Reborn to Outshine My Ex and His White Moonlight novel Chapter 912

Chapter 912: Chapter 912: Scheming Li Huan

Li Huan remained silent for a long time, so long that Ren Xiya felt she was indeed being too demanding.

"I’m sorry, I..."

"Is it still possible to have Lin Zhiyi design the wedding ring now? I don’t want to get married just casually."

Li Huan suddenly spoke up.

He walked around in front of Ren Xiya twice.

He added, "By the way, I’ve been learning Chinese medicine lately, so I might be quite busy. Won’t the date be too rushed?"

Ren Xiya chuckled softly, worrying needlessly.

"No rush, we can get engaged first."

"Then I’ll have my mom pick a good date. After today’s events, I think she’s got no objections to you."

"What if she does?" Ren Xiya asked.

"The marriage is mine, and I will stick to it. If worse comes to worst, we just won’t get married," Li Huan answered, sounding both naive and sincere.

Ren Xiya approached him and said, "Li Huan, thank you."

Li Huan held her hand, "Thank you for not minding me. The family will be entrusted to you in the future."

...

In the living room.

Mrs. Li walked back and forth worriedly, fearing that her previous attitude would affect Ren Xiya and Li Huan’s relationship.

Lin Zhiyi observed without intervening.

She thought Mrs. Li should indeed be anxious.

Otherwise, she might really think Ren Xiya was here to throw herself at them.

Seeing that Lin Zhiyi was silent, Mrs. Li pursed her lips and couldn’t help but speak up.

"Miss Lin, about Li Huan and Miss Ren..."

"Mrs. Li, don’t worry. If you don’t like Xiya, we won’t force it. Xiya knows her limits well. She doesn’t want to be a thorn in your and Li Huan’s side. If it doesn’t work out after the talk, then that’s it."

Lin Zhiyi put down the teacup and spoke with feigned helplessness.

"No, no! I know I’ve been too petty before. It’s entirely my fault, and it has nothing to do with Li Huan." Mrs. Li explained.

Lin Zhiyi thought for a moment, and continued, "Third Young Master said he’s best friends with Li Huan, and Xiya is his sister. He doesn’t want to be caught in the middle and create resentments. Mrs. Li, you don’t have to go against your own feelings to accept Xiya."

"That’s not true!" Mrs. Li immediately replied, "Before, I was indeed influenced by some words. I thought she and her mother were just trying to cling to power, so I didn’t take the time to understand her properly. After seeing her wisdom today, I realize I made a big mistake."

"So, Mrs. Li has accepted Xiya now?" Lin Zhiyi asked.

"Of course, and I just hope she won’t look down on our family. I won’t interfere in her and Li Huan’s relationship again," Mrs. Li stated solemnly.

Lin Zhiyi had achieved her goal and stopped pressing.

"Mrs. Li, imagine having Xiya in the Li Family, Li Huan continuing his medical studies, and you just taking care of the children, shopping, traveling. We’re all adults now, no need to overthink things."

"Even if there’s an issue between them, you can’t be blamed, right?"

Lin Zhiyi’s advice suddenly made Mrs. Li realize something.

"You’re right. Ever since Li Huan’s father left, I’ve been constantly worried, overthinking, but the results haven’t been great."

"Take the time to enjoy your life in the future." Lin Zhiyi smiled.

Mrs. Li nodded.

Meanwhile, Li Huan and Ren Xiya had also reached an agreement.

The two appeared together, smiling, and Lin Zhiyi knew everything was perfectly resolved.

Seeing this, Mrs. Li stood up and said, "I’ll have the kitchen prepare lunch. Let’s sit down and eat, I think Li Huan might have something to announce."

Ren Xiya nodded, "Okay."

Before the meal, Mrs. Li asked about Ren Xiya’s situation.

After hearing, as a woman, she felt some sympathy for Ren Xiya, and internally regretted how she had treated her.

"Once you’re part of the Li Family, don’t worry too much. It’s just Li Huan might be too busy, afraid of neglecting you."

Li Huan laughed, "She’s busier than I am, I’m the one worried she’ll neglect me."

"Oh, stop it."

Mrs. Li waved her hand.

The steward came over to announce the meal.

Lin Zhiyi thought to herself.

"Xiya and I timed our entrance precisely to change Mrs. Li’s perspective, turns out Li Huan was waiting for us?"

"In school, I was first, Li Huan was second. His ways of dealing with things are just different."

"....."

Once again, being outsmarted.

Lin Zhiyi put down her phone, looking at Li Huan across the table.

Li Huan understood her thoughts with just one glance, smiling as he scooped her a bowl of soup.

Indeed, people who befriend Gong Chen are truly scheming.

Lin Zhiyi took the soup, just about to sip, when Li Huan’s phone rang urgently.

He glanced at the screen, showing no surprise.

Upon answering, curses erupted from the other end.

"Li Huan! You’ve gone too far! How can you let people demand money from your siblings? Now your sister’s in-laws and brother’s company know, how are they supposed to survive?"

It was Uncle Li.

"When you were scheming, did you consider these? Anyway, you have no ties with the Li Family anymore. If I report and investigate the house mortgage, are you planning on going to jail for your kids?" Li Huan retorted.

"You... Li Huan, you deliberately got us to sign the separation agreement! You’ll die a horrible death!"

"Let’s see if you live to see another day first."

Li Huan hung up abruptly.

On the other side, Mrs. Li shook her head at the phone.

"Your siblings are denouncing you in the group chat."

"Saying debt collectors chased them home. After your sister’s in-laws found out, they’re forcing her divorce, and your brother’s company has suspended him."

Li Huan sneered, "Serves them right. Does anyone in the group even care?"

Initially, Mrs. Li would’ve said families are meant to be together.

But this time, she turned off her phone, and said, "Let’s eat, otherwise the food’s cold and won’t taste good."
