Chapter 98 - I’m More Upset Than Anyone Over Nian Nian’s Death (2/2)

But who would’ve expected that Li Haoran would look upset over it?

His eyes were still red, and he turned to glare at Li Haobin upon hearing him. “Third Bro, it’s my daughter who’s passed away. I haven’t even seen her body yet, what are you thinking?”

Li Haobin scoffed. “Don’t give me that fatherly crap. Who doesn’t know that you only go out as a family of three? Your biological daughter doesn’t even get a mouthful of the food you eat! Everyone knows this.”

“Li Haobin, speak with your conscience!” Li Haoran’s expression was extremely dark now. “Nian Nian was preparing for her exams. I didn’t take her out because I wanted to give her time to revise. I’m more upset than anyone over her death!”

“Haha… sadness isn’t expressed in words. Nian Nian is your biological daughter. She’s dead and her corpse is missing, and you’re telling me that however you’re acting now shows that you’re sad?”

Li Haoran was fuming, but before he could speak, Li Haobin went on, “Before Nian Nian came back, this contract could’ve gone to either of our families. And then Nian Nian returned, and soon after, something like this happened to her. Who knows if you killed her on purpose so that Xueqing could marry Donglin?”

Li Xueqing shivered upon hearing what Li Haobin said.

It wasn’t very obvious, but Li Ying saw it.

“Xueqing, are you cold? Why are you shivering?”

Li Xueqing felt even more conscious now that she’d pointed it out.

“The water spilled all over my clothes. What do you think?”

“Get a change of clothes,” Fang Zhili said. “I’m wearing two pieces, anyway. Let’s go to the washroom, I’ll hand you one.”

Li Xueqing hurriedly followed Fang Zhili to the washroom.

Fang Zhili cautiously typed on her cell phone: Li Ying is at the door!

Then added: In any case, you have no idea what happened. Nian Nian is dead, our family is very sad, and that’s that. When you go out later, pretend to tear up a little bit, understand?

Li Xueqing took the cell phone and read the words. She added: I’m scared they’ll see through me.

Fang Zhili glared at her and typed: Your uncle is trying to fight for Li Ying. You’d better do your best and not lose to her!
