Chapter 75 - 72 Grandma Li’s Birthday Banquet
"Finally understood! From now on, don’t associate with her anymore. This person isn’t your friend at all! What if she’s trying to harm you this time? What will you do if something happens to you?"
Li Si slowly nodded, flashing a sly smile: "But, Brother Leng, I didn’t come alone. I brought a friend with me – the girl who was signaling earlier!"
"That’s more like it. Remember, kid, Zhou Rou has bad intentions toward you. You need to stay alert! If something like this happens again, just call me directly. I’ll arrange for someone to handle it! If she really plans to harm you, and you’re unprepared – I can’t even imagine the consequences!" Leng Mochen patted the soft hair on top of Li Si’s head, a glint of cold light flashing in his eyes.
"Mm! I will!" Li Si’s eyes showed a trace of annoyance. How did Zhou Rou turn out like this? It didn’t seem like she had any deep-seated hatred toward her, did she?
A few days later, it was Grandma Li’s birthday. Her second uncle had reserved a private room at the Man Han Restaurant, and he’d called Li Si the day before. There was no question about attending, though she felt a bit strange. Why did they suddenly decide to celebrate at a hotel this year?
On the second floor in a private room, the entire Li Family was present by the time Li Si arrived, even Li Guozhi had taken leave from work to come.
"Ah, Li Si is here, quick, come sit. Come sit. Just now your grandma was still asking, ’Why hasn’t our Li Si arrived yet?’" Her second aunt Zhang Meihua stood up enthusiastically, taking the birthday cake from Li Si’s hands.
"Didn’t expect you’d be here so early. Didn’t Second Uncle say the party starts at 5 PM when he called yesterday? It’s not even 4:30 yet!" she said, having been delayed while picking up the cake.
