Chapter 143: Chapter 143: They’re Here

"We kicked my mom out yesterday. She’s the kind of person who would rather destroy what she can’t have than let someone else have it, so she might retaliate against us." Lin Mengyao still called Li Lihua ’mom,’ but her cold tone and gaze indicated that something had changed. Xu Ke was satisfied with this result, and he didn’t think Li Lihua could hurt him now.

Xu Ke just smiled and said casually, "There’s nothing to worry about. Leave it to your man."

It took a month for Li Lihua’s wounds to heal. On the first day she removed the bandages, it was time for the Li family’s monthly gathering. However, Xu Ke’s mobility was limited, and Lin Mengyao couldn’t leave, so for once, the two of them did not attend the gathering. Since they weren’t considered important figures, the Lin family members didn’t care whether they came or not. Some even hoped they would never come again.

At the dinner table, Li Lihua looked around and didn’t see Xu Ke and Lin Mengyao. Instead, she saw Lin Shichang and Lin Mengchen. Remembering how they had left her without hesitation that day, Li Lihua gritted her teeth.

Sitting next to Li Lihua, Xiao Chengjun heard her grinding her teeth and frowned with a harsh tone, "Sister-in-law, speaking frankly, you’re not a child. If you want something at the table, just take it yourself. No one will say anything. Why act so starved? People might think we’re mistreating you."

The accusations Lin Mengxi made against Lin Mengyao and Xu Ke echoed in her mind as she left. As their mother, she would eventually avenge this for her.

Li Lihua had something on her mind. Though she was annoyed with Xiao Chengjun, her hatred was directed elsewhere. So when all the Lin family members focused on her, she spoke the words she had prepared beforehand.
