Chapter 77 - 74 Getting Caught in the Rain
Li Si still didn’t believe it. She shook her head firmly, "Without evidence, your words don’t count. I won’t believe what you say based on one side of the story! Since you’re saying my dad took me in from another place, where did he do it? I’ll go and find out. If it’s finally confirmed that I’m really not a child of the Li Family, I’ll return everything to you, not a single cent will be kept. You can rest assured about that!"
"My eldest son brought you back from Beijing. Go and find out. For now, don’t move into the house. And there are 20,000 yuan left by my eldest son—when the time comes, I hope you’ll keep your promise!" The old lady casually mentioned the name of the university Li Guoqiang attended and a rough address.
Seeing Li Si about to leave, her second aunt hurriedly grabbed her arm. The second uncle couldn’t hold back, "Mom, how can you be so muddle-headed! Just letting her leave like this! What if this kid runs off? Where will we go to ask her for the money? No way, at least leave the house keys behind!"
"Rest assured, these are the house keys my dad left behind. Before I figure out the truth, I won’t leave this city. Also, I’ll go to Beijing soon. Here, take the keys. After I’ve investigated everything, we’ll decide on how to handle things. Is that okay? Can you promise me that?"
Li Si took out the keys from her bag, avoiding Zhang Meihua’s outstretched hand, and resolutely placed them in Grandma Li’s hand. Her head felt like it was about to explode. A glimmer of clarity remained, hoping she wouldn’t sell the house first.
This house carried too many memories of her and her dad. If what the old lady said was true, then she indeed had no right to keep it!
"Alright, I’ll keep the keys here for now. When you return from Beijing, we’ll handle it together!" With Grandma Li’s assurance, Li Si walked out in a daze.
After Li Si left, the Li family surrounded Grandma Li, bombarding her with questions.
