After Divorcing, She Shocked the World-Chapter 226 - Closing the Door in a fit of pique

After leaving the Wu Corporation, Wu Mei still wanted to persuade Mother Wu to change her mind. Frowning, she said, “Mom, listen to me…”

Mo Li and Wu Pang clearly did not have good intentions. They would definitely think of various ways to target Mother Wu, but Wu Mei could not tell her about that either.

Mother Wu shook her head stubbornly and refused, “Mei’er, it’s all because of me.”

“I want to stay in the company. This way, I might have a chance to take back the company! After all, that’s the only thing your Grandpa left for me.”

“Can you support Mom? You have to believe that I can do it!”

Wu Mei took a deep breath. Suppressing the frustration and anxiety in her heart, she looked away and followed Mother Wu back to the Li Family’s villa. 𝗳𝙧𝐞𝚎w𝗲𝚋n𝚘𝙫𝑒𝘭.𝑐om

Bang!

Wu Mei returned to the bedroom the moment she reached home. She slammed the door shut. Mother Wu was somewhat helpless and wanted to have a good talk with her. However, no matter how she knocked on the door, there was no response. Mother Wu called out worriedly, “Mei’er! If there’s anything, just tell Mom!”

“Don’t coop yourself up in the room. Mom will be very worried!”

Wu Mei pursed her red lips and sat in front of the computer. She then logged into the Ministry of Defense’s DarkNet to look up information on Mo Li.

Looking through her information and resume, Wu Mei found nothing amiss. It was no different from what Li Nanchen had found out.

Wu Mei stared at Mo Li’s photo, feeling increasingly flustered and frustrated. She had a nagging feeling that Mo Li’s information seemed to have been specially modified or created.

Mother Wu was so nervous that she paced around in circles. Her eyes were red as she said anxiously, “Mei’er, it’s Mom’s fault.”

“Aside from the company’s matters, Mom will listen to you in the future, okay?”

Wu Mei’s brows furrowed tightly. She did not know how to face Mother Wu and what might happen in the future. She could only silently cover her face with her hand and sit on the edge of the bed.

Hearing no reply from the room, Mother Wu thought of Li Nanchen and quickly ran to the study to look for him.

Li Nanchen looked at Mother Wu in surprise. He stood up and wanted to get her to sit down and also tried to pour her a cup of warm tea.

However, Mother Wu was so anxious that she grabbed his wrist and said, “Mei’er usually listens to you the most. She’s angry with me now and refuses to see me.”

“She locked herself in her room. I’m afraid something will happen to her. Can you help me talk to her?”

Li Nanchen did not dare to hesitate as he followed Mother Wu to Wu Mei’s room. He knocked lightly on the door but did not receive any response.

He lowered his head to look at the door lock and asked the butler for two thin metal wires. Li Nanchen bent the metal wires into a special shape and slowly stuck them into the keyhole to turn it…

Nervously pressing her palms together, Mother Wu held her breath and waited.

Li Nanchen hooked the metal wire twice and realized that Wu Mei had taken precautions for the door from the inside and he could not forcefully open it from the outside.

Seeing that his plan had failed, he rolled his eyes and hinted at Mother Wu.

The next moment, Li Nanchen shouted, “Auntie? What’s wrong? Butler, quickly get Bi Fang here! Auntie fainted!”

Muffled footsteps came from outside the room. Wu Mei couldn’t sit still and stood up. She knew that it was probably Li Nanchen’s scheme, but she still opened the door to check.

When Li Nanchen saw that the door was slightly ajar, he immediately used his hand to block the door and squeezed his way in.

“You… Damn it!”

Wu Mei was in a bad mood and Li Nanchen’s actions angered her even more.

She began to attack him with swift and fierce movements. Li Nanchen subconsciously raised his arm to defend and closed the door with the other while comforting Mother Wu, “Auntie, don’t worry. I will definitely coax her properly!”

“Butler, bring Auntie back to rest first.”

Li Nanchen watched as Wu Mei kicked his knee with all her might. He crouched over in pain and covered his leg. In a low voice, he said, “You’re serious about this?”
