Meng Yu’s expression hinted at a trace of discomfort, but Li Zhe’s grip on his palm tightened intensely. Li Zhe, however, felt a sense of fear; he feared that Meng Yu might back down.
For over a decade, he had earnestly sought the love of his life, and he couldn’t bear the thought of letting Meng Yu go. It was unbearable for him.
Meng Yu glanced at Li Zhe, whose face was etched with the plea of desperation. He sighed softly in his heart, then firmly squeezed Li Zhe’s hand, turning to face Li Yuan. “I’m sorry, Chairman, I can’t do it. As long as Ah Zhe doesn’t give up on me, I will never give up on him.”
Li Zhe’s starry eyes carried a hint of moisture, but he spoke with determination to Li Yuan, “Grandfather, don’t use morality to constrain Ah Yu.
No matter what you say, we won’t change our minds.”
Since softening his approach wasn’t working, Li Yuan resorted to a more forceful tone. “Have you really thought this through? If you choose to be with Meng Yu, from today onward, you will no longer be the heir to the Li family. Everything you own now will be taken away, and you will have nothing!’
Li Zhe, with a calm smile on his face, responded, “1 have thought it through and will not regret it! You can take away those things any time; I’ll manage without them.”
“Fine! Fine!” Li Yuan, consumed by anger, declared, “I want to see if your love can withstand the test!”
Li Jin quickly expressed concern, “Grandfather, you mustn’t get too agitated, or you might faint again.”
Looking at Li Zhe, Li Jin helplessly said, “Cousin, can’t you just appease Grandfather for now? We can figure things out later. What if something goes wrong?”
Li Yuan snorted, “You don’t need to talk to that unworthy descendant. My life and death have nothing to do with him anymore. From today, he is no longer the heir of the Li family. The future of the Li family depends on you, Jin’er. Find someone to marry into the family, and the Li family will continue.”
Li Jin was anxious upon hearing this, “Grandfather, please don’t speak nonsense! How can you say such things in a fit of anger?”
Li Yuan glared at Li Zhe and sneered, “I’m not speaking nonsense, nor is it just anger! Does he really think the Li family can’t survive without him? What a joke!”
Furrowing her brow, Li Jin looked at Li Zhe and said in a low voice, “Cousin, can’t you just go along with Grandfather for now? We can figure things out later, can’t we?”
Despite worrying about Li Yuan’s health, Li Zhe couldn’t bring himself to utter words that would separate him from Meng Yu.
In the end, Li Zhe could only sigh and say to Li Jin, “Li Jin, I entrust my grandfather to you for now. My parents should be arriving later.”
With that, Li Zhe took Meng Yu’s hand and, facing Li Yuan and Guan Yi, said,
“I’m sorry, but Meng Yu and I will never be apart in this lifetime.”
After expressing his determination, Li Zhe bowed respectfully to the two elderly individuals before leaving with Meng Yu.
Shen Xi and Guan Lei exchanged glances and silently followed them out, with Guan Yan and his wife trailing behind.
The hospital room suddenly became empty, leaving only the two elderly people struggling to accept the reality.
Meanwhile, the departing group stopped at the hospital’s entrance. Guan Lei looked at the intertwined hands of the couple and sighed, asking, “What are your plans for the future?”
Li Zhe and Meng Yu exchanged a glance before answering, “Following the original plan, we’ll get registered abroad first, then go on our honeymoon. After that, I’ll work hard to support Ah Yu!”
Meng Yu chuckled, “Who said I need you to support me?”
Li Zhe grinned, his eyes curved, “Naturally, it’s my initiative to support you. I shamelessly want to take care of you.”
Guan Yan, watching the affectionate pair in front of him, couldn’t help but cough lightly in discomfort.
Meng Yu could be considered his younger brother, and witnessing his brother and his same-sex lover openly expressing affection in front of him was still a bit hard for Guan Yan to accept.
As for Su Han, her emotions were complicated.
Her son had saved Meng Yu’s life, and there had been times when she harbored resentment, almost wishing for Meng Yu’s death because, without him, Guan Miao might still be alive.
However, she also understood that even without Meng Yu, there would be Li Yu, and Zhang Yu, and as long as Guan Miao occupied that position, there would still be hidden threats.
Therefore, Su Han was gradually letting go.
As long as Meng Yu didn’t come to snatch things from her son, she could turn a blind eye.
“When are you leaving?” Shen Xi asked.
“We’ve booked tickets for the day after tomorrow,” Li Zhe replied. “Consider today our farewell. We won’t notify you one by one from now on.”
Guan Lei sighed, “May everything go smoothly!”
Li Zhe smiled in response.
Meng Yu’s gaze fell on Guan Yan and his wife. They quietly locked eyes for a moment, then each gave a graceful smile before heading their separate ways..
