Chapter 1805: Bottom Line


    <h4>“You’re crazy! You’re crazy! Who are you calling crazy?! Brat, you’re the one who’s greedy for other people’s food and even called them crazy. You’re the one who deserves a beating!”</h4>


    “Oh my god, be gentler. Limo is in the midst of an IV drip. He’ll bleed from running the needle!”


    Qiao Zhn quickly stopped the olddy, speechless.


    She looked at Li Mo resentfully.


    “Say, this brat even said that it was Qingzhi’s fault. Should he be beaten up?!”


    Qiao Zhn nodded helplessly. “Yes.”


    It was indeed too much. It was obvious that a thief had stolen something.


    Who would steal someone’s food ande back to criticize them?


    Xu Qingzhi blinked and couldn’t react in time.


    Things didn’t seem right.


    Wasn’t it her fault?


    Although the olddy sounded angry, she didn’t continue.


    “Rascal, you’re really disliked by everyone. You’ve wasted Qingzhi!”


    Xu Qingzhi’s lips twitched. It felt good to have someone siding with her.


    Li Mo remained silent with a cold expression.


    “I’m warning you, if you dare to bully Qingzhi again, just you wait. Before you say anything, I’ll make her divorce you!”


    Li Mo remained silent. His expressionless face suddenly changed.


    “…She’s pregnant with the grandson of the Li family!”


    The olddy snorted coldly. “If you guys get a divorce, won’t I be the one giving you grandchildren?”


    Li Mo’s face was tense and he looked scary.


    Old Lady Li narrowed her eyes at him and raised an eyebrow.


    This kid’s face was quite ugly!


    She coughed lightly and said, “I wonder how many men are waiting to woo Zhizhi since she’s so beautiful and outstanding.”


    “Zhizhi, if you choose another man in the future, you have to open your eyes wide and take a good look. Don’t choose someone like him. Choose someone taller and more handsome. No matter what a woman loses, you can’t lose face. Without him, you have to live better than now!”


    Xu Qingzhi nced at Li Mo, who had an ugly expression on his face. She pursed her lips to suppress herughter and nodded lightly. “Thank you for your advice, Grandma. I will.”


    “That’s good. Don’t let yourself suffer. You have to be confident. You’re so outstanding. How can youck a man who admires you?”


    Li Mo’s face darkened.


    Where did this biological grandmothere from? She must havee specially to anger him to death.


    “If there’s nothing else, you can leave!”


    The olddy nced at him and snorted coldly. She continued to say to Qing Zhi, “I remember the international Best Actor who appeared on the news with you two days ago… Is his name Chu Yi? I think he’s really not bad. He’s tall, fair, handsome, and has a good temperament. If you can’t live with him in the future, you can reserve him first…”


    Limo was so angry that his lungs were about to explode and his stomach hurt.


    This wasn’t his grandmother. This was an old witch.


    Xu Qingzhi was shocked by the olddy’s words and wondered if she was Limo’s biological grandmother.


    If that was the case, it would be a godly trap.


    Who would ask their granddaughter-inw to find a spare tire?


    “Grandma…”


    Xu Qingzhi called out softly. She didn’t dare to look at Limo’s face now. She only hoped that Grandma would show mercy and stop provoking him.


    She finally understood how much he disliked Chu Yi.


    She had never heard of anyone having a stomachache when they saw another person. Wasn’t Limo having a stomachache when he saw Chu Yi?


    “Huh? Is that Best Actor still in Rong City?”


    Xu Qingzhi paused and nodded. “Yes…” And she lived next door.


    “If there’s a chance, introduce him to me! He’s so handsome on camera. I have to meet him in person… Although I’m old now, I still have the heart of a young girl. I have to meet such a handsome man!”


    Li Mo was speechless.


    Xu Qingzhi smiled and said, “Okay.”


    Just as she finished speaking, Li Mo’s deep voice sounded. “Xu Qingzhi!”


    “Huh?”


    Li Mo red at her and she hurriedly shifted her gaze elsewhere.


    “I’m out of medicine. Pull out the needles!”


    Xu Qingzhi nced at the IV drip and hurried over. “There’s another bottle…”


    “I won’t lose!”


    “Limo…” Qiao Zhn’s heart ached for her son, so she naturally disagreed.


    Xu Qingzhi didn’t say anything and silently inserted the needle into another bottle of medicine.


    “Xu Qingzhi!”


    Xu Qingzhi looked troubled. “Stop fooling around. Bear with it…”


    Li Mo pursed his lips and said, “I can continue if you want me to. Hurry up and send them away. Not only does my stomach hurt, but my lungs also hurt! Hurry up!”


    Xu Qingzhi frowned in confusion.


    Please spare her.


    They were all elders. How could she invite him out?


    “Rascal! Who are you being spiteful with?!”


    Even a fool could hear Li Mo’s straightforward words. The olddy grabbed his ear angrily.


    “You dare to chase us away? Are you not hanging anymore? I’ll pull it out for you!”


    As the olddy spoke, she bent down to remove the needles for Li Mo. From the looks of it, she felt that she wouldn’t be able to vent her anger if she didn’t stab him with a needle.


    Qiao Zhn and Xu Qingzhi were so frightened by the olddy’s actions that their faces turned pale. Qiao Zhn quickly hugged the olddy. Xu Qingzhi quickly bent down to protect Limo’s hand, afraid that the olddy would really pull it off!


    Seeing how protective Xu Qingzhi was of Limo, a smile shed across the olddy’s eyes.


    “Zhizhi, don’t protect him. He’s not worth it… What did he say just now? He actually wants to chase me and his mother out. Is that something a human should say? Move aside. This is between us and him. It has nothing to do with you!”


    Xu Qingzhi lowered her head to check Li Mo’s hand. Thank God he was fine.


    Then, she turned around and exined helplessly for Limo, “Grandma, you’ve misunderstood Limo. He… is sick and in a bad mood. Please bear with him…”


    “How can you lose your brain when you’re sick? Move aside, or I’ll hit you too!”


    As the olddy spoke, she pushed Qiao Zhn away and swung her walking stick at Xu Qingzhi.


    Seeing this, Li Mo’s eyes darkened and turned cold. He immediately raised his hand to cover Xu Qingzhi’s head and pulled her into his embrace.


    The corners of the olddy’s lips curled up. In the end, the rodnded on Li Mo’s arm.


    He used a lot of strength.


    Of course she had to be serious. Otherwise, how could she fool this smart brat?


    If not for this, she wouldn’t have known that this brat cared so much about Xiao Qingzhi.


    Xu Qingzhi didn’t feel any pain, but the sound of a sticknding on her body stunned her. She reacted quickly and got up, only to see Li Mo’s arm with a needle in it hugging her. The olddy’s walking stick had alsonded on his shoulder.


    With such a huge movement, there was already blood flowing back into the hose.


    The needle ran.


    Xu Qingzhi didn’t care if the olddy’s walking stick would fall again. She hurriedly ced Li Mo’s hand t and pulled out the needle with a trembling hand.


    The white cotton ball was instantly soaked in bright red blood. Xu Qingzhi pressed it with all her might and took out a new cotton ball from the side. She changed it and pressed it hard.


    Then, she looked up at Li Mo and asked, “Does it hurt?”


    Li Mo looked at her for a while and shook his head. “I’m fine.”


    Qiao Zhn looked at the mess in the room. The IV drip was shaking and the IV line had been removed. The liquid was flowing on the ground and Li Mo’s hand was bleeding. It was simply…


    It was a mess.


    All of this made her feel aggrieved. “Mom, why are you like this?!”


    As she spoke, she released the olddy and sat on the sofa, wiping her tears.


    Seeing that she had made her daughter-inw cry, the olddy’s expression changed and she felt awkward.


    “Well…” She put down her walking stick and took two steps towards her. “Isn’t your son always angering me?”


    “It’s fine if you scold him or hit him, but he’s still sick and has just been discharged from the hospital. He’s still on an IV drip… and you’re still like this…”


    Her tone sounded aggrieved, and her sobs made one’s heart ache.


    If the olddy was not afraid of anything, the only thing that could make her helpless was that she had made her daughter-inw cry.


    Her daughter-inw was kind, gentle, and sensible. She had nothing to say to her.


    She couldn’t find anything wrong with it. The only thing was that she doted on Limo too much.


    No matter what, he was his only precious grandson. She was naturally happy to dote on him. However, she had always doted on him without any principles. It wasn’t that she loved him, but she was harming him.


    There had to be someone to teach the juniors a lesson.


    Since she couldn’t be her daughter-inw, she could only do it.


    Fortunately, Li Mo was thick-skinned…


    But after the incident, her daughter-inw was really hard to coax…


    It was a sin to make such a kind and gentle person cry.


    “I couldn’t help myself…”


    Qiao Zhn sobbed loudly. “You’re always like this. You’re always so ruthless. He’s your biological grandson… and Qingzhi is still pregnant…”


    The olddy sat in front of her and stroked Qiao Zhn’s hand apologetically as sheforted her, “Don’t cry, don’t cry. I feel terrible when you cry… Look at my bad temper, it won’t happen again…”


    “You always say that…”


    “It’s true this time. I’ll be gentler next time…”


    “You…”


    Qiao Zhn looked up at her angrily, her eyes red.


    The olddy choked and gave her an awkward smile. “Don’t cry… He’s a child. It’s better to hit him. Isn’t he healthy after all these years?”


    Qiao Zhn pouted aggrievedly. “…He’s almost a father. Don’t think of hitting him anymore. It’s not good for the child…”


    The olddy nodded. “Yes, yes, you have to…”


    Qiao Zhn’s expression softened.


    Xu Qingzhi was speechless.


    She had no idea what kind of family the Li family was.


    Anyway, it was not bad.


    She blinked and shifted her gaze to Li Mo’s hand. The new cotton ball had been soaked again. She changed it and looked up at Limo with heartache.


    Then, she pressed the cotton ball and raised his arm. She asked softly, “Where did Grandma hit you just now?”


    Li Mo pursed his lips. “On my arm.”


    Xu Qingzhi rolled up his sleeve and saw an obvious red mark below his shoulder.


    Her face tensed and she reached out to rub it gently. “Does it hurt?”


    Li Mo stared at her intently, his gaze lingering on her head. “You’re fine?”


    Xu Qingzhi shook her head. “Yes.”


    Li Mo raised his hand and pressed her head down again. His warm palm rubbed her head. “Are you sure it doesn’t hurt?”


    “It really doesn’t hurt…”


    Xu Qingzhi’s heart ached and she was touched.


    The reason why he had be like this and bled so much was to protect her…


    In the four-person room, only their voices could be heard.


    The olddy sat on the sofa and looked at them with a smile.


    Qiao Zhn was also attracted by their interaction. Looking at the olddy’s expression, she suddenly understood that she had raised her walking stick and swung it at Qing Zhi without any hesitation.


    So she had predicted that Limo would protect her?


    However…


    Their rtionship… seemed to have improved by leaps and bounds in just a few days!


    But… was it that fast?


    They had been married for two months, but Limo refused to face Qingzhi.


    It took less than three days to develop their rtionship to this stage…


    This child, Li Mo…


    Did she really dislike Qingzhi from the start?


    Even if they were dating under normal circumstances, it was impossible for their rtionship to develop so quickly, right?


    After a while, she felt relieved.


    In short, it was natural for the rtionship between the two children to develop in a good direction.


    Regardless of what happened in the past, it would be fine in the future.


    “The bleeding has almost stopped… Wait a while more. I’ll call the doctor and get him to inject you again.”


    Xu Qingzhi suddenly spoke. She stood up and reached for her phone.


    However, Li Mo stopped her. “No need, I won’t lose today…”


    “…” Xu Qingzhi didn’t say anything and only lowered her head to look at him with a miserable expression.


    Li Mo pursed his lips and released her hand before turning his head away.


    “Tell him to hurry up!”


    Xu Qingzhi smiled and called the doctor.


    Not long after, the doctor returned.


    He didn’t know what had happened. He quietly cleaned up the mess and prepared the medicine. “CEO Li, let’s change our right hand?”


    Li Mo refused without hesitation. “No, my left hand.”


    The doctor looked at the bruise on the back of his left hand and was a little conflicted. “CEO Li, look…”


    “Can’t we go somewhere else?” There was no room for negotiation.


    The doctor didn’t waste any time. He found another blood vessel nearby and inserted the needle.


    The olddy and Qiao Zhn heaved a sigh of relief when they saw how obedient he was.


    “You only know how to make things difficult for others. You’re almost turning into a sweet potato…” said the olddy.


    Li Mo nced at her coldly. “Who do you think caused this?”


    The olddy pouted.


    “If there’s nothing else, get out quickly!”


    Li Mo’s tone was really harsh. It would have been fine if she had only hit him, but the moment the olddy’s rodnded on Xu Qingzhi…


    Indeed, he could clearly feel his heart suddenly tightening and suffocating.


    That moment of panic was still fresh in his mind.


    She felt an inexplicable sense of anger.


    That feeling was as if someone had stepped on her bottom line. It was unforgivable.


    If the other party wasn’t his grandmother, if he hadn’t protected Xu Qingzhi back then, he didn’t know what he would have done.
