Chapter 736: Chapter 736: Going Abroad

Zhuang Rouhui rushed over in a frantic hurry, but this time the woman named Jiao Lei wasn’t there.

However, Li Ruyun and Li Ruyu were also nowhere to be seen.

"Dad, Mom, where are the kids?"

The two elders of the Li Family sat on the pear wood armchairs, leisurely sipping their tea.

"Don’t worry, they are doing just fine."

Zhuang Rouhui sensed something ominous from Ding Xiulan’s words.

"Where are they?"

Li Fuhong sneered with mockery, "Are you concerned about the people or the money?"

Zhuang Rouhui glared at him with fury, and Li Fuhong scoffed.

The two of them were bound to argue whenever they met, and Li Jiaguo and Ding Xiulan were too tired to mediate anymore.

"When we found the two kids, they didn’t want to come back."

Zhuang Rouhui panicked, "How can this be? They are still so young."

Ding Xiulan raised an eyebrow, "They are almost adults, not that young anymore, and we have to respect the children’s wishes."

Zhuang Rouhui’s expression stiffened, unclear what the Li Family meant.

"So where are they now?"

Li Jiaguo said gravely, "Under these circumstances, they can’t continue their schooling here, so we are preparing to send the kids abroad."

"To study abroad?" Zhuang Rouhui muttered to herself, a boundless panic rising in her heart.

Could the money still end up in her own hands?

It’s said that the money would be divided among the children, but Li Ruyun never listened to her, and Li Ruyu was always her little follower.

If they went abroad, wouldn’t she be powerless to reach them?

"I disagree!" Zhuang Rouhui said sharply. "It’s too dangerous overseas, I’m not at ease."

Ding Xiulan, holding her teacup with deliberation, said, "As a mother, it’s natural for you to worry, but the children are grown and have their own thoughts."

Li Jiaguo added, "Even these old bones of mine can still hold some weight on the scales while I’m alive to protect the kids, letting them go abroad for further study is also an option. Otherwise, once I’m gone, things might not be so easily said."

With things having reached this point, Zhuang Rouhui had no way to prevent the matters regarding going abroad.

But she was still resentful.

Zhuang Rouhui once thought of not letting Li Fuhong have an easy time, firmly disagreeing with the divorce.

But ever since the Li Family proposed dividing the money, her thoughts had changed.

At least this way, she could get more money than Li Fuhong and that vixen.

Seeing the current situation, she started to panic again.

Li Jiaguo and Ding Xiulan glanced at each other.

"The kids will be adults in two years, and we plan to find a reliable institution abroad to establish a trust fund for them; they can decide how to spend it once they’re of age."

Li Jiaguo followed up, "After all, they are the bloodline of our Li Family, we won’t treat them unfairly."

Indeed, the children belong to the Li Family, so what about herself?

She had given Li Fuhong her best years, but what had she received in return?

Facing Zhuang Rouhui’s resentfully charged countenance, Ding Xiulan smiled indifferently, "As for you and Fuhong, if you really can’t be together, it’s uncomfortable to bind yourselves to each other. Better to go your separate ways. I’ll have Fuhong compensate you."

The compensation from Li Fuhong and the shared wealth from the Li Family were worlds apart, Zhuang Rouhui couldn’t accept this.

"I’ve raised the kids up, if there’s no merit, there’s still hardship. Don’t think you can dismiss me so easily."

Zhuang Rouhui being able to say such a thing did not surprise Li Jiaguo and Ding Xiulan, and Li Fuhong wore an even colder sneer on his face.

"The children’s money is fixed, you surely wouldn’t fight with your own children over the inheritance, would you?" Ding Xiulan dropped her genial facade, looking coldly at Zhuang Rouhui, "Our money will only be left to our grandson and granddaughter. If you really can’t stand it, you can sue for divorce in court and see what the law decides."

Zhuang Rouhui was left speechless, her fingernails digging deep into her palms.

And there was Li Fuhong, fanning the flames beside her.

"Don’t you still have that daughter you threw away? If push comes to shove, find her, and maybe Mom and Dad might give you an extra share."
