After Divorcing, She Shocked the World

Chapter 126: Second Uncle of the Li Family

On the top floor of a condominium, Li Yanghong put out his cigar. When he thought of Wu Mei’s arrogant behavior, he felt that he couldn’t take it lying down.

After hesitating for a while, he dialed an overseas number and said in a low and nervous voice, “Hello? Things in China have gone awry. The Police Chief stepped forward to stop us. Li Nanchen has a powerful wife protecting him, so it’s difficult to force them to hand over their power…”

“We didn’t even get through the door of the house!”

“If we continue to let her stay by the Old Master’s side, the company might end up in her hands. Hurry up and think of a solution…”

In the garden bungalow overseas, Li Zhuo was trimming the roses. His hand froze for a moment before he replied coldly, “I understand.”

Li Yanghong was a little anxious. Right now, he could only place his hopes on Li Zhuo!

“Do you have a plan? I can help you!”

Li Zhuo was from the Li family’s eldest branch. Logically speaking, he should have been the one to take charge of the corporation back then. However, after Li Nanchen’s parents died, Li Zhuo took the initiative to take over the affairs of the overseas corporation. Since then, he hadn’t returned…

He did not even show up at the board meeting of the Li Corporation.

There were rumors on the financial street that Li Nanchen’s parents’ death was related to him, but the truth was unclear…

The dog in the garden barked. Li Zhuo looked at it coldly. He turned his head and used a pair of scissors to cut the two roses that had grown out. A few petals fell onto the ground. He lifted his leg and crushed them until they could not be seen. He then entered the villa without looking back. “Okay, I’ll think of a solution.”

“If there’s nothing else, don’t contact me again. I’ll look for you…”

Li Zhuo hung up the phone and swirled his wine glass. The scarlet liquid clinged to the glass wall as he looked at the bright full moon in the sky with a smile on his face.

The number of the Li Family’s villa was engraved in his heart. It was unfamiliar yet familiar. He solemnly pressed every number. The moment the call went through, he said in a low voice, “It’s a pity about Nanchen. I just received the news.”

“He’s your favorite grandson and your most important successor. You must be very sad, mustn’t you?”

“You have to take care of your health and not be too sad. Right now, the Li Corporation and even the Li Family are all depending on you to support them…”

The external sound transmission of old-fashioned phones was more serious. Wu Mei, who had pushed Old Master Li over to answer the call, could hear their conversation clearly.

Old Master Li’s expression was one of displeasure. He coughed twice abruptly and raised his walking stick to knock on the floor tiles as he said, “It’s not for you to pretend to be nice.”

Li Zhuo stood in front of the French windows and looked at the figure reflected in the glass. He deliberately furrowed his brows and pretended to be in deep sorrow, but his eyes were smiling as he said, “The Li Corporation is in chaos now. There needs to be someone to step forward to reassure the people.”

“Nanchen is considered my family. I also plan to bring my wife and children back to China to mourn him in three days. I’ll visit you while I’m at it…”

Old Master Li frowned and said resentfully, “No need!”

“You don’t have to come back to deal with the domestic affairs…”

As if not hearing his rejection, Li Zhuo raised his head and sipped on his red wine. Filled with anticipation, he said, “Old Master, we’ll meet in the villa in three days.”

Beep… Beep… Beep…

The call ended with a crash as the phone was hung up. Old Master Li was so angry that his blood pressure soared. Puzzled, Wu Mei asked, “You seem to hate Li Zhuo very much? Back then, he abandoned the right to run the Li Corporation and went overseas. Could there be another reason? Is it related to… Nanchen?”

Old Master Li was clearly unwilling to talk about this matter. His face darkened and he remained silent.

When Li Nanchen, who was undergoing rehabilitation training, heard their conversation and Li Zhuo’s name, his face turned cold…

Their abnormal behavior and attitude caused Wu Mei to suspect and speculate about Li Zhuo.?In her memories, she had never met this Second Uncle. Her understanding of Li Zhuo stopped at the few articles and tabloids about the Li family. The Li family’s collateral branches and even Li Nanchen rarely mentioned him…

It’s like a taboo that Li Zhuo can’t be mentioned. What exactly happened back then?

From the conversation she had overheard, Wu Mei could clearly tell that Li Zhuo was coming back with an ulterior motive and was not a good person!

If Li Zhuo is going to affect the entire plan, then they have to move faster!

Wu Mei helped Li Nanchen sit on the sofa in the living room and said in an extremely low voice, “If they come back in three days and see through our disguise and our family’s situation, it will be very disadvantageous for us! Since there’s no way to change the fact that they’re returning to the country, we can only bring forward our plan and take action in two days…”
