Chapter 147: Keep That Mouth of Yours Shut

Translator: End less Fantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Li Jin regarded his younger son with a cool demeanor and remarked, “You’re still young, you should keep that mouth of yours shut.”

Li Sheng reluctantly nodded and said, “Alright, I’ll be quiet.”

“How could she be considered a good girl when she used to work in that kind of place?” Wang Ying said angrily.

Li Yan immediately defended, “Bai Xue was just a waitress, not a hostess, Mom. Please don’t make baseless assumptions!”

Li Sheng immediately raised his hand, wanting to express his opinion.

Old Master Li looked at Li Sheng’s comical expression, furrowed his brows and asked, “Li Sheng, what do you want to say?”

Li Sheng glanced cautiously at Li Yan and then spoke, “My classmate mentioned that they’ve seen Bai Xue working as a hostess. That’s why 1 didn’t want to interact with her. Brother, even if Ling’er isn’t a perfect match, you shouldn’t choose Bai Xue.”

Wang Ying stood up and smacked Li Sheng on the cheek, scolding him, “You’re the one who wants to speak up now? Your brother is facing defeat, what good does your input do? You two brothers should stick together instead of tearing each other down, do you understand?”

Li Sheng, feeling unjustly treated, said, “Mom, it’s happening now. My brother is ruining the peace in our family for Bai Xue.”

When Wang Ying heard this, her eyes welled up with tears at those words. She sighed and said, “It’s all my fault for not raising my sons well.”

“Wang Ying, what are you doing?” Li Jin asked with heartache.

Wang Ying sighed and said, “I genuinely believe Bai Xue isn’t the right person for Li Yan. 1 don’t know why, but now that Ling’er has presented the evidence, it’s breaking my heart.”

Li Jin reassured her, “Alright, calm down. It’s not that big of a deal.”

Wang Ying shot Li Jin an angry glare and said, “Not that big of a deal? It’s all your fault. You let Li Yan make all the decisions, and now he’s chosen such a shameless woman, where can I turn for justice?”

Li Jin suddenly felt a pang of guilt. Their eldest son had always been strong-willed from a young age, and as a result, they hadn’t interfered much in his decisions. Li Yan had become too self-reliant, and they hadn’t taken the time to understand the kind of girl Bai Xue really was.

In the good old days, it was Grandpa who made the decisions, arranging the engagement with the Jiang family. Li Jin was initially against it, not wanting his eldest son to be bound, but in the end, he hadn’t resisted Grandpa and had chosen to remain oblivious.

Li Jin had never been fond of Jiang Ling’er, believing that her intelligence didn’t match up to Li Yan’s. However, the woman Li Yan had chosen now was even more shameless.

Thinking about all of this left Li Jin feeling quite distressed.

Li Jin looked at Wang Ying and reassured her, “Don’t be too upset. That shameless woman is his choice, not ours.”

He then looked at Li Yan and let out a soft sigh. “Li Yan, we may disagree with your feelings for Bai Xue, but our objections are pointless. It’s ultimately your decision.”

Li Yan remained silent, a stark contrast to how he would have reacted in the past. Today, he was unsure of what to say.

Seeing his son’s silence, Li Jin continued, “If it turns out well, it means you have good judgment. If not, you’ll have to face the consequences. 1 won’t say much more. In any case, it’s your call.”

Wang Ying was taken aback by Li Jin’s stance. She looked at him and said, “Li Jin, are you really not going to care about this?”

She turned to Old Master Li, tears streaming down her face, and implored, “Dad, you have to intervene. This is your grandson we’re talking about!”

Even Old Master Li was feeling frustrated. After a moment of contemplation, he said, “Wang Ying, since Li Jin feels this way, let Li Yan make his own decision!”

Ying Wang couldn’t believe it. She was furious and exclaimed, “Dad, how can you just let this go? Bai Xue is deceitful, and even before entering our family, she’s created a rift between the Jiang and Li families. She’s clouded your grandson’s judgment. If we don’t do anything, are we going to lose all dignity in the Li family?”

How could Old Master Li not know about this? But he replied, “Wang Ying, the child is grown up now. Let him make his own choices. I can’t intervene, and you shouldn’t either. We shouldn’t ruin the mother-son relationship over such a shameless woman.”

Wang Ying felt deeply disappointed. Her relationship with her son had grown increasingly distant since he got involved with Bai Xue, and he often showed disrespect. She couldn’t help but feel sorrowful about it. In such circumstances, what was the point of getting worked up?

Li Jin handed Wang Ying a tissue.

She wiped away her tears with the tissue, let out a sigh, and wanted to say something, but the words wouldn’t come. She didn’t know what to say anymore, and the conversation had come full circle with the same few phrases being repeated..
