Chapter 600

~7 min read 1,400 words

While Teacher Ke was angry with her "careless" husband, Li Zhongfa was also staring at Li Ye.

"Grandfather, if you want to ask something, just ask! Why do you keep staring at me? It makes me feel flustered."

"Are you trying to ask me how much money I have?"

"Grandfather, say something!"

"..."

"Sigh, Brother Xiao Ye, you've grown up, and Grandfather can't control you anymore, but there are some things I must ask clearly..."

Li Zhongfa finally spoke, "I won't ask how much money you have, but you must tell me the truth about whether that money is really yours."

"..."

Li Ye looked at his grandfather twice in surprise, then said with a smile, "Grandfather, do you think my money is a sugar-coated bullet from an enemy country, specifically sent to infiltrate our mainland and cause destruction?"

"No, no, no,"

Li Zhongfa shook his head and said, "We aren't afraid of sugar-coated bullets; eating them up and wiping them clean is perfectly fine. I mean, is this money yours, or is it your mother's?"

"Grandfather, why would you think of my mother?"

Li Ye smiled first, then said, "Indeed, my mother is helping me manage the money overseas now! But that money is mine, so I have the final say on these hundreds of millions of US dollars."

"Oh, that's no wonder. I was wondering how you could earn so much money! So it turns out you two are partners!"

"..."

Li Ye was stunned for a moment, then said thoughtfully, "Grandfather, what do you mean..."

Li Zhongfa said, "I mean, your money is currently being managed by your mother."

"..."

Li Zhongfa saw Li Ye was somewhat startled, so he lowered his voice and said, "When things are abnormal, there must be demons. You are so young, and you earned so much money in just a few years; it's too eye-catching. And your mother is an overseas Chinese now, which just happens to not follow that 'dedication' set of rules. It's suitable, very suitable."

Li Ye looked at his grandfather in astonishment and couldn't help but say, "Grandfather, you are an old proletarian..."

Li Zhongfa interrupted Li Ye and said calmly, "You say that, but public is public, private is private. Your mother manages the money; she can advance to attack and retreat to defend, and no one can hold any leverage over you."

"..."

Li Ye was stunned for a long time before he had to admire and say, "Grandfather, I thought I was smart enough, but I didn't expect your mind to be even more meticulous than mine."

"What a joke," Li Zhongfa said mockingly, "Do you think I've lived these decades in vain? Human hearts are hard to measure. You brat are smart, but there is still a lot for you to learn!

Learn more from your mother-in-law in the future. If you can really learn seven or eight tenths of her ability, your future achievements will be limitless."

"Is she that amazing?"

"Yes, she is that amazing."

Li Ye blinked and suddenly smiled, "Grandfather, I don't really want to learn! Just let Xiao Yu learn."

"..."

Li Zhongfa stared at Li Ye for a while, then said angrily, "This laziness of yours is exactly the same as your father's, just relying on your wife... sigh, forget it, you're a little better than your father."

"Hahahaha~"

Li Ye laughed heartily. Although Li Ye didn't know what the previous Hearing Fu Guiru was like, judging from the current situation, Hearing Fu Guiru was indeed shrewd and capable, much better than Li Kaijian by a billionth.

"Alright, stop laughing," Li Zhongfa calmed down and asked Li Ye, "Does Teacher Ke know about your mother's situation?"

Li Ye pondered for a moment and said, "Xiao Yu knows. I don't know if she told her parents."

Li Zhongfa shook his head and said, "That won't do. I have to go and tell them face-to-face tomorrow."

Li Ye was silent for a moment, then slowly lowered his head and said, "No matter what you think, I believe my mother is absolutely reliable."

Li Zhongfa immediately said, "Don't I know what kind of person your mother is? Do I need you to tell me? Don't worry!"

Early the next morning, Teacher Ke and Wen Qingsheng had just gotten up when they heard a knock on the door.

After opening the door, Li Zhongfa said with a serious face, "I have something to tell you."

"..."

Although Teacher Ke and Wen Qingsheng had investigated Li Ye's family situation, the eighties were not the information age of later generations, where you could find out what color underwear someone liked to wear.

So when Li Zhongfa told them about Hearing Fu Guiru, Teacher Ke and Wen Qingsheng were still very surprised.

Li Zhongfa said in a deep voice, "To be honest, our family situation might be despised in terms of the children's marriage.

The two children have always liked each other, and we were also a bit worried and conflicted, dragging it out until now without telling you clearly. So I am apologizing to you today; if you want to blame someone, blame us elders, don't blame the children..."

As soon as Li Zhongfa finished speaking, Wen Qingsheng became anxious: "Old Uncle Li, you must not say such things. We are all people who have experienced that storm; don't we understand the difficulties in this? It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter!"

Teacher Ke also said with a smile, "I have also been wondering! How could Li Ye come up with so much money? So it turns out it was his mother's help!"

Li Zhongfa waved his hand and said, "I asked Li Ye about this. Although his mother is indeed managing the money now, the money is actually Li Ye's own, and Li Ye has the final say."

Teacher Ke smiled again and said, "Hey, we all understand. Mother manages the money and the son spends it; that's perfectly normal."

"Hahahaha, oh, it's great that you can understand. Brother Xiao Ye and I were worried for half the night..."

"..."

Li Zhongfa exchanged a glance with Teacher Ke, and they couldn't help but laugh heartily, reaching a tacit understanding inadvertently.

Teacher Ke said with a smile, "Tell Li Ye that we don't mind such things. Besides, if Li Ye's mother needs help, just speak up. We are all one family, don't be polite."

"Good, good, good, I will definitely tell her. She might be worried about this too! After all, she likes Xiao Yu very much..."

After Li Zhongfa left, Wen Qingsheng said to Teacher Ke, "Look, didn't I say you were just overthinking? With such a big business, how could Li Ye not have reliable people to help him steer the ship?"

Teacher Ke nodded slowly and said, "This is the right way! It's somewhat unexpected, but it's also within reason. Li Ye's game of chess is not small!"

In the hearts of Teacher Ke and Wen Qingsheng, the matter of Li Ye possessing a large amount of US dollars was considered completely closed.

Wen Qingsheng smiled and said, "No matter how capable he is, didn't he fall into our Xiao Yu's hands? So, you are the one who is one move ahead! How did you see Li Ye's extraordinary nature back then in Qingshui County?"

Teacher Ke said very dissatisfied, "What are you talking about! Xiao Yu and Li Ye are fate, fate. I didn't interfere."

Wen Qingsheng was full of sarcasm: "Forget it! You not stopping them was the biggest interference. Don't I know you? That Ning Pingping, didn't you block her outside the door?"

Teacher Ke was finally angry: "I shouldn't have cared. I should have let you two father and son make me angry to death. I am truly convinced by you Wen people..."

"..."

Although the argument between Teacher Ke and Wen Qingsheng was not loud, it still attracted Watching Wen Leyu.

"Mom, what are you and Dad arguing about?"

"Hmph, nothing to do, just arguing for fun."

Watching Wen Leyu was stunned for a moment, then nodded in agreement and said, "Li Ye said that couples occasionally arguing can enhance their relationship."

"..."

Teacher Ke asked with a smile, "Then do you and Li Ye argue often?"

Watching Wen Leyu's face turned red, and she said reproachfully, "We aren't at the stage of arguing yet!"

"Hahahaha~"
