After Divorcing, She Shocked the World

Chapter 124: Causing Trouble at the Li Family’s House

Wu Mei drew the curtains to hide herself. She warily glanced at the Li family’s collateral branches that were surrounding the courtyard. There were a few unfamiliar faces.

Her brows knitted together and she dialed K’s number hesitantly. She hurriedly explained the situation to him before nodding at the butler to indicate that she would go out and meet that group of people.

Wu Mei comforted Old Master Li, “Don’t worry. With me around, they can forget about stirring up any trouble!”

In front of the villa, Li Nanchen’s uncle, Li Yanghong, was arranging his tie as he stood at the centre of the Li family’s collateral branch. He snuffed out his cigarette and threw it on the ground. He shouted to the bodyguards who were blocking their way, “Who do you think you are? We’re from the Li family. What right do you have to stop us? There must be something fishy going on!”

“Now that Nanchen is dead, the Corporation is in chaos. Someone has to step in and hold down the fort!”

“With Old Master Li’s body, he won’t be able to take charge. It should be us, this group of Li Family members, who take charge. Let’s rush in right now and find Old Master Li to demand an explanation and get him to agree… If anyone stops us again, we’ll crush…”

Li Yanghong incited the Li family’s relatives. Just as they were about to break through the guardrail, Wu Mei walked out of the villa.

She was dressed in black and stared at Li Yanghong with contempt and indifference on her pretty face. She said calmly, “Any Tom, Dick, or Harry can bark arrogantly in the Li family now! Today, I’ll see who dares to take a step forward!”

Wu Mei’s aura was extremely strong, shocking Li Yanghong and the others. They sized her up curiously and said, “You’re Wu Mei? Didn’t you divorce Nanchen?”

“What has the Li Corporation’s affairs got to do with you? It’s not your place to criticize us!”

Wu Mei lowered her head and fiddled with her leather gloves. Her lips curled up into a sneer as she glanced at all of them who had their own motives. “What has the Li Corporation got to do with all of you?”

“I almost forgot. Those who live off the Li Corporation’s year-end bonus will definitely be very worried about what will happen if the corporation collapses, right?”

“You want to be in power? Do you even have what it takes? I see that the Li Corporation’s security department is still short of a few people. Why don’t you guys apply for the job?”

Wu Mei’s ridicule made Li Yanghong’s expression turn awful. She was extremely familiar with the Li family’s affairs and the situation reached a stalemate.

In the villa, Old Master Li was worried that Wu Mei would be bullied by the people outside. He quickly instructed the butler to push him out on the wheelchair…

When Li Yanghong saw him, he immediately pretended to be concerned and wanted to rush over. However, Wu Mei raised her hand and stopped him from going any further.

He glared fiercely at Wu Mei and said loudly, “Old Master, we’re all here to visit you. Our condolences on Nanchen. We all know that you value him the most. However, he can’t be revived. Someone has to step in and take control of the situation in the company!”

“We’re all members of the Li family, so we’re absolutely safe. Why don’t you express your stand today and inform the board of directors to hand the position of Executive President to me? The company’s stock price is already out of control. If we delay any further, I’m afraid the company will be in danger!”

Li Yanghong’s tone was laced with threat as he looked at Old Master Li and said, “We’re the ones who are family!”

Sitting in the wheelchair, Old Master Li saw through their ploy that was hidden beneath their concern. He cleared his throat and said in a strong voice, “Since the company is short of people to manage the situation, I hereby announce that everything will be handed over to Wu Mei to deal with. Be it Nanchen’s funeral or the company, it will be up to her to…”

“You’re crazy! Are you stupid? You actually handed the family business to an outsider!”

“Do you know who she is? Maybe she’s the reason why Nanchen became like this today!”

“Staying by your side is part of her plan. She definitely has an ulterior motive! If you continue to be incited by her, sooner or later, you will also be killed by her…” Li Yanghong said agitatedly while pointing at Wu Mei.

Wu Mei looked at him coldly and pretended not to care as she took two steps forward. Li Yanghong’s movements were so big that he poked her forehead…

A smug smile appeared on her face. She held Li Yanghong’s fingers and twisted them till he wailed in agony. “You were the one who attacked me first. They were all watching.”

“They can help me prove that I was purely defending myself!”

Wu Mei lifted her leg and kicked Li Yanghong to the ground. Seeing him like this, the Li Family’s relatives got agitated and wanted to surround Wu Mei and try to attack her…

The bodyguards rushed over to protect Wu Mei. Both sides were tense and any slight movements would cause them to fight.

“Stop!”

The Police Chief shouted and K fired a shot into the sky, scaring the Li Family’s collateral branch into making way for them.

Wu Mei looked at K and silently shifted her gaze away…
