From Rejected Fake Heiress to Desired True Love-Chapter 789: Nosebleed

Li Yehan walked in briskly, his expression solemn.

Nan Qiao didn’t expect Li Yehan to finish washing so quickly. Upon closer inspection, he hadn’t showered; he was still wearing the clothes he wore for dinner.

"I’m fine, maybe I ate too much nourishing food, went overboard. Don’t worry."

Nan Qiao spoke to comfort Li Yehan.

Li Yehan’s expression was still very solemn: "Don’t talk."

Nan Qiao also stopped talking. Li Yehan helped her deal with the nosebleed, fearing the bleeding wouldn’t stop.

However, that was indeed the case. The nosebleed seemed unstoppable, making Li Yehan frown deeply.

Nan Qiao didn’t expect Li Yehan to witness this situation. She wanted to say something, but felt powerless and didn’t know what to say.

Unpleasant emotions surged in her heart. Nan Qiao slightly tilted her head back, trying to slow the blood flow and stop it quickly.

"Don’t tilt your head back like that, it may cause blood to flow backward, increasing the risk."

Nan Qiao obediently complied, and Li Yehan looked at her being so well-behaved, helpless yet heartbroken.

Finally, after the bleeding stopped, Nan Qiao stuffed tissue in her nostril, looking a bit amusing.

Li Yehan couldn’t laugh, but Nan Qiao did.

"You’re still laughing." Li Yehan was rather helpless.

"If I don’t laugh, I can’t cry either. It’s just a nosebleed, not like I’m dying. Why are you being so serious? Don’t worry, it’s just a small issue, nothing too serious."

Li Yehan: "..."

"How long has this been happening?"

Nan Qiao paused, her expression lighthearted: "The first time it happened, you were there. Husband, really, you don’t need to worry, it’s nothing."

Nan Qiao hugged Li Yehan’s arm, leaning against his chest.

In the past, Li Yehan would have pushed away any approaching woman.

Plus, he had a cleanliness obsession, making it even less likely for someone with a nosebleed to get close to him.

But now, he calmly embraced it all, even holding Nan Qiao.

"Whenever you call me husband, it’s never good."

Nan Qiao: "..."

"If I don’t call you husband, what should I call you? Mr. Li? Boss Li?"

Li Yehan was helpless; he really had no means against Nan Qiao.

——

Ensuring Nan Qiao wouldn’t bleed again, Li Yehan took her to shower.

Li Yehan helped her wash, unwilling to let her do it herself, fearing anything might go wrong again.

After the shower, Nan Qiao soon fell asleep.

As for Li Yehan, he watched the sleeping Nan Qiao, took out his phone, and went out to the balcony to make a call.

"Old Wu, make arrangements. Tomorrow, I’ll head over."

"Mr. Li, are you really going? If you do, your safety can’t be guaranteed. What if they ambush you and you fall into their trap?" Old Wu was extremely worried, almost wanting to go in Li Yehan’s place. 𝒇𝙧𝙚𝓮𝙬𝙚𝓫𝒏𝓸𝓿𝓮𝒍.𝓬𝙤𝓶

In Old Wu’s view, Li Yehan’s actions equated to seeking death.

Delivering oneself to death was not something the wise Li Yehan would do.

Li Yehan sternly rebuked, "Do as I say!"

Old Wu could only resign himself: "Okay, Mr. Li, I’ll arrange everything as you said."

Li Yehan sat on the balcony, fingers holding a cigarette, pondering lighting it before putting the lighter down.

Qiaoqiao doesn’t like the smell of smoke, especially since she’s pregnant, he can’t do things Qiaoqiao dislikes.

Li Yehan leaned against the chair back, his expression heavier than the night.

After a while, Li Yehan returned to the bedroom.

He waited for his body to warm up slightly before getting into bed, to avoid bringing the chill to Nan Qiao.

He waited for a long time before holding Nan Qiao to sleep.

At this moment, pretending to sleep, Nan Qiao opened her eyes.

She hadn’t heard what Li Yehan discussed with Old Wu, the house’s soundproofing too effective.

But she knew it definitely wasn’t a trivial matter; something big was sure to happen.

——

The day after Li Tianyi returned, Old Mr. Li came.

Old Mr. Li brought Uncle Fu with him, sitting in the living room, his expression still very tranquil, as if nothing had happened.

In contrast, Li Tianyi felt a bit awkward. Meeting again at the same old place reminded him of the time he nearly killed Old Mr. Li.

The father and son faced each other. Old Mr. Li called out, "Ah Fu, go wait outside. I have something to discuss with Tianyi."

Li Tianyi was inexplicably tense, unsure what Old Mr. Li wanted to talk about.

Once someone has done something wrong, it’s easy to feel awkward and imagine things, especially when facing the person involved.

"Dad, what do you want to talk about?" Li Tianyi asked respectfully.

"Tianyi, actually, I came here for an important matter I want to discuss with you. Don’t be tense, because the more tense parts come later."

Li Tianyi: ??

Old Mr. Li’s words seemed off.

Old Mr. Li continued, "I heard your conversation with Mei Tian Sha Zi completely."

Li Tianyi: "!!"

Li Tianyi showed a shocked expression, looking at all this in disbelief, falling into panic.

He really hadn’t expected Old Mr. Li to know about these things!

He had actually heard it!

Old Mr. Li continued, "I never thought my dear son would want my life. I blame myself for not carefully guiding you, letting you leave home and associate with bad people. But later I realize, is your association with bad people voluntary or forced? Finally, I’m sure you chose it willingly because that’s the kind of person you are inside!"

Li Tianyi: "..."

Li Tianyi, having experienced much, controlled his expression, revealing a helpless, bittersweet, and confused demeanor.

"Dad, do you really think I’m that kind of person? I clearly haven’t done anything; why would you wrong me? You’re my dad; how could I wish you harm?"

"I heard your secret. You told why you wanted me dead. You’re just like Li Tianhong, one foolish, one evil, none good."

Despite wanting to explain further, Old Mr. Li didn’t give him a chance.

"I will reclaim this house; I’ll also take back the shares and money I gave you. Moreover, I’ll publicly sever our father-son relationship. From now on, you’re no longer my son. Our father-son bond ends here!"

If he had evidence, he would have long sent Li Tianyi to the police.

He only heard Li Tianyi’s conversation with Mei Tian Sha Zi, but he couldn’t provide any substantial proof to the authorities.

Li Tianyi was bewildered by the sudden turn of events.

How was he discovered so inexplicably?

"What, are you regretting not killing me at the hospital?"

"Dad! I never thought that way! You’re my dad; how could I kill you!"

Thud.

Li Tianyi knelt before Old Mr. Li.

He wanted to use familial ties to win Old Mr. Li back.

He couldn’t fail!

Failing the mission meant facing extremely frightening consequences!

"Enough, you don’t need to pretend profound fatherly affection in front of me. I’m old, but not stupid. Li Tianyi, you are removed from the Li Family!"
