Chapter 196 - Summoned Back to Lis Residence (1/2)

Back in Li's Residence…

Zhao Wei and her daughter, Li Mu Chen stepped out of their vehicle and walked towards the mansion anxiously.

Earlier that morning, Zhao Wei received a phone call from her father-in-law, demanding her to bring her daughter to Li's Residence urgently.

Throughout their journey back to the mansion, Zhao Wei had tried to figure out the reason why they were both summoned back to Li's Residence unexpectedly. She had tried to raise the question to her daughter, but Li Mu Chen too could not figure out the reason why they were called back.

When the entered the door, Auntie Han, the housekeeper was the one who greeted them. ”The Old Master is waiting for both of you in his study,” she said.

Zhao Wei nodded. She took a step and paused when she noticed the nervous look on Auntie Han's face. ”Auntie Han, what's wrong?”

Auntie Han lowered her gaze. ”Madam, you better head into the Old Master's study room quickly.”

”What is it all about?” Zhao Wei asked. ”Auntie Han, do you know what is going on?”

”I don't know,” Auntie Han answered. ”But the Old Master has been like that after Young Master Mu Bai came to visit him.”

Li Mu Chen's eyes widened as she heard the news. Her hands started to tremble as her mind made a wild guess at what was waiting for both of them.

”Mu Bai is here as well?” Zhao Wei asked with a smile. Obviously, she had not noticed the uneasy look on her daughter's face. ”Mu Chen, come. Let's go.”

Without letting her daughter refuse, Zhao Wei had already pulled her daughter upstairs to Chairman Li's study room. She knocked at the door and announced her presence. Seconds later, Li Mu Bai appeared at the door with a somber look on his face.

Before Zhao Wei could say anything to her son, she could hear her father-in-law's voice, asking them to come into the room quickly.

Once the door was shut, Li Ren Xin grabbed at the nearest item to him, a fountain pen on his desk, and threw it to Li Mu Chen.

Fortunately, Li Mu Chen was quick enough to dodge it. However, this action also caused the elderly man's anger to rise.

”Father, what's wrong?” Zhao Wei asked with her eyes wide as she pulled her daughter into her embrace.

”You're asking me?” Li Ren Xin spat. ”Why don't you ask your daughter what she did?”

Zhao Wei tilted her head to look at her daughter, but Li Mu Chen remained trembling in her arms. Knowing that her daughter was not able to answer at the moment, Zhao Wei looked at her son for an answer. However, Li Mu Bai only looked away, not willing to answer.

Frustrated, Zhao Wei turned to her daughter again. ”Mu Chen, what did you do?”

Li Mu Chen raised her head and shook her head as she looked at her mother with her teary eyes.
