After Bankruptcy, the Billionaire Asked Me to Marry Him!-Chapter 264: I Listen to Ah Li!

Li Xueqing entered the banquet hall and immediately spotted her Ah Li.

Among the female guests present, she was the youngest and the most beautiful.

But regardless of gender, people occasionally turned their heads to glance at her. In their eyes, there was not only the former admiration but also a hint of awe.

That awe, of course, had nothing to do with her being the miss of the Ye Family.

It was because of the man by Ah Li’s side.

"Yanci..."

Li Xueqing lifted her eyes to the young man who stood out among the crowd, and a smile formed at the corners of her mouth.

The crowd parted naturally, and Fu Yanci walked up to Li Xueqing. Before he could even utter a "good day, Aunt," Li Xueqing softly said, "Yanci, you’ve taken good care of Ah Li. Thank you for that, Mom is grateful!"

Fu Yanci was taken aback.

Ye Li also froze, tears spilling down her cheeks, "Mom..."

These days, Ye Li rarely heard her mom mentioning her dad.

She always thought it was because she was busy, leaving early and returning late from work, and had less time to accompany her mom, so naturally, she heard less of it.

But at this moment, Ye Li realized belatedly that it was not the case.

So, did Mom already know everything?

Knowing that, she then told her not to rush into marriage, and if she decided to call off the engagement with Zhou Hecchen, Mom would be the one to talk, and since Dad wasn’t there, her word would count as well.

Knowing that, she took the opportunity to give a gift to Fu Minghui, returning what was so-called dowry to the Zhou Family.

"Mom..."

Ye Li turned into a teary mess.

Li Xueqing’s eyes also brimmed with tears as she raised her hand to wipe away Ye Li’s tears, "Mom is perfectly fine, silly child, why are you crying?"

While speaking, Li Xueqing looked up at Fu Yanci, "Yanci, when are you and Ah Li planning to have the wedding?"

Ever since Li Xueqing said, "Thank you, Mom," Fu Yanci had felt a slight sense of relief in his heart.

Now that Li Xueqing asked, he immediately said in a deep voice, "Mom, I’ll listen to Ah Li!"

Li Xueqing was a bit stunned, her smile deepening.

The details of the Ye Family’s bankruptcy and her husband’s illness and death were thoroughly accessible online.

But as to how Ah Li had so suddenly married Fu Yanci, Li Xueqing knew nothing.

Yet, just like she trusted the upbringing of the Fu Family, believed in Fu Yanci’s character, Li Xueqing somehow felt in her heart that Fu Yanci was trustworthy.

And now thinking back on it, the breadcrumbs had been reminding her, the clues were there all along.

His occasional visits to the hospital.

At the Ye Mansion, his supposed wife "returning to her parents’ home."

And the generous gift that followed subsequently.

The man who used to be distant and aloof, only in front of her Ah Li did he seem less cold and more filled with gentleness and indulgence.

Although she didn’t believe in love without reason, Li Xueqing had immense confidence in Ye Li.

Her Ah Li, whether in looks, figure, or temperament, was top-notch.

Even if he didn’t love her now, he was bound to fall in love with her after spending day after day together.

"It’s okay, don’t cry..."

The handkerchief was soaked, but Ye Li couldn’t stop crying. Thinking of all the ways she had tried to keep it from her these past days, Li Xueqing felt terribly sore inside, "It’s Sister Hui’s birthday today, you need to be happy!"

Saying this, Li Xueqing turned back to Fu Minghui, who was struggling to keep her smile, "Sister Hui, now that we’ve seen each other, I’ll be heading back first."

Her fingernails dug into her palm, spreading a fine pain that allowed her to control herself from losing her composure.

Fu Minghui nodded, and before she could say anything, Li Xueqing was already being led out by Ye Li.

The quiet banquet hall gradually became noisy again.

Fu Minghui looked up once more, meeting Fu Yanci’s icy gaze filled with loathing.

"Fu Minghui..."

Not even wanting to utter an insincere "Sister," Fu Yanci’s voice was cold and stern, "You can keep being foolish, but don’t think everyone else is as foolish as you are!"

"Yanci, Yanci..."

Trying to stop him, but Fu Yanci strode away, not sparing her an extra glance.

Fu Minghui turned back to meet her husband’s furiously reddened, menacing face.
