cheng family’s cake, ask her first if she agrees!

Forget it if it were anyone else, why is Xu the Xu family?

In his previous life, it was precisely because of his cooperation with Guanghong Industrial that Xu Guanzhou soared into the sky and became an upstart among the wealthy families in Sichuan City.

Along with Wen Keke, the tide has also risen, and she has jumped from a poor little person who is ignored in the circle to a popular one.

"Tomorrow they will go to negotiate the contract with the Li family. Do you think the Xu family will be angry if the contract goes through at this juncture? Xu Guanzhou will be so angry that he will jump to his feet, right?"

Cheng Lu narrowed his eyes, looking cold and gloomy.

In the evening, a beautiful and beautiful woman came to the Li family villa.

She knocked on the door and announced her identity: "I am Cheng Lu, and I have a way to save the life of the old man of the Li family."

Butler Li's face was full of vigilance and suspicion, and he looked her up and down for a long time.

"Cheng Lu? Are you the eldest lady of the Cheng family who just follows Xu Guanzhou? Why are you talking nonsense in front of our house so late! Our old man is fine!"

She is not angry even if the other party treats her like a straw bag.

This is the consistent impression of her from the upper class circles in Sichuan City, but she was indeed too in love before.

Cheng Lu smiled: "Really? If you miss this opportunity, your old man will lose ten years of his life. Doesn't that matter?"

Butler Li's eyes rolled around and he fell silent.

The old man of the Li family is eighty this year. If his life is shortened by ten years, doesn’t it mean that he is not far from death?

More importantly, only those closest to the Li family knew about the old man's condition. Where did the eldest lady learn about it?

Cheng Lu calmly said: "Steward Li, you have been working in the Li family for nearly forty years. You and Mrs. Li are like father and son. You know clearly who I am. If I really say nonsense, you Li

My family won’t let me go, so why should I?”

The woman in front of her smiled sweetly, and her flower-like appearance became even more elegant and beautiful under the moonlight.

Butler Li was a little surprised.

Cheng Lu treated him with respect, unlike those distinguished guests who prided themselves on their status, and never took him as a butler seriously.

Butler Li couldn't help but have a better impression of her.

"You...come with me."

Butler Li led her to the door of a room: "Wait."

After a while, another middle-aged woman came out with a traditional hairstyle and a tight face: "Is that her?"

Butler Li's voice came from behind her: "Yes, she is the daughter of the Cheng family."

"Where did you learn that our old man was sick?" The woman's eyes were as sharp as a knife.

Cheng Lu: "The Li family is about to negotiate a contract with Xu Guanzhou. Didn't the Xu family promise to help you find the medicinal materials to treat the old man? I am Xu Guanzhou's ex-wife, what's the difficulty in knowing this?"

The middle-aged woman narrowed her eyes: "What do you mean?"

"Xu Guanzhou has already obtained the medicinal materials that can treat Mr. Li, but he deliberately told you that he is still looking for it, in order to wait until the contract is reached. After that, he will hand over the medicinal materials."

Cheng Lu smiled, "Do you still want me to continue? I think Ms. Li should know this truth better than I do."

The middle-aged woman is none other than Mr. Li’s youngest daughter, Li Xiumeng.

She gritted her teeth: "Why should I believe you?!"

"We have no conflict of interest. I came here just to break the Xu family's contract. You must also know that Xu Guanzhou and I have divorced. Of course I hope that Mrs. Li can live for a long time, otherwise why would I come here in person?

One trip?”

"Do you really... have a way to cure him?"

"Let me give it a try. Anyway, you don't have a better way. If I fail, just pretend that I haven't been here today. You can continue to negotiate the contract with Xu Guanzhou tomorrow, and you can still get the medicinal materials smoothly."

Li Xiumeng hesitated for a moment before completely opening the door to the room.

"Miss Cheng, please."

Old Mrs. Li was lying on the bed. He was conscious, but he could no longer get up. He was so angry that it was difficult to speak.

Before Cheng Lu could move forward, she noticed a strong sick air rushing towards her.

The cold, fishy smell makes people shudder.

It was more intense and overbearing than the illness in Cheng Qiuhan.

It is enough to show that Mrs. Li's body is really seriously ill...

Cheng Lu walked to his bedside and gently touched Old Mrs. Li's arm. A touch of strength formed in his fingertips, and he began to slowly dissolve the strong illness.

After a while, her head was covered with sweat and her lips turned white.

Mr. Li, who was lying on the bed, breathed a long sigh of relief and looked much better.

Li Xiumeng saw that she was silent and wanted to urge her twice. Seeing this scene, she was surprised and happy.

"dad!!"

With Li Xiumeng's help, Mrs. Li sat up and was able to speak: "I feel much more comfortable..."

Cheng Lu's eyes darkened and his ears buzzed, as if he heard the voice before his rebirth - Do you want to change everything?

Strange, why does this voice seem familiar?

A flash passed through her mind, and soon she could no longer capture that familiar feeling.

"Miss Cheng, Miss Cheng!" Li Xiumeng called anxiously.

Cheng Lu calmed down and opened his eyes: "I'm fine."

Li Xiumeng breathed a sigh of relief, with tears in her eyes: "Thank you, Miss Cheng, for your help. My dad is feeling better. He was still clamoring for something to eat just now."

Mrs. Li's illness has been lingering in bed for many days. He is feeling weak and has no appetite. His family took him to seek medical treatment secretly and visited many famous doctors, but found nothing.

Many things in the Li family are unresolved now, and Mr. Li cannot let problems arise at this juncture.

Cheng Lu smiled bitterly: "Mr. Li's situation is more serious than I thought."

Li Xiumeng was surprised: "Miss Cheng is also helpless?"

She shook her head: "I need to come a few more times to make Mr. Li fully recover. As for the Xu family..."

Li Xiumeng said hurriedly: "Miss Cheng, don't worry, you saved my father, of course we will meet your request."

"I won't let you help me in vain. I can tell you where Xu Guanzhou hid the medicinal materials. In order to ensure the freshness of the medicinal materials, he did not dare to remove the soil. Just go and get the medicinal materials and cooperate with my treatment.

, Mrs. Li will get better faster."

When Li Xiumeng heard this, she was so moved that she almost cried.

Cheng Lu wrote an address on the paper and handed it to Li Xiumeng.

This was also what she learned from Xu Guanzhou in her previous life.

In Xu Guanzhou's eyes, Cheng Lu was a woman who would never disobey him, let alone betray him. He would not deliberately hide these things.

It happened to be used by her in this life!

Tuk-tuk-tuk, a rapid knock on the door sounded...
