Li's father left the living room immediately, leaving only Li Beiting and his mother in the now desolate space.
Li's mother walked over to Li Beiting, her gaze filled with tenderness, yet also laced with decisiveness.
"Beiting, remember, you are set to be engaged to Feifei."
After dropping this remark, Li Beiting's mother also left the living room.
Now, only Li Beiting was left, sitting on the sofa by himself…
Time ticked away, second by second, and with each passing moment, Li Beiting's agony intensified.
He was fully aware that there was trouble at the institute, fully aware that she was in danger, yet he couldn't even step out of the living room…
He knew his father's tactics all too well, the man who was once the cold-faced god of the underworld, who later retired and established his own company.
Although he had retired from that life, his father's intrinsic ruthless streak remained, and he was a man of his word.
