Chapter 2385: Smart
Li Ruochu already understood what Hong Jin was implying. Her father did not want to hand over the family business to his stepmother and stepsister. Perhaps he had his own plans and knew what the mother and daughter were planning.
Hong Jin continued, “Mr. Li said that you can read the will when you return to the country. So Miss Li, don’t leave Estan for the time being. I might call you to the hospital to announce his will at any time.”
“Thank you, Uncle Hong.”
Before Hong Jin left, he asked for her contact number.
After visiting her father, Li Ruochu decided to come back tomorrow. Just as she was about to go back to look for Nuo Nuo and the others, she happened to meet two familiar faces.
“Is that Li Ruochu?”
Suddenly, she heard a man’s voice not far away. Li Ruochu looked up and saw a couple walking towards her.
Li Ruochu looked at them and realized who they were.
It turned out to be Qiu Yuzhe, the president of the universal cultural media, and Li Ruochu’s half-sister, Li Min’er.
The reason why Qiu Yuzhe could recognize Li Ruochu at first glance was because Qiu Yuzhe had pursued Li Ruochu when he was still in university. Later on, the Qiu family and the Li family almost had a marriage alliance, and the marriage partner was Li Ruochu.
But at that time, her stepsister Li Min’er liked Qiu Yuzhe, so she asked her mother to interfere and replaced herself as Qiu Yuzhe’s marriage partner.
Li Min’er had successfully married Qiu Yuzhe and became Mrs. Qiu. However, Qiu Yuzhe had always been indignant that he didn’t get to marry Li Ruochu.
“It really is Li Ruochu!” Qiu Yuzhe could not help but look her up and down. He realized that after not seeing her for a few years, Li Ruochu still looked like she was 18 years old. Her skin was so tender that it was dripping with water. She was extremely beautiful.
Li Min’er did not welcome her return that much. Seeing Li Ruochu appear, she immediately became wary.
Seeing that Li Ruochu had become even more beautiful than before, a trace of jealousy surfaced in her heart. She said sarcastically, “Oh, isn’t this my sister? She left for a few years. Why is she back now? Did she hear that my father was in critical condition and rushed back in a hurry to split the family assets?”
“I just came back to take a look.”
Li Ruochu said calmly.
Li Min’er snorted. “Who would believe that? If you had the guts to leave back then, don’t come back now! It’s not like the Li family can’t move without you.”
Li Ruochu did not say anything. Her gaze shifted from Li Min’er’s face to Qiu Yuzhe’s face. Li Min’er thought that she was thinking of hitting on Qiu Yuzhe again. She hugged Qiu Yuzhe’s arm and flaunted, “Sis, you might not know this, but our Yuzhe is now the CEO of the Universe Cultural Media. You didn’t like him back then, but you didn’t expect him to be so powerful now, right?”
Li Min’er was just showing off her taste.
“No matter what, she’s still my sister-in-law. It’s rare for her to come back. I’ll treat you later.”
Qiu Yuzhe deliberately showed the Rolex on his wrist to show off his taste and worth. He smiled as he said this and stared at Li Ruochu with a meaningful look in his eyes.
“What treat? We don’t owe her anything!”
Li Min’er was very unhappy with her husband’s attitude towards Li Ruochu. She said coldly, “You didn’t contact your family for so many years. You have neither humanity nor conscience at all! When the Li family was in trouble, our whole family was trying to think of a way and only you disappeared without a trace. To think that Dad was thinking of you all these years. Did you ask him whether he was dead or alive? Dad was about to die and you just returned so you can openly claim a share of the pie. You’re really smart!”
