Chapter 664: Chapter 664: Truly Hard to Kill

Li Yehan pulled Nan Qiao into his embrace, feeling uneasy.

“Qiaoqiao, Grandpa will definitely be fine, he’s protected by his good fortune.”

The person in his arms responded with a muffled “mm,” and Li Yehan felt uneasy.

After a while, Nan Qiao calmed down and withdrew from Li Yehan’s embrace.

Li Yehan picked up a water cup, bringing it to Nan Qiao’s mouth to help her hydrate.

Nan Qiao drank half a cup of chrysanthemum tea, clearing heat and relieving internal fire.

“I’ll go see Grandpa again,” Nan Qiao stood up, and Li Yehan supported her.

The two walked outside together.

Outside the intensive care unit, through the glass, everyone could see Old Mr. Li’s condition.

Old Mr. Li lay on the bed, tubes connected to him, linked to medical devices.

Li Tianhong felt uneasy. He used to always clash with Old Mr. Li, but now seeing his father lying unable to move, recalling the past, he felt like a total jerk.

Li Tianhong thought of something and questioned abruptly, “Tianyi, when did your family’s balcony start having flower pots? Last time I visited, I didn’t see any on your balcony!”

Upon hearing this, everyone’s gaze shifted to Li Tianyi.

Li Tianyi became the focus of everyone’s attention, froze for a few seconds, then quickly regained his senses.

“We didn’t have flower pots before. Recently, the servants put them outside to catch some sun and move them back in at night. The servants manage the flower pots; I’m not sure about the specifics.” Li Tianyi explained helplessly, feeling troubled.

At this moment, words spoken wouldn’t be lies.

Li Tianhong wanted to question further but ended up sighing, unsure where to start.

He couldn’t put the entire blame on Li Tianyi, knowing he didn’t want this outcome.

Old Mr. Li stayed in the hospital for observation, not requiring company as none could enter.

Thus, everyone went back home.

…

Nan Qiao returned with Li Yehan, and the Bai Family heard about the situation, all worried.

Grandpa Bai incredulous: “Today, I was just having lunch with Old Li, and he was lively, how could such a calamity happen.”

Granny Bai: “Could it be intentional?”

Such large flower pots, how could they just fall suddenly?

Bai Zhenyang: “Qiaoqiao, Uncle Li is in the ICU, can you find out when he’ll wake up?”

So they could visit.

“Dad, Grandpa Li’s condition isn’t optimistic. It’s uncertain when he’ll wake up.”

Nan Qiao felt despondent, as Grandpa Li might never wake up.

Thinking so made Nan Qiao feel even worse.

Chen Xinwan: “Uncle Li is protected by good fortune. He wishes to see his great-grandchildren, with such strong survival instincts, he’ll surely regain consciousness soon.”

Everyone lamented the unpredictability of life—fine one moment and critically injured the next, and it happened at Li Tianyi’s home.

Everyone felt heavy-hearted, it was hard to believe there wasn’t a hidden agenda.

Li Tianyi was most suspicious!

Chen Xinwan observed Nan Qiao’s fatigue and sympathetically said: “Yehan, why don’t you take Qiaoqiao upstairs to rest. Qiaoqiao performed the resuscitation, stood for so long, and she’s pregnant, she needs to lie down and rest.”

Li Yehan: “Qiaoqiao, let me take you upstairs first.”

Nan Qiao didn’t pretend to be strong and went upstairs with Li Yehan to rest.

Chen Xinwan felt her heart ache seeing this.

Her precious daughter was too weary.

Chen Xinwan said: “Zhenyang, tomorrow morning none of us should go to work, stay home first and eliminate any hazards. Also instruct the servants to be cautious. Anyone dishonest should be fired and never hired again!”

Bai Zhenyang: “Wanwan, you’re thorough as always.”

Grandpa Bai: “Xinwan is right, start by eliminating risks from home.”

Address accidents first, then consider intentional acts.

…

Li Tianyi and his family of four returned home.

Li Ning wanted to say something but stopped, Li Chengyan nudged her with his elbow.

“Mom and Dad, Ningning and I are tired, we’ll go upstairs to rest first.”

Mei Tian Sha Zi: “Go ahead.”

Li Ning lowered her head and went upstairs with Li Chengyan.

The siblings entered Li Chengyan’s room.

Li Ning closed the door and whispered: “Brother, could the incident really be related to Mom and Dad…”

“Ningning, don’t speak carelessly without evidence.”

Li Ning: “But the incident happened at our home, even if I don’t say it, they’ll think so.”

“It doesn’t matter what they think, as long as we don’t think that way.” Li Chengyan calmly said.

Li Ning sat down, feeling uneasy, growing more restless with her thoughts.

“But it doesn’t feel right, when did our family’s flower pots get placed on the rooftop?”

Li Chengyan: “There’s a lot you don’t know. Be careful not to speak rashly outside, or it could bring disaster upon Dad and Mom.”

Li Ning mumbled an acknowledgment, too scared to say anything further, fearing trouble.

Li Chengyan sat on the sofa, his mood heavy, like the weight of a thousand pounds, leaving him breathless.

He wished Old Mr. Li would wake up, yet feared the elder might utter words unfavorable to them.

Li Chengyan felt like he was being roasted in a pan, agony on all sides.

…

Mei Tian Sha Zi and Li Tianyi also returned to their room.

Mei Tian Sha Zi closed the door, feeling malicious and furious.

“These servants must be replaced! Your dad came over unexpectedly, if I hadn’t glanced at the surveillance and spotted the accident, we’d be dead!”

Li Tianyi: “Sending the servants away now would be as conspicuously revealing as covering nothing with ‘three hundred taels of silver.’ Do you want suspicion on you?”

Mei Tian Sha Zi hesitated, realizing this must be put aside for a longer-term plan.

“We must be extremely cautious in words and actions, any slip-ups and we’re doomed.” Cold sweat broke out on Li Tianyi’s back.

Both sat down, both tense about today’s events.

Mei Tian Sha Zi: “Li Yehan will definitely suspect us, and many actions will follow. Tianyi, we must plan how to respond.”

Li Tianyi: “His suspicions don’t matter if he can’t present evidence. Without evidence, he can’t slander me!”

Li Tianyi was also determined to prove his innocence!

He wasn’t a lamb for slaughter!

He was a sharpened sword!

“Find a chance to take care of the old man. His presence is a ticking time bomb, always at risk of exploding.” Li Tianyi said harshly.

Mei Tian Sha Zi softly responded with a secret intent.

“Let’s wait and see the old man’s condition, if he can die naturally, great; if not, I’ll push him along. The hospital’s filled with Li Yehan’s people, any misstep will be discovered, we can’t risk it.” Mei Tian Sha Zi said, distressed and uneasy.

Li Yehan and Nan Qiao were truly tough to take down!

Time and again calculated, ultimately exerting all effort in vain, leaving Mei Tian Sha Zi extremely frustrated.

This time, she wouldn’t return empty-handed!
