Chapter 16 - 16 16 Marriage Certificate

16: Chapter 16 Marriage Certificate 16: Chapter 16 Marriage Certificate Li Ruyan looked at Lin Fei with a strange expression.

After a long pause, she said, “You’re looking for Li Yunde?”

Lin Fei said, “To be honest, I came to Huadu for this arranged marriage because Mr.

Li Yunde wrote a letter to my grandfather.

According to the address on the letter, Mr.

Li Yunde lives in the Famous Mansion villa area.

Do you know Mr.

Li Yunde?”

Li Ruyan nodded and said, “I do.

What do you want from him?”

Secretly, she thought: Fool, Li Yunde is my grandfather, of course I know him.

Indeed, her grandfather was Li Yunde.

However, she didn’t reveal this truth to Lin Fei.

Lin Fei’s face lit up with joy: “So Ruyan, you know Mr.

Li Yunde.

That’s great!

Can you take me to see the old gentleman?”

Li Ruyan then asked, “Why do you want to see the old gentleman?”

“To be honest, I want to break off the engagement.” Lin Fei said truthfully about what he wanted to do.

“Break off the engagement?” Li Ruyan was a bit stunned: “Why?”

Lin Fei said, “I don’t want to get married yet, and besides, I’ve never even met Mr.

Li Yunde’s granddaughter.

How could there be any feelings or love between us?”

But inwardly, Li Ruyan thought: But you don’t know, you’ve already met Li Yunde’s granddaughter, and tonight you’re even her nominal ‘boyfriend.’

Is this considered fate?

Of course, this was only what Li Ruyan thought to herself, and she didn’t say it aloud.

“Lin Fei, Mr.

Li Yunde doesn’t often reside in the Famous Mansion villa area.

He travels far and wide frequently.

How about this—give me the marital letter, and I’ll return it to him for you.” Li Ruyan suggested after a moment’s thought.

Lin Fei had to say, “Since the old gentleman doesn’t often live here, then I’ll trouble Ruyan to pass the marital letter to the old gentleman.”

Lin Fei took out the marital letter from his bosom and placed it in Li Ruyan’s hand.

After all, he had decided to break off the engagement, and he also felt he could trust Li Ruyan.

Moreover, with Li Ruyan helping him withdraw the marital letter, he could also avoid embarrassment.

Li Ruyan put the marital letter into an LV bag on her seat and said to Lin Fei, “Don’t worry, I will hand the marital letter to Mr.

Li Yunde.”

Then, Li Ruyan started the car and drove away in a BMW from the Li family villa.

Meanwhile, in the Li family villa, in an ancient-style study filled with books, Mr.

Li sat in a chair, sipping a cup of oolong tea, calm and composed yet exuding an aura.

Li Shang and his wife sat on two chairs to the side, their expressions complex and full of concern.

Mr.

Li took a few sips of oolong tea, put the cup on the table, and then looked at Li Shang and his wife, saying, “Isn’t it time for you to tell me about our company’s situation?”

Li Shang showed a trace of panic on his face but quickly regained his composure, saying, “Dad, what’s wrong with the company?

It’s been running normally; there’s no problem.”

“Running normally?

Do you think I don’t know that you sold our company’s medicine to the Zhao family hospital at prices lower than what you sell to public hospitals?

These public hospitals have always used our medicine.

By doing this, do you realize you’ve already caused our company to lose credibility?

How can a company survive and continue to develop without credibility?” Mr.

Li said, sounding exasperated.

“Are you trying to ruin the entire company?

And the Zhao family obviously harbors ill intentions towards the Li family, and yet you still try to please Zhao Wenxuan.

You’re inviting a wolf into your house.”

It had been a long time since Li Shang and his wife had seen Mr.

Li so furious, and they were afraid.

Although the Li family’s company had been handed over to the couple, with Mr.

Li seldom intervening, they knew the final decision rested in his hands.

Now, with Mr.

Li angry, he must have secretly investigated and discovered that in order to maintain market share, the couple sold the medicine to the Zhao family at low prices.

“Dad, the reason I did so was out of necessity.

The pharmaceutical market is fiercely competitive, and our company’s market has been taken over by peers by over half.

If we don’t maintain the Zhao family hospital’s share, I’m afraid the Li family enterprise might face a survival crisis,” Li Shang said helplessly.

“Son, the Zhao family can’t help the Li family out of trouble.

Instead, they might control and devour the Li family.

The immediate priority is for the Li family’s medicine to expand into new markets to resolve the crisis,” Mr.

Li said with a heavy tone.

Li Shang, however, worriedly said, “But dad, it’s not easy for the Li family to open up new markets.”

Mr.

Li’s tone suddenly became severe: “No matter how difficult it is, we must expand, otherwise the Li family is on a dead-end path.

I’ll handle things here in Huadu, while you two go to other cities to expand the business.”

Li Shang and his wife, Yuan Yu, both had a change of expression, only then realizing that Mr.

Li intended to come out of retirement to save the struggling Li family enterprise.

But this also meant they were deprived of the company’s leadership.

The couple’s attempts to get close to the Zhao family would be impossible.

“But dad, at your age, managing the company might be too exhausting for you,” Madam Li said with concern and worry.

Mr.

Li, however, gave a cold smile: “What’s exhaustion?

Even if it costs me my life, I won’t let the Li family fall.”

Li Shang and his wife dared not say more.

The night was deep, and in a room on the third floor of Li Ruyan’s villa, a soft light was on.

Li Ruyan, dressed in a black silk nightgown, sat on the sofa, holding a letter.

It was the marital letter Lin Fei wanted her to pass to Li Yunde.

“I didn’t expect you to be the one grandpa wants me to marry.” Li Ruyan showed a faint, beautiful smile on her face.

She never imagined that Lin Fei was the one her grandfather wanted her to marry.

Recalling that day, it was because she was looking for Lin Fei’s grandfather that she ventured into the Kunlun Mountains.

Unexpectedly, when she was in danger, it was Lin Fei who saved her.

Even more incredible, he came to Huadu for a matchmaking, and it was she who brought him to Huadu, not knowing that the person he was to be matched with was herself.

What a coincidence such things exist in this world.

Li Ruyan’s lips curled, her smile growing wider.

“He wants to break off the engagement without even meeting the person.

Does he already have someone in his heart?” Li Ruyan furrowed her brows slightly and thought she must find a time to ask him.

For some reason, she felt a tinge of worry in her heart.

It was as if Lin Fei having someone in his heart was somehow related to her.

She put the letter she held into a drawer of a desk in the room and then closed the drawer.

“Lin Fei, I’ll hold onto this marital letter for you for now,” Li Ruyan whispered softly.

She returned to sit on the sofa, extended her jade-like hand, and elegantly held a half glass of red wine between her fingers, her red lips taking a sip from the glass.

Since three years ago, after her husband, who died in a car accident three days after their marriage, left her, she learned to drink.

In the quiet of the night, countless times she drank alone, trying to forget the heartache of losing her beloved.

But tonight, she wasn’t drunk, and the wine she drank didn’t taste bitter but rather fragrant.
