Rebirth: General, Don't Mess Around! Chapter 3799: Disdain

As for her stepson, Li Jinnian… At the thought of this, a smile appeared in Zhong Jingyun's eyes. All these years, her stepson had never properly returned ho, nor did he have any intention of reconciling with her husband. Her husband had said many tis that he raised a son for nothing, so her stepson naturally wouldn't beco a stumbling block for her children to inherit the Li family's assets.

Her stepchild was abandoned by her husband. Her greatest rival, Li Chuhai, was already dead. What else could Second Old Madam Li do?

She was old and always surrounded Old Master Li. She didn't know much about the outside world. When Old Master Li handed over his power to her husband, Second Old Madam Li would have to rely on her family.

Li Jinnian didn't want to stay any longer.

He nodded slightly at Li Hao and walked in front of Old Master Li. He bowed slightly in a polite gesture and said calmly, "Take care of yourself. I'll visit you the next ti I co back."

He had blood relations with his grandfather, which was sothing that couldn't be changed. He respected the old man a lot, but that was all.

Besides being close to the Fu family, there was another reason why Old Master Li didn't like Li Jinnian. He couldn't understand what his grandson was thinking.

The old master didn't like people and things that were out of his control. He didn't like them at all!

Hearing this, Old Master Li's expression turned a little dark. However, he needed Li Jinnian's help because of sothing. No matter how uncomfortable he was, he endured it for the ti being and said, "If you co ho and visit more often, I'll be in pink health.

"It's almost dinner ti. You only co ho a few tis throughout the year. This ti, your younger siblings are here. You should stay and have dinner with your family."

He wanted to express his love for his grandson, but because he had never treated Li Jinnian like this, his words didn't sound as though they ca from a place of concern. Instead, they sounded like an order.

Zhong Jingyun and her children's expressions were a little tense. Zhong Jingyun and Li Hao were slightly better and didn't show much of their emotions. However, Li Xin couldn't hold it in and cried out, "Grandpa, you want him to stay for dinner? Aren't you worried that Grandma will be aggrieved? No, I don't approve of this!

"Who'd like looking at this ice statue? Look at him. He's always so cold. It's as if our family owes him a lot of money. If I have to look at him, I'll lose my appetite!"

Old Master Li suddenly wanted to keep a grandson he didn't like for dinner. Li Xin felt threatened. It was as if one al was enough to destroy her status in the family.

This was what Second Old Madam Li liked about Li Xin. She was straightforward and could always say what she wanted to say but couldn't.

Before Zhong Jingyun could reprimand her, Second Old Madam Li hurriedly defended her. "Girl, you're joking again. What do you an by cold? Your brother is mature and steady. He doesn't like putting up appearances. Do you understand?"

"Grandma!" Li Xin wanted to say sothing, but Second Old Madam Li gave her a look and said softly, "Your grandpa said that you can't refute his words. Be more sensible."

Li Xin was afraid of Old Master Li, so she replied with a soft 'oh'. No matter how unwilling she was, she kept quiet.

Ever since Li Jinnian entered junior high, he never had any interactions with his stepmother. Li Hao and Li Xin liked to malign him. It wasn't that he didn't want to eat with his family; it was just that his family didn't like to sit at the sa dining table as him.

There was no room for discussion. Li Jinnian didn't even look at the people who were looking at him. He replied indifferently, "No, I still have sothing to settle. I'll see you the next ti I co back. Goodbye."
