Rebirth: CEO's Sweetheart Reaches the Life Pinnacle!-Chapter 87 - 84 Facing the Confrontation

Although they searched the entire room and couldn’t find the property deed, it wasn’t a big deal. After all, they were family, so no one cared!

The money was kept with the elderly woman, but it was agreed to be divided into three parts, with each family getting ten thousand. Though the amount wasn’t large, even a fly’s leg has meat—they wouldn’t let free money go to waste! Especially since her younger brother got a sweet deal, she was beyond satisfied!

Her brother’s wedding was planned for October 1st, National Day, and now all that remained was to give the house a simple renovation, buy some furniture and appliances, and it would be ready for move-in.

"Mom, can I not go? The renovation is too messy, and it’s too chaotic. I’ve already made plans to go out with my classmates!" She said, planting a kiss on her. Zhang Meihua laughed and scolded her, calling her a lazy girl, but agreed. Her daughter being a bit delicate wasn’t a big deal—after all, even if she went, she couldn’t really help much.

The next day, Li Si went to Zhang Meihua’s house. When Grandma Li opened the door and saw her, she appeared flustered, her eyes evasive.

"Li Si is here—is there something you need?"

Li Si sensed something strange. How could someone not even let her in?

"Yes! Are you really not going to let me in?" She frowned and questioned.

"Come in, come in. Grandma’s muddled. Sit down quickly!" Grandma Li ushered Li Si inside and seated her on the sofa.

Li Guofu’s current home was a two-bedroom apartment. Both bedroom doors were open, and Li Si could tell at a glance that only the elderly woman was home.

"They’re not at home?" Li Si glanced around and casually asked.

"Ah! Well, they had something to do and went out!" Grandma Li sat across from Li Si, speaking hesitantly, her expression unnatural.

Li Si didn’t want to waste words. She had come today to retrieve the keys to the house and to show evidence to Grandma Li proving she was her father’s biological child.

"I’m here today to collect the keys. Why are you lying? I’ve already found a friend of my father—he can attest that I am indeed his child!"

Grandma Li’s expression changed dramatically. "What? That’s impossible! I’m not lying. You’re not one of the Li Family’s children!"

Her heart was in turmoil. She hadn’t expected this child to find evidence so quickly. Originally, she had planned to drag things out until it was a done deal, thinking by then Li Si wouldn’t be able to stir up trouble!

Li Si didn’t want to argue with her and directly pulled a letter out of her bag. "This is my father’s correspondence from years ago. In it, he clearly states that I’m his child, with the nickname Tiantian. If you don’t believe me, take a look!"

Grandma Li snatched it and began reading with trembling fingers. Li Si didn’t miss a single change in her expression.

After a while, she pursed her lips tightly, finished reading the letter, and her face twisted in humiliation and rage. The wrinkles on her face looked even more severe.

"This letter must be a fake! I’m telling you, Little Li Si, don’t bully me just because I’m old. I remember things clearly! Hurry up and leave—don’t come here causing trouble!"

Li Si stood up and sneered. "Alright then, if you still don’t believe me, let’s go find Uncle and Aunt to do a DNA test and see if we’re blood relatives! The reason I haven’t done this directly before was that I wanted to gather some clues first! Where are the keys to my house? Return them to me! If you don’t, I’ll just find a locksmith to open it—it’s as simple as that!"

Grandma Li was suddenly stunned. She had already sold the house, so how could she return it? And how could she do a DNA test? If they did, wouldn’t it expose Second Uncle...

Her lips trembled slightly, and she looked at Li Si with pleading eyes. "Li Si, I’m begging you, okay? Even if you’re part of our family, don’t take the house! You’re still young, pretty, and there are plenty of men who’ll spend money on you and buy you a house. Why would you need this old property?"

Li Si felt like her lungs were about to explode from anger. What did this mean? She had simply said a few words, but Grandma Li had spilled everything. Clearly, she had lied on purpose!

"You’ve always known I’m my father’s biological child? Why did you say otherwise back then? Huh? I’m your granddaughter! Is there anyone who acts like you as a grandmother?" Li Si’s heart turned cold. This indifferent family relationship—how could she not hate, not resent?

"Li Si, Grandma didn’t want it to turn out like this either! But why didn’t you offer to give the money for my retirement? Besides, your uncle and aunt genuinely have financial difficulties. Since you’re well-off, why not help out a little?" Grandma Li asked indignantly, without even considering the fact that it was thirty thousand she was asking for—not thirty yuan! Even if Li Si had the money, this wasn’t the way to ask for help!

"So, all of this is my fault? Grandma, my good grandma, you still think that as long as I give you the retirement money, everyone will be happy, right? Have you even thought about the future?" Li Si clenched her fists tightly. Since everything was out in the open today, she wanted to hear the truth!

"Isn’t that how it should be?"

"Alright then, let me ask you—where have you seen children who are all still around, but the grandmother demands thirty thousand for retirement money from the granddaughter? Have you seen that? Huh?" Li Si really wanted to crack open her head and see how it worked inside.

Grandma Li avoided meeting Li Si’s gaze. "Anyway, it doesn’t matter how much you say—the house can’t be returned to you!"

"What do you mean? Did you sell the house?" Li Si immediately thought of this possibility. Could it be the same as in her previous life, sold to her second aunt’s brother?

"Yes." She didn’t have the courage to lift her head. Li Si’s anger seemed to reach the brink of collapse.

"Good, good! Excellent! My father should come back to life immediately to see what kind of wonderful grandmother he has and how she treats her own granddaughter!" Li Si shouted loudly, then quickly opened the door and stormed out, slamming it shut with a deafening sound.

Grandma Li’s legs went weak as she sat down. Could she really have been wrong? If her eldest son were still alive, would he blame her too? But what else could she have done?

Li Si furiously rushed to the residential courtyard, went up to the third floor, and knocked hard on the security door.

"Who is it?" Judging by the voice, it must be Zhang Meihua. When the door opened, and she saw Li Si, her face showed some unease. "Li Si, why are you here?"

Li Si forcefully pushed past her and strode quickly into the house. She scanned the surroundings. All the original items were gone, leaving only a cabinet covered in renovation plaster.

The walls were being painted, and Zhang Meihua’s brother, Zhang Shengli, wore work clothes, a baseball cap on his head, and a mask. When he saw Li Si, he casually removed his mask.

"What’s going on here? What makes you think you can do this to my house? Where are my things? Where did all my belongings go?" Li Si pointed at Zhang Meihua, gritting her teeth as she asked. Originally pale, her small face was now flushed with anger. At this moment, it felt like history repeating itself from her previous life—losing her property, left to rely on others. novelbuddy.cσ๓

At first, Zhang Meihua seemed uneasy, but as Li Si started shouting, her discomfort quickly vanished. "Li Si, why are you yelling? My brother bought this house—of course all your old stuff was thrown out! What would be the point of keeping it? To breed offspring?"
