Chapter 269 Communicate Well, Grandpa Says Sorry
Chapter 269 Communicate Well, Grandpa Says Sorry
Li Tingchen couldn't help but take a deep breath, then said: "I hope she doesn't know."
Hope she doesn't know.
This means Tao Xiwei knew about it.
Old Master Li also saw the problem just now. Faced with Li Tingchen's answer, he could only feel sorry for Li Tingchen.
"It's normal for her to make such a choice. After all, my younger brother grew up with her, and I have been with my grandfather since I was very young." Li Tingchen said slowly.
When Mr. Li heard what Li Tingchen said, his mind emerged with the scene of Li Tingchen as a child standing in the corner and secretly watching Tao Xiwei holding Li Hongyi, his eyes full of envy.
What did he do at that time?
He felt sorry for Li Tingchen, but on the surface he said to Li Tingchen in a very stern manner: "A real man should not pay attention to such petty love. You should look at the long-term. The future of the Li family is in your hands. You must make the Li family flourish."
After teaching Li Tingchen a lesson, Mr. Li turned around and told Tao Xiwei not to appear in front of Li Tingchen anymore, and also said that Li Hongyi was too spoiled.
Now think about it, because of him, Li Tingchen and his mother are not close, and his younger brother hates Li Tingchen...
When Mr. Li thought of this cute thing, his face turned even paler.
"Grandpa, are you feeling unwell?" Li Tingchen asked with concern.
Mr. Li shook his head slightly but was speechless.
Li Tingchen became even more worried when he saw this scene, and was about to reach out to press the bell to call the doctor over.
It's not that he didn't want Shen Xinlei to see it, but he wanted to ask the doctor who had treated Grandpa before to come over. The doctor knew what caused it, which could save a lot of time.
Mr. Li reached out and grabbed Li Tingchen's wrist, and said softly: "I'm fine, I just thought of something I had overlooked before."
"What's the matter?" Li Tingchen asked.
"Your mother should blame you for not being good to her!" Old Master Li stared at him and asked.
Li Tingchen said calmly: "She and I don't understand each other well enough. I think the help I gave her was good, but it was not what she needed. And what she needed, in my opinion, was not suitable for her... Over time, our relationship became increasingly strained."
When Li Tingchen first became disabled, Tao Xiwei also tried to be nice to him.
But they had never gotten along well for so many years. The better Tao Xiwei treated him, the worse the final result was.
"Your brother is stirring up trouble again. As time goes by, it's normal for her to favor your brother. I used to think I could control everything, but now it seems that I was too arrogant."
Mr. Li knows all these questions.
He just thought it was a minor issue and not worth his time to solve. He might as well spend more time on business.
However, these seemingly insignificant problems may eventually trigger all the problems.
Li Tingchen suffered a lot of grievances.
"grandfather……"
"I'm sorry!" said Mr. Li with slightly red eyes.
Li Tingchen didn't expect that Mr. Li would suddenly apologize to him.
Shen Xinlei, who was standing nearby, was surprised at first, but then felt happy for them.
"It's my fault. I was too strict with you. Now I think about it, it's really not easy for you." Grandpa Li said to Li Tingchen.
When he was young, everyone around him was flattering him. Gradually, Mr. Li felt that he was omnipotent.
It was not until the events that happened at home this year, which hit him one after another, that he began to reflect on what he had done in the past.
In fact, these are all mines that have been buried for so many years.
Rather than blaming Li Tingchen, it’s better to blame my former arrogant self.
"I know grandpa loves me." Li Tingchen felt embarrassed to say this, but this was also what he had wanted to say for all these years.
"..." Old Master Li opened his mouth and wanted to say something really weird about a grown man talking about love or not.
But the corners of his mouth kept rising slightly, and his depressed mood instantly became brighter because of Li Tingchen's words.
Seeing his grandfather's reaction, Li Tingchen's inner tension disappeared and he couldn't help but smile.
Seeing Li Tingchen smile, Mr. Li nodded randomly.
Of course he loved Li Tingchen, but he never said it.
My face gets hot thinking about it now.
Mr. Li coughed lightly and said slowly: "It's good to have this opportunity to speak out now."
Li Tingchen noticed that his grandfather was shy, which actually made him feel a little strange.
I didn't expect that just saying "I love grandpa" would result in such a result.
What Mr. Li said next made Li Tingchen understand more and more how powerful these words of love were.
"I doubted you before..." Old Master Li smiled bitterly. "I have raised you since you were a child. I know your character better than anyone else. But when you needed others' care the most, I doubted you. I am really sorry."
After his three grandsons died unexpectedly, Grandpa Li heard from his youngest son and people around him, and even Tao Xiwei, that it was Li Tingchen who killed them.
He had complaints in his heart.
Now that his youngest son is dead, he has even greater resentment and already hates Li Tingchen a little.
However, after Li Tingchen talked to him sincerely and let him know what Li Tingchen was thinking, Mr. Li suddenly realized how wrong he was.
"I didn't explain it to you properly at that time." Li Tingchen was also very hurt by his grandfather's attitude at that time. Now when he mentioned this matter, he could calmly say, "There is a lack of communication between us, so there are more and more misunderstandings."
In the past, Li Tingchen would never say these words to his grandfather.
In his opinion, it would be more practical to do things.
Now he has changed his mind.
Say what's in your heart and let grandpa know that he loves him in his heart.
He doesn't want anything to happen to his grandfather.
They have had too many suspicions in their hearts over the years, and if this continues they will become enemies.
Mr. Li nodded, agreeing with what Li Tingchen said, and said awkwardly and shyly: "Actually, it's good to just say whatever you want to say now."
Li Tingchen looked at Shen Xinlei next to him and said, "It was Shen Xinlei who taught me how to communicate."
Mr. Li looked at Shen Xinlei with gratitude, and felt even more fortunate that Li Tingchen could marry such a good wife. He also said: "It's a good thing that Tingchen married Xinlei."
Shen Xinlei smiled and said, "You both love each other and have a common goal, so just talk it out."
They chatted for a while and saw that Mr. Li was very tired.
"Grandpa, you take a rest first." Li Tingchen said softly.
Old Master Li didn't force himself to stay awake. He was indeed sleepy and wanted to sleep.
After he finished talking to Li Tingchen, the dark clouds in his heart dissipated for the most part.
Although I was still sad about the death of my youngest son, I didn't feel the suffocating feeling of dying as I did just now.
Li Tingchen said that he loved his grandfather.
This was enough for him to face all the problems that followed.
Mr. Li fell asleep as soon as he lay down.
Li Tingchen and Shen Xinlei walked out of the ward.
When they arrived at the elevator, Li Tingchen couldn't help but hug Shen Xinlei with both hands, kissed her on the face, and said softly: "Thank you."
