Chapter 151: I
Ever since Li Xiao's mother found out that Lin Biqi was pregnant with Li Xiao's child, she had been restless all day.
Other things aside, the old man of the Lin family had a very good relationship with her father. If her father really felt compassion for the Lin family and wanted to stuff Lin Biqi to her son, she could not accept it no matter what.
Even if she had the affection of watching Lin Biqi grow up, when it involved her son, her and Li Wanchang's thoughts were the same: the Lin family's status did not reach the threshold of the Li family.
What's more, using pregnancy as a means to climb up really felt disgusting, as if she had eaten a fly.
"Husband, you give me an idea on this matter. I really don't know how to open this mouth to Qiqi."
Before going to bed that night, Mrs. Li was still struggling with this matter, just wanting Li Wanchang to make a decision quickly so she could send Lin Biqi away.
Lest there be long nights and many dreams, if it drags on and the belly gets big, this matter will be even harder to handle.
Li Wanchang's attention these two days had been on the plot of land he missed. He sent people to check the identity of the bidder that day, but the other party applied for identity encryption, and the information would be hidden and kept confidential by the Real Estate Trading Center for three months.
This is a privilege possessed by individual bidders, generally to protect the identity information of individual bidders from being leaked immediately after the auction.
Li Wanchang found connections, but no one was willing to make a mistake in this link. Leaking the identity of an individual bidder during the encryption period violates the "Land Transaction Law" regulations, and the encryption period is actually only three months. At that time, the identity of the individual bidder will naturally be disclosed in the relevant procedures, and Li Wanchang will naturally know then.
So it's just a matter of time. Everyone advised Li Wanchang to wait a little longer. When the encryption period ends, he will naturally know.
"Have you confirmed it?" Li Wanchang put down his phone and asked with some irritability.
Mrs. Li thought seriously: "I don't think Shen Ci has any reason to bluff me with such things. This kind of lie is easily exposed, so it is highly likely to be true. And Qiqi's state when eating at home that day was very strange. I thought about it, and it is really very possible."
Li Wanchang frowned and thought for a while before saying: "You watched her grow up. Perhaps if you persuade her with reason and emotion, it will be effective. Just say that she and Xiao Zai are still young, and pregnancy now has no benefits for them. In short, persuade her to have an abortion first, and you can give her some compensation later."
Mrs. Li was about to speak when Li Wanchang's phone rang again. He answered hurriedly: "How is it? Have you found out?"
The next second his face sank, which showed that the result on the other end of the phone was not good.
"I know." After speaking, he hung up the phone again.
Seeing this, Mrs. Li swallowed the words she was about to say and changed the subject: "Haven't found out yet?"
"The wind is very tight. After all, the other party's identity will be open and transparent after three months. No one is willing to take the risk of breaking the law to help me with a favor that will give me an answer in time."
"What about surveillance? Can't surveillance find it either?"
"She is wearing a large pair of sunglasses covering half her face." Li Wanchang shook his head.
Mrs. Li didn't know much about the group's affairs and just said: "Then don't think about it. The land is already someone else's. What can you do if you find out?"
Li Wanchang snorted coldly: "I suspect someone is making trouble in the middle. I will always find out the person behind it."
Mrs. Li pursed her lips silently upon hearing this and said nothing more.
The next day, she made an appointment with Lin Biqi for afternoon tea.
In a high-end open-air restaurant in Central, Lin Biqi changed her decadent state of the past few days and put on exquisite makeup to attend the appointment. However, despite this, the haggardness in her expression could still be clearly seen.
Upon meeting, Mrs. Li asked with concern: "Qiqi, why is your complexion so bad? Didn't you rest well?"
Who knew that after Lin Biqi shook her head gently, she went straight to the point: "Auntie, I'm pregnant, it's Li Xiao's!"
Her sudden, unprovoked confession completely stunned Mrs. Li. Her expression stalled, and she looked at Lin Biqi with shock, forgetting to react for a moment.
Originally, she was still considering how to open the topic.
But Lin Biqi smiled faintly and continued: "Li Xiao got drunk at the bar that day. You were worried and let me take care of him, and this happened."
Mrs. Li came to her senses and asked with an unnatural face: "You went to the hospital to check, right?"
Lin Biqi nodded.
"Qiqi, you and Xiao Zai are still in university, you..."
"Auntie, you don't need to tell me these things. I know you won't agree to let me give birth to this child." Lin Biqi interrupted the other party, opened the bag beside her very calmly, took out two sheets of paper from inside, and handed them to Mrs. Li: "I have aborted the child, you can rest assured."
Mrs. Li reached out and took them suspiciously. When she saw the content on the sheets, the heart that was hanging was finally let go.
"You child, such an important matter, you should have let Auntie accompany you." She looked at Lin Biqi, and these words had three parts of heartache and sincerity.
"I will bear and solve the mistakes I made myself. Auntie, I never thought about causing trouble for you and the Li family. This was an accident."
Mrs. Li felt more and more guilty.
"Qiqi, this is not your mistake alone, Xiao Zai also has responsibility. Auntie will compensate you." She said, showing an unbearable look in her eyes, but thinking of her son, she had to ask: "But Auntie still wants to ask you one thing, can you not let Xiao Zai know about this?"
Before Lin Biqi could express her position, Mrs. Li continued with grief: "He has been in a very bad state these days. I really don't want him to waste his energy on these things anymore. Can you understand Auntie?"
"Of course, Auntie, you watched me grow up, I naturally feel sorry for you." Lin Biqi nodded gently, without showing any resistance.
Mrs. Li was very pleased upon seeing this. Qiqi was still as sensible as when she was a child.
She looked at the iced juice in front of her and hurriedly expressed concern: "Auntie will change you a pot of hot fruit tea. Your body has lost blood and is afraid of the cold."
"I will buy you some good supplements later. You must take good care of your body, do you know?"
Lin Biqi still nodded obediently: "I know, thank you, Auntie. I won't drink hot tea. I will make an appointment with Auntie to chat when my body is better. I will go back first today."
As she said this, she stood up and picked up her bag. Mrs. Li hurriedly said: "I will let the driver take you?"
"No trouble, goodbye, Auntie."
Lin Biqi said goodbye to her with a quiet look, but her expression changed suddenly when she turned around, her eyes filled with gloom and ruthlessness, as if she had changed into a different person.
