Chapter 220 - Whatever happened to teaching Gu Shishi a lesson? (2)

It had only been a few days before there were rumors online that Luo Pingtings father had been invited to go to have some tea and he had been gone for three days.

Li Yiru frowned and finally couldn't help but asked over dinner.

Dad, did something really happen to the Luos? I just ran into Pingting at a beauty parlour a few days ago. Eh, Wang-ma, I want a bowl of bird nest soup as well.

As she was talking, she noticed that only the bowl in front of her was empty.

Wang-magave her an awkward smile.

Li Chengzheng waved his hand and said, You didnt even pay for the meals. You are lucky that we even let you have some vegetables. Bird nest soup? Have you seen any hotels that hand out free bird nest soups?

Li Yiru,

It pained Mrs. Li to see that but she also dared not start a fight with Li Chengzheng.

She quickly shoved a piece of meat into her daughters bowl and changed the subject as the peacemaker between the two.

I saw Mother Luo just yesterday. Aye, without her mainstay, she seemed to have aged over ten years all of a sudden.

OH?

Li Yiru had forgotten about her bird nest soup

All of the Luos girls were pretty and Aunty Luo had always maintained herself well. She looked to be in her thirties or forties at most.

Did Uncle Luo really get locked up?

Li Chengzheng also had a long face.

He put down his chopsticks.

I really dont know what Lao Luo was thinking. This is no joking matter. Why would he

He shook his head and did not carry on.

Li Yirus eyes widened.

He really evaded taxes?

With rumors like that, no wonder all of their clients wanted to stop working with them.

Too much negative publicity would also taint their partners reputation.

And if the person in question was arrested, then the tree had fallen.

Chengzhen.

Sitting at the head of household seat, Old Mr. Li with his head full of white hair said out of the blue.

When you went to apologize to the Gus daughter last time, did they accept your apology?

Old Mr. Li changed the subject abruptly.

Li Chengzheng wasnt a stupid person. His face changed colors immediately.

Dad, you mean HB overseas had something to do with this?

He didnt even mention Gu Shishi but went straight to the person who might be backing her.

The Li was put in their place last time.

In the last round of bids, they had to give up 10% profit in order to maintain their relationship with HB.

Thinking about that pained Li Chengzheng.

His youngest daughters one glass of wine and they had to go over to their place to apologize and the Lis had to give up great profit to make up to them. The price that they had to pay was astronomical.

The Luos had been the way that they were for a long time now.

This isnt even an investigation at the district level, but straight from the city level. The few big clients of them that canceled their partnership are old acquaintances of mine, said Old Mr. Li as he narrowed his cloudy but energized eyes.

It was said that they will have some businesses with HBs overseas market next year.

OH!!!

Li Yirus mouth dropped open but she wasnt able to make a sound.

Never mind that she didnt say anything. Li Chengzheng and Old Mr. Li both looked over at her sharply.

Are you hanging out with Pingting all the time?

Li Yiru gulped.

In the past, yes.

She had been staying away from her a bit as of late as she was being punished.

Thats also because she had bullied Gu Shishi?

Li Yiru found that a difficult pill to swallow.

With the size of the Luos empire, they were brought down over a girl who had returned to her family?

A peasant girl that Luo Pingting didnt even care for?

Ruru, quickly, tell your grandfather what else have you done to Gu Shishi?

Mother Li was worried now.

Li Yiru turned pale and told them everything from beginning to end.

As he listened to her, different emotions went through Li Chengzhengs face.

All the way until after dinner and Li Yiru had returned to her room before Li Chengzheng looked at Old Mr. Li both skeptically and solemnly and asked, Dad, do you really think that what happened to the Luos have to do with the Gus child? You think she is that powerful?
