"Seeing as you're here so late to see Third Master, something must have happened, right? Can you tell me about it?" Leng Rushuang walked ahead. Although she hadn't spent much time with Li Se, she understood his personality to some extent. If it weren't for something important, he wouldn't have come this late, considering it was past midnight.
"It's not a big deal, the Li family wants to kill me, so I want to retaliate. I'm just giving you a heads-up," Li Se said casually.
Upon hearing this, Leng Rushuang's expression changed slightly. "You mean the Li family?"
"Oh, right, this matter needs to be kept a secret," Li Se said with a faint smile.
Leng Rushuang gasped. She knew Li Se was Third Master's son and a member of the Li family. Yet, the Li family wanted to kill Li Se. She quickly understood the reason and said with some anger, "The Li family has gone too far!"
They chatted as they walked, and soon arrived at Third Master's room. After Li Se entered, he closed the door. Since Li Shengjun was being treated by Li Se, the room carried a strong scent of traditional Chinese medicine.
After this period of treatment, Li Shengjun had basically recovered, but he was still unable to perform any strenuous activities.
"I heard from Rushuang that you were coming. This surprises me."
Li Shengjun sat by the bed, looking at Li Se with some astonishment, as the time was indeed very late.
"Third Master... I'll continue to call you Third Master." Li Se still couldn't bring himself to call him 'father'. After all, having only met this so-called father after twenty-odd years, he simply couldn't.
"It's fine, it's just a title," Li Shengjun smiled, not seeming to mind.
"I'll get straight to the point, as it's very late," Li Se said, sighing lightly as he looked at Li Shengjun. "If one day, I fall out with the Li family, what would you do?"
Li Shengjun's pupils contracted sharply upon hearing this. "Why do you suddenly say that?"
"Someone in the Li family wants to kill me. They started targeting me when I was in Qingyun City. My goal is simple: they don't want me to come to the capital, nor do they want me to enter the Li family. In fact, my main purpose for coming to the capital wasn't to join the Li family. I never intended to join the Li family from the beginning. But since they're pushing me so hard, I won't hold back. Once I find out who wants to kill me, I will definitely make them pay!" Li Se said the last sentence word by word.
Li Se had always tried to avoid trouble, but he was never afraid of it. If someone dared to attack him, he would definitely retaliate, even if it was the Li family.
The Li family wanted to kill him, so Li Se would show no mercy. He came this time merely to give Li Shengjun a heads-up. No matter what, Li Shengjun was his father, and some things couldn't be changed.
Li Shengjun fell silent, his expression turning grim. He took a deep breath and said, "Leave this matter to me. You don't get involved. I will give you an explanation!"
"No need," Li Se shook his head. "The reason I'm here is just to give you a heads-up. Regardless, you are the person your mother loved most. I will handle it in my own way. No matter who it is, I will definitely make them pay!"
"Child, trust me, I will handle this properly and give you a satisfactory result..." Li Shengjun's face showed a hint of pain. One was his family, the other was his son. He had truly never imagined that family and son would be irreconcilable.
No, he should have realized this sooner. How could the Li family possibly accept Li Se?
But Li Se still shook his head, "Don't worry, I will only target the person in the Li family who wants to kill me. I won't vent my anger on others. Besides, with the current state of the Li family, even if I wanted to vent my anger, I wouldn't be their match."
Sensing Li Se's determination, Li Shengjun didn't say anything further, but a coldness flickered in his eyes.
This was his own son. If Li Se hadn't come today, he probably wouldn't have known such a thing had happened.
Li Se left the military sanatorium around four in the morning. He essentially didn't sleep that night. As for how Li Shengjun would handle it, whether he would go and confront the Li family or continue to stay in the sanatorium, Li Se's purpose in coming was simply to avoid making things difficult for him later.
Time quickly passed until dawn. Although he hadn't slept all night, Li Se was still incredibly energetic, even going for a run in a park.
"What are you doing here?"
A surprised voice rang out.
Upon hearing the voice, Li Se frowned and turned his head. It was indeed Tang Rou. What bad luck to run into this woman here.
Today, Tang Rou was wearing a short-sleeved shirt and shorts, looking incredibly pure. Her beautiful face seemed to be bare of makeup, yet even so, she was still refined and elegant.
Tang Rou's appearance was destined to be the center of attention in the park. Many morning runners couldn't help but cast glances at her, especially her long, fair legs, which indeed gave one the urge to reach out and touch them.
Li Se didn't want to engage with the woman and continued his run.
But Tang Rou was not willing to let Li Se go so easily. She caught up and said, "What, afraid to look at me?"
"You're sick!" Li Se really didn't want to bother with her. This woman had hoped he would be beaten to death when she saw him fighting Xiang Ding Tian earlier. Now she was pestering him. Sometimes, he truly didn't know what this woman was thinking.
Despite Tang Rou's pure appearance, she was a pervert, a complete pervert.
Li Se, being a traditional Chinese medicine practitioner, guessed that Tang Rou had psychological issues. The fact that she insisted on sleeping with him to get revenge on Tang Xi was enough evidence.
After all, she was the eldest daughter of the Tang family. She had many ways to get revenge, yet she chose such an extreme method.
"Yes, I am sick. You're a doctor, why don't you treat me? We can go to a hotel to get treated, and you can decide what poses I should be in for the treatment." Tang Rou's words were full of seduction.
An ordinary man might not have been able to resist. The main reason was Tang Rou's alluring face as she said those words.
Li Se's face darkened. Here we go again. Was this woman determined not to stop until she had ruined her body? He took a deep breath and said, "Tang Rou, you just want to get revenge on Tang Xi. There's no need to use this method. There are many ways, why use this one?"
Tang Rou chuckled, "I'm not trying to get revenge. It's because I've discovered I like you. I want to go to a hotel with you. Is there a problem with that?"
