Chapter 114: Chapter 111 Are You Afraid of a Beating?
Li Si glared at her fiercely, utterly disbelieving that after she had done everything necessary, the other party could still insult her so brazenly.
"Let go of me! Beijing isn’t your house—I come and go as I please! No one can control me!" She forcefully broke free from her grip.
"Also, let me warn you: I’ve never intended to ruin her current life! But you—you did countless disgraceful things to destroy my dad and her. Aren’t you afraid of karma?" She jabbed her finger at her opponent. "Even if karma doesn’t catch up to you, it’ll catch up to your daughter! Don’t believe me? Let’s wait and see!"
Tian Yaru snapped with rage, lunging forward in an attempt to grab her fair face, cursing crudely all the while: "You shameless little b*tch! How dare you speak to me like this! Let me tell you something—so long as I’m around, don’t even dream about setting foot in the Tian Family home. Hurry up and get back to North City, where you belong with those money-grubbing poor relatives of yours!
And what disgraceful things have I done, huh? That’s my sister, and I’ll never let her live with that pauper dad of yours! Especially after meeting your grandmother—I’m even more certain I made the right decision. With such a family, there’ll be no good fortune! Today, you better get out of Beijing immediately!"
"Then you’re an old **, and Ye Duowei is an even bigger **! Your whole family is **-raised!" Li Si, not lacking strength, grabbed both her hands and pushed her back hard. How dare she openly humiliate her like this? Was she supposed to tolerate it? So what if she was Tian Yaruo’s older sister—in Li Si’s eyes, they were nothing but strangers.
Tian Yaru slammed into the wall behind her with great force, her eyes bulging in pain and fury.
"I’ll fight you to the death!" She never thought the girl would actually lay hands on her.
Li Si watched Tian Yaru thrashing about wildly, her hair disheveled, and swiftly stepped forward, pressing her arm against her neck to force her backward. With a cold smile, she said, "What do you think about me beating the crap out of you right here?"
She had disliked her for a long time, and now was the perfect chance to let off some steam for herself and her father.
Tian Yaru ended up pinned against the wall again, her back aching as fear flashed in her eyes. Since when had this meek little bunny turned so fierce? The hatred in Li Si’s eyes made her shiver inwardly. "I-I’m your elder! How dare you do this to me? It’s unfilial!"
"Oh? Elder? Do you think you deserve it?" Li Si glared at her with deliberate venom. "Tell me, how should I deal with you? Hmm?"
She had already gone above and beyond, yet the other party still dared treat her this way. Truly, they thought she was a sickly cat because the tiger hadn’t bared its claws! What was so great about the Tian Family that she should cling to them?
Tian Yaru was genuinely frightened now. She desperately wished someone would appear to witness the scene and help her.
Li Si coldly stared at her increasingly panicked expression. "Or should I give that Yan-man a call and pass along the things you’ve been saying? How about that?"
Tian Yaru was utterly flustered. She disliked Li Si inherently, but her intentions had always been for her sister’s sake. How could she let her call Old Yan? That would completely expose everything! Could the Yan Family swallow such an insult easily?
But then she reconsidered and calmed herself. After all, her sister was still her mother—it wasn’t likely she’d actually make the call. If she were truly that heartless, she wouldn’t have come to donate bone marrow for Kesong!
"Go ahead if you’ve got the guts! She’ll be here soon anyway!" She still managed to hold her neck up while speaking, though her confidence was clearly wavering.
Li Si instinctively increased the force on her arm when she heard that. "You’re saying she’s coming here? Isn’t she at the hospital taking care of someone?"
Tian Yaru’s face turned red, and she cautiously glanced at her. "Today is Weiwei’s birthday party. She’s so fond of Weiwei; how could she not be here?"
"Fine, then I’ll ask her face-to-face!" Li Si feigned composure, but inside, waves of emotion surged. She actually had time to attend some birthday party, yet couldn’t spare a moment to give her even a single phone call!
Was she really that busy? Not even half a minute or a minute to spare? When she had been discharged from the hospital, she had lingered in the ward, obviously waiting for her to show up.
But what was she doing? Abandoning her sick child just to attend her niece’s birthday party, yet unwilling to show even a sliver of care for her?
So what about her? What did she count as? Li Si forced herself to suppress the sourness bubbling up inside. What was there to be bitter about? She had made it this far without her all these years; having her or not made no difference! It truly didn’t matter to her!
But why, then, did it hurt a little inside? No wonder Big Brother called her foolish! Foolish to the point of being undeserving of pity! To think she still harbored thoughts like, if things didn’t work out, she’d find a chance to make that brat drink some river water—if that wasn’t stupidity, what was it?
Tian Yaru felt her breath growing labored and pleaded, "Li Si, I can’t breathe! Let go, please?"
Li Si snapped back to reality and loosened her grip a bit, but still didn’t fully release her. She continued coldly, "This is my final warning—don’t provoke me again. Otherwise, I have a violent streak, and it won’t just end with a beating next time! Get out!"
Tian Yaru nodded frantically. She just wanted to leave this lunatic as quickly as possible. Yes, to her, Li Si now seemed no different from a madwoman.
The moment Li Si let go, she crouched forward, clutching her throat and coughing, but didn’t stop running as she escaped.
Li Si adjusted her hair, vigorously slapped her pale face it to make it look slightly rosier, and forced a smile at the mirror. Yet to her, that smile still carried deep bitterness.
In the private room, Leng Mochen had been checking his watch frequently. Long Wu couldn’t resist teasing him: "Leng Er, why do I feel like you’re acting like a dad worrying about his daughter who’s just been to the bathroom a little longer than usual? Is it that serious?"
Leng Mochen was about to reply when the room door opened and Li Si walked in.
"Just now, the restroom was packed! Brother, Brother Long, the dishes are all served—why haven’t you started eating yet?" Li Si lowered her head, a small smile on her lips, avoiding eye contact with Leng Mochen for fear he might notice something amiss.
"We were waiting for you! Alright, Sis, all of these dishes were ordered just for you, our star! Dig in!"
Li Si buried her head and started eating enthusiastically, though each bite tasted like wax in her mouth, her previous appetite completely gone.
Leng Mochen took a curious glance at Li Si. "Young lady, what’s wrong with you?"
Li Si shook her head, swallowing her food. "I’m fine! Just hungry! You two eat as well!"
Long Wu, being casual, continued to eat elegantly. Seeing no further oddities in her behavior, Leng Mochen’s worries abated.
Li Si quietly let out a breath of relief.
After the meal, Leng Mochen turned down Long Wu’s suggestion to take Li Si out for some fun and instead insisted that she go home and rest. Li Si was glad to comply and followed him obediently.
Just as they exited the revolving doors of the hotel, Li Si noticed Ye Duowei clinging affectionately to Yin Xian’s arm as they prepared to enter. (To be continued.
