As for the reason why Xiao Li did not come home for two years, it was naturally because she could not face the fact that she would return to a home without her mother.
Of course, she also blamed Xiao Zhengnan a little. She felt that he hadn't taken good care of her mother, which resulted in her dying from her illness.
Of course, this was an ignorant thought in her previous life. Now she no longer blamed Xiao Zhengnan.
Right now, she was filled with regret. Regret that she hadn't come back to be with her father for the past two years. With her mother gone, she should have been closer to her father. But she wasn't…
And because she was not close to her father, she didn't even know her father was sick. If she'd come back before, she might have found out sooner.
The car slowly approached the Xiao family's house. Xiao Li called out softly, "Dad, we're home."
Xiao Zhengnan opened his eyes and paused for a moment before deciding to get out of the car.
Qin Xiao had already gotten out of the car and arrived at the back door. Seeing that Xiao Zhengnan was about to get out, he quickly opened the door and helped him out.
Xiao Li also got out of the car on the other side and came over to hold Xiao Zhengnan's other hand.
The couple helped Xiao Zhengnan to the house. The extremely warm scene was instantly broken by a discordant voice.
Chang Fang got out of a car and shouted, "Xiao Zhengnan, you sued your brother and Teng'er. What do you mean by that?
Are you black-hearted once you have money?
Tell me, if your elder brother hadn't brought you up, would you, Xiao Zhengnan, be where you are today?
Your brother and Teng'er only touched the company's money. Do you have to sue them?
This money belonged to the Xiao family. What was wrong with your brother using his family's money?
Who are you to sue them?"
When Xiao Li heard this, she said coldly, "Since you think that Xiao Zhengfang and the others are right, why did you come here to cause trouble?
Anyway, they've been arrested now. Whether they're wronged or not, public opinion will decide…"
Chang Fang jumped up and said, "Xiao Li, how can you be so disrespectful to your elders?
He's your uncle. You asked your husband to call the police to arrest them, and how dare you call him by his name…
Xiao Zhengnan, is this how you teach your daughter to be disrespectful to her elders?"
When Xiao Zhengnan heard the voice, he did not even look at Chang Fang and said coldly, "If the elder is benevolent, the junior will be filial.
I'm not asking Nini to respect elders like you guys.
I can't bring myself to say that."
As soon as Xiao Zhengnan finished speaking, another voice rang out. "Old Xiao is right!"
They looked in the direction of the voice. It was Director Chen who had arrived at the Xiao family residence.
Director Chen walked a few steps toward them and said to Chang Fang, "I realize that you're really thick-skinned. What do you mean by it's the Xiao family's money no matter what?
That's Xiao Zhengnan's money. What does it have to do with Xiao Zhengfang?
Does he have a small stake in the company?
Don't say a bit, he does not have any…
Old Xiao had let Xiao Zhengfang enter the company to earn some money on account of their brotherhood, but this did not mean that he could treat the company as his own.
Also, remember this. This Xiao Corporation doesn't belong to your Xiao family alone. I also have shares in it.
Did he, Xiao Zhengfang, get my permission to touch the company's money?
That's stealing without my permission…
Just wait and see! I'll make sure he stays in jail for a few more years…"
After saying that, Director Chen said to Xiao Zhengnan, "Don't waste your breath talking to such a person…
You don't look good. Let's go in…"
Xiao Zhengnan nodded and the few of them walked in. Chang Fang wanted to continue arguing, but she had only taken two steps when she was stopped and chased away.
In the living room, Xiao Zhengnan sat there in low spirits…
When he was at the company previously, he saw Xiao Zhengfang and his son being taken away. He couldn't bear it. After all, they were his family…
However, Chang Fang's words just now made his pity disappear.
They needed to have basic principles. They were atrocious and behaved like they owned the whole of Xiao Corporation.
Director Chen and Xiao Zhengnan sat opposite each other. "Old Xiao, you really don't look good…
What's wrong with your health?"
Xiao Zhengnan smiled and said, "Stomach cancer. Late stage."
Director Chen gasped when he heard that. "Then you should be warded in a hospital! If you need surgery, then do it. What's the point of staying at home?"
Xiao Zhengnan shook his head and chuckled. "It's too late. The cancer has already spread, surgery cannot be performed."
Director Chen sighed deeply when he heard this…
Seeing this, Xiao Zhengnan smiled and said, "What's with that expression? I'm the one who's sick now. Are you more depressed than me?
Although I am sick and about to die, my heart is at peace.
Xiao Li is already married. Ah Xiao is a good person. With him taking care of Xiao Li, I feel at ease.
The company's sh*tty rats are gone, and the future leader is also capable. There is no need to worry about the company's future.
Lan has been gone for two years and has waited for me for two years. It's time I go and keep her company."
Xiao Li, who was sitting at the side, silently got up and went to the kitchen…
Tears slid down her cheeks the moment she entered the kitchen…
Qin Xiao followed closely behind and reached out to wipe the tears off her face…
Xiao Li looked up at Qin Xiao and asked seriously, "Do you really think there exists such affection between two persons that they wish to live and die together?
Dad is clearly very sick now, but every time he mentions that he can go and keep Mom company, his tone makes it seem like he is not dying but is really going to reunite with Mom.
Can two people's feelings really go that deep?"
Xiao Li stared at Qin Xiao after asking. Actually, she was asking Qin Xiao indirectly.
Regarding Qin Xiao choosing to die in the sea of fire with her in her previous life, other than being shocked, Xiao Li was also a little puzzled. How could Qin Xiao's feelings for her be so deep that he would even die with her…
Xiao Li, who had never been in a relationship in her life, did not understand such feelings.
After transmigrating back to this life, she married Qin Xiao. It was not that Xiao Li loved Qin Xiao very much, but she just felt that she should marry him.
Hearing this, Qin Xiao slowly placed his wandering hand on Xiao Li's shoulder and raised her chin with his other hand so that she could meet his eyes.
In the depths of Qin Xiao's eyes were all the emotions he had felt in the past few years. He opened his lips and said extremely seriously, "Yes!"
With that single word, he kissed her.
The kiss was a mere peck on the lips before they parted.
However, Xiao Li was able to feel Qin Xiao's special care and his deep love from this kiss…
In the blink of an eye, a month had passed. Xiao Zhengfang and his son were punished and had already been imprisoned for a period of time.
As for how Xiao Yan and the others were doing now? Xiao Li did not care. She only knew that Chang Fang had sold everything at home to make up for Xiao Zhengfang and his son's embezzlement…
