C36 The Zhao Family Has Arrived

​

Leng Fan turned around and walked back the same way he came. He didn't want to talk to them anymore, so he didn't hesitate at all.

Li Yan was a bit upset. As she watched Leng Fan leave, she felt like a bad guy. However, she had no choice but to do this. For the sake of the entire Li family, she didn't dare to gamble. She could only watch as he left.

"Brother, why do I feel like it's not because he saved Little Yan, but because of some other reason. As for why, I don't know, but I feel weird inside." Li Bi looked at Leng Fan's back and had an indescribable feeling in her heart.

Li Hao's serious face also revealed a complicated expression, but he didn't intend to admit it. He replied, "Don't think too much into it, this person's background is unknown, our Lee family can't let such an uncertain factor put the whole family in a difficult situation. Everything has to be done for the benefit of the family."

Li Bi nodded. Right now, everyone in the Li Family could only defend the general situation. They didn't dare to have any personal feelings towards anyone.

"It's time to eat. Why are all of you standing here? Why aren't you coming in?" Li Yan's Mother Yuan Qinggrong shouted at them from the entrance of the small courtyard.

Li Yan turned around, Li Hao turned around, Li Bi turned around, and Leng Fan also turned around after hearing the voice.

"Little bastard, come back and eat. If you don't come back now, then don't come back …" A scene appeared in Leng Fan's mind. When he was 5 years old, his mother would always call him to dinner when it was time to go home.

Li Yan replied, "Mom, you're back."

Li Yan turned around to go back while Li Hao followed behind. When Li Bi was about to follow, she noticed Leng Fan, who was not far away, was looking in Yuan Qingrong's direction. His eyes were full of concentration.

"Big brother, it's not too late to let him eat a meal before leaving. After all, he did save Little Yan before, and not letting him eat a single meal is not the style of our Li Family." Li Bi asked Li Hao.

Li Hao thought about it for a moment, then took a glance at the stunned Leng Fan. His heart suddenly softened as he replied, "We won't do it the next time. Let him do it!"

When Li Bi heard that, she immediately ran over to Leng Fan's side.

"Little brother, come eat with us first. Since you're here, how can I let you leave without eating? Hurry up and come with me." Li Bi didn't wait for Leng Fan to reply and just pulled Leng Fan's hand and left. Surprisingly, Leng Fan didn't have any intention of resisting, no matter how Li Bi pulled him.

Not long after, Li Hao and Li Yan walked into their own small courtyard one after the other. Li Bi pulled Leng Fan in by the wrist and then saw a table of delicacies in the middle of the small courtyard.

"Since you're here, then sit down and eat. The Li Family's food is comparable to the food in those five-star hotels." Li Hao said to Leng Fan lightly.

When Li Yan saw Leng Fan, she politely invited him, "Sit here!"

Leng Fan was pushed onto the stool by Li Bi.

Li Bi smiled at Li Yan and said, "I finally understand a little about this brat. He's just shy. Sorry about that."

Leng Fan: "..."

After Yuan Qingrong served the last dish, she let them all sit down.

Leng Fan looked at the people at the table. They were all his family, but he couldn't recognize them. The next moment, he stared at the dish, 'Red Braised Elbow', on the table. It was his favorite dish when he was young.

"Don't just watch, quickly eat it. This was made by Li Yan's mother herself. You're so lucky." Li Bi smiled.

Leng Fan nodded. Actually, he already couldn't wait to eat his favorite Red Braised Elbow after ten years. After a mouthful of fat and oily meat entered his mouth, it melted like snow. A strong fragrance stimulated his sense of taste as well as his deep longing.

"Is it delicious?" Li Bi asked.

Leng Fan nodded, and a faint smile appeared on his face.

"Little Yan, look, he's smiling." Li Bi immediately shouted at Li Yan.

Li Yan raised her head and saw Leng Fan's smile. From the moment they met yesterday, Leng Fan's expression was cold, giving off the feeling that he was a thousand miles away. Leng Fan's smile was the first time she saw him smile since she knew him.

"So you actually know how to laugh. I even thought you didn't know how to laugh." Li Yan was quite happy to see Leng Fan's smile.

Li Bi continued, "It seems that our little brother is a glutton, and only eating makes him happy."

Leng Fan: "..."

When Li Yan's mother heard this, she was naturally happy and said to Leng Fan, "You are Yan'er's savior, so eat more. Li Yan's mother was obviously happy and said to Leng Fan," You are Yan'er's savior, so eat more.

"Come often?" Leng Fan said to himself dejectedly.

Li Yan also said, "That's right. You can come often, but that's on the premise that our Lee family can survive this crisis."

Leng Fan: "..."

When Li Yan's mother Yuan Qingrong heard what Li Yan said, her expression turned into one of melancholy. She said, "That's right. I don't know if we'll be able to safely pass through this time."

Li Hao held her hand and said confidently, "Don't worry, it will definitely be possible. We are completely prepared and waiting for the people from the Zhao Family to come. We will definitely make sure that they won't be able to come back."

Yuan Qingrong nodded.

The time it took to eat a meal wasn't long, but Leng Fan had waited for more than ten years.

As they neared the end of their journey, a loud piercing sound came from the sky. Following that, a voice descended from the sky and smashed onto their heads …

"Child of the Li Clan, this old man has come. Today is the day you die, haha …." "Hurry up and come out to die."

Li Hao suddenly stood up from the stool and shouted in panic, "Zhao Family Patriarch is here!"

Aside from Leng Fan, everyone else at the table had a bad look on their faces. They all stood up and looked outside. They knew that the Zhao family would come sooner or later, so they had already made mental preparations. However, when that moment truly arrived, they discovered that they were actually not as calm as they thought.

"Dad of the child, be careful." Yuan Qingrong didn't stop Li Hao, she just told him to be careful.

Li Hao nodded and replied, "Motherf * cker, I say, if we can't stop the Zhao Family, leave through the secret passage that I told you. Take your daughter with you and don't appear in public again for the rest of your life."

Yuan Qingrong couldn't help but cry and replied, "I know, go ahead! I said if you didn't come back, help me deliver a message to Li Er that Mom had let him down! "

"Peng", the cup in Leng Fan's hand shattered. Because the Li Er Yuan Qingrong that Yuan Qingrong spoke of was him. Sixteen years ago, his name was Li Li.

Li Hao did not leave the broken cup as he instructed Li Yan, "Xiao Yan, take good care of your mother."

After saying this, Li Hao looked at Leng Fan and saw him sitting on a stool, indifferent to what was happening outside. He shook his head and finally said to Li Bi, "Let's go. If the Lee family fails to survive this disaster, we will be siblings in the next life."

Li Bi took a deep breath as tears welled up in her eyes. Nodding, she forced a smile and said, "In my next life, I'll be an older sister and you'll be my younger brother."

The two siblings, Li Hao and Li Bi, left and ran towards Patriarch Li Daodong's side. Li Yan, Li Yan, Mother Yuan Qinggrong, and Leng Fan were the only ones left in the room.

Li Yan looked at Leng Fan and asked after a long while, "I, Big Grandpa, said you might be a spy for the Zhao Family. Can you tell me what you are now?"

He was very surprised by Li Yan's words, but after thinking about it, he did not think much of it. After all, the Lee family was in dire straits right now, so he replied, "Don't worry, I have nothing to do with the Zhao family."

After Li Yan heard this, she said, "Thank you. I shouldn't have doubted you, but I have no way to change the way people talk about you."

Leng Fan replied, "It's alright, I'm already used to it."

Li Yan: "…"

Yuan Qingrong pulled Li Yan's hand, her face finally revealing a panicked expression, she said, "Xiao Yan, tell me something happened to your father, what should we do?"

What could Li Yan do? She was only a seventh-grade power, if she was a fifth-grade power, then she could have a good fight with the Zhao Family. She was now regretting her stubbornness in the past.

"Mom, it's alright. Our Li family has a thousand years of history, and our family's resources cannot be compared to the Zhao family's. We can definitely resolve this crisis." Li Yan replied confidently.

At this moment, Leng Fan was still thinking about the word 'Li Er' that Yuan Qingrong had mentioned just now. He thought that they had already forgotten about him and that child from more than ten years ago.

"Leng Fan, I'm sorry this time. Originally, I wanted to properly entertain you, but instead, you're in a crisis for our family. When the Zhao family comes in, you might be affected." Li Yan said to Leng Fan.

Leng Fan said, "I'll be fine."

"Boom …" Another loud sound came from the front.

Li Yan and the others turned pale with fright.

At this moment, Leng Fan spread out his Spiritual Sense.

"Xiao Yan, I'm very worried about your dad, I want to go take a look, is that okay?" Yuan Qingrong suddenly asked.

Li Yan replied, "But Dad said that he won't let us pass, and he even said that if …" At this point, her voice became mute because she didn't dare to say the rest.

Yuan Qingrong pulled Li Yan's hand and said, "Little Yan, Mom isn't afraid of death. Your brother has already gone. If your dad goes again, Mom will die. Let Mom go watch your dad …"

Li Yan looked at her mother's teary eyes and immediately made her decision. "Mom, since we are one family, we will die together. At worst, we can just go to the Underworld to apologize to our younger brother."

Yuan Qingrong nodded and smiled. "Alright, let's die together. If we die together, we can go see your brother and reunite."

This was how the mother and daughter decided. When Leng Fan heard their words, his eyes immediately became moist.
