Chapter 782: Who said to get married
Chapter 782: Who said you want to get married?
The melodious sound of the violin suddenly sounded.
It was a live band, starting to play softly. In the banquet hall, the crystal chandelier lit up one after another, reflecting the smiling faces of the guests. The waiters shuttled among the crowd holding exquisite wooden trays. There was a peaceful and happy atmosphere everywhere. Atmosphere.
Li Lei helped Xia Ling off the stage.
Xiao Shaohui walked up and down on his short legs and muttered: "Daddy hates it, mommy doesn't want me." Wearing a small silver-white tuxedo, he followed them and walked off the stage.
Mr. Li bent down and tried to grab Shaohui's hand.
Little Shaohui stepped away as if he was frightened, raised his head, saw the old man's face clearly, and ran away quickly.
The old man’s brows furrowed unnoticeably.
In the banquet hall, the banquet was still going on. Li Lei took Xia Ling to find a secluded lounge to sit down and asked for some scented tea and snacks. "Eat something," he said. "Grandpa will definitely come to see us in a while. The troublesome things are still to come." He was not naive enough to think that the old man would compromise for the sake of his great-grandson.
Sure enough, after a while, Mr. Li followed Shao Hui and walked in.
Accompanying the old man, there was also Su Tang.
Li Lei was the first to speak: "Su Tang, please step aside."
Mr. Li's face darkened: "What are you avoiding? Su Tang is also a member of our Li family!"
Li Lei had long understood that the old man treated Su Tang as his granddaughter-in-law. However, considering that Su Tang risked his life to save himself and was tortured by others, he really couldn't bring himself to treat her as an outsider.
Xia Ling, on the other hand, looked unconcerned: "Keep it all, solve it as soon as possible and live in peace."
She wanted to see what other tricks the old man could come up with.
As soon as she said these words, Li Lei stopped chasing people away. This man is now a complete wife slave. Wife, oh no, future wife... everything he says is right.
He put Xiao Shaohui on his knees and peeled hazelnuts for him to eat.
Su Tang stared at their father and son blankly, with a sad look on his face.
Mr. Li asked: "Su Tang, what's wrong?"
Su Tang seemed to have woken up from a dream and forced a smile: "Grandpa, I'm fine." After she single-handedly rescued Li Lei from the virgin forest, she gained the qualification to call the old man "grandpa". She said: "Seeing their father and son being so affectionate, I thought of Xiao Rui. After all, he was not blessed..."
She stopped talking.
Mr. Li remembered that Li Lei had never hugged Li Rui like this before. Although Li Rui is not his biological son, he is still the son of his savior. Li Lei has gone too far! The old man was about to get angry, but when he saw the cute great-grandson in his grandson's arms, all his anger disappeared.
Little Shaohui concentrated on eating hazelnuts, his little cheeks bulging, he was so cute.
Mr. Li's voice softened: "Good boy, if you like to eat, Grandpa will prepare more for you."
Xiao Shaohui raised his head, looked at him warily, and shrank into Li Lei's arms.
Li Lei patted his head soothingly and said to the old man: "The children used to follow Xiao Ling. Suddenly there are so many more family members. It takes time to get used to it. When Xiao Ling and I get married, things will get better gradually." ”
"What?!" Mr. Li was angry. He recognized his great-grandson, but that didn't mean he recognized his grandson-in-law!
"What?" Xia Ling, who was drinking rose tea, also looked confused. "I said, get married." Li Lei smiled as if he didn't notice their strange attitudes, "Xiao Ling, you are already old, it would be great if you get married as soon as possible. Grandpa..."
"You're only a few years old!" Xia Ling glared at him fiercely. She didn't know how this person calculated it. Did he calculate her age in her previous life plus this life, or simply her age in this life? No matter what, she doesn't admit that she is old!
"Okay, okay, I'm already old," Li Lei said, "It's time to get married."
The veins on the old man's forehead were about to pop out. Seeing them showing off their affection, the old man slapped the table hard: "I don't agree with your marriage! Li Lei, I told you a long time ago, don't even think about marrying this life-threatening woman!"
“She is the mother of my child.” Li Lei looked directly at the old man.
"If you marry her, you won't even have children!" Mr. Li said angrily, turning to Xia Ling, "Miss Ye, why do you have to shamelessly marry into a family that doesn't welcome you? Our Li family can recognize your son. Give him a status, but if you think that mother is more valuable than son, you are too naive!"
Xia Ling was yelled at by the old man, so she yelled at Li Lei: "Did you hear that? I won't marry!" Who is more valuable? She is the majestic Phoenix of the Xia family. Anyone who has a relationship with her is lucky, right? !
Li Lei was very resentful and whispered: "We all agreed..."
“Who made the agreement with you?!” Xia Ling said angrily.
Li Lei felt aggrieved: "In the ward on the cruise ship, you said you wanted to marry me..."
Xia Ling was stunned for a moment, and then she remembered that there was still this problem.
Li Lei cautiously added: "Shao Hui can testify."
Xiao Shaohui nodded obligingly as he ate the hazelnuts peeled by his father.
Xia Ling felt that she was so mean-mouthed back then, so why did she take the initiative to ask for marriage? She glanced at Mr. Li and Su Tang, and saw disdain on their faces. She must have thought that she had used some scheming trick to try to marry Li Lei.
“Stop pretending, Miss Ye,” the old man said with a sneer, “The Li family will not marry you.”
Xia Ling yelled at Li Lei again: "I won't marry you!"
Li Lei: “You said you wanted to get married!”
Xiao Shaohui lowered his head and silently ate hazelnuts...
The room was in chaos.
Su Tang's sense of crisis became even stronger, and he said quietly: "What can be achieved by arguing like this? Old man, the top priority is to let Shao Hui recognize his ancestor and return to the clan. We can talk about other things later."
Her soft and elegant tone was like a breath of fresh air, calming down the noisy scene.
Mr. Li nodded, yes, the first priority is to get Shao Hui to call him Grandpa Zu. He looked at the child kindly again and said, "Little Shaohui, you weren't frightened by our quarrel, were you? How about going back to the Li family with Grandpa and Dad? Grandpa will prepare a very big house for you to live in."
Xiao Shaohui finally said: "I don't want to be locked up."
Mr. Li froze. This kid is really still remembering what happened in Paradise!
But, who told the child the truth? The kidnapping incident in Paradise was done by the old man under his command. If no one told the child who was behind the scenes, the child would not be able to associate it with him!
Thinking of this, Mr. Li looked at Xia Ling even more unkindly. It must be this woman!
Xia Ling sneered: "Some people have done bad things, so don't talk sweetly to a child. Do you really think that the child doesn't understand anything?" She did not say anything more outrageous because of Li Lei's face. .
This old man not only took the child to paradise, but now he also wants to separate the child from her!
