Chapter 238

When the lights came on, the Li family's old house located on the hillside of Surabaya in the suburbs was brightly lit, and there were whispers of people.

Li's old house is an old house with a history of nearly two centuries. After years of wind, frost, rain and dew, it looks like a warm and wise woman, standing quietly on the Sishui Mountain, watching everything that has changed in the light years of the capital.

Grandpa Li's birthday starts at eight o'clock.It was nearly an hour before the banquet started, and the most important guests had not yet arrived, and the grandfather of the Li family was still resting in the master bedroom and did not show up.

Seeing the guests arriving one after another, Li Jianzhong planned to go downstairs to entertain the invited guests after finishing dressing.Liu Wanqin was wearing a simple cut low-cut long-tailed evening dress, a string of round pearl necklaces around her neck, and a soft mink vest on her shoulders.She has delicate and decent light makeup painted on her face, the raised eyebrows, and the delicate eyeliner are drawn, revealing infinite charm in the flow of her eyes.

She was obviously a woman in her late forties, but she looked like a graceful and graceful young woman in her thirties.At this time, she was smiling and Yan Yan leaned in front of Li Jianzhong, straightening his tie himself. "Jianzhong, you said that the old man is holding a birthday banquet at this time, what is the purpose?"

"The old man's mind is not sure, so don't guess here, come down with me to entertain guests." Li Jianzhong's neck was pulled by her, and he felt that the tie was a little tight, and loosened it by himself in the mirror.

A tall and straight figure was reflected in the mirror. He was wearing a stiff black suit, matched with his square and serious face, and his deep eyes were sharp and indifferent, giving him a hint of iron and blood.If it weren't for the silver streaks on the temples of the man's hair and the fine lines around his eyes, at first glance he would have thought he was Li Taemin's brother.

This is Li Taimin's father, Li Jianzhong. In terms of appearance, the father and son are three points alike, especially those seemingly ruthless eyes, which are clearly carved out of the same mark.However, Li Jianzhong has more vicissitudes and a sense of gravity that has gone through the years than Li Taimin, and is more cold and serious than him.

"I know. But I still have a question." Liu Wanqin coquettishly leaned on the man's back and held the little bird's arm, "What I want to say is, will Taemin come over today?"

"The old man issued an ultimatum himself, and he will not stop coming." Speaking of his paranoid son, Li Jianzhong couldn't help but frowned, pursed his thin lips slightly, and said in a cold tone, "Okay, don't be long-winded , follow me down."

After saying that, he resolutely turned around and left.Liu Wanqin stood on the spot and watched his retreating figure step by step, her beautiful eyes sparkled and her face was deep.

"Still not following?" The man didn't hear the footsteps behind him, he slowed down and looked back at her, his cold eyes met her lightly.

"Come on." She forced a smile, lifted the hem of her skirt to follow, put her arms around the man's strong shoulders, staggered half of her body, and followed him downstairs.

At the other end of the corridor in the room, in front of the huge French windows, an old man with white hair and fluttering white beard leaned on crutches, hunched over and stared at the darkening sky outside the window, motionless.There was a small gap in the window, and there was a thick and sweet fragrance faintly, which was the fragrance of roses.

As time slowly passed, the old man was like a resolute statue, never making any movement until his old servant came to him with a bowl of soup that he didn't know what it was, and he asked, " Is everyone here?"

"Master, people from the Zhang family, Chen family, and Han family have all arrived, Master Zhong has also arrived, and some young people have just arrived." Holding the soup bowl, the old servant waited respectfully and replied.

"That kid Taemin is here too?"

In fact, when he asked just now, he wanted to know if Li Taemin had also arrived.As the eldest grandson of the Li family, Taimin is the one he admires and loves the most among all the children and grandchildren. It is a pity that good luck tricks people, because of accidents, misunderstandings, and various external circumstances, resulting in the scene where relatives are not like relatives today, which is unavoidable. So sad.

"This..." The old servant is also an old man who has served him for decades, how can he not know the true thoughts of his master.Thinking of the increasingly condensed atmosphere in the Li family, he also felt a lot of emotion.He also understood that the purpose of the master taking this opportunity to hold a small birthday banquet in the old house was actually just to see the young master Sun who had been away for a long time. "Master Sun hasn't arrived yet. But there is still some time before the banquet, master..."

"Okay. I don't know what kind of mouth you have, old boy? Don't do such stupid things as comforting me. I can't think about it when I am old?" Mrs. Li sighed, leaning on crutches and slowly sat down on the sofa . "Take it here."

The old servant let out an "hey" and quickly served the soup bowl for people to drink.

"This house has not been lived in for almost 20 years, and it has been quiet all the time. Today it will be quite lively."
