Chapter 209: Chapter 209: Aspiring to Gain Advantage Through One’s Child

"The Fu Family needs an explanation from us—you’re the eldest and Fu Xingzhou’s close friend, so you make the decision."

Mr. Li said with a stern expression.

Li Xiuze pinched the bridge of his nose, "In terms of business, it’s going to cost us a lot this time. As for Wanru, I’ve already arranged a flight for her. She’ll leave for Italy tonight and won’t be allowed to return without my permission."

"I won’t go to Italy." As soon as Li Wanru heard this, her pupils contracted sharply, "I’d rather die than go to Italy."

In Hong Kong, she was the princess of the Li Family, adored by many.

But in Italy, apart from some money, she would be nothing.

She relished the aura of being the center of attention, always surrounded by a crowd. How could she resign herself to being just an ordinary person?

"You don’t get a say in this matter," Li Xiuze’s gaze turned icy. "You might have had a chance to reconcile for involving Fu Xingzhou, but you shouldn’t have targeted Ye Yan."

"She’s just a despicable woman, what right does she have to compare with me?"

Smack!

A slap landed on Li Wanru’s face.

She fell to the floor immediately, her head buzzing.

She looked at Li Xiuze in disbelief—her brother, who always pampered her, had struck her so hard.

Hatred filled Li Wanru’s eyes.

But there was no fear.

"Li Wanru, if you talk like that again, you might as well stay in Italy forever and never return. Otherwise, the Li Family will sooner or later be dragged down to death by you."

Seeing that she showed no remorse, Li Xiuze felt both angry and distressed.

Second Mrs. Li, Li Wanru’s mother, felt pity, "Xiuze, you’ve already hit and scolded her, and Wanru knows her mistake now. Let her off just this once."

"Second Aunt, you don’t know the trouble she’s caused this time. It took a lot of face for me to beg the Fu Family to let this slide," Li Xiuze sighed. "It’s settled then, Li Wanru will go abroad immediately. Once abroad, I’ll have someone take away her ID and bank cards. Without my permission, just stay there and reflect on your mistakes."

At this point, Mr. Li finally spoke up, "Xiuze, isn’t the punishment for Wanru a bit too severe?"

He was very reluctant to send his only granddaughter to Italy.

Who knew when he would see her next?

"Grandpa, you think my punishment is harsh now, but if Fu Xingzhou decides to act himself, you might never see Wanru again in your lifetime."

"Is the Fu Family really able to cover the sky with one hand?" Mr. Fu grew angry.

"If our Li Family really had the strength to confront the Fu Family, we wouldn’t have needed to groom her for a marriage alliance since she was little," Li Xiuze admitted reluctantly. "If we hadn’t always demanded her to meet the standards of a Fu Family daughter-in-law, she wouldn’t have become so obstinate. Sending her abroad now, before she causes a major disaster, is the best option."

Mr. Li wanted to say something else but realized this situation was a result of his own past actions, and he could only sigh.

"So, that’s settled then. Second Uncle, Second Aunt, any objections?"

The Li Family knew well that if Li Xiuze hadn’t been mediating, the situation wouldn’t have been resolved so lightly.

Fu Xingzhou was a man who sought retribution for every grievance, and no one dared cross him in Hong Kong.

He’d given Li Xiuze a bit of face, allowing the Li Family to handle this matter personally.

Everyone agreed with Li Xiuze’s decision.

It was the best way to minimize the losses.

Although Li Wanru was resentful, she couldn’t defy her family’s decision and knew escaping was impossible.

Li Wanru packed her bags, and the person arranged by Li Xiuze took her to the car.

Second Mrs. Li cried, wanting to see her off at the airport. Li Xiuze agreed.

After all, they didn’t know when they would meet again, and Second Mrs. Li’s maternal love was understandable.

In the car, Li Wanru suddenly saw a cell phone thrown in the corner.

The bodyguard had searched it from Ye Yan’s body and handed it back to her, she casually threw it on the back seat without paying attention.

At this moment, the phone was constantly ringing.

Li Wanru picked it up and pressed answer.

"Miss Ye, the prenatal test you had done on the fetus has come back. The fetus is developing normally, but you are too thin. You need to nourish yourself more so that you can lessen the pain during childbirth."

"Everything is normal?"

"Yes," the doctor laughed on the other end, "I have already scheduled your Down syndrome screening for the 28th of this month."

"Miss Ye? Miss Ye, are you listening?"

Li Wanru hung up the phone.

"Wanru, what’s wrong?" Second Mrs. Li asked caringly, "Your complexion is so poor? Don’t worry, mom and dad will definitely convince your big brother to bring you back home soon."

Li Wanru acted as if she hadn’t heard, her teeth clenching loudly, her eyes emitting a venomous glare, "That bitch, aiming to secure her status through her child."

"Wanru, what are you saying?"

"That woman of Fu Xingzhou’s is pregnant," Li Wanru stared at Second Mrs. Li, her fierce expression frightening Second Mrs. Li into shrinking back.

"Mom, we absolutely cannot let her give birth to the child, otherwise, I will never be able to marry into the Fu Family."

Fu Xingzhou now wouldn’t even give her a glance, if Ye Yan were to bear his child, all his devotion would belong to Ye Yan.

"Mom doesn’t know what you are talking about," Second Mrs. Li panicked.

"Forget it," Li Wanru smiled, "Mom, I’ll handle it, you don’t need to worry."

Her mom, always indecisive, suppressed by her elder sister-in-law within the Li Family, doesn’t even dare to speak up, always hiding behind her husband.

But what she didn’t know, her beloved father had long been keeping mistresses.

Ridiculous!

After arriving at the airport, Li Wanru bid farewell to Second Mrs. Li.

After entering the VIP lounge with her ticket, she finally called her bodyguard.

"I want the child in Ye Yan’s belly dead, it would be best if both mother and child die together. But after doing this, you might not survive either, Fu Xingzhou will soon trace it back to you."

Without hesitation, the bodyguard responded, "Miss, don’t worry, I will not implicate you, I will execute everything flawlessly."

Ye Yan’s suitcase had been left at the hotel entrance.

The staff had carefully stored it.

After collecting her suitcase, Ye Yan had a simple char siu meal.

The bodyguard assigned to her by Fu Xingzhou stayed by her side, acting like a walking surveillance camera.

After they got into the car, the bodyguard drove, and Ye Yan sat in the back.

She had a surgery scheduled for tomorrow, so today she had to rush back to Ao City.

Not long after getting into the car, Ye Yan felt drowsy,

Pregnant women are more prone to sleepiness and exhaustion.

Ye Yan had been feeling this increasingly.

Seeing she seemed to have fallen asleep, the bodyguard turned the music in the car to its lowest volume and turned the air conditioning up a bit.

The car drove smoothly, and Ye Yan slept peacefully.

As the car reached the Hong Kong-Macau Bridge, the traffic began to thicken.

The bodyguard dare not slack off, gripping the steering wheel cautiously.

Meanwhile, not far away, a van was speeding towards them.
