Rebirth: I Became Mr.President's Beloved-Chapter 1177: That Child Must Return to My Side
Li Ling, draped in a silk robe, rushed into the massage room and upon opening the door, she saw the ’intruder’ with a face mask on!
Her territory had already been occupied by the other party.
As for the beautician she brought from the Li Family, they were having a cheerful chat with the intruder.
Since both the Li and Xie families were of Chinese descent, the hired technicians knew a bit of the Siamese language.
Watching the beautician playing sycophant while doing the freeloader’s nails, Li Ling let out a cold laugh, stomping into the room in her rhinestone-studded flip-flops, her tone dripping with sarcasm: "Early in the morning, already having massages and face masks, but it’s no wonder, after living poor for so long, you must want to indulge a bit."
Tang Li leaned back on the massage chair, her lips moving slightly under the mask: "Of course, you must start early, otherwise, when those freeloading relatives mooching off us arrive, who knows when it will be my turn."
Li Ling: "..."
Unable to mock her, yet being mocked herself, Li Ling fumed silently.
Immediately, she noticed Tang Li was using her custom face masks!
Not to mention each mask cost two thousand bucks, and they were limited in number!
Li Ling stepped forward, about to tear the face mask off Tang Li’s face, but Tang Li caught her wrist first.
"Who gave you the right to use my face masks?!" Li Ling demanded.
"These are Aunt Ling’s masks?"
Tang Li sat up and looked at Li Ling: "But I heard these masks are charged to the Li Family’s account?"
Li Ling: "..."
Tang Li continued: "Aunt Ling, you settled in with the Li Family, and the massage and beauty therapists you brought along, they’re on the Li Family’s payroll, right?"
Li Ling moved into the old house with her son, and although she occasionally returned to the Xie family, she spent most of the year there, gradually becoming less of an ’outsider.’
Plus, given that the old man valued Xie Zhun, Wan Nala, as a housekeeper, naturally handled the payroll for the people Li Ling brought along.
In the end, it wasn’t much money.
Li Ling wasn’t unable to pay.
However, facing this freeloader’s nitpicking, Li Ling was so angry she laughed: "So, you kicked people out yesterday, and today you’re planning to manage finances?"
"I’m not managing any finances." Tang Li leaned back in the chair: "The Li Family will be mine sooner or later, why would I care about this small amount of money?"
"..." Li Ling twitched her mouth.
After finishing her nails, Tang Li, still with the face mask on, left.
Tang Li stopped by the door, telling Li Ling: "Since Aunt Ling and Cousin are returning to the Xie family today, to avoid waste, I didn’t have the kitchen prepare lunch for you, so make sure to head back early."
Li Ling could no longer hold back, pointing to the door: "Get out."
Tang Li strutted out.
Li Ling: "..."
Li Ruan came to pick her up, and Tang Li also noticed his dark circles.
Li Ruan started the car engine, explaining: "I don’t know which drunkard smashed several windows at home in the middle of the night."
"Didn’t catch the person?" Tang Li asked.
The security in the Siam isn’t as good as in other places, and there’s no surveillance on the roads.
By the time Li Ruan got downstairs and outside, the place was already deserted.
This morning, as his father went to work, someone splashed a bucket of horse urine on him as he stepped out the door.
Luckily, Supa avoided it in time, otherwise, it wouldn’t have just been the shoes getting soiled.
Upon hearing this, Tang Li couldn’t help but glance at Li Ruan: "Then, if I go out with you, might I also get attacked?"
Li Ruan: "..."
"Your family is clearly being targeted." Tang Li began to regret getting into the car: "Caught in the crossfire, I should have asked Director Wang to pick me up instead."
Li Ruan: "..."
Tang Li went to the hospital today for a paternity test.
——Her and Li Hao’s hair samples were collected on the spot; Li Ruan would deliver them to the testing agency.
Upon arriving at the hospital, Li Ruan was stopped by relatives.
Tang Li went into the ward first.
At the entrance, she heard a conversation between a man and a woman.
The male voice was naturally Li Hao.
As for the female voice——
It wasn’t one Tang Li recognized.
Thinking not to disturb them, Tang Li stayed at the corner, inevitably overhearing the rest of the conversation.
"That child must return to my side, I don’t want to wait any longer."
After the woman spoke, Li Hao proposed conditions: "I will fulfill my promise to you, and I hope you won’t disappoint me."
Tang Li assumed it was Li Family business, but then the woman added—
"Once I see the child, I will naturally give you the account books."
