Li Family Villa.
With Yu Xiaotong's help, Li Qingmei managed to see Li Pingwei.
She stated her purpose directly.
Li Pingwei’s expression was impassive. "Qingmei, I never go back on my decisions. This is final!"
Li Qingmei argued, "Grandpa, our cooperation with Bingqing Meizhuang is at a critical juncture. We cannot break it off!"
"Furthermore, we profit from our collaboration with Bingqing Meizhuang!"
Li Pingwei looked at her coldly. "Do you know that Qingmei Company's popularity has already fallen below that of Bingqing Meizhuang? If this continues, where will our company's status go?"
"But..."
Li Pingwei interrupted her directly. "There are no 'buts'. It's final!"
"Alright, I'm tired and need to rest!"
He waved his hand, dismissing them.
Yu Xiaotong could barely contain herself. "Grandpa Li, how can you be like this?"
Li Pingwei treated Yu Xiaotong with some politeness, owing to her status as the eldest daughter of the Yu family, a family known for its martial arts.
"Xiaotong, you shouldn't interfere in the Li family's affairs!" Li Pingwei said.
His attitude remained consistently cold, giving the impression of being unapproachable.
Yu Xiaotong was displeased and shouted, "Grandpa Li, how much has my sister sacrificed for Qingmei Company? Can't you see that? Does she want to be trampled underfoot?"
"Why can't you give her some time?"
Li Pingwei was angered by a junior speaking to him in such a manner. "I told you, you shouldn't interfere in the Li family's matters. It has nothing to do with you!"
"Alright, that's all!"
"You..." Yu Xiaotong was furious and yelled, "You old fool, you truly are an old fool!"
Seeing Yu Xiaotong stamping her feet in anger, Li Qingmei, afraid she might act impulsively, held her back.
She shook her head.
"Forget it..."
Li Qingmei was resigned.
She said no more.
To stand up for Li Qingmei, Yu Xiaotong shouted again, "Old man Li, you're getting more foolish by the day!"
"By employing a scoundrel like Li Qingyun, you're just watching Qingmei Company fall apart!"
These words finally provoked Li Pingwei.
Slap!
He slammed his palm on the table.
Enraged...
"Get out!"
"Get out immediately, I don't want to see you again!"
Yu Xiaotong gritted her teeth. "Old man, you will surely regret this!"
"Qingmei Company will also suffer heavy losses because of your decision!"
"Get out..." Li Pingwei was completely enraged. He grabbed the files on the table and flung them. "Get out, get out, get out! You are not qualified to lecture me!"
The folder hit Li Qingmei in the face, causing pain.
However, the pain in her heart was far greater. With tear-filled eyes, she said nothing more.
She chose to leave the Li family.
Yu Xiaotong let out another cold snort. "Old man, you will definitely regret this, deeply regret it!"
"Get out!"
Li Pingwei's countless unspoken words were reduced to this single word.
Thus, Li Qingmei and Yu Xiaotong left the Li family villa.
Yu Xiaotong comforted Li Qingmei. "Sister, don't be sad. He'll surely regret it!"
"By then, you'll be the one in charge of the company!"
Li Qingmei's face was now numb. "Forget it, we'll deal with the future when it comes."
"I don't want to think about it today!"
"Let's go... let's go home!"
Yu Xiaotong’s face broke into a smile. "Alright, that's my good big sister!"
"Want to have a drink together?"
"Sure!"
As they were about to get into the car, Li Qingyun suddenly drove over...
