Chapter 337: Chapter 338, the last wish

The Li family.

Li Jingran’s return was so sudden that the servants in the house were unprepared. They were busy cleaning the upstairs.

The Butler had a worried look on his face as he hid at the stairway and paced up and down.

Director Li was in the study room. He did not know how Miss Xu was going to tell him about the old man.

Xu Wanwan was sitting across from the man at the moment. Her heart had been brewing for a long time, but when she looked up and saw the man’s deep and deep eyes, she still felt flustered for no reason.

How should she say it..

Li Jingran pushed the document in his hand aside and put his arms on the table. He glanced at the girl indifferently. “Didn’t you have something important to tell me?”

Xu Wanwan took a light breath and mustered up her courage. “Promise me first. No matter what I say later, don’t be angry with me.”

The man’s cold side face softened for a moment. “Okay.”

“Uncle... Uncle Li is sick.”Xu Wanwan’s voice was a little shaky. Her hands, which were hanging by her side, were tightly intertwined, “At that time, you were busy working overseas. We were afraid that all your previous efforts would go to waste, so we hid this matter from you.”

Li Jingran’s expression gradually darkened. His sharp eyes seemed to be able to see through everything. His Adam’s apple moved down for a moment. “Are you very sick?”

Seeing the girl’s troubled expression, he roughly guessed something.

Xu Wanwan nodded silently. “Yes.”

......

A moment later, Li Jingran composed himself, got up, took his coat, and strode away.

Xu Wanwan’s expression was complicated, and her heart was also very uncomfortable. She quickly ran out.

The moment the study door opened, Li Jingran happened to bump into the housekeeper standing guard at the door.

He sneered, “Very well, even you would hide it from me.”

The Butler’s heart sank. “Director Li, I –”

Before he could finish his explanation, Li Jingran turned sideways and a gust of cold wind blew beside him.

“Wait for me!”

Xu Wanwan did not have time to delay and hurriedly chased after him.

Along the way, the man’s face was gloomy and he did not say a word.

The atmosphere in the car had dropped to freezing point. The cold wind whistling past their ears made their bodies and Hearts Shiver. Follow current s on Noᴠel Fɪre.net - ɴovᴇlbin

Xu Wanwan was uneasy. Her fingers were tangled together, and her mind was filled with the image of mother Li not welcoming her.

If she followed her now, mother Li would definitely be very angry.

The car arrived at the Li family’s old residence at the fastest speed. Li Jingran got out of the car and rushed straight to the second floor.

Mother Li had just walked out of the room when she asked in surprise, “Jingran, why are you here?”

As soon as she finished speaking, she saw Xu Wanwan. Her expression immediately turned cold and a hint of viciousness flashed in her eyes.

“Li Jingran, your father is very sick right now. If you still wish for his well-being, get this woman out of Here!”

Xu Wanwan stood rooted to the ground and opened her mouth in a hoarse voice. However, she had no reason to defend herself.

Li Jingran’s voice sank. “Open the door.”

“If you don’t chase this woman out today, I will never open this door!”Mother Li’s attitude hardened, and she looked at Xu Wanwan with a gaze as cold as a knife.

Li Jingran loosened his tie impatiently and was about to open the door, but his wrist was suddenly pulled by a soft force.

Xu Wanwan gently pulled on the man’s sleeve and lowered her eyes. “Then I’ll wait for you outside.”

She didn’t want to make things difficult for him. After saying this, she turned around and went downstairs, silently walking out of the house.

Upstairs.

Father Li’s room was filled with the smell of disinfectant. Although the room was quiet and tidy, there was a sense of death in it.

The curtains were tightly shut, and the light in the room was dim. Father Li was lying weakly on the bed. His usually energetic face was no longer there. At this moment, his face was pale and his eyes were cloudy. When he saw Li Jingran.., his haggard voice sounded with difficulty, “Why are you here?”

Li Jingran’s eyes were filled with suppressed emotions. “Dad.”

“The company is so busy. Who asked you to come?”Li Jingran’s father pretended to be fine, but when he spoke, he coughed violently a few times.

Li Jingran’s heart froze, and he said in a deep voice, “Don’t say too much. I’ll go find a doctor for you now.”

He turned around and walked out. His eyes were bloodshot as he tried his best to suppress his emotions.

Mother Li pulled him back and shook her head as if she was resigned to her fate. “Jingran, stop tormenting yourself.”

“Your father has a terminal illness. The current medical conditions can’t cure his illness. Before you came back, I tried everything I could.”

Mother Li’s eyes were bloodshot as she spoke. In front of Li Jingran, she didn’t shed a single tear.

“The Doctor said that we can only rely on drugs to delay his life. If we continue to torture him, it will only cause more pain to your father.”

Li Jingran’s tense shoulders relaxed bit by bit. He leaned against the wall and sighed deeply. “How much time do we have left?”

“No more than a year at most...”

Li Jingran’s mother finally could not take it anymore. She covered her mouth and ran to the side, crying bitterly.

The bustling old house was no longer lively, and everyone’s mood was particularly gloomy.

Li Jingran finished smoking a cigarette at the end of the corridor, pushed the door open again, and walked to Li Jingran’s father’s bed.

Li Jingran’s father had just taken the medicine and was slightly better than before. He put on a straight face and said, “Stinky Brat, who are you throwing a stinky face at?”

Li Jingran stood in front of the bed and looked at the old man who was getting weaker and weaker. He frowned and didn’t say a word.

“You’ve been smart since you were young. You should have guessed my situation, right?”Father Li’s tone suddenly softened and he shook his head in resignation. “I’m old. From now on, the Li Corporation will be in your hands.”

Li Jingran pursed his thin lips and still didn’t say a word.

Father Li continued, “I have everything that I should have in this lifetime. I only have one regret.”

“After living for so long, I want to see you get married and start your own business. Now that you’ve managed the Li Corporation well, I can rest assured. But you can’t live your whole life alone.”

“Just listen to my advice and settle the marriage with Xiao Lin. While I’m still alive, you can consider it as fulfilling my last wish.”

Having said that, father Li had already used up half of his life’s energy.

Li Jingran looked at his turbid eyes and felt complicated. After a long silence, he said in a hoarse voice, “I can’t marry someone I don’t love.”

“Li Jingran, can you bear to watch me die with regret?”Li Jingran’s father was faintly agitated. He coughed heavily a few times and the maid quickly handed him a tissue.

On the wiped tissue, there was a red blood stain that was extremely glaring.

Li Jingran tilted his head and looked away. His hand that was hanging by his side slowly clenched into a fist.

Old Master Li was completely powerless. He half-lay on the bed and panted for a long time. His tone was unprecedentedly low. “Li Jingran, consider it as I’m begging you. Let’s settle the marriage with Xiao Lin.”

Outside the old residence.

Mother Li recomposed her emotions and walked to Xu Wanwan with the document in her hand. She said coldly, “The only wish of Li Jingran’s father before he died was to see him get married.”

“You know that it’s impossible for you to be the one to get married. A smart girl should learn to bow her head and accept her fate. Don’t you really like Li Jingran? Do you want to see him in a dilemma and be forced into a corner?”
