Why Did You Provoke Her? She Can Tell Fortunes!-Chapter 307 - 280: Let Me Ask You What You Want to Do
Knowing full well he had done something so wrong, nearly blowing up someone else’s two daughters, Li Jianwei was now so scared at the sight of his brother that he almost fell to the ground.
"It’s really you!?"
"What do you want from me?"
Seeing is believing.
He couldn’t help but believe it now.
The only explanation was that his brother’s ghost crawled up from the ground to find him,
"What do I want?"
The people next door suddenly saw Li Moli stand up extremely agitatedly and slam the table hard.
"Shouldn’t I be asking you what you want?"
"You almost killed my two daughters!"
Perhaps the shock of seeing the dead back to life was too much, or the anger pent up inside for too long. At that moment, anger actually overcame fear in his heart.
Li Jianwei changed his attitude and replied with a stiff neck:
"Yes, I planted that bomb."
"I wanted to kill those two sisters, so what?"
"You all forced me to do it!"
Upon hearing his confession of guilt, the police watching from the next room were not the least bit pleased. Instead, they looked at each other.
Because at that moment, Li Jianwei appeared very strange to them.
Clearly, the person talking to him was Li Moli, but he referred to ’those two sisters’...
Unless he thought that the person talking to him wasn’t Li Moli.
They didn’t dare think further and continued listening intently to the conversation between the two.
Li Jianwei had already begun to pour out his grievances, spilling all the reasons for his actions.
"We grew up together as both sons of that old lady, why did she leave me with nothing after she died?"
"Don’t think I don’t know, over the years the government must have given plenty of subsidies, plus the old lady’s welfare, and the house from the demolition... I’ve kept all of this in mind!"
"It’s one thing to favor you, but your family has two daughters who will ultimately belong to other families once they’re married. They won’t have to worry about food and drink, and it will have nothing to do with the Lao Li Family anymore."
"But it’s different for my family. My son is the legitimate heir who will carry on the Lao Li Family. He’s her own grandson, and yet she was so heartless not to leave us any money until her last breath!"
Because of the lack of money, his son was still unmarried.
The previous girlfriends he found all broke up because he couldn’t afford to buy a house.
So he decided to take a ’gamble’.
"As long as your two daughters are blown up, it wouldn’t matter even if the police caught me."
"After all, there’d be no one left in the Lao Li Family, and since they aren’t married yet, all assets would eventually fall under my son’s name."
He didn’t care about his own outcome, as long as his son was fine.
Li Jianwei snorted through his nose.
"Don’t say you’re looking for me now, even if that old lady came to me, I wouldn’t be afraid!"
He didn’t feel he was wrong.
"Even if I had to do it all over again, I’d make the same choice."
"Such blatant favoritism, no matter how you justify it, is unheard of elsewhere!"
’Li Moli’ remained silent.
Her eyes looked complex as she gazed at her brother across from her.
There was resentment, bewilderment, and a deep sense of sorrow.
But it seemed she had always expected such a situation, and she let out a bitter laugh.
"What are you laughing at?" Li Jianwei asked.
"I’m laughing at how selfish you always are."
"What did you say?"
’Li Moli’ nodded and said, "Alright, since you want to argue, let’s argue thoroughly."
She had never spoken these words to him before, not expecting it would nearly lead to such dire consequences. In truth, she still held a sliver of hope for this younger brother in her heart.
"You said mom didn’t leave you any money, right?"
"That’s right."
"And you said she got government subsidies and saved up quite a bit over the years?"
Li Jianwei thought he was bragging, so he turned away, too angry to speak.
"Well, let me tell you now, when mom passed, her bank account was already empty!"
Li Jianwei froze at the sudden outburst, "What? How is that possible?"
"Why wouldn’t it be? In her last few years, mom was bedridden, nearly spending half every month in the hospital. Did you think they let us stay there for free?"
Li Jianwei stopped talking.
He was clearly thinking.
"Even though the state covered a lot, hospitals aren’t charities, and the remaining amount quickly drained the savings she had built up over the years in just six months."
’Li Moli’ glanced at him, then continued, "After that, I took care of all the expenses for mom!"
He hadn’t mentioned it before because he didn’t want to ’boast’ about it.
Making it seem like something he was supposed to do but still wanted to announce everywhere.
He wasn’t that kind of person.
Li Jianwei paused for a good while.
But he still unwillingly answered, "No money in the bank? Fine."
"But is the house empty too?"
’Li Moli’ curled her lips with a mocking expression, finally seeing the true nature of her younger brother.
He didn’t ask about the expenses for caring for the elderly.
But the house had to be fought over.
"Indeed, the house was left to me by the old lady."
Li Jianwei clapped his hands, "That’s more like it."
"I won’t go into details, but it’s at least 150,000 yuan!"
Although that house wasn’t worth much to some people in the city now,
To someone like him who didn’t work much when young, had no pension in old age, and lived on welfare, with a son who also didn’t have a stable job and earned money on an ad-hoc basis, it meant a fortune.
Especially if their family had the house, his son could’ve married ages ago.
Otherwise, why would he still be single in his thirties?
’Li Moli’ nodded and candidly admitted.
"Yes."
"Have you forgotten something?"
Looking at Li Jianwei’s face, he said, "Don’t you remember what you said when the old lady wanted to move in with you during her twilight years?"
Li Jianwei’s pupils trembled after a few seconds of reaction.
"Looks like you remembered."
Suddenly, Li Jianwei’s expression turned extremely unpleasant. 𝐟𝚛𝕖𝚎𝕨𝗲𝐛𝚗𝐨𝐯𝐞𝕝.𝐜𝗼𝗺
He indeed remembered it.
At that time, their house was still a bungalow.
After getting married, he moved out to rent a place in the town, leaving his brother alone to take care of their aging mother with two small children. When her health worsened and she wanted to move to the town, he responded with a ruthless refusal.
Back then, he said he wouldn’t let her come no matter what, even saying that after the old lady died, she didn’t have to leave him any inheritance.
